Li Nianfan went back to the four-part architecture and took out the frozen wild boar.

The wild boar’s body was big. Its two big trotters were already eaten. This time, Li Nianfan was eyeing its ribs.

This was a boar in the Immortal Realm and it was a demon! It grew up in the wild with fresh air and green surroundings. Its meat was tough with low cholesterol levels and high nutrition. It had no external hormones and no remaining viruses. Overall, it was very healthy.

Li Nianfan smiled. “Today, I’ll personally prepare some Honey Grilled Pork Chop.”

The honey roasted chicken he planned to make the other day did not succeed, so the honey was not put to use. This time, he had to use it.

“Xiao Bai, you’ll do the preparations. I’ll get some honey from the backyard.”

As he spoke, Li Nianfan had started walking to the backyard.

“Alright, my master.” Xiao Bai nodded and walked over with the cutting knife, ready to cut open the wild boar.

The Fire Phoenix stared at Li Nianfan for a moment and said, “I want to look around.”

It sensed that the backyard was extraordinary, so it was curious.

Li Nianfan instantly agreed. “Of course!”

Click!

After opening the backyard door, Li Nianfan walked inside.

The doorway was narrow, so the Fire Phoenix did not walk in from the door. Instead, it flew in from the roof.

Upon entering the backyard, the Fire Phoenix jumped, shocked by the Insights in there.

The Insights were so thick. This…could only be so if a Saint was frequently enlightening in here.

It flapped its wings and landed on a tree to take in the sight of the entire backyard.

Suddenly, its inner heart was touched. A sense of familiarity aroused from within.

Swiftly after, a flashback of long-forgotten memories appeared in the deep end of its mind.

These memories came from the…ancient times!

Phoenixes had nature’s gift of rebirth. Hence, it was able to live until this day. In its past incarnation, it had suffered great trauma. Thus, it had to be reborn. However, after that, many of its memories were missing.

“Spiritual Roots? The backyard is full of Spiritual Roots?” It jumped and almost screamed!

Those were Spiritual Roots! They were extinct in the Immortal Land as Spiritual Roots were not able to sprout anymore!

It could not help flying closer into the backyard. It closed its eyes to feel them.

“Have I…gone back to the ancient times?”

Unknowingly, warmth aroused from within it. It felt like it was a child who had finally returned to the comforts of their home after being away for a long time. Its eyes were moist.

The Insights in the yard could no longer be called Insights anymore as it had all been mixed with the air in fragments!

The extremely thick Immortal Qi! A yard full of Spiritual Roots!

Was this not how it was back in ancient times?

Back then, the world was full of powerful beings with powerful Qi everywhere! How prosperous!

“I never expected I’d ever see the past world again!” the Fire Phoenix mumbled to itself. It could not help looking at Li Nianfan as it speculated, “He must’ve existed since the ancient times. He must’ve seen everything and finally decided to turn this place into a replica of the ancient times from his memory, so he could live in the shell of an ordinary man and live an ordinary life.”

Li Nianfan was walking toward the pond when he called out, “Old tortoise, come here.”

Splash!

The pond water rose, and a gigantic old tortoise gradually crawled out from the water. It went over to Li Nianfan languidly.

Li Nianfan did not mind it. He climbed onto the back of the tortoise and raised his hand to knock on the beehive of the Golden Bees that was hanging on a nearby tree.

He easily collected the honey.

Countless Golden Bees surrounded him, calling out to him with a loud buzz!

“Basalt, Golden Bees, you’re all here!” The Fire Phoenix’s eyes looked at them with friendliness. Its mouth could not help turning into a smile. Its eyes went back to the water. “And that annoying breath, dragon?”

It then fixed its gaze on the tree by the pond. That was the source of the Immortal Qi!

Its body jumped instantly as its eyes sparkled.

It said without thinking, “Chaos Spiritual Root!?”

It could produce Immortal Qi. Even the water in the pond had turned into Spiritual Water. It must be the Chaos Spiritual Root without a doubt!

Although it was still a small sprout, its effect was already so shocking! Once it matured, it would be majestic!

The Fire Phoenix searched its memories of this sprout. Finally, it took a deep breath and gradually spat out four words, “Tree of Sacred Ground!”

“Done!” Li Nianfan’s voice was heard. “Fire Phoenix, wait up. The delicious meal won’t let you down.”

The Fire Phoenix hesitated for a second. It then turned away, stretched out its wings arrogantly, and flew back into the four-part architecture.

Since this expert was pretending to be an ordinary man, it had to play along with him.

Even though it wanted to lick his boots right away, the expert set its character as a phoenix instead of a chicken, so it would not seem right to bootlick him. It had to wait for the right time.

‘The expert’s so good at giving me difficult tests. Although I can’t lay eggs, didn’t you want to ride me? Come on! I don’t mind, be it rough or quick!’

Back in the four-part architecture, Xiao Bai had prepared the pork ribs. The ribs were complete and not cut open. The condiments needed for the dish were already placed by the side. The grill had been set up as well.

Li Nianfan placed the honey by the side. He mashed the apple with some ginger, mixed them with some soy sauce, cooking wine, spice powder, sugar, salt, chili powder, and a few other ingredients to make the sauce.

Following that, he made the lighter control the fire, keeping the flame small to simmer the food. He watched the liquid slowly thicken before taking it off the flame to cool. He then poured in the honey and mixed it, creating a special sauce.

Following that, Li Nianfan dunked the pork ribs into the pot of boiling water to remove its bloody scent while loosening up its muscles.

Once everything was prepared, he placed the pork ribs on the grill and used a brush to slather some sauce on the ribs.

The Phoenix looked at him curiously from the side.

It was not exactly looking forward to the so-called delicious meal. As a phoenix, eating was unnecessary. Even if it had to eat, it would eat the most precious things in the world.

It could tell right away that this was merely a Wild Boar Demon in its Combination realm. Small demons were like junk, and eating this little demon would hurt the phoenix’s dignity.

If it had a choice, it would rather eat the apple or the honey right away.

If this boar knew that its body was being coated with the honey of the Golden Bees, it would probably wake up smiling.

“Whatever. I’ll just pretend that it’s very delicious so I can stay here officially.” The Fire Phoenix made up its mind.

It started to imagine what looks of satisfaction it could use to avoid being exposed.

Li Nianfan saw the unperturbed look on the Fire Phoenix’s face. Instantly, he put in way more effort.

He was merely an ordinary man. He did not have anything to offer, especially things that could impress the phoenix!

He could only come up with this plan. These Honey Roasted Pork Ribs would determine whether the phoenix remained or not!
