He was determined, but he saw Li Yang standing by the stove when he looked up.

Jia Feiyu suddenly recalled the first come, first served rule that Li Yang had mentioned earlier. He felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.

Rules were rules.

Even though Li Yang was only an in-name disciple, based on his courage when he rebuked them, Jia Feiyu was sure that Li Yang would not break this rule for his sake.

“What should I do? Will we watch this guy take the egg-fried rice away?”

“Damn it; I should have paid for this bowl of egg-fried rice earlier! If I had paid earlier, I wouldn’t have watched Gao Quan snatch away the last bowl of egg-fried rice!”

Looking at Gao Quan walking towards the stove smiling, Jia Feiyu’s heart became increasingly anxious.

“This guy is usually not so active in doing things. He deserves to die whenever he is only willing to do things after giving gifts.”

“Present!”

Just as Jia Feiyu was silently cursing in his heart, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind like lightning.

“Wait, senior brother Gao, this Junior Brother is willing to offer a marrow cleansing pill! How about exchanging it for this bowl of egg-fried rice you bought?”

Jia Feiyu didn’t have time to think. He took a bottle from his sleeve and raised it as he shouted.

“Eh? Don’t tell me you’re trying to make fun of me!”

Hearing Jia Feiyu’s words, Gao Quan’s face revealed his displeasure.

It wasn’t that the marrow cleansing pill was fake, but that Gao Quan didn’t believe that Jia Feiyu was willing to take out a marrow cleansing pill to exchange for the rice in front of him.

One must know that although the marrow cleansing pill was only a grade one elixir, the success rate of refining it was almost close to that of a grade two elixir. The medicinal herbs required were also 10% more than another grade one elixir.

More importantly, the marrow cleansing pill had the effect of cleansing one’s muscles and marrow. If a cultivator in the Qi refinement realm could take a marrow cleansing pill, it would significantly speed up their cultivation progress!

To put it bluntly, the marrow cleansing pill among the outer disciples was the most respected pill!

Such precious pills were also extremely rare to the outer sect disciples. The monthly distribution would be exchanged for many gifts in the hands of Gao Quan.

But now, Jia Feiyu said he wanted to use the marrow cleansing pill to exchange for a bowl of ordinary egg-fried rice. Even if the rice were made of gold, it would not be worth this price, let alone the spiritual rice!

“Senior brother, you can take the marrow cleansing pill now. I won’t regret it!”

While Gao Quan was still in a daze, Jia Feiyu handed the pill to him without hesitation.

“This …”

Gao Quan’s thoughts began to drift as he sniffed the faint fragrance of the elixir.

It was just a bowl of rice; was there a need to?

Was there something special about this meal that he couldn’t see?

He noticed Gao Quan’s increasingly strange gaze.

An alarm went off in Jia Feiyu’s heart. After knowing each other for so long, Jia Feiyu naturally understood that Gao Quan was so rich that he probably wouldn’t care about a single marrow cleansing pill.

If Gao Quan’s curiosity were piqued, then he wouldn’t have any chance!

Thinking of this, a pained expression flashed across Jia Feiyu’s face. He then took two bottles from his sleeve without hesitation, “Senior brother Gao, there are three marrow cleansing pills here. This is all I have. Just tell me, do you want to trade or not?”

“I’ll exchange!”

When he saw the three marrow-cleansing pills, Gao Quan temporarily threw his curiosity back into his mind.

Gao Quan was naturally greedy for food on regular days. However, if he were to sell these three marrow cleansing pills, the amount of spiritual rice he would get would be enough to feed Gao Quan to death.

It was just a bowl of egg-fried rice. Gao Quan had already confirmed that the ingredients used were the most common, and there was nothing special about it.

Although he didn’t understand why Jia Feiyu was so generous, Gao Quan naturally wanted to take advantage of the situation.

To prevent Jia Feiyu from regretting his decision, Gao Quan immediately took the marrow cleansing pill from Jia Feiyu’s hand. He then stood aside in a good mood and gestured to the egg-fried rice.

Jia Feiyu quickly stepped forward and picked up the golden egg fried rice on the side of the stove.

“You’re so silly, senior brother Gao!

That’s egg-fried rice!!!

Seeing Jia Feiyu quickly eating the egg-fried rice, Fatty wanted to cry but had no tears. He looked at Gao Quan and said,

“Yeah, senior brother Gao, why did you change it? That’s egg-fried rice!”

Another disciple said, his face full of pain.

“Ai … In the end, he still gave it to big brother.”

“No, I can’t watch anymore. I’m going to starve to death.”

The other two also chimed in.

“What?”

Upon hearing the crowd’s words, Gao Quan immediately raised his eyebrows and looked up. Jia Feiyu, gobbling down his food, caught Gao Quan’s eyes.

This scene caused Gao Quan to feel even more apprehensive.

Jia Feiyu could be considered quite generous, so Gao Quan naturally had an impression of him. However, even Gao Quan had never seen Jia Feiyu lose his composure like this.

Just by looking at him, he no longer had the demeanor of a wealthy young master. He was utterly a disaster victim who had been hungry for several days.

In addition, the other disciples had looks of pity in their eyes.

At this time, Gao Quan hesitated momentarily before suddenly walking in front of Jia Feiyu and extending his hand to hand the pill over to Jia Feiyu.

“Junior Brother, looking at you, why do I feel like I’ve suffered a loss? Since outer sect disciples surround you, I won’t take advantage of you.

Remove the marrow cleansing pill and leave me half a bowl of rice. How about it?”

“Don’t even think about it!”

After hearing Gao Quan’s words.

Jia Feiyu didn’t say anything and immediately turned around. Without even looking at the marrow cleansing pill, he directly turned his back to Gao Quan and sped up the movements of his hands.

Under everyone’s gaze.

Jia Feiyu finished the bowl of egg-fried rice in two or three mouth fulls.

Then, he let out a satisfied sigh and showed a proud expression to the others.

“Hiss! Just how delicious is this meal to make Jia Feiyu this greedy!”

Seeing Jia Feiyu’s actions, Gao Quan was even more surprised. He couldn’t help but look at Li Yang standing to the side.

“Just how good is this person’s skill?”

“If it were just one person, it would be fine. But these people are so anxious; this meal must be extraordinary.”

“[What a pity. I didn’t get to taste the rice that can be exchanged for three marrow-cleansing pills!”

At this moment, Gao Quan was looking at Jia Feiyu, his heart filled with anticipation for Li Yang’s egg-fried rice.

However, even a clever housewife can not cook a meal without rice.

Now that there wasn’t even any rice left, no matter how rich Gao Quan was, Li Yang couldn’t make another bowl of golden egg fried rice.

Gao Quan could only suppress the curiosity and anticipation in his heart. He only remembered this place in his heart and was left alone.
