After Xiao Ze and Ye Lingling's efforts,
they finally finished wrapping two or three dozen buns.
They placed them into the steamer and lit the fire.
A few minutes later,
white mist, like clouds, billowed out from the gaps in the steamer, bringing with it a moist heat that wafted over them.
A faint fragrance, subtly sweet, drifted past everyone's noses, making them involuntarily take a deep breath.
"It actually has some sweetness?" Dugu Yan was a little surprised.
"That's right, this is the taste of Crystal Diamond Wheat."
"Crystal Diamond Wheat?" Ye Lingling looked at Xiao Ze.
"You'll find out soon," Xiao Ze said with a smile, the two women's curiosity already piqued.
Soon, very soon, he would obtain the Immortal Herb.
With the Immortal Herb, Xiao Ze felt that all his Elves could be upgraded to at least Epic level.
Epic level would be a huge improvement.
Gradually, the steam grew thicker, and the aroma deepened in layers.
Sweetness, the savory taste of meat filling, and the pungent fragrance of green onions and ginger mingled and swirled in the heat.
And the taste of the Blazing Flame Pepper slowly emerged.
"I can't take it anymore, this smell is too good," Dugu Yan quickly closed her mouth, almost drooling.
Ye Lingling nodded, holding her breath.
"Of course, not many of the ingredients in these buns are simple," Ning Rongrong said with a smile.
She had eaten many good things in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but compared to Xiao Ze's buns, they were nothing.
It was simply too fragrant.
She didn't want to return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School at all.
Counting the time, Xiao Ze went to the steamer.
Even Xiao Ze couldn't resist it now.
The closer he got to the steamer, the stronger the aroma became.
Xiao Ze's saliva involuntarily surged in his mouth.
He had to swallow constantly to suppress the flow of saliva.
When the lid was finally lifted, all the aromas exploded.
Xiao Ze felt as if his entire being was playing in a World of fragrance.
Fragrant!
Too fragrant!
Even Ning Rongrong and the others' eyes became dazed; such a fragrance made them feel a little lightheaded.
After a long while, Xiao Ze finally reacted.
"Oh my! This is terrifying. If I pull out a bun during a fight, wouldn't it affect the enemy?
This isn't just a bun; it's practically a weapon of war wrapped in dough."
The buns were plump and white, slightly translucent, allowing one to see the meat soaked in gravy inside.
"Come, eat the buns."
Xiao Ze placed the buns on the table.
The four couldn't resist, enduring the scorching hot surface to pick them up directly.
Xiao Ze also couldn't hold back.
The moment he bit into it, the steaming, savory flavor mixed with a slightly spicy warmth, burning from the tip of his tongue all the way into his stomach, even his exhaled breath carried a delicious aroma.
The delicious gravy and meat were perfectly intertwined, even giving the sensation of eating soup dumplings.
"Mmm..."
Dugu Yan took her first bite, and the gravy burst in her mouth, the intense spiciness rushing straight to her head.
Her eyes widened, her cheeks instantly flushed, cold sweat beaded on her forehead, but her mouth simply couldn't stop.
"So... refreshing!!" She gasped, her lips a vibrant red.
Beside her, when Ye Lingling took a small bite of the dough, the Crystal Diamond Wheat aroma, mixed with a faint sweetness of life energy, surged into her heart.
She suddenly froze, her azure eyes shimmering with moisture.
Xiao Ze was stunned; why was she crying?
Ye Lingling clearly felt a warm current spread from her stomach to all her limbs and bones.
And this life energy was quite similar to her Nine Heart Begonia's life energy; it was not weak.
Ye Lingling held the bun in both hands, as if holding a sacred object, and took her second bite with reverence.
Her toes beneath her skirt unconsciously wiggled, her cheeks slightly flushed, looking very cute.
"Hot, hot, hot—!"
Ning Rongrong exhaled as she bit into it, juice splattering on her cheeks, not even bothering to wipe it off.
Xiao Ze smiled helplessly and reached out to wipe her clean.
"Hehe," Ning Rongrong grinned foolishly at him, "This is truly delicious, even better than any dragon liver or phoenix marrow at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
Her cheeks were puffed out like a little hamster.
"If you like it, eat more. There are so many."
Zhu Zhuqing quietly took a bite, then her pupils constricted.
The uncontrollable spirit power within her body caused her Spirit phantom to appear, her fur standing on end.
Even her cat ears and tail appeared.
Xiao Ze watched this scene in shock.
Good heavens, this is outrageous; eating a bun actually caused her Spirit possession to manifest.
Truly exaggerated.
Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face flushed, she clutched the bun tightly, her eating posture still elegant, but her rapidly wagging tail completely betrayed her.
Watching everyone eat, Xiao Ze chuckled.
Indeed, good cooking combined with such amazing ingredients was simply a royal flush.
Several minutes later.
The inside of the steamer on the table was empty.
"Burp—"
Dugu Yan slumped onto the table as if her bones had been removed, her face flushed red from the spiciness.
Ye Lingling was currently clutching her slightly distended lower abdomen, her brows lightly furrowed.
She had never eaten so many buns before.
"I can't take it anymore... my stomach is going to explode..." Ning Rongrong lay sprawled on the chair, completely without grace. Her once slender waist was visibly bulging.
Her eyes were somewhat unfocused as she stared at the ceiling.
"You're talking? Who told you to eat so much? You ate the most."
"Don't even say it, the effect of your bun this time seems better than just eating the wheat. I can feel a clear improvement in my spirit power."
Hearing this, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling immediately sat up straight, their eyes burning as they looked at Xiao Ze.
She had also felt it, but she had been too engrossed in eating to pay attention.
"Is it possible that the wheat I gave you is far inferior in quality to this Crystal Diamond Wheat?" Xiao Ze said.
"Huh? You're holding out on us?" Ning Rongrong puffed out her cheeks.
"What are you talking about? My wheat is very scarce. I can only produce a lot when my spirit power is higher. And the pigs I raised before can also increase spirit power."
The other sheep and cows also had good effects.
Cows enhance physique.
Sheep restore spirit power.
Of course, lamb wool and cow's milk also had good uses.
The cat-eared girl, Zhu Zhuqing, slowly sat up from her previously slumped posture.
"What on earth are you talking about?" Dugu Yan was a little confused.
"Don't you understand? Most of the ingredients in the bun you ate were produced by Xiao Ze himself."
"Spirit?" Ye Lingling suddenly thought of Xiao Ze's unique Spirit.
"That's right."
"But isn't your Spirit a summoning-type Spirit?" Dugu Yan found it too astonishing.
Not only was it a summoning-type Spirit, but it could also farm and raise livestock.
"What's so strange about that? My Spirit is called Black Soil; isn't it normal for it to farm and raise livestock?" Xiao Ze said with a smile.
"That's outrageous. Aren't you afraid I'll tell my grandfather to arrest you?" Dugu Yan gave a wry smile.
"Arrest me to farm for you, then."
"Otherwise? You must have other special crops. These are very rare things, perhaps even better than spiritual grasses and elixirs."
