A Cleaver Is Still a Blade, and It Can Turn the Whole Place Upside Down

[Transmigrate + Sweet Romance + Food + Pocket Dimension + Destined Love]

A gentle food cultivator with a mischievous streak x an innocent, haughty, food-loving little merman

The emperor of the Tianyuan Kingdom is gravely ill. The Imperial Preceptor submits a memorial claiming that merman flesh can extend his life.

In an instant, the seas are thrown into turmoil.

Lan Yi, prince of the merfolk, is captured and brought ashore after getting into trouble while playing around. He becomes the remedy that will keep the Tianyuan Emperor alive.

As a food cultivator who has never used a spirit-awakened being as an ingredient, Ji Qingyu finds himself facing a culinary nightmare from the start: turning merman flesh into a dish.

But a determined food cultivator never gives up. Besides, his storage pouch is full of ingredients.

After finally getting through this ordeal, he plans to focus on cultivating and finding a way home, only to discover that he and the merman share an inexplicable connection.

Is this the sort of fate you can’t escape even after changing worlds?

“My lord, what do you think of this meat?”

“Evenly sliced, tender, and not at all fishy. It’s top quality.”

So Ji Qingyu, who had only just opened his eyes, was met with the horror of his subordinates and the fury of the merman.

Ji Qingyu: “Tell me honestly. Were you captured because you went ashore to buy food?”

Lan Yi clutched his tail, his eyes darting away.

Ji Qingyu: “Didn’t your parents ever tell you that little chubby fish like you are especially popular with humans?”

Lan Yi: “What do you know? I’ve always looked like this, and I was still the best-looking one in my clan.”
