The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 440 - 437: Calamity Descends from Heaven

Xin Zhuo and Shi Guiren returned to the Imperial Palace, and Xin Lin, just as usual, arrived at Taoyao Pavilion around dusk.

As soon as she entered the dining area, she saw Master Ji humming a little tune.

"Master Ji, what’s made you so happy?"

With sweet words, Xin Lin approached him.

Having learned how to make the Ultimate Lingxiu Buns, she felt confident again and hoped to further improve her culinary skills.

"It’s all about the trouble with De Yue Building, haha, do you remember Master Chen from Purple Cloud Alchemy Hall? That guy is nothing but a heartless scoundrel. What goes around comes around, and this time, De Yue Building has suffered a substantial loss."

Master Ji shook his mustache, his face brimming with schadenfreude.

How big can Zixiao City be? News of the incidents in Spiritual Food Restaurant spread across the entire place in less than a day.

The Overlord Egg devoured all of De Yue Building’s food supplies. The promised Spiritual Banquet had to be canceled, and as a result, they had to compensate with a hefty sum of money.

"Not only that, but I’ve heard that ’Chen Heixin’s’ Spiritual Delicacy Buns were outdone. Apparently, there’s a new kind of bun that’s even tastier on the market now, and it’s half the price. Too bad, it’s only sold in the morning market, and I haven’t had the chance to try it."

Master Ji sighed.

Although "Chen Heixin" is quite detestable, the Spiritual Delicacy Buns of De Yue Building are, in fact, exceptionally delicious.

This was something even Master Ji had to admit.

Buns are the most ordinary of foods, but making them delicious is not easy, especially since they are not Lingxiu. To make something tastier than De Yue Building’s is even more extraordinary.

Upon hearing this, Xin Lin secretly stuck out her tongue.

If Master Ji knew that the Ultimate Lingxiu Buns he mentioned were actually taught by himself, who knows what he would think.

While Master Ji was chatting with Xin Lin, a commotion arose outside the dining area.

"Sirs, please speak kindly, she’s just a mere general worker at our place and has nothing to do with Taoyao Pavilion."

Master Ji’s voice could be heard.

Both Xin Lin and Master Ji were taken aback for a moment.

They then saw several saber-wielding government officers barge into the room.

As soon as they entered, they loudly inquired,

"Which one of you is Xin Lin?"

Seeing this, Master Ji slightly frowned and stepped forward to answer.

"Sirs, she is Xin Lin!"

In a rush, Master Ji popped out, pointing at Xin Lin.

"Ji Jie! What are you doing?"

Master Ji was quite angry.

"So you are Xin Lin. Master Chen of De Yue Building has accused you of secretly stealing and damaging De Yue Building’s property. Do you confess to these crimes?"

The government officers asked with arrogance.

Theft and destruction of De Yue Building’s property.

Master Ji’s face changed drastically as he looked at Xin Lin.

"Yes, it’s her. Xin Lin, hand over that troublesome egg, and I can still ask the County Magistrate for a lighter sentence."

Master Chen stormed in furiously, accompanied by De Yue Building’s Shopkeeper and the anxious owner of Taoyao Pavilion.

Master Chen’s head was bandaged, and he was limping, looking utterly wretched.

Thanks to the Overlord Egg, not only did De Yue Building lose their esteemed guests from Xuantian Sect, but they also lost a great amount of food and spiritual materials.

Especially those in the storage, which were the accumulation of many years.

The egg appeared and vanished without a trace. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

After the incident, Master Chen remembered the scene when Xin Lin had asked for the egg earlier and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something wasn’t right.

That girl left as soon as she said she would, a stark contrast to her behavior back at Purple Cloud Alchemy Hall.

This was clearly not adding up!

She did it on purpose!

She deliberately let the egg be, to wreak havoc in De Yue Building!
