Full-Time Magister: You're selling soul beasts in Shanghai?

Chapter 3: Leng Qing's Breakthrough Stuns the Cold Hunter King

"By the way, Xu kid, is the meat you use in your shop from demons?"

Cold Hunter King suddenly recalled the changes in his body over the past few months and could feel that his physique had significantly improved.

Over the past few months, he hadn't eaten any rare or exotic delicacies, and could only attribute the problem to the food at this restaurant.

I guess so.

Xu Beichen did not deny that soul beasts were indeed somewhat difficult to explain.

"No wonder, your technique is indeed amazing. I've eaten a lot of monster meat from other shops, but the effects were almost negligible," said Cold Hunter King.

Xu Beichen smiled faintly. Monster meat does contain a lot of energy, but the culinary skills in this world are not high enough to extract it.

It might have some effect on scions of noble families who have been raised from childhood, but for a super-level mage like Cold Hunter King, the effect is almost zero.

"Enough of that. Same old routine, I've been craving this while doing missions these past few days."

Leng Lie Wang casually sat down in a seat, and Leng Qing and Lingling also sat down.

"Hold on."

Xu Beichen quickly entered the kitchen, swiftly prepared a soft-boned rabbit, and then...

Three minutes later, Jiang Shaojun brought the food to the table, and wisps of steam rose up.

"Please enjoy your meal, gentlemen."

"There's nothing special about it," Lingling said with a hint of disdain.

Cold Hunter smiled without saying a word, picked up the sauce from the side, and skillfully and evenly poured it over the sauce.

In just a moment, the hot aroma invaded their brains directly through their nasal cavity. Lingling, who had just been disdainful, was instantly captivated by the fragrance.

The Cold Hunter King took a deep drag, his expression one of pure ecstasy: "This is the taste! All other food tastes like shit!"

Leng Qing and Lingling both glared at their father.

"Lingling, this is too spicy, you should eat less," Cold Hunter King suddenly reminded her.

"no."

Like a kitten guarding its food, Lingling quickly pulled out two big rabbit legs and put them into her bowl.

A few black lines appeared on Cold Hunter's forehead. "It's so big, can you finish eating it?"

While he was still in a daze, Leng Qing had already put the rest into her own bowl, deliberately leaving a spicy rabbit head for her father.

Seeing that only a spicy rabbit head remained on the plate, Cold Hunter's lips twitched. What a good daughter she really is!

What a loving father and filial daughter!

Jiang Shaojun wore a playful expression. No one could resist the boss's delicious noodles!

"Sigh~"

Xu Beichen sighed softly. The hard work he had put in over the past few months was not even as profitable as selling a Howling Moon Wolf.

It seems that his target should still be those summoners.

Just as Xu Beichen was in a daze, Leng Qing, who had just finished eating four spicy rabbit heads, suddenly turned bright red on her cheeks, and her legs kept pressing inward.

"Sister, why is your face so red? Is it too spicy?" Lingling asked hurriedly, looking at Leng Qing across from her.

"I'm fine~"

Leng Qing's eyes began to glaze over, her breathing became noticeably rapid, and she was constantly exhaling hot breaths from her mouth.

"Um?"

The Cold Hunter King also noticed Leng Qing's unusual behavior, and with his keen insight, he quickly realized it.

I was drugged

Cold Hunter's eyes instantly locked onto Xu Beichen, who had just come out. How dare you drug his daughter right in front of him?

Cold Hunter King had always thought highly of Xu Beichen, whose cooking skills and talent were both top-notch. It wouldn't be a bad thing if he really became his son-in-law.

If it were a normal pursuit, he naturally wouldn't object, but what is this?

Xu Beichen was equally bewildered when he saw Leng Qing's appearance. What was going on?

"Young Xu, I can understand that you have feelings for my daughter, but your methods are too underhanded. I guess I misjudged you."

Cold Hunter's eyes gradually turned cold. He suddenly stood up and was about to subdue Xu Beichen when Jiang Shaojun decisively reached out to stop him.

"Cold Hunter King, the boss is definitely not that kind of person," Jiang Shaojun said with a firm look in his eyes.

Although his boss hadn't paid him a single penny in the past few months, and he was even being paid to work, he trusted his boss's character.

Xu Beichen nodded repeatedly. He had already roughly guessed the reason, which was most likely due to the low-probability effect triggered by his god-level cooking skills.

He was really curious about what the special effects would be, but this is it? Are you kidding me?!

Although food-themed anime often feature this effect, this is a magical world, so what's the point!

Seeing the murderous look in Cold Hunter King's eyes, Xu Beichen broke out in a cold sweat. He was just a lowly beginner mage, and the system had really screwed him over!

Just as the atmosphere was tense, Leng Qing reached out and grabbed Leng Lie Wang's arm.

Cold Hunter King glanced back and saw that although Leng Qing's face was still rosy, it was not as flushed as before, and her breathing had also become steady.

Could it be that he misunderstood?

"Do you feel any discomfort?" Cold Hunter asked hurriedly.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

A hint of surprise flashed in Leng Qing's beautiful eyes, her tone filled with disbelief: "I've broken through to the third level in the wind element."

"What?"

Cold Hunter King could hardly believe his ears. After a moment of stunned silence, he quickly used his mental powers to examine the matter.

"They really broke through?!"

Cold Hunter King opened his mouth, as if his worldview had collapsed at that moment.

How could you break through so easily after just one meal?

"A breakthrough?"

Xu Beichen was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief. He had thought that he really had "drugged" her!

"Is the boss some kind of reincarnation of a culinary master?"

Jiang Shaojun was also dumbfounded. He had been eating here every day, and apart from his physique constantly improving, he hadn't seen any breakthrough in his cultivation!

"Young Master Xu, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." Cold Hunter King's face showed a hint of embarrassment.

"I understand," Xu Beichen said.

Given Leng Qing's previous demeanor, anyone would have thought the same thing, and he was no exception.

"How about this, I'll transfer you one million as an apology," said Cold Hunter King.

"No"

Xu Beichen frowned, about to refuse, but was interrupted by Leng Liewang: "Don't make excuses anymore. One million is nothing if you can help Leng Qing break through a small realm."

Hearing this, Xu Beichen had no choice but to accept it. With Leng Lie Wang's strength, one million was nothing to him.

"Young Xu, it's one thing to have a strong physique, but how exactly did you manage to help him break through?" Cold Hunter King asked.

"This might just be a coincidence; it's the first time I've ever seen it too."

Xu Beichen gave a vague answer, but this was the first time the special effect had been triggered.

"Alright, I'll find you for a few drinks when I'm free."

After transferring the one million, Cold Hunter King planned to leave.

Lingling had just finished eating two large rabbit legs and was smacking her lips, her little face showing a reluctant expression, completely different from when she first arrived.

Before leaving, Leng Qing glanced back at Xu Beichen, a strange light flashing in her beautiful eyes.
