Old Dugu!

Just call me Old Dugu!

Yun Yang felt his heart lurch upon hearing those words. His eyes were rimmed red instantly as an overwhelming emotion engulfed him. As he looked upon the old man, he thought about his own father.

Putting an abrupt halt to his stray thoughts, Yun Yang took in a deep breath and said hoarsely, "I dare not. There's only one Old Dugu in my heart, but it can't be senior!"

"Oh?" Dugu Chou hummed under his breath.

Yun Yang stood up and said, "It has been a rare opportunity for me to gather with various seniors today. Yun Yang has indeed come with a purpose, we are all aware of this and there's no need for me to hide it. Thankfully, none of you has decided to chase Yun Yang out on the spot. Yun Yang accepts the welcome with gratitude. Regardless of how this day ends, this gathering isn't a lost cause."

His careful and subservient attitude towards the four masterly experts had suddenly turned into an unconstrained carefreeness. The stark emotional contrast caused the four experts to be dumbfounded once more, as they looked at him again with shocked stares.

Yun Yang smiled and said, "Since this is a happy gathering and this junior has the fortune to be a part of it, this junior should show some sincerity. I will cook up a dish for everyone, all I ask that you try a bit of it."

"It's a shame, come to speak of it. This is the only dish I know how to make! However, it's also a lifelong signature dish that I'm confident enough to bring to the table!" he said slowly with heartfelt emotion.

The sensitive Ling Xiaozui was acutely aware of Yun Yang's turbulent feelings, so he intervened appropriately, "What fare is this that can be said to be a lifelong signature dish?"

"Chinese cabbage tofu." Yun Yang grinned.

He was smiling now, but the four experts all felt that his grin was much sadder than weeping.

Yun Yang turned.

"Keeper, do we have Chinese cabbage and tofu?"

…

After some time, an indescribable aroma slowly filled the entire room.

All four experts sniffed, and surprise bloomed in their eyes. They had not expected that the youth was actually telling the truth! Just by smelling the aroma, they could tell that the dish produced must be uniquely well-crafted!

It was only an ordinary, homemade dish, but it had risen to the peak that a homemade dish could reach!

"Very well, very well indeed! A lifelong signature dish it is!"

Dugu Chou inhaled the aroma, rather intoxicated, and said, "Back in my day… my dear wife had her signature dish as well… I couldn't have enough of it, despite consuming it all my life…"

"The reason such a dish can be a delicious signature dish is that the commonly famed chefs used skills when they cook…" Dugu Chou said softly, "However, my dear wife, like Yun Yang here who cooks this way, used her heart."

"To be able to have such a dish in this lifetime is a great and wonderful opportunity!"

Dugu Chou spoke to Ling Xiaozui, "Ling Xiao, this young friend of yours is splendid - whether to a horse or to people! When you said that his arrival was a chance to know him better, who would have known that it'd be so true?"

"I thought that you were going to beat him up." Ling Xiaozui chuckled.

Dugu Chou chortled. "If he behaved the way he did when he arrived, a trashing would have been unavoidable. Not only would he have been beaten up, you would have suffered the same fate as well! But now…"

He sniffed the aroma that was growing stronger and said softly, "A little tells a lot. Yun Yang is very gifted. His outstanding appearance is secondary, what I care more about is his sentiment. He's sincere to his horse and to people… it's only possible to produce such an intricate dish when he prizes relationships and sentiments to the core… Therefore, he can't be one with evil intentions."

"Besides, coming to find us speaks of his flexibility and adaptability. He understands making use of synergy and isn't pedantic. He can even modulate his behavior to get to know those he wants to get to know."

"If he were to be evil, he would be the world's worst overlord; if he were to be on the side of good, he would be the God in everyone's heart!

"A very good young man." Dugu Chou claimed with even more conviction, "Very good!"

Ling Xiaozui wore a smile that went up to his eyebrows and the corners of his eyes, saying, "I've always thought that this is a good young man as well."

"Not bad indeed," Feng Xiange agreed, smiling from the side.

The skeletal person said, "Not only is he not bad, he's simply amazing!"

"Amazing?" The other three men turned to look at him.

A young man whom the three could compliment as good could be greater than anyone else; it was possibly the first time Dugu Chou had ever found a youth 'very good'. However, there was an even more extreme comment from this expert.

Amazing!

The comment itself was amazing.

The skeletal person beamed, condensing his voice into three lines and sending them into the trio's ears.

"Don't doubt my comment. What I said earlier is rather reserved; in truth, this young man before us is perhaps the most amazing person I've ever met! All of you are unable to see why he is amazing. I don't blame you since none of you are me!"

Hearing this, Dugu Chou, Feng Xiange, and Ling Xiaozui were taken aback.

Amazing!

Unable to see?

Not me?

To imagine that there was someone in this world who dared to speak this way to the three of them. This was truly amazing; they really were unable to see it!

While the four of them could drink together at a table, it was purely possible due to the timing and the sensing of each other's auras; they had all felt each other's comparable cultivation base and were of similar levels; although there were differences, they could be considered paltry.

This was how the gathering came to be.

The last person actually did not know anyone among the trio, but upon speaking like he did, he had stated his superiority. Ling Xiaozui and the other two were masterly experts of this world, at the peak of the pinnacle, how could they accept such condescending behavior?

"You said that we were unable to see it. Are you also saying that you can?" Feng Xiange scoffed, peering balefully at the man out of the corner of his eyes.

"Of course," said the skeletal person.

Feng Xiange asked, "May I ask you to identify yourself?"

The skeletal person sighed, "The God of Wine serves us wine, what a happy meeting it was. I thought you would have guessed who I am… I see now that you haven't."

Feng Xiange frowned, unable to come up with a reply, while Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui exchanged thoughtful glances.

Dugu Chou could vaguely guess the identity of this walking sack of bones, but he was even more certain of it now.

The skeletal person smiled faintly, pouring himself a bowl of wine and emptying it, as he said softly, "One word of mine can, perhaps, prevent you from meeting an untimely demise… but his one word can…"

As he got to this part, his expression contorted into one of extreme agony. With a hoarse cough, he spat out blood. Turning his head in time, the blood that he spat shot out like an arrow, hurtling far into the dark.

Far on the other end of the darkness, there was a cry of pain, but it was short-lived. The strangled cry was as if someone was coincidentally there and had been struck by the blood. They could only cry out, but before their voice could travel far, they had perished instantly!

This time, the other three experts looked up in unison, and spoke simultaneously, "It's you! It's really you!"
