Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

Lin Bai ate quietly without saying a word.

Each dish he tasted transformed into pure energy, which he quickly absorbed.

The original body, which was somewhat weakened, rapidly became stronger under the nourishment of this energy.

He could feel that the energy transformed from the herbs after they entered his mouth was constantly strengthening his physical body and mental power.

After all the small dishes were served, the atmosphere in the hall reached its peak.

Many people had flushed faces because they had absorbed too much energy.

Some people were even sitting cross-legged on the spot, either practicing their exercises or meditating.

I began to silently process it.

At this moment, the woman in the cheongsam walked forward again.

"Next, we'll have today's main course."

As soon as she finished speaking, two burly men carried a huge white jade platter out of the kitchen.

On the jade plate, there was a pure gold lid.

An indescribable heat permeated the air even through the lid.

"The main course is made from the heart and flesh of a ninth-tier crimson behemoth, the Nine Nether Flame Dragon."

"boom!"

The entire lobby erupted in chaos.

Ninth Rank!

It's still the Crimson Beast!

Everyone present began to breathe rapidly.

Even Ning Wei, whose hand holding the wine glass froze in mid-air, stared intently at the white jade plate.

This is no longer just a meal.

This is a stroke of luck!

The woman in the cheongsam was pleased with everyone's reaction, and she gestured to the two burly men to lift the lid.

A surge of life energy and fiery aura, so intense it was almost tangible, instantly swept through the entire hall.

On the jade plate were pieces of meat that were as translucent as rubies.

Tiny golden flames even flickered on the surface of the meat.

The maids stepped forward and used specially made knives to cut the piece of meat into hundreds of pieces, which were then distributed to each diner.

Lin Bai received a small piece, only the size of his palm.

But he could sense that the energy contained within was far greater than all the food he had eaten before combined.

Without hesitation, he put it directly into his mouth.

A terrifying surge of heat exploded instantly in his chest and abdomen.

Lin Bai grunted, immediately closed his eyes, and focused all his mental energy on guiding and refining this violent energy.

It took him more than ten minutes to slowly open his eyes and exhale a breath of stale air with a faint spark.

In just a moment, he realized that his mental strength had increased by about 30%!

Not only that, that power surged up his spine and into the secret body imprint.

Although it's inconvenient to summon a secret body to check here.

But Lin Bai had a feeling that the Dark Body... seemed to be about to break through to the eighth level?

The power of the Secret Body is even more exaggerated... its power, already at the peak of the eighth rank, seems to have surged again...

Now, ninth rank?

Lin Bai wasn't quite sure...

What a terrifyingly potent medicine!

How terrifying is Bafang Restaurant!

If I could take control of this restaurant and cook exclusively for myself...

The moment this thought crossed Lin Bai's mind, he was drawn to several maids carrying trays who were about to go upstairs.

The trays carried by those maids were more antique and exquisite than those on the first floor.

The dishes on the plate were also shrouded in an energy shield, making it impossible to see exactly what they were.

But Lin Bai could sense that the energy fluctuations emanating from that light shield were far purer and more powerful than the ninth-tier Flame Dragon Heart Flesh he had just tasted.

He paused for a moment.

The main dish on the first floor is made with a ninth-tier crimson behemoth.

So...

What are those people upstairs eating?

legend?

......

Lin Bai didn't think about it in detail; the thought flashed through his mind.

At this moment, all his attention was focused on digesting the enormous energy and sensing the changes in his secret body.

The lobby was quiet; apart from a few people, most diners were closing their eyes and meditating.

Just then, footsteps came from the stairs.

A burly man came down from the second floor.

This man was burly, with bulging muscles all over his body.

He inexplicably wore a loose, oversized robe over it, making him look out of place.

A maid followed behind him, her head bowed and her eyes lowered, keeping pace with him.

When the burly man appeared, Ning Wei's body visibly stiffened.

She quickly lowered her head, covering her face with her cutlery, and at the same time nudged Lin Bai with her toe under the table.

"Don't look at him," she said in a very low voice, with a hint of undisguised nervousness.

"The butcher of the Xuanming Realm is a notorious madman who does things entirely according to his whims. Be careful not to get targeted by him."

After Ning Wei finished speaking, she secretly raised her eyes to see if Lin Bai had listened.

Upon seeing this, she almost crushed the cup in her hand.

Lin Bai completely ignored her reminder.

Instead of bowing his head, he stared straight at the burly man.

More accurately, she was staring at the maid behind the burly man.

The maid was wearing a long blue dress, her head bowed, her face expressionless.

But Lin...recognized her.

Xia Tong.

The name came to mind.

Lin Bai had seen her back in the old world, at the entrance to that secret realm called "Aurora".

It was through her that Lin Bai learned of the existence of the "Thirteenth Hour" for the first time.

Later, Su Wan was ambushed by the "Origin-Destroying Nail" from the cultivation world and almost lost her soul.

Lin Bai had always suspected that Xia Tong, who could freely travel through the thirteenth hour, was involved.

However, he never saw the girl again after that.

But now, she's here.

They were still following behind a cultivator from the "Mysterious Netherworld".

The world of cultivators, the Source-Destroying Nail, the Netherworld, Xia Tong...

An invisible thread connected these seemingly unrelated fragments in Lin Bai's mind.

Lin Bai was lost in thought when the burly man known as "The Butcher" walked to the center of the hall.

He looked around, his gaze sweeping over the faces that held either awe or fear, a playful smile appearing on his face.

"I have come here for the secret realm at the summit of Tongtian Peak."

His voice was like a booming bell, echoing throughout the hall.

"We happen to need a few scouts and men to do odd jobs. Anyone willing to come with me?"

The lobby was completely silent.

Everyone kept their heads down, afraid of being seen by him.

The butcher's infamy resounded throughout the heavens and the myriad realms.

The so-called "doing odd jobs and scouting" is just a nicer way of putting it.

In reality, they just find some unlucky people to use as exploratory supplies.

Go with him, and you'll face almost certain death.

The butcher seemed to have anticipated this reaction, and he wasn't annoyed; his smile simply deepened.

His gaze moved slowly across the lobby, as if he were selecting goods.

Finally, his gaze fell on the only person who dared to look him in the eye.

The butcher's eyes lit up, and he raised his thick arm and pointed into the distance.

"He has guts."

"This table is yours."
