Chapter 278: Chapter 275 is too expensive.

The burly man turned around, raised his chopsticks, and was about to pick up some food when he suddenly froze on the spot.

"What the hell!"

"Where’s the food? Where’s the food?"

Looking at the licked-clean plate in front of him, the burly man was devastated.

"You bunch of bastards, that’s really inconsiderate..."

"Boss! Boss!"

Yan Rufeng clasped his hands together and said, "What can I do for you, customer?"

"Bring me another table of dishes like the previous ones!"

Yan Rufeng smiled slightly.

"Customer, are you sure?"

"Hmph!"

The burly man’s expression changed.

"Boss Yan, do you run a restaurant or not?"

Yan Rufeng smiled and said, "Of course!"

"Then go serve me the dishes right now!"

The burly man swaggered over to an empty table and sat down arrogantly.

Yan Rufeng respectfully said, "Customer, are you sure you don’t want to ask about the price of the dishes before you order?"

"Then tell me, how many spirit stones did that table of dishes cost?"

Yan Rufeng smiled and said, "Five hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones!"

"What, are you kidding?"

"Five hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones!"

Exclamations erupted from the crowd.

"Wow!"

"A meal costing five hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones is a lifetime boast for me."

"Damn!"

"A meal costing five hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, if true, would be the most expensive meal I’ve ever had."

"Tell me about it, this is insane..."

The burly man jumped up and roared.

"For a table of ordinary food, you dare to charge five hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones? Say it again, if you dare!"

Yan Rufeng calmly said, "Customer, if you can afford the spirit stones, I’ll serve the dishes right away. If you can’t, please don’t disturb our business."

"Hehe!"

The burly man sneered, "Boss Yan, I’ve got plenty of spirit stones, but your dishes are too expensive!"

Yan Rufeng casually said, "Yingxian Tower’s dishes are expensive for a reason."

"Oh!"

The burly man said disdainfully, "Then please explain why they’re so expensive."

The burly man then glared and said, "If I’m not satisfied with your explanation, your restaurant won’t continue operating in Azure Dragon City!"

In the hall, the people who had just finished their meal were also curious about why the dishes were so expensive, so they sat down and watched Yan Rufeng.

Yan Rufeng smiled slightly and said slowly, "Just now, a lady said eating this dish felt like falling in love for the first time. Do you know why?"

"Why?" the burly man said disdainfully.

Yan Rufeng calmly said, "Because she was eating Memory Soul Grass!"

"What?"

"Memory Soul Grass?"

"Oh my God!"

Someone exclaimed.

"Boss Yan, you used Memory Soul Grass in your dishes? Don’t you know what Memory Soul Grass does?"

Yan Rufeng smiled slightly and said, "Of course, I know Memory Soul Grass is the main ingredient for refining Hallucination Pills. But I believe Memory Soul Grass is better used in cooking."

From the crowd, someone weakly asked, "What’s a Hallucination Pill?"

"Hehe!"

An older man laughed and said, "Kid, a Hallucination Pill is refined using Memory Soul Grass, Midi Grass, and Fire Stone. When activated with spiritual energy, it creates a small illusion realm, causing unexpected effects that can make opponents question their reality."

"Oh my God, that’s incredible. Then Memory Soul Grass must be very expensive!"

The older man stroked his beard and said, "Memory Soul Grass is currently priced at around ten thousand top-grade spirit stones per piece at Cangmang Trading House. But Boss Yan using Memory Soul Grass in dishes is really extravagant."

The burly man said disdainfully, "Even if you use Memory Soul Grass, what about the other dishes?"

Yan Rufeng calmly said, "The eighteen dishes you just had, nine of them were vegetarian dishes made from Spirit Grass over five hundred years old. These dishes contain immense spiritual energy, which can boost cultivation, strengthen the body, and nourish the divine soul. You should know that these dishes contained the powder of Five-star Fu Shen."

"Holy shit!"

Just as Yan Rufeng finished speaking, someone shouted.

"Five-star Fu Shen can enhance the divine soul when consumed directly. Cangmang Trading House sells it for fifty thousand top-grade spirit stones per plant. I never expected Boss Yan to use it in cooking..."

"Hehe!"

The burly man sneered, "You say you used it, but is there any proof?"

Yan Rufeng did not reply. Instead, a beam of light flashed.

A Five-star Fu Shen, glowing white, appeared in front of everyone.

Yan Rufeng smiled, "Folks, when preparing those dishes, I used the root of this Five-star Fu Shen, dried and ground into powder."

Everyone looked and indeed saw that the Five-star Fu Shen in front of them had no root.

Someone sighed long and hard.

"Heavens, who knew Boss Yan of Yingxian Tower put so much thought into making these dishes..."

"Hey."

The burly man laughed.

"Even so, these dishes aren’t worth five hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones."

Yan Rufeng shook his head.

At that moment, an older man chastised the burly man, "Kid, you’ve eaten their food and now you have so many complaints? Can’t you taste that the value of these dishes far exceeds what Boss Yan stated?"

The burly man said disdainfully, "I didn’t get to eat much, so how would I know? I was about to grab some meat, but that guy took the whole plate."

The burly man angrily glared at the person who snatched the meat.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted, "Boss Yan, what meat was in those nine meat dishes? When I ate them, they were incredibly delicious, and I felt a surge of spiritual energy go straight to my dantian, loosening a bottleneck that had been there for years."

Yan Rufeng smiled, "Those nine dishes were made from the meat of nine Level 6 Demon Beasts."

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Everyone stood up.

Someone gasped, "Boss Yan, did you really slaughter nine Level 6 Demon Beasts at once for cooking?"

Yan Rufeng nodded.

"Oh!"

"Amazing! Astounding!"

"Nowadays, it’s such a waste for Level 6 Demon Beasts to end up as food?"

"Huff!"

"I’ve always wanted to try meat from a Level 5 or higher Demon Beast. Never thought Boss Yan would fulfill that wish..."

"Haha!"

The burly man laughed, "Boss Yan says he used Level 6 Demon Beast meat, and you believe him? You all know that Level 6 Demon Beasts can crush transcendance tribulation stage cultivators. Even if he used Level 1 Demon Beast meat, you’d never know."

An older man stepped out and said, "Kid, low-level Demon Beast meat could never be so tasty. Don’t be a sore loser."

Yan Rufeng waved his hand, and nine slaughtered Demon Beasts floated before everyone.

"Folks, these nine dishes were made from the meat of these nine Level 6 Demon Beasts."

Everyone used their divine sense to investigate.

"Holy shit!"

A burly man gasped, "These nine Level 6 Demon Beasts still have their demon cores intact. Boss Yan wasn’t lying to us..."

"Haha..."

In the hall, someone burst into laughter.

"I’ve broken through, I’ve broken through, my cultivation finally broke through to the Divine Separation Stage!"

Scornful looks were cast his way.
