Chapter 1474 - A Hopeless Situation! (1/2)

Hu Lu was somewhat dumbstruck. He felt everything in front of him was just a dream. The Crown Prince was… defeated? The man who once made him shiver, who he thought that he could never suppress, was defeated?

As he stared at the man sitting dejectedly in midair, the man who was so proud a moment ago, Hu Lu sighed with emotion. The Crown Prince was defeated, while the other legend was rising. The new legend was a… chef.

Bu Fang’s voice rang through the void. It was not loud, but all the people present were no mortals, so they heard him loud and clear. An uproar broke out instantly as no one could believe what they just heard.

“Is this chef… out of his mind?!”

“He really wants to make the Crown Prince a waiter in his restaurant? So crazy?!”

“The Imperial Concubine and the Mo Family won’t agree to this…”

The crowd was in an uproar. They felt Bu Fang was too insane. He should be content after defeating the Crown Prince. Although both of them had agreed to the bet before the battle, who would take it seriously?

It was true that Xia Yi was defeated, but he was still the noble Crown Prince, the successor to the throne who the Divine Emperor had picked. How could he be a waiter? If he really became a waiter, it would be a stain for the entire divine dynasty, making it a laughingstock for the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty and the Titan Divine Dynasty!

Therefore, the Crown Prince could never become a waiter. Bu Fang should not even mention it.

Xia Yi stared blankly at Bu Fang. The next moment, his eyes gradually became clear. He was defeated. He had never thought that he would lose, but he could not become Bu Fang’s waiter. No one would allow that to happen!

Bu Fang looked very calm. His finger, which was holding the Crown Prince’s chin, moved up and pointed at the latter’s brow. “Why? Do you want to go back on your word?” he asked, his face expressionless.

The Crown Prince opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.

Bu Fang looked at him, raised a hand, and patted him on the head. “Face your conscience and tell me if you want to go back on your word?”

The surrounding people were speechless. Did Bu Fang really think that the Crown Prince would become a waiter in his restaurant? He should know better! No way could that happen!

Xia Yi opened his mouth. He wanted to reject, but to his horror, he found he could not speak. He clutched his chest with a hand, for as soon as he tried to say something, he felt a stab of pain. ‘Does my conscience really forbid me to refuse?’

The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched slightly. With his hands clasped behind him, he looked coolly at the Crown Prince. “Do you take the bet for nothing? Since you’ve agreed to it, you have to fulfill it. You need to follow your conscience and your Dao Heart…” he said.

Xia Yi’s eyes narrowed. His mouth was wide open, and his body was shaking. ‘Do I really have to…’

“You’re uttering nonsense!”

Suddenly, a voice boomed in midair. It came from the Imperial Concubine, who was standing on the phoenix palanquin. Her voice interrupted the Crown Prince’s thought.

Xia Yi jerked his head around to look at his mother. He had never been defeated since he was born, and this was the first time. For a moment, he was at a loss, and he needed guidance. He thought perhaps his mother was the light that would show him his course. There was a look of hope in his eyes…

The Imperial Concubine was furious. The Crown Prince was her pride, but now he was defeated by the chef. If she allowed him to become a waiter working for the chef, she worried that he would be completely ruined. As a mother, she couldn’t let that happen.

The chef had killed her nephew and her friend, destroyed the Mo Family’s residence, and now he was trying to mess with his son’s mind. He deserved to die!

The phoenix palanquin moved as the nine phoenixes soared into the sky. In a flash, they crossed the void and came hovering in front of Bu Fang. Standing in the palanquin, the Imperial Concubine was shrouded in bright light like a deity, too magnificent to behold.

Her eyes were filled with monstrous killing intent as she fixed them on Bu Fang. She couldn’t endure the presence of this chef any longer. She couldn’t let her son be reduced to a waiter!

The experts of the aristocratic families in the surroundings didn’t move. They didn’t want to be dragged into this mess. Bu Fang had an unusual status, and now that he had defeated the Crown Prince, he had become the number one expert of the younger generation in the Xiayi Divine Dynasty. They dared not to offend him, so they chose to stand to the side and watch.

Summer took a step forward and appeared beside Bu Fang. She had an attractive figure, and though no one could see her face, she was definitely a beautiful woman. Standing at Bu Fang’s side, she looked at the Imperial Concubine and said, “When you lose the bet, you have to honor your word. Why? Can’t the Crown Prince afford to lose?”

“How could the Crown Prince be a waiter? What makes this chef think that he deserves the honor to be served by someone so noble?!” said the Imperial Concubine in a cold voice as her aura kept rising.

Summer furrowed her brows.

Bu Fang stood in midair and glanced indifferently at the Imperial Concubine. “You can take the Crown Prince away with you, but he will never make progress again for the rest of his life. Because he didn’t follow his Dao Heart.”

“Shut up!” the Imperial Concubine snapped. “Dao Heart? As soon as I kill you, his Dao Heart will return!”

That gave Bu Fang pause. She sounded so reasonable that he didn’t know how to reply to her.

The onlookers were silent, and they could only feel that a terrible aura was spreading over the top of the building.

King Pingyang didn’t get involved either. In fact, none of them was qualified to be involved in this matter. After all, what happened now would affect the Crown Prince’s future, so they dared not to intervene. Xia Yi was the successor the Divine Emperor had chosen. His Majesty wouldn’t approve of Xia Yi becoming a waiter, would he?

Rumble!

The Imperial Concubine’s aura exploded and spread across the sky, accompanied by the cries of the phoenixes around her. She had an amazing cultivation base. In fact, she was a God King.

“Is Her Highness going to attack Bu Fang?”

“But it’s rather disgraceful for Her Highness to attack someone…”

“Mister Bu is so awesome!”

The people down below were talking noisily and staring at the sky.

The Crown Prince staggered to his feet in midair, his aura fluctuating. The Imperial Concubine sped through the air and landed beside him.
