Stealing the female lead's favor turns her from a heartthrob to a universally disliked figure.

"Sure! Are you cold? Would you like me to make you some warming soup?" The Spirit Chef Peak Master asked as he took out a furnace containing sealed earth fire for her.

"Thank you, Senior Uncle. It's not actually that cold on the spirit boat. If you have time, could you teach me how to make the Tranquilizing Gathering? I dug up a lot of hundred-year-old Tranquilizing Grass in the small secret realm."

As she spoke, she took out a large bundle of fresh and vibrant century-old Qingning grass.

The Spirit Chef Peak Master was completely stunned. "This... so much!"

"Yes. I'll give half to my senior master. I've always liked the Qingning dumplings that my senior master makes, but he doesn't make them often."

The Spirit Chef Peak Master laughed heartily, “It’s not that I don’t want to make it, it’s just that there’s too little of the best Qingning Grass. Come, come, we don’t have anything to do today, so I’ll teach you how to make Qingning Dumplings.”

The Qingning dumplings are soft, chewy, and slightly sweet. They calm the mind and relieve irritability. Not only does the little girl love them, but he also loves them!

He immediately took Li Qingqing to his lounge.

His lounge was larger than Li Qingqing's because it had a kitchen.

After taking out his earthen stove and cooking utensils, he explained them one by one.

"To make this Qingning Dumpling, besides extracting high-quality Qingning Grass juice, you also need to use good flawless pure spirit flour to make it perfect. With your dual spiritual roots of water and wood, you are actually very suitable to be a spirit chef..."

Li Qingqing also studied the bishop's knowledge diligently.

She used to like eating Qingning dumplings because they tasted really good, and also because they could suppress her irritability and depression caused by hearing too many voices of the spirits of all things.

She had thought about going there to learn how to make it before, but firstly, she wasn't familiar with the Master of the Spirit Chef Peak, and secondly, the Spirit Chef Peak was too noisy. It wasn't just the people who were noisy; she also found the clanging and banging of the kitchen utensils too noisy.

With a good teacher guiding her, Li Qingqing quickly learned how to make Qingning Tuan.

Seeing that she really liked it, the Spirit Chef Peak Master also gave her a bag of flawless pure spirit flour, some seasonings made from ground spirit plants, and a set of kitchen utensils.

Li Qingqing did not refuse these things. While eating the round and cute Qingning dumplings, she watched as the Spirit Chef Peak Master suddenly came up with the idea of ​​making Yangchun noodles.

"In a place like the icy seas of the Northern Continent, being able to eat a bowl of authentic Spirit Chef's Plain Noodles is a true treat. It not only warms you up but also soothes your heart and stomach. Let's make some now and put them in the temperature-controlled cabinet..."

The Master Chef was very talkative, explaining things to Li Qingqing while he was cooking, showing a strong desire to teach.

Li Qingqing listened while eating, nodding occasionally and asking a few questions now and then, like a well-behaved and studious disciple.

Outside the spirit boat, after waiting all day without seeing the remaining disciples return, Elder Wu had them board the spirit boat and head to the place where the Gate of the Divine Ruins was about to open on the other side of the Northern Continent's icy sea.

This time, during the trip to the small secret realm, 87 disciples of the sect were killed or wounded.

Although they were both in the same icy sea, it took the spirit boat almost a day to reach the place where Fu Changye and the others were waiting.

Li Qingqing spent a day learning how to cook spirit food from the Spirit Chef Peak Master. When she arrived at the destination, she disembarked from the spirit boat.

Her first thought was to see what was happening to Fu Changye, the master of Lingyi Peak.

But when she actually met the person, she was stunned.

You haven't gained weight?

It's even a few points cheaper than before?

Did Bai Xiangling's attempt to shift the blame to ten pounds of meat have no effect?

What is the situation regarding the transferred killing intent?

Unable to discern or hear Fu Changye's inner thoughts, she lowered her head in deep thought.

After Elder Wu told Fu Changye and the other peak masters about their trip to the small secret realm, almost everyone looked at Li Qingqing at the same time.

They showed little emotion regarding the deaths of many disciples.

Venturing into secret realms is risky, but after the near-total annihilation of Lingqin Peak in the Guihai Secret Realm last time, they have become quite accustomed to this level of casualties.

"Does Peak Master Lingqin know the location of the passage in the small secret realm where the magical beasts appear?" Peak Master Lingjian asked first.

“It’s to the north of the small secret realm.” Li Qingqing traced her finger, comparing it with the location of the Divine Ruins.

"It seems that it really might be because the Gate of the Divine Ruins is about to open. We need to keep a close eye on things these next two days." The Peak Master of the Spirit Weapon Peak was getting a little excited.

We've waited so long, it's finally almost time to start!

"Then I'll go back to the spirit boat and wait!" The Spirit Chef Peak Master shuddered.

This place is much colder than the small secret realm.

Li Qingqing glanced around and said, "I'll go back to the spirit boat too!"

The other peak masters only felt that her cultivation level was low and she couldn't stand the cold, so they didn't care whether she stayed or not.

Back in the lounge, Li Qingqing closed the door, lit the earthen furnace, and continued her alchemy work.

And you know what? With the blessing of the earth fire, and the fact that she had used the Five Elements Transformation Technique, she was able to control the earth fire. After only two attempts, she had already refined the hemostatic pill.

Moreover, the success rate of pill production is very high, with ten medium-grade hemostatic pills produced from one batch.

After two more attempts, she was able to successfully refine a high-grade hemostatic pill.

On the fifth attempt, she was able to refine five plump, white pills with a light golden pattern on each batch of top-grade hemostatic pills.

After refining two bottles of top-grade hemostatic pills, she took out a portion of the ingredients for a muscle-regenerating pill.

Just as she was processing the medicinal herbs, she suddenly heard an excited and lewd voice.

"Junior Sister Bai, you are so fair-skinned. Your skin is so white and tender. Let your senior brother kiss you, and I will give you all the hemostatic pills I have."

As Li Qingqing frowned, she heard Bai Xiangling's fearful and timid voice again.

"No...no! Senior brother, you can't bully me like this! Waaah...Fifth senior brother, let me go...someone will see us..."

Just as Li Qingqing was struggling with whether to "kindly" interrupt the two of them, she suddenly heard Bai Xiangling's inner thoughts.

Why isn't my second senior brother here yet? If he goes too far, my innocence will be ruined.

Li Qingqing gently pressed her brow.

How could Bai Xiangling, a woman, possibly be forced?

Then, she heard the furious voice of Luo Liang, the second senior brother of Lingyi Peak.

"Fifth Brother, you've gone too far. Do you even know where you are? You're completely out of line."

After a few loud bangs outside, Bai Xiangling started to fake cry.

"Waaaaah... Second Senior Brother, please stop fighting..."

Li Qingqing chuckled softly. Had they started fighting?

Bai Xiangling will have work to do again soon; she can go treat people's illnesses and help them lose weight.

After the people outside were taken away and the surroundings quieted down, Li Qingqing continued refining pills.

And her guess was correct. Half an hour later, when Wen Yang, who was standing below the spirit boat, saw Bai Xiangling gently treating the injury on the face of his fifth senior brother from the Spirit Medicine Peak, he had a look of utter disbelief.

"This woman's acting is too good, isn't it? She deliberately injures someone, then treats them, and that fool has to be grateful."

Qiu Shaoze patted him on the shoulder, "Junior brother, you're still too young. I told you long ago that this woman has a problem. Just watch, she'll definitely lose even more weight in a moment."

He's already figured it out in the last couple of days.
