Chapter 672: The Goddess of Food
After taking a few test punches, Su Xiao heard a sharp, terrifying sound.
Clenching his fists tightly, he felt a new power. He had never been this strong before. The feeling was intoxicating. Now, not to mention that he could break through stone with his bare hands, he had the confidence that he could break through not - too-thick metal walls with his bare hands.
After leaving the statistics improvement hall, Su Xiao went to a massage parlor with a sauna that was opened by an ordinary employee. Of course, there were other kinds of services provided here, but Su Xiao just took a relaxing sauna and left.
In addition to some important buildings in Paradise, there were other less important buildings that were opened by contractors or employees. Because of this, Paradise was more like a city, which contained notes of magic, technology, dark mysticism and some technologies from the future.
As for the size of Paradise, Su Xiao didn't know anything about it. The borders of Paradise were now a "restricted area" and only after reaching a certain number of contractors would they finally be opened.
The concept of "forbidden zone" sounded rather mysterious, but it was actually an ordinary desolate place. Once these "no-go zones" are opened, contractors and employees will be able to buy some of the newly opened land and create anything they want on it..
Because of this, there has never been an overpopulation, dense development, or lack of resources in Paradise. Rai has always adjusted to the current number of contractors and employees.
After the sauna, Su Xiao went straight to Xia Restaurant, as he was already very hungry.
On the way, Su Xiao took out the phone used in Paradise and dialed the number.
— Come and have dinner at Xia Restaurant.
— Woof, " said Bubtney, and quickly ran out of the exclusive space.
Five minutes later, Su Xiao, who was standing in the doorway of the restaurant, saw Bubtney.
Pushing open the restaurant's doors, he found that there was no one there.
Xia Tian's business was still not going well.
There was a sudden crash from the back kitchen and a strange smell filled the restaurant...
— What does it smell like? Su Xiao choked on the strange smell. It could easily have been classified as a biochemical weapon.
Bubtney was clearly displeased and began wagging his tail in all directions.
— Another bad luck, damn it, - after these words, the hood began to work and the air in the restaurant quickly became fresh.
— Woof, " said Bubtney, clearly annoyed at being ignored.
Xia ran out of the back kitchen with coriander on her head.
— Have you come?" What will you have? Xia asked and sat down on an empty chair.
Su Xiao was already a regular customer of her restaurant, so she wasn't afraid that he would leave because of this smell or because of her informal behavior.
— What did you just make?" Strange smell...
— Hahahaha, I was just trying to create a new dish, never mind.
Su Xiao was a little confused. If it was someone else, like a new customer, he would definitely go to hell because of this smell, and he finally understood why her business wasn't doing very well.
— On your head...
— Xia touched the top of her head, and when she saw the coriander, she was a little embarrassed.
Bubtney rolled his eyes and seemed to want to say, " We've known each other for a long time, why are you embarrassed».
— By the way, I've recently developed some new dishes, wouldn't you like to...
However, Xia didn't let Bubtny finish. It was as if he had recalled some painful experience, and he desperately shook his head as he looked at Su Xiao.
— New dishes? ".. We're very hungry, so just make some of your signature dishes.
— Branded ones? Good! Xia smiled slyly, got up and went to the kitchen.
Looking at Xia's back, Bubtney became visibly agitated, and his eyes seemed to want to say, " Master, why don't we leave...»
— Cough cough, her signature dishes shouldn't be a problem...
Twenty minutes later, a series of delicacies were placed on the table in front of Su Xiao and Bubtney.
Su Xiao was surprised when he tasted her best dishes. Not only were they delicious, but he could also vaguely feel the power that was spreading through his body, and the tiredness after raising his stats was gradually disappearing.
— This?.. After trying a few more dishes, Su Xiao confirmed that her food really restored his strength. Although her food didn't reach the level of any powerful potions, the effect of eating it wasn't much inferior to that of some simple concoctions.
Bubtney's face was completely smeared with a variety of food. All these dishes were not only able to restore strength, but also had an amazing taste.
All of these dishes were top level delicacies.
Xia, with beads of sweat on her forehead, came out of the kitchen, leaned against the counter and looked at the man and dog who were quickly eating the dishes on the table, and smiled tenderly. - Delicious?
Su Xiao nodded silently.
— Given your skills, even some big guilds will be happy to see you join their ranks.
Hearing Su Xiao's words, Xia shook her head. - Large guilds... Even if they don't reject me, I will reject them. I like this stable life. With them, I will one day die in a derivative world, but enjoying such days is really what I desire. Become part of these so-called " big " guilds like this... It's exhausting, and I don't like the idea of being dependent on other people's mercy, " Xia said and stroked her hair.
Although she looked like an ordinary girl at first glance, if an experienced stylist were to handle her, they would easily turn her into a beauty.
— ...
Su Xiao didn't say a word as he agreed with her point of view. There was really no need for her to become part of a certain faction and worry about making new enemies.
She was still doing pretty well.
After eating his fill, Su Xiao leaned back in his chair.
— As soon as Su Xiao said that, he suddenly found that Xia was immediately in front of him.!
Xia's face was almost directly facing Su Xiao's.
— A total of 395 Paradise coins, " Xia Yi said with a full-face smile, but her smile was a bit sly.
— So cheap?
Under normal circumstances, giving away 395 Heaven coins for a normal meal would have been too high a price, but now Xia was preparing non-ordinary dishes, so 395 Heaven coins for this entire table was too low a price.
— You're a regular customer, and you're the first person to try my new dishes, so I only charged you the cost price. Eating it all after the stats boost was really quite nice, right?
Su Xiao gave Xia 500 coins. "No change," Su Xiao said, and went out with Bubtny.
When Xia was the only one left in the restaurant, she was a little embarrassed. — I was ready to lose money, but in fact I returned the cost price... Sigh, it's going to be awkward for me to train with Bubtney now — " Xia muttered and scratched her head.
She still wanted to get stronger, at least she wanted to be able to protect herself, so she often asked Bubtney to be her training partner.
Bubtney often watched Su Xiao's fights, which was why his understanding of combat was not inferior to that of the powerful. Under Bubtni's guidance, Xia's combat effectiveness had increased significantly, but compared to her cooking abilities, her combat skills weren't worth mentioning.

This skill wasn't weak at all, and the reason why she kept her restaurant in such an unsociable place was because she liked to be quiet and develop new recipes in peace. She wasn't interested in money or fame.

Su Xiao very quickly returned to his exclusive space. He wanted to open treasure chests, lots of treasure chests!
