Beside every Soul Beast Forest, countless small villages had gradually developed because of the Soul Masters passing through.
Yangjiao Village might have been called a village, but because it stood right beside the Soul Beast Forest and earned money from passing Soul Masters, after years of development, it was no smaller in scale than an ordinary town.
Whether it was upscale taverns, slightly less refined red-light districts, or brothels, they were all places where crowds gathered in Yangjiao Village.
There were also many shops selling weapons, armor, antidotes, recovery potions, and all kinds of miscellaneous goods.
On one side of the village was a place similar to a meat market. Though there were not many vendors, they were all two- or three-ring Soul Masters, and what they sold was prepared, nonpoisonous Soul Beast meat.
Beside each slab of Soul Beast meat, there were usually Soul Beast heads of various shapes, indicating that the meat had been taken from that particular Soul Beast.
Where there was a meat market, there were naturally restaurants that specialized in making delicacies from Soul Beast ingredients.
If ordinary people regularly ate Soul Beast meat, their physical fitness would improve considerably. These restaurants excelled at using various Soul Beast ingredients to create delicious dishes that were pleasing to the eye, nose, and palate.
However, due to the rarity of Soul Beast meat and the demanding cooking methods required, this kind of food was generally extremely expensive and not something ordinary Commoners could afford.
Therefore, these dishes were usually prepared by the restaurants first, then sold in limited quantities for a limited time before being plated.
Because supplies were limited, the atmosphere in the restaurants would become lively whenever the time came.
