God of Cuisine Reborn: I Became Invincible by Cooking

Chapter 42 – Cancellation of engagement is not possible, but divorce is feasible



He Lu, with disheveled hair and a bruised face, glared angrily at Ye Changqing. Besides anger, there was a deep sense of grievance, and her eyes were red.

"Um... let's take that foot wrap out first."

Xu Jie said, as there was no way to communicate with her mouth blocked. Hearing this, Xu Jie nodded and shouted to the surrounding disciples.

"Whose foot wrap is this? Come and take it."

Xu Jie looked disgusted, unwilling to touch the foot wrap. Seeing this, He Lu couldn't help but make muffled sounds.

You don't even want to touch it, yet you stuffed it in my mouth?

"Senior Brother Xu, it's mine."

Soon, a male disciple stepped out from the crowd, and it was evident that one of his feet indeed lacked a foot wrap.

He came over to He Lu and removed the foot wrap, and instantly, He Lu couldn't help but retch.

It took a while for her to stop, and then she looked angrily at Ye Changqing and said.

"Ye Changqing, you... you tricked me."

In He Lu's view, Ye Changqing must have given these disciples some benefits for them to target her like this. It was all part of Ye Changqing's plan.

In response, Ye Changqing was speechless. He really hadn't done anything.

And even if you're guessing blindly, you should consider reality. As a menial disciple, how could he have the ability to make so many disciples help him, not to mention there were two direct disciples involved.

"Is your brain okay?"

He looked at He Lu with a caring expression, wondering if her brain had been damaged.

Meanwhile, as He Lu and the others were brought before Ye Changqing, Yu Li on the main peak hadn't seen Sect Master Qi Xiong. Instead, she was received by the Third Elder, who now received a message from He Lu.

Yu Li's face instantly turned grim.

The moment she was beaten, He Lu found an opportunity to contact her Master.

Seeing Yu Li's sudden change of expression, the Third Elder asked curiously.

"Junior Sister, is something wrong?"

They were all righteous cultivators, and the relationship between the two sects was good, so they generally addressed each other as Senior Brother and Junior Sister to show closeness.

Facing the Third Elder's inquiry, Yu Li said with a grim expression.

"Didn't Junior Sister come here specifically for my disciple?"

"Yes, you mentioned it before."

"But now, my disciple has been beaten by someone from Divine Sword Peak."

Hmm? Hearing this, the Third Elder was taken aback. Weren't things fine just now? And they had already informed Junior Brother Hongzun, so how could this happen?

Puzzled, the Third Elder still said.

"Then I'll accompany Junior Sister to Divine Sword Peak."

After all, it happened in Dao Yi Sect, and it was their disciples who did it, so the Third Elder thought it best to go personally.

Hearing this, Yu Li did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll trouble Senior Brother."

"Don't mention it. Let's go and take a look."

Immediately, the Third Elder and Yu Li headed towards Divine Sword Peak, while in the kitchen of Divine Sword Peak, Ye Changqing stood in front of He Lu and said calmly.

"I don't agree to the annulment of the engagement, but..."

"Ye Changqing, I will never agree to this marriage. It wasn't possible before, and it's even less possible now. Your despicable actions only make me despise you more. Don't think this will make me yield, I..."

"Block her mouth."

This woman is crazy, and her self-perception is way off. Before he even finished speaking, she had already imagined a whole series of events.

Ye Changqing didn't want to hear her nonsense, so he told Xu Jie to block her mouth and let her quiet down so he could finish speaking.

Hearing this, Xu Jie turned to the disciple from before and said.

"Go ahead, block her mouth."

"Okay, Senior Brother Xu."

Subsequently, amidst He Lu's struggles and curses, her mouth was once again stuffed with the foot wrap.

"You Divine Sword Peak people are too much. I will definitely tell my Master, I... mmm..."

With the foot wrap in her mouth, the world instantly quieted down, allowing Ye Changqing to speak properly.

Looking down at the struggling He Lu, Ye Changqing continued.

"Annulment is impossible, but to be honest, I don't have any feelings for you either. How about this, I'll write you a divorce letter, you take it back, and our engagement will naturally be void."

Annulment is impossible, but divorce is an option.

Upon hearing this, He Lu's eyes instantly reddened, looking at Ye Changqing in disbelief, as if she couldn't believe he would say such a thing.

"Senior Brother, please remove it and let her speak."

After speaking, Ye Changqing signaled the disciple to remove the foot wrap.

"Ye Changqing, what did you say?"

Her first words were a question, to which Ye Changqing replied.

"I said, annulment is impossible, but divorce is an option."

Divorce... Ye Changqing actually wanted to divorce her. Hearing this, He Lu stared at Ye Changqing with a look that seemed she wanted to tear him apart.

Proud since childhood, how could He Lu tolerate the idea of divorce? She immediately started cursing like a shrew.

"Ye Changqing, you dare divorce me? How dare you..."

"Block her mouth."

Before she could finish, her mouth was blocked again, and her words were cut off. Looking at He Lu again, tears of humiliation streamed down her face.

Humiliation, extreme humiliation. When had she, He Lu, ever suffered such humiliation?

But no one paid her any mind. Liu Shuang was talking to Ye Changqing.

"I say we just kill her."

Liu Shuang was straightforward, and she seemed genuinely willing. Hearing this, Xu Jie quickly said.

"Senior Sister, calm down. Killing them might be hard to explain, especially to the main peak."

"What's the problem? Harming Dao Yi Sect disciples, destroying the Dao heart of our Divine Sword Peak disciples, colluding with demons, isn't that enough to sentence them to death?"

Liu Shuang said with an unchanged expression. In response, Xu Jie's mouth twitched. This woman really dared to speak.

"But her Master is still..."

"Then kill them both. If the disciple colludes with demons, the Master can't be much better."

Wow, killing He Lu wasn't enough; she even wanted to kill her Master.

Xu Jie felt his eyelid twitch and shook his head repeatedly.

"There's no need for that."

"Then bury them. Alive or dead, let them disappear."

"This..."

Listening to Liu Shuang talk about how to kill and hide bodies, Ye Changqing was speechless. Could a righteous sect disciple really say such things?

Even more outrageous was that the surrounding Divine Sword Peak disciples not only didn't oppose it, but they also offered suggestions.

"I think Second Senior Sister is right, just bury them. Later, we can say they left on their own."

"Yes, that's feasible, but we need to choose a good burial spot."

"Bury them in the back mountain, no one will find them."

"Not suitable, I think we should choose a place that can't be searched. How about the backyard of the Steward Hall? No one would think of that."

Listen to these outrageous words. He Lu and the other Luoxia Sect disciples turned pale with fear. Is this really the leader of the righteous path in the Eastern Continent? Even a demon sect wouldn't be this bad.
