Early morning, Tianshan, Jinghua Tianyu Cave.

"Ah~~~ha~~~"

When Cang Lan yawned and walked out of the temporary guest room, she happened to see Bai Xue nervously placing cutlery, plates and other items at the long table in the central hall.

The sound of clinking iron forks and porcelain plates was heard, and one could see that every plate on the table contained freshly baked, well-balanced cheese and butter bread, chocolate muffins, bacon, ham, and egg sandwiches, etc.

A "breakfast" that smells super sweet and tempting.

As a little expert in baking, Bai Xue had never made such a high-end breakfast before, but she stayed up all night last night to study the super thick "Master's Cookbook" that was placed in the kitchen and had countless marks by Sister Hualing.

"After that, she felt that her cooking skills had made a qualitative leap...

So, taking this opportunity, she decided to challenge and improve herself by imitating "Sister Hualing's Ordinary Day". After all, to a certain extent, this was the first job she received after joining the Mirror Flower Palace.

A "mission".

"Well... the temperature of the milk is just right. For omelette, make it medium rare. Suzaku-senpai doesn't like iced drinks, so you have to prepare hot tea... Xiaoling-senpai is injured and needs to supplement his nutrition, so he'll stay there for a while.

She and Senior Sister Qin sent it there in person... Sister Hualing never eats, and Senior Mu Qing is in retreat... Well..."

Seeing her muttering to herself as if facing a formidable enemy, Cang Lan quickly walked over:

"Uh, Bai Xue, do you need me to do something for you?"

"Eh? Cang Lan, are you awake? No, no, no, I can do it myself!"

Looking up and seeing her wanting to help, Bai Xue immediately stopped her.

In Bai Xue's heart, Cang Lan is a guest, and she cannot let the guest do her work for her either emotionally or rationally. It would be embarrassing, so Bing Xue is smart and she immediately followed her master's routine to change the subject and asked:

"Well...how was it? Did you sleep well last night?"

"Well, it's very comfortable."

Cang Lan has a straightforward personality and is not shy. She just generously found a seat and sat down, watching Bai Xue busy at the side.

"That's good. The master should be here soon. You eat something first, and I'll take your share."

Bai Xue pushed a plate to her, handed over a knife and fork and a cup of hot coconut milk, and said with a smile:

"This is the 'Jing Hua Palace Breakfast', come and try my craftsmanship~"

"!Thanks."

Taking the sweet aroma of coconut milk, looking at the extremely attractive cheese omelette and the hot dog topped with corrugated ketchup on the plate, Cang Lan couldn't help but twitch her fingers and sighed:

"This... these beautiful foods, I have never eaten before... no, never seen them before."

She has lived in the wild for so many years, and she usually relies on hunting for her own food. She eats raw meat and wild fruits. She has never enjoyed such exquisite food. In addition, since she has been on the run, she also sleeps on

Harsh environments like lairs and caves...

Now, not only was his life saved by a senior named "Suzaku", but he was also treated like this by this gentle lady Bai Xue. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel deeply in his heart.

But I heard Bai Xue say while arranging the tablecloth: "Haha, I have never seen these delicacies at first. It is said that these recipes are created by the owner himself. If you can also join the Jinghua Palace, you can

You can learn a lot of delicious food recipes.”

"'Jing Hua Palace'..."

Cang Lan murmured and took a sip of warm coconut milk, then opened her eyes wide——

"Hmm!!"

The sweet and creamy liquid flowed down her throat and into her stomach. She would never forget such a delicious drink in her lifetime.

Seeing her feelings written on her face, Bai Xue covered her mouth and smiled:

"This is Xiao Ling-senpai's favorite drink. How about it? It doesn't taste bad, right?"

"Yeah! Delicious!"

Cang Lan nodded repeatedly and drank the remaining coconut milk in a toast.

Then, she picked up the knife and fork, cut the cheese omelette in half in a very unfamiliar way, and put half of it into her mouth...

"?!!"

"Hahaha..." Bai Xue couldn't help but feel happy when he saw her expression of being grasped by her newly learned "special skills". In a sense, experiencing this recognized sense of accomplishment can be regarded as a production.

One of the greatest pleasures is good food.

Just as the two women were chatting and enjoying the beautiful morning, they heard a "buzz" sound, and with the slight spread of spatial spiritual power, Lu Lingqiu's figure slowly walked out of the Fenghua Mountain teleportation array.

"Ah, master! You are back!"

Seeing that he was the master, Bai Xue immediately stood up to greet him. After becoming a trainee spirit envoy, she did not know when to start calling Lu Lingqiu naturally from "Senior Lu" to "Master".

"Well, Bai Xue, long time no see."

Lu Lingqiu nodded, and then turned his attention to Cang Lan, who also stood up.

"Hello...hello."

The first time she saw this "Mirror Flower Palace Master", Cang Lan felt extremely nervous.

She had thought long before coming here that the person who could become the master of Senior Suzaku would definitely not be an ordinary person. It would most likely be some powerful ancestor, and a human with that level of cultivation would

No matter how she thought about it, she should look like an old man... But now that she saw the real person, she realized that she had overthought it.

So young, so handsome, so temperamental, so powerful...

"It's so handsome..."

Cang Lan, who was slightly shy about her appearance, was thinking this in her heart, but she couldn't express it on her face. While she was secretly looking at him in the main seat, Lu Lingqiu was also looking at her.

At this moment, she was wearing a black leather one-piece bustier——

The leather jacket was a midriff-baring style, which perfectly highlighted her toned figure; she wore long leather boots on her lower body, half of her calves were submerged in them, and the roots of her thighs were covered by the hem of the dress, which caused her knees to

There is an attractive area above that is exposed, giving people a hot and open feeling.

Her hair is gray and medium to shoulder length. She has three-dimensional facial features and a pretty appearance. She does not wear makeup. After a brief observation, Lu Lingqiu said:

"You are Asuka's friend, right?"

"Eh?"

Cang Lan was stunned and couldn't react for a moment: "Flying... bird?"

It wasn't until he repeated the name that his eyes suddenly widened and he asked in disbelief:

"You mean...Xi Feiniao?!"

"Yeah." Lu Lingqiu nodded.

"Asuka...is she still alive...?!"

After getting the answer, Cang Lan seemed to be trembling even while breathing. On the way back, Yan Ye didn't say why he rescued her, and she didn't ask, so she was always confused. Now...

"certainly."

Lu Lingqiu smiled slightly and said firmly:

"Not only is she alive, but she has also grown a lot. This time we sent people to rescue you, and it was only through the information she got that we were able to pinpoint the location."

"What...what..."

Cang Lan slumped back to his seat with violent mood swings, and murmured with a look of guilt on his face:

"Feiniao...are you still willing to recognize me as your friend..."

"?"

Lu Lingqiu frowned, and looked at Bai Xue who was observing on the side. He suddenly realized that the matter was not simple. But seeing Cang Lan acting like this, he didn't ask any more questions, and just said warmly:

"You must have a lot to say to her, right? Why don't you stay here temporarily during this period, and when Asuka comes back from his mission, you can thank her properly."

"...Okay, okay. Thank you, senior." Cang Lan weakly stood up and bowed deeply, responding solemnly.

"Well, relax and eat more."

Lu Lingqiu made simple arrangements for her, and after asking Bai Xue a few words through sound transmission, she got up and walked towards the third floor.
