Valley of Gluttony, Inn
The void trembled, like ripples spreading out.
In the next moment, a figure slowly stepped out of the ripples, and his appearance gradually became clearer.
Yan Cheng frowned, his face cold. He carried the black longbow on his back. Raising his hand, he looked at his torn sleeve. The corners of his mouth rose into a cold smile.
"An ant is just an ant. In front of a giant like the Holy Lands, the Valley of Gluttony can only be trampled. So what if others bully you? The only thing you can do is tear off a piece of my sleeve. "
Yan Cheng stamped his foot on the ground and muttered to himself. Suddenly, his body shook.
The clothes on his body immediately tore apart, revealing his well-proportioned and fair body.
A guard stepped forward and helped Yan Cheng put on some clothes. Then, Yan Cheng sat on his seat, his body slanted, and he raised his hand to support his chin.
"The one who killed my brother is dead. Now, only the Holy Saint's task hasn't been completed. I can imagine that the Netherworld creature that tore the Holy Saint's clone is in that mysterious restaurant …"
Yan Cheng's eyes looked pensive.
"Commander Yan, do you need me to go there to check? I will be very careful … "
A guard looked at Yan Cheng, clasping his fists.
Yan Cheng lifted his eyes slightly and moved his finger to tap on the table. He glanced at the guard and shook his head.
"No need. If you go there, you will just die. It's meaningless. That Netherworld creature could kill the Holy Saint's clone. Even if you want to escape, you can't."
The guard was startled. He didn't say anything else. If Commander Yan said he couldn't escape, then he couldn't.
"Isn't there a Chef's Challenge tomorrow? Is it the Chef's Challenge between the restaurant owner and Liu Jiali, the Jade Scale Knife on the Tablet of Gluttony? "Yan Cheng rubbed his chin.
The guards nodded. The entire city knew about the Chef's Challenge tomorrow. They would know about it.
"Good. Then, we will go there tomorrow to observe," said Yan Cheng.
As his voice faded, the guards quietly retreated.
The room resumed its tranquility. Only the sound of breathing could be heard.
…
The next day, at dawn …
The Glutton God City's tranquil atmosphere was washed away by the warm sunlight.
The entire city seemed to have come back to life. People came and went, and the peddlers started their daily business. There was a huge flow of people entering and exiting the city gate.
There was a crunching sound.
The door of the restaurant opened.
Bu Fang yawned lazily and walked out of the door. The warm sunlight shone on his face, making him feel warm all over.
Twisting his neck, Bu Fang strode out of the restaurant.
You's tall figure also dashed out of the restaurant and stood beside Bu Fang. Her long, straight black hair cascaded down, and her face was expressionless.
In the distance, a few figures slowly approached.
Xiao Ya dragged Hua and rushed over.
Xiao Ya's eyes were swollen from crying, and she looked exhausted. It was obvious that she had not slept all night.
When she saw Bu Fang, she couldn't help but look excited.
"Big brother!"
Xiao Ya dragged Hua and dashed over. Hua still had that cold expression.
However, when they arrived at Bu Fang's restaurant, Hua narrowed his eyes. He wanted to enter the house and sit cross-legged beside a black dog under the Path-Understanding Tree. However, Bu Fang grabbed his head and pulled him back.
"Let's go. Let's go to the Chef's Challenge."
Bu Fang said.
"Can this Chef's Challenge save Grandpa Chu?" Xiao Ya curiously raised her head and asked.
"It can," Bu Fang rubbed the little girl's head, replying calmly and confidently.
You followed behind them, not saying a word.
Then, the group of people walked toward the distance.
Suddenly, a figure wrapped in a black robe appeared on the side of the road. That figure came to Bu Fang's side and lifted his hood, revealing a handsome face. His bangs fell down and streaked across Bu Fang's eyes.
"Bu Fang young man … Where's the Spicy Strip we agreed on? Where's I's Spicy Strip? "Hades Erha's eyes revealed his excitement.
He had finally gotten rid of that clingy little fairy!
"Spicy Strip … I've been busy practicing cooking, so I didn't have time to make Spicy Strips. How about … you wait a little longer?" Bu Fang said.
Hades's nostrils flared, glancing at Bu Fang.
Who are you trying to fool? You're busy … You've been lying in front of the restaurant all day, and you're telling I that you're busy?!
Hades Erha was so angry, but he still maintained a smile.
"Alright, I'll wait. Bu Fang young man is not busy."
Bu Fang's mouth twitched, revealing an expression that made Hades Erha want to beat him up.
The group continued walking, heading to the end of the long street.
Liu Jiali's restaurant was not far, at the end of the long street in the Glutton God City.
Liu Jiali was already standing in front of the restaurant.
His restaurant was called the Jade Scale Restaurant, named after the famous knife in his hand, the Jade Scale Knife.
His restaurant was really big, and it wasn't smaller than the Phoenix Pavilion. No matter what, he was a special grade chef, so he had a good reputation and skills. Of course, his business wouldn't be bad.
Liu Jiali leaned against the door of the Jade Scale Restaurant. He was wearing a clean chef's uniform. His long hair was tied up with a metal hoop. He was holding an old book in his hand, and he was flipping through it.
While reading, he nodded from time to time, as though he was fascinated. He didn't see Bu Fang's group coming.
When he turned the page, he felt some auras in front of him. He lifted his head and saw Bu Fang's group.
"You're here." Liu Jiali's face became serious. He straightened his body, looking at Bu Fang's group.
Bu Fang was here, which meant that the Chef's Challenge … was about to begin.
Around them, besides Bu Fang's group, many diners who had come to watch the Chef's Challenge had also come.
Liu Jiali turned around, bringing Bu Fang's group into the Jade Scale Restaurant. The other guards led the diners to the first floor of the restaurant.
Just like the Phoenix Pavilion, the first floor of the Jade Scale Restaurant also had a projection array, which allowed people to watch the Chef's Challenge clearly.
Today's theme was the Elixir Cuisine.
This made many people excited.
The Elixir Cuisine was an extremely expensive and precious dish. Ordinary chefs couldn't cook it because it was different from ordinary dishes. It required a lot of energy.
There was a legend that the real top-grade Elixir Cuisine could revive the dead.
Of course, it could just be a legend. After so many years in the Valley of Gluttony, there weren't many people who studied the Elixir Cuisine, and there weren't many records about it.
Liu Jiali was still the number one chef in the entire Valley of Gluttony when it came to cooking Elixir Cuisine.
Bu Fang wasn't a stranger to the Elixir Cuisine. In fact, he had relied on the Elixir Cuisine to start his career.
Regarding the Elixir Cuisine, Bu Fang had his own unique views. Of course, with Bu Fang's mental energy, it wasn't difficult to cook the Elixir Cuisine.
They came to the second floor, which was very spacious. Obviously, Liu Jiali had prepared a lot for this Chef's Challenge.
"I didn't think that the last Chef's Challenge would be between you and me," Liu Jiali said, looking at Bu Fang.
"I've been observing and studying you since your first Chef's Challenge. However, you're really magical. It seems that every time, you'll bring out dishes that are beyond people's expectations … So, I'm really looking forward to the Chef's Challenge with you."
Liu Jiali walked to the stove, placing both of his hands on it, smiling at Bu Fang.
At this moment, Bu Fang was observing the entire second floor of the Jade Scale Restaurant, his eyes indifferent.
In the second floor, there was a thick medicinal aroma. Obviously, there were a lot of medicinal ingredients piled up on the second floor.
"The competition of the Elixir Cuisine can't rely on the judges … Because the competition of the Elixir Cuisine doesn't focus on the taste and texture. It focuses on the efficacy … Whether the ingredients can bring out the efficacy is the most important thing," said Liu Jiali.
He raised his hand, patting.
The sound of his hand hitting the ground reverberated on the second floor.
Through the projection formation, everyone held their breaths. Boom!
Boom!
Two steel cages fell from the sky and smashed on the ground of the second floor, causing the entire second floor to tremble.
Liu Jiali clasped his hands, walking slowly to the front of the cages. He raised his hand, patting the steel cage.
Buzz …
As the light flickered, the scene within the cage gradually became clear.
It was actually two injured spirit beasts. They were spirit beasts that looked like they were carrying a small mountain on their backs.
"These are Mountain Carrying Boars, spirit beasts that die easily. Now, they are on the verge of death. Let's compete to see who can save those spirit beasts faster. Who will win … What do you think?"
Liu Jiali looked at Bu Fang, his eyes sparkling.
He was a little excited. Finally, he could have a competition to his heart's content.
He had calmed his heart, studying in seclusion for so many days. Finally, today, he could defeat Bu Fang.
Ending a Chef's Challenge winner … That feeling made people's blood boil. They were so excited.
Bu Fang looked at the two pigs, the corners of his mouth twitching.
His eyes moved, falling on Liu Jiali.
"This is too troublesome. What's the point of saving pigs? Let's save him …"
Bu Fang said.
Bu Fang's words made Liu Jiali freeze on the spot. He didn't think that Bu Fang would reject his suggestion.
"You said … who should we save?" Liu Jiali took a deep breath, asking.
The corners of Bu Fang's mouth rose. He raised his hand, patting Hua's head. Hua's Tri-Flower Snake Eyes turned, looking at Bu Fang. Then, he took a step back, and his figure suddenly changed.
He turned into a big snake.
The big snake opened its mouth, and viscous liquid flowed out. Chu Changsheng's body, which was full of holes, was spat out.
Liu Jiali was instantly dumbfounded, as if he had been struck by lightning.
What … what was going on?
For this Chef's Challenge, Bu Fang beat the Great Elder half to death? That was impossible …
It wasn't just Liu Jiali. Through the projection formation, when everyone saw Chu Changsheng's badly wounded body, they were dumbstruck.
The fellow that was spat out from the snake's mouth … was it really Elder Chu?!
Swoosh!
Everybody was in an uproar. The Great Elder was wounded and dying?! Was this a joke?
Last night, during the battle in the Gluttony Restaurant, everybody thought that the Great Elder had driven the enemies away. Unexpectedly, the Great Elder was almost killed.
Looking at the Great Elder's pitiful appearance, everybody's mouths trembled.
On the first floor, Yan Cheng, who was clasping his hands, grinned. Chu Changsheng wasn't dead yet … He was really lucky.
However, Yan Cheng's eyes were sharp. At first glance, he could see Chu Changsheng's condition.
His vitality was gone, leaving only a wisp of will. As long as that will was broken, Chu Changsheng would die.
In such a situation, let alone the Elixir Cuisine, even the real divine herbs couldn't save him.
"This Chef's Challenge … is interesting."
Yan Cheng sneered.
Liu Jiali sucked in a breath of cold air.
This time, the Elixir Cuisine was used to save the Great Elder?
"Impossible … The Great Elder's vitality is gone. He's a dead man now … How could he be saved?!"
Liu Jiali's face was ashen, and he staggered.
Bu Fang took out a velvet rope from his system dimensional bag and tied his hair. His eyes turned to Liu Jiali. "I said I can save him … so I can save him," said Bu Fang.
Liu Jiali's eyes were like torches.
"Good! If you can save the Great Elder … I, Liu Jiali, admit defeat in this Chef's Challenge! "
