Gourmet of Another World

Everyone gasped when the slender figure appeared. “There he is!” The onlookers all stared wide-eyed in shock. The Lord of the Divine Chef Temple, Bu Fang, the exceptional Demigod the Crown Prince was looking for, had finally appeared. The fact that he was challenged by the Crown Prince was enough to make him famous throughout the whole capital.

The heirs of the various Kings were watching nervously. They were defeated by the Crown Prince, but they had grown used to it. The next battle, however, was making their blood boil because Bu Fang and the Crown Prince had never fought before.

No one could predict the outcome of the battle. After all, the potential and strength Bu Fang had shown since his debut were no worse than the average young master. In fact, he could even easily crush most of them. And even though he only comprehended a supreme Law, he had two divine powers. That should qualify him to fight with the Crown Prince.

All the people on the second floor of the Divine Chef Temple held their breaths as they heard the clear footsteps ringing through the air.

The Crown Prince, with his disheveled hair, squinted and watched as Bu Fang approached from the distance. ‘So this is Bu Fang, the Lord of the Divine Chef Temple who Mother asked me to cripple and kill…’

Before he came here, he had found out everything about Bu Fang. He knew that the chef had fought Hu Lu, killed Mo Hen and a high-grade God, and even slew a God King with some special means. In addition, he possessed divine powers and comprehended the Law of Transmigration, which was also a supreme Law of the Universe.

All this, Xia Yi had to admit, showed the chef’s amazing talent. He felt a thrill in the face of such a genius. He had been lonely for too long. For a long time, he had not encountered anyone who could fight him. Now, he just hoped Bu Fang wouldn’t disappoint him.

“I heard you are looking for me?” Bu Fang glanced indifferently at the Crown Prince in the distance, his Vermilion Robe flapping noisily.

Summer hovered in midair with her eyes flickering, making it impossible for anyone to see what she was thinking.

“You’ve shown up at last… The Lord of the Divine Chef Temple,” Xia Yi said with a chuckle, looking curiously at Bu Fang.

Bu Fang stared at him with a straight face and said, “What do you want from me? Tell me what you need and be quick about it. I’m very busy. I have to open my restaurant at dawn.”

That made the Crown Prince narrow his eyes, and a sharp look burst out of them. ‘Is this guy looking down on me? He’s completely uninterested and not taking this seriously…’

“Your restaurant? Very well, I’ll be there when I have time. One of my passions is to taste good food. I hope your dishes don’t disappoint me.” Xia Yi chuckled. “If you can survive today, of course.”

As soon as he said that, the atmosphere in the air sharpened. All the people present felt as if a knife was cutting through their hearts. The Crown Prince’s power was indeed horrible.

“Fight with me. If you win, you can continue to open your restaurant safely, and I will never disturb you again. If you lose, you will come with me to the palace, kneel before my mother, kowtow, and beg her pardon.

“If you lose, your life will be mine.” Xia Yi said.

His remark set the whole crowd in an uproar. That was too much to ask! No one expected the Crown Prince to make such a request. How could Bu Fang be foolish enough to agree to this? The faces of many experts in the Divine Chef Temple grew colder. They knew that the Crown Prince had come here with malice this time.

Summer’s face was wrapped in a haze, so no one could tell what mood she was in now. But apparently, she wasn’t happy. After all, she was the deputy of the Divine Chef Temple, even though she would leave soon. However, she didn’t say anything because it was now Bu Fang who made all the decisions here.

Xia Yi’s eyes were sharp, and the corner of his mouth curved upward. He didn’t think Bu Fang would agree to his request, so he had prepared his next pitch. This was the Divine Chef Temple, after all. He was fearsome, but he knew that there were God Kings guarding this building. Should he be seized by force, perhaps only the Divine Emperor could come forward and take him away. As the Crown Prince, if such a thing happened, he would be ashamed.

Just when he felt that Bu Fang would not agree and even prepare to make another request, Bu Fang spoke.

“Fine, I accept your challenge, but I want to change something. You said if I lose, my life will be yours, but if you lose, you just have to leave and nothing will happen to you. Is that fair?” Bu Fang shook his head and then said lightly, “If you lose, you will stay and be a waiter in my restaurant, and your life will be mine. How about that?”

‘What a presumptuous fellow!’ Xia Yi’s eyes gleamed fiercely and surged with anger. ‘He’s too bold! Does he think he can defeat me?!’

The experts around them gasped. They also thought Bu Fang was too crazy. Such a condition was like a slap in the Crown Prince’s face. If he did lose, would he really be forced to work as a waiter? Even the Divine Emperor would be embarrassed if this happened!

“Alright, I accept it… Because you don’t stand a chance to defeat me! You have no idea how strong I am!” Xia Yi’s hair spread and waved around him, making him look like a fierce devil.

Bu Fang nodded, and the onlookers erupted into another uproar.

Soon, the news spread like waves throughout the capital, causing the whole city to boil. The Crown Prince was going to fight the Lord of the Divine Chef Temple! This was an unprecedented battle, the ultimate clash of two exceptional Demigods!

“Very well. Since both of you have agreed to fight each other… I will create a battlefield for you so that you can fight with all your might,” Summer finally spoke. Wrapped in hazy light, she looked mysterious. “Give me an hour, then you can fight to your heart’s content. You might want to use this time to prepare yourself.”

The next moment, she reached out her hands, tore the void, and stepped into it. Right after that, there was a muffled rumble in the void as if something terrible was stirring inside.

As the news spread, people began to fly over the main streets of the capital in the middle of the night. They were moving so fast that they looked like shooting stars. Warships, dragon-horse chariots, or men sped through the air in the sky, on the streets, or over rooftops, all on their way to the Divine Chef Temple to witness the battle that would surely shake the world and go down in history.

Inside the palace, the Imperial Concubine’s eyes were shining as the nine phoenixes circled gracefully behind her.

“Yi’er is going to fight that little beast?! Good, Good! Yi’er has more gifts than any man has ever had, and he will definitely succeed to the throne of the Divine Emperor… That little beast is dead this time!” she said, clenching her fists. Then, she ordered her maids and eunuchs to bring her to the Divine Chef Temple so she could watch the battle.

Luo Hui, Luo Sanniang, and other experts were rushing out of their residence impatiently.

Meanwhile, in King Pingyang’s residence…

Standing outside a secret chamber used for cultivating in seclusion, King Pingyang slapped the solid stone door and shattered it into pieces.

“Dad… What are you doing?!” Hu Lu stared at King Pingyang with a stupefied look and almost coughed out a mouthful of blood.

“The Crown Prince and Bu Fang are going to fight in the Divine Chef Temple. If you don’t watch this battle, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life. I’m doing this for your own good!” King Pingyang said.

‘The Crown Prince and Bu Fang are going to have a battle?’ Hu Lu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes burst into light. He rushed straight for the Divine Chef Temple, forgetting that he was cultivating in seclusion.

The Mo Family, Zhao Family, and many other aristocratic families all sent their experts to the Divine Chef Temple. Every man the Mo Family sent looked fierce and angry, and they were expecting the Crown Prince to avenge them. After all, Xia Yi’s mother was a Mo, and that made him a Mo as well.

Before long, all kinds of luxurious warships landed outside the building that was the Divine Chef Temple, and one expert after another stepped out of them. Instead of greeting and talking to each other, they walked straight toward the building with their heads down. The highlight of the night was the battle between Xia Yi and Bu Fang.

An hour later, the void at the top of the building tore apart, and Summer’s graceful figure slowly walked out of it. Her aura fluctuated, and she waved her hand. The void in front of her immediately gave a deafening rumble.

Many experts present gasped and looked up at the void. There, an empty and boundless space filled with energy emerged. It seemed to be made up of countless smaller spaces, and because of that, it was much more stable. This was the battlefield Summer had specially created for Bu Fang and Xia Yi.

The Crown Prince’s eyes sparkled. ‘She deserves to be a God King…’ He also comprehended the Law of Space, but if he were to accomplish what she had done, he still had a long way to go. He took a step forward, and the void seemed to be constantly compressed under his feet. The next moment, he stepped into the space that Summer had created.

Bu Fang also walked into the space at a steady pace.

As soon as they were inside, they seemed to be isolated from the rest of the world. They couldn’t hear anyone, and they couldn’t hear any noise. All that remained was Xia Yi’s violent aura and the flapping sound of Bu Fang’s Vermilion Robe. Because the space was transparent, the people below the building just needed to look up to see the battle clearly.

The Imperial Concubine had arrived in her phoenix palanquin and stopped in a corner to watch the battle. She had full confidence in her son, the Crown Prince. Many God Kings were hiding in the void as well, watching with great interest.

It was not exaggerating to call this battle an unprecedented battle. The clash between two geniuses with amazing talents attracted many people, but what excited them the most was the bet between them.

If Bu Fang lost, he would be reduced to the Crown Prince’s prisoner, and his life would be in the Crown Prince’s hand.

If the Crown Prince lost, he would become Bu Fang’s prisoner, and his life would be in Bu Fang’s hand.

Therefore, this battle would decide their fate, their life and death! At the thought of this, the crowd became excited, and every one of them breathed faster and faster.

Hu Lu and Luo Sanniang hid in the void and watched the battle at the top of the building. They were both worried. Could Bu Fang really fight the Crown Prince? This was not only their doubt but also the doubt of the onlookers.

“It has started!”

Someone cried out, raising his hand and pointing to the top of the building. There, the battle broke out in the invisible space!

Xia Yi let out a long roar. His voice seemed to come from ancient times and spread in all directions, ringing beside every ear as if to tear the eardrum.

In the space, Xia Yi completely released his aura. A horrible burst of pressure swept across the whole area in an instant. Suddenly, the Wheel of Law emerged in front of him and condensed into a golden bow with an arrow on it. The next moment, the arrow shot forward, turning into a roaring golden dragon.

As soon as he shot the arrow, he disappeared and, like teleportation, appeared in front of Bu Fang, throwing a punch with a force enough to bring down a mountain at his face!

The arrow and the punch were both heading toward Bu Fang at the same time!
