Jiangnan Base City

[Highland Barley Wine], known as "Qiang" in the Tibetan language, is made from highland barley, a staple crop grown on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It is the favorite liquor of the Tibetan people, indispensable for festivals, weddings, births, and welcoming or seeing off friends and relatives. It doesn't go to your head, doesn't leave you parched, and sobers you up quickly; it is suitable for both men and women.

[Heavenly Gift Effect] Universe Rank: Can heal physical injuries of True Gods (requires Universe Rank water quality to brew, starting from a Time Epoch);

Cosmos Rank: Can heal divine body injuries above Immortality (requires Cosmos Rank water quality to brew, starting from ten thousand years of time);

Hong Rank: Can heal all physical injuries of World Lords and below; Desolate Rank: Can heal physical injuries of Star Rank and below.

This, another gold pull? You could say the luck is good, but I ate braised pork knuckles for a whole day to boost my gene multiplier and didn't see a single thing; you could say it's bad, yet she pulled such an overpowered healing food item again just five pages later.

The corners of Xue Xi's mouth gradually curled up. The Desolate Rank alone can heal all physical injuries below Star Rank, so what on earth is America's Water of Life? And they even dare to restrict its export to Huaxia.

Not selling? Then don't sell it at all!

Xue Xi sat on the fitness equipment in the martial arts training room, using her spiritual energy to pull the menu from the first-floor restaurant and the "Closed" sign from outside to her front.

Keeping the menu suspended, Xue Xi updated it once more. In the large blank space after the Combat Set Meal, Xue Xi directly wrote down the healing effects of the Highland Barley Wine, benchmarking it against the Water of Life. She didn't write down the effects for the Universe, Cosmos, and Hong ranks, instead just using a red marker to write a big "100 Million!"

If they like to hide things, then let them hide. Do they dare to fight a price war at 100 million?

Afterward, she swiped away the "Closed" text and wrote "Developing new dish, on leave," hanging the updated menu and the leave sign on the rolling shutter door. Without disturbing the martial artist squads stationed nearby, Xue Xi quietly left the small town with Little Wolf, opened the military satellite map given by Jia Yi, and rode Little Wolf toward Jiangnan Base City.

Brewing equipment wasn't on her procurement list, so Xue Xi planned to make the trip herself. Besides, now that she had the strength, she felt very confident; she could also take the opportunity to relax and stroll through the human cities of this world.

The young martial artist at the front of the line woke up groggy in the middle of the night to relieve himself. He caught a glimpse of the leave sign and instantly turned to stone, kneeling on the ground in despair as he roared: "No!"

The shout woke up the other martial artists in the small town, and suddenly, the night was filled with wailing. At the same time, some people were shocked to discover the new dishes on the menu. The Highland Barley Wine, benchmarked against the Water of Life, made them gasp in cold air—the world was about to change!

Xue Xi naturally anticipated the frenzy people would feel after discovering the 100-million-credit Highland Barley Wine, especially since the country that stood to lose the most would likely do something irrational. But so what? Who's afraid of whom?

Those below War God rank couldn't beat her, and those above? It's not like I don't have a country behind me. Huaxia has the highest number of Planet Rank councilors on Earth; it's just that they lack a bit in terms of the Speaker, otherwise, they would have been the undisputed leader of Earth long ago.

Pondering these things, Xue Xi and Little Wolf approached the edge of the base city. She had Little Wolf stop, took out her phone to notify Jia Yi, and asked him to have the city defense forces keep an eye out. Just kidding—riding a Lord-level Silver Moon Fierce Wolf into the base city without notice? Even an idiot wouldn't do that.

After receiving orders from their superiors, the city defense troops let the beauty and the beast pass. Upon entering the military base, Xue Xi told Little Wolf to stay put and not wander off, then boarded the military train to the base city alone.

In the main urban area of Jiangnan Base City, Xue Xi saw Jia Yi waiting for her as soon as she stepped off the train. A warm feeling surged in her heart; she was someone who had people waiting to pick her up now.

Jia Yi walked up with a smile and patted Xue Xi's head: "Little Xue Xi, welcome to Jiangnan Base City. Was the trip smooth?"

Xue Xi nodded, feeling a bit shy. Aside from Grandpa Dean and the old man, no one had ever patted her head before: "With Little Wolf around, no monsters dared to attack me along the way."

Jia Yi shook his head and said meaningfully: "For you, monsters are nothing to worry about. What you need to watch out for is people!"

Hearing this, Xue Xi revealed a confident smile: "Then let them come. I'm not a pushover that anyone can squeeze anymore."

Jia Yi used his smart bracelet, which was connected to ancient civilization ruins, to detect Xue Xi's strength and couldn't help but be startled: "My goodness, you little girl are a bit scary. You were just an ordinary person a few days ago, how did you jump to Apprentice Level 9 today? Did you make the highest-grade Crab Roe Soup Dumpling?"

Xue Xi scratched her head, not knowing how to explain. Jia Yi looked at her troubled expression: "If you can't say it, then don't. The old man was just startled. Since that's the case, let's go get your martial artist rank certified first. Your ID and everything else will be easily resolved then; a single martial artist license is enough."
