Ye Shenfei waved her hand, indicating that there was no need for formalities, and then instructed, "Even with a protective talisman, it is still just an external object. True strength never depends on external objects. When you are traveling, remember not to be careless. You must be careful and vigilant at all times."
After speaking, Ye Shenfei slowly got up, walked to a blue stone in front of the bamboo house and sat down, turning her gaze to Feng Shenye, who had been standing silently to the side without saying a word.
"Xiaoye."
Ye Shenfei's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable air of authority.
"How long are you going to stand there like an idiot? Your two senior brothers and sisters are about to go out and conquer the sky, what about you? Shouldn't you go into seclusion?"
Feng Shenye's body trembled, and he quickly stepped forward, lowering his head like a child who had done something wrong.
"You only cultivate one path, and although you are proficient in it, your progress is still so slow. You've been stuck in the Divine Realm for so many years. Do you still have any intention of breaking through to the Immortal Realm in this lifetime? Or do you just plan to live a life of leisure and idleness like this forever?"
Although Ye Shenfei's words were not harsh, every word was piercing to the heart.
In fact, she was very strict with her son, and you could even say she was disappointed in him.
Therefore, even just this one sentence was enough to make Feng Shenye feel immense pressure, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
After hesitating for a moment, he took a deep breath, raised his head, a determined look flashing in his eyes, and nodded heavily.
"Mother is right. Your son knows he was wrong. Your son... naturally wants to break through to the Immortal Realm."
"Since you still have the hope of reaching the Immortal Realm in this lifetime, then put away your playful thoughts." Ye Shenfei pointed to the depths of Autumn Wind Valley behind her. "From now on, you will stay in my Autumn Wind Valley for seclusion and are not allowed to go anywhere else. You may only emerge from seclusion when you have cultivated nine Immortal Dao Patterns and reached the perfection of the Divine Realm. Otherwise, don't call me Mother Consort."
Upon hearing this, Feng Shenye revealed a bitter smile, a look that was more like crying. He knew that his mother was serious this time. Although Autumn Wind Valley was beautiful, it was no different from a cage for someone like him who loved excitement.
But he dared not object, and could only obediently nod and cup his hands, saying, "Your subject will obey Mother's orders."
Seeing this, Luo Yunsheng couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, saying comfortingly, "Little Yezi, don't look so gloomy. Your master is doing this for your own good. You have good talent, but your temperament is not stable. It's not a bad thing to spend more time settling down and tempering your Dao heart."
"Moreover, since you cultivate a single path, although your combat strength at the same level may be weaker than those of us who cultivate multiple paths, and your methods are not as numerous, the Great Dao is simple. Therefore, the difficulty for you to break through to the Immortal Realm will be correspondingly lower, and you will encounter fewer bottlenecks. As long as you can endure loneliness, your future achievements may not be inferior to ours."
"My mother's suggestion is absolutely correct."
Feng Shenye sighed, nodded, and looked at Su Bai and Luo Yunsheng, his eyes filled with envy and reluctance: "I understand, Sister Yunsheng, Su Bai. You must take good care of yourselves out there. If I come out of seclusion and you are missing limbs, I will laugh at you for the rest of my life."
Su Bai patted his shoulder and laughed, "Don't worry, we'll come back alive. But you, don't let us all become immortals while you're still stuck in the God Realm."
"Go to hell!" Feng Shenye laughed and punched Su Bai.
Seeing this heartwarming scene, Ye Shenfei's eyes softened, and she waved her hand, saying, "Alright, now that you all have your own things to do and have chosen your paths, don't linger here any longer. Go do what you need to do and don't disturb my peace."
"Master!" Luo Yunsheng suddenly stepped forward and took Ye Shenfei's arm, saying coquettishly, "It's rare for the three of us, master and disciple, plus little Ye, to get together like this. Who knows when we'll see each other again? Why don't we have a meal together before you leave? Perfect! I'll cook for you myself today and show off my skills!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Shenye, who had been feeling somewhat sentimental, instantly changed his expression, as if he had heard something extremely terrifying.
His lips twitched, and he said with a wry smile, "Um... Sister Yun Sheng, how about we find another opportunity? The spiritual energy in Autumn Wind Valley is too strong; cooking there is likely to cause an explosion... Besides, hehe, Sister Yun Sheng, your cooking skills..."
Luo Yunsheng's beautiful eyes widened instantly, and she said fiercely, "Little Yezi, what's with that expression? Are you questioning my cooking skills? I've been doing some serious research on it recently!"
Su Bai glanced at Luo Yunsheng with great curiosity, thinking to himself: How bad must his cooking be to make Feng Shenye, this foodie, show such a terrified expression?
Soon, Su Bai learned what it meant to "specialize in one's own field".
Luo Yunsheng's cultivation level is indeed remarkable; he is definitely a top-tier existence in the Immortal Realm.
His mastery of fire manipulation is unparalleled.
But this cooking... it was a complete disaster.
The higher her attainments in Taoist cultivation, the worse her cooking skills are.
Looking at the table full of dark, eerie-smelling "dishes" that were even bubbling with unknown bubbles, Su Bai and Feng Shenye exchanged bewildered glances, and even Ye Shenfei couldn't help but sigh and rub her forehead.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, Su Bai had no choice but to roll up his sleeves and take over her mess.
"I'll do it."
Using the spiritual materials available in Autumn Wind Valley, Su Bai skillfully prepared a dinner for the group.
Although they are all home-style dishes without many fancy cooking techniques, and might not be considered impressive by ordinary cultivators, they are delicious and flavorful, preserving the most authentic freshness and vitality of the ingredients.
When plate after plate of steaming, fragrant dishes were served, Feng Shenye was so moved she almost cried.
He picked up a piece of spirit meat and put it in his mouth. After a few bites, he exclaimed excitedly, "Mmm...delicious! Su Bai, thank goodness you saved the day! Otherwise, tonight's banquet might have turned into our last supper, which would have been terrible!"
"Eat your food! Stop talking so much!" Luo Yunsheng was embarrassed and angry. She immediately kicked him under the table, making a groaning sound, and two red clouds appeared on her face.
Seeing this scene, Su Bai couldn't help but laugh, and the gloom in his heart dissipated considerably.
Ye Shenfei took a bite of the stir-fried bamboo shoots and nodded slightly, a hint of surprise in her eyes: "The taste is indeed very good, and the cooking time is just right. I didn't expect you, Su Bai, to have such skills. This has truly impressed me."
Su Bai smiled and said, "Master, you flatter me. I came from the mortal world step by step. Before I began cultivating, I often studied these things to make a living. Later, after embarking on the path of cultivation, I would occasionally cook some food to satisfy my appetite or to reminisce about the taste of my hometown, so I have some insights!"
