Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Bu Fang lifted his head and raised his chin, which made him look arrogant as he watched Chu Changsheng. His voice was sonorous and powerful, loud and clear enough to make Chu Changsheng’s eyes shrink.
Far from them, Luo Danqing also heard Bu Fang. He gave a hurried cough, gawking and dropping his jaw.
He was scared, indeed. What did Bu Fang just say? He wanted to challenge the top ten chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony single-handedly? It’s a fool’s dream! If Bu Fang could defeat one of them, it would be his luck already. Did he even know what it means to defeat all ten?
Bu Fang wanted to single-handedly deal with the entire chefs who got the old inheritance of the Valley of Gluttony—the chefs’ Holy Grounds!
Savage! Arrogant!
Although Luo Danqing had just eaten Bu Fang’s grilled Taotie’s hoof and broken through, he still thought that Bu Fang had no hope at all. The top ten chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony were all monstrous ones. Perhaps Bu Fang could deal with some of them, but facing the top three would be very difficult!
The top three of the Tablet of Gluttony were the real monstrous talents!
Chef Wenren Shang, the awesome chef, was ranked in the top five, and the top three chefs were all the special grade chefs. If one were to consider this fact, what chance could Bu Fang have?
That’s why Luo Danqing said that Bu Fang was savage and arrogant.
Chu Changsheng’s complexion didn’t change much. He didn’t expect Bu Fang to propose a method in which he didn’t have an escape route.
Chef’s Challenge… What did it mean? The loser would be deprived of all rights to cook. To a chef, it was just simply too cruel.
However, Bu Fang’s words and att.i.tude had enraged Chu Changsheng. He felt Bu Fang disdained their Valley of Gluttony!
“Why do we need the Chef’s Challenge? You don’t need to use your future of cooking attainment to battle. Our relations.h.i.+p isn’t that stiff. You’re a chef. If you’re not allowed to cook anymore since you’re defeated, it’ll be a big regret…” said Chu Changsheng.
Bu Fang gently patted Xiao Ya’s head. A glint flashed in his eyes as he casually said, “You don’t need to worry about it. We will change the rules of the Chef’s Challenge. Even if they fail, we won’t deprive their right to cook. Anyway, I will take their kitchen knives. If they want to take it back, they can challenge me again.”
Chu Changsheng was stunned. He was baffled as he wondered why Bu Fang looked so natural when he spoke. Change the rules? It’s the Valley of Gluttony’s rules. How could they change that?
“If I say that we can change it, we can change it. You don’t need to mind that much. Just answer me, do you agree or not?” Bu Fang said, his face emotionless.
His resolute words made Chu Changsheng take a deep breath of cold air. Bu Fang’s confident face had deeply stimulated him.
“Of course we can… Good… Okay, I’m going back to the Valley of Gluttony and wait for you there. If you don’t arrive after three days, don’t blame me for forcefully taking the little girl,” answered Chu Changsheng as he clasped his hands to Bu Fang.
“Up to you,” replied Bu Fang indifferently.
Chu Changsheng’s gaze drilled into Bu Fang. He then looked at Xiao Ya and the snoring Lord Dog on the ground. The corners of his mouth twitched, his white beard s.h.i.+vering. He turned around, attempting to tear the void to leave.
However, as he released his mental energy, he found the void so tough he couldn’t tear it.
Chu Changsheng was dumbstruck, his face bewildered. How could it be? He got the Almighty Realm! Why couldn’t he tear the s.p.a.ce to make a shortcut home?
“Ah… I forgot to tell you. The restaurant has a protection formation, so the void here is very tough. If you want to leave, please go to the front gate,” Bu Fang said, as though he had just remembered it.
Chu Changsheng twitched his mouth. He flapped his sleeves, feeling light and airy, and glided out of the restaurant.
The night had fallen outside. One more time, the restaurant was shrouded in a layer of cold mist.
Getting out of the restaurant, Chu Changsheng felt his sight widened a lot at this moment. Looking to the distance far away, it seemed that energy was moving inside his eyes.
Boom! Boom!
The void cracked a fissure. Chu Changsheng was satisfied. It was the right way to open the crack. Then, he calmly stepped into the twisted s.p.a.ce crack.
Shortly, the crack closed. Chu Changsheng disappeared into that fissure, leaving only a light sweeping breeze.
…
Cloud Mist Restaurant
Bu Fang rubbed the little girl’s head as he looked at the disappearing crack. His face was emotionless, but in his eyes, a faint flame was burning.
“Nothing can obstruct…”
Luo Danqing carefully observed Bu Fang as he stood up. His body still had many scabs, but because of the Taotie’s hoof, his wounds had recovered.
He wanted to remind Bu Fang what he would be up against, so he said, “Owner Bu… You… Do you really want to single-handedly fight against the top ten chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony?”
Bu Fang’s face didn’t change. He just gave Luo Danqing a faint glance and said, “If you’re done eating, you can leave now.”
Luo Danqing was astounded. He didn’t expect Bu Fang to dismiss a guest like this. “I…”
“I don’t need you to remind me. My decision won’t change. After three days, there will be a Chef’s Challenge in the Valley of Gluttony. If you’re interested in it, you can come to the Valley of Gluttony and cheer me on,” Bu Fang said, then turned around, walking toward the kitchen.
Luo Danqing’s jaw dropped. As he gawked at Bu Fang, he wondered where he had gotten his confidence from. What gave him the courage to decide that?
Nangong Wuqe shook his head while walking contentedly. “I think Old Bu had vented our frustration for us. That old man was too arrogant. He showed off his arrogance while taking advantages. He wanted to take the little bud Xiao Ya away. If I could cook, I would do the same thing to shame him!” Nangong Wuqe patted his mouth after saying this.
Luo Danqing did not say anything. He just shook his head and left the restaurant with Nangong Wuqe.
Yang Meiji also wanted to leave with Sorceress An Sheng. They were about to leave the restaurant when Bu Fang paused in his tracks and turned around to face both of them.
“You two, come here. Time to practice your cooking skills. We’re going to have a three-day special training.”
Yang Meiji and An Sheng froze, their jaws dropping the moment they heard Bu Fang’s words. They felt they were innocent and suffered from injustice.
Wasn’t he the one who wanted to challenge the Valley of Gluttony? Why were they even involved with it? Why did they have to undergo special training?
Yang Meiji and An Sheng exchanged looks. They could feel the reluctance in each other’s eyes.
And so, tonight, the light stayed on in the Cloud Mist Restaurant.
…
The Valley of Gluttony’s Glutton G.o.d’s Banquet had just ended.
People were scattered or sat quietly in front of the tall Tablet of Gluttony, which had just been updated, in the s.p.a.cious square.
There were many chefs whose ranks had changed. However, the top ten stayed the same. Nothing changed much.
Even though there were more dark horses, and someone who made a late debut, it was really tough to compete with the monstrous chefs from the top ten of the Tablet of Gluttony.
Even the biggest dark horse of this time, Jun Qingxiao, was defeated as he had challenged one of the top ten chefs.
Indeed, the gap between their competences was really vast.
Buzz…
The void twisted.
Chu Changsheng slowly emerged as he stepped out of the void. He appeared by the calm spot of the Sunset Lake.
At this moment, the Sunset Lake was a mess. Rubble was everywhere, and the small road collapsed. The entire scene looked battered and worn out.
On the Sunset Lake, the giant Ancestral Alligator jutted half of its head out of the water surface. The big eyes blinked as it looked somewhat satisfied.
As soon as Chu Changsheng appeared, his eyes fell on the Sunset Lake. Looking at the pitiful scene before him, he couldn’t help but sigh.
Indeed, the White Taotie had broken the seal and run to the Cloud Mist Restaurant to wreak havoc. However, in the end, it had submitted its life, becoming food in someone’s dish. It was a little pathetic anyway.
Chu Changsheng’s stern eyes swept around.
The Ancestral Alligator seemed to feel Chu Changsheng’s eyes. It roared, raising high waves on the Sunset Lake. It jumped from the lake and opened its mouth to show its ferociousness.
However, Chu Changsheng just gave it a cold glance and emitted his immense aura. A moment later, the enraged Ancestral Alligator stopped roaring. The giant body slid back into the water, diving deeper. It didn’t even dare to fart.
“You filthy animal…” Chu Changsheng mumbled indifferently. After that, he dashed as if he could shrink the distance into an inch, heading toward the Gluttonous Immortal City.
At this moment, the Sixth Elder was lying leisurely on a chair. His mustache’s curved ends rose as he enjoyed the breeze. The Glutton G.o.d’s Banquet he chaired had ended. It was really hard to have time to rest, so he took the chance to relax now.
All of a sudden, he caught a glimpse of someone das.h.i.+ng through the void. His eyes squinted as he thought that one would come to him in a blink.
“Looks familiar… Er? Great Elder!” The Sixth Elder was so surprised that he jolted up from his seat.
Chu Changsheng appeared like a wind in front of the Sixth Elder. The aura he had released to intimidate the Ancestral Alligator hadn’t been retrieved, so the Sixth Elder felt pressure on his chest.
“Great Elder… You!” The Sixth Elder paled. He was skeptical yet surprised. This aura was really frightening. The void around Chu Changsheng seemed to shatter soon…
“You’ve broken through? Are you an Almighty now?” screamed the Sixth Elder excitedly. His eyes widened at such a revelation.
It had been so many years, except for the Valley Master, that the Valley of Gluttony had finally had another Almighty expert! He didn’t expect that Chu Changsheng had broken through after leaving the Valley of Gluttony for a while!
It was an unexpected joy. Having Chu Changsheng break through, the Valley of Gluttony would be secured. The experts from the other Holy Grounds wouldn’t dare to swagger in the Valley of Gluttony anymore!
However, the Sixth Elder’s joy didn’t last that long. He finally noticed that Chu Changsheng didn’t look happy.
Even though Chu Changsheng had reached the Almighty Realm, he still felt the danger.
Chu Changsheng understood clearly that against the Holy Grounds, they were still weak. Once the Divine Spirit Realm experts of the Holy Grounds attacked them, just a normal Divine Spirit Realm expert who was not at the sect-founder level would be enough to destroy the Valley of Gluttony.
When Chu Changsheng landed, he gave the Sixth Elder a faint regard, and the pressure made the latter’s mustache rise.
“The Glutton G.o.d’s Banquet ended? And the champions.h.i.+p also ended?” asked Chu Changsheng.
“Yes, the champions.h.i.+p for the Tablet of Gluttony also ended. The top ten ranks didn’t change, but we got many good seeds this time…”
Talking about this, the Sixth Elder became excited. He wanted to say something more, but Chu Changsheng put up his hand to stop him.
“No need to talk about useless information. Summon the top ten of the Tablet of Gluttony at once! I want to give them special training!”
“Huh?” The Sixth Elder looked baffled. What happened?
Chu Changsheng’s eyes were radiant. “After three days, they will have a Chef’s Challenge.”
“Chef’s Challenge?” The Sixth Elder was bewildered.
“Yes, Chef’s Challenge. A savage little fellow wants to carry out a Chef’s Challenge with the top ten chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony, that’s why I have to train those kids well. Maybe they can teach that boy some manners!”
