1025 Lets Battle, Fight Against Five (2/2)

”Old Bu, Xixi did her best. Is there any reward for Xixi? I want a Spicy Strip!” Xixi said.

In the distance, Mu Liuer was walking over to them. Seeing Xixi talking happily with Bu Fang, she couldn't help the brilliant smile that spread across her face.

Bu Fang did not refuse Xixi's request. In a flash, a Spicy Strip appeared in his hand, and he promptly gave it to the little girl.

As soon as Xixi received the Spicy Strip, she started eating it. Probably because of her sensitive immortal tongue, Xixi felt that it had a thousand flavors, which she liked very much.

”Xixi, do you want to come to Teacher Bu's restaurant to take a look?” Bu Fang said, patting Xixi's head.

”Old Bu's restaurant? Can Xixi go?” Xixi raised her head as she ate the Spicy Strip.

Mu Liuer was stunned. She seemed to have guessed who Bu Fang had chosen to be his apprentice.

”Owner Bu, could it be that you chose…” Mu Liuer said doubtfully, looking at Bu Fang with an incredulous expression. ”Xixi is too young…”

”But she has good innate skills,” Bu Fang said sincerely.

Mu Liuer didn't say anything more. After all, her father had agreed to Bu Fang's request, which was his condition to participate in the Immortal Chef Tournament.

Previously, the Mu family had let down Bu Fang, and Mu Liuer did not want that to happen again. Hence, she had no objections.

But she had some doubts. Xixi was, after all, still a little girl.

When everyone was done with their dish, Bu Fang continued his teaching.

After a while, the class had ended, and everyone started leaving.

As Mu Liuer helped Xixi wear her small backpack, Bu Fang walked over and patted the latter's head with a smile. ”Let's go. Teacher Bu will take you to his restaurant.”

Xixi's eyes lit up, her face beaming.

”Teacher Bu, can we go too?”

In the distance, Mu Shou and Mu You were blinking their eyes, their faces filled with anticipation.

Bu Fang glanced at the two of them. ”Alright, you two can come.”

Mu You and Mu Shou looked at each other and grinned, seeing the excitement in each other's eyes.

The two boys then followed, one on the left and one on the right of Xixi. All three brats stepped forward together.

With Mu Liuer leading the group, they went out of the Mu family residence, stepping into the main street of the inner circle.

Suddenly…

Mu Liuer frowned, feeling that something was not right.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Bu Fang also paused in his steps, the sleeves of his Vermillion Robe swaying slightly.

”Who's there?” Bu Fang indifferently said.

The originally noisy street suddenly became silent at this moment, and the pedestrians were nowhere in sight.

Without a doubt, Bu Fang and the others fell into a magic array.

In the distance, several shadows appeared.

Xixi and Mu Shou had never seen this type of confrontation. Their bodies trembled, feeling that these people were demons.

Mu Liuer stepped closer to the children and shielded them, frowning.

Bu Fang's eyes indifferently looked in the distance.

A group of people came out from there, slowly approaching them.

One of them seemed familiar. He was the first guy who had been stripped off and thrown away by Whitey last night, Tong Shui.

”Owner Bu? Hey… I finally met you.” Tong Shui narrowed his eyes as he sneered.

Behind him were Immortal Chefs wearing elegant chef robes. The auras of these chefs were formidable, and every one of them was much more powerful than the Immortal Chefs Bu Fang had ever met.

”These are the second layer Immortal Chefs… Last night, your Earth Immortal Puppet stripped off Xiao Buqun's clothes, electrocuted him, and threw him away. He still couldn't get up from his bed. Of course, they wanted to take revenge for their comrade,” Tong Shui said.

”Take revenge?” Bu Fang asked without expression.

The Immortal Chefs behind Tong Shui started to talk.

”You're the person who's called the strongest young Immortal Chef by the City Lord? If Xiao Buqun cannot defeat you, we will…”

”We don't hit and kill people, so don't worry. We won't do anything to you. We just want to discuss and compare cooking skills with you.”

”If you refuse, you must take responsibility and suffer the consequences. We've arranged a magic array here, so your Earth Immortal Puppet cannot sense anything and rescue you.”

As the second layer Immortal Chefs spoke, they sneered, their faces filled with disdain.

”How dare you! All of you are guests in our first layer, which is under the jurisdiction of City Lord Mu Yang! Is this how you treat our hospitality?” Mu Liuer glared at them, furious.

Those people are in their first layer! How dare they throw their weight around in front of the City Lord's residence!

Tong Shui laughed. ”City Lord Mu Yang? Not for—”

Immediately, Tong Shui stopped speaking, as though he had said too much. He was about to say ”not for long.”

Mu Liuer's eyes shrank. What did he mean?!

”The discussion these days are so boring. The so-called Immortal Chefs of the first layer are simply trash. We hope… that you won't disappoint us.” A young man coldly said, narrowing his eyes at Bu Fang.

Bu Fang met that cold gaze with his own. ”So… you arranged this magic array and spent all this effort just to compare your cooking skills with mine?”

”Yeah. We want to… crush you.”

”You don't want to? If you don't, why did you agree to join the competition? You know, what happened to that fool Xiao Buqun might happen to you… Anyway, it's his fate,” A female said with a smile.

Bu Fang understood. He expressionlessly stared at them, then heaved a sigh.

Turning around, he looked at the children, who were wrapped in Mu Liuer's arms.

”Mu Shou, Mu You… Teacher Bu will teach you the last lesson… Watch carefully,” Bu Fang said.

Then, he raised his head and looked at the second layer Immortal Chefs.

”I know a better way to compare cooking skills. Have you heard of Chef's Challenge?”

Everyone was stunned. Chef's Challenge?

Bu Fang raised the corner of his mouth.

”A Chef's Challenge is a cooking competition where the loser must hand over their kitchen knife to the winner. Since you want to compare skills and you find the discussions boring, we should do a Chef's Challenge…

”So… All of you against me. Let's do a five-on-one…”
