Chapter 548 - 340: Cloud Wing Bird! Four Saint Soup! Exploring the Forbidden Land!_2
"The ingredients for the Four Saint Soup are rare, particularly the last one, which is the Spirit Beetle, a specialty of Feng City. It mostly survives in the rice fields and goes deep underground come winter, only to surface after the spring."
"They also used nine snakes, nine chickens, nine turtles, and these nine spirit beetles to make the Four Saint Soup, which was simmered with various medicinal herbs for three hours, and in the end, only a small serving remained."
"Not a single grain of salt needed to be added, and it would still be a delicacy of the human world."
As his voice trailed off, he pointed to the stew pot in front of Qiao Jing.
Qiao Jing had been the adoptive daughter of the City Captain of Coastal City since her youth. Born into a distinguished family, she had tasted too many exotic delicacies to take much interest in this so-called Four Saint Soup.
After hesitating for a moment, Qiao Jing asked in a low voice, "After executing the Saint Master, will you destroy Coastal City? How come I’ve heard that the Sect Hierarch is more inclined to destroy High Willow City? There were even rumors before that the Sect Hierarch was preparing to lay waste to Feng City..."
"Which city will be targeted specifically has not yet been decided,"
The Third Elder waved his hand and said, "The urgent matter at hand is to kill the Saint Master, which is even more important than destroying a city."
Qiao Jing wanted to say more but ultimately remained silent.
She was aware of her status; even as powerful as she was, it would be difficult for her to become part of the inner circle of the Tribulation Ash.
That’s because most of the upper echelons of the Tribulation Ash had been entrusted with the thoughts of the Old Gods, received the "Divine Blessing," and won the recognition of the ancient divine spirits.
