At this mont, Zhou Yuqing watched the two young girls in front of her with a helpless expression, feeling like a mother trailing behind them.
She was still very young, so why did she feel like this?
The trio had a clear goal: to head straight for the dicine Valley’s special stores that supplied elixirs to other Super Forces, while the Eight Desolate Spirit Realm Bamboo was more catered to First-class forces or ordinary Cultivators.
However, as soon as Liu Rouxin’s attention was caught by a unique street food in dicine City, the course of events took an uncontrollable turn.
Being part of Little Bamboo House, a city jointly operated by the dicine Valley and Refining Sect, the specialties of the three were naturally indispensable.
Apart from being well-known as Intelligence Dealers, the culinary artistry of Little Bamboo House was also unrivaled across the Mystical chanism Continent, so it goes without saying that the cuisine in dicine City was abundant.
Originally, dicine City was already nicknad the "City of Gourt," and with the arrival of players, the variety and richness of the culinary options increased at a terrifying pace.
The 100 percent realistic gaming experience allowed players to enjoy the most authentic Otherworld gourt experience in the ga, capturing the taste buds of countless lifestyle gars with a plethora of cuisines they had never tried before.
These gars had no interest in monster-slaying and leveling up; their greatest joy lay in exploring all sorts of cuisines and advancing their Spirit Chef levels.
And when they discovered that the real-world cuisine could be recreated in the ga as Spirit Food, with different ingredients earning them this classification, the imaginations of the players knew no bounds.
An endless variety of dual-realm cuisines sprouted up like bamboo after rain, with a small portion being terd as dark cuisine, bringing debuffs upon consumption, but the majority had quite potent attribute enhancents.
In appearance and taste, they were all improved by several degrees.
The ergence of nurous new dishes directly shook the culinary world of the Mystical chanism Continent, and the epicenter of this shock was dicine City.
Although Liu Rouxin had tried many delicacies before, it was her first encounter with food so starkly different from the native cuisine of the Mystical chanism Continent, and just the scent alone was enough to stir her heart.
Liu Rouxin had never been one to deprive herself; she wasn’t short of money, nor was she practicing any special Cultivation Techniques, so when she encountered sothing she wanted to eat, she would indulge heartily.
What could have been a short trip of the ti it takes an incense stick to burn, under Liu Rouxin’s lead, ended up taking Su Youyi and Zhou Yuqing off course.
Although Su Youyi was thinking about quickly buying the Elixirs and returning to find her Senior Brother, the food was just too tempting; after a strong initial resistance, she eventually joined Liu Rouxin in their unabashed feasting.
It’s said that n bond over drinks, and naturally, won can do the sa by shopping and dining together.
In Zhou Yuqing’s view, the two were really enjoying their food.
"Feels like babysitting two kids?" Zhou Yuqing murmured sulkily to herself.
Yet she didn’t dislike the feeling at all; it reminded her of the days when she used to hang out carefree with her elder sister, second brother, and younger brother, all of them laughing and curious about everything.
Su Youyi held a sweet treat resembling a sugar-coated hawthorn stick, except it was made with a Ninth-Grade Spirit Fruit, sour and sweet, while also slowly replenishing Spiritual Power.
But for Cultivators of their Realm, it was no more than a dessert.
anwhile, Liu Rouxin really spared no expense on herself, with grilled at in her left hand and a cold drink in her right, her cheeks plump and her lips glistening with grease.
"Wow, how is this grilled at so juicy; the moisture is completely locked inside." Liu Rouxin’s eyes glead as she couldn’t stop praising the skewer of grilled at in her hand, declaring it more fragrant than any she had ever had before.
And what surprised her the most was that it was made by an Abnormal Person with pitifully low cultivation. Comparing them to the Abnormal People in their sect who did nothing but missions and closed-door cultivation all day, the difference was stark.
"Try it, try it!" Liu Rouxin excitedly urged Su Youyi, handing over the remaining hot skewer of grilled at.
On their journey so far, the two of them had been continuously discussing their interests and preferences in gourt food, much like finding a kindred spirit in a perfect lody.
"Burp, I’m full..." Liu Rouxin swallowed the last pastry in the bag and then gently let out a full burp, rubbing her slightly bulged belly with her left hand as she turned to Su Youyi.
"Mmm, I’m full too." Su Youyi was also visibly satisfied, feeling like it had been ages since she had indulged like this.
If she were eating like this beside her senior brother, he wouldn’t mind, but she couldn’t get over the psychological hurdle herself; girls always want to maintain a certain image in front of soone they like, don’t they?
"Are you done eating?" Zhou Yuqing, who had been silent all this while, cast a lofty glance at the two foodies.
"Ha ha ha, I... I accidentally overate." Liu Rouxin scratched her head, feeling a bit guilty; this ti she really had led the team astray, and it wouldn’t be good if she angered Senior Zhou.
Su Youyi also looked sowhat evasive; she was supposed to stop Senior Liu but had unwittingly joined in the feast instead. What was worse, they had been voraciously eating up front and had completely forgotten to share any with Senior Zhou.
However, Zhou Yuqing rely glanced at them with an indifferent expression, reminding them in a tone that was neither light nor heavy: "Now that you’re done, let’s get back to business."
"Okay!"
Liu Rouxin and Su Youyi exchanged glances before unanimously blurting out in a hurry.
With her back to them and out of the sight of Su Youyi and Liu Rouxin, the corners of Zhou Yuqing’s mouth revealed an almost imperceptible smile.
Although they had taken a bit of a detour, they were still more or less on the right track. Now, they were very close to their destination, an unassuming little Alchemy Room.
Liu Rouxin and Su Youyi, having composed themselves, followed Zhou Yuqing, stepping into the dicine shop like two cute little bunnies.
anwhile, at the city’s eastern gate, a milky white tunneling light descended from the sky, attracting curious glances from the onlookers.
It wasn’t that this manner of arrival was very unusual; in dicine City, all sorts of strange people could be found. It was simply that there was sothing indescribable that drew even the onlookers’ attention, despite not seeing the person itself but just a tunneling light, they were irresistibly drawn to look over.
The tunneling light dissipated, revealing Yue Bai’s elegant and intelligent figure to the crowd, her ears on her head and the tail behind her exposing her identity.
"A Half-orc?" The spectators were sowhat surprised in their hearts.
If it were a Great Demon of the Demon Clan undergoing Transformation, most would shift into a complete humanoid form, while it’s usually only Half-orcs who would habitually retain their beastly features.
"My goodness, how beautiful!" The gars watching Yue Bai could not help but think this in unison. Their gazes were srized for a mont before they regained their senses after a breath.
"What is this? When did I get Chard!"
The gars, snapping back to reality, soon realized sothing wasn’t right and looked at their status panels, indeed finding a [Charm] abnormal status effect there.
