40: Chapter 40 Family Portrait, A Perfect Reunion
Of course, everyone was complaining inwardly, but no one dared to show it.
Immediately after, Peak Master Yun Huoyue raised her hand and waved it again, taking out a jade bottle: "This is a foundation establishment pill."
"As long as the rabbit you carve can satisfy this Peak Master, this foundation establishment pill shall be yours."
What?!
Everyone's breath hitched.
A foundation establishment pill!
This was the Medicinal Pill that everyone present dreamed of obtaining!
Although this item could be exchanged with merit points, the waiting list was at least three years long.
For these Disciples with average talent, once they missed the optimal time for Foundation Establishment, their future path of immortality would become increasingly difficult to traverse.
Even if they had merit points now, they didn't have the time to wait.
This was undoubtedly a huge opportunity!
Chun Xiaobai was originally not very interested, but a foundation establishment pill...
He had heard from that guy Fang Yuan that this Medicinal Pill could sell for thirty to fifty thousand Spirit Stones at the black market!
"Isn't this just sending money to This Great King?"
"This Great King's blade technique can carve a Dragon and paint a Phoenix above, and chop bone and mince meat below; I guarantee I will carve you a fat and big rabbit!"
However, he hesitated again.
Because the Disciples who came here were all male; there wasn't a single female Disciple.
Could this woman be trying to use this method to test out that peeping tom?
Fang Yuan, on the other hand, looked completely uninterested.
Not to mention using a knife to carve a rabbit, he usually easily cut his own fingers just chopping vegetables.
Peak Master Yun Huoyue swept her gaze across the crowd and pointed directly at those who were trembling with excitement, as well as Disciples like Fang Yuan who were uninterested, and said coldly.
"You all, get lost!"
"Ah!!!"
Those guys were completely dumbfounded.
"No, Peak Master, give us a chance! I have already grasped the essence of carving; I can definitely carve a rabbit you will like!" one Disciple pleaded.
"Bang!"
The next second, that Disciple pleading for a chance was slapped away by her and blasted directly out of the Martial Arts Field.
Chun Xiaobai's heart tightened, "This woman really has something wrong with her brain!"
"She strikes at the slightest disagreement!"
He did a rough count and discovered that she had cleared away over eight hundred people, leaving only about two hundred, and he was one of them.
Peak Master Yun Huoyue pointed directly at the Disciple at the very front of the line.
"Come here."
That Outer Sect Disciple was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward to take the large blade.
The blade flashed, and before it could even fall...
Peak Master Yun Huoyue spoke directly: "Get lost!"
"Ah!!!"
The Disciple was stunned and just wanted to ask why, but when he thought of those Disciples who had been slapped away earlier, he held it back and ran away as fast as he could.
Next was the second Disciple.
This one had learned to be smart; he took the blade with an expressionless face and brought it down immediately. "Swish!"
A strip of radish skin flew up.
But before the radish skin could even land, another "Get lost!" came.
His movements paused, and he dropped the knife and ran.
"This woman really is crazy!" Chun Xiaobai couldn't help but mutter behind the crowd.
Next was the third; this Disciple had just taken the blade and hadn't even set his stance yet — when he was told to "Get lost".
The fourth one, the blade went down, but before it touched the radish, another "Get lost" came...
Chun Xiaobai watched Peak Master Yun Huoyue; he had originally thought this woman wanted to test out the peeping tom, but seeing that the Disciples in front didn't even have a chance to perform, he felt it didn't seem like that.
More than twenty people in a row, and the most anyone managed was two cuts before being told to get lost.
When it was the twenty-first person's turn, this person came up without any nonsense, his wrists flicking, "Swish, swish, swish, swish," and in less than ten breaths, he had carved a... rabbit that looked like a fat dog.
Then he looked at Peak Master Yun Huoyue expectantly.
Peak Master Yun Huoyue only glanced at it indifferently and said again: "Get lost."
She took out another large radish: "Next."
Just like that, over one hundred people passed, and almost all of them were told to get lost as soon as the blade fell.
When it was the one hundred and first Disciple, this Disciple came up and concentrated his spirit, his long blade dancing into afterimages, and in seven or eight breaths, he carved a big, fat rabbit.
This rabbit was lifelike, making one's appetite soar.
The remaining ninety-plus Disciples felt their hearts go cold; it was over, this foundation establishment pill was going to be gone.
Peak Master Yun Huoyue's gaze also fell on that rabbit, watching for a few breaths, before finally spitting out one word.
"Get lost."
"Ah!!!"
That Disciple was completely dumbfounded; this was his ancestral culinary carving skill!
You are still not satisfied with this?
Of course, he didn't dare to ask, so he put down the knife and ran away.
"Damn it, this woman is really hard to please."
Chun Xiaobai finally realized that this woman was not testing for a peeping tom at all; nine times out of ten, she was furious after being seen by him and was just messing with people here!
Soon, several more lifelike rabbits were carved, and among them, there even appeared various poses such as jumping, fighting, biting, and acting cute.
But Peak Master Yun Huoyue was still unsatisfied, and in the end, they were all rewarded with only the word "Get lost".
Peak Master Yun Huoyue suddenly turned her head and looked at Chun Xiaobai, who had been sizing her up, and said coldly.
"You, come here!"
Chun Xiaobai looked left and right, and since no one else stood out, he realized that this woman was calling him.
He quickly ran up, suppressing the excitement on his face.
Let me show you all, This Great King's art!
These people's carving skills were not bad, but in his opinion, they lacked a bit of artistic component.
He picked up the large cleaver directly, flicked his wrist, "Swish, swish, swish" a few times, the blade light flashing, and radish shavings flew everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, a group of rabbits immediately took shape.
Yes, that's right, it was a group of rabbits!
The people around were all stunned: "This... this..."
Peak Master Yun Huoyue also raised her eyebrows slightly.
Seeing this, Chun Xiaobai didn't wait for her to speak and directly introduced: "Peak Master, the dish I carved is themed 'Happy Reunion'!"
"Look, this is the grandfather and grandmother, this is the father and mother, this is the son, this is the daughter..."
This truly surprised Peak Master Yun Huoyue.
However, as soon as Chun Xiaobai finished speaking, the temperature of the surrounding air dropped sharply.
Chun Xiaobai's heart sank.
He had experienced this feeling before; it was Killing Intent!
It's over!
This Great King hasn't really been discovered by this woman, right?
Seeing that this woman was about to blow up, he immediately said: "Peak Master, if you are not satisfied, it doesn't matter! This... Disciple still has something even more amazing!"
He picked up the leftover radish chunks from before, "Swish, swish, swish" a few more cuts, and a new shape was carved out.
It was still rabbits, but this time it was one male and one female, with their heads leaning against each other, being lovey-dovey and showing off their affection.
But the people around had no mind to appreciate it; pairs of eyes were staring fixedly at Peak Master Yun Huoyue.
After all, this woman was a lunatic; if she started fighting, whoever ran slowly would be out of luck.
Peak Master Yun Huoyue looked at that pair of rabbits, her gaze shifting slightly, and then she looked at Chun Xiaobai again.
After two seconds of silence, she inexplicably withdrew her Killing Intent and then pointed at the remaining Disciples who hadn't demonstrated yet, saying coldly.
"Get lost."
"Alright!"
Chun Xiaobai nodded and lifted his feet, preparing to follow those who felt like they had been granted amnesty and slip away.
Who knew that Peak Master Yun Huoyue would suddenly speak to Chun Xiaobai's back: "You, stay."
