Chapter 626

Gurgle... gurgle... In the backyard of the Nameless Chamber of Commerce, the colossal millennia-old vinegar mother vat boiled like a fired crater. The dark golden vinegar mother essence churned violently, a vinegar aroma so dense it felt tangible, mingled with a hint of domineering dragon might, forming a purple-gold mist visible to the naked eye. It permeated the entire courtyard, even seeping past the courtyard walls to shroud half the street in a soul-stirring sour fragrance and an indescribable pressure. "Sss-ah... so comfortable..." (Vinegar... hot spring... finally home...) Inside the vat, Xiaohong—shrunk to the size of a normal horse—rolled about contentedly, letting the scalding, viscous vinegar mother essence wrap around its entire body.
