259: Chapter 258 The First Heavenly Court Barbecue Festival!
"From the Ziwei Immortal Domain, under the seat of the Ziwei Emperor, the deputy officer of the Seven Luminaries... presents a piece of ten-thousand-year star iron to congratulate Grand Marshal Lin on his housewarming!"
"From the Western Taiji Palace, Venus presents a bottle of Nine-Turn Heart-Cleansing Pills..."
"Under the seat of the Antarctic Immortal Emperor..."
At the entrance of Tiance Mansion, the big black dog that used to be the guard was now proudly the captain of the Tiance Mansion security team. With a sign hanging around its neck that read "I am the dog of the Seven Luminaries," it was currently in human form, acting as the master of ceremonies with a look of existential despair, shouting out the announcements.
The Immortals coming to the banquet were endless.
Although most of the big shots didn't come personally, they sent weighty representatives. After all, Lin Feng was now the "Grand Marshal of Demon Suppression of the Nine Heavens" personally appointed by the Immortal Emperor, and he had the terrifying reputation of slaying Tianpeng and forcing back the Seven Luminaries. No one wanted to invite trouble at this juncture.
More importantly, everyone wanted to come and see what kind of medicine this ruthless man, who had turned the Heavenly Court upside down just after his Ascension, was selling in his gourd.
"Yo, isn't this Venus? What a rare guest!"
Lin Feng held a wine glass, greeted him with a smile, and wrapped his arm around the shoulder of the white-bearded old man, as if they were brothers who hadn't seen each other for years.
"Cough, cough... Grand Marshal is too kind." Venus looked awkward and tried to break free discreetly, only to find that Lin Feng's arm was like an iron clamp, completely immovable.
"Old Bai, I heard that your horsetail whisk is a decent Acquired Spirit Treasure? Can I borrow it to take a look?"
Venus's beard trembled in fear, and he hurriedly covered his sleeves: "Grand Marshal is joking. That is my Lifebound Treasure; it's not worth much, not worth much..."
"Tch, stingy."
Lin Feng let go and scanned the entire venue.
At this moment, the vast square was already filled with thousands of banquet tables.
However, the dishes on these tables... were a bit special.
There was no dragon liver or phoenix marrow, no celestial nectar.
Replacing them were huge barbecue grills!
The smoke and fire, the smell of cumin and chili powder mixed with the aroma of meat, seemed out of place in this Nine Heavens filled with Immortal Qi, yet... it was unusually appetizing.
"This... what is this?"
A luxuriously dressed Fairy covered her nose and mouth, looking at the meat skewers sizzling on the charcoal fire with disgust.
"This is called 'human smoke and fire,' understand?"
Lin Feng jumped onto the main stage, holding a huge megaphone conch, and shouted:
"My fellow friends... no, wait, fellow Immortals!"
"Welcome to the Heavenly Court's First BBQ Party!"
"Today, we won't talk about the Dao, we won't talk about Karma, we'll only talk about eating and drinking!"
"To show my sincerity, I have specially prepared a hard dish for everyone!"
Lin Feng waved his hand.
"Bring out the main course!"
"Boom —"
Liu Ming was seen leading dozens of strong men, huffing and puffing as they carried a huge black pot with a diameter of a hundred meters. Samadhi True Fire was burning at the bottom of the pot, and the soup inside was rolling, emitting an enticing aroma of meat.
In that pot, a huge... pig was stewing?
No, to be precise, it was a winged, sharp-fanged, mountain-sized exotic Heavenly Pig!
"This... this aura..."
Some sharp-eyed Immortals in the audience widened their eyes instantly and gasped.
"This seems to be... Marshal Tianpeng's former mount — [Heaven-Shaking Divine Pig]?!"
"Damn! That's a Divine Beast with the Bloodline of an ancient Vicious Beast! It is said that Marshal Tianpeng treated it like an ancestor, and wouldn't even let a single hair fall off..."
"He... he actually stewed it?!"
The whole audience was in an uproar!
A madman! This Lin Feng is definitely a madman!
Not only did he kill Tianpeng, but he even stewed his mount to treat guests? This was ripping off the Face of the Seven Luminaries Immortal King's lineage and stomping on it!
"That's right! Everyone has a good eye!"
Lin Feng smiled brightly and stirred the pot with a large spoon.
"This is pure, natural, pollution-free high-end food! Golden Immortal Rank meat quality, bouncy and smooth, fatty but not greasy!"
"Come, come, don't be polite, one bowl for everyone, there's more if it's not enough!"
"This is a great tonic! Eating it can enhance your... oh no, enhance your immortal essence!"
The Immortals looked at each other, each with a strange expression.
Eat? That would completely offend the Seven Luminaries Immortal King; how could they survive in the Heavenly Court in the future?
Don't eat? Looking at Lin Feng's "nuclear-friendly" gaze with a spoon in his hand and a knife at his waist, who dared not give him Face?
"What? Is everyone not giving me Face?"
The smile on Lin Feng's Face gradually disappeared, and the surrounding temperature dropped by a hundred degrees instantly.
"Or is it... you think this pork is not as tender as your own meat?"
A threat! A naked threat!
"Eat! We'll eat!"
Venus was the first to react, bitter-faced as he picked up a bowl of meat soup and drank it with a stiff upper lip.
The next second, his eyes lit up.
"Eh? This taste... it's delicious!"
With someone taking the lead, others had no choice but to pick up their chopsticks.
It had to be said, the seasoning produced by the System combined with the Golden Immortal Rank ingredients, the taste was truly impeccable. Soon, the originally reserved Immortals were eating until their mouths were oily, throwing all thoughts of offending the Seven Luminaries Immortal King to the back of their minds.
After three rounds of drinks and five courses of food.
Lin Feng saw that the timing was right and clapped his hands.
"Clap! Clap!"
The whole venue quieted down.
"Did everyone enjoy the meal?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.
"Good! Good!" everyone echoed.
"Since everyone is full, let's move on to the next segment."
The smile on Lin Feng's Face became a bit eerie, like a big bad wolf luring a little white rabbit.
"As everyone knows, I am new here and a bit tight on cash."
"Also, I have a hobby: I like to collect some... interesting little secrets."
"A few days ago, while I was slaying demons in the Lower Realm, I accidentally obtained something very interesting."
Lin Feng flipped his hand, and a Jade Slip emitting a faint ghostly light appeared in his palm.
"This was obtained accidentally when I searched the soul of a certain demonic cultivator..."
"[The Seven Luminaries Immortal King's Early Diary (Uncensored Edition)]!"
"Pfft—!!!"
A Star Lord who was drinking soup sprayed it out directly, spraying the Face of the Fairy opposite him.
The whole venue was instantly dead silent, and everyone looked at the Jade Slip in Lin Feng's hand in horror.
The Seven Luminaries Immortal King's diary?!
Is this something that can be mentioned publicly?! This is a death sentence!
Lin Feng didn't care at all, and even tossed the Jade Slip in his hand.
"It records how the Seven Luminaries Immortal King, before he made his fortune, seduced his master's wife, framed his fellow disciples, and even peeked at the Fairy next door bathing..."
"And there are all kinds of high-definition, uncensored Divine Thought recordings!"
"How about it? Is it exciting? Is it surprising?"
Lin Feng grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Now, I have decided to auction this Jade Slip on the spot!"
"Starting bid: 100 billion High-Grade Immortal Crystals!"
"Or equivalent Heaven And Earth Treasures!"
"Those who want this, whether you are a 'loyal subject' wanting to destroy the evidence, or an 'opponent' wanting to use it as leverage, you can all place your bids!"
"Opportunity knocks, don't miss out!"
Boom!
The entire Tiance Mansion exploded!
Was this a banquet? This was clearly a "pig-killing scam" that was going to pierce the sky!
