Family Cultivation: I Am the Guardian Beast of the Clan

Chapter 48: The Recipe For Cooking Xuejiao Is Fragrant!

"Three breaths have passed," Lin Xunxian said calmly, without answering Master Jinfeng's question. With a sweep of his spiritual energy, he brought Xuejiao and Master Jinfeng's storage rings to his side and put them away casually. Then, he turned and, with Lin Huaishu and Lin Xiong in tow, left the valley.

On the way, Lin Xunxian watched the two deep in thought and shook his head with a smile.

"You two, don't overthink it. In a family as large as ours, everyone has their own methods and secrets. The Patriarch, Second Uncle, and Third Uncle haven't said anything about it. Besides, now that we have Xuejiao, Grand Ancestor has another reason to like you, and the others won't dare to say anything against you."

Hearing this, Lin Huaishu and Lin Xiong relaxed after confirming that their family supported their actions. In fact, they began to feel concerned about the recent events.

"Cousin Xunxian, that sword technique you used to defeat Master Jinfeng earlier was amazing. Is that your self-created 'Nine Strikes of Annihilation'?" Lin Xiong asked curiously.

Lin Huaishu also turned his gaze toward Lin Xunxian. Lin Xunxian shook his head with a hint of disdain. "To deal with him, I didn't need the 'Nine Strikes of Annihilation.' The sword technique I used just now is called 'Dawn Break,' and it's part of the Purple Heaven Sword Manual."

Lin Huaishu and Lin Xiong's eyes glinted with envy when they heard this. They had wanted to practice the Purple Heaven Sword Manual, but Grand Ancestor hadn't passed it on to them. It was clear that their talents weren't up to par, and they were well aware of it.

While the three chatted, they returned to the Lin family's mountain gate within a short time. They descended from above the clouds and walked step by step toward the mountaintop. It was a tradition in the Lin family that, except for urgent or important matters, anyone entering the Azure Heaven Mountain must start from the mountain gate.

By the Azure Heaven Mountain lake, a remarkable fragrance spread visibly and gradually permeated the entire Azure Heaven Mountain. At the lakeside, Lin Xunxian and the others were proficiently grilling meat, using the Xuejiao they had just captured as the primary ingredient.

Lin Ran wasn't around, but this was their first time grilling meat for Grand Ancestor. The Lin family, from top to bottom, knew that Grand Ancestor loved grilled meat. So, almost every Lin family member had learned how to grill meat, just for the day when Grand Ancestor might need it.

Of course, there were some more dedicated Lin family members who had even started secretly learning how to brew spirit wine. In the Lin family, pleasing Grand Ancestor was more effective than gaining any opportunities outside.

"How much longer?"

By the lake, Lin Xuan asked impatiently, his eyes fixed on the grilled Xuejiao meat. He was surprised. He hadn't expected that this realm of cultivating could produce such a mouthwatering delicacy.

He was a Golden Core cultivator, and yet he couldn't control the saliva streaming down from his mouth. It was a testament to the incredible aroma. He could also feel his blood surging and rejoicing within him.

Deep in his soul, an instinctual desire for this Xuejiao meat had ignited. So, he couldn't help but urge.

"This Heavenly Spirit is truly extraordinary." Lin Xuan couldn't help but mutter. In his heart, he also understood that this thing should be able to bring him great benefits.

"Grand Ancestor, it won't be much longer. We're just waiting for the final thirteen types of spirit herbs," Lin Xunxian replied with a sense of urgency. In their vicinity, there were clear signs of a pile of spirit herbs, and there were more than ten empty spirit wine bottles nearby.

Upon returning to the Azure Heaven Mountain, Lin Xunxian and the others had immediately reported the situation to Lin Xiuqi. Lin Xiuqi had quickly mobilized all of the Lin family's resources, gathering information about how to prepare Xuejiao from a fallen and destitute wandering cultivator in the market.

Following that, they had embarked on an urgent mission to collect the hundreds of spirit herbs and dozens of spirit wines required by the recipe. It had taken half a month to gather everything, and today, they were having a lakeside barbecue after adding the final ingredient, a powdered spirit herb, to the Xuejiao meat.

The Xuejiao meat, seven to eight meters long and two meters high, weighing tens of thousands of catties, suddenly emitted an aroma dozens of times more powerful than before, spreading over an area of hundreds of miles. In the entire territory of Renhuai County, at this moment, everyone was shocked by this fragrance.

"What's going on? Where is this incredible scent coming from?"

"God, what is this? I can't control my saliva, it's just pouring out."

"It's Xuejiao meat. I remember a book from ancient texts that said Xuejiao meat is a divine gift. When it's cooked, its fragrance can be sensed by all living beings. The book mentioned the fragrance effect of the lowest level of Qi Condensation Xuejiao meat, and it's exactly like this now."

At this moment, hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in Renhuai County knelt on the ground, unable to resist inhaling the scent. They believed this must be the fragrance of celestial food. While they couldn't taste it, they believed smelling it must have great benefits.

In the nearby Azure Heaven Market, chaos erupted. Over ten thousand cultivators boiled with excitement. They had never expected to come across something as legendary as Xuejiao, and the fact that it had been prepared and was emitting such an enticing aroma was unbelievable.

"Where is this scent coming from? It's so amazing! I'd pay three thousand spirit stones just to taste a mouthful."

Some cultivators couldn't resist and spoke out. Others in the market couldn't contain their curiosity and began to explore the source of the fragrance. Very quickly, everyone pinpointed the direction and looked toward the distant Azure Heaven Mountain. At that moment, everyone fell silent.
