Chapter 178 About Sweet Potatoes
"No, Bai Rui, why did you come back with a sweet potato? What did that disciple from Xiao Qingshan say? Did he refuse to associate with us? How could he be so arrogant!"
A woman, about the same height as the little fox, was somewhat annoyed.
She is the third disciple of the head of the Punishment Hall.
Although she appears to be a young girl, she has actually cultivated for over a hundred years.
However, he went astray during one of his cultivation practices and suffered a qi deviation.
The body keeps getting smaller.
It's only now that we've managed to barely get it under control.
He has a fiery temper.
Say what's on your mind.
It won't be roundabout.
Several of his close associates also looked over.
All eyes were on Bai Rui… well, to be precise, on the sweet potato in his hand.
"Yes, why...did you bring this sweet potato back?"
"Didn't we say we were going to have a good chat with Xiao Qingshan's disciples?"
"We didn't have a chance to get to know those two genius disciples who joined the sect before, so we're getting to know this little girl properly. Why did you come back with just a sweet potato?"
Perhaps the ordinary disciples within the sect are unaware of this.
But the sect also has hall masters and elders.
And their direct disciples.
Everyone was aware of Xu Nian and Wu Qinghuan's terrifying talents.
He hadn't been practicing for very long.
I've only been a beginner for about six months.
He has already entered the advanced stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
Xu Nian has already reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, and is only one step away from the Deity Transformation stage.
The younger disciples who joined the sect so much later than them.
Now they have become top-tier cultivators, even stronger than their master.
This stark contrast left everyone bewildered.
It's simply unbelievable.
But it doesn't matter whether it's an elder, a hall master, or even a sect leader.
That's what everyone's saying.
Even if they don't believe it, they have no choice but to believe it.
Surely even the sect leader can't be lying, right?
but…
why?
Why did it break through so quickly?
How exactly did those two cultivate?
Among his direct disciples, there were quite a few who wanted to join another sect and become Xu Nian's disciple.
After all, his master was only at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
Xu Nian is about to enter the Nascent Soul stage.
He could crush his own master with one hand.
What else is there to do if you don't go and become an apprentice?
But later, after being severely disciplined, he finally behaved.
Many of the direct disciples wanted to get to know the two of them better.
Unfortunately, I never had the chance.
These two genius disciples are always on Little Green Mountain and almost never come down.
There was no fixed time for him to go out to visit the markets and towns.
You can't even get through if you want to.
I can only give up.
But today, I was surprised to hear that the new disciple from Little Green Mountain has also arrived.
Everyone became interested.
There was no way I could get to know those two geniuses.
It would be good to get to know this little genius.
So they sent Bai Rui, who was the most popular and had the kindest appearance.
To everyone's surprise, Bai Rui and I chatted for only a short time.
He was sent back.
When I came back, I was carrying a sweet potato.
What is this doing?
Where do these sweet potatoes come from?
At this moment, everyone was filled with doubt.
Bai Rui glanced at the sweet potato, then at the several disciples in front of him.
He scratched his head with a strange expression.
“That child thought I was…going to ask her for sweet potatoes.”
Quiet, deathly silent.
No one on the field spoke.
Eyes wide open.
They were all confused and bewildered.
Is this the thinking of a normal person?
Moreover, one can abstain from grains and food during the Foundation Establishment stage.
There are far too many elders and disciples in sects who practice fasting and abstain from all food.
In fact, it could be said that this is true for most of them.
Only a small portion of people are driven by their own appetites.
Whether there's something to do or not, eat something.
"Speaking of which, Fu Qiuyu, the third disciple of Little Green Mountain, must have the same temperament..."
Suddenly someone spoke up.
His expression was also very strange.
He seemed to have thought of something that had left a deep impression on him.
Seeing that everyone had turned to look at them.
The man said, "Once, she was eating a sweet potato, and I went over to say hello. She thought I was trying to steal her sweet potato, so she stuffed the whole thing into her mouth in one bite. It was such a big sweet potato, and she just... she actually swallowed it whole!"
Everyone's mouths twitched.
Is this little green hill so eerie?
Why do all the disciples want to eat sweet potatoes?
No, what's the point of robbing something like this?
Who cares about sweet potatoes?
Just then, the group suddenly saw Bai Rui break open a sweet potato.
I tore off a small piece, threw it into my mouth, and tasted it.
"Why are you all looking at me? These sweet potatoes are just sitting there anyway, can't I try some...?"
The disciple assessment has not yet begun.
The platform grew increasingly quiet.
Everyone looked at Bai Rui.
Suddenly, a disciple spoke up, "How does it taste?"
Bai Rui blinked.
Think it over carefully.
"I ate too fast and didn't feel it. I'll... have another piece."
"Wait a minute, give me some too."
One of the disciples who was closest to the sweet potato and had been staring at it for a while couldn't resist any longer.
Try to break it with your hands.
I broke off a large piece.
The two began to eat.
"Come to think of it, I've been fasting for over seventy years. Now, for the first time in seventy years, I'm eating something. This stuff is quite sweet, it's really good."
Bai Rui ate quite slowly this time.
Savor it carefully.
This sweet potato is a bit small.
But it tastes very good.
Sweet.
It has a delicate fragrance and a soft, glutinous texture.
It melts in your mouth.
"I wonder who roasted these sweet potatoes; they really know how to control the heat perfectly."
At this moment, the female disciple from the Punishment Hall stared at them suspiciously.
Squinting.
"Give me a piece, I just can't believe... it's so delicious..."
The people around him were somewhat dumbfounded.
Among the direct disciples of the sect, who doesn't know the fiery temper of this killing god?
Why are you eating now?
What about her image?
What about the sofa's decisive and irritable image?
No more?
"What are you standing there for, Bai Rui? Break it in half!"
She was annoyed.
I just wanted to try it, not that I really wanted to eat it.
It's been a long time since I've eaten this.
Now I want to try it out and see how it tastes.
It's not like I'm craving something.
Why are these people looking at me like that?
They're all so annoying!
Bai Rui quickly broke off half and gave it to her.
She took a bite.
Savor it with your eyes half-closed.
He sneered, "Nothing special."
Then I took a second bite.
Then came the third bite.
Still sneering, "I thought it would be delicious!"
I looked at the sweet potatoes; there weren't many left.
So I was much more careful when I took the fourth bite.
The bite size was only half of what it used to be.
The group was somewhat speechless.
Each of them had a strange expression.
You clearly think it tastes delicious!
Are you that concerned about saving face?
Bai Rui glanced at his several personal disciples beside him.
Then he glanced at the small figure sitting on the same high platform, but far away from them.
A vague sense of unease began to rise in my heart.
"This sweet potato..."
"We can't let these disciples go astray..."
I don't think so.
It's just a small sweet potato.
These people have been fasting for many years.
I don't think I'll be ruined by something as small as a sweet potato.
should…
But I'd rather not say it.
This stuff is really delicious.
Who did the research?
The first person to eat a sweet potato was a genius.
