888 Chapter 888: Phoenix Egg-Fried Rice (1/2)
As Bu Fang couldn't rush the work he was doing in the farmland, he left the Three-Eyed Wild Lion there to work alone, and he returned to reality.
Ni Yan was fast asleep. Her life had been saved, but the strongest demon king had smashed the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk. This was a big problem.
Bu Fang needed Ni Yan to wake the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk to help him make wine. If the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk was destroyed, Bu Fang's trip to Earth Prison to pick up the Yellow Springs Grass and Flower of Helplessness would be in vain.
Hence, Bu Fang had to find a way to save Ni Yan.
…
Great Hall, Serpentmen City
The serpentmen within the hall did not dare to breathe out loud.
In fright, they looked at the figures sitting in their Great Hall.
One of them was a man who wore a long, purple robe. His purple hair hung loosely over his shoulder. The aura emanating from him resembled that of a dragon, who was eating the sun and the moon.
This aura made the serpentmen experts present shiver inwardly.
A blonde oceanic species' expert was also present. Although this young man just sat there, the prestige he exuded almost suffocated the serpentmen experts present.
There was also an old man sitting in the hall. This man looked even scarier than the blonde expert. His eyes scanned the ground, and the serpentmen who felt his gaze were petrified.
That old man had to be a peerless existence they could not fathom.
It was at this point that Bu Fang and Nether King Er Ha arrived at the serpentmen's palace.
After taking a seat, Nether King Er Ha observed the people in the hall.
Amethyst Elder's sharp eyes gazed landed on Nether King Er Ha. That fellow had flirted with his daughter!
Saint Daughter Zi Yun didn't care about Amethyst Elder's gaze. However, the moment she saw Nether King Er Ha, she ran towards him happily.
Amethyst Elder's bellows had no effect on her. This made Amethyst Elder so angry that he felt his lungs ache. What a stinky little girl!
When the old man's gaze landed on Bu Fang, his eyes glowed.
That chef had something to do with the chance to transcend, but unfortunately, that young man and the dog were both protecting him. Otherwise, the old man would have already seized it.
When they left the crystal mine, the old man's cultivation base had returned to its peak.
Even back then, his cultivation base had been intimidating, not to mention his present state. Although he had yet to break that shackle, he was still one of the peerless experts in the Hidden Dragon Continent.
He believed he could bargain with Bu Fang now.
Ao Bai was only there because of the little shrimp on Bu Fang's shoulder.
That was their Shrimp Ancestor, and that human had made him a damn pet. Making the Shrimp Ancestor of the oceanic species a pet was the height of humiliation!
As Ao Bai looked at Bu Fang, he could not help shivering on the inside, and an expression of bewilderment appeared on his face.
This was because he could no longer see through that human's cultivation.
How could this be?
Yesterday, that human was just at the Divine Soul Realm with a one-step soul ladder, but now, Ao Bai was unable to see his level.
How had his cultivation base advanced so fast?
Ao Bai's lips quivered.
He recalled the time when this human had punched that giant demon scorpion from the Ruin Prison within the bronze palace. After that, he proceeded to kick seven Heavenly Ethereal Realm experts. That was unarguably awesome.
And he was just a damn Divine Soul Realm expert with a one-step soul ladder! That human had disguised himself as a pig in order to snatch the tiger.
Furthermore, he heard that that human had seized the chance at transcendence in the bronze palace. That human…was simply abnormal!
So many experts were there, yet he, a human, had seized the opportunity.
What should he, Ao Bai, say?
Hence, as he had no way to forcefully retrieve his Shrimp Ancestor from Bu Fang's shoulder, he had come to negotiate.
The jaws of the experts of Serpentmen City dropped as they watched the scene.
As they watched the expressionless human bargain with great experts, the serpentmen felt they had lost their minds.
That human… Wasn't he the guest of their Empress?
So the guest of their Empress was actually this amazing!
Yu Fu also realized that she could not fathom Bu Fang.
Was he still the seventh-grade battle saint Owner Bu she once knew?
After a negotiation session that lasted around two hours, everybody left.
Ao Bai left hesitantly. He couldn't persuade Bu Fang to leave their Shrimp Ancestor.
However, after the negotiation session was done, he sincerely extended an invitation to Bu Fang to visit their Endless Sea with their Shrimp Ancestor.
He had even given Bu Fang a special spirit talisman made from a carved shell. They could use it to communicate.
Bu Fang naturally did not reject the invitation. To him, the Endless Sea was an endless treasure. Since it was the vast sea, it was only natural that the cooking ingredients within it appealed to him a lot.
He was really curious about this sea, not to mention that seafood dishes were also very attractive.
Bu Fang had to return to the Endless Sea anyway, so he didn't reject Ao Bai's offer.
After getting Bu Fang's confirmation, Ao Bai smiled and left with his oceanic species' army. They left Serpentmen City, returning to the Endless Sea.
Although the oceanic species' army did not gain anything in this venture, they were satisfied with obtaining some information on their Shrimp Ancestor.
If their Shrimp Ancestor could come back, their Gold Shrimp Tribe could rise and control the Endless Sea once more.
The old man wanted Bu Fang's opportunity at transcendence, so he had negotiated with Bu Fang for a long time. Of course, Bu Fang did not give him the wisp of immortal energy.
Bu Fang could not give it to him if he wanted to. After all, the wisp of immortal energy had been absorbed by the system.
Thus, Bu Fang heartlessly rejected the old man.
