Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 408: Dinner and Trade

After hearing the advice of their two friends, Di Lou and Hour Wen’s faces turned serious. It seems that Wan Yuren and Lin Chiru had heard something from the Sword God about Yue Xuexia. Even though they knew that Yue Xuexia was powerful, they never thought that even the Sword God, who had reached Huashen, warned them to be careful of Yue Xuexia.

Di Lou glanced at Yue Xuexia in front and whispered, "Is she that powerful?"

"The Sword God said she is stronger than he. In a serious battle, there is no way he can defeat her like what happened before," Lin Chiru said.

The four of them are now looking at Yue Xuexia. They followed the rules she told them to comply with and agreed on the herbs they needed and some treasures that are expensive and rare even in the city. The night had descended, and the group decided not to roam around in the dark. It was not only dangerous, but they might get lost. They can only camp near the river.

They made a bonfire and rested. Most of them don’t need to eat, even for Fu Lili, who had the lowest realm, only needing to eat the Bigu Pill to handle her hunger. However, before she ate it, Yue Xuexia stopped her.

Yue Xuexia said, "That thing is not delicious. Let’s make some food. You guys can at least grill food, can’t you?"

The men and Fu Lili nod their heads. Seeing this, Yue Xuexia brought out a few prepared ingredients from her storage ring. It’s a marinated, mutated buffalo beef she bought in the market in the city. It’s at least in the realm of innateness and causes quite a lot of soul stones. However, after exchanging it for some pills, she made the seller of the meat happy to give away a few kilos to her. What she had given was a high-grade Qi Refinement Pill, which is useful even for cultivators at the Jindan realm.

Yue Xuexia said, "Use this grill and cook. Watch over it. Don’t burn it."

"What kind of meat is this?" Fu Lili innocently asked before Mo Jue stopped her.

Of course, Yue Xuexia knew that she was merely interested and didn’t mean much. However, she didn’t mind that question at all and just simply answered.

"Innateness realm mutated buffalo meat," responded Yue Xuexia.

Fu Lili was so shocked that the wooden container in her hand fell. Thankfully, Mo Jue was just beside her and caught it before it was wasted. The other four also sighed in relief and sighed. They almost wasted a delicacy that can greatly increase their power.

"Does this mean I can’t eat much?" Fu Lili pouted.

Yue Xuexia laughed and said, "Don’t worry. It’s something I made. It won’t make you explode. Eat to your heart’s content."

Fu Lili was delighted to hear that the others were shocked. Instead, the ability to cook something that would not harm one’s body and allow the energy in it to be accumulated in the body is something only the God of Cooking is able to do. However, this young lady is also capable of doing so as well. Just how many surprises can she give them?

Yue Xuexia said, "Cook, I will make some mushroom soup from the ones we picked before."

The others wanted to stop her, as those mushrooms are called Rainbow. An 8th-grade treasure that is not only for trading, it also has the ability to increase one’s elemental affinity. It is an elemental treasure anyone would love to have. Moreover, this mushroom is hard to pick. It needs a careful and special way of harvesting. That’s why each of them had successfully plucked one or two. They had watched Yue Xuexia pluck a lot of those mushrooms, and now a quarter of these treasures will end up in their stomachs. They felt that they would be eating money instead of just food.

Yue Xuexia ignored their expressions, and only Fu Lili was anticipating drinking such extravagant soup. However, their mind changed when they started grilling the meat. This meat is also something akin to a jewel in their eyes. As the scent of the cooked meat entered their noses, they couldn’t hold back their stomachs from growling. The scent is simply hard to resist. Especially when they saw the meat on the grill was lightly glowing thanks to its natural oil and all.

GULPS!

The two foodies, Fu Lili and Hou Wen, were even drooling as they watched the meat get cooked over the fire. All of a sudden, Yue Xuexia flicked a white flame, which replaced the ordinary fire. This flame grills the meat faster than under an ordinary fire. Di Lou, of course, noticed the special flame and exclaimed.

Di Lou said, "Ah! Ice Flame! It’s a special kind of fire, Ice Flames! It’s a natal flame that possesses both cold and hot properties. The best kind of fire for Pill Refinement!"

"Miss Yue, I wonder if you can give me a wisp of this flame. I am willing to trade it for an immortal herb of the highest grade!"

"If you have an ice-attributed Immortal Herb of the highest grade, you can take it away after cooking. It will last for a year if you don’t waste it," said Yue Xuexia.

Di Lou was extremely delighted. As a doctor and a pill refiner, a special kind of fire is what they are most obsessed with. This will greatly enhance the results of their pills. Actually, even Hou Wen wanted to ask for some, as he came from a sect that focuses on all kinds of flames. Though this fire is not compatible with him, he can exchange it with the sect and get one that fits him the most. However, unlike the Heavenly Medicine Sect, the Heavenly Flame Sect focuses more on blacksmithing and armament making.

Yue Xuexia noticed Hou Wen’s hesitation and knew that the sect he came from could not bring out a high-grade immortal herb for her. However, she is also an armament refiner; materials that can be used in creating artifacts were welcomed by her as well.

She said, "If you have a material of equal grade, I can trade you this flame as well."

Everyone knew that Yue Xuexia was talking to Hou Wen when she said these words. Hou Wen was delighted upon hearing her words. Touching the storage necklace on his neck, he brought out all kinds of materials he had gathered all his life; even some unknown materials were added to the mix.

Hou Wen said, "These are all the treasures I’ve gathered. If there is something that caught your eye, I will give it to you. Of course, I will ask my master to find me a material that is equal to your flame’s worth."

Everyone was surprised that Hou Wen had brought out all his treasures and presented them to Yue Xuexia. Yue Xuexia, who had just finished making the soup, looked through all the materials on the ground. Even Shen Jueyang was looking through it and noticed a special kind of ore with a galaxy pattern.

Shen Jueyang picked up the material of that ore and immediately told Yue Xuexia.

{Xue’er! Take that black stone with a galaxy pattern. That’s a Star Ore. You can strengthen your domain with it. After all, the sun and moon are also just a kind of star as well. That’s divine-grade material.}

Yue Xuexia controls her qi, allowing only a fist-sized black orb with a beautiful pattern to fly to her hand. Hou Wen was a bit confused as to why she wanted such unknown material.

Hou Wen scratched his head and asked, "You want that? It’s too small to be melted, and it’s no different from junk for me. Even my master said it’s an ordinary ore. Are you sure you like that?"

"Ordinary ore? I guess for people who don’t know it, it is just a useless stone. However, this is a material of a divine grade. It might be useless to you because it is something I need. Alright. This is enough to trade with my natal flame. Hide the rest of your materials," said Yue Xuexia. "Ah, right! My natal flame isn’t a divine grade yet. I will give you this pill as compensation."

She threw a jade jar at him and started serving the soup. Because of this, Hou Wen and others lost interest in the jade jar and stared at the soup of glittering rainbow-colored soup. The grilled meat was also served. Everyone was eating so fast while Yue Xuexia was taking her time to eat. In the end, some of them choked and suffered. The accumulation of energy in their bodies after eating left these guys dumbfounded. In the end, they saluted Yue Xuexia and thanked her for her kindness in sharing such good things with them.

"Thank you for the meal!"

"No problem. I might have a guest tonight, but don’t worry, you know him too well," said Yue Xuexia.

Though everybody was interested in this guest of Yue Xuexia. Since they will be seeing them later, they decided not to ask. They not only completed their herb-gathering mission and got some inheritance and treasures, but they even ate a nice dinner. Such a satisfying day with less danger, thanks to Yue Xuexia being here with them. They are thankful for her.
