Naturally, Qi Han had no idea that a Titled Douluo had gone so far as to utilize his martial Spirit and Spirit skills to rush to the store, or that another person had dashed with a horse-drawn carriage and a team of horses just to eat his dishes. If he knew, he might have exclaimed, "What a bunch of idiots!"
The aftermath of the burst sausage had yet to dissipate when another disturbance arose in the small shop, this time caused by the third dish Fu Ya had just served, the Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower.
This dish had a slightly peculiar appearance, completely wrapped in a layer of silver foil. The customers didn't know how to eat it, but fortunately, Fu Ya had anticipated this and patiently guided them through the process of unwrapping it.
As the foil was peeled away, the true nature of the Brain Flower was revealed before them, causing a commotion among the customers.
Ying Shuang stared wide-eyed at the tender and white Brain Flower sprinkled with chopped scallions, minced garlic, and small chili peppers. It looked incredibly enticing, but she couldn't help but take a sharp breath.
Fu Ya had warned her, but Ying Shuang had assumed that this dish might not look particularly appealing.
However, it seemed she was mistaken. The dish's presentation was far from lacking, yet what truly gave people goosebumps was its main ingredient.
Brain!
It was the brain, right?
Not only Ying Shuang, even Yu Hua, who was usually composed, couldn't help but change his expression slightly upon seeing the true appearance of the dish.
Qi Han had shown remarkable courage by daring to use the brain of a Spirit beast as a cooking ingredient.
After all, the brain of a Spirit beast and that of a human looked quite similar, which easily led people to associate it with evil Spirit masters. Some evil Spirit masters were known to derive pleasure from killing and consuming brain marrow.
The faces of all the customers who saw the true nature of the dish underwent a change, and one of them even couldn't help but slam the table.
Ye Haoran was a student of Shrek Academy.
At the same time, he was also a regular customer at Qi Han's small shop.
Ye Haoran had a little secret; he secretly admired a senior schoolmate who was a year older than him. She had welcomed him as a junior when he first entered Shrek Academy in his first year.
Although for that senior schoolmate, it was just a part-time job as a work-study student, Ye Haoran couldn't forget the gentle and exceptionally beautiful girl who had greeted him that time.
This senior schoolmate had many admirers, but she turned down all of them without hesitation, which made Ye Haoran reluctant to reveal his feelings to her.
He feared being just one of her many admirers and facing her indifference.
Therefore, when he unexpectedly learned that this senior schoolmate was working as a waitress at a small shop outside of school, Ye Haoran felt a pang of heartache. He knew she came from a humble background, being a work-study student, but he never expected her situation to be so dire that she needed to work as a server at a small shop.
With youthful courage, he found his way to this small shop, intending to stand before his senior schoolmate and say, "Senior, let me take care of you," to ease her burdens. However, upon entering the shop, he was first taken aback by the steep prices, and then quickly won over by Qi Han's delicious dishes.
From that point on, being able to enjoy exquisite cuisine at Qi Han's small shop and seeing his senior schoolmate working hard became Ye Haoran's greatest joy outside of his training.
During Qi Han's ten-day absence from Shrek City, Ye Haoran felt listless. He couldn't savor Qi Han's cooking nor be near his senior schoolmate. It drained his motivation even for meditation.
Thus, upon learning of Qi Han's return and the reopening of the small shop, Ye Haoran wasted no time in arriving.
Visiting the shop naturally meant trying the new dishes. The first dish, Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs, left Ye Haoran particularly satisfied.
Though the Ye family's lineage wasn't abundant, it was quite reputable in the world of Spirit masters. The reason was simple: the family possessed the inherited martial Spirit, the Divine Angel. This top-tier martial Spirit endowed the Ye family members with exceptional talent, making them strong. In Ye Haoran's family alone, there were two Titled Douluo-level powerhouses.
Raised in such a background, Ye Haoran had lived a life akin to nobility. Learning aristocratic etiquette, the Honey-Glazed Grilled Ribs, with its style perfectly aligned with the nobility of the Douluo Continent, captured his heart in an instant.
As for the second dish, the exploding Intestines, Ye Haoran was initially hesitant to try it due to its peculiar aroma. But Fu Ya's words convinced him otherwise. If his cherished girl spoke highly of this dish, then it surely had to be something special.
With this mindset, he pinched his nose and took the first bite, and soon thereafter, he opened the door to a new world.
It was simply too delicious. He never thought a dish that smelled so strange could have such a rich and delightful taste.
Senior, you didn't deceive me!
Filled with anticipation, Ye Haoran eagerly awaited the arrival of the third dish.
Not waiting for him to recover from his momentary excitement at being taught by his senior schoolmate how to unwrap the tin foil, he caught sight of what lay within.
Brain!
Spirit masters with the Divine Angel martial Spirit shared a distinct characteristic: an intense sense of righteousness and a deep-seated hatred for evil.
Evil Spirit masters were their greatest adversaries, and those possessing the Divine Angel martial Spirit often found themselves at the forefront of combat against them.
Seeing the tender white brain nestled within the tin foil, Ye Haoran's heart was instantly ignited with an overwhelming sense of righteousness.
The innkeeper must be an evil Spirit master, why else would he cook with such wicked ingredients!
In an instant, Ye Haoran's imagination ran wild, conjuring up a terrifying tale where his senior schoolmate was coerced by an evil Spirit master, controlled against her will, and forced to work at the restaurant.
With a heart full of justice, young Ye Haoran slapped the table and shouted at the figure in the kitchen, "Perish, evil Spirit master!"
A pair of pure white wings materialized behind him, a radiant white sword appeared in his hand, and three Spirit rings gradually emerged behind him.
Yellow, yellow, purple.
The commotion caused by Ye Haoran was significant. In the midst of his culinary activities, Qi Han couldn't help but turn around to see what was happening. He saw a bird-like figure wielding a radiant sword charging at him, eyes filled with fervent combat intent.
"Damn it," Qi Han muttered to himself. He had already anticipated that unveiling the Tin Foil Roasted Brain Flower delicacy would stir up a commotion.
But it's not exaggerated to this extent, right?
To take out your sword and cut someone else due to a dish?
And to utter the word "Perish, evil Spirit master!", Where did this social bravado come from? Doesn't it feel awkward to say such lines?
Qi Han took a glance at the green school uniform he's wearing.
(Oh, it's from Shrek Academy, no wonder)
Qi Han turned around calmly and continued cooking.
The system had just informed him that, under the protection of the system, even a Limit Douluo couldn't break into the kitchen.
Moreover, he had already noticed several customers making their moves.
Just as Ye Haoran got closer to the kitchen, his spirit rings had lit up, and he was about to unleash his Spirit skills to attack Qi Han, a wooden staff silently tapped against Ye Haoran's ribs.
His Spirit power was instantly locked within his body, unable to be utilized, and his body suddenly stiffened, halting in its tracks. Even his forward momentum vanished, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
"Having this kind of vigor and righteousness at such a young age is a good thing, but such impulsiveness is not advisable."
The wooden staff hanging in mid-air quietly returned and landed in the hands of Yu Hua.
Ye Haoran's Spirit power started flowing again, and a cold hand landed on his forehead.
"Junior brother, calm down!"
Ye Haoran looked up and met the slightly reproachful gaze of the girl he admired, his mind going blank.
