This is troubleso... Although Ren Suo knew he could leave safely, he was still very nervous. This was especially true after he greeted two custors and, almost effortlessly, started cooking—which actually just involved taking food from that all-providing drawer.
His True Form had brought Dong Chengling. Ren Suo exerted all his strength to remain calm, asking evenly, "What would you like to eat?"
Besides them, there was another ’normal custor.’ But now, of course, his True Form was the priority; any life story could wait.
He didn’t know what his True Form and Dong Chengling had discussed, but Dong Chengling remained very quiet. Ren Suo served her a highly beneficial Chicken Soup Set al. She ate it quickly and then left. Naturally, Ren Suo couldn’t possibly feed his True Form, because being full would essentially prevent any return to the Ghost Stall.
Ren Suo was constantly distracted, sensing the Bond Thread within his True Form. However, even after they left, he didn’t detect any change in the Bond Thread between Dong Chengling and his True Form. Although it remained stable, its power hadn’t increased.
Couldn’t it level up? Is it because I leveled it up a few days ago, and there aren’t enough Experience Points?
This is really troubleso now...
While Ren Suo was pondering, his True Form arrived again—this ti bringing Lin Xianyu.
His True Form indeed followed Ren Suo’s original plan, bringing people over in batches to attempt to form multiple Bonds in a single night.
Ren Suo had been exploring the Bond System for so ti. He realized that the most crucial aspect of forming a Bond with soone was to be alone with them. Group activities, it seed, could only increase Experience Points at best; a Bond upgrade was practically impossible.
It was essential to make the other person realize they shared a special, secret relationship unique to just the two of them. Only then could a Bond be established.
For example, with Li Dan, Ren Suo was the only one who could help him sleep deeply. With Yu Kuangtu, Ren Suo was currently the only one who knew he pretended to work at night to woo girls.
Through information from the ga system, Ren Suo knew the way to return to his True Form. He needed to increase the number of Bonds as much as possible and rapidly strengthen the ’Fight Side by Side’ Ability. This way, the thread tethering his soul would gain enough strength to pull it back from the female shop owner into his True Form.
This was essentially a tug-of-war. Ren Suo needed to increase the number of people on his side.
At any other ti, Ren Suo might not have been confident about leveling up and forming Bonds with multiple people quickly. But now was an excellent opportunity. Dining at the Fairy Palace Food God’s Ghost Stall was clearly a superb chance for private interaction.
It was like in a xianxia novel where two people fall into an ancient tomb and jointly obtain fortuitous opportunities. With no competition between them, their camaraderie would skyrocket. If it were a man and a woman, they might even be afflicted by so love poison requiring intimate acts to dispel...
Therefore, Ren Suo imdiately thought of having his True Form bring each person over to enhance the quality of their Bonds. However, he wasn’t very confident about this plan.
Although the Desire Holy Wine and Prayer Holy Water temporarily gave his True Form the ability to act, he was completely unsure of their effectiveness or whether he could successfully convince the won. But this was the clear path indicated by the ga system. Ren Suo couldn’t think of any other way, so he had to brace himself and proceed.
Now, he could only hope that the events of the tenth day’s ga experience would fully materialize. That ant, in a short while, Ren Suo’s soul would return to his True Form, and the female shop owner would once again be controlled by the ga system.
Lin Xianyu, that young lady, sat down extrely excited. Ren Suo hastily served her the Abalone Sea Cucumber Shark Fin Belly to satisfy her. After his True Form departed with her, Ren Suo suddenly felt a surge of vitality!
From his True Form’s side, a thin thread had appeared!
Though it was just one additional thread, Ren Suo felt the ’Light and Heat’ within him being pulled by an invisible force. It subtly flowed toward the nearby Pure White Mini Holy Grail, yearning to return to his True Form!
But perhaps because his soul was separated from his body, Ren Suo, even after calming himself, couldn’t access information from the Bond System. However, he didn’t mind. Knowing this thod would work as long as his True Form had established a Bond was enough!
The third to arrive was Qiao Muyi.
She was the most troubleso. As soon as she sat down, she constantly scrutinized Ren Suo, making his hair stand on end, and then asked a few barbed questions. Fortunately, Ren Suo reacted quickly. Perhaps the Food Goddess’s body provided a significant cognitive boost, as he deftly parried her inquiries. Reluctantly, she had no choice but to eat obediently, all the while praising the food and probing whether she could follow the Fairy Palace Food God.
However, the Ghost Stall seed to have so chanism to hurry custors along. In the ga, Ren Suo had never seen anyone eat for more than ten minutes, nor had he seen anyone linger after finishing their al. Although Qiao Muyi was reluctant, she still quickly finished her food and left with his True Form.
Another Bond Thread appeared!
Now, Ren Suo could clearly feel a significant increase in the pull on his ’Light and Heat’ from the Pure White Mini Holy Grail. A portion of it was even flowing back into his True Form through the physical Pure White Mini Holy Grail and its Mark!
It was working!
Lastly, his True Form brought Gu Yueyan. Since she was the last one, Ren Suo also served his True Form a Chicken Soup Set al.
Watching his True Form quietly eat the Chicken Soup Set al, Ren Suo was truly at a loss for words. Everything that had happened tonight was because he craved a taste of the Food God’s Set al, and now his wish was finally granted...
Gu Yueyan’s gaze, however, darted back and forth between his True Form and Ren Suo (as the Food Goddess), sending chills down his spine. Could she have noticed sothing?
Or had his True Form revealed the truth? That couldn’t be, could it? Ren Suo still had a link with his True Form’s consciousness. Although he couldn’t know its specific actions, he could still guide its behavior—for instance, by instructing it not to reveal the truth.
At that mont, Ren Suo felt it—the Bond Thread belonging to Gu Yueyan reconnected to his True Form’s soul!
Moreover, this Bond Thread seed to thicken, its pulling force growing stronger, as if transforming from a silk thread into a steel cable!
Ren Suo’s soul, nearly solidifying into the female shop owner’s form, was slowly pulled through the channel of the Pure White Mini Holy Grail. It flowed back into his True Form under the combined tug of the four Bond Threads.
Ren Suo once again felt light and airy, as if he were about to float up to the sky and never co down. His body was extrely relaxed. Of course, I know this is the sensation of soul transfer, not the prelude to wetting the bed in a dream.
His field of vision split in two again. His bodily sensations beca chaotic. For a mont, Ren Suo couldn’t tell which body he was in. His mouth seed filled with a blissful taste, while his hands felt like they were washing ingredients under cold running water. His legs felt as if he were simultaneously sitting and standing.
Ren Suo involuntarily clenched his sphincter and soon felt his familiar little companion return!
Finally... I have the privilege of my balls aching again!
Ren Suo picked up the Pure White Mini Holy Grail. His soul’s return flow accelerated once more. It was as if a channel connected him to his True Form, while at the other end, four tractors relentlessly pulled him back!
His vision transford, his body changed!
Monts later, Ren Suo had completely returned to his True Form. The first sensation was the rich taste of food in his mouth, followed by the restoration of his vision, hearing, and touch.
He looked up and saw the beautiful and captivating female shop owner standing before him. Seeing her calm eyes, Ren Suo’s own eyes unexpectedly moistened.
Although it had only been a few tens of minutes, Ren Suo had undergone soul transfer twice in a row and nearly faced the crisis of his soul scattering. Now that he was finally safe, he naturally felt a bit emotional.
His first action was to unequip the Pure White Mini Holy Grail. In the future, unless he needed it for Healing others, he would rather carry the Unlimited Fried Chicken Set than this item.
Gu Yueyan saw Ren Suo eating until he almost cried and was montarily stunned. Is it that delicious?
Then she saw Ren Suo actually crying while looking at the beautiful and cute female shop owner. Her mind suddenly filled with many thoughts: Ren Suo’s strange state, his odd requests, his peculiar actions...
After finishing the Chicken Soup Set al, Ren Suo wiped his mouth directly with his sleeve and nodded at the female shop owner. "Thank you for your hospitality."
The female shop owner nodded in response but didn’t speak, continuing to handle ingredients—another custor had arrived.
Gu Yueyan also finished eating. Ren Suo left with her, but he felt as if soone were watching him. Turning around, he saw a head clad in red armor apparently looking at him.
Ren Suo waved. "Goodbye."
The Red Armor shook its head. This old man certainly doesn’t want to see you again.
After leaving the vicinity of the Ghost Stall, Gu Yueyan walked a short distance and suddenly asked, "Are you back to normal now?"
"Hmm? Back to normal?" Ren Suo was puzzled. "What back to... Oh, I’m fine now. Thanks for your concern."
Although he had no idea how his True Form had communicated with Gu Yueyan, Ren Suo decided to just go along with it.
"What’s your relationship with the Food God?"
Ren Suo raised an eyebrow slightly. "No relationship at all."
"Really?" Gu Yueyan asked doubtfully. "Then why were you crying while you ate earlier?"
"That’s because... it was so delicious I cried!" Ren Suo argued stubbornly.
Gu Yueyan frowned slightly and asked, "What do you think of the Food God’s appearance?"
"What about it?... She’s very pretty!"
The person I sculpted looks great, of course!
"You... you didn’t offend her, did you? That’s why you were acting so strangely earlier, right?" Gu Yueyan guessed. "Did you beg the Food God for a al? Was she unwilling and even cast a Spell on you, making you act like a fool? Is that why you kept bringing people here, hoping to beco a familiar face to the Food God? And then, just now, the Food God finally relented and allowed you to return to normal?"
Although I have no idea what she’s talking about, it actually sounds quite plausible!
But, of course, Ren Suo couldn’t admit it. "I didn’t offend her!"
"Impossible! You just said she’s pretty. You must have harassed her, just like you harass Sister Ling! Humph! And to think I even helped create opportunities for you!"
"I did not harass Dong Chengling! And sure, let’s say I harass pretty girls—have I harassed *you*?"
"You—" Gu Yueyan was so frustrated she stamped her foot. By then, however, Ren Suo had figured sothing out and asked, "...Was it you who created the opportunities for to bring the others here individually to see the Food God?"
"Yes. Who else could it be?" Gu Yueyan said irritably.
"...Thank you." Ren Suo raised his index finger. "This is our secret. Don’t tell anyone, okay?"
"I know." Gu Yueyan walked away quickly without looking at him. "I’m not interested in telling anyone anyway."
Ren Suo sighed in relief. He hadn’t expected his True Form to be so clever as to find an accomplice. But why did it choose Gu Yueyan?
As he followed Gu Yueyan out, Ren Suo saw Dong Chengling and the other two waiting at the South Gate. Lin Xianyu was hugging Dong Chengling’s arm like a koala, while Qiao Muyi stood with her arms crossed, seemingly lost in thought. When Ren Suo and Gu Yueyan appeared, all three looked over.
And at that mont, Ren Suo suddenly realized he had a problem—
How am I supposed to explain all this?
