Chu Changsheng casually took out a robe from his dimensional space and lifted his head, his white hair and beard billowing.
His voice was calm, but his words were weighty. Reaching the Almighty Realm, Chu Changsheng had become so solemn. At first glance, he gave people an impressive and intimidating might.
Although he was very grateful that Bu Fang had given him a chance to break through—and he did break through—he still wanted to bring Xiao Ya back with him. He could confirm now that Xiao Ya had the key to open the inheritance in her body.
By bringing her back to the Valley of Gluttony, the inheritance would be unlocked, and Xiao Ya would have the chance to receive the Valley of Gluttony’s inheritance.
At this point, Chu Changsheng wouldn’t give way no matter what.
Bu Fang frowned after listening to Chu Changsheng, feeling a little skeptical. His bandaged hand gently rubbed Xiao Ya’s head. Then, he looked at Chu Changsheng with a suspicious face.
“I don’t wanna go! I want to stay at big brother’s!” Hearing that Chu Changsheng wanted to take her away, Xiao Ya was so anxious. She turned and hugged Bu Fang’s thigh, screaming.
Chu Changsheng was dumbstruck.
Bu Fang wore an indifferent face.
Nangong Wuque couldn’t help watching the little girl hug Bu Fang’s thigh. He said to Chu Changsheng, “Elder, Xiao Ya likes to stay here. Just let her stay, alright? She’s just a kid. Don’t make it awkward for everyone.”
“Shut up,” Chu Changsheng said calmly, turning around to glance at Nangong Wuque.
They didn’t understand. They didn’t understand how crucial Xiao Ya is to the Valley of Gluttony…
They may see the Valley of Gluttony as a prosperous and bustling place, but being the Great Elder of the Valley of Gluttony, Chu Changsheng had always seen everything through. Because, behind the Valley of Gluttony, a giant, terrifying beast was watching and waiting for a chance to swallow the valley.
That ferocious beast was none other than the Royal Gardens Holy Grounds.
Not only the Heavenly Spring Holy Grounds, but the other Holy Grounds also wanted to share a bowl of soup in the Valley of Gluttony.
They aimed at the Valley of Gluttony’s treasures, the Valley of Gluttony’s inheritance. At its prosperous time, the Valley of Gluttony was much stronger than the other Holy Grounds. Even though it had been declining, its inheritance was still very attractive.
Chu Changsheng would never let the Valley of Gluttony’s inheritance fall into the hands of those packs of the Royal Gardens Holy Grounds!
Thus, this little girl… must go with him!
“You old man, the little girl can eat delicious food and drinks here. Why should she follow you to the Valley of Gluttony?” Nangong Wuque pouted. He felt as if he got a slap in the face.
Chu Changsheng narrowed his eyes. His gaze scanned over him, and the pressure started to spread.
Nangong Wuque felt as though a mountain had pressed on his body, suffocating him.
“Y-You…”
“Did you mean that the little girl won’t enjoy good cuisine when she goes to the Valley of Gluttony? Well, I’m telling you, although this young chef’s cooking talent isn’t bad, in our Valley of Gluttony, he can’t even get into Top Five. In our Valley of Gluttony’s golden age, it would be a fool’s dream for someone like him to enter the Top Fifty of the Tablet of Gluttony!” As Chu Changsheng said this, his voice was full of pride for his Valley of Gluttony.
It was true that Bu Fang’s grilled Tiaotie’s hoof had helped him break through, entering the Almighty Realm. However, it didn’t say that Bu Fang’s cooking talent had reached the peak standard of the Valley of Gluttony.
Actually, Bu Fang’s cooking talent was at the first-grade chef at most. With Chu Changsheng’s keen eyes, of course, he could see that.
Moreover, the Valley of Gluttony had several Top-grade Chefs, who were much stronger than Bu Fang.
Bu Fang’s delicacy this time, the grilled Taotie’s hoof, could be considered a success because of the top-quality cooking ingredient. If he didn’t use the Taotie’s hoof, his dish wouldn’t be able to cause his clothes to explode.
With arched brows, Nangong Wuque dropped his jaw, looking at Chu Changsheng disbelievingly. He didn’t think that this kind and good-natured-looking old man could be so shameless!
He dared to say Old Bu’s cooking talent wasn’t a thing!
Old Bu’s cooking talent was the most awesome thing Nangong Wuque had ever encountered. This old fogy got a huge harvest in his cultivation after eating Old Bu’s food, and yet he could still be so arrogant and stupid.
Really shameless!
“This Young Master is too lazy to talk to you.” Smirking, Nangong Wuque snorted and turned away.
Chu Changsheng’s eyes swept around the restaurant and fell on the little girl again. He said calmly, “Possibly, you’re not clear about how important your identity is. Your identity deprived you of your freedom. If you hadn’t had the Black Taotie’s soul sealed in your body, you would have been soon brought to the Glutton God’s City… You were born to belong to Glutton God’s City.”
Xiao Ya opened her big eyes and turned to Chu Changsheng. She snorted, turned away, and continued to clutch Bu Fang’s thigh. She didn’t care about Chu Changsheng.
Chu Changsheng coughed, feeling embarrassed at being a recipient of such a snub. He had been frank, but the little girl didn’t give him face. Was it really hard to go to the Valley of Gluttony with him?
“You like eating, don’t you? The Valley of Gluttony has so many chefs. They will cook special food for you every day. I’m sure it will be much more delicious than what this young chef could cook…” Chu Changsheng sighed then looked at Bu Fang. He thought maybe Bu Fang could make the final decision and convince this little girl.
However, when Chu Changsheng lifted his head, he found Bu Fang… in a daze?
Indeed, Bu Fang was in a daze. Because at that moment, the serious voice of the system sounded in his brain.
“Elder Chu Changsheng of the Valley of Gluttony doubts your cooking talent and disdains you. If you want to become the God of Cooking who tops the food chain of the fantasy world, you must show him that he has to pay a big price for despising the future God of Cooking.
“Current Mission: Go to the Valley of Gluttony, challenge the Top Ten Chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony and win their kitchen knives. The future God of Cooking can’t be shamed. Mission Reward: Four Symbols Fire Control Skill.”
The system’s reminder left Bu Fang a little confused.
He had just returned from the Valley of Gluttony. Why did the system want him to go there again? And this time, it was fiercer. Challenging the Top Ten Chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony? Wasn’t it too crazy?
Weren’t the Top Ten Chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony at Wenren Shang’s level?
Chef’s Challenge… Defeat the others and take their kitchen knives?
Bu Fang arched his brows, feeling that the instruction was a little cruel and improper.
“Must I do something extreme like that? Hey, system!”
Chef’s Challenge… The loser would be deprived of the right to cook and even their kitchen knife… To a chef, it would be a massive blow.
“Host, please don’t worry. The system has changed the rules. Even if they lose, their right to cook won’t be taken away from them. Also, they still have chances to challenge you to take their kitchen knives back,” replied the serious voice of the system.
Hearing those words, Bu Fang exhaled in relief. If it would be like that, then it won’t be too bad.
However, what the system said next made Bu Fang’s square-shaped face froze.
“If you fail the Chef’s Challenge, your right to cook will be deprived together with your God of Cooking’s set, your innate cooking talent. You will never be a chef again,” the system announced in a cold tone. Bu Fang felt like he had just fallen into a sea of ice. He gasped, and it felt like he was almost suffocating.
“If I lose the Chef’s Challenge, my cooking talent would be taken together with the God of Cooking’s set? I would never be a chef again? Is it the price and punishment for losing the battle?” thought Bu Fang as his eyes narrowed. After a while, he exhaled. His entire body soaked in sweat.
The meaning of the system was to train him to become the God of Cooking who topped the food chain in the fantasy world. It wouldn’t allow a failure in Chef’s Challenge.
Previously, the system wouldn’t require Bu Fang harshly like that. However, getting back from the Valley of Gluttony, Bu Fang’s cooking attainment, his qualifications, his competence, opportunities… could defeat the Valley of Gluttony’s chefs.
That’s why the system had given Bu Fang a strict requirement and punishment. It wanted to make Bu Fang cut off his means of retreat.
As the God of Cooking, he must be resolute and determined.
Bu Fang had heard from the God of Cooking’s set’s spirit that the system used to have a host that died at the very final step. In other words, the path to become a God of Cooking wasn’t simple and easy at all…
Thinking about that, Bu Fang suddenly felt his body shiver. It seemed like the cells under his skin were shivering in excitement. Indeed, it was really exciting.
“Okay, if that’s the case… I will level everything! Nothing can stop me!” Bu Fang exhaled deeply, his face emotionless. However, there was a gleam of sharpness in his eyes!
He liked his cozy and small restaurant, but he wouldn’t let his career of being a God of Cooking die young!
At that moment, Chu Changsheng was still standing in front of Bu Fang. He was absent-minded for a moment, and he felt that Bu Fang had some great epiphany happening within him, which made his heart jump at once.
What happened?
How come this young chef’s aura changed all of a sudden? It was a great change. That pressing-forward sharpness seemed able to break everything. Chu Changsheng was shaken in fear.
Unexpectedly, Chu Changsheng felt the aura of the Valley of Gluttony’s Master from Bu Fang!
How could it be?
Bu Fang didn’t move his gaze, his indifferent face watching Chu Changsheng. His bandaged hand patted Xiao Ya’s head, making her lift her head to look at him.
“You want to take Xiao Ya back to the Valley of Gluttony? No problem… But you should return first. Three days later, I will escort her back to the Valley of Gluttony.”
Chu Changsheng was happy when he heard the first part of Bu Fang’s saying. However, the second part left him dumbstruck.
“Why do you want to go to the Valley of Gluttony again?”
Bu Fang’s eyes were cold and unconcerned. He slowly studied Chu Changsheng then parted his lips to say, “Don’t you want Xiao Ya there? Simple… I’m going to the Valley of Gluttony, and I’m going to carry out a Chef’s Challenge against the Top Ten Chefs of the Tablet of Gluttony. If someone defeats me, I won’t say a word. But if no one defeats me…”
Bu Fang paused before he slightly lifted his head, glancing at Chu Changsheng. His overbearing aura expanded as he finally said, “What qualifications do you have to doubt my cooking skill?”
