Chapter 1231 You Won“t Let Me Follow Bu Fang?

“So, he’s the Great Demon King who shook the entire Immortal Cooking Realm? I’ve wanted to see him for a long time!”A hearty but extremely proud voice rang out. Then, several figures quickly walked in from the door. There were four of them altogether. The first three were dressed in magnificent chef robes trimmed with golden threads, making them look extremely luxurious, and behind them came a well-behaved young man, who pursed his mouth and looked hopefully into the hall.

Bu Fang naturally heard that, and the arrogance in the voice shocked him slightly. ‘Are all young people so arrogant nowadays?’

He turned his head and saw the four people.

Realm Lord Di Tai looked slightly embarrassed. He gave a dry smile with an unhappy look in his eyes. On the other side, the embarrassed expressions on Meng Qi and City Lord Zou’s faces were more obvious.

As soon as the four stepped into the hall, their eyes were fixed on Bu Fang.

Bu Fang’s appearance was close to their age, and there was nothing unusual about it, but his status was something that they couldn’t take lightly.

The Great Demon King.

He was the Great Demon King who shook the whole Immortal Cooking Realm, and his story spread like myths among restaurant-goers.

However, that was six months ago. Great changes had already taken place in the Immortal Cooking Realm today. The miracles once created by the Great Demon King could now be achieved by many geniuses. In only half a year, many geniuses in the realm had gone from First Grade Immortal Chefs to Third Grade Immortal Chefs, and the Great Demon King’s once-proud records had already been trampled by them.

As for the story of the Great Demon King forcing thousands of Nether Prison enemies back by himself, they didn’t care about it. They just regarded it as a myth. When a hero’s name gets around, his deeds tend to be deified, and that was what happened to the Great Demon King. Perhaps, the Great Demon King in real life was not so special at all.

In fact, they had secretly visited the Great Demon King’s restaurant and found that he wasn’t involved in the cooking at all. He just sat in front of the restaurant every day, lazily basking in the sun. How could a man like this be the Great Demon King capable of forcing thousands of enemies back alone?

Zhu Yan squinted at Bu Fang. He was strangely excited. It wasn’t the excitement of seeing an idol, but the feeling that it was time to demystify a legend. He had recently made a breakthrough and become a Third Grade Immortal Chef, and his cultivation base was formidable as well, sitting at the level of Six-star True Immortal Realm. Among the younger generation in the whole Immortal Cooking Realm, his talent and cultivation base were considered rare.

Standing beside him were a man and a woman. The man, like him, was a son of an aristocratic family from the former fifth layer. His name was Fang Yu. As a genius of the Fang Family, the young man was also a Third Grade Immortal Chef and a Six-star True Immortal, just like Zhu Yan.

As for the woman, she was a genius junior from a great aristocratic family in the former fourth layer, the Mo Family. Her name was Mo Yan, and she was also a Third Grade Immortal Chef. However, she was only a Five-star True Immortal. Her cultivation base was slightly weaker than the others, but it was still not bad.

The last man was looked down upon by Zhu Yan and his two companions, but the fact that he was selected by Realm Lord Di Tai and the city lords proved that he was also an extraordinary genius. He was from the first layer, once the most backward place in the Immortal Cooking Realm. He didn’t come from an aristocratic family, and he wasn’t the apprentice of some famous immortal chef. He was just a commoner.

However, he had created a legend as a commoner. His cooking skill had not only reached the level of Third Grade Immortal Chef, but his cultivation base had also reached Six-star True Immortal Realm!

In the first layer of the Immortal Cooking Realm, he was called a genius. This man was Xuanyuan Xiahui.

Bu Fang was slightly surprised when he saw Xuanyuan Xiahui, and he nodded at him.

Xuanyuan Xiahui bit his lip. It never occurred to him that when he met Bu Fang again, it would be under such circumstances. However, he didn’t say anything. He knew very well about Bu Fang’s talent and genius, so he didn’t show his pride. He could not be proud in front of Bu Fang.

When he first met Bu Fang, the latter was not even an immortal chef and didn’t pay for his meal at his restaurant. Now, Bu Fang had already become an existence he needed to look up to, a formidable expert who could stand alone against a thousand Nether Prison experts.

He knew it was not a myth, but something that actually happened.

“Greetings, my lords.” Zhu Yan squared his shoulders with a confident smile on his lips. He first glanced at Bu Fang, then ignored him and turned to nod at Meng Qi.

The aristocratic families that used to be on the fifth layer were now on the third layer, so Meng Qi was the focus of his attention.

Realm Lord Di Tai and the others nodded.

“Zhu Yan, you will be the team leader for the Netherworld’s Tournament of the Great Path in Earth Prison. Owner Bu will go with you. If you encounter any difficulties, you can consult him,” said Meng Qi.

Zhu Yan raised his eyebrows when he heard that. Consult? Why did he need to consult anyone? With his talent, his goal in this tournament was to finish in the top ten. If he couldn’t even make it to the top ten, how could he face the folks in the Immortal Cooking Realm?

“Thanks for the reminder, my lord. I will definitely lead the team and make it into the top ten.” Although he thought nothing about what Meng Qi said, he still bowed respectfully to her.

After that, Zhu Yan turned to look at Bu Fang.

“This must be Owner Bu? Once the Great Demon King? Nice to meet you,” he said with a smile and then held out a hand to Bu Fang as if to shake hands.

Bu Fang saw an unconvinced look in Zhu Yan’s eyes, but he didn’t take it to heart. He knew that all young men were proud of themselves. He twitched the corner of his mouth, raised his hand, and was going to shake hands with Zhu Yan.

However, Zhu Yan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and the moment Bu Fang reached out a hand, he pulled his own hand back and turned to Mo Yan, who was standing at his side, smiling and saying something irrelevant to her.

Bu Fang’s raised hand froze on the spot. For a moment, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

“Young people these days are really grumpy.” He twitched his lips, withdrew his hand, and glanced at Zhu Yan. He was too lazy to say anything to this young man again.

The looks in the eyes of Meng Qi and the others changed instantly, and they furrowed their eyebrows. They were all a little dissatisfied with Zhu Yan’s behavior.

They knew how strong Bu Fang was, not to mention how terrifying his talent was. Although he was just a Third Grade Immortal Chef like Zhu Yan and the others, the dishes he cooked were no worse than those of Qilin Chefs!

These were the things that Bu Fang hid.

Zhu Yan and his friends of the younger generation were too arrogant.

Meng Qi wanted to scold them, but Realm Lord Di Tai stopped her and said, “He will face these things sooner or later. Let them work it out by themselves. It will backfire if you yell at them.”

Then, the realm lord turned his eyes to the stone-faced Bu Fang and prayed in silence for Zhu Yan. ‘You better don’t do stupid things because they will come back and bite you in the ass…’

“Well, now that you all know each other, I won’t waste time to introduce you. The tournament is held by Earth Prison and includes the geniuses from many small worlds around the Netherworld. This is the perfect opportunity for us to show not just the strength of the Immortal Cooking Realm, but also to let them understand our potential. This important task now falls on you,” said Realm Lord Di Tai.

Bu Fang was unmoved by such sensational remarks, but it was very effective for Zhu Yan and the few young people. They were so excited that they couldn’t help but clench their fists. The task of representing a realm’s honor seemed to have ignited the fire in these juniors’ hearts.

Bu Fang glanced at them and twitched the corner of his mouth. ‘They’re still too young…’

“Your team will be led by Zhu Yan. If you have anything you don’t understand or can’t solve, you can consult Owner Bu. You can go back and prepare now. You will set off for Earth Prison in the afternoon. We’ll see you off ourselves!”

No sooner had the realm lord finished than Zhu Yan and the others clenched their fists and roared excitedly.

Bu Fang rolled his eyes, clasped his hands behind his back, and walked out of the hall.

Xuanyuan Xiahui couldn’t fit in with Zhu Yan’s group, so he quickly followed Bu Fang and left as well.

In the eyes of Zhu Yan and others, Xuanyuan Xiahui was just a lowly commoner. They thought he was just lucky enough to have the opportunity to take part in this significant tournament with them. However, because he was recommended by Gongshu Baiguang, they couldn’t force him out of the team. Still, it didn’t stop them from isolating him.

There was nothing scarier than isolating a person in a group.

Yet, they didn’t expect that he would be shameless enough to cling onto the Great Demon King.

Bu Fang went back to the restaurant. He told Xixi that he would be away for some time, gave the little girl a few more Explosive Meatballs, then asked Nethery to follow him to Earth Prison. The curse in Nethery’s body was now at an important stage of being suppressed, and he didn’t dare to leave her alone in the restaurant.

Nethery naturally didn’t object to his invitation. She would go wherever he went, as long as she had delicious food to eat.

Flowery wanted to go with them. She felt bored being confined to the restaurant every day with nothing to do. But her suggestion was turned down by Bu Fang. She clung to Nethery, but Bu Fang gave her forehead a tap with his finger, making it swell slightly.

This angered Flowery, and she wanted to fight Bu Fang to the death. Of course, there was no duel in the end.

Bu Fang also took Foxy with him, who lay comfortably on his shoulder. In just half a year, the little fox had doubled in size. The food in the restaurant was just too good.

Later, they walked out of the restaurant and headed toward the square outside the Immortal Kitchen Pavilion.

Today’s first layer had become the administrative, economic, and commercial center of the Immortal Cooking Realm. Many places were expanded, including the Immortal Kitchen Pavilion. A vast square was constructed around it, which was the largest square in the entire realm.

When Bu Fang and Nethery arrived, Zhu Yan and the others had been waiting for a long time with their luggage.

Zhu Yan’s eyes narrowed when he saw them. “Senior Great Demon King, even though you’re our senior, you still have to abide by the rules, don’t you think so? We’re going to participate in a tournament, not on vacation. You can’t take others with you.”

He glanced at Nethery. With her gray-green hair, Nethery became more attractive and charming now. Her beautiful face was slightly pale, making her appear a little weak, and this kind of look could always stimulate men’s desire to protect her. On top of that, her curvy figure and straight legs were full of temptation.

Zhu Yan was amazed. Even Fang Yu and Mo Yan were attracted by Nethery’s beauty.

“Oh? I didn’t know there’s such a rule.” Bu Fang clasped his hands behind his back and gave Zhu Yan an indifferent look.

“I’m the team leader, and I’ve just set this rule. It’s to make sure that everyone will not be distracted during the tournament,” said Zhu Yan as his eyes kept sweeping across Nethery’s beautiful face.

In fact, he was beginning to regret it. To refuse such a stunning beauty in order to embarrass the Great Demon King was truly a huge loss.

“Your rules?” Bu Fang raised an eyebrow.

However, before he could speak again, Nethery’s cold face had already flashed with a fierce look.

‘This man won’t let me follow Bu Fang?’

She moved her long legs, her gray-green hair waving in the wind. As she moved, a faint fragrance filled the air.

Zhu Yan’s eyes turned blurry for a moment when he saw the breathtakingly beautiful woman appear in front of him.

Meng Qi and the others were heading toward the square from a distance when they saw Nethery standing in front of Zhu Yan. Their pupils constricted instantly.

“You won’t let me follow Bu Fang?” Nethery said in a cold voice as her dark eyes fixed on Zhu Yan.

The look in her eyes sent a shiver through Zhu Yan. “As the leader of the team, I have the right to…” His voice trailed off.

Staring at Nethery’s beautiful face from such a close distance, Zhu Yan felt he was suffocating. ‘This woman is truly stunning! Even City Lord Meng Qi is not as beautiful as her!’

He was deeply fascinated by her cold temperament as well. Even so, he refused to let her follow them. He was only halfway through what he wanted to say when his pupils suddenly constricted.

To his horror, Nethery’s eyes turned completely black in an instant, while veins appeared from the corners of her eyes and spread to her ears.

Realm Lord Di Tai’s mouth twitched as he watched.

‘If you don’t do stupid things, they won’t come back and bite you in the ass. But if you do, they most certainly will… Why doesn’t this young man understand?’

Boom!

Zhu Yan felt cold all over, unable to move. It was as if there was a strong wind blowing in his face. A cold hand clutched his neck and pressed him hard against the wall, causing the wall to crack with lines.

He struggled with a look of fear in his eyes.

“Now, are you going to let me go with Bu Fang or not?” Nethery asked coldly as she tightened her grip on Zhu Yan’s neck.

The corners of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched. Nethery had become very bad-tempered recently because of the curse’s outbreak…
