Chapter 1244 The Immortal Cooking Realm Is Being Targeted
The Vajra Realm expert was not only beaten up in front of the arena but also groped by someone in the chest. On top of that, the scene was transmitted to all the small worlds by the projection array. It made him the laughing stock of countless people.
“How dare he stand in the Great Demon King’s way? He’s courting death!
“The moral of the story is never underestimate any chef, because behind every chef, there are probably thousands of foodies, especially awesome chefs.”
“He thinks he can bully the Great Demon King because he has a big chest? Dammit! Give his chest a punch for me!”
Everyone in the Immortal Cooking Realm was cheering as they ate delicious food and enjoyed the Vajra Realm expert’s miserable howl.
Meanwhile, in the Vajra Realm, countless experts stared speechlessly at the light screen. After some time, someone broke the silence and said, “This fellow has disgraced us all! I can’t believe he got beaten up by so many people at the same time. This scene is transmitted to other small worlds… I think the name ‘Vajra Realm expert with a big chest and no brain’ will soon be well-known…”
…
More people were curious about the chef from the Immortal Cooking Realm. They couldn’t understand why so many experts, including a prominent monk from the West Little Buddhism Realm, stood up for him. Bringing with them their doubts, these people followed the group of men who had finished beating the burly guy as they headed to Bu Fang’s stall.
Before they could get close to the stall, they already smelled the rich aroma of meat in the air. The taste was unusual and had a unique flavor, which made their hearts beat faster.
“It smells delicious! The taste is simply intoxicating!”
“Why is it so fragrant?”
“Is that the smell of barbecue? No, it’s a taste that’s hard to put into words! I’ve never tasted something that smells like this!”
The group of people chattered and fixed their eyes on a stall not far away. The chef from the Immortal Cooking Realm, who had just shown his prowess in the arena, was busy cooking behind the stall with his sleeves rolled up. He grabbed a handful of meat skewers and pressed them all on an iron plate, filling the air with the unique aroma.
“Owner Bu! Give me a skewer of teppanyaki demon frog!”
“A skewer is not enough for me! I want ten skewers!”
“Owner, give me as many as you have!”
…
There was a long line of people at the front of the stall. Everyone’s eyes seemed to be spitting fire as they stared at the meat skewers on the iron plate, looking hungry and couldn’t wait to taste the food.
The sight startled those who had just arrived.
“What? He actually set up a stall near the arena? And the business seems to be booming?!”
Many people’s expressions changed slightly at the smell that filled the air. The aroma of the food stimulated their taste buds, causing their mouths to salivate and their bellies to growl.
“I can’t stand it anymore. I’m going to buy a skewer and taste it myself!”
Immediately, another group of people joined the long line in front of the stall.
Zhu Yan and his companions had already been stunned by the booming business of the stall. They were in awe of Bu Fang now. Both his fighting capacity and the popularity of his stall were completely beyond their imagination. Moreover, when they smelled the meaty aroma in the air, their appetites were also aroused.
“Because there are too many people, each person can now only buy one meat skewer at a time. If you want to eat another, please queue up again…”
Looking at the dense crowd, Bu Fang felt a little headache. However, his mood was cheerful and happy. In just a short time, his sales had reached a very frightening figure.
Demon frog meat was more popular than octopus tentacles. Every customer couldn’t wait to try it because it was more flavorful and chewy.
Before this, Bu Fang’s rule was that each person could only buy ten meat skewers at the most. He could cook thirty to forty skewers at a time, so he could complete orders for three to four people. It was a good speed, but he thought it was still too slow. Therefore, he made a change to limit each person to buy one skewer at a time. It was a lot faster, and he could serve thirty to forty people at a time, and as efficiency increased, customers who were impatient to wait had become less grumpy.
Fa Wu rolled up his robe, grinning from ear to ear. He held in his hand a skewer of reddish-brown demon frog meat, which was covered in a sauce that made it look particularly tempting. The layers of the steaming meat were very noticeable. When he gave it a deep sniff, the slightly spicy smell immediately squeezed into his nostrils and made him salivate even faster.
He tore off a small piece of meat with his teeth. The frog was actually white under its reddish-brown skin, and the texture was extremely smooth and chewy. The aroma of meat enveloped his taste buds and made him deeply intoxicated. His lips were oily, and his face was red.
The stall’s booming business caused a great uproar, and because the food was delicious, its reputation quickly spread among the crowd.
After buying from the stall, some people took their meat skewers around the arena and ate them while watching the match. This caused dissatisfaction among other audiences. Many people lost their interest in the competition and stared at the meat skewers in those people’s hands from time to time, and then those satisfied customers would always be kind enough to tell them where to buy the food. As a result, more and more people joined the queue to buy teppanyaki. Many people found the match a little boring without a meat skewer in their hands.
…
The next match was between the Abyss team and the North Cloud Sea team.
The North Cloud Sea was a small world that was not very strong, but it was not weak either. There were no Little Saints in its team, but all its contestants were half-step Saints. That made their overall strength stronger than that of the Blackwind Continent.
As for their opponent, the Abyss, most people didn’t know much about it because it had been a vassal world of Nether Prison until recently. Although many people had heard of its name, and many people from other small worlds would choose it as their destination if they were to flee from their homes, they didn’t have a clear understanding of its strength.
The contestants of the North Cloud Sea were all very proud.
In the arena, an Abyss law enforcer wearing a blood-colored robe hung his arms at his sides. Opposite him was an expert from the North Cloud Sea, who was holding a meat skewer in his hand. A delicious aroma wafted out of the meat, causing an uproar among the audience.
“He’s gone too far! How can he eat a meat skewer in the arena?”
“Bastard! I waited in line for half a day just to buy one meat skewer!”
“Finish it before starting the fight! Don’t waste such delicious food…”
Many people outside the arena stared at the North Cloud Sea expert and shouted loudly.
The expert grinned, lifted the skewer, and took a bite of the meat. Dripping with oil, the springy meat was separated from the wooden stick, and he chewed it with relish. The other contestants from the North Cloud Sea were also eating meat skewers.
The scene was transmitted to many surrounding worlds through the projection array.
“Wow! What’s he eating?”
“This is absurd! How can he eat during the match? This is sheer nonsense!”
“The meat skewer looks delicious! I want to try it…”
Looking at the light screens, many experts in the surrounding worlds felt their mouth water. The appearance of the meat skewer had made the boring matches more interesting and thus attracted more people to watch it.
“Just a minute, brother. Let me finish this meat skewer first, and then we’ll start the match. Such delicious food is not to be wasted,” the expert from the North Cloud Sea said to his opponent while chewing the demon frog meat.
Commander Mo Yuan looked speechlessly at him. ‘Is eating really that important to you?’ he thought.
“Well, I’ll wait for you…” the Abyss expert smiled darkly. His voice sounded a little cold.
The next moment, a powerful aura burst from him, then his body abruptly turned into a bloody beam of light and shot forward at full speed. At the same time, he produced a black scythe and slashed it out at the North Cloud Sea expert.
The Abyss expert shocked everyone with his move. The oppressive pressure that emanated from him and made everyone breathless told the audience that he was a… Little Saint. No one expected this low-key expert to be a Little Saint.
With a slash, a head shot up into the sky while blood spilled all over the ground.
The Abyss expert put the scythe on his shoulder, held the bitten meat skewer in his hand, and sneered. “I don’t have much time to wait for you.” After that, he threw the skewer on the ground, stomped on it with his foot, and gave it a twist.
The body of the North Cloud Sea expert fell to the ground with a thud.
“He’s killed just like that?!”
“It seems a bit… cruel… The experts of the Abyss are indeed murderous…”
“It’s a pity that the meat skewer is wasted! It’s a shame to waste food!”
The audience was in an uproar. The North Cloud Sea expert was killed with just one move. It was the first killing so far in the team matches. In the match between Bu Fang and the Blackwind Continent expert, although he used an Explosive Meatball, he had only wounded his opponent. This Abyss expert, on the other hand, didn’t hesitate to kill and had cut off the head of his opponent with just one slash.
Commander Mo Yuan narrowed his eyes as a cold smile brushed his lips. ‘Yes… This is more like it. Matches with no blood or death are just boring!’
The other North Cloud Sea contestants froze. After a while, they all roared angrily. The death of a teammate, for them, was a huge blow. Their eyes turned red with rage, and some growled in suppressed voices.
“A bunch of rubbish. I alone can kill all of you!” The Abyss expert laughed coldly. His arrogant attitude made many people gasp. Carrying the scythe on his shoulder, he stepped out from the arena, while another Abyss expert, who was also clad in a blood-colored robe, stepped into it.
An expert rushed out from among the North Cloud Sea contestants with the North Cloud Sea’s Will of the Great Path swirling over his head. “How dare you kill my brother? The Abyss will pay for this!” He growled furiously, his eyes bloodshot. The next moment, a powerful aura exploded out from him and turned into layers of waves, surging fiercely toward his opponent, while the Will of the Great Path fused with these waves and filled them with destructive power!
The Abyss expert’s face beneath his blood-colored robe flashed a sneer of disdain, his black lips parted. The next moment, his robe exploded, and his body turned into a bloody beam of light, shooting straight into the waves that were coming toward him. With a boom, the waves with the Will of Great Path were knocked away by him.
“If this trick is used by a Little Saint, I might have been afraid. However, you are just a half-step Saint… A piece of rubbish.”
A bloody beam of light appeared in front of the North Cloud Sea half-step Saint, and the next moment, two scythes were placed around his neck. With a slash, a stream of blood shot up into the air. A few seconds later, a head fell from the sky.
Another half-step Saint from the North Cloud Sea was killed. His body collapsed on the ground with a thud that exploded like a drum in everyone’s ears.
The contestants from the Abyss were indeed ruthless!
Everyone outside the arena fell silent. This Abyss contestant was another Little Saint, which showed that the Abyss had come prepared.
Two of the North Cloud Sea experts had died in a row. A sad atmosphere enveloped the remaining contestants. Suddenly, a roar rang out as their strongest expert rushed into the arena, and then his energy began to boil. In the shocked eyes of the audience, he chose this moment to forcibly break through a higher realm. He was a peak half-step Saint, and he originally planned to break through and become a Little Saint during the tournament. However, he didn’t expect that two of his teammates would be dead before he could do that.
The Abyss expert in the arena stuck out his tongue and licked the blood on his scythes. With a cold face, he slowly turned and left the arena.
The next moment, another figure in a blood-colored robe jumped out from among the Abyss contestants, raised a black pike, and threw it out with all his might. Accompanied by a sonic boom, the pike hit the North Cloud Sea expert in an instant.
With a bang, the pike bounced back, but the Abyss expert quickly grabbed it with a hand and thrust it out again, piercing the body of the half-step Saint who was making a breakthrough.
Apparently, this contestant from the Abyss was also a Little Saint.
“Damn Abyss…” The North Cloud Sea expert’s eyes went wide in disbelief as he made an attack and knocked his opponent back.
The Abyss expert coughed up a mouthful of blood, but as he flew back, he threw out the pike in his hand, which pierced the North Cloud Sea half-step Saint’s head and nailed him to the ground.
Blood poured from the half-step Saint’s head.
The Abyss expert landed in the arena with a boom. His blood-colored robe had been torn, revealing the scars on his body. He wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand and said, “Bah… A piece of rubbish.” With a disdainful sneer on his face, he went to the body and pulled out his pike.
The audience fell into silence, and some even forgot to eat the meat skewers in their hands. The brutality of the Abyss experts shocked them all, and it was then that they realized that the Netherworld’s Tournament of the Great Path was not just a game.
Holding the bloody pike, the Abyss expert sneered and said, “Our chief has said that what happens to the rubbish from the North Cloud Sea is what will happen to the reptiles from the Immortal Cooking Realm. Don’t let us meet you in the arena, or else we will show you what death is. You will all die!” After that, he turned and stepped out of the arena.
The audience was in an uproar again. They didn’t expect the Abyss to target the Immortal Cooking Realm.
“Confronted by such a murderous team, the Immortal Cooking Realm is finished for sure this time…”
“Yeah. I can’t believe they have three Little Saints.”
“The Abyss is surprisingly strong. How can the Immortal Cooking Realm stand up against such an opponent? I think even that amazing chef couldn’t do anything about it…”
“It seems that I have to eat more meat skewers before the Immortal Cooking Realm meets the Abyss in the arena. Otherwise, I’ll never be able to taste it again…”
Behind the stall, Bu Fang’s hand paused for a moment. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up in the direction of the arena. He felt a cold killing intent coming toward him from there.
He heard every word of the Abyss expert’s threat.
‘Law enforcers from the Abyss? It looks like I didn’t give them enough explosion,’ Bu Fang thought seriously, his face expressionless.
