I Can See Through All Things Information

Chapter 1139: Chapter 706: Golden Silken Dragon Tooth Rice

”Uncle Zhang?”

When Lu Qing saw the old man’s face, he asked uncertainly.

The old man shuddered, lifted his head, and when he saw Lu Qing, the wooden basin in his hands suddenly fell.

”Is it, is it Ah Qing?”

Uncle Zhang’s eldest son, who was Uncle Zhang himself, looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief.

”It’s me, Uncle Zhang, I’m back.”

Lu Qing stepped forward, gently supporting the old man.

”It truly is Ah Qing who has returned!”

”This old man thought I wouldn’t live to see you back in this lifetime.”

Feeling the warmth from Lu Qing’s hand, the old man realized this wasn’t a dream; Lu Qing had really returned.

Suddenly, he couldn’t help but get teary-eyed.

”I was wondering who was coming every day to clean and tidy up; turns out it was you, Uncle Zhang.”

Lu Qing helped Uncle Zhang walk towards the house.

”This old man has aged, and without the fields to tend to, there’s nothing much to do. I just can’t sit idle, so I come to dust the tables and chairs. With you all gone, I couldn’t let the old house fall into disrepair.”

Uncle Zhang mumbled as he walked.

Lu Qing just listened intently, without telling Uncle Zhang that he had set up an array around the old house, so even after decades or centuries, it wouldn’t fall into ruin.

Once inside, seeing Little Yan and Little Li back, Uncle Zhang was overjoyed.

”Little Yan and Little Li have returned as well. Wonderful, wonderful, everyone is home.”

”Uncle Zhang.”

Little Yan quickly came over to support the old man when she saw him.

”Good, truly good.”

Uncle Zhang looked at Little Yan, showing a satisfied smile.

In the years before Little Yan went to reside at the Holy Mountain, the villagers could all see the changes in Little Yan.

But there was nothing anyone could do about it.

Now seeing Lu Qing back and Little Yan’s spirits lifted, Uncle Zhang felt genuinely gratified.

”And who is this?”

Uncle Zhang asked, momentarily startled by Han Lingshuang’s stunning beauty.

”This is Han Lingshuang, Lord Han, the Palace Master of the Cold Water Palace, one of the Four Great Secret Places,” Lu Qing introduced.

”Greetings, Mr. Zhang.” Han Lingshuang gracefully offered a bow.

She could tell that the elderly man before her was just an ordinary, aged person.

However, seeing Lu Qing and Little Yan’s closeness to him, she dared not be disrespectful.

”Good, good, all good kids.”

Having never ventured beyond Jiuli Village in his lifetime, Uncle Zhang naturally had little understanding of the Four Great Secret Places.

Yet seeing such a beautiful young woman here with Ah Qing and being so well-mannered, he felt a joy from the heart.

Little did he know, Han Lingshuang’s actual age might well surpass his.

In the time that followed, Uncle Zhang began asking Lu Qing where he had been all these years and why he hadn’t returned for so long.

Lu Qing briefly recounted his experiences exploring the stars, leaving the old man somewhat dazed.

He had originally thought that Lu Qing had secluded himself to cultivate in some faraway province.

Never did he imagine that Lu Qing had left this world, venturing into the starry sky above to explore other worlds.

”Ah Qing, you truly are an immortal now, able to travel the stars. No, even the immortals in stories don’t seem to have such great abilities!”

With the old man’s limited knowledge, he couldn’t grasp what such a vista would be like, but he knew that such feats were only achievable by a true immortal.

In contrast, Lu Qing had not visibly aged a day over the years, still looking so young, yet the old man wasn’t surprised.

After all, in the village, Little Yan and the elder doctor’s appearances had likewise remained unchanged.

So everyone knew that when a cultivator reaches a certain level, they could remain youthful in appearance.

”Uncle Zhang, as you’ve said, I’m still quite far from becoming a true immortal,” Lu Qing smiled and replied.

After chatting with Uncle Zhang for a bit, the old man prepared to leave.

”Alright, since Ah Qing, you have company, I won’t disturb you further. By the way, Ah Qing, can I inform the village of your return?”

”Of course,” Lu Qing nodded, ”this time, I plan on staying for quite a long while, not leaving again anytime soon.”

”That’s good, that’s good.”

Uncle Zhang grinned upon hearing this, ”Then I’ll go let everyone know. While you were away all these years, many new generations have grown up in the village. They’ve all grown up hearing tales of you and truly admire you. They’ll all certainly be very happy to know you’ve returned.”

”Uncle Zhang, you arrange it as you see fit.”

After Uncle Zhang left, Little Yan looked at Lu Qing: ”Brother, about Uncle Zhang’s health...”

”It’s alright. I checked earlier, and Uncle Zhang is still in good health. He shouldn’t have any issues living for a few more years. I’ll help him condition his health when I get the chance, and he should be fine.”

While supporting Uncle Zhang earlier, Lu Qing had already quietly assessed his physical condition.

Though the old man was advanced in years, his health was actually quite well, with no major issues.

”That’s good.”

Little Yan sighed in relief.

In the past years, she had seen off quite a few of the village elders.

There were not many familiar elders left in the village.

Uncle Zhang is already considered one of their closest people.

After relaxing, Little Yan suddenly said, ”Brother, what are we eating tonight? I want to eat your cooking.”

”You’re already a Fairy at the Sixth Transition of the Golden Core, and you’re still such a foodie?” Lu Qing laughed.

”But, Little Yan hasn’t eaten the food you cooked for many years,” Little Yan pouted.

”Cooking is not difficult; I happen to have some special ingredients, so I’ll make you some Spirit Food.”

Lu Qing was teasing his sister, so of course, he wouldn’t reject her request.

”Spirit Food?” Little Yan became curious upon hearing this.

Han Lingshuang also showed a curious expression.

”This is a special cooking method developed by cultivators from other cultivation worlds, you’ll know when I make it.”

Immediately, Lu Qing went into the kitchen to start cooking.

Since he was going to make Spirit Food, the original kitchen utensils were naturally unsuitable.

Lu Qing directly took out some Magical Treasure cooking tools that he refined over the years during his free time from the Qiankun Qi Bag and began working.

In less than an hour, he had prepared a table full of delicious dishes.

”Wow, it smells so good!”

Little Yan’s eyes lit up as she caught the aroma of the food.

”Alright, we can get ready to eat now. Little Yan, go and invite Master over here.”

Lu Qing placed another dish on the table.

”Okay!”

Little Yan immediately transformed into a stream of light and flew towards the Half Mountain Small Courtyard.

Before long, she brought the elder doctor over.

”Ah Qing, Little Yan said you made something delicious and insisted I come over,” the elder doctor said with a smile.

”Yes, Disciple learned some quite unique cooking methods outside and got some different ingredients, so I’d like you, Master, to have a taste too.”

Lu Qing invited the elder doctor to the main seat.

”Oh, cooking methods from other worlds? I must see this.” The elder doctor said with interest.

”You all just sit, and I’ll bring the food out, then we can eat.”

Lu Qing went into the kitchen, brought out a big pot, and as he opened the lid, a strange fragrance filled the entire room.

The elder doctor sniffed the lingering fragrance of the rice and suddenly froze, looking towards the pot.

”Ah Qing, this rice...”

He saw that the pot was filled with rice, each grain distinct, each grain about half an inch long, like dragon teeth.

They were crystal clear with strands of golden color, looking extremely beautiful.

More importantly, just by smelling a whiff of the fragrance, he felt his injuries improve slightly.

It’s worth noting that he is currently a cultivator at the Sixth Transition of the Golden Core realm, and just a whiff of the rice fragrance improved his injuries.

One can imagine that this pot of rice Lu Qing made is indeed extraordinary.

”This is rice cooked from a kind of Spirit Rice called Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Rice,” Lu Qing smiled and said, ”This Spirit Rice is quite rare and contains unique spiritual charm, even beneficial to Primordial Spirit Great Powers. I was lucky to get some, so I can share it with everyone.”

In fact, this Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Rice was obtained by Lu Qing from a Storage Magical Treasure of a Primordial Spirit Realm Great Power.

In the Heavenly Origin Great World, Lu Qing had slain many Primordial Spirit and Golden Core cultivators and had raided the treasure vaults of the direct lineage second branch of the Gongsu Family.

The treasures he obtained were countless.

Apart from various Magical Treasure Elixirs and Spirit Stones, there were many other treasures.

Just among the Spirit Rice alone, he obtained more than a dozen different types, and this Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Rice is among the higher grade of Spirit Rice.

”Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Rice, the kind of Spirit Rice beneficial to Primordial Spirit Great Powers?”

The elder doctor and a few others were moved upon hearing this.

Very quickly, Little Yan served the rice to everyone, including the Five Elements and White Flood Dragon.

Of course, these two spiritual beasts reduced their size, otherwise, they wouldn’t have fit inside the house.

Once the rice was served, everyone looked towards the elder doctor.

The elder doctor knew their intentions; with a smile, he picked up his bowl, ”Alright, we’re all family here, no need for formalities, let’s start eating.”

He then took the first bite of Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Rice.

Seeing this, everyone else started picking up their chopsticks.

The elder doctor tasted the Spirit Rice, and with just one chew, he felt a fragrance spreading in his mouth, sweet and delicious.

After swallowing a mouthful, after a few breaths, he felt a peculiar energy rise in his abdomen. It circulated a few rounds through his body, and his injuries that required some time to heal suddenly improved drastically.

On the other side, Little Yan’s situation was similar.

Previously, she used a Secret Technique that drained her origin to forcibly enhance her strength against three Demons.

Now, after eating two bites of Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Spirit Rice, with its rich spiritual charm, the origin she had lost had nearly recovered.

As for Han Lingshuang, there was no need to mention.

She felt that this Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Rice was more miraculous than any spirit pills she had ever consumed.

After just two bites, she felt her cultivation had slightly advanced.

”Master, how is it? This Gold Silk Dragon Tooth Rice is pretty good, right?” the elder doctor asked.

”No wonder it is Spirit Rice favored by Primordial Spirit Great Powers.” The elder doctor sighed, ”Ah Qing, to obtain such a treasure, you must have gone through a lot. Now that we have time, why don’t you tell us about the outside world?”

With these words, Little Yan and Han Lingshuang immediately perked their ears.
