The Strongest God System 3
Chapter 194: Opening a Dining House

Xandan City, Shin Kingdom

Lin Chen's group could enter much easier to Xandan City since it had already obtained an identity, there was no examination that was too long as they had to do while in the previous city, no one had to do it, and when it came here did not carry the name Chenlong Herbal in order not to attract too much attention.

"Find a store that's on the main street, see if anyone's selling the building for us."

Lin Chen was told by Xue Ying that neither Yegui nor the empty house could be bought here, that's why he asked for help to find a building that the owner wanted to sell on the main road.

Xue Ying controlled the horse to continue moving into the middle of Xandan City, then stopped a few miles before reaching the center.

The horse-drawn carriage stopped at a shop on the right of the main street; it was perfect in the morning as it would be illuminated by the sun. But the building looks unkempt, on the concrete wall as high as the waist of adults, the wall is very dull and full of cracks like spider webs and lightning.

Lin Chen got off the carriage and helped his wife, sister and student to get off.

Lin Chen walked towards the entrance which was quite large yet unkempt. "Is there anyone inside?" He knocked on the door.

There was no reply from inside the building even though Lin Chen had already knocked on the door for quite a long time, but he did not leave the building because he saw a board that explained if the building he was visiting really wanted to be sold.

"Sister, the owner is down."

"really?" Lin Chen turned his head back to look at Xue Ying who was eating an instant ramen cup. Then he knocked again on the door one last time and waited until the owner came down.

Kreeks... _. door open sound.

The twin doors in front of him opened one of them and it was only half; it was seen the white-haired old man who was bent down wearing luxurious red clothes, carrying a wooden stick as a walker.

As the door opened wider, a young woman wearing a blue hanfu with a red belt, her hair was sparkling black and her eyes were orange.

"Can anyone help?" ask young lady—ia wants to close the store and bring her Grandpa back upstairs to rest.

Lin Chen turned his face to look at the board that read ⁇ , 'Stores for Sale', then returned to look at the young lady. "I want to buy this building."

"Young man, do you really want to buy it? This place is already very damaged, even if you want to renovate, the funds spent will be more than building it from scratch."

Lin Chen lowered his head looking at the old man whose body was trembling, but still tried to explain with all his might even though his voice was heavy. "It doesn't matter, but if you may know, you're wearing fancy clothes, but why live in a place like this?"

The old man turned his head to look at the building and touched the cracks that were on the wall. "This was the beginning of our family, and now I'm well off. My son asked me to go downtown, but I want to stay here for a while until the building is sold."

Lin Chen put his hand into his clothes and took out a small bottle the size of an index finger; a pouch containing 500 Gold Taels which was the equivalent of 50 Silver Sycees he also took, then gave it to the old man.

"I'll buy it, and that little bottle is a great herbal concoction for your health."

The old man accepted it with trembling hands and gave him the contract he had signed all day long because he had intended to sell it.

"Is it okay if you sell it?" Lin Chen accepted the contract and signed two contracts; each of them accepted the contract so that there would be no misunderstanding later on.

The old man waved his hand and walked past Lin Chen. "No problem, I'm sure of my vision."

Lin Chen nodded his head, then entered the building to look at the inside; many cobwebs were on the pillars as well as the corners of the room, the tables looked weathered eaten by termites.

"Yin'er, please."

The Kuxing Goddess stood in front of Lin Chen and spread out her hands; the transparent white-colored gathered energy that started to move spread out in all directions and hit the entire two-story building.

When all the energy of the Kuxing Goddess had already filled the building, it gathered its energy in the palm and brought it closer together. "Space and Time Techniques, Space Twist."

Slowly, cracks and dust began to disappear with small animals killed in the void of space. Initially this place is not suitable to live in, now it has changed better and looks sturdy like new, although there must still be some improvements in some places.

Lin Chen turned his head back to look at Xue Ying who had just entered after telling him how to use the potion earlier. "Yi'er, please unload the wall in front and replace it with thick glass, then for the kitchen part, please change to modern cookware ..."

"For the front wall, I want the wall to be pushed back, to have a little space in front and put some tables in there." Lin Chen gave a hand gesture as a sign not to use spiritual energy while destroying it.

Xue Ying followed the direction from Lin Chen and started installing a large wooden as a support pillar that started two meters away from the front wall. He made a wall in the newly installed section, and added 21 cm thick glass like a concrete wall.

Xue Ying divided his body to replace the cooking utensils in the kitchen, from the traditional one using firewood to the Magic Core of the Blue Star.

"Sister, just simple cooking, do not overdo it because it can attract the attention of the sects again. If it continues like that, Brother's training could be delayed." Xue Ying grumbled in annoyance as he walked into the kitchen room.

Lin Chen frowned as he walked following Xue Ying. "Am I really overreacting?"

Xue Ying turned his head back with a sharp gaze, then let out a long sigh and did not answer him.

Yan Xue, the Kuxing Goddess and the 4 Sacred Beasts could also only silently not answer; what Lin Chen was doing was indeed very excessive due to changing the flow of spiritual energy in the Lantian Universe. If it was only the Qiuzan Star, it might still be considered ordinary, but this was the Universe!

*30 Minutes Later

"Duck!" Lin Chen bought whole duck meat from the System Shop for 10,000 System Points.

Lin Chen started cleaning the duck with running water and dried it using a clean cloth, then put it in a bowl, then mixed it with an assortment of herbs: cinnamon powder, ginger powder, nutmeg, and so on, white pepper and cloves.

"The pounded jujube and jujube leaves, put them in the duck."

Lin Chen looked very happy; there was no burden at all while cooking; the children who were elsewhere also remained safe, he only needed to open the System Window to see their circumstances.

"Enter the chives into the duck body, mix the soy sauce into the rest of the seasoning, apply evenly, cover and let stand overnight." Lin Chen stored it into the Inventory, then set it so that time could move in a ratio of 1:1,440.

After a few minutes, Lin Chen steamed the duck for an hour. He did it alone without any help, as others were renovating a restaurant that was planned to open tomorrow or the day after.

Lin Chen drained the steamed duck for an hour, along with heating the oven until it was able to boil water for a short period of time.

Then bake for half an hour, then apply with Silver Bee Honey, and re-bake until completely cooked.

"Now, make the sauce, plum jam, vinegar and sugar."

Lin Chen cooked quietly without realizing that his kitchen was now filled with extremely quality and pure spiritual energy, no different from the hundreds of Divine Pills that were broken and allowed his Essence to spread.

As Lin Chen was cooking, the people who were renovating the building started to discuss about what Lin Chen was currently doing was too excessive, because from the start it was intending to live a quiet life, he said, but what is done is inversely proportional.

This aura was extremely powerful and its aroma was also appetizing, even ordinary humans could sense it.

Lin Chen took out a ripe duck; its skin looked like a treasure, it was a sparkling red color and when it was cut, it would give off appetizing water; when it was fed, it was gleaming, there will be a crisp sound that is very pleasant to hear.

"I'll sell it for two Silver Taels."

If True Cultivators knew the price sold, they would buy it in bulk, since the materials used alone cost at least 1000 High quality Spiritual Stones, let alone the ducks bought, as the materials used alone cost at least 1000 High quality Spiritual Stones, let alone the ducks bought, it might be worth 10 Trillion High quality Spiritual Stones.

Lin Chen who had finished cooking, did not directly bring his dishes forward, but instead chose to sit on the bench and fold his hands in front of his chest with his eyes closed.

"After I cooked, I realized one thing. Life, according to ordinary people, is food. Sometimes, they can eat anything as long as they can survive, whether it's grass or even tree bark."

Lin Chen recalled the suffering that Goddess Kuxing had endured while under his watch. She did not feed him well until his digestion was broken, and although she fed him a delicious sumptuous meal, the Kuxing Goddess could not eat him due to trauma.

"Do I have to try all the Professions that Mortal works in?" Lin Chen opened his eyes slowly; every time he finished doing related work, he seemed to get an answer to his own question.

"Yin'er!" Lin Chen slightly shouted to the Kuxing Goddess.

"Yes, Master!" The Kuxing Goddess ran into the kitchen; approaching Lin Chen.

Lin Chen stood up taking the food he had already cooked on the table. "Take this and take it forward." He handed it to Goddess Kuxing.

"Then, I apologize for everything I did in my first life." Lin Chen huddled down to apologize to the Kuxing Goddess.

Dewi Kuxing looked panicked; not knowing what to react to since not expecting to get an apology like this. He turned left towards the glassless window to look at Yan Xue, and when he got a reply marked with a nod of his head, he moved.

Goddess Kuxing placed the tray on the table, then helped Lin Chen to get back on his feet. "Master, please don't be like this. I've used Master."

"really?" Lin Chen was still unsure.

Goddess Kuxing nodded her head, and hugged Lin Chen. "Yes, I've forgiven Master ..."

Lin Chen was speechless with his mouth open, then exhaled a long breath and smiled faintly; there was a sense of relief in his heart as Goddess Kuxing took advantage of him.

The batch of energy that was around started to be absorbed into Lin Chen's body, which made the Kuxing Goddess retreat to take the tray, then leave it alone.

Lin Chen was pensive with a slightly surprised look as the Kuxing Goddess pushed him; this shaken feeling had an effect on the energy that was blown out.

"Master! Forgive Yin'er, Yin'er saw this duck was almost cold, so Yin'er brought it forward."

"Ah ... It seems like I think too much," said Lin Chen scratching the back of his head—ia thought that Goddess Kuxing was just pretending to use her, but it was only because the duck was getting cold.

The pure energy around it re-enters the body and continues to be absorbed until it is clean.

The energy that was within Lin Chen's body had already gathered was overwhelming and extremely pure; perhaps the Realm God would kneel upon seeing how the aura he was emitting right now was.
