1367 Tian Cang, the Waiter (2/2)

Just as Bu Fang took another bite of the spirit fruit, the System's voice suddenly rang out in his head. It told him that if Tian Cang used Nether crystals to buy Longevity Noodles, those crystals would also be included in the revenue, not his personal money.

He immediately rolled his eyes. 'What a stingy System… It doesn't even let me have my own money…'

”No, no, no… If I buy the noodles with Nether crystals, how can I show my sincerity?” Tian Cang rejected Bu Fang's suggestion without even thinking about it.

Longevity Noodles was the food that could keep him alive, and he must earn it with sincerity. His life could not be measured by money. Therefore, he didn't give Er Ha, Ying Long, and the other Prison Overlords a chance to persuade him. He chose to be a waiter in Bu Fang's little restaurant.

Bu Fang did not refuse because it was agreed. He was pleased with the addition of a formidable Tian Cang to help out in the restaurant since Whitey had fallen into a deep sleep after devouring the God's Heart. No one knew how long it would take to wake up, so for the time being, someone like Tian Cang could help manage the order of the restaurant.

Why would Bu Fang turn down such a good helper? So he nodded silently. The main reason, of course, was that if Tian Cang bought the noodles, all the Nether crystals he made would be included in the revenue. In that case, it was better for the previous Nether King to be a waiter. Did Bu Fang look like a man short of a hundred thousand Nether crystals?

Ying Long and the other Prison Overlords tried to persuade Tian Cang, but they were still mercilessly rejected.

Er Ha sat on the ground with a sad face, hugging his father's legs. Even so, he couldn't change Tian Cang's decision. At that moment, he felt as if something was broken inside him, and his spicy strips seemed to be leaving him.

Since they couldn't convince Tian Cang, Ying Long and the others had no choice but to drag Er Ha out of the restaurant. They had to rush back to the Nether King Palace and let him handle many affairs. The battle between Di Ting and Lord Dog had shaken the world, and now the situation in Earth Prison was so unstable that Er Ha needed to be in charge.

The expression on Tian Cang's face did not change as he watched Er Ha being dragged out of the restaurant. Sure enough, this father was relentless when it came to pushing his son into a fire pit.

The restaurant soon quieted down. Bu Fang closed the door and chose not to open for business. That caused a lot of grumbling among the group of diners queuing outside. They waited a long time, thinking the restaurant would open, but it didn't. However, after Bu Fang told them that he would open the door for business the next day after a night's rest, they all left sulkily.

Only Tian Cang, Bu Fang, and Nethery were left in the restaurant.

Nethery held Foxy in her arms and blinked as she looked at Tian Cang and Bu Fang.

The previous Nether King came to Bu Fang and began to talk with him about the terms. They talked for a long time, and when they were done, Nethery had already returned to her room with the little fox.

After that, Tian Cang walked happily out of the restaurant, turned into a beam of light, and flew toward God Vanishing Mountain.

Bu Fang put his hands behind him and sighed softly as Tian Cang vanished into the sky.

”Old people nowadays…”

…

Bu Fang called Nethery down from upstairs and cooked a bowl of Dragon Blood Rice for her. Although the divine power liquid drop had stabilized her condition, he still needed to cook some dishes to suppress the curse's power in her.

Inside the restaurant, Nethery sat at the table and ate happily. Foxy was also very excited because she had something to eat. As for Bu Fang, he sat in a chair, closed his eyes, and took a nap.

After a while, he entered the Heaven and Earth Farmland.

The farmland was full of spiritual energy. Bu Fang strolled through it. The grass was swaying and rustling. Not far away, the leaves of the Nine Revolution Great Path Tea Tree were shining brightly. Beside it, the Senseless Lotus was in full bloom on the Immortal Tree, and its faint scent lingered in the whole farmland, lulling the mind of those who smelled it.

The Immortal Tree, the Senseless Lotus, and the Nine Revolution Great Path Tea Tree... Three spiritual things adorned the farmland, making it look like a fairyland.

Bu Fang sat down under the tea tree, closed his eyes, and began to consolidate his gains from the battle. The light sprinkling from the tea tree calmed his mind. His divine will was surging as if it was slowly growing stronger.

In front of the wooden hut, a chair was rocking, the river was gurgling, and the grass rustled in the wind as spirit beasts moved through it. The farmland, once empty, seemed to have become a real world now, filling Bu Fang's heart with a sense of accomplishment.

Under the tea tree, Bu Fang's body burst into a golden light, which moved slowly as if it were wrapping around him. Then, with him as the center, one golden ripple after another spread around.

Over his head, the divine will Phantom Spirit slowly emerged. Its golden eyes were closed, and its mouth was chanting a divine tune. At this moment, Bu Fang's divine will, which had stopped in the first stage, was about to break through.
