After wrapping the scarf around himself again, Bu Fang walked out of the Immortal Phoenix Restaurant. As soon as he walked out of the warm building, cold air assaulted his face, causing Bu Fang's entire body to slightly shiver. He involuntarily tightened the overcoat on his body.
However, even though the temperature was very low, Bu Fang's heart was abnormally burning. That was because in his mind, the system announced that he had completed the quest and was about to issue the quest reward.
A ten percent true energy cultivation progress and an advanced cooking method for any of the Immortal Phoenix Restaurant's dishes. These two rewards were extremely generous, so Bu Fang was naturally happy in his heart.
Xiao Xiaolong and the others caught up and walked side by side with Bu Fang. Ouyang Xiaoyi and Xiao Xiaolong were chattering non-stop, constantly praising Bu Fang's miraculousness and awesomeness. With just a taste of a dish, he was able to render the Immortal Phoenix Restaurant's chef speechless.
Xiao Yanyu once again put on her veil, concealing her peerless appearance. She appeared very elegant as she quietly walked along.
The four of them parted ways when they reached the entrance of the alleyway. Xiao Xiaolong and the others returned to their residences, while Bu Fang stepped into the alleyway and returned to his store.
At the entrance of the store, Blacky was sleeping on its stomach. Even though Bu Fang had returned, he was still sleeping soundly.
"The quest reward has been issued. You have obtained ten percent true energy cultivation progress. Beginning to randomly draw a dish that has been evaluated." The system's serious and solemn voice rang out in Bu Fang's mind.
Bu Fang was slightly startled. He narrowed his eyes and calmed down his mind. He was suddenly curious as to which dish he would draw.
Of course, the dish that he least hoped to draw was the Sweet 'n' Sour Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs because it was already in his store's menu.
In his mind, the names of the dishes rapidly flashed past and continuously changed. This was the system's random draw...
Finally, the changing speed of the dishes slowed down and then stopped. Finally, they were clearly reflected in Bu Fang's mind.
"The dish drawn is Pan-Fried Flower Crab. After advancement, it is Pan-Fried Tyrant Flower Crab."
It was actually this dish. Bu Fang couldn't help but think of those rosy and fragrant flower crabs that were fried in oil. His mouth couldn't help but salivate. Compared to the sweet and sour Sweet 'n' Sour Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs, the fried flower crabs were already considered pretty good.
Because there was a sign on the door that said the store was closed for the day, many regular customers came in high spirits and left in disappointment. For example, Fatty Jin and the others. After waiting for a long time and realizing that the store was really not open, they left resentfully.
The other customers were in the same situation.
When Bu Fang returned to the store, he did not intend to open for business. It was already getting late, so he tidied up a little and stepped into the kitchen, preparing to cook the newly learned Pan-Fried Tyrant Flower Crab.
…
Phoenix Goddess Brothel.
Qian Bao sat upright on the chair, holding his chin with one hand and frowning as if he was thinking about something.
"So Young Master Bu is the owner of this black-hearted store? He actually came to the Immortal Phoenix Restaurant and criticized all of our dishes. Who does he think he is? He doesn't even put our Immortal Phoenix Restaurant in his eyes! "Qian Bao clenched his fists and anger surged between his brows.
Suddenly, he let go of his hand and sighed, "But no matter what … This Owner Bu's level is really high. He can analyze any dish with just one bite. It's simply terrifying!"
He originally wanted to send his chef to challenge Bu Fang's store. However, it seemed like he was lucky that he did not go. Otherwise, he would have lost a lot of face. This Bu Fang was obviously not on the same level as his Immortal Phoenix Restaurant's chef.
However, Qian Bao was very unwilling to do nothing because swallowing insults and humiliation was not his style.
"Wait a minute!" Qian Bao seemed to have thought of something and his eyes immediately lit up.
"I can let the chef compete with him in knife skills. Without enough time to settle, knife skills cannot reach their peak. Even though they can't compare to Owner Bu in terms of cooking skills, they can use knife skills that require time to settle to defeat him!"
Qian Bao excitedly patted the table, and the corners of his mouth curled up. Finally, he laughed heartily. Very quickly, he ordered his men to gather all the chefs together. He wanted to select the chef with the best knife skills among them.
Qian Bao had already witnessed Bu Fang's understanding and cooking skills, so he could only start with knife skills.
Just as Qian Bao was starting to select the chef with the best knife skills, a Blood Phoenix Chicken had already been quietly transported into the crown prince's palace.
Inside the enormous crown prince's palace, the crown prince, Ji Chengan, was standing with his hands behind his back as he curiously looked at the iron cage in front of him. Inside the cage was a chicken whose body was overflowing with color like fresh blood.
"Is this a fifth grade spirit beast, the Blood Phoenix Chicken? It indeed has a unique appearance. "The corners of Ji Chengan's mouth curled up as he nodded.
Xushi respectfully stood nearby and said, "The Blood Phoenix Chicken is a fifth grade spirit beast and its speed is extremely fast. Even though its combat strength is very weak among the fifth grade spirit beasts, it is not inferior to a fourth grade Battle-Spirit. It took quite some effort to capture it."
"You've worked hard, Xushi," the crown prince turned around and said with a smile as he looked at Xushi.
Xushi once again bowed and did not say anything.
"The Blood Phoenix Chicken and the Sage Herb have all been prepared. The precious medicinal ingredients are almost all gathered as well. Now, all we need to do is wait for Owner Bu to cook this Elixir Cuisine. If this Elixir Cuisine can make father's body better, then my throne … will be secured." The crown prince stood with his hands behind his back as he gazed at the Main Hall in the distance with a burning gaze.
For the sake of this throne, he had sacrificed too much. Every step he took was like treading on thin ice because he was afraid that if he took a wrong step, that beloved younger brother of his would be able to use it against him and consign him to eternal damnation.
"Xushi, get ready. I will head to Owner Bu's store tomorrow. I must cook this Elixir Cuisine," the crown prince solemnly said. "Before that, information regarding this Elixir Cuisine must be kept a secret. King Yu's people must not find out."
"Yes, Your Highness!" Xushi respectfully replied.
King Yu's manor.
Within a secret chamber, King Yu, Ji Chengyu, opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of turbid air. The true energy within his body was boiling like boiling water. After a long while, it calmed down and retracted back into King Yu's body.
"Sixth grade Battle-Emperor is indeed difficult to break through. I've been stuck at this bottleneck for more than a year." King Yu let out a long sigh and felt somewhat helpless. However, cultivation could not be rushed and he did not have the slightest idea.
After pushing open the door to the cultivation chamber, a figure shrouded in a black robe was standing at the entrance. A hoarse voice came from the figure's mouth, "Your Highness seems to be troubled by the path of cultivation? Actually, if Your Highness were to cultivate our Soul Sect's cultivation method, breaking through to sixth grade Battle-Emperor wouldn't be a problem. "
King Yu gave him a glance and sneered, "Then turn into a monster that is neither human nor ghost like you? I am someone who is going to become the emperor. How can I become as ugly as you? "
King Yu's words were somewhat harsh and unkind. However, this was also his usual way of speaking. The head elder of the Soul Sect, Hun Qianyun, did not get angry after being reprimanded. Instead, he eerily chuckled.
Suddenly, a figure walked in from outside the door and handed a secret letter to Ji Chengyu.
Ji Chengyu nodded and directly opened the letter to read without any hesitation. As he read, his expression became somewhat serious.
"This elder brother of mine has really gone through a lot of trouble for the sake of this position. He even used this kind of method. Everyone is aware of father's condition and it's impossible for him to reverse the situation. Yet, he actually placed his hopes on the Elixir Cuisine of a small store? What a joke. "
With a surge of true energy in King Yu's hand, the letter was immediately incinerated and eventually turned into ashes that drifted away.
His eyes were extremely cold as he said, "Hun Qianyun, it's time for you guys to show your worth. If that elder brother of mine wants to prolong father's life … Then I won't allow it. Tonight, bring some people with you to Bu Fang's Little Store and kill the owner. Remember, assassinate him without a sound. After all, that store is rumored to be a little unusual."
Hun Qianyun laughed in his hoarse voice, "When it comes to assassination … If our Soul Sect claims to be second, no one in this world would dare to claim to be first. King Yu, just wait for my good news."
