Back upstairs, Yao Ziyan had already set the table with the cooked meal.
There were two dishes: shredded pork with fish flavor and braised pork. There were also two bowls of rice.
Though the meal was simple, it exuded a strong fragrance that made one's mouth water. Naturally, the ingredients used were not ordinary; they were rich in spiritual energy.
After sitting down, Luo Chuan asked, a little surprised, "Did you learn to make these from the cooking tutorial?"
Yao Ziyan nodded and smiled. "Yes. I thought the cooking methods for these two dishes were very novel, so I learned them."
"And the ingredients..."
"They're all from the kitchen."
Luo Chuan nodded, feeling a hint of joy. Unexpectedly, the system had shown a thoughtful side!
Even though it was her first time cooking, both dishes were delicious. Luo Chuan ate a lot, thoroughly enjoying the meal. It had a sense of home.
In the afternoon, after eating and drinking, Luo Chuan basked in the sun in front of the store as usual.
Wei Qingzhu and her two friends arrived at Origin Mall, as they usually did. Not long after, Zhou Hu and his group also came to the store.
Soon, they all noticed the changes in the machines. Yao Ziyan briefly explained to them.
"I didn't expect there to be free things in the owner's shop!" Wei Qingzhu said with a light smile, glancing at Luo Chuan, who was dozing in front of the store.
Luo Chuan remained unmoved, his eyes closed.
Yao Ziyan explained at the right moment. Hearing that they could personally experience the hunting of prey by powerful beings, everyone was shocked.
"But the time is a bit short, only one day," Zhou Hu sighed helplessly.
"Zhou Hu, don't complain about getting something for free," Song Qiuying gave Zhou Hu a look. "It's great that the things in the owner's shop can be free for one day. What more do you want?"
Zhou Hu smiled sheepishly but didn't argue.
Almost all of them chose the latest cooking tutorials. Soon, bursts of exclamations were heard.
Although it was called a cooking course, it was really about much more than just cooking.
"The things in the owner's shop are truly extraordinary!"
This thought occurred to everyone.
...
Time passed quietly.
In the blink of an eye, several days had gone by.
Today was different because the jelly lotion, which refreshed every seven days, had finally arrived!
Early in the morning, when the door was opened, it was deserted outside with no one around.
Old customers of Origin Mall knew the boss opened the store at a fixed time every day. After opening the store, the first thing he did was have breakfast.
It must be mentioned that Yao Ziyan had an incredibly terrifying talent for cooking. In these short days, her cooking skills had far surpassed those of Fengxian Tower. The food was delicious!
To avoid watching the boss eat delicious food, old customers tacitly agreed to come back after the store had been open for a while...
After breakfast, as Luo Chuan was about to enter the Tower of Trials to relax, he heard footsteps.
A man in black approached.
The man looked about thirty years old and was quite ordinary-looking, the kind that would blend into a crowd.
There was no trace of aura from his body, making him appear like an ordinary person. This was because he had completely concealed his spiritual power.
Luo Chuan narrowed his eyes. The man was at the peak of the questioning realm, his strength just barely noticeable.
It seemed that there had indeed been a lot of experts in the questioning realm in Jiuyao City recently...
"Origin Mall, Origin... To actually dare to name it Origin, this store is interesting!"
The man looked at the plaque of Origin Mall with an expression of interest on his face.
