‘Oh? That look in the eyes and the form of address…’
Bu Fang paused slightly as he glanced at the Divine Emperor and Lord Dog. This man and the dog seemed to… know each other. Could there be some kind of secret relationship between the Divine Emperor and Lord Dog?
Bu Fang’s eyes flashed, and suddenly, he was a little curious.
Foxy was lying in Bu Fang’s arms. At this moment, she had recovered much of her energy. She had the Heavengod’s blood in her, so her ability to recover was very strong. It only took a little while for her to become lively again.
With wagging and flashing nine tails, she fixed her eyes on the Divine Emperor and dashed forward, jumping onto his shoulder. Her tails kept wagging and slapping at the emperor’s face.
The Divine Emperor chuckled. Stroking Foxy’s head, he said, “It’s good that you little thing still remembers Xia Yuhe from the Heavengod’s lakeside…”
Lord Dog and Foxy were actually… so familiar with the Divine Emperor?
The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched involuntarily.
All the while, Bu Fang had thought that he was the one who had done the best among them. Now, it seemed that he was still too young and naive. Evidently, Foxy and Lord Dog had done much better than him. They even knew the supreme leader of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty, and it seemed that their relationship was very good. Such a background was much better than his.
The Divine Emperor rubbed Foxy’s head with a faint affection in his eyes.
That stunned Gold Armor and the Crown Prince, who were standing behind him. What surprised Gold Armor was that the Divine Emperor had not shown such a smile for many years.
The Crown Prince, on the other hand, was stunned to find out that the Divine Emperor could actually be so friendly. By just standing there, the majestic Divine Emperor had already given him extremely dreadful pressure.
“This old man was dying in the relics. Foxy found him, then I made a move and saved him…” Lord Dog stuck out his tongue as if he was still savoring the Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs’ taste. Of course, he was explaining the relationship between him and the Divine Emperor.
“Yes. Essentially, Foxy saved my life…” the Divine Emperor said with a smile.
Bu Fang paused, and the surrounding people also froze in place.
Didn’t the Divine Emperor stay in seclusion all the time? How did he end up in the ancient Heavengod’s relics? Besides, he was dying? In the whole Chaotic Universe, who—except Heavengods—could almost kill the Divine Emperor?
A puzzled look came into Gold Armor’s eyes. As the Divine Emperor’s personal guard, he knew very well about the emperor’s terror.
Could it be that the Divine Emperor’s great trial had descended, which had left him dying in the relics? That was possible.
Great trials at the Divine Emperor’s level were extremely dreadful, and every great trial was a threat to life. That was also the reason why many people knew that the Divine Emperor would not live for too much longer.
However… Why didn’t they sense the emergence of a Heaven and Earth Great Trial?!
“It was because I saved this old man that my tracks in the relics were exposed, and then I was forced to run with Foxy. If I hadn’t found the Heavengod’s blood and this leg bone, I would have lost all of my reputation,” Lord Dog, lying on the ground after eating, said in a languid voice.
“It was me who told you the location of the Heavengod’s relics. This is to thank you for saving my life,” said the Divine Emperor. “I, Xia Yuhe, had ruled over the Chaotic Universe for so many years… But it never occurred to me that, in the end, I would be saved by a dog and a fox.” The Divine Emperor shook his head. He didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
He was right. Even though Lord Dog was holding the Heavenggod’s bone, he was still too weak in the face of the Divine Emperor. The strength of this old man before Bu Fang was stronger than anyone he had ever seen before.
“Your Majesty…” Gold Armor’s eyes showed concern. He actually had no idea when the Divine Emperor entered the ancient Heavengod’s relics, and most importantly, he didn’t know that the Divine Emperor was gravely wounded!
He was really not qualified to be a personal guard. As a personal guard, he could even sacrifice his life for the Divine Emperor when necessary. This was their duty as the imperial guards! Now, however, he had seriously neglected his duty.
“I don’t blame you. This matter was unexpected to me… The end of my life is near, so I went to the Heavengod’s burial place, thinking of finding my last chance to break through to the Heavengod realm. Unfortunately… Instead of finding the chance, I was wounded by the seal there… However, what severely wounded me was not the Heavengod’s seal, but… a strange creature!”
The Divine Emperor narrowed his eyes as he spoke the last sentence, while a terrible aura spread from his body.
“That creature is very strange… It can duplicate abilities and devour divine senses… Most importantly, it breeds extremely fast and grows up rapidly!”
The Divine Emperor took a deep breath. He was almost killed by that creature. However, he was the Divine Emperor after all, so the creature was seriously injured by him before fleeing.
In any case, that thing was still a threat. He couldn’t believe that an unknown and terrifying creature actually existed within the boundaries of the divine dynasty. If it were allowed to breed…it would be a disaster.
The Divine Emperor frowned, while Bu Fang and Lord Dog exchanged a glance.
Lord Dog didn’t know that the Divine Emperor was gravely wounded by that creature. Back then, the reason that he and Bu Fang were separated was because of that terrifying creature…
Could it be that… that creature was also teleported to the Xiayi Divine Dynasty?!
Bu Fang took a deep breath, and a dark cloud suddenly hung over his heart. That creature could actually severely wound the Divine Emperor? How terrible it was?!
“I will order this creature to be captured… I will not allow such uncertainty to exist in the boundary of my Xiayi Divine Dynasty,” the Divine Emperor said, stroking Foxy’s head.
Then, he turned and looked curiously at Bu Fang. “You are the chef who inherited Mu Hongzi’s Divine Chef Temple… You’re a bit like him in character. Although you have just inherited the Temple, you already dared to go all out with the Mo Family.”
In the Divine Emperor’s eyes, Bu Fang was bursting with golden light, which seemed to turn into a towering column. That was actually fortune, which could only be seen by the Divine Emperor of a state.
Even he, as a Divine Emperor, was shocked by Bu Fang’s fortune. That was also why he asked the Crown Prince to be a waiter in Bu Fang’s restaurant.
Fortune could be passed around. The moment the Crown Prince agreed to honor his word, his fortune column grew larger. That strengthened the Divine Emperor’s will to be friendly with Bu Fang. Even Mu Hongzi’s fortune column was not as strong as that of the chef before him.
The Divine Emperor was, after all, the ruler of a dynasty, and he had to attend to numerous affairs. Because he had stayed in seclusion for too long, everything in the palace had been thrown into a mess by the Imperial Concubine. Now that he had returned, he naturally needed to reorganize everything.
So, after talking to Bu Fang and the others for a while, he left with Gold Armor and the others.
The Crown Prince followed after the Divine Emperor. Of course, he had confirmed with Bu Fang that he would go to the restaurant tomorrow and willingly be a waiter.
Bu Fang did not comment on that. The Crown Prince’s life now belonged to him, so it didn’t matter if he was willing or not.
That was the end of the storm.
The surrounding heads of the aristocratic families looked dumbfounded. After seeing off the Divine Emperor with great respect, the crowd broke out into an uproar. They knew that something big was about to happen in the capital.
Bu Fang was actually so close with the Divine Emperor… With that, the Divine Chef Temple’s status in the divine dynasty would surely soar, and no one would dare to offend it again.
As long as the Divine Emperor was still alive, the Divine Chef Temple would most likely suppress all the aristocratic families and reach a position that was higher than when Mu Hongzi was here!
The Temple’s building was destroyed, but it was the work of the Mo Family. Now, the Mo Family had fallen apart. Its head, Mo Pao, was killed by the dog with a bone. Of its two patriarchs, Black was dead, and White had fled. Even the Imperial Concubine was put in jail by the Divine Emperor.
The faction of the Mo Family, who had once ruled the capital, had completely collapsed at this moment! As for the Mo Family’s wealth, it was all given to the Divine Chef Temple. No one dared to occupy it, and no aristocratic family was stupid enough to offend the rising Divine Chef Temple… unless the Divine Emperor died. However, he was not going to die any time soon.
…
In the restaurant on the top floor of the Luo’s skyscraper, the door creaked as Bu Fang pushed it open. Foxy, lying on his shoulder, jumped to the floor and began hopping around as if she had returned to a familiar environment.
Lord Dog walked into the restaurant with elegant cat-like steps, his nose sniffing. “There is no place more comfortable than a familiar restaurant,” he said. After that, his butt twisted from side to side as he went under the Path-Understanding Tree, lay down, and fell asleep.
After roaming in the Heavengod’s relics for so long, Lord Dog felt physically and mentally exhausted. He had even lost a kilogram. He needed to catch up on his sleep and regain the weight he had lost.
Foxy, on the other hand, was hopping here and there. With the Heavengod’s blood flowing in her, she was full of energy now.
Nethery and Er Ha looked at Foxy and Lord Dog with strange faces.
Er Ha was filled with sorrow. He regretted that he had not followed Lord Dog. Even Foxy, the silly little fox, had become a God by following Lord Dog. On the other hand, he, the handsome Nether King who was the idol of millions of girls, had not even touched the threshold of the Demigod Realm.
This was simply… unacceptable! Except for eating spicy strips, following Bu Fang provided not even a little bit of help in his cultivation base!
‘How I regret it! I should have hugged Lord Dog’s legs!’
As if sensing Er Ha’s sad eyes, Bu Fang just twitched the corner of his mouth coldly. Then, he turned and stepped into the kitchen. After a great battle, the best thing to do was cook delicious food and share it with everyone.
Everything in the restaurant was as usual. No one dared to offend it now. In fact, everyone couldn’t wait to curry favor with it. The Luo Family also no longer stopped Luo Sanniang from coming to Bu Fang. On the other hand, Hu Lu, King Pingyang’s son, was greatly provoked by the battle, and he decided to cultivate in seclusion. He even vowed that he would not come out of seclusion until he became a God.
After the various major aristocratic families got the news, they all gathered outside the restaurant, waiting in line. This restaurant was now protected by the Divine Emperor, so it would not be wrong to curry favor with it!
As the restaurant opened by the Lord of the Divine Chef Temple, together with the fact that it was protected by the Divine Emperor… which Earth Divine Chef’s restaurant could compare with it? Although it had not opened yet, the business of all the surrounding Earth Divine Chefs had been snatched by it.
Inside the kitchen, Bu Fang washed the wok and processed the food ingredients. Lord Dog had returned, so naturally, he had to cook a delicious meal to celebrate. As for what dishes to cook, he had already decided.
He took out food ingredients from the System’s storage space. Of course, he also took out many other ingredients from the Heaven and Earth Farmland. He washed away the dirt, cleaned them, and placed them on the stove.
The Luan bird’s eggs, fat oysters, and some simple food ingredients were neatly stacked to the side. Then, he placed a spirit fruit dug out from the Farmland on the stove. It was not an ordinary spirit fruit, and it was filled with spirit energy. Bu Fang peeled off its skin, revealed its flesh, and crushed it.
While Bu Fang was preparing to cook a delicious meal, the Divine Emperor had returned to the imperial palace.
The night had passed, and the sky was beginning to turn bright. After hundreds of years, the morning session of the court was once again convened in the imperial palace…
The Divine Emperor sat on his throne, while the various major aristocratic families and subjects of the divine dynasty came bowing before him.
