Chapter 55 - Nostalgia Evoked By A Barbecued Meat

’What a pity! If only I had brought with me some spices, then I might have been able to make an even more delicious barbecued meat.’ Jiu Shen thought to himself with a bit of regret.

In barbecuing, there were a lot of factors involved in how to maximize the flavor of the meat. For example, one could marinate the meat using their desired marinade blend. Also, one could brush the meat with their own homemade sauce to add flavor to the meat.

But Jiu Shen didn’t want to waste too much time, hence, he skipped all those processes and just directly threw the meat cubes in the Heaven Trampling Cauldron. Just that the final outcome might not be too flavourful with the lack of spices and preparation. Nonetheless, the Horned Infernal Hound’s meat was still a high-level ingredient after all, so its taste shouldn’t be too bad even without the addition of spices.

The skewered meat cubes were now emitting a dense aroma as it sizzled under the intense heat from Jiu Shen’s wisp of black flame.

Though the black flame was just as small as a person’s thumb, it was hot enough to cook the Horned Infernal Hound’s meat.

"The texture of a dog’s meat is almost similar to a goat’s meat, but the process of cooking the two is greatly different. The goat’s meat is mildly gamey so it needs a lot of preparation in order to lessen the earthly taste and smell in it. As for a dog’s meat, it is surprisingly similar to beef in terms of taste. Just that dog meat is chewier and not as succulent as beef." Jiu Shen muttered to himself as he recalled the skills and cooking knowledge that he had accumulated in his billions of years of life.

Jiu Shen flipped the skewered meat cubes, making them produce another frizzling sound. A wave of beef-like aroma pervaded in the air as a dense white smoke lingered around the Heaven Trampling Cauldron.

One side of the skewered meat cubes was already light brown in color. Jiu Shen knew what the color signified, so he remained meticulous in doing every process in barbecuing the meat cubes.

"Master, is it already cooked?" Lu Sulan could not help but ask when the beefy smell of the Horned Infernal Hound’s cooked meat reached her nostrils.

She had never tasted such high-quality meat before, so she was somewhat eager to have a taste of it. Although she had already tasted the meat of a 7th-rank Emperor realm savage beast, it was still a realm lower compared to the Horned Infernal Hound.

Jiu Shen did not glance at Lu Sulan and continued looking carefully at the skewered meat cubes on the Heaven Trampling Cauldron. With an unhurried tone, he replied. "It’s almost cooked and it should be ready soon."

Lu Sulan involuntary gulped at her master’s words. She covered her nose and closed her eyes to free herself from the salivating feeling, but to no avail, her stomach still produced a faint rumbling sound.

Lu Sulan slightly opened her left eye to take a peek at Jiu Shen. She heaved a sigh of relief after seeing his same neutral expression.

’That was so embarrassing! Good thing master is so focused on barbecuing the meat.’ Lu Sulan’s ears reddened as she thought to herself.

Of course, with Jiu Shen’s sensitive senses, he heard his disciple’s complaining stomach, but he chose to ignore her and just immersed himself in the cooking process. It was many millions of years ago since he had last barbecued meat, so he was somewhat expectant about the result.

Jiu Shen gently poked the barbecued skewered meat cubes. He disregarded the intense heat and checked the texture of the meat to see if it was already cooked.

He nodded in satisfaction after feeling the softness of the meat. "It’s done, but I have one last thing to do in order to add a bit of flavor to it."

With that, Jiu Shen took out another bottle of wine from his storage earring. This time, it was not the Deep Sea Spring Dew, but the Ables Blanc.

The Ables Blanc may be many grades lower compared to the Deep Sea Spring Dew, but what Jiu Shen wanted to add on his skewered meat was the oceanic taste of the Ables Oyster’s honey which was present in the Ables Blanc.

When Jiu Shen opened the bottle of Ables Blanc, an oceanic smell burst forth in the air. It lingered for a little while before it subsided.

Jiu Shen sprinkled drops of the Ables Blanc on the skewered meat cubes in a relaxed manner.

He then kept the bottle of Ables Blanc and nodded his head with a satisfied look as he glanced at the cooked skewered meat cubes in front of him.

He took them one by one and gave half of it to his disciple who was already drooling at the sidelines.

’This lady can sometimes act like a little girl...’ He muttered in his heart after seeing the unladylike expression of his beautiful disciple.

Lu Sulan eagerly took the skewered meat cubes from her master’s hands. She then held one stick of the skewered meat cubes with one hand and gave it a light blow before she took a big bite out of it.

"Munch!"

Lu Sulan’s eyes widened when her tongue came in contact with the meat. She lightly chewed on the tender and soft meat of the Horned Infernal Hound that was still smoking hot.

"Delicious! Although it tastes kinda earthly, but with the addition of master’s wines, the earthly taste could be hardly noticed." Lu Sulan exclaimed as she munched on her piping hot skewered meat cubes.

The meat was surprisingly able to retain its juiciness despite the rough cooking procedure done. Furthermore, the sprinkles of Deep Sea Spring Dew and Ables Blanc made the skewered meat even more aromatic and flavourful. The meat had the oceanic smell of the Ables Oyster’s honey and also its own natural meaty scent.

After taking a bite of the delicacy that he hadn’t tasted for countless years, Jiu Shen’s eyes flashed with a nostalgic look. His lips curved up to form a faint smile as he chewed on the meat.

"Not bad." He said with a slightly emotional tone.
