Super Complement

They were precisely the Four Great Sect Masters of North Sea.

They had originally wanted to directly strike up a conversation with Yi Feng, but since it took a while for the poisonous fog to dissipate, they only dared to hang a hundred or so yards behind Yi Feng.

"The one who was just here stayed for a very long time."

The Heng Tian Sword House Sect Leader said.

"Indeed, I also don't understand what he was doing here."

The Tai Yi Valley Sect Leader said, equally puzzled.

Just as she finished speaking, she discovered that she had stepped on something. When she moved her foot away to take a look, she froze in place like an icicle.

"This is..."

"Is this a Divine Hidden Snake, an emperor-level demon beast!?"

She murmured.

Hearing this, the others crowded over to take a look, and they too sucked in a breath of cold air.

"That's right, it's a Divine Hidden Snake."

"Don't be fooled by its small snake-like appearance. Although it looks no different from an ordinary little snake, it is a bona fide emperor-level demon beast. Even the four of us combined are no match for it!"

The Heng Tian Sword House Sect Leader said in shock: "Only one snake head remains; it must have been done by that man from earlier."

"Take a look at the ground over there!"

Just then, the Sect Master of Tianlong Valley cried out in surprise as well.

Hearing his shout, everyone rushed over to see. They instantly discovered the remains of food scraps and soup broth on the ground.

Despite the cold weather, wisps of warmth still emanated from them.

"Wait, this meat, could it be...could it be Divine Hidden Snake meat?"

"And this mushroom, isn't this...isn't this a Snow God Mushroom?"

"It really seems to be a Snow God Mushroom!"

"Hiss!"

"He actually...he actually used the Divine Hidden Snake meat and the Snow God Mushroom, treasures of heaven and earth, to cook soup, leaving the remnants here! What kind of immortal chef does this!?"

Seeing the food scraps on the ground, the four sect masters' eyes widened in shock, unable to find the words to describe their amazement.

"If I'm guessing correctly, the anomalous sign that appeared in Yi Xian Valley recently was caused by the birth of this Snow God Mushroom."

"What a pity! This treasure of heaven and earth ended up boiled in soup and drunk by that man from earlier."

The Heng Tian Sword House Sect Leader had a complex expression on his face.

This was equivalent to saying that they had lost their chance at obtaining the valley's treasure.

But it was true that a powerful expert had already harvested it, so they weren't too hung up over it. After all, the strong prey on the weak.

But using such a treasure to simply make soup, then leaving the remnants strewn on the ground—such waste was something they found very hard to accept!

"Could that person have entered Yi Xian Valley just to drink this bowl of soup?" The Cang Hai Mountain Sect Leader asked, also feeling conflicted.

"I don't think so. It seems more likely he was passing by, saw the Snow God Mushroom, and simply cooked it into soup on a whim."

The Tai Yi Valley Sect Leader said, his expression ugly.

Hearing this, the others couldn't help twitching their mouths. Their hearts felt extremely uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, it seemed to be just like that.

"However, don't be fooled by these scraps—they are probably fortifying elixirs!"

Just then, a greedy look appeared in the eyes of the Heng Tian Sword House Sect Leader as he stared at the remnants on the ground and licked his lips. "Why don't we..."

His words immediately earned him eye-rolls from the other three.

"While we don't deny these scraps are fortifying, don't forget we are the leaders of the Four Great Sects. Scrounging for someone else's leftovers—what has become of us?"

"Right. No matter how powerful that person is, we can't be reduced to eating his leftovers."

"As sect leaders, we must maintain some dignity."

"Come on, let's hurry and catch up to that man. We've missed our chance at the treasures, but becoming acquainted with an expert still has its merits."

The four set off again, trailing the departing Yi Feng at a distance of over a hundred yards.

But they had just started off when they realized one of their number had gone missing - the Heng Tian Sword House Sect Leader was nowhere to be seen.

"Where did Jian Hengtian go?"

The Tai Yi Valley Sect Leader couldn't help asking.

"I don't know. He was just here a moment ago," the Cang Hai Mountain Sect Leader replied, also puzzled.

Not far behind them, Heng Tian Sword House Sect Leader Jian Hengtian had quietly snuck back to the site of the scraps.

"Dignity be damned! Who knows, eating this stuff might end up benefiting me?"

"Besides, nobody will see me anyway."

He stealthily looked around in all four directions. Seeing nobody else was around, he bent down and, with lightning speed, licked up a mouthful of the food scraps.

"Bleh!"

That one mouthful made his entire body shudder.

He clearly felt the power within him rising rapidly, and even his innate talent and cultivation base were improving.

In that moment, his eyes shone as brightly as stars.

"Hahaha!"

"This is practically an ultra-fortifying elixir! Those three fools don't know that these scraps...no, divine soup are extraordinary with just one look. Luckily for me, I saw through it all at first glance."

He opened his mouth, about to burst into loud laughter, but quickly covered it up when he remembered the other three were not far away. His face still wore a smug grin.

Then, as quick as lightning, he licked up all the food scraps on the ground until they were spotless.
