Chapter 1617 - I Want to Eat a Dragon! (1/2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mulberry had transformed into a Vermilion Bird shrouded by scarlet flames and was flying toward the distance at great speed. Perhaps she was afraid of Bu Fang, or she simply wanted to break free of the restriction—she flapped her wings and flew away as fast as she could.

Bu Fang had not forgotten what the Qilin had said. If he wished to wake Mulberry’s consciousness, he needed to conquer this woman. How was he going to do that? For a chef, there was no better way to conquer a person than with a dish!

The Vermilion Bird cried, flapped her wings, and rose higher and higher. Her flames stained the sky red and kept spreading. However, Bu Fang was faster than her. As she flew toward the coastline like a fireball and was over the Jewel, Bu Fang arrived before her with just two steps.

The ribbon of divine sense stretched out again and caught the Vermilion Bird. In fact, Mulberry’s strength was very strong. Bu Fang could sense that she was much stronger than Patriarch Penglai and the others. However, perhaps because of the bond between them, she dared not to attack him.

The Vermilion Bird was caught. Bound by the ribbon, she transformed back to Mulberry. Her fiery red hair tumbled down her back as she blinked her big eyes at Bu Fang, pursed her lips, and moaned. Now that she could not escape, she chose to play with coquetry. Of course, this trick did not work on Bu Fang.

Grabbing her, Bu Fang landed on the Jewel, then found some clothes and made her put them on. After that, he began to think of ways to conquer her.

He stood on the prow of the ship and looked into the distance. He seemed to sense the aura of the other Artifact Spirits. The other spiritual energy sealing points should have broken as well. ‘Now that the other sealing points are broken, I wonder where those God of Cooking Sets had gone to…’

Bu Fang took a deep breath and then exhaled. In any case, what he needed to do next was to find all the God of Cooking Sets. However, he felt a little headache. He wondered if the other Artifact Spirits also behaved like Mulberry?

‘Do I need to conquer the Black Turtle, the White Tiger, and Nicholas the Handsome Dragon as well? Ai… Why is it so difficult to be a chef?’

…

The air horn blared, and the cruise ship sailed across the sea at full speed. The colorful spiritual energy rain was still falling from the sky. The world seemed to transform under the washing of the rainwater. Dark clouds dotted the sky as loud thunderclaps kept ringing out of them. It was as though some almighty experts were descending.

The cruise ship had been sailing for a long time, and the people on board began to feel strange and even terrified…

Bu Fang was lounging on the deck. Mulberry sat next to him, still bound by the ribbon. She looked forlorn, and she blinked her big eyes at Bu Fang, continuing to attack him with coquetry. It was useless, but she never got tired of it.

Over the last few days, Bu Fang had cooked a few dishes to conquer her, but none of them worked.

“Senior!”

Suddenly, Yu Ge rushed out of the cabin in horror, followed by Chief Luo, Xiao Ai, and the captain of the Jewel, who was a foreigner with thick brows and large eyes.

“What’s the matter?” Bu Fang opened his sleepy eyes. He was a man who liked to seek silence in the midst of noise. To put it simply, he liked to be lazy. Even though he knew the world had changed significantly, he was still very calm.

All the people on the cruise ship had been nervous for a long time. Some of them could not even sleep for days.

“Earth… Earth seems to have… grown larger!” Yu Ge said as he looked at Bu Fang in horror.

“Oh?” Bu Fang gave him a puzzled look.

“Under normal conditions, we can reach the coast of Hua in one day, but we’ve been sailing for so long, and we haven’t seen the coast…” Yu Ge explained. He had a very bold assumption. “Earth must have grown larger, so our return journey has become much longer than before!”

He felt it hard to believe. How could Earth get bigger? What kind of concept was this?

“This is normal. The increase in the density of spiritual energy had caused the world to transform. The original Earth could not support so much spiritual energy, so after absorbing the energy, it begins to grow larger, expanding…” Bu Fang yawned. This was something very normal, and he thought they all knew about it.

“Earth is growing larger… larger…” Yu Ge was dumbfounded, while Chief Luo, the monk, and the others behind him sucked in their breaths.

The captain, on the other hand, looked worried. Now that Earth had grown larger, he knew that the ship’s fuel would not be enough for them to return to the port.

After learning his concern, Bu Fang came out with a solution. He gave Shrimpy’s head a gentle pat. The mantis shrimp jumped into the sea immediately, and after some time, a huge whale leaped out of the water, spitting water through the hole on the top of its head.

Under Shrimpy’s command, it pulled the Jewel and swam toward the coast at top speed. For the very first time, the people on board witnessed how a huge cruise ship flew across the sea like a racing car.

…

Soon, they reached the port. After getting off the Jewel, Bu Fang left with Mulberry without saying goodbye to anyone. Yu Ge and the others took deep breaths as they watched him leave.

Once ashore, Chief Luo immediately contacted the headquarters of the State Supernatural Agency to learn about the changes of the world, while Yu Ge rushed back to the Immortal Island of Penglai. They all knew that something major was about to happen on Earth.

…

Bu Fang was walking in the street. The feeling was more obvious when he was in the city. The roads were wider, and the distance between houses had extended. It was as if the ground was stretched longer like rubber.

These were the changes brought by the recovery of spiritual energy. However, their impact on society was minor. The streets were still packed with pedestrians who looked busy and nervous. Most people were still working to earn their living.

Bu Fang raised his brows as he looked at Mulberry, who followed him at his elbow. He thought if he wanted to conquer her, he would need to offer her what she was hankering after.

“What do you like to eat?” he asked.

“Yee…” Mulberry put on a cute face and blinked at him.

“Do you like vegetables or meat?” Bu Fang asked again.

“Yee…”

“Since you are a bird, do you like to eat worms?” Bu Fang said after thinking for a while.

“Yee…” Mulberry still blinked her big eyes.
