Wang Wei looked at the trembling Hui Mengwei and said: "Cam down. I wouldn't have waited so long if I wanted to do something to you."
"Sir, I'm just too excited and can't control myself," Hui Mengwei swiftly answered. He knew a great opportunity was about to befall him, so he did not want his cowardness, or anything for that matter, to ruin it.
"That's good," Wang Wei nodded, not caring whether he was telling the truth or not. "My wife once despised me because I cannot cook or because I don't have as fancy of a tongue as her. As a man who can hold both Heaven and Earth in his heart, how can I tolerate such a thing?"
Hui Mengwei looked at him in shock. This is not where he thought this conversation would go. 'I didn't expect even these gods would also tremble under their wife's wrath,' Hui Mengwei thought before his body was once again overwhelmed by fear. All he could think about was whether his small body could survive the confrontation between these Gods. Even if he survived, he might be wiped out for knowing too much. After all, this God might not want others to know his wife suppresses him.
Hui Mengwei wanted to cry but dared not. He thought this was a chance to change his life, but he got himself in between the martial dispute between Gods and would be wiped out as a consequence. Wang Wei noticed his sudden emotional fluctuation and checked. He was speechless. This man had a vivid imagination.
'Well, it's not a bad thing if he can use it for cooking,' Wang Wei thought before continuing. He pointed the artifact in his hand, and it fused with Hui Mengwei's forehead.
"Out of pride, I made a bet with her that one day, I would make her the best banquet in the world," Wang Wei continued. "I must keep my promise, but I'm also busy. The Dao of Cooking is profound, and if I only study it half-heartedly, I don't know when I'll be able to fulfill the bet."
Wang Wei had a half-smile on the corner of his mouth as he glanced at Hui Mengwei.
"This is where you come in. I've granted you an artifact that will train you to be the best cook in the world. I want you to build a clan based on the Dao of Cooking, creating the best and most unique recipes in the world, and I'll come to get them. Do you understand?"
"Lord," Hui Mengwei said, immediately kneeling on the ground. "I will go through fire and thunder to complete your mission."
"Good. I hope you remember your words," Wang Wei nodded, deciding not to restrain Hui Mengwei or his family in any way. This can be considered a test for him. If his family can continue their mission and serve Wang Wei faithfully after acquiring a significant amount of power, then it will be fine. If they let the power get to their heads and deny their mission, Wang Wei will just eliminate them and choose someone else.
He waved his hand, teleporting Hui Mengwei home. The latter was confused about what had happened until he realized where he was. "Truly the method of immortals," Hui Mengwei commented in envy. However, he soon regained his bearing as he understood he might have such power in the future. Hui Mengwei did not immediately leave this room but took this opportunity to communicate with the artifact in his mind.
The conversation lasted for over an hour, and Hui Mengwei had a strange expression once he opened his eyes. Wang Wei laughed after seeing this. "Boy, how can you build a Cooking Clan with only one wife and two children? You should thank me."
That's right. Hui Mengwei's first mission was to select more wives and concubines to increase the Hui Clan's population. Wang Wei was correct when he said the latter should thank him since he left enough resources in the artifact to turn Hui Mengwei and his descendants into great talents. He even instructed the artifact spirit to embed law fragments associated with the Dao of Cooking into Hui Mengwei's first 33 heirs, granting them acquired physiques.
Wang Wei stopped observing, but he suddenly remembered something: 'Didn't I promise that silly little girl to find her master? I remember Blood Dragon took him away, but I don't think he was part of the personals we killed or captured."
Wang Wei frowned. 'No need to think so much about it. Blood Dragon should have records of what he did with it; I'll find out when I read through all the information from his network. Before then, let's put her talent to use.' He pointed to the void to create a master-student karmic relationship between the little girl and Hui Mengwei.
'She's about to prove the world, so her safety would be somewhat guaranteed,' Wang Wei muttered. He granted the silly little girl a Heaven Will but did not let her immediately use it since he wanted to increase her chances of becoming an Eternal. Luckily, he discovered that although Chen Zhilan was silly due to being sheltered by her master, her cultivation talent was extraordinary; it wouldn't take much for her to become an Eternal Emperor.
Wang Wei's eyes focused in the distance to the seven people fighting without restraint. "Suppress." His voice echoed between Heaven and Earth, shocking everyone in the realm. A terrifying pressure sent these people crashing into the ground from the sky. "From now on, this is my territory, and fighting is prohibited."
This voice frightened mortals, and the other cultivators quickly admitted their fault. This was an excellent place for Hui Mengwei to lay a foundation, so Wang Wei eliminated the unstable factors for him. Wang Wei condensed some of his Chaos Flame and fused it with this territory as a deterrence. He then changed the secrets of Heaven and Earth. Anyone who tries to investigate the powerhouse that has taken over this place will only find the source to be this Chaos Flame that has gained sentience, and it has nothing to do with Wang Wei — the destined one.
'Boy, look how much effort I've taken to ensure your growth and prosperity. Don't make me waste my efforts,' Wang Wei thought before disappearing from this place.
Where should I go next?' he thought. He should have gone directly to see his future wife and explained. 'But I feel doing this would make me look even more guilty — even though I didn't do anything.' Wang Wei was entangled. He wanted to explain but didn't want to appear too desperate, as if he had done something wrong. He sighed. 'No matter what world, dating is never easy.'
He waved his hand to send two talismans: one for his future wife to tell her of his arrival and the other to Emperor Kong. Ultimately, Wang Wei chose to see Emperor Kong first before meeting her. After all, he didn't do anything wrong.
'I should also show some sincerity, but it can't be too obvious.'
Wang Wei's eyes changed, and he saw his karmic lines. All these lines never touched his body due to the Karma Unbound Body, leaving only one attached to him like an unmovable leech. Wang Wei materialized a sword and used his father's [Absolute Cut Sutra] to cut off this karmic line.
'Hmm? The effect was 10% better. Father's technique is truly unique – especially regarding attack potency,' Wang Wei commented as he looked at the cracked karmic line. 'Unfortunately.' He could not completely sever the causal link, but it was good enough that it cracked. 'She should understand my sincerity.'
Wang Wei's destination was the Holy Academy Realm, where Emperor Kong established the main branch of the Emperor Enlightening Academy. This entire realm was countless times larger than the lower dimension and was a grand city.
'This should be the outer area?' Wang Wei thought as he walked through this vast city. There were no mortals in this place, only cultivators. 'The concentration of energy in this area is excellent, considering it's the weakest part of this city. However, there seems to be something else in the air.'
Wang Wei sensed his environment as he walked. 'Eliminating resentment, restless thoughts, calming the soul, and an understanding boost for cultivators below Tier 10 — this should be a Righteous Qi Array. Emperor Kong's foundation is more profound than I anticipated.'
It's one thing to use this kind of array for a few selected areas for talented students, but something else to use it on such a large scale for everyone to use. From what Wang Wei knows, the outer area is for guests and people waiting for the Academy to recruit members. Yet, such an environment is already top-notch, so he could wait to see the inner and central areas.
While Wang Wei was observing everything, someone flew with incredible speed and landed before. He was surprised since there were flying restrictions even in this outer area, but he understood as soon as he saw who it was.
