1429 Im Being Set Up! (2/2)

In the face of the young master's mighty aura, Luo Sanniang felt the pressure. 'He's truly a genius comprehending the supreme Law of the Universe. It's hard to imagine the strength of those princes who are comprehending two supreme Laws… Perhaps at the Demigod Realm, they're already strong enough to crush a mid-grade God like me!'

”My lord, Bu Fang is only an ordinary Demigod. How could he destroy the dark iron cage?” Luo Sanniang said hurriedly.

The young master clasped his hands behind his back and released his divine pressure. ”Luo Sanniang, I respect you as the steward of the Divine Chef Temple. My advice to you is to stay out of this. Whether he is the one who destroyed the cage or not, he must be the last person who came in touch with the python. He cannot leave here!” he said in a cold voice.

Luo Sanniang's face changed when she heard that. ”You cannot keep him here!”

”Oh? Are you denying me? Am I no longer qualified to prevent an ordinary Demigod from leaving my mansion?” The young master's eyes grew colder and colder.

Although Luo Sanniang feared the young master's power, Bu Fang was too important to her. ”My lord, I can't agree with your request. Yes, he's just an ordinary Demigod, but…” She paused, took a deep breath, then went on, ”But he has just broken the first seal of the inheritance for the Divine Chef Temple! He is very important to us!”

Everyone was shocked upon hearing that. This common-looking Demigod was actually the Divine Chef who solved the first seal?! Even the young master had a look of surprise in his eyes. He glanced at Bu Fang, whose face was expressionless, and thought to himself, 'Never judge a book by its cover… In this case, I really can't make him stay.'

The young master knew very well the price the Divine Chef Temple had paid for the inheritance. For the temple's sake, he could not keep Bu Fang, but he was reluctant to let him go just like that.

A moment later, a guard ripped through the void, came to his side, bowed, and said, ”My lord, we have not found any traces of the python within a thousand miles around… We suspect that it's still here!”

The young master nodded. He focused his eyes and rested them on Bu Fang again, while increasing his divine sense to try to make him confess.

But Bu Fang was extremely calm, his face expressionless.

'Is it really not him?' thought the young master. 'An ordinary Demigod is no match for the Seven-colored Sky Devouring Python. He couldn't have stolen it…'

”Hand over all your storage accessories,” he said coldly.

Bu Fang frowned, then reluctantly took out a few rings and threw them on the ground.

The young master's powerful divine sense poured over and crushed the rings in a flash. The contents in them emerged immediately, including food ingredients, some Immortal crystals, Nether crystals, source stones, and source gems. They were all ordinary cultivation resources.

The crowd sneered at the sight of these things. In their eyes, Bu Fang was a poor fellow. The value of his possessions was not enough for them to enjoy a meal in a high-class restaurant, so how could someone like this have stolen the python?

The young master's face softened. He looked at Bu Fang, smiled, and said, ”I'm sorry. I've lost my cool. When this is over, I'll compensate your losses.”

The fact that Bu Fang could help the Divine Chef Temple solve the seal proved that he was very valuable. He was even more precious than Zhao Wuhen. Therefore, the young master thought that he had better not offended this Divine Chef.

He turned his eyes and rested them on Zhao Wuhen, and his face grew indifferent. ”You've ruined my Beast Appreciating Feast, Zhao Wuhen. It seems you've become bolder! Guards, put Zhao Wuhen in custody! Also, continue searching the whole city for my python! Bring it back to me, dead or alive!”

The guards answered. A few of them landed beside Zhao Wuhen and put him in chains, causing his expression to change dramatically.

”I'm innocent, my lord! I was being set up! That guy is the culprit! He has deceived all of you! He's not an ordinary Demigod!” Zhao Wuhen was furious. He could not take the blame. How could he break the array and damage the cage when he did not use much of his power in the attack?

The young master furrowed his brows, but he waved his hand and said, ”Take him away! What a good-for-nothing fellow!”

Zhao Wuhen burst into tears. He was really being f*cking set up!

All of a sudden, an old voice rang out, ”Please wait a moment, my lord! I can prove that Lord Zhao is not lying! This young man is indeed not an ordinary Demigod!”

Down below, Master Cheng slowly walked forward with a triumphant look in his eyes. He snorted and glanced coldly at Bu Fang. Then, with a shake of his hand, a fireball emerged over his palm. There was an image in it, which showed how Bu Fang had beaten him at the distinguished guest tower.

At the sight of the image, Luo Sanniang's face changed, Bu Fang arched his brow, while the young master narrowed his eyes.

For a moment, the atmosphere became very bizarre.
