Chapter 364: Chapter 363: The Barbecue Shop Has Opened Branches Even Here?_1
Lu Yang couldn’t help but recall the excitement he felt when he first became a disciple.
Back then, he knew nothing about the Cultivation World. When he found out that he was a Sword Spirit Root and could become a disciple of the Sect Leader of Seek Dao Sect, he stayed awake excitedly for the entire night.
As time went on and he learned more about the Seek Dao Sect, he realized that his master was a major troublemaker.
Not only did his Master refuse to earnestly cultivate, being punished with confinement by the Eldest Senior Sister, he also had numerous enemies.
When Lu Yang heard that officials in the Imperial City had a tradition of forming alliances, he thought it was determined according to one’s hometown, forming private alliances within a township.
But Meng Jingzhou explained that it was determined by whether or not one held a grudge against Daoist Buyu.
Lu Yang could not fathom just how capable his Master was to have provoked so many people.
Did he slap everyone when he took the Imperial Examination?
Lu Yang had hoped that officials in the Imperial City would regard the Five Great Immortal Sects as enemies, they surely wouldn’t have a grudge against his master too?
Now it seems he was overly optimistic.
Compared to them, the Eldest Senior Sister was more reliable. She was stunningly beautiful, taught him cultivation, and would lend a hand in times of life-and-death danger.
“By that standard, don’t I also qualify as reliable?” Fairy Eternity’s face lit up in delight, feeling that Lu Yang was becoming more and more reasonable.
She, one of the top ten beauties of ancient times, was impeccably beautiful, someone who could match Yun Zhi in beauty.
She had also taught Lu Yang magic skills and how to craft the Invincible Elixir, establishing Lu Yang’s reputation.
When Lu Yang was being possessed, she stepped in to help and ensured Lu Yan’s safety.
All the conditions were met!

Lu Yang gave Fairy Eternity a gloomy look, ignoring the fact that he’d been beaten up by his Senior Brothers and Sisters.
…
Yan Tianzhi felt that his earlier words were ambiguous, making it seem like he and Lu Yang were mortal enemies. After some thought, he decided to express his goodwill and added, “Master, I, and your, sect, Grand Elder, have a very, good relationship. We often, communicate.”
“Really?” Lan Ting and Bai Ming were surprised.
Lu Yang looked peculiar, wondering what kind of ‘communication’ was going on. Were they discussing which coffin was the most comfortable to lay in?
Wanting to explain further but finding it too challenging, Yan Tianzhi decided to show them something while they were waiting for their dishes. He pulled out a roll of paper from his Identity Jade and spread it out on the table.
The paper was covered with rectangles interconnected to form a honeycomb-like pattern.
The more Lu Yang looked at it, the more it resembled the layout of a three-bedroom apartment.
“This is, the coffin, they, designed. They said, it’s, comfortable, to sleep in.”
“Moreover, you can, carry it, around. If you can’t find, a place, to stay, you can, sleep in it.”
Lu Yang: “…”
So, Grand Elder, you’ve handed over the Task Hall affairs to Elder Brother Dai, and you’re spending your days designing coffins?
Does Elder Brother Dai know about this?
At that moment, the waiter shouted, “The dishes are ready, could you please make some room?”
Upon hearing this, Yan Tianzhi put away the paper, and delicious dishes were served on the table one after another.
Lu Yang didn’t recognize any of the dishes, but from their aroma, they were definitely top-notch.
Bai Ming said, “Please, enjoy. The governor has covered all our food and accommodations during the celebration.”
Lu Yang laughed, raising his teacup, “To the governor.”
“To the governor.”
“To the governor.”
Everyone clinked glasses and began to eat.
During the meal, Lan Ting asked, “By the way, there will be a Vision Appraisal Meeting later, are you interested in joining?”
“What is the Vision Appraisal Meeting?”
“It’s held by the Land Money Trade Association. They will display various strange and curious items. Whoever can identify the history of the items gets to keep them.”
“The items aren’t very valuable, it’s just for fun.”
“Sounds interesting, I’ll go.” Lu Yang was the first to respond.
“Count me in.” Meng Jingzhou was next.
Bai Ming thought for a moment, since the task assigned by the governor was already completed, participating in the activity would be nice.
“I’ll go too.”
“Go.” Yan Tianzhi said succinctly.
All five of them wished to join the Vision Appraisal Meeting for the experience. Their eating speed naturally quickened and not long after, they finished their meals.
As they left the restaurant, Meng Jingzhou nudged Lu Yang’s arm, gesturing for him to look in a certain direction.
Following Meng Jingzhou’s direction, Lu Yang saw a bustling barbecue shop with a queue that stretched out into the street.
The barbecue shop was named “Try Again BBQ”.
A small line written at the lower right corner of the shop sign read: Temporary Branch Store for Qingzhou Celebration.
“Is the demonic sect so quick in setting up shops? They’ve even set up a shop here?” Meng Jingzhou asked through a voice transmission.
Lu Yang shook his head, “I don’t think so. It’s been less than a month, it’s not possible to set up shops everywhere. We didn’t even provide them with enough start-up funds. They are probably here to advertise during the Qingzhou celebration.”
Noticing the unusual behavior of Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, Bai Ming chuckled, “Do you guys have an interest in this barbecue shop? Lan Ting was not here last night. Tianzhi and I ate here, the shopkeeper claimed their cooking skills were inherited from ancient times, even boasting that they were a three hundred thousand-year-old establishment.”
“Whether it’s true or not, the taste was indeed top-tier. Their skewers are the best I’ve ever had.”
Yan Tianzhi nodded in agreement with the taste of the BBQ shop.
Lu Yang thought to himself, members of your demonic sect sure know how to bluff, claiming to be a three hundred thousand-year-old establishment. Why don’t you claim that your cooking fire has been burning for three hundred thousand years?
However, the fact that their cooking skills were inherited from ancient times was not a lie, since the basic recipe for BBQ was provided by Man Gu.
“Should we go for a meal after the Vision Appraisal Meeting ends?” Bai Ming asked.
“Never mind, we just found the name of this BBQ shop interesting.” There was no need for Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou to eat here. Their BBQ was the most authentic.
Lan Ting took notice of the BBQ shop’s name. She was one of the second batch of employees at the original BBQ shop, who had been there since the very beginning.
The first batch were ghouls.
With identical names and exceptionally delicious food, was it a coincidence?
Worried that there might be some hidden significance, she sent a voice transmission to Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, “Is this BBQ shop related to you in any way?”
Being so insightful, Lan Ting was impossible to deceive. Lu Yang then confessed, “There’s some hidden information. Don’t reveal it. You never know, there might be a spy from the demonic sect in your Fairy Palace.”
Upon hearing the term ‘demonic sect’, Lan Ting realized the seriousness of the matter and promised, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone, even my Master.”
Relieved, Lu Yang explained, “With the tireless efforts of Meng Jingzhou and myself, we improved the taste of the skewers. With the completion of the Automatic Skewer Formation and the automatic BBQ rack, we’ve met the requirements to open a chain store. To prevent the demonic sect from wreaking havoc everywhere, we, the Seek Dao Sect, collaborated with the demonic sect. We plan to open Try Again BBQ shops all over the continent, currently in the initial stage.”
“Of course, the name of Seek Dao Sect wasn’t used in the collaboration with the demonic sect.”
Lan Ting: “…”
The Eternity Sect had just been extinguished a few months ago, and now you, the Seek Dao Sect, are targeting the demonic sect?
Even though exorcising demons and eliminating evil is the duty of our righteous path, your efficiency is impressively high.
How long do you plan to take to eliminate the demonic sect this time?
One month or two?
