Chapter 1673 - Meet Mu Hongzi Again (2/2)
As he entered the Great Netherworld’s territory, several small warships suddenly flew over and surrounded him. That gave him pause. “Hmm… When did they get these warships?”
He stepped out of his warship. Energy cannons began to converge on the muzzles of those warships, all aiming at him.
Glancing at the continent, Bu Fang took a deep breath.
At this moment, a young man flew out of one of the warships and said, “Who are you? Surrender now!”
This was a young man whose cultivation base was at the level of a Nine-revolution Little Saint. He was staring at Bu Fang with high spirits and an excited look on his face.
Bu Fang put his hands behind him, his face expressionless. He had not expected that he would be greeted by this kind of situation the moment he returned to the Netherworld. A faint smile brushed his lips, and he shook his head.
It seemed to him that the Netherworld had been doing very well these years. Mu Hongzi really put his heart and soul into it.
“Are you dumb or deaf? I’m talking to you!” cried the young man, frowning. There was a slight look of apprehension in his eyes. After all, Bu Fang’s warship was much more advanced than theirs.
‘This man should be an intruder from another great world. If I can capture him, the Realm King will surely double his appreciation for me and then reward me with cultivation techniques. Perhaps I can even take this opportunity to enter the Immortal Cooking Realm, cultivate there, and get a chance to break through to the Great Saint realm!’ thought the young man.
Bu Fang still shook his head. Ignoring the few warships, he shifted his gaze to the vast Great Netherworld. “Do you know where Mu Hongzi is?” he asked.
“How dare you! The name of the Realm King is not for an intruder like you to mention! Everyone, attack this intruder and take him down!” said the young man angrily.
“An intruder?” Bu Fang froze for a moment. He shook his head again helplessly. It seemed that he had been away for too long that many people had forgotten who he was.
The next moment, the warships did not hesitate to shoot their energy cannons at Bu Fang to blow him to pieces. This was the latest weapon developed by the Netherworld, which was a very powerful energy projectile.
The young man was very excited. He was only a Little Saint, but with all these warships around him, even a Great Saint would not dare to attack him.
They were the Star Guard specially selected by the Realm King, and he was proud to be part of the team. However, his pride was soon torn to shreds.
With hands behind his back, Bu Fang took a step forward. Those energy shells all stopped when they were an inch from him, and it looked as if they were frozen. Such a tactic was simply heaven-defying!
“You…” The young man was terrified.
Bu Fang just shook his head, too lazy to say anything to him. The unknowing was not guilty, so he did not feel the need to kill these people even though he could do it with just a snap of his fingers. He was not that kind of person.
With a buzzing sound, the fluctuations of the Law of Space spread from him. The next moment, he vanished from where he stood.
…
In the blink of an eye, Bu Fang came to Nether Prison. He found that it was well-governed and developing very quickly.
Without his mental force, it became somewhat troublesome for him to find Mu Hongzi. If he was still able to use it, he would just need to spread it out to find the man in a flash.
Now, he could only ask for directions like a normal person.
“The Realm King? He never stays in Nether Prison.”
This was the answer Bu Fang got after asking several people. It made him a little speechless to learn that Mu Hongzi did not stay in Nether Prison but the Immortal Cooking Realm.
According to the people he asked, the Immortal Cooking Realm was now the sacred land of the Great Netherworld. It was the cradle of talent, a place where only true geniuses could go.
Most of the people he asked looked wistful when they mentioned the Immortal Cooking Realm. “It is said that in the Immortal Cooking Realm there have been many geniuses who have broken through the bottleneck of the Great Saint and become Gods…”
The Immortal Cooking Realm’s status was radically different from what it was before Bu Fang left. This made him very interested. “This Mu Hongzi really has something…”
He tore the void and stepped into it. Soon, he came to the Immortal Cooking Realm. The moment he stepped out of the void, a divine sense enveloped him, then a person he never expected to meet here appeared in front of him.
“Huh? Summer?”
Looking at the beautiful woman before him, Bu Fang was dazed for a moment.
Summer showed no surprise at his arrival. On the contrary, her expression was somewhat complicated. “Mu Hongzi already knew you were coming and asked me to come and bring you to him,” she said.
Instead of taking Bu Fang to Mu Hongzi right away, she took him for a slow walk around the Immortal Cooking Realm.
The realm had changed dramatically since Bu Fang left. The Immortal Tree was thickly branched, and its crown thrust into the starry sky. However, he found that it was completely different from the previous one. At his level, he could see that the Immortal Tree did not get along well with the realm.
In any case, the Immortal Cooking Realm’s boom surprised him. He saw many Demigods and even a few Gods. It was worth noting that before he left, Demigods were already the strongest experts in the Netherworld.
At last, they came to the top of the Immortal Tree where a thatched hut stood.
When they arrived, a melodious song came out from the hut. Upon hearing it, Summer’s face darkened.
Soon, the song ended. The door opened, and Mu Hongzi’s face, more beautiful than a woman’s, appeared before Bu Fang. He stepped out of the hut and looked at Bu Fang with a smile.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk… Long time no see, little Bubu. You’ve no idea how much I’ve missed you!”
