Chapter 1589 - The Blue Planet (2/2)

The top floor of the Luo Family’s skyscraper… No, not just the top floor—from the ground floor of the recently repaired skyscraper all the way up the top floor was packed with people lining up to get inside the restaurant.

Luo Sanniang squeezed through the crowd, climbed to the top floor, walked past the line outside the door, and stepped into the restaurant. She was instantly washed over by the noisy sound of people talking and eating.

Every patron’s face was red as they ate. They bared their teeth, their lips swelling, but their eyes were shining. There was a strange smell in the air, which was a little stinky and sour. In short, it was not a pleasant smell.

Soon, Luo Sanniang’s eyes got big because she found that the stench actually came from the bowls in those patrons’ hands!

“Dammit! This smells so good!”

“Delicious! It’s spicy and sour… so tasty that I can swallow my own tongue!”

“Oh my! I’ve never tasted anything so great! The broth is sweet but doesn’t lack the sourness… This is simply the best delicacy of the mortal world!”

The patrons kept praising as they ate frantically, slurping noodles and drinking broth with a look of happiness on their faces. They were enjoying the river snails rice noodles cooked by Bu Fang. Each of them had a bowl, and they looked as happy as deities.

The people waiting in the line outside were so hungry that their mouths kept watering. Only those who had tried the river snails rice noodles could understand its unique flavor. It was a kind of enchanting taste.

Ting-a-ling!

The kitchen’s curtain was lifted, and then Bu Fang walked out of it, holding two bowls of rice noodles in his hands. The Xiayi crown prince promptly took them from him, turned, and walked toward a table. Everything was so orderly.

Nethery was helping as well. As for Er Ha, the fellow was chatting with Luo Sanniang’s girlfriends in a corner. When these girls saw Luo Sanniang, they waved at her happily.

Bu Fang went back into the kitchen. Shrimpy perched on his shoulder, rolling its little round eyes. He took out some food ingredients and began cooking again. The daily operation of the restaurant was actually a repetition of the tedious task of cooking. However, it was this tedious task that slowly but surely improved his cooking skills.

What happened after the disaster of the Soul Demon, Bu Fang did not know. Lately, he had ignored everything else except for cooking. Every day, he opened the restaurant and cooked in the kitchen. When the day was over, he cooked some delicious delicacies and enjoyed them with his friends.

Occasionally, the Xiayi Divine Emperor would come to eat and drink for free in the restaurant, but Bu Fang did not mind. Days passed by at a steady pace, and the dynasty capital had regained its former prosperity and flourishing.

…

The stars were flickering in the sky. Bu Fang stood on the skyscraper’s rooftop, looking up at the starry sky to relax his body and mind.

His cultivation base had reached the God Emperor realm, which made him one of the top existences in the Chaotic Universe. However, because of that, he had also come to a bottleneck.

Bu Fang wanted to become a God of Cooking, and this was definitely not the end of his journey. He still needed to move forward. Therefore, he had to break through the God Emperor realm and advance to an even stronger realm. However, how to break through was a major problem for him.

He had forcibly broken through into the God realm on his own effort, with the shining all heavens. So the ordinary way of becoming a Heavengod naturally would not work for him. Bu Fang sighed.

Apart from that, it was almost time for him to get prepared to wake up the God of Cooking Sets’ Artifact Spirits. He reckoned that the exact location where the Artifact Spirits were sleeping was about to be revealed to him.

Sure enough, just as Bu Fang was pondering, the System’s serious voice rang out in his head.

‘Attention, Host. Does the Host want to teleport to the sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits?’ the System asked.

Staring at the starry sky with a deep look in his eyes, Bu Fang took a deep breath and said, ‘Yes.’ He had to face it anyhow. If the God of Cooking Sets were imperfect, he would not be able to truly step onto the peak of the God of Cooking. So, he had to wake up the Artifact Spirits.

After Bu Fang answered, the System fell silent. It was a long time before it spoke again, ‘The qualification has been validated. Attention, Host. The teleportation to the sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits will begin in three hours. A friendly reminder: The sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits is very dangerous. Please be prepared.’

‘Oh? The teleportation will begin in three hours? So fast?’ Bu Fang paused slightly. However, three hours was enough for him to prepare his things. In fact, he did not have many things to prepare.

The sleeping place of the Artifact Spirits was very dangerous, so Bu Fang planned to go there himself. However, as soon as he turned around, he saw Nethery standing behind him, giving him a look that made his scalp go numb.

Without a doubt, she knew that he was about to teleport to somewhere else, and she wanted to follow. Bu Fang could not reject her.

They went back to the restaurant. Bu Fang briefly explained the situation to the Xiayi crown prince and the Titian crown prince. After making arrangements for the restaurant’s operation when he was gone, he began to prepare for the teleportation.

Lord Dog was still sleeping under the Path-Understanding Tree. No one dared to be disrespectful to him nowadays, including the Xiayi Divine Emperor. After all, his true identity was a Heavengod, so who would dare offend him?

When everything was prepared, Bu Fang came to the top floor of the skyscraper—the teleport array would be activated here. He was clad in the Vermilion Robe, with Shrimpy perched on one shoulder and Foxy on the other. Nethery stood quietly at his side, waiting to be teleported.

Many people had come to see them off when they learned that Bu Fang was going to travel to a far place. The Xiayi Divine Emperor was here as well, and eventually, the whole divine dynasty was shaken. Before long, the Luo Family’s skyscraper was surrounded by rings of people. This showed how popular Bu Fang was.

Looking at all the people, Bu Fang exhaled deeply. The next moment, the System’s cold and serious voice rang in his head. Dots of white light began to emerge around him and converged into a mysterious array. It was many times more profound than any of the previous arrays, and it seemed to absorb the souls of those who glanced at it.

As soon as the array appeared, it slowly spun. Then, as all the people watched, Bu Fang, Foxy, Nethery, and Shrimpy gradually dissolved into dots of white light and quietly… scattered and faded away.

Bu Fang was in a trance. He felt the people before his eyes grew blurry, and even Nethery, who stood at his side, became vague. Eventually, only darkness was left in his eyes.

He had no idea how long had passed, but finally, he saw a flash of light in that endless darkness. Soon, the flash of light grew into a planet.

It was a… blue planet.
