780 Don’t You Say Another Word (1/2)
The light figure's gaze suddenly shifted to Bu Fang.
Yan Yu was still roaring crazily on the ground. His eyes were filled with insanity, and his expression was a mixture of malevolence and hatred.
He hated Bu Fang so much. It was Bu Fang's fault that the situation had escalated this much. If he had won the Chef's Challenge, he would have been able to leave this place safely. Everything is this guy's fault!
His hatred for Bu Fang was so much that he could not help gnashing his teeth. More importantly, Bu Fang had wrested his Shadow Chopping Knife away from him.
The Shadow Chopping Knife was a famous knife that he had worked painstakingly to acquire, and it was what he had relied on to stay in first place on the Tablet of Gluttony for so long.
But, today, Bu Fang had actually dared to take away his treasured knife!
That was why he was unable to control his rage. Now that the light figure was going to save him, he might as well take back the Shadow Chopping Knife. Moreover, he could kill that little chef while he was at it!
He knew who the light figure was. It was the Holy Saint of the Ancient Jade Holy Land—an existence second only to the Saint Sovereign.
The Holy Saint's cultivation level was definitely beyond everyone's imagination.
Yan Yu believed that no one would dare to disobey the Holy Saint's words. As an elder of the Valley of Gluttony, Chu Changsheng clearly knew just who the Holy Saint was. If he were to defy him, he would be defying the Ancient Jade Holy Land's Saint Sovereign as well.
The Holy Saint was an existence that serves the Saint Sovereign. Whenever the Saint Sovereign was in closed cultivation, all huge matters were handled by the former.
He was just like Amethyst Elder of the Heavenly Spring Holy Land. Although his cultivation was strong, he was not the Holy Saint. Hence, one could only imagine how mightier and nobler the Holy Saint was.
And at that moment, the light figure of the supreme Holy Saint was hovering in the Valley of Gluttony.
That light figure's gaze shifted to Bu Fang.
Chu Changsheng breathing almost come to a stop as he was very uncomfortable at that moment.
Although the being before him was just a light figure, the energy it contained already surpassed his.
”What Yan Yu said... Is it true? If it is, then hand over the famous knife, or else... die!” the light figure said with a voice that resounded throughout the space.
Yan Yu kept roaring crazily with an expression of hate on his face.
When Chu Changsheng heard that, he froze—shocked and horrified beyond compare.
Bu Fang remained calm, however. With the Shadow Chopping Knife that used to belong to Yan Yu in his hands, he tilted his head and glanced at the light figure.
Clank…
The Shadow Chopping Knife was placed into the crystal knife cabinet.
Suddenly, the magic array glowed radiantly, and the crystal cabinet slowly sunk back down into the magic array.
”Return the Shadow Chopping Knife? Sure. Let him challenge me once more with his culinary skills. However, if you intend to snatch it, then returning it will be impossible,” replied Bu Fang with an expressionless face.
When Chu Changsheng heard that, his expression changed. He never thought that Bu Fang would utter those words.
Was he not scared of death?!
After all, he was speaking to the Holy Saint of the Ancient Jade Holy Land. If the Holy Saint wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as killing a fly!
”What a wild youngster. It has been years since anyone spoke to this supreme one in that manner,” the light figure replied, its gaze still fixed on Bu Fang. It then added, ”However, Yan Yu is still someone from my Ancient Jade Holy Land. Moreover, the Shadow Chopping Knife belongs to my Ancient Jade Holy Land, so if this supreme one takes it back forcibly, how will you retaliate?”
In the next instant, the light figure was directly in front of Bu Fang. It was as though it had teleported.
A horrifying pressure surged forth, causing the Noodle King Restaurant to tremble.
The people around were shocked and horrified. None of them ever thought that something like this would happen—Chu Changsheng being intent on killing Yan Yu, and the latter having such a powerful backer.
Although the light figure was incomparably arrogant, the Great Elder did not dare to move a muscle in front of it.
This figure, who made the mighty Great Elder Senior Chu dare not move… What exactly was it?!
Nethery lips parted slightly. They were red and puffy because she had eaten too much Abyssal Chili Sauce.
Xiao Ya and Flowery, who both had an alert expression, sucked in breaths of cold air while looking at the light figure.
Nether King Er Ha was covering half of his face, which had a sad expression. However, he calmly looked at that light figure, gently heaving a sigh.
Whitey's gray eyes began to swirl around, and with a loud clank, the War God Stick turned red. As the stick flew outwards, malevolent-looking horns grew out on its forehead.
A black grain was spiraling within its gray eyes. Suddenly, the metal wings on its back spread wide open.
That light figure was exerting a terrifying amount of pressure on Bu Fang, which caused the Noodle King Restaurant to creak loudly, as though it would be succumbing to the pressure soon.
The pressure was so terrible that many people retreated quickly. Some even had the urge to fall to their knees.
However, Bu Fang remained expressionless. Because of the system, his resistance to pressures like this was very high.
This caused admiration to appear in the eyes of the spectators. This defiant but non-overbearing attitude indeed belonged to Bu Fang.
A moment later, a red stick made a horizontal sweeping motion, heading towards the light figure.
Upon impact, the light figure's head was smashed apart, but the terrifying pressure did not dissipate. The headless torso of the light figure turned blurry, and suddenly, it reappeared in the sky. It radiated an intense amount of light, and all who looked at it could see that it was without a scratch.
”It looks like you do not intend to hand over my Ancient Jade Holy Land's Shadow Chopping Knife. Since this is the case, then you should just die,” the light figure impatiently said in an ice-cold voice.
Whitey's gray eyes flashed, and the War God staff was instantly hurled at the light figure in the sky.
As the stick soared towards its target, it grew bigger. It seemed capable of piercing a hole through the light figure.
However, when the stick reached its target, the light figure casually raised a finger and tapped it. That tap stopped it from moving another inch.
This caused many to suck in breaths of cold air.
As expected… It was only natural that such a being, who was able to exert such a terrifying pressure and render Senior Chu too scared to move, was able to stop Whitey's weapon. That move was capable of killing mighty beings with a finger.
Whitey's eyes flashed as the patterns appeared on its body. It was as though it was trying to increase its power to make the stick overcome that finger.
