[Xiao Lan] [Vitality: 190] [Strength: 27] [Skill: Seven Flame Secret Method (Incomplete), Red Flame Fist, Purple Flame Sword.]
With 27 points of [Strength], while it was nothing in Kong Wu's eyes, for a young lady of her age, it could be considered extraordinary talent.
Based on the level of cultivators he had encountered during this time, this level should still be within the Qi Refining stage, but very close to Foundation Establishment.
Previously, in Qingshan County, that Blood Spirit who claimed to be Foundation Establishment only had 30 points of [Strength].
Kong Wu merely paid a little attention to this person before turning his head away.
The hot food that had just been served on the table was clearly more appealing.
Kong Wu had ordered far too many dishes; his small table couldn't possibly fit them all. So, after the waiter served eight dishes, he bent over and said, "Esteemed guest, you've ordered so many dishes that we can only prepare and serve them in batches. Please eat what's served first. Once you're done with this table, we'll bring out the rest, alright?"
Although Kong Wu's strong physique indicated he had a large appetite, this waiter clearly didn't believe he could actually finish all those dishes.
Therefore, the first eight dishes served were all rich meats and fish.
They were probably hoping Kong Wu would give up.
Otherwise, if they only focused on cooking for Kong Wu today, would they still need to serve anyone else?
Glancing at the waiter, Kong Wu paid no mind to his petty thoughts and simply said, "Then you'd best be quick about it."
After speaking, he picked up a fish, took a bite, and with half the fish in his mouth, chewed a few times before swallowing it whole, not even spitting out the bones.
The waiter was stunned by this sight. Before he could even react, Kong Wu took another bite with his chopsticks, finishing the remaining half of the fish.
Licking his lips and savoring the lingering aroma, Kong Wu grinned and nodded, "Tastes good!"
It seemed his throat hadn't been pierced by the fish bones, as his voice remained loud and clear.
After speaking, Kong Wu began to tackle the other delicacies on the table.
Watching the dishes on the table rapidly disappear, the waiter shivered and rushed towards the kitchen.
There was no time to dwell on the fishbone issue.
The most important thing now was to get the kitchen to quickly prepare the remaining dishes.
Thinking of Kong Wu's arms, which were thicker than a normal person's thigh, the waiter quickened his pace.
If Kong Wu found out he had been tricked and that the kitchen hadn't actually prepared the other dishes, he'd likely be torn in half.
Thus, under his urging, the second round of dishes was served just before Kong Wu finished the last plate of braised lamb.
Simultaneously, Xiao Lan, who was disguised as a man, also arrived.
Without a word of greeting, she sat herself down opposite Kong Wu.
Kong Wu merely glanced at her before shifting his attention back to the food in front of him.
And so, a strange scene unfolded in the inn.
A handsome young man with a smile in his eyes stared at the robust man opposite him.
The robust man, however, was busy eating with his mouth full.
But as time slowly passed, Xiao Lan, who had been sitting calmly, began to change her expression.
This was already the fifth table.
Yet Kong Wu's eating speed hadn't changed at all.
The exhausted waiter brought the last dish, panting slightly, and said, "Guest, all the dishes are here."
Kong Wu simply nodded and, right in front of the waiter, devoured all the dishes on this table.
Patting his still-flat stomach, Kong Wu took a sip of tea and said, "Bring five more lamb chops."
The waiter hesitated and weakly said, "Guest, you ordered too many dishes before, and the payment you made is still a bit short. If you order more..."
"Just bring the food, I'll pay!"
Before the waiter could finish, Xiao Lan opposite him interrupted.
Seeing this, the waiter turned to look at the nodding innkeeper and immediately turned to urge the chefs who had collapsed on the floor in the kitchen.
At this moment, Xiao Lan's eyes widened in amazement, "In my entire life, this is the first time I've seen someone eat so much."
Kong Wu tilted his head, momentarily unsure if this person was praising him or scolding him.
Perhaps realizing this, Xiao Lan quickly explained, "I mean, if you can eat this much, your physique must be very strong!"
Seeing Xiao Lan looking him up and down as she spoke, almost drooling, Kong Wu's expression changed.
This person...
Could it be???
"Could I ask you to do something for me?"
Facing Xiao Lan's expectant gaze, Kong Wu stroked his chin, carefully observing her fair skin, rosy lips, and the slightly exaggerated pectoral muscles...
"Tell me about it."
Seeing this, Xiao Lan's eyes lit up, but then she seemed to remember something and hesitated, "I can't say it directly right now. If you're full, can we talk in a room?"
Kong Wu, a dignified man of nine feet tall, how could he ignore such an impolite request?
He immediately stood up and said with righteous indignation:
"Let's go! The lamb chops still need some time to roast anyway."
After speaking, he strode away with powerful strides.
Xiao Lan followed closely behind, her face flushed with excitement.
Bang!
The door closed tightly.
The guest room Kong Wu had booked was extremely spacious, and most importantly, the bed was large enough!
After entering the room, Kong Wu sat down on a chair. As he was recalling what he should say in such a situation in his previous life, Xiao Lan had already walked over and excitedly grabbed his hand.
So eager, huh???
Before Kong Wu could react, Xiao Lan spoke, "I assume you know something about the Purple Flame Hall. I am the direct granddaughter of the current Hall Master of the Purple Flame Hall!"
"Our Purple Flame Hall has some tricky matters recently and urgently needs a master with a strong physique like yours!"
"If you help us with this matter, the Purple Flame Hall will surely reward you handsomely!"
After saying this, Xiao Lan stared intently at Kong Wu, only to see the smile on his face gradually disappear and shift to some unknown place.
After a long silence, Kong Wu withdrew his arm.
It was only then that Xiao Lan realized that with her Ninth Layer of Qi Refining strength, she had been easily shaken off by Kong Wu.
Seeing this, her face became even more excited.
If they could invite him, the current predicament of the Purple Flame Hall would be easily resolved.
The next moment, Kong Wu stood up, walked to the door, opened it, and said in a deep voice, "I'm not interested. You can go."
Xiao Lan said with some confusion, "Perhaps you are not familiar with our Purple Flame Hall. The generous reward we mentioned..."
Before she could finish, Kong Wu untied the sack he had brought back to the room and threw it onto the ground.
"Huh?"
Xiao Lan looked at the pile of gold and silver treasures and remained silent for a long time.
"Oh, in that case, please rest well."
Although she didn't know why Kong Wu's expression had suddenly changed, Xiao Lan wisely left.
Just as she stepped out of the inn, a roar echoed through the inn.
"Waiter! Where's my roasted lamb leg!!!!"
