"What the hell?"
Bu Fang gave Ni Yan a puzzled glance, then his gaze fell on the wretched figure on the ground. He could not help but be surprised. "Isn't this Ji Chengxue? Why is he in such a miserable state? "
Bu Fang placed the cup on the table and helped Ji Chengxue up. Ouyang Xiaoyi hurriedly ran over to help and carried Ji Chengxue to a chair so he could lie down comfortably.
After doing all this, Bu Fang frowned and expressionlessly looked toward Ni Yan, who was standing at the door, and asked, "What's going on?"
"What else could it be? This guy was surrounded and plotted against. He was lucky to have met me. Otherwise, he would already be dead by now," Ni Yan said as she gave Ji Chengxue a glance and regretfully shook her head.
"King Yu brought his companions from the sect and surrounded Ji Chengxue. His subordinates covered for him and allowed him to escape. In the end, he encountered King Yu and was almost beaten to death. Luckily, that guy with the surname Xiao appeared and saved him. However, this kid was really unlucky and encountered Zhao Musheng …" Ni Yan recounted Ji Chengxue's encounter.
The corner of Bu Fang's mouth twitched as well. This Ji Chengxue was really unlucky. What kind of grudge did he have that caused him to be pursued like this?
"What did he do to incur the wrath of the heavens and the people?" Bu Fang asked again as he glanced at Ji Chengxue, who was bleeding from all seven orifices.
At this moment, Ni Yan also had a strange expression on her face. It was as if she wanted to laugh but was unable to do so. She said, "He didn't do anything to incur the wrath of the heavens and the people. He merely snatched the throne from his two elder brothers. The emperor's posthumous edict has just announced that he will inherit the throne.
"Therefore, he will be the future emperor of the Light Wind Empire … Of course, the prerequisite is that he survives."
Bu Fang suddenly understood. The person who was originally the least favored unexpectedly inherited the throne. This naturally caused his elder brothers to fly into a rage out of humiliation. He did not have the corresponding strength, yet he was sitting on something that he should not have. This was the so-called 'an innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth'...
"Then why did you bring him here? This is a restaurant, not a clinic, "Bu Fang looked at Ni Yan expressionlessly and asked seriously.
Ni Yan's eyes narrowed into a cute crescent. She smiled and said, "With his injuries, he will definitely die if he goes to the clinic. He has been hit by the secret skill of the Mahayana Island. Even a miracle doctor would find it hard to save him."
"Don't count on the elixir cuisine to save him. The two elixir cuisines I can cook won't be able to save his injuries," Bu Fang said.
Ni Yan stared at Bu Fang carefully. She stuck out her red tongue and licked her delicate lips. She smiled and said, "Medicinal cuisine won't do … Don't you have elixirs? A Grade Seven Spirit Herb like the Phoenix Blood Grass is more than enough to treat this kind of injury. "
"Mhm, just one section is enough," Ni Yan said.
The corner of Bu Fang's mouth twitched. This woman was indeed eyeing his Phoenix Blood Grass. A Grade Seven Spirit Herb like the Phoenix Blood Grass possessed the ability to rise from the ashes after being contaminated with the blood of the Ancient Phoenix. It was the best choice to save Ji Chengxue at this moment.
However, Bu Fang was hesitant. He had kept the Phoenix Blood Grass because he wanted to use it to brew the wine that could surpass the "Dragon's Breath". After all, Grade Seven Spirit Herbs were not easy to find.
"Isn't your goal the Phoenix Blood Grass? If I give him the Phoenix Blood Grass, you won't need it anymore? "Bu Fang asked doubtfully.
Ni Yan smiled and pointed at Ji Chengxue. She said, "It's not easy for me to come down the mountain. How could my goal be just for the Phoenix Blood Grass? You can use it to save him. I don't feel bad. There are still many Grade Seven Spirit Herbs in the Celestial Arcanum Sect."
Bu Fang was expressionless. You don't feel bad … but I do.
Bu Fang could not be bothered to say anything more to this woman. His gaze landed on Ji Chengxue, who was on the verge of death. He could not help but let out a sigh as he looked at the usually cultured, elegant, and handsome man who talked cheerfully and wittily. Now, he was on the verge of death and could not help but sigh.
"I'm always too softhearted," Bu Fang sighed.
Then, he told Ouyang Xiaoyi to take care of Ji Chengxue while he walked toward the kitchen. He could not just stand by and watch Ji Chengxue die. Even if he did not care about human life, Ji Chengxue was still his old customer.
He took out the Phoenix Blood Grass from the cabinet. The Phoenix Blood Grass was dark red in color, as if it was carved from red agate. It was exquisite and beautiful. Even after being preserved by the system's cabinet, it was still vivid and full of spirit energy.
As Bu Fang walked out, the fragrance of the Phoenix Blood Grass instantly spread out. The temperature within the store also suddenly rose by a lot.
When Ni Yan saw the Phoenix Blood Grass in Bu Fang's hand, her beautiful eyes immediately lit up. The Phoenix Blood Grass was, after all, a seventh grade spirit herb. Even though she said it was easy, even the Celestial Arcanum Sect did not have much of it in stock.
The tiny Phoenix Blood Grass seemed to have a fire phoenix that was about to soar into the sky. It was overflowing with colors and contained a rich vitality, yet it was also accompanied by a terrifying destructive force.
"Feeding him half a Phoenix Blood Grass is enough. As for whether he lives or dies, that will depend on his own luck," Ni Yan reminded. The Phoenix Blood Grass was, after all, a seventh grade spirit herb and its medicinal effects were extremely astonishing. With Ji Chengxue's current condition, if he were to eat the entire stalk, forget about being reborn, he would probably directly explode from the destructive energy of the Phoenix Blood Grass.
Bu Fang expressionlessly glanced at her and nodded. Green smoke curled up from his hand and the Golden Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife immediately appeared in his hand. He did not hesitate in the slightest as he made a horizontal cut at the Phoenix Blood Grass.
The cut was extremely smooth and the medicinal effects of the Phoenix Blood Grass did not dissipate in the slightest...
Ni Yan's eyes immediately lit up. She stared at the Golden Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife in Bu Fang's hand without blinking, but a storm was raging in her heart.
With a wave of his hand, the Golden Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife once again turned into green smoke and dissipated. Bu Fang walked in front of Ji Chengxue and opened his mouth. He activated the true energy in his hand and a few drops of juice that emitted a strong smell of blood immediately dripped out of the Phoenix Blood Grass.
The juice continued to drip until the other half of the Phoenix Blood Grass in Bu Fang's hand completely melted and turned into blood that dripped into Ji Chengxue's mouth.
"Is this better? Hmm … There's still half left, but it can't be used as the main ingredient. Looks like I'll have to find some spirit herbs to make wine, "Bu Fang muttered as he kept the remaining half of the Phoenix Blood Grass into the system's storage space.
He turned his head to look at Ni Yan, only to find that the latter's gaze was filled with envy as she stared at his wrist.
"You actually have a semi-divine tool …"
"Semi-divine tool?" Bu Fang was a little puzzled.
Ni Yan retracted her gaze and smacked her lips. However, she felt a little strange in her heart. Semi-divine tools were extremely rare in the Hidden Dragon Continent … The Celestial Arcanum Sect collected information from all over the world, yet they had never obtained any information on the semi-divine tool in Bu Fang's hands.
If the kitchen knife did not turn into green smoke and merge into the symbol on Bu Fang's wrist, Ni Yan would not have been able to confirm that the kitchen knife was a semi-divine tool.
However … the kitchen knife was a semi-divine tool. Ni Yan's expression became even more strange. Just which damned master blacksmith had nothing better to do and spent so many precious materials to refine this?
"Ah!!"
Just as Ni Yan and Bu Fang were in a state of contemplation, Ji Chengxue, who had swallowed the other half of the Phoenix Blood Grass, suddenly let out a blood-curdling scream. His eyes instantly turned red, as if there were phoenix flames burning and pulsating beneath his eyes.
The rebirth from the ashes had begun. Whether Ji Chengxue could rise from the ashes and come back to life would depend on his own willpower.
Bu Fang yawned and looked at the sky. He then turned around and chased Ni Yan away. Ouyang Xiaoyi also waved goodbye to Bu Fang before closing the door and ending the business hours.
Ji Chengxue continued to wail and howl in pain in the store. That kind of heart-wrenching pain … Bu Fang did not understand.
Therefore, Bu Fang first went to the kitchen to practice his culinary skills, knife skills, and carving skills. After brewing a large jar of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine, he returned upstairs, washed up, and went to bed.
Maintaining a good night's sleep was especially important. The soundproofing of the room was pretty good, so he could not hear Ji Chengxue's miserable cries. At the very least, Bu Fang soon fell into a deep sleep.
