Chapter 102: Xiao Wu: Is Soul Beast Meat This Valuable

~6 min read 1,156 words

Inside the gourmet shop

"Thank goodness we came early!"

At this moment, Zhang Sanfeng, Song Yuanqiao, and Zhang Cuishan inside the gourmet shop silently felt relieved.

Because of this membership card, everyone had brought one extra person.

Su Mu's small shop, barely a hundred square meters, had half its area taken up by the kitchen.

The remaining space wasn't enough for all of them to enter together.

Helplessly, Su Mu could only tell them to line up.

"Owner, please bring three portions today!"

Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao, standing at the front of the line, respectfully addressed Su Mu.

Behind them, Zhang Cuishan glanced curiously around the room.

After ordering, Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao pulled Zhang Cuishan down to sit.

Looking around, they saw two groups already present in the gourmet shop.

One group was Jianghe and Yang Xue, whom they had met a few times before.

The other group consisted of two men in gray robes—Zhang Sanfeng didn't recognize them.

But Zhang Sanfeng merely wondered for a moment, then paid them no further attention.

After all, he had arrived early and already had a seat.

"Owner, same as before—three portions!"

After Zhang Sanfeng, Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji arrived.

They first sent their brother Xuan Nan to secure a seat, then came forward to order.

Cha Cha, handling the cash register, silently noted it down.

Only then did Abbot Xuan Ci and Monk Xuanji take their seats.

Jianghe and Yang Xue, who had arrived earlier, saw the familiar faces of Zhang Sanfeng and others and felt nothing unusual.

Meanwhile, Ling Shuangxue and Huang Shaotian were secretly startled.

"Sis, are all these people guests of the gods?"

Huang Shaotian, also a Level Two Inspector, frowned as he studied this motley crowd.

Although his power had been suppressed upon entering, preventing him from sensing others' strength,

from their breathing and footsteps alone, not one of them was weak.

"Don't waste words—after you taste the food here, you'll understand!"

Ling Shuangxue raised an eyebrow; she was the girl who had come to the shop yesterday.

After yesterday's events, she now held an unusual faith in the gourmet shop and in Su Mu.

"Alright, got it, sis!"

Hearing he wasn't to speak further, Huang Shaotian sighed, lowering his head in gloom.

As the two whispered, on the other side, Ying Zheng, Zhu Qizhen, Jiang Yuyan, Stark, and others also finished ordering.

"Brother, is that a celestial?"

Entering the gourmet shop, Hearing Xiao Wu whispered to Tang San beside him, staring ahead at Su Mu.

The moment the question left her lips, Tang San swiftly clamped his hand over her mouth.

"Xiao Wu, show respect to the owner!"

He gently warned her—after all, she was new and had never seen Su Mu's terrifying power.

Tang San feared Xiao Wu might speak carelessly and show disrespect.

If so, she might suffer dearly.

"Oh, alright!"

Tongue out, Xiao Wu gave Su Mu a careful look and found nothing unusual—he didn't seem different at all—so she dismissed it.

"Owner, excuse me—please bring two full sets!"

Tang San respectfully requested, ordering two full sets of all dishes.

Beside him, Xiao Wu took the chance to study Su Mu, her watery eyes holding a trace of disappointment.

The celestial before her didn't match her expectations.

But the next instant, as disappointment washed over her, the scene before her darkened abruptly.

In an instant, Xiao Wu felt herself standing amid an endless starry void.

"Roar!"

A furious roar echoed, and Xiao Wu turned toward the sound.

In the void, ten-thousand-year and million-year soul beasts roared wildly.

At the void's end, a figure wielded a knife, casually slaughtering them as if killing chickens.

"Gulp…"

Instantly, a terrifying dread surged from her bloodline, overwhelming her completely.

"Xiao Wu!"

At the critical moment, Tang San's voice called out beside her.

In an instant, the vision shattered—Xiao Wu's consciousness returned!

"Brother!"

Seeing Tang San before her, Xiao Wu, terrified beyond measure, rushed into his arms.

"It's alright, Xiao Wu!"

Seeing Xiao Wu like this, how could Tang San not understand?

Given Xiao Wu's personality, he had already reminded her.

But she clearly hadn't taken it to heart.

Just now, while staring straight at the shop owner, Tang San had already sensed something was wrong.

One cannot stare at an Immortal for long here.

Xiao Wu's sudden outburst actually made many in the crowd laugh.

You scammed them before.

Now look, you've been taught a lesson by the Immortal's aura!

To dare show no reverence to an Immortal, you truly wish to die!

Among the crowd, Yue Buqun, Abbot Xuan Ci, Jianghe, and others were very familiar with that feeling.

Seeing Xiao Wu's state now, they knew she must have seen it too.

Unconsciously, all of them showed faint smiles.

Little Chili, who had already sat down, looked at Stark with a hint of confusion.

"Ahem, you must maintain respect for the shop owner!"

Glancing at Xiao Wu, Stark coughed lightly and whispered a reminder to Little Chili.

However, fortunately, he had mentioned this point to Little Chili before coming.

That is why the incident involving Xiao Wu did not happen.

On the other side, Tang San sat down with Xiao Wu and, out of concern, touched the latter's forehead.

"Brother, I understand what you said now!"

After half-day's effort to calm down, Xiao Wu came to her senses and said to Tang San.

What she saw just now was truly terrifying.

Even those extremely fearsome ferocious beasts were merely simple ingredients in the hands of an Immortal.

Such a existence is truly terrifying.

"Ahem, Xiao Wu, actually the shop owner is quite good!"

Coughing lightly to prevent Xiao Wu from continuing to speak nonsense, Tang San interrupted the topic.

And inside the food shop, with Tang San and Xiao Wu seated.

For a moment, the others—Ying Zheng, Stark, Zhang Sanfeng, and so on—turned to look.

"Young friend Tang, the ten-thousand-year spirit beast meat for today!"

The first to speak was Stark, who was nearby.

For him, the effect of ten-thousand-year spirit beast meat was probably greatly diminished.

But for Little Chili, it would certainly be excellent.

So, Stark had already boasted about it long ago.

"Oh, alright, I brought it for you!"

Saying this, Tang San touched the spirit tool at his waist, then took out the ten-thousand-year spirit beast meat.

This had been agreed upon in the members' group chat, so Tang San had specifically brought it this time.

After distributing the spirit beast meat, seeing the confused Xiao Wu, Tang San offered an explanation.

"Pity, I don't have hundred-thousand-year spirit beast meat; otherwise, I could sell it for even more!"

With a sigh, Tang San shook his head.

Meanwhile, Little Chili, hearing that Tang San had exchanged the ten-thousand-year spirit beast meat for three hundred thousand taels of gold.

Her eyes immediately sparkled!

Is spirit beast meat that valuable?

Then perhaps she should sell Er Ming!
