Chapter 2012 Offering Food And Wine

The Ever Spring Mistress and the Saintess watched as Lin Mu and Little Shrubby whipped up a whole meal.

From stews of different meats meant for Lin Mu and Little Shrubby, all the way to stir fried Immortal vegetables and herbs, mixed with spicy immortal peppers, to even a few Immortal fruit puddings that were made with the milk of a Eight Horn Grand Prairie Cow.

All of the dishes were something that perhaps only the Emperor might get to eat regularly. And yet, here they were, being made by a man and his beast in the middle of a courtyard. It was safe to say, a tantalizing fragrance filled the entire courtyard along with dense immortal Qi that looked like swaying mist in the air.

"Is it ready?!" The Ever Spring Mistress asked, feeling excited.

"It's all ready, yep." Lin Mu replied. "I also made some meat dishes, if you want to try them." He offered.

"Sure, they look too good to give up!" The Ever Spring Mistress was already feeling her mouth water.

As a Celestial, she didn't really eat much, and even if she did, it was mostly elixirs or top quality fruits. Of course, it didn't mean that she couldn't eat; it was just that they often lost the need to eat.

She only ate as a formality at the gatherings of her organization, where they would discuss various matters.

Other than that, the only other major time she would eat or look forward to it was the gatherings of the Celestial court. The celestial court wouldn't spare any expense in setting up the gathering, as such the food was topnotch too.

"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM~" And sure enough, the Ever Spring Mistress felt like this was even better than that. "How can— Munch~ this be... ~CRUNCH~ SO GOOD!~" She said while stuffing her face.

The crunchy stir fried vegetables mixed with toasted immortal nuts were perfect for her, especially with the kick from the immortal peppers.

"I guess you like it," Lin Mu said with a smile and served some food to the Saintess too. "Would you also like some wine, Saintess?" He asked.

"Sure," The Saintess replied and let Lin Mu pour a cup for her.

"OOO! GIMME SOME TOO!" The Ever Spring Mistress asked.

"Of course," Lin Mu poured another cup for the Ever Spring Mistress. "Did you make this too?" She inquired.

"I did yes." Lin Mu nodded his head. "Though it might not be the best. It was one of my novice attempts. I do have a better batch being brewed. Though it'll take a while for it to be ready." He explained.

"I'll taste it still." The Ever Spring Mistress said. "If I like it, I might give you some of my own wine too."

"Oh? You make wine too?" Lin Mu asked.

"The Ever Spring Mistress is good at making both Tea and Wine." The Saintess chimed in.

"Though my specialty is tea." The Ever Spring Mistress replied.

"Huuup~" Just a single breath was enough to rock Lin Mu's head. "That is... quite something." "Of course. While I'm not as good at with the Dao of Wine, I can still make stuff that'll knock out immortals at least." The Ever Spring Mistress said with a cheeky smile. "Just a few drops might be enough for you." She said before pouring it into a cup.

Lin Mu looked at the minuscule amount of liquid at the bottom.

If anyone else were to see it, they would think that it was the leftover wine after one had already downed a cup. It was such a small amount.

And yet, the intoxicating scent coming from it might knock out a hundred adult men in mere seconds. "Here you go." The Ever Spring Mistress said. "Brace yourself, though." She warned.

"Alright." Lin Mu said and brought the cup to his lips.

As soon as his lips touched the wine, a cooling sensation numbed them. This made him not realize it when the wine had already reached his tongue where the sweet taste coated it.

"Oh!?" Lin Mu felt a rather exquisite sweetness coming from the wine, which he couldn't exactly describe.

It was a sweetness unlike any fruit he had eaten and didn't really seem like wine at first.

"WHOA!" But a couple of moments later, the heat of the wine rushed down his throat.

It was like he had swallowed a fireball as the wine heat up his belly. Lin Mu's stomach rapidly absorbed the wine and extracted the rich energy that was present in it.

'So much Immortal Qi in that?' Lin Mu was surprised. 'This is almost the same as using an entire High Grade Immortal stone... and it was condensed in just a few drops?' He couldn't imagine how it was done.

The level of condensation was not something that could be easily done. After all, the volume of the liquid was less than that of a High Grade immortal stone. But this was just the start. Once the flavor of the wine mellowed out, its effects finally spread.

"Uhh..." Lin Mu's head swayed as the wine finally reached his brain.

His heart sped up, while his face flushed within seconds. It was a foreign feeling to him, and he had never experienced it before.

"Look at him, so red~" The Ever Spring Mistress spoke in the Saintess's ears. "I wanna pinch his cheeks."

But the Saintess narrowed her eyes.

"What wine did you give him?" She asked in a straight tone.

"Just a little bit of my Ichor Essence Wine, hehe~" The Ever Spring Mistress answered.

"You gave him Ichor Essence wine!?" The Saintess's eyes went wide. "Even Transcendent Immortals get drunk in a few drops with that!" She said out loud.

Thankfully for her, Lin Mu was no longer paying attention as the intoxication deepened for him.
