1460 The Silver Armor Guards Show Up (1/2)

He was very good at wok tossing now. In fact, he could even do it perfectly with his eyes closed. With every toss, the ingredients in the wok leaped and rolled in the air, glistening beautifully with steam churning around them.

Soon, he scooped out the ingredients and put them in a blue-and-white porcelain plate. The dish immediately emanated strange power. In the divine dynasty, ordinary dishes could no longer attract lightning punishment. It didn't surprise him. The capital was a great world after all, and its Will of the Great Path was much stronger than that of a small world.

To attract lightning punishment, the quality of the dish must be of the highest standard, and Bu Fang thought that perhaps only the dish of a Heaven Divine Chef could achieve that. Summer told him that the Divine Dynasty had two Heaven Divine Chefs. One of them worked in the imperial kitchen, who was the Divine Emperor's personal chef with noble status.

”The other one is no longer here,” she had said. Judging from the resentful look on her face when she said that, this other one was most likely Mu Hongzi, who had gone to the Netherworld to be a local overlord. That fellow was the previous host, and based on his strength, he was most likely that second Heaven Divine Chef.

If Mu Hongzi was indeed a Heaven Divine Chef, and since he said that he had failed to break through to the God of Cooking's Realm, it meant that the God of Cooking mentioned by the System should be stronger than a Heaven Divine Chef. Bu Fang was very curious about what realm it really was.

He put the first dish to the side. After cleaning the wok, he added oil into it and sent the Divine flame under it with a flick of his fingers. The oil began to boil, rolling and emitting high heat. While the oil was heating, Bu Fang began to prepare the other ingredients.

He cut the ingredients with the kitchen knife. His motions were precise, and his pace was steady. Sometimes, cooking was a baptism for the spirit, and Bu Fang enjoyed that. Afterward, he took out a flat spatula, smeared it with oil, then poured the batter on it. He then placed the cut ingredients and oysters on it before adding another layer of batter on top of them.

When he was done, he lowered the spatula into the oil. A sizzling noise rang out instantly while the oil spitted and steam began to rise from the ingredients. Bu Fang shook his hand, and the oyster pancake left the spatula to float in the oil, turning and rolling slowly.

Looking at the oyster pancakes bobbing in the oil, Bu Fang was suddenly lost in thought. He recalled another dish, which was similar to the oyster pancake but a very different dish. He considered cooking it after this.

He scooped out all the pancakes and drained them of oil, then went on to cook other dishes. A variety of delicacies—including Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup, Boiled Fish, and Marble Wok Fish—were slowly but meticulously cooked by him. There was also the Dried Pot Cabbage, which destroyed the Mo's residence. It was ordered by Luo Sanniang, who proved to be a woman who loved challenging things.

After all the dishes ordered by the girls outside were ready, Bu Fang carried them and walked toward the dining area. The curtain was lifted, the bell tinkled, and everyone in the restaurant turned their eyes over. He and Whitey walked out of the kitchen with dishes in hand.

The girls, who were chattering, were attracted as the aroma of the dishes in the air was too delicious. They were also surprised when they saw the colorful dishes in Bu Fang's hands. In addition to the delicacies, those cold drinks and desserts were what attracted them the most.

Even Luo Sanniang, who was staring at Nethery, was attracted. It was the first time she had ever seen such dishes.

”This is your Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup, Marble Wok Fish, and Boiled Fish…”

”This is your Matcha ice cream and cream cheesecake…”

”This is your spicy crayfish. Don't eat too many as you will suffer from excessive internal heat.”

Bu Fang handed the dishes out one by one. Luo Sanniang had ordered Dried Pot Cabbage and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Soup. She looked at Bu Fang, then removed the soup's lid. Golden light spread from it instantly, while a rich fragrance attracted her. She swallowed, and her appetite was aroused. After taking a deep breath, she began to enjoy the food.

Bu Fang was just a Spirit Divine Chef, but the dishes he cooked did not taste less delicious than that of an Earth Divine Chef's. Besides, they were all unique in their own ways, which made them much interesting and tastier than the monotonous dishes cooked by those Earth Divine Chefs.

When Luo Sanniang saw one of her best friends was happily enjoying an ice cream, she felt like having one as well.

Bu Fang carried a plate of oyster pancakes and came in front of an elegant woman. She had an ordinary face, but he found her somewhat familiar. ”Summer?” he asked. However, she did not reply. Instead, she took the plate from him, grabbed a pancake with her hand despite the hot oil, and took a bite from it.

The crispy pancake crunched between her teeth, and a tasty aroma spread from it in an instant. The woman's eyes curved like crescents as a faint smile brushed her lips. Without a doubt, she was Summer. Bu Fang never thought that she would come here to eat with a different face. Shaking his head, he turned and walked toward the kitchen.

”Mister Bu, congratulations on the opening of your restaurant!”

Just as he turned, someone laughed heartily behind him. King Pingyang's son, Hu Lu, strode through the door with a warm smile. He nodded at him. Though they got off to a bad start, they were friends now.

”Have a seat. What do you like to eat? The menu is on the wall behind you,” Bu Fang said.

”Haha! I just came to congratulate you on your opening, but now my appetite is aroused by all that delicious smell. Well, I think I'd better try your cooking,” Hu Lu said, taking a deep breath. Then, he seated himself in a chair and glanced at the menu. ”What is this ice cream?”

”The thing that girl is eating.” Bu Fang raised a hand and pointed at a girl in the distance, who was sticking out her tongue and licking at her ice cream. She was the daughter of an aristocratic family in the capital and Luo Sanniang's best friend, whose father was said to be a senior officer in the court. However, the way she ate her food was somewhat… horrible.
