Fishing Guy Ah Gui

After accepting the Skeleton Horse's reins, Tian Ye chose not to use it himself but planned to sell it.

He already had a buyer in mind.

It was their Chief Captain, Liao Chen.

Liao Chen had previously mentioned buying a mount for five million, preferably one that looked impressive.

The Skeleton Horse perfectly fit the criteria.

"Right, the city might not be peaceful lately. If you have no urgent business, it's best not to go to unfamiliar places alone."

Tian Ye cautioned him before leaving.

"Understood." Lin Yuan kept this warning in mind.

This world was not as peaceful as it seemed,

the invasion of Dungeons was the overt danger,

but there were also many organizations secretly existing on Blue Star that wished to destroy the world.

Some of these forces worshipped Evil Gods, hoping to use them to bring Dungeon monsters down upon Blue Star,

while others sought to unify Blue Star and establish an empire dominated by Professionals,

forcing ordinary people to serve as slaves, available for Professionals to exploit at will.

Tian Ye had a busy schedule,

so he said goodbye to Lin Yuan and departed.

Left alone, Lin Yuan decided to stroll around the residential area.

Longding Residential Area, being the foremost Villa Area in Tianfeng City,

had excellent infrastructure and environment.

There was a lake on the east side of the area, stocked with dozens of types of fish,

and many swans nested there.

By the lake, several fishing enthusiasts were sitting and chatting.

A middle-aged man in blue clothing put down his phone and said to the person next to him,

"Did you guys check the Professional Forum today? Someone cleared the Nightmare Difficulty Skeleton Graveyard."

"Really? Which Guild's pioneering team was it? The difficulty of the Skeleton Graveyard isn't low."

A young man with dyed yellow hair looked slightly surprised.

"Was it the Dawn Sword Guild? I heard their pioneering team secured the First Clear of the Nightmare difficulty Goblin Forest a month ago."

"Not them." An old man in a security uniform, whose face was covered in wrinkles, shook his head.

"With their team's standard, at best they could withstand the first five waves of attacks. They'd be wiped out by the sixth wave."

"Then which Guild was it?" the yellow-haired man asked.

"It wasn't a Guild, it was a Lone Professional." The middle-aged man in blue paused, looking surprised. "And it was just one person."

"Soloing the Nightmare Difficulty Skeleton Graveyard!" The yellow-haired man was overjoyed. "Was it an SSS-Rank Talent Professional?"

"This person doesn't have a Guild, right? My Soaring Dragon Guild wants him."

"Cui Xianglong, you're dreaming." The middle-aged man in blue retorted sharply. "With the size of your Soaring Dragon Guild, you can't handle this True Dragon."

"Lin Yandong, are you looking down on me?"

The yellow-haired youth, Cui Xianglong, crossed his arms and said with slight dissatisfaction,

"If my Soaring Dragon Guild isn't qualified, then which Guild in Tianfeng City is?"

"Just based on you, a Level 46 Striker." Lin Yandong scoffed.

"As far as I know, that guy Cheng Feng has already approached him, and the price is quite high."

"Your Soaring Dragon Guild is only number one in Tianfeng City. Compared to Jingdu University, you're still far behind."

"Damn it, Old Man Cheng is fast." Cui Xianglong's face fell. He turned around, facing the lake.

He swung his arm forcefully, and the fishing rod zipped far away.

"It's really hard to find a rising star."

"Give me a break. Do you think I don't know that you've already cultivated an elite team composed entirely of S-Rank Talents?"

"Their Captain, Xue Bin, even has the rare SS-Rank Caster Talent."

"You sent them to the neighboring Shanhe City to compete with the geniuses in the provincial capital."

"I heard they even snatched the First Clear of a Level 15 Nightmare difficulty Dungeon."

Lin Yandong smiled, exposing Cui Xianglong's little hidden secret.

"President Lin, your insight is sharp. Nothing can be hidden from you, indeed." Cui Xianglong laughed heartily, a hint of pride in his expression.

At this moment,

Lin Yuan led A Li and Ghost back to the lakeside.

He had already visited once before,

but seeing so many fish and swans in the lake,

Lin Yuan had returned to the villa to fetch some items.

He set the charcoal and barbecue tools aside.

Lin Yuan pointed at the swans and fish in the distance.

"A Li, go get two fat geese."

"Ghost, you go catch a few fish."

A Li silently walked toward the flock of swans, returning with two fat swans—er, geese.

Once the swans were placed in front of him, Lin Yuan was stunned.

He didn't know how to prepare them.

Turning to look at A Li, A Li crossed his arms.

He shook his head.

Killing the goose was fine, but cooking was not.

His hands could only hold a sword or play music.

Lin Yuan's mouth twitched slightly.

Well, the noble Musician.

You're amazing.

He had the geese, but no one to cook them.

What should he do?

He pulled out his phone and called Sun Xu.

"Brother Lin, I just got out of a Dungeon. What's up?"

"I got two geese. We're roasting them for lunch today, lakeside in the Villa Area. Hurry over!" Lin Yuan said straightforwardly.

"Got it, I'll be right back."

On the other end of the phone, Sun Xu was begging for forgiveness.

"Oh, sisters, that's enough for today. My Brother Lin needs me for something."

"It's not that your little brother isn't enduring, it's really urgent."

"Another day, another day I promise to go at it all day long and satisfy all four of you sisters!"

Lin Yuan: ...Damn it, this old pervert.

Always telling dirty jokes.

Someone who didn't know would think you were at a nightclub.

Twenty minutes later, Sun Xu arrived at the lakeside carrying large and small bags of seasoning.

Seeing the swans on the ground and then looking at the lake,

Sun Xu hesitated, "Brother Lin, this..."

"These are two geese I bought outside. Is there a problem?"

"No problem."

Sun Xu pulled a simple stove out of his backpack.

The stove came complete with a large iron pot and kitchen utensils.

"You're very well prepared, considering you said you didn't want to change your class to Chef." Lin Yuan joked from the side.

"Hah, cooking is my hobby, but once it becomes a Profession, it's different."

Sun Xu set the pot on the stove and boiled water, expertly cleaning the geese.

"Right now, I cook for myself, and I eat whatever I want."

"But if I changed my class to the Life Profession Chef, I'd only be cooking for others."

"It wouldn't be as carefree and happy as it is now."

Sun Xu was very quick and efficient. Soon, one of the geese was chopped up and tossed into the pot.

It bubbled and steamed fragrantly.

"These swans—oh, I mean geese—they taste best when stewed."

"Today we'll have 'one goose, two ways': first, a Stewed Goose in an Iron Pot, and second, a Roast Goose."

Lin Yuan leaned toward the stove and fanned the air toward his nose.

Whoa!

It smelled fantastic!

As the goose was about to be served, Lin Yuan suddenly remembered something.

Where had Ghost gone?

He told him to catch fish, and it was almost one o'clock.

Even if he had gone to the market to buy fish, he should be back by now.

Lin Yuan stretched his neck and looked around, spotting Ghost among the fishing enthusiasts.

Ghost was sitting next to Lin Yandong, fishing with a rod.

The main thing was, if you were going to fish, fine,

but he kept making that 'hehehehe' laugh every now and then.

It would be a Ghost's chance if he actually caught anything.
