Name: I’m Just Cooking, Why Are the Demonic Beasts So Nervous?
Author: Chilled Dinosaur

Synopsis

Xie Fan, a food lover, accidentally transmigrates to a world of immortal cultivation and awakens the God of Cooking System!

He thought a world of cultivation would be full of fun, but there’s no internet or air conditioning, and worst of all, the food is terrible!

With the principle that he can give up cultivating immortality, but he can’t give up eating, Xie Fan decides to fend for himself!

The entire sect goes wild!

The disciples: “What is this? How can it be so delicious!”

“Eating a bowl of food from Junior Brother Xie is better than cultivating for ten years!”

The Grand Elder: “Who says cultivators have to abstain from food? With a fragrance like this, how could anyone possibly abstain?!”

Even demon cultivators and powerful members of the demon race from every realm are drawn to Xie Fan’s cooking!

The world-destroying black flood dragon declares:

“I’ve taken an entire city’s people hostage. Get your human Xie Fan out here right now! Make me something to eat! Or I’ll flood this city!”

The demon race launches a full-scale invasion just to seize Xie Fan.

“Our demon race can put up with a lack of spiritual energy. We can put up with being exiled and shunned. But we absolutely cannot accept losing our right to eat Xie Fan’s food!”

“If we could eat Xie Fan’s cooking, who’d bother cultivating demonic arts? I’m defecting!”

Meanwhile, Xie Fan is completely baffled by all this. What is going on? I just cooked a meal. Why are all these people here?

But looking at the spirit cauldron in his hands, already filled with all kinds of cooked demon beasts, Xie Xiaofan seems to understand.

“If I’m going to be a chef, I’ll be the best one. I’ll take the world as my ingredients and the rivers as my hot oil, and cook up a land of peace and prosperity!”
