Chapter 282 Utilization Value

As Xu Qing touched it, a strange luster spread from his fingertips, giving this ordinary kitchen knife an extraordinary luster again. The spirituality that had once appeared returned to the kitchen knife again.

As Xu Qing touched it, the luster surged like ripples, as if it was excited and happy.

really.

Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he expected, the kitchen knife still had some spirituality that had not dissipated.

Or perhaps it could be said that its previous appearance of losing all spirituality and becoming an ordinary kitchen knife was exactly what it deliberately disguised itself as.

The divine creature conceals itself, and this is how it protects itself.

And no one else could notice this kind of self-protection except Xu Qing, who shared the same thoughts with it.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, it is just an ordinary kitchen knife that has lost all its power and spirituality, and can never be restored to its original appearance.

This also led to the dark cuisine world abandoning it.

Its forbearance and waiting finally allowed it to get what it wished for and return to its real owner.

On the other side, the Eternal Spirit Sword was not to be outdone, exuding its powerful spirit, and its even stronger spirituality crushed towards the kitchen knife almost like a substance.

Xu Qing quickly separated the two kitchen knives, and at the same time he felt a little headache.

Judging from the confrontation between these two kitchen knives, there will probably be more trouble in the future.

But first, Xu Qing took a closer look at the kitchen knife in his hand and said, "I can't always call you a kitchen knife. Since you have the spirituality of the Eternal Spirit Knife, you should have a decent name."

Xu Qing thought for a moment and said, "I'll call you Ruyi."

Everything goes as planned.

The Ruyi Sword was gleaming slightly, as if expressing its joy.

Xu Qing looked at the Yongling Sword on the table and said, "You should know what I'm thinking. Let me be frank, we are not suitable."

The Eternal Spirit Sword remained unmoved.

Xu Qing slowed down his tone and said, "I am grateful that you chose me as your successor. I understand that being the heir to the legendary kitchenware is an extraordinary honor. Therefore, I am grateful. But this does not mean that I have to be dominated by you."

"I am different from your previous heirs. I am a very willful person, especially when it comes to cooking. I hope that the entire cooking process can be chosen and controlled by me."

“I hope we can be great partners, not a subordinate relationship where one dominates the other.”

The Eternal Spirit Sword still did not respond.

Xu Qing couldn't tell whether this was resistance or consent.

He and Yonglingdao had never truly reached the point of mutual understanding.

After all, Xu Qing and Yong Lingdao both have their own dominance and arrogance, and neither of them wants to surrender to the other first.

The scene was momentarily stagnant.

……

In the dark culinary world, they immediately retreated after Kamimae's defeat in the knife skills duel.

Fortunately, the Bright Cuisine World did not pursue them, allowing them to evacuate smoothly.

However, the duel was ultimately a failure, and they returned the legendary kitchen utensils they had already obtained to the bright culinary world.

This is an unacceptable failure for the dark cuisine world.

Roger is waiting for the final result at the base of the dark cuisine world.

When he saw them coming back, each with a frustrated look on their face, he knew the result.

He had said long ago that they would regret it, but no one listened to him.

However, these words only lingered in Roger's mind, and he would not make sarcastic remarks at this time.

But just because Roger didn't say anything didn't mean that others wouldn't cause trouble for him.

Xiang En said angrily, "Why didn't you tell us that Cai Dao's mind would change?"

"Change of heart?"

Roger was also surprised when he heard this, "How is that possible? The intentions in the kitchenware are fixed."

Xiang En sneered, "Stop pretending! You said before that the kitchenware fell into a deep sleep, so it showed a peaceful and serene mind. Don't you know that once the kitchenware wakes up, its mind will change?"

After that, Xiang En told him everything that happened during the cooking showdown.

"I really don't know about this."

Roger said bitterly.

The regret that Roger said was that he thought the kitchen utensil would help its real owner - Xu Qing.

But judging from the results, it did help Xu Qing.

But he didn't expect that the intentions in the kitchen utensils would change.

After all, this was only the second set of kitchen utensil he had made, and nothing like this had happened with the previous set.

"Roche, no matter what, you are to blame for losing this cooking competition!"

Xiang En said coldly.

After saying that, several men in black blocked Roger's retreat, leaving him with nowhere to escape.

Roger didn't want to escape.

At this moment, when he heard Xiang En putting all the blame on him, he didn't feel too much.

As a swordsmith, he has seen this kind of thing many times.

Chefs often came to him and said that the knives he forged were not good, they did not fit the hands, they were not smooth at all when cutting, etc. He made a series of complaints and excuses.

Instead of looking for their own incompetence, they put all the blame on the innocent kitchen knife, as if they would become more powerful by using a new kitchen knife.

It’s just that now, the people who blame him have changed from ordinary chefs to top chefs in the world of dark cuisine.

When it comes to passing the buck, top chefs are indeed more skilled.

Roger thought sarcastically in his heart.

Luo Che said: "You don't have to do this. I won't run away. I will go back with you and explain the situation to the Great Elder."

"Why, do you have another excuse?"

Roger said, "I don't have any excuses. But I do have some value. After all, there is no one else in the world who can create kitchenware with spiritual power except me."

This is quite true.

Roger even surpassed his past self and created kitchen utensils that are spiritual, self-aware, and even able to deliberately change their minds. This is simply unheard of.

It can be said that at this moment, Roger’s value alone is greater than that of all of them.

Luo Che glanced at them and said, "Now, you should protect me well. Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I can help you plead with the Great Elder and reduce some of your guilt."

"you!"

Seeing that the person who was originally supposed to be the scapegoat was now so arrogant, Xiang En was immediately furious.

But what can she do?
She, who lost the duel, was the person most responsible for the failure.

Now that Roger had the golden medal of immunity, the one who would bear the wrath of the Great Elder was Xiang En.

Maybe she really had to please Roche and let him plead with the Great Elder and ask him to forgive her sins.

In terms of utilization value alone, she, the chef Lin who has failed, is not as valuable as Roger.
