It is impossible for a person like Deacon Qiong to remember the kindness of a little cook.

Ding Huan did not dare to put the Ningxing Bamboo on himself, but he was not willing to give it to the other party for free.

"In this way, after arriving at the sect, how about I ask the mission hall what Ningxingzhu can exchange for you?"

Seeing Ding Huan's reluctance, Deacon Qiong could only make a painless promise.

After all, if you don't give face to Ding Huan, you must give face to Guanmai. He is the cook of the young sect master's wife, even if it is temporary, he must give some face.

"Then thank you very much, Deacon Qiong." Ding Huan knew that this was the only way to do it, because his status was so low.

Although Ding Huan was not qualified to enter the Yanyue Sect, his status has obviously risen.

After all, we had dinner with Elder Gu and Deacon Qiong.

In the next few days, every time Ding Huan set up camp and went out to look for ingredients, the two guardian disciples of Yan Yue Sect would also take the initiative to say hello to Ding Huan.

Guanlai is becoming more and more satisfied with Ding Huan.

This chef made the right choice and brings fresh ingredients every day.

The cooking methods are basically the same, steaming, boiling, pan-frying, deep-frying, stir-frying, there seems to be nothing Chef Ding can't do.

Before I came out, my family and friends all said that the journey from the mortal world to the sect was the most dangerous.

Now, from Guan Mao's point of view, it is no different from traveling in the mountains and rivers.

When entering the Dahe Canyon, Deacon Qiong mentioned how dangerous the road was. It seemed that Deacon Qiong had deliberately made it serious to make everyone wary.

This is already the twelfth day of entering the Dahe Canyon, and we are about to start setting up camp that day.

At this moment, five or six people covered in blood and in a state of embarrassment rushed towards the Yanyue Sect's team from the front.

"Stop." Elder Gu immediately stopped the team.

Soon, those people rushed in front of him.

Even though he saw Elder Gu and others, the guy who took the lead in rushing over still raised his weapon and started slashing like crazy.

Elder Gu shouted coldly, stretched out his hand and grabbed the long sword that was thrust towards him.

Because of Elder Gu's cold shout, the people who rushed over seemed to have come to their senses and stopped in their tracks.

"Are you Elder Gu Youchang of Yanyue Sect?"

The guy who attacked Elder Gu before finally recognized Gu Youchang, with excitement in his tone.

Elder Gu nodded:

"Yes, I am Gu Youchang. If I read correctly, you should be from the Tianwei Sect, right? How could it be like this?"

"Senior Gu, in front, in front..."

This guy couldn't express what he wanted to say for a moment.

Ding Huan's heart was moved, Tianwei Sect? Isn't this the sect that has something to do with Zhiqi?

He had searched around the square of Daye City before, but he didn't seem to see the Tianwei Sect. He thought that the Tianwei Sect had not participated in the selection of sect disciples.

Unexpectedly, not only did they come, they also walked in front of the Yanyue Sect.

"Don't get excited, calm down and speak slowly." Deacon Qiong on the side couldn't help but said.

Fortunately, this guy finally calmed down, with a hint of remorse in his tone:

"I am Han Weicheng from the Heavenly Weapon Sect, and I am also the person in charge of the Heavenly Weapon Sect's recruitment of disciples in the mortal world this time. In addition, Elder Zhenfeng from my Heavenly Weapon Sect is also here, along with two Foundation Establishment disciples.

Including the sixteen disciples we have recruited, there are twenty people in total..."

Elder Gu frowned slightly:

"Deacon Han, there are only four of you, plus sixteen new disciples. This strength is still a bit weak when entering the Dahe Canyon."

This was not because Elder Gu meant to ridicule the other party, but because the Tianwei Sect was not a sect known for its toughness in combat. It was just a weapon refining sect.

So there are four people from the Tianwei Sect, but in fact their combat effectiveness is still very poor.

Judging from the appearance of Han Weicheng and others, they must have encountered a powerful monster, or a group of monsters.

Han Weicheng said sadly:

"No, we know that the Tianwei Sect alone is not strong enough to cross the Great Valley, so we teamed up with the Dajian Sect to cross the Great Valley."

When Elder Gu heard that he had joined forces with the Dajian Sect to achieve this, his expression immediately became serious.

The Tianwei Sect can indeed be ignored, but the Great Sword Sect cannot be ignored.

The Dajian Sect is a swordsmanship sect. Most of the disciples in the sect can kill enemies by leapfrogging their levels. Their strength is no weaker than that of the Yanyue Sect, and they are even stronger in combat ability.

"How many people have come from Dajian Sect?" Elder Gu asked solemnly.

Han Weicheng's heart and soul are still undecided:

"Guan Qiusheng, the third elder of the Great Sword Sect, led the team, along with Deacon Ge Zhu and four Foundation Establishment inner sects."

Elder Gu's expression completely changed.

He didn't know about others, but Guan Qiusheng knew very well that this guy was stronger than him, not weaker.

As for Ge Zhu, no need to ask, he is strong enough to kill Dong Qiong, the deacon from Yanyue Sect this time.

If even Guan Qiusheng, the third elder of the Great Sword Sect, is no match, how strong is the monster?

"Where is Elder Guan?" Elder Gu asked slowly.

Han Weicheng shook his head:

"I don't know. At that time, the black mist seemed to suddenly explode out of thin air, and then there were the screams of the disciples.

I heard Elder Guan's shouting, and then I felt something pinching my neck. It was extremely difficult to breathe, so I just ran back like crazy..." "What you met was not a monster?" Elder Gu added. It's a shock.

"I don't know if it was a monster or not. I didn't see anything at all. A black mass fell from the sky and exploded. Then I felt my neck being pinched, and the coldness penetrated my whole body as if it was about to freeze."

Han Weicheng still had fear in his eyes when he answered.

"Where are you?" Elder Gu looked at the people behind Han Weicheng.

Several people were worse than Han Weicheng. After such a long time, their faces were still pale and they didn't even come back to their senses.

"Deacon Qiong, what do you think?" Elder Gu felt that this matter was a bit beyond his control.

Deacon Qiong shook his head, he still didn't know what to do.

If we camp here, after all, it will be too close to the location where the Tianwei Sect and Dajian Sect happened, and the outcome will be difficult to predict.

"How about we go back a little bit and camp, and when other sects arrive, we can all join together and go there?"

A guard disciple of Yan Yue Sect said something fearfully.

They came here just to do a mission. If they had known that this mission was so terrifying, they wouldn't have come here.

Just as Deacon Qiong was about to speak, Ding Huan stood up and said:

"Deacon Qiong, my sixth premonition has been very accurate since I was a child. I have a vague feeling that it's just right for us to camp here. If we go back, it's really hard to tell whether something will happen."

Everyone stared at Ding Huan in surprise.

It's not that Ding Huan's premonition was correct, but that Ding Huan was not qualified to interrupt at all.

Where is this place? The sect elders and sect deacons are discussing matters.

The sect's guard disciple interjected and said, "It's excusable."

How could Ding Huan, a cook, have the qualifications to interrupt? Or even make such crucial suggestions?

Maybe Ding Huan contributed a Ningxing Bamboo, or maybe it's because Ding Huan is Guanmai's chef.

Although Deacon Qiong frowned slightly because Ding Huan did not understand the rules, he did not scold Ding Huan, but looked at Elder Gu.

Elder Gu thought for a moment and then said:

"Okay, we will camp here today, but we need to add more manpower to guard the perimeter."

Elder Gu accepted Ding Huan's suggestion.

"Deacon Han, you guys should go inside and rest first. Leave the matters outside to me, Yan Yue Sect."

Elder Gu kindly reminded me.

As a deacon who recruits disciples, Han Weicheng naturally understands the ways of the world.

Elder Gu asked him to take the people around him to rest, but he couldn't take it seriously.

It was now the night duty in Yan Yue Sect's territory, and he had to stand up no matter what, otherwise he would anger the Yan Yue Sect and they would kick them out of the team.

"Elder Gu, because I have experienced this, I should also take part in the duty." Han Weicheng said immediately.

Elder Gu pondered for a moment before nodding and saying:

"Okay, you and Deacon Qiong will each be responsible for one side, and I will be responsible for the front. Remember, I will set up a defensive formation and draw a protective line. Please don't step out of the protective line."

Ding Huan suddenly said:

"Elder Gu, as a chef, I have never made much contribution. I will also be on duty tonight."

"Are you on duty?" Ding Huan's words surprised everyone again.

What is your position as a cook?

"Fellow Daoist Ding, this is no joke. After all, you are not a disciple of the sect, you are just a chef. This is not your business..." Deacon Qiong looked at Ding Huan speechlessly.

The implication is, you are a chef, what is your position worth with this strength? Just don’t cause trouble.

Ding Huan smiled:

"Deacon Qiong, I still have some strength, but my qualifications and spiritual roots are too poor, so I wasn't chosen by the sect."

Elder Gu thought of some of the things Ding Huan had done recently and nodded:

"Okay, how about you stay with Deacon Qiong."

Ding Huan said hurriedly:

"Deacon Qiong has a few escort disciples from the Yanyue Sect. How about I follow Deacon Han?"

This is Ding Huan's real purpose, he wants to get in touch with Han Weicheng. As for being on duty, that's just incidental.

Before, Zhi Qi said that he had friends in Tianqi Sect, and Ding Huan had been thinking about how to get to Tianqi Sect.

Now that he had finally met a deacon from the Tianwei Sect, how could he miss the opportunity to make acquaintance?

As for the danger, he had already calculated it and he would be fine tonight. As for other people, he couldn't take care of it even as a cook.

Guan Mao on the other side also looked at Ding Huan helplessly, you said you are a chef, why are you on duty? Isn't this nosy?

It's not easy for her to talk about this matter. After all, Ding Huan is just the chef she invited, not a member of her Jin family. She really has no right to interfere with what others want to do.

Originally, she invited Ding Huan to be responsible for the catering for more than a month on the road. After arriving at Yanyue Sect, Yanyue Sect had a dedicated chef to cook for her.

After this period of observation, Guanmai decided to keep Ding Huan by her side for a long time to cook.

But she had a vague feeling that Ding Huan was not just an ordinary chef.

If it were anyone else, facing this kind of invitation, they would definitely be asking for it, but Ding Huan really doesn't know that.
