Chapter 2720 isn't entirely out of the question.
Ye Changqing did put in a lot of effort to make this happen peacefully.
They didn't just whip up a few dishes to fool the old man and young man from the Tiefeng tribe.
Of course, from the old patriarch's perspective, even if Ye Changqing just showed off a few skills to fool these two guys, it wouldn't be a problem at all.
Those country bumpkins have never tasted anything this good. They'd be completely mesmerized by even a simple bowl of noodles.
The more serious Ye Changqing was, the more the old patriarch craved it. What's more, there were even a few dishes that he had never eaten before.
Looking at the tempting dishes in the pot, their aroma slowly wafting out, the old clan chief's mouth watered uncontrollably.
So he insisted on accompanying her to this meal, no matter what.
Facing the old clan chief who was drooling beside him, Ye Changqing smiled.
"Senior, it would be best to let them handle this themselves. If they can avoid taking action, that would be the best outcome. I'll trouble you to keep me company tonight."
Ye Changqing rejected the old patriarch's proposal, even though he did not doubt the old patriarch's ability.
Other means could be used to force the Tiefeng tribe to release the people, but it would likely require physical force, and there's no guarantee that nothing unexpected might happen during that time.
Now that there is still a possibility of negotiation, Ye Changqing naturally prefers peaceful talks, after all, he is not a war maniac.
Despite his rejection, Ye Changqing still invited the old clan chief to join him at the table.
The old clan chief nodded repeatedly, beaming from ear to ear. He was so happy to be able to eat something hot.
He immediately nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile, outside the room, the elders and young people of the Tiefeng tribe also smelled the aroma wafting from the fire room.
The young man wrinkled his nose, took a deep breath, and sighed.
"Old man, it smells so good."
"Hmph, what a loser. It's just a few petty tricks, and you can't even handle it? You're so ignorant."
The old man, however, scoffed indifferently, as if the fragrance had no effect on him whatsoever.
At first, the old man was able to keep his composure, but as the aroma grew stronger, even he couldn't help but start swallowing.
Putting everything else aside, the aroma is indeed tempting, making one want to eat it.
Unbeknownst to them, the grandfather and grandson's gazes were fixed on the direction of the kitchen.
He stared intently, as if he were looking at some priceless treasure.
"Old man, this guy seems to have some skills."
"Don't panic, let's wait and see."
Ye Changqing's cooking skills seem to be extraordinary; the aroma is unlike anything the grandfather and grandson have ever smelled before.
The longer they waited, the more anxious they became, their hearts pounding like a cat's claws, always wanting to see what Ye Changqing was doing in the kitchen.
But I couldn't bring myself to admit it, so I could only wait and suffer.
As the grandfather and grandson waited anxiously, the meal was finally ready.
Although there weren't many people, Ye Changqing still prepared a large table full of food.
When the food was finally served, the old man and the young man stared wide-eyed at the delicious dishes that looked and smelled wonderful.
This dish is truly outrageous! Even a self-proclaimed knowledgeable elder was stunned by the sight of this feast before him.
This kid has this trick up his sleeve?
As for the young man standing to the side, he was drooling uncontrollably.
"Don't just stand there, everyone, eat up! Let's chat while we eat."
Seeing the grandfather and grandson looking like this, Ye Changqing wasn't surprised and said with a smile.
That was exactly what everyone at the table had been waiting for, and they immediately prepared to start eating.
However, since it was their first time, the old man and the young man were obviously inexperienced, so they were a bit reserved at first. Although their movements were somewhat impatient, they at least maintained some decorum.
But Tian Lin, Miao Qianqian, and the old patriarch on the side were completely different.
You're eating Ye Changqing's food, and you're still acting all high and mighty, putting on airs.
Therefore, the three of them were even faster. Before the old man and the young man could even pick up their chopsticks, they had already put the first bite of food into their mouths.
Upon seeing this, the old man and the young man were stunned. What had just flashed by so quickly that it almost left an afterimage? Was it your hands that were picking up food?
They stared in astonishment at the old patriarch, Tian Lin, and Miao Qianqian.
Is this even humanly fast?
However, seeing the three of them completely ignoring everything and just eating with their heads down, while the food on the table was disappearing quickly, Ye Changqing even spoke up to remind them.
"Senior, if you don't eat now, there won't be any left."
"Damn it, leave some for me."
Immediately, the old man disregarded everything else and joined in the eating, while the young man was equally unwilling to be outdone.
Before, they had only smelled it and looked at its color, but now, they finally got to actually taste it while it was still hot. One bite, and the flavor instantly astonished both the old man and the young man.
It's indescribable; how can there be such delicious food in this world?
After taking one bite, the grandfather and grandson couldn't stop eating. With such delicious food in front of them, who could resist? Of course, they would eat it if they could.
The group devoured the food in a flash, and even at the end, the old man still looked like he hadn't had enough, grumbling and cursing at the old clan chief.
"Is this how you treat your guests? Didn't you say you were treating us to dinner? Why are you taking it?"
"Old man, you should be grateful that you can have this much food."
The old clan chief, naturally, was not to be outdone. With such delicious food before him, why would he bother with all this nonsense?
However, it is undeniable that the old man was indeed amazed by Ye Changqing after the meal.
Although they hadn't yet gotten to the main point, the old man already felt that this matter wasn't entirely unacceptable to discuss.
So, before Ye Changqing could speak, the old man took the initiative to speak.
"Kid, it's not impossible for my Iron Peak tribe to release the people. We can talk about it."
"I would be more than happy to do so."
If we can talk, that would be best; Ye Changqing wouldn't refuse, as that was his original plan.
Looking at Ye Changqing's smiling face, for some reason, the old man felt much more pleasing to the eye.
Look at this young man, with his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and his upright demeanor. He's definitely an outstanding person, someone worth befriending.
Mo Ming took a liking to him, and the rest of the conversation went very smoothly.
Tianlin and Miao Qianqian took the initiative to clean up the dishes, and the old clan chief even personally brewed tea.
The group sat together, drinking tea and discussing how to resolve the issue.
"Actually, just as you said, your human race and our barbarian god race don't really have any grudges. The fact that you're fighting to the death in the outer heavens has nothing to do with our barbarian god race. Releasing people isn't impossible."
After taking a sip of tea, the old man spoke slowly, but Ye Changqing frowned upon hearing it.
