Bu Fang’s arm was bitten by the cursed snake, and a dark aura seemed to seep into it. He frowned and grunted.

Nethery’s pupils constricted, and she yanked the lady’s hand. The latter looked at her, then the cursed snake disappeared.

“Your sympathy is useless. When you return to Void City, you will understand how disgusting these chefs are,” said the lady faintly.

After glancing coldly at Bu Fang, she pulled back her hand and said to Nethery, “Take one last look at this chef. The Soul God is about to awaken, and the first thing he will do when he wakes up is to kill this chef. This may well be the last time you see each other.”

Nethery bit her lip. She did not listen to the lady but gave Bu Fang a complicated look.

“Bu Fang… give me another bowl of Dragon Blood Rice.”

Bu Fang felt a numbness in his arm. After being bitten by the cursed snake, some kind of energy seemed to have seeped into it. However, he did not refuse Nethery. He had prepared Dragon Blood Rice in advance.

With a flip of his hand, he produced a bowl of rice and handed it to her. He had stored many bowls of Dragon Blood Rice in the System’s storage space for emergencies.

Nethery took the bowl and ate the rice quietly.

The lady watched her eat. She was in no hurry, for she had plenty of time. In fact, at her level, time did not mean much.

Nethery ate quickly. Before long, she had finished eating. It was as delicious as ever. She did not think she could get tired of the Dragon Blood Rice no matter how many times she ate it.

After fusing with the power of the female corpse, she found that she had some extra memories in her head. Now, these memories had awakened and made her understand her origin.

She came from Void City, the home of Cursed Goddesses. The Cursed Goddess of each generation would have her memory sealed by the Queen of Curses and then banished to a different place. If the memory of a particular Cursed Goddess awakened, she would regain the recognition of Void City and could return as a candidate of the Queen’s successor.

Nethery could not refuse the lady’s request for her return. When she agreed to borrow the power of Void City, she had sealed her fate.

The lady before her was the reclaimer of Void City. In fact, she was once a Cursed Goddess, and now she was one of the guardians of Void City, a mighty expert with the cultivation base of a Chaotic Saint.

That was all Nethery knew. She would learn more secrets only after she returned to Void City.

The time had finally come for her and Bu Fang to part ways. It was a pity that she would never be able to eat the food he cooked from now on. She felt a little suffocated…

“Let’s go…” said the lady.

Nethery nodded.

Bu Fang frowned and wanted to stop them, but the lady raised a finger. A massive burst of Chaotic Energy erupted, causing the void to collapse. In the blink of an eye, the distance between him and them was stretched infinitely far.

“Chefs are not welcome in Void City. This comes from Her Majesty’s aversion to chefs. Of course, if you’re strong enough to be approved by Her Majesty, you can still come. However, that is basically impossible. You are too weak,” said the lady.

After that, she smiled, then took Nethery’s hand and slowly turned around.

Suddenly, everything in front of Bu Fang shrank to a tiny dot, and in just a twinkling of an eye, the dot disappeared. Even the terrible aura of a Chaotic Saint was gone.

Bu Fang stood where he was. The sun had sunk completely into the horizon, and the little bit of crimson in the sky was swallowed up by the darkness. The vault of heaven was covered with bright stars, which emitted a dazzling light.

He took a deep breath with neither sadness nor joy in his heart. Nethery had left. As the lady said, his strength was still too weak. He was not even qualified to keep Nethery here.

He had learned a lot from the lady’s words. She said she had seen a lot of chefs like him, and she seemed to be afraid of restaurants. Or maybe what really scared her was the System.

‘Could it be that the chefs she had met are the Hosts before me? There seems to be some kind of unknown relationship between the Hosts, Void City, and Soul Demons…’

Bu Fang lifted his head to look at the sky.

Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and the Celestial Dog watched him from a distance and did not disturb him. They knew that he needed to think about life now.

Bu Fang looked out at the vast starry sky with vacant eyes. The Artifact Spirits’ sighs could be heard ringing in his spirit sea.

‘Host, stick to the path of becoming the God of Cooking… Only when you stand at the top will you be able to see many things and look through the mists. Believe in yourself. You are the best,’ the System’s serious voice echoed in his head.

The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched slightly. The System had not comforted him for a long time. However, the System was right. Perhaps he would be able to see through all the fog that had been hanging over him once he became the God of Cooking and stood at the top.

He turned and walked into the restaurant, closing the door behind him with a creak.

…

The Chaotic Saint’s aura had disappeared, which made many Immortals sigh with relief. It would be hard for them to stop a Chaotic Saint from destroying the Ancestral Planet—it would be a nightmare for all if that really happened.

In the days that followed, the Ancestral Planet regained its peace.

The Immortals were all hidden in the mountains and no longer showed up in public. In the cities, however, the superhumans began to develop substantially. The development of the cultivation system gave the people a renewed enthusiasm and desire for cultivation.
