Five steamed buns lay quietly in the steamer.
A multicolored light gushed out, shooting up to the sky. It was resplendent and colorful.
In the sky, the pitch-black clouds scattered, and light shone on Bu Fang's body, making Bu Fang's entire body shine with a golden light.
"The steamed buns … are done?"
The audience became quiet, and no one dared to breathe loudly.
Since the result was about to be announced, everyone was a little nervous. Would Bu Fang become the Heaven Chief, or would he be beaten back to his original state, beaten like a dead dog by the Tong family's young master and brought back?
Everyone's eyes widened. Everything was decided by the five steamed buns in the steamer.
However …
The audience sucked in a breath of cold air.
Everyone's eyes froze for a long time before they finally let out a long sigh.
In the next instant, the audience was in an uproar.
"I knew it! Three days ago, he couldn't become the Heaven Chief, but three days later, he became the Heaven Chief. How could there be such an awesome person? "
"The Heaven Chief is so noble. How could a mortal touch him?"
"Trash mortal, you should just wash up and sleep!"
…
The audience couldn't help but laugh. They were so excited that they even started to dance.
There was no immortal energy. The steamed buns in the steamer didn't have any immortal energy.
This meant that Bu Fang had failed. His dish couldn't condense immortal energy, so he couldn't become the Heaven Chief.
Bu Fang couldn't become the Heaven Chief. This meant that this arrogant mortal was going to suffer …
Of course, some people felt that it was a pity.
They thought that they would be able to witness a miracle.
But … Miracle was strangled by the throat, and then completely crushed to pieces.
In the end, the mortal couldn't become the Heaven Chief.
Xuanyuan Xiahui craned her neck, staring at the five steamed buns in the Black Turtle Constellation Wok.
The steamed buns were sparkling and translucent like jade, full of beauty. From time to time, they would emit a glazed luster. The inside of the steamed buns seemed to be wrapped in light.
However … those steamed buns didn't have immortal energy.
"What a pity …"
Xuanyuan Xiahui felt that it was a pity and let out a long sigh.
Xuanyuan Xuan stood beside Xuanyuan Xiahui with a complicated look in his eyes.
As expected … it's still not enough?
He had thought that Bu Fang would succeed, but unfortunately … it seemed that he had failed.
In the end, mortals were just mortals …
Mu Liuer furrowed her brows, and the smile on her face disappeared. She looked at Bu Fang, who was illuminated by the sunlight, and her heart wavered.
Although the bun did not contain any immortal energy, Mu Liuer could not see the slightest trace of worry on Bu Fang's face.
That composure …
It was as if he was mocking everyone's expressions.
Administrator Chen's expression was solemn.
He sat on the panel of judges. He was the only judge for the Heaven Chief assessment.
That was because the rules for becoming the Heaven Chief were very simple. One had to attract Tribulation Lightning, and the dish had to condense Immortal energy.
In fact, the dishes that could help a chef become the Heaven Chief wouldn't taste bad.
Tong Cheng raised his foot and stomped on the ground.
The jade stone that was rolling on the ground was immediately crushed by his foot.
"Trash … Let's see how you're going to fight with me. I want to see who dares to protect you!"
Tong Cheng grinned coldly, his eyes filled with disdain.
He had thought that Bu Fang would become the Heaven Chief and create trouble for him.
It seemed he didn't need to prepare for this. If Bu Fang became the Heaven Chief, it would be troublesome.
However, he seemed to have overestimated that mortal.
He wasn't even the Heaven Chief. If Tong Cheng wanted to kill Bu Fang, it would be as easy as killing an ant.
"Now, what do you have to say?"
Boom!
Tong Cheng stood up from his seat. Instantly, a terrifying aura burst out from his body.
The void above his head seemed to twist.
At this moment, Tong Cheng's True Immortal Realm cultivation base was displayed to the fullest.
Everyone felt a little stifling, and they found it hard to breathe.
His True Immortal Realm cultivation base was enough to suppress everyone.
Tong Cheng's eyes were filled with murderous aura as he gazed at Bu Fang.
His pressure seemed to turn into a small mountain, pressing down on Bu Fang.
He wanted to see that mortal kneel in front of him and beg for mercy.
These days, Tong Cheng had been annoyed by a mortal, which made him very depressed.
Today was the day he could vent his frustrations.
He wanted to let that mortal experience the Tong family's 18 tortures!
Manager Chen furrowed his brows and looked at Tong Cheng. His mouth opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something.
However, after thinking about it, he realized that it wasn't worth it to offend the Tong family's young master for a mortal chef who hadn't even condensed immortal energy.
Thus, he swallowed the words he wanted to say.
He … had given up on Bu Fang.
If he didn't become the Heaven Chief, he wouldn't even be qualified to compete with the aristocratic families.
In the end, this mortal was still too young.
Hahaha!
When he sensed Manager Chen's hesitation, Tong Cheng burst out laughing.
Tong Cheng burst out laughing. He was afraid that the Immortal Kitchen Pavilion would fight with him for a mortal.
Although the Tong family wasn't afraid of the Heaven Chief Hall, Heaven Chief Hall had the backing of the City Lord's mansion. If they started a fight, both sides would be unhappy. It wasn't necessary to fight for a mortal.
Now … it was the best outcome.
"Now … who else can help you?"
Tong Cheng sneered.
He leaped up, standing on the railing of the audience, looking down at Bu Fang.
Bu Fang clasped his hands, his face still calm.
Whitey stood by Bu Fang's side, its mechanical eyes flickering with light.
After devouring the lightning punishment, Xiao Bai's fighting prowess had reached the One-star True Immortal Realm. He wouldn't be weaker than Tong Cheng.
Of course …
That wasn't what Bu Fang was relying on.
"Young Master Tong Cheng, you're too impatient. You can't make a decision yet."
Suddenly, a faint voice arose from the audience.
The audience was bewildered. Tong Cheng slightly furrowed his brows.
In the distance, Mu Liuer grinned.
"Young Pavilion Master Mu, you're not the Heaven Chief, so you don't know the Heaven Chief's rules … If a dish doesn't have immortal energy, it's not the Heaven Chief's dish. Isn't it obvious? Does the Heaven Chief Hall really want to fight with the Tong family to the end? "
Tong Cheng's voice was cold and a little angry.
Did the Heaven Chief Hall really want to become the Tong family's enemy for a mortal?
"No, I'm just saying that it's too early to make a decision … How do you know this dish doesn't have immortal energy?" Mu Liuer asked with a smile.
She glanced at Bu Fang, who seemed to be emitting a golden light under the sunlight. She felt an inexplicable sense of confidence.
"Do you think we're all blind?"
Tong Cheng shook his head, sneering.
"You're all blind …"
All of a sudden, a cold voice arose.
Everybody was dumbstruck.
The audience, Tong Cheng, and even Manager Chen …
They stiffly turned their necks to look at Bu Fang.
Under the warm sunlight, Bu Fang lazily squinted.
He slowly rolled down his sleeves, waving them. Then, his mind flickered.
The five steamed buns, which looked as though they were hugging glass, flew out and landed on the blue-and-white porcelain plate that Bu Fang had prepared.
The plate was round, and the buns were decorated with green spirit ingredients. They looked as though they were shrouded in mist.
"What did you say?"
Tong Cheng coldly looked at Bu Fang. His aura became more terrifying and thick. The entire room seemed to shake.
Bu Fang was expressionless. He glanced at Tong Cheng as though he was looking at an idiot.
"I said you're blind …"
As soon as Bu Fang said that, he clasped his hands, holding the steamed buns as he slowly walked away.
Shortly after, he arrived in front of Manager Chen, who was sitting on the judge's seat.
Manager Chen was bewildered as he looked at the calm young man. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
None of the five steamed buns had immortal energy. Where did this mortal get his courage and confidence from?
Wait a minute!
Manager Chen stared at the steamed buns. Suddenly, his eyes shrank as though he remembered something. He couldn't believe it!
"Could it be …"
In the distance …
Xuanyuan Xiahui seemed to have remembered something that he had missed out on, and his eyes instantly lit up.
"Oh, it's like that! Owner Bu's confidence comes from … Tsk, tsk, tsk! "
Xuanyuan Xuan was bewildered.
What's going on?
What's the reason? Tell me!
Didn't you say that Bu Fang didn't have any hope? Why are you so excited now?
Could immortal energy appear out of thin air?
However, in the next moment … Xuanyuan Xuan was dumbstruck.
Not only Xuanyuan Xuan, but the entire audience also looked at the center of the room, gazing at the young man under the sunlight.
A golden kitchen knife appeared in the young man's hand. He swung it casually.
The kitchen knife was like a shooting star as it slashed down.
One of the steamed buns, which seemed to be wrapped in glass, was cut open.
Swish …
Under everyone's gazes …
Clear spring water seemed to gush out of the steamed bun.
An aroma that seemed to have materialized rose from the steamed bun.
A milky white gas came out of the cut on the steamed bun. It slowly rose, hovering around the steamed bun …
That milky white gas …
It was immortal energy!
The aroma diffused. In just a blink of an eye, it filled the entire room.
It drilled into everyone's nostrils, causing their faces to involuntarily reveal a sunken expression.
This aroma … How could it be so thick?!
Gulp …
Everyone swallowed their saliva. They couldn't believe their eyes as they looked at the swirling immortal energy and the aroma.
How could a steamed bun smell so good?!
The skin on Manager Chen's face trembled …
Indeed, it was like that.
This steamed bun had a hidden meaning.
Manager Chen looked at Bu Fang with a complicated expression. Then, he sat back on his seat.
The steamed bun that Bu Fang had cut open was still flowing with clear spring water. The clear soup was steaming hot, emitting a fragrant aroma. The steamed bun seemed to have a glass-like luster.
"Crystal Glazed Soup Steamed Bun. Please have a taste."
The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife spun in Bu Fang's hand. After twirling the knife, it turned into a golden gas and dispersed.
Soup Steamed Bun?
Manager Chen took a deep breath. What entered his nose was the thick aroma of the Soup Steamed Bun.
This aroma was the aroma of meat, but it also had the fragrance of grains. The meat aroma was condensed, like a hemp rope that was rolled up by different ropes, binding one's mind and making one sink.
The fragrance of the grains was refreshing. Smelling it, one's soul seemed to be cleansed.
When Tong Cheng saw the immortal energy, his pupils shrank.
That mortal … He could cook a dish with immortal energy!
Damn it …
Tong Cheng's heart was filled with resentment. His eyes were bloodshot. His chest heaved up and down. He was so angry that he was about to go crazy!
How could that mortal cook a dish with immortal energy?!
At this moment, everyone's attention wasn't on Tong Cheng. It was on Manager Chen.
Manager Chen picked up a pair of jade chopsticks. He used them to pick up the Soup Steamed Bun, which was still gushing with thick soup. He took a deep breath.
Stroking his beard, he stuck out his mouth and bit the Soup Steamed Bun.
The moment he bit the Soup Steamed Bun …
Manager Chen's eyes widened.
