1108 A Cow for the Farmland (1/2)
”Don't you want to kill him?!”
Liu Mobai sat on his chair, his long, black robe hanging. He rested his chin on his hand, revealing his shiny, black fingernails.
Yes, that man was Liu Mobai, the one that had fled from the Immortal Tree space.
During that time, everybody focused on Mo Xiu, the High Grade Qilin Chef of the Dark Nether Cooking Realm.
After his defeat and watching Mo Xiu get burned to death by Lord Dog, Liu Mobai left quietly.
After that, all of his misdeeds had spread throughout the Immortal Cooking Realm. Now, he was a wanted man. Many Immortal Chefs hated him to their bones, and they had all been searching for him.
After all, within the Immortal Tree space, he had had Chef's Challenges against the top ten Immortal Chefs, which resulted in their Heart of Cooking Path being taken away.
Having lost their Heart of Cooking Path, of course these Immortal Chefs had a huge grudge against him. They hated the fact that they couldn't tear him apart.
Despite all that, Liu Mobai was pretty calm…
He could endure the torment, which wasn't designed for humans. After getting the inheritance of the Nine Revolution Clan's Nether Chef, how could he bat an eye on this wanted thing?
Tong Wudi eventually calmed down. After all, he was the head of a powerful family.
Would Liu Mobai be able to kill Bu Fang as he said he would?
What made him so sure about that?
”Bu Fang won first place in the Immortal Chef Tournament. Do you think you can kill him? There are a lot of people who want to do that already. What are you then?” Tong Wudi coldly asked.
Although he didn't believe in it, it was true. It was really difficult to kill Bu Fang.
Whether it was Lord Dog or that restaurant, they were all mysterious... that's why Tong Wudi wasn't sure at all.
”Bu Fang is really dangerous. I think you understand that better than me…” Liu Mobai said naturally.
He had been defeated by Bu Fang within the Immortal Tree space, which was a big loss and pain to him.
He had almost been beaten off to his original form.
He was lucky as he was the successor of the Nine Revolution Nether Chef. If not, he would have been unable to escape.
”Anyway, besides trusting me, you have no other option,” said Liu Mobai. ”You destroyed the Mu family. However, the remaining members of that family have come to the second layer, and they are now gathering people to attack you. Your Tong family will be doomed soon. Also, let me tell you this… Bu Fang's new apprentice… is a survivor of the Mus.”
Tong Wudi's pupils dilated, and his face stiffened.
Right! Liu Mobai's words were correct!
Tong Wudi did not have a way out of this dilemma.
Bu Fang's apprentice was Mu Xixi, the genius of the Mu family.
The future of this talented monster, who was being nurtured by Bu Fang, could not be predicted. But he knew that the moment Mu Xixi grew up, the Tong family would be over.
It wasn't that Tong Wudi looked down on his family. His Tong family didn't have any genius like Mu Xixi, or a teacher like Bu Fang.
Furthermore, the moment Gongshu Baiguang got the Immortal City in his hand, the Tongs would be ostracized and boycotted.
As long as the people of the Mu family intended to come with more people, the day of his Tong family's demise would not be too far off.
The moment this understanding dawned on Tong Wudi, his eyes turned bloodshot. He stumbled backward and fell onto his chair.
If he was still the City Lord, things would not have taken this turn. If someone had come to attack his Tong family, they would have been able to defend themselves properly.
However, he was no longer the City Lord. This wasn't different from taking his trump card away.
Like meat on the chopping board, he was exposed to his enemy's sharp knife.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
With an indifferent smile, Liu Mobai tapped the table with his palm. ”Don't worry. Like I said, as long as you do as you're told, I'm sure your Tong family will be safe. Also, we will be able to kill Bu Fang to vent your resentment.”
Tong Wudi's eyes suddenly shrank. His gaze was locked on Liu Mobai as he said, ”I know who you are! You're the person City Lord Meng Qi ordered everyone to capture!”
”Well... you got me.” Liu Mobai sneered, looking at Liu Mobai. ”So what?”
Then, he stood up, brushing his long robe. His hair fluttered as a scarlet gem appeared in his hand.
He flicked it with his fingers, and the red gem soared into Tong Wudi's hand.
”My plan is in this blood gem. Take a look and work according to the plan. If you don't make a mistake, killing Bu Fang will not be a problem. Once that is done, becoming the City Lord of the first layer will not be a difficult thing.”
Tong Wudi's eyes narrowed, but he immediately gripped the red gem.
Gritting his teeth, he squeezed the stone broken.
Right after that, a great wisp of thought flooded his head.
...
Bu Fang did not bat an eye at the congratulations he got from Tong Wudi and Gongshu Baiguang.
To him, Tong Wudi's words were merely a joke. That man had caused him trouble many times, and now, he wanted to congratulate him? Did Tong Wudi think he would act as if nothing had happened?
Bu Fang wasn't a fool.
Although Tong Wudi had been beaten up each time, that was not important.
With his hands clasped, Bu Fang walked to the kitchen door.
Nethery was peeling the last Blood Lobster, and in just a few moments, she hurriedly shoved it into her mouth.
Her lips were glazed with oil, making them somewhat beautiful.
On the other side, Lord Dog had just finished his Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs and was licking the plate.
True Dragon meat…
This True Dragon meat was not the meat of some high-level dragon. It belonged to the lowest level Green Dragon, the most lowly dragon among the dragons.
Although it was a True Dragon, it was much weaker than a half-dragon breed.
Having received this kind of True Dragon meat, Bu Fang felt he had been cheated.
After Lord Dog was done with his meal, he mumbled something before lying down. Immediately, his loud snores could be heard inside the restaurant.
Flowery sat cross-legged beside Lord Dog. She was also snoring.
It seemed Flowery had been influenced by Lord Dog, seeing as she was also snoring while cultivating. This was her copying the latter's technique.
When Nethery was done eating and was wiping the oil off her mouth, Bu Fang raised his hand.
A formation appeared on it. He raised Nethery's bangs before his warm hand covered her forehead.
Swoosh...
Nethery gently looked at Bu Fang.
A wisp of energy rippled.
Right after that, in Bu Fang's eyes, Nethery's body began to emit green light.
The snakes of the curse wound around Nethery, sleeping.
Bu Fang scrutinized the snakes, sensing the power of the curse and the evil aura they exuded.
At this moment, he couldn't help but furrow his brows.
The snakes were like a time bomb tied on Nethery, threatening her and the people close to her.
Bu Fang didn't know at what point in time his dishes would be able to fully suppress the curse.
He had to find a way to deal with these snakes, and now was a good time to think about it.
Bu Fang raised his hand, and the glow on Nethery's body began to vanish. Then, he leaned on the table, falling into deep thought.
The night grew darker.
The customers that had eaten their fill had begun to disperse.
Nethery returned to her room to sleep, and Xixi followed her. Currently, little girl Xixi and Nethery had a really good relationship.
