Chapter 12: Fire Realm Eatery, 'Black Butcher
Luo Feng looked at the wine jar and roasted meat in Mo Luo Sa's hands and couldn't help but laugh: "You've been quite comfortable and carefree these past few days. Even on the way back, you couldn't bear to put down the wine and meat in your hands."
"Comfortable and carefree?" Mo Luo Sa took a large bite of meat and shook his head repeatedly, "Not comfortable or carefree at all. Master, you told me not to cause trouble! For over an epoch, I haven't dared to provoke any trouble at all! It's been so stifling; I've just had to endure, endure, and endure!"
"Very stifling?" Luo Feng pressed.
Mo Luo Sa nodded repeatedly: "Huyang City's forces are mixed, and there are some lunatics who love to fight and deliberately pick quarrels! According to my temper, I would have crushed them with one hand long ago. But Master's orders transcend everything! Even if I were to die, I would not disobey! So I could only endure, turning big problems into small ones, and small ones into nothing."
Luo Feng was curious: "You turned big problems into small ones, and small ones into nothing?"
The World Beast, born from the Great Dao of Destruction, was inherently fierce by nature. Luo Feng was curious about how he managed to endure it.
"I only slightly injured them, letting them feel the gap in strength! Then I just made them pay a small fine," Mo Luo Sa explained hurriedly, "This isn't causing trouble. If I don't fight back when beaten, I'll only be bullied even harder."
Luo Feng nodded: "I understand. A coward would be eaten until not even the dregs are left in Huyang City."
"Master is wise." Mo Luo Sa smiled and couldn't help but take a few more blissful sips of wine.
"Back home, you didn't really like drinking." Luo Feng was curious.
Mo Luo Sa's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Master, since you arrived on the Origin Continent, you haven't properly tasted the local fine wines of the Origin Continent, have you? Some of the wines here taste much better than those back home."
"Let me try." Luo Feng took the wine jar and tilted his head back to take a sip.
As the sip entered his belly, he immediately felt his soul and consciousness being nourished, feeling comfortable and relaxed.
"Interesting." Luo Feng said in surprise, "Since arriving on the Origin Continent, I've only had a cup of Spring Rice wine at the Yanfeng Society, and that wine's taste was relatively restrained. But this wine of yours is domineering. It even has some influence on my soul and consciousness."
How powerful was Luo Feng's soul and consciousness? Yet he still felt a sense of comfort and relaxation.
If a Void True God were to drink this, they would probably be so comfortable they'd feel like they were floating to immortality.
Mo Luo Sa nodded and said: "Creatures just born on the Origin Continent can all swallow the energy of heaven and earth, so there is no need to eat or drink at all. Therefore, their delicacies and fine wines... are not for replenishing energy, but all have some miraculous effects."
"Either they provide very strong olfactory stimulation, or they have benefits for the divine body and soul consciousness, making True Gods very greedy for them," Mo Luo Sa said.
Luo Feng nodded.
He was clear about this point. Ordinary food and drink on the Origin Continent were worthless; only special food and drink could fetch a high price. They generally had miraculous effects like refining the divine body or nourishing the soul.
"A jar of wine like this costs three Chaos Crystals! I have to drink it sparingly too." Mo Luo Sa put it away quite cherishably.
"Are food and fine wine that attractive? Let's go, Mo Luo Sa, take me to have a look." Luo Feng said.
Mo Luo Sa's eyes lit up, his mouth opened wide, and he swallowed the super-large piece of roasted meat in one gulp, then hurriedly said: "Master, rest assured. In the more than an epoch I've been here, I haven't learned much else, but there aren't many food and fine wines in Huyang City that I don't know about. I'll lead the way for you, Master."
"However..." Mo Luo Sa chuckled apologetically, "I'm relatively poor, so I'll need you to pay the bill later, Master."
"Look at how stingy you are. The pocket money you have was all given by me." Luo Feng said, "Alright, hurry up and lead the way!"
"Let's go!" Mo Luo Sa was crisp and decisive, leading Luo Feng out of the cave dwelling.
Under Mo Luo Sa's guidance, after flying for quite a while, the two of them arrived at an ordinary eatery named 'Fire Realm Eatery'. This eatery did not occupy much space and was very inconspicuous in Huyang City.
"In the more than an epoch I've been here, I've eaten a lot of delicacies. This place's Fire Realm Feast is my favorite, and it's not considered expensive." Mo Luo Sa introduced.
Luo Feng looked up.
The name 'Fire Realm Eatery' was integrated into the array, making it quite conspicuous.
"Black Butcher, hurry up and come out!" Mo Luo Sa shouted, while explaining to Luo Feng, "Master, Black Butcher is the owner of this eatery. I've been here many times and am very familiar with him. Moreover, he came to the Origin Continent by breaking through the reincarnation."
"Came to the Origin Continent by breaking through the reincarnation?" Luo Feng was surprised.
Just then, a fat, burly man with hair like steel needles came out to welcome them. This man was covered in scales, had fangs, and even had a pair of fiery eyes, his two eyes appearing like burning stars. He walked out with immense enthusiasm, humble and respectful: "It is an honor for the Fire Realm Eatery that the Exalted One has come here."
This was an Eternal True God!
Since his small, ordinary eatery opened, the number of Eternal True God guests he had encountered could be counted on one hand.
"Hurry up and prepare your signature Fire Realm Feast." Mo Luo Sa urged.
"This way, please." The fat, burly man 'Black Butcher' immediately led the way.
In one of the small buildings inside the Fire Realm Eatery.
Luo Feng and Mo Luo Sa took their seats.
"This Fire Realm Feast requires me to cook it personally, so I ask the Exalted One to wait a moment." Black Butcher said, then respectfully retreated. At the same time, a waiter entered and served some wine and side dishes first.
As soon as the waiter entered, Luo Feng noticed him and was somewhat surprised: "It's you, little fellow?"
The waiter was none other than the young man named 'Suo Zi' from the tribal team Luo Feng had saved.
"Greetings, Exalted One." Suo Zi hurriedly bowed respectfully.
"Hahaha..." Mo Luo Sa laughed, "I've been here many times and often have this Suo Zi come over to serve. Master, you saved them back then, and now meeting in an eatery, it can be considered fate."
"It is quite a coincidence." Luo Feng nodded, "How did you end up in this eatery?"
Suo Zi was very grateful to this kind Eternal True God; after all, without Luo Feng, their entire team would have died back then.
"Reporting to the Exalted One, after Suo Yun and I settled in Huyang City, we also needed to earn Chaos Crystals. Whether it's paying for living expenses or cultivating ourselves, we need Chaos Crystals," Suo Zi said, "I was lucky enough to be favored by the owner, who recruited me to be an apprentice."
"This kid has quite a talent for cooking." Mo Luo Sa said, "Having a good culinary skill can also allow one to truly take root in Huyang City."
Suo Zi immediately said: "I am currently learning from the owner."
"Your owner is also somewhat famous in Huyang City. Coming to the Origin Continent from the legendary Primitive Universe, he was already skilled in cooking. He also learned some culinary inheritances of the Origin Continent... The two merged into one, and among Void True Gods, your owner's culinary skills are considered unique." Mo Luo Sa praised; he could now be considered a gourmet. Suo Zi nodded and said: "I have been working very hard to learn. If I don't learn well and get kicked out, I'll have to go outside the city and risk my life."
Luo Feng listened from the side and asked: "What about the brother who settled in Huyang City with you?"
"Suo Yun became an ordinary guard for a large family." Suo Zi said in a low voice, "He's risking his life."
Luo Feng understood.
An ordinary guard for a large family is nothing but cannon fodder! All the hard and tiring work is done by them charging to the front.
"Both of them are considered talented to be able to find work." Mo Luo Sa said, "According to my observations, about half of the True Gods in Huyang City have to go outside the city frequently to hunt exotic beasts."
Luo Feng also knew this intelligence.
Most of the middle and lower-level creatures on the Origin Continent make a living by hunting exotic beasts, and many are responsible for collecting and processing exotic beast materials; this has already formed a very huge industrial chain.
As for service-type jobs within a large city? The threshold is very high. Without enough talent and strength, one is not qualified to get these service-type jobs.
During the chat.
"It's here, it's here." The eatery owner 'Black Butcher' walked in, and with a wave of his hand, a sumptuous feast appeared, with all kinds of dishes and food, the most conspicuous being the huge, fiery red meat dish placed in the middle.
!.
The meat in the middle radiated a fiery aura.
"Exalted One, when I was in my home Primitive Universe, I became a True God on the path of the Culinary God." Black Butcher laughed, "Later, after becoming a Void True God and coming to the Origin Continent by breaking through the reincarnation, I found it difficult to take root in Huyang City with my culinary skills. So I started learning from scratch, working as a butcher in Huyang City, starting from helping to slaughter exotic beast materials, and step by step understanding the characteristics of exotic beast materials. After five thousand epochs of bitter struggle, I finally achieved something and opened this Fire Realm Eatery."
"Exalted One, please taste my Fire Realm Feast." Black Butcher was quite confident.
In the long history of the Origin Continent, there have been many powerhouses who came by breaking through the reincarnation from the three thousand Primitive Universes, and every Chaos Province has some.
In order to promote his business and attract guests, Black Butcher also tried every possible method!
"Let me try." Luo Feng began to taste it.
Black Butcher watched nervously from the side.
If an Eternal True God likes it and comes frequently, that's a living signboard! Only then can his eatery become more famous and attract more guests.
Luo Feng tasted them one by one; the side dishes and wine beforehand could only be said to be not bad.
When he ate the huge meat dish placed in the middle, Luo Feng's eyes lit up.
"Master, you have to eat it in big bites for the taste to be strong." Mo Luo Sa said. Luo Feng listened and opened his mouth, and one-third of the super-large meat dish immediately flew out, rapidly shrinking as it flew into Luo Feng's mouth.
The meat was large, but once in his mouth, it was easily chewed and swallowed.
"BOOM!!!"
Luo Feng only felt flames spreading from his belly to his whole body, as if refining his entire divine body, and his soul and consciousness felt a kind of warmth.
"Eating the Fire Realm Feast is like swallowing a world of flames; you will feel your divine body and soul undergoing a transformation." Black Butcher said from the side, "You just feel as if you have been reborn."
Luo Feng glanced at him with a smile.
Reborn?
It wasn't that mysterious! But it was indeed very comfortable.
For those with weak divine bodies, perhaps there really is a 'feeling of divine body and soul transformation' and a 'feeling of being reborn'.
"How does the Exalted One find it?" Black Butcher was somewhat nervous.
"Not bad." Luo Feng praised.
Black Butcher could only nod: "This is a delicacy I created myself. The culinary techniques of some top-tier restaurants and eateries in Huyang City are passed down by Chaos Sovereigns or even God Kings; mine can only be considered a small path."
Luo Feng drank a cup of wine and added: "Cultivation is the foundation. Coming from the Primitive Universe, you should be unable to practice bloodline cultivation methods."
"Yes." Black Butcher nodded, "I can only walk the path of laws, but comprehending the source of laws is too difficult! Even though sensing laws is much clearer on the Origin Continent, I have also encountered some bottlenecks and have been unable to break through, which is why I thought of seeking external help. I thought of opening an eatery to earn some wealth and buy some resources to assist in cultivation."
"It's just that opening an eatery is also quite difficult." Black Butcher said.
"Your Fire Realm Feast is not bad; continue to work hard." Luo Feng ate half of it and left the rest to Mo Luo Sa. Mo Luo Sa ate it in big mouthfuls with great satisfaction, and soon swept it all away like a whirlwind.
After paying the fee of 10 Chaos Crystals, Luo Feng and Mo Luo Sa left.
Fire Realm Eatery's 'Black Butcher' led the waiter Suo Zi to see them off outside the eatery.
"Suo Zi," Black Butcher looked into the distance, "Do you think the Exalted One will come again in the future?"
"The Exalted One seems to quite like the Fire Realm Feast." Suo Zi said.
"I hope so."
Black Butcher sighed, "Only if an Eternal True God comes to my place frequently can I attract enough True Gods to come here!"
He was also an invincible existence in his home Primitive Universe, but after coming to the Origin Continent, he had his head bloodied. In terms of strength? In a large city, Void True Gods are everywhere! Like Mo Yu Hu and the others, they all have to go on adventures in the wild.
Black Butcher was extremely proud in his heart; adventures in the wild could cost one's life at any time, and he was unwilling. He lowered his head and started as a butcher, and to this day, he had accumulated quite a few old customers at this eatery in Huyang City.
"Only if I make this eatery bigger can I earn more, and the hope of becoming an Eternal True God will be greater!" Black Butcher turned and walked towards the eatery.
In Huyang City, even just the owner of a small eatery might have an extraordinary background.
Precisely because there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and too many powerhouses, it becomes even harder to stand out.
