Chapter 1715 - The Nine-Marks Chaotic Tea Egg (1/2)

It was an egg surrounded by a mighty aura, and its center seemed to burst with streams of light.

Bu Fang held it in one hand and used the other to lightly tap it a few times. Countess Xia Qiu had fended off Countess Aitang’s fury for him, which had saved him a lot of trouble.

Naturally, Countess Aitang would not dare to start a war with Countess Xia Qiu, for the latter’s strength was not weak in Void City. She was not a fool to start a war with another countess just for the sake of an egg.

Then, after the divine phoenix examined the remaining eggs and reported to her, she breathed a sigh of relief. What Bu Fang had stolen was just a dead egg. If it was a fertile egg, she would have taken it back no matter what.

But since it was just a dead egg, though it was equally precious, she did not value it too much. She had plenty of dead eggs.

Within Countess Xia Qiu’s residence, Bu Fang held the egg and came to a courtyard. Many servants turned their eyes to Bu Fang, wondering how he was going to handle the divine phoenix egg.

The countess did not let them watch. She ordered everyone to leave the courtyard, while she looked expectantly at Bu Fang. At first, she did not expect much from this dish. She just wanted to be able to feel the passion that the old man had been chasing.

However, her interest was aroused when she saw the divine phoenix egg.

…

Bu Fang did not pay attention to the others. He washed his hands and was ready to start cooking the tea egg.

He was going to cook a dish with the tea leaves taken from a Chaotic-Saint-level tea tree and the egg of a divine beast that was on the same level. This would be the most extravagant dish he had ever cooked, although it was only a tea egg.

He filled the Black Turtle Constellation Wok with the Spring of Life. The divine flame jumped out and darted under the wok. Scorching heat burst out of it, causing the temperature of the wok to rise in an instant. Soon, the water began to boil, bubbling noisily.

Bu Fang washed the divine phoenix egg and put it into the wok. The boiling water emanated fluctuations, which kept impacting the eggshell and worked on the content of the egg. As the water continued to boil, the egg began to spin.

Bu Fang’s mental force spread and enveloped the egg. He could see that everything inside the egg began to gradually solidify.

He cooked the egg on high heat. The water kept boiling. When the egg’s content was solidified, he turned the heat down. Three, two, one… Under his control, the crimson flames, which spun like lotus flowers, decreased to only one. The tiny lotus flower spun slowly, heating the wok gently.

During the process, not a hint of the egg’s aroma was leaked, so the process was boring and uninteresting. However, when the egg was cooked…

Bu Fang dismissed the flame, poured out the boiling water, and used cold water to wash the divine phoenix egg. Finally, undeterred by the scorching heat covering the eggshell, he reached out a hand and grabbed the egg. He did not protect his hand with divine power, which puzzled Countess Xia Qiu.

Click.

Bu Fang clenched his palm, causing the eggshell to crack. The delicious aroma of the egg burst forth in an instant, washing over him and everyone present. It was an extraordinary aroma, and his cooking method was remarkable.

‘Is he done?’ Countess Xia Qiu was somewhat stupefied as she watched. ‘This doesn’t seem difficult at all, does it?’ She could not help but feel a little disappointed. She would rather not eat an egg like this.

Was Bu Fang done? Of course not yet.

He filled the wok with the Spring of Life again, and this time, he added a variety of divine herbs.

Looking at those divine herbs, Countess Xia Qiu narrowed her eyes. Those were all unusual divine herbs, many of which were the ingredients of some top-grade pills in Void City.

These herbs were added directly into the wok. Under Bu Fang’s control, their essences kept spreading and infused the water. However, they were only supplementing ingredients. The main ingredient was the tea leaves taken from the Chaotic-Saint-level Soul Cleansing Tea Tree.

Of the three tea leaves, Bu Fang gave one to Niu Hansan so that he could carry out his hybridization experiment. As for the remaining two, he planned to use them to make this tea egg.

He folded the tea leaves and cut them in half with the kitchen knife. After that, he used a clean wok to stir-fry them. The tea leaves remained bright green and crispy after the stir-fry, but a strong aroma of tea began to waft out of them. The tea aroma was the key.

Bu Fang put the stir-fried tea leaves into the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. The tea aroma pervaded the air like a dream, while a faint glow floated over the surface of the tea broth.

Soon, the color of the broth changed. It was transparent, but after all the ingredients were added, it turned brownish red. The egg rolled inside, with the cracked part greedily sucking the broth.

The broth seeped into the egg, causing its surface, which was pure white and glowing with divine light, to slowly grow darker. It was as if its divine light was being wiped away, like a beautiful swan had turned into an ugly duckling.

Bu Fang controlled the divine flame again, causing its temperature to keep rising. Soon, the scorching heat completely enveloped the tea egg. A vortex emerged inside the wok and swallowed the egg. However, as it spun, the egg gradually reappeared at its center.

The brownish-red broth churned like the choppy sea. A tremendous amount of energy began to pour into the egg. It seemed that the tea egg was about to be ready.
