If he could curse, the faceless man would curse Bu Fang a thousand times. He could not accept this. His fingers were almost touching the dish when Bu Fang appeared out of nowhere and took it away. Did he think this was funny?

The faceless man had withstood the great pressure to get this close. At this moment, he felt as if all the blood in him was flowing backward. He staggered, then the mighty force knocked him back and threw him to the distance.

Bu Fang, holding the dish, was slightly taken aback. Looking at the faceless man, who was flying backward away from the coffin, he smacked his lips. “I’m just going to take a look… and I’ll return it to you when I’m done. Why are you so impatient?”

He shook his head and rested his gaze on the dish. From a distance, he could not make out what the dish on the coffin was. Now that he was so close, he could finally have a clear look at it. It was a simple bowl of Egg-Fried Rice.

Bu Fang stared in shock. Was Egg-Fried Rice the Queen of Curses’ favorite dish? If not, why would she place a bowl of Egg-Fried Rice on her coffin?

It was an unremarkable dish, without bursting spiritual energy or beautiful light. The rice was the most common rice anyone could find, and so were the eggs. Even the Egg-fried Rice Bu Fang cooked in the Light Wind Empire was flashier than it. It was as if the dish had returned to simplicity.

Bu Fang furrowed his brows slightly. He knew very well that the Egg-Fried Rice on the Queen of Curses’ coffin must be an unusual dish. He squinted at it. Then, with a thought in his mind, a spoon appeared in his hand. He wanted to taste the rice.

Everyone was in awe. When did Bu Fang appear there? Why was he there? Did he not feel the terrible pressure between heaven and earth?

In the distance, the faceless man crawled out of the ruins and seemed to be roaring. The blood that covered him had dried up and was falling off his skin. He had fully recovered.

Lord Dog and Er Ha could not help but chuckle. Bu Fang was a chef. Now that there was a dish in front of him, how could he not take it away and give it a taste? They felt sorry for the faceless man… for just one second.

Standing on the Netherworld Ship, Nethery rested her eyes on Bu Fang with a faint smile on her face. She was supporting the array. All kinds of energies were flowing inside it, and the coffin seemed to have become the center of heaven and earth at this moment.

Bu Fang looked calm. He had eaten more than a thousand bowls of Egg-Fried Rice, and he would like to know if there was anything special about this one on the coffin. However, as he was about to put his spoon into the rice, he shuddered. He felt a pair of eyes staring at him.

He turned to the small gap between the coffin and its lid. Someone seemed to be gazing at him from the darkness beyond the opening. Stone-faced, he put the bowl of Egg-Fried Rice back on the coffin. “I was just smelling it…” he said. After putting it back in its original place, he felt the piercing gaze disappear.

In the distance, the faceless man let out a soundless roar and made a sweeping gesture with his arm. The power of Great Sins gathered in front of him, materialized into a large palm, and then slapped toward the coffin.

Nethery’s face turned cold as she continued to support the array. A rumbling sound echoed out as the palm hit the array, causing it to shake violently. Nethery trembled as well. However, the array was not broken. The faceless man’s blow only shaken it.

Still, he kept attacking it as if he had gone mad, causing it to shake even more violently. It was as if he was hitting a turtle shell with a large hammer.

Everyone could clearly sense that this time, the faceless man’s target was no longer the dish, but… Bu Fang. Apparently, Bu Fang had succeeded in attracting his hatred.

Frowning, Nethery flipped her palm. The terrible curse power rose into the sky and turned into a mandala flower, twisting and rotating. The next moment, the gap on the coffin widened further, and the pressure and aura that filled the air grew stronger.

At this moment, Sloth Great Soul Overlord struck out, following the faceless man’s will. A palm descended from the sky and smashed the array that Nethery was supporting. It rumbled, and the whole Void City was shaking violently as if it was on the verge of collapsing, while countless fine lines appeared and spread across the ground.

The attacks of the two perfected Chaotic Saints put a lot of pressure on Nethery. In fact, she could hardly hold on any longer. As the grumpy faceless man kept hitting the array with his palm, which was already covered in blood, Nethery came to the coffin’s side, panting and looking at Bu Fang.

“Bu Fang… I’m hungry,” she said, blinking at him.

Bu Fang was slightly taken aback, but then he nodded. With a thought in his mind, the Black Turtle Constellation Wok, the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, and the other God of Cooking Sets emerged in front of him. He began to cook in midair.

Flames roared in the stove, and the ladle clanged with the wok. Before long, shafts of golden light thrust into the sky and an aura exploded out of the wok. Nethery’s favorite dish, Dragon Blood Rice, was ready to serve.

Nethery took the bowl of rice, sat cross-legged down on the Netherworld Ship, and began to enjoy it. Meanwhile, Sloth Great Soul Overlord and the faceless man continued to attack the array from outside.

The experts of Void City exchanged glances as they watched. Many people were filled with grief, thinking that Nethery could not hold on anymore, but they also felt strange when they saw her enjoy the bowl of rice with such a calm attitude.

Nethery ate very quickly. Soon, the bowl was empty, and she was beaming with energy once again. “I’ve remembered this taste,” she murmured. After that, she turned to Bu Fang, lifted her hand, and unleashed a wave of curse power.

Suddenly, Bu Fang felt a great force struck him, which pushed him away from the coffin and made him land on the ground in front of the palace.

Nethery stood up and came to the front of the Netherworld Ship, her elegant black dress waving in the wind. There, she removed her crown, and her black hair that was tied up in a bun spread and streamed down behind her like a waterfall. A few strands of hair fell beside her cheeks, making her beautiful and cold face look even colder.

BOOM!

The Stairway of Star split further, and the throne floated up into the air. Nethery left the ship and sat down on it. The moment she put herself on the throne, a terrible will seemed to wake up. At the same time, colors emerged and flashed in the sky, clouds rolled over and churned, and a strong wind screamed.

Suddenly, a huge white arm thrust out from the crack on the Stairway of Star, glowing gently like jade. As soon as it emerged, it went straight to meet the palms struck out by the faceless man and Sloth Great Soul Overlord.

In the sky, Sloth Great Soul Overlord’s face fell. He immediately pulled his hand back, but it was too late. The moment the white hand collided with his palm, it burst apart! Even the faceless man’s arm had cracked, and he took a few steps back in succession!

“The Queen of Curses?!” Sloth Great Soul Overlord, hiding in the rift, cried out in shock and fear. The next moment, he scooped up the three Great Soul Overlords and Soul, pulled them into the rift, and fled without hesitation.

As for the other Soul Demons… They were all crushed by the jade-like palm! Then, countless strands of curse power tangled the true forms of these Soul Demons, causing them to melt and completely disappear!

The great army of Soul Demons was gone, and the faceless man was the last one remaining. He lowered his arm, and his empty face seemed to be staring at Nethery, who was sitting on the throne with her head bowed slightly like a mighty queen from beyond the heavens.

After staring at her for a long time, the faceless man turned to Bu Fang, who was standing in midair over the palace. His invisible gaze that was filled with great enmity made Bu Fang twitch the corner of his mouth.

‘Do you have to look at me as if I’ve done something terrible? I’ve only taken a dish away from you…’ Bu Fang thought to himself.

“When… I… return… All chefs… must die!”

A hoarse, jarring voice that sounded like the grinding of a knife shook the whole Void City, hurting the ears of those who heard it. Then, the faceless man turned, ripped the void, and left. The mighty pressure that filled the air instantly disappeared.

Nethery just sat unmoving on her throne. It seemed that even she could do nothing to the faceless man’s departure.

The split on the Stairway of Star began to heal. The coffin slowly fell, and the bowl of fried rice on it still gave off wisps of hot steam. Bu Fang was not sure if it was only an illusion, but he felt the pair of eyes in the coffin still staring at him as if it was warning him.

‘Why?! It’s just a bowl of Egg-Fried Rice!’ Bu Fang was speechless.

As the crack continued to close up, the coffin fell into it. Then, to everyone’s horror, Nethery, sitting on the throne, also plunged into the stairway. All the people in Void City were shocked as they watched her fall and eventually disappear.

Bu Fang, Lord Dog, and Er Ha were startled. Their figures flashed and appeared on the stairway, but Nethery was nowhere to be found. The top of the stairway was empty. The throne, as well as Nethery, had disappeared. The only thing that was left was the Netherworld Ship, which floated in midair and was emanating a powerful aura.

“Where is Nethery?” Er Ha asked with an exaggerated expression. “Did the Queen of Curses pull her into the coffin to accompany her?”

Both Lord Dog and Bu Fang frowned. After thinking for a moment, Bu Fang shook his hand and produced the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife. A dragon roar echoed out and shook the sky as he hacked the stairway with the knife, but it failed to even make a dent.

“This Stairway of Star is where the Queen of Curses is buried. You can’t destroy it with brute force,” Lord Dog said. When he patted the hard floor with his paw, he could feel the terrible power in it.

They left the stairway. Nethery was the successor of Void City, so it was unlikely that the Queen of Curses would hurt her.

“Don’t worry. She is going to receive the Queen’s inheritance in the Stairway of Star,” Cursey said excitedly. No one knew better than her what Nethery could gain after going down into the stairway. The benefits made her envious and jealous. Although she was the clone of the Queen’s will, she was never treated like that.

The ground of Void City was covered with the bodies of Soul Demons and human experts. The battle was finally over, and the exiles were all escorted back to District D. Everything seemed to have returned to normal, but the people’s hearts were still shrouded in gloom. The battle was over, but the real crisis was creeping closer and closer.

Suddenly, an explosive rumble echoed out, and the whole Void City trembled. Everyone’s pupils shrank, and their faces turned pale. It was as if an earthquake had struck the city.

Under Void City, the faceless man could be seen floating in front of the inverted cone-shaped mountain. He raised his arm. At the gesture, the seven Spears of the Great Sins shot forward and punched into the base of the city. A rumbling sound rang out, and the mountain began to crumble.

As gravel fell and plunged into the nothingness of the universe, a powerful suction erupted from the mountain and blew it into two. Then, from the center where it was broken, half of a body emerged.

Strands of the power of Great Sins, thousands of them, shrouded the body, which was emanating a terrifying aura that was powerful enough to suppress the universe and suffocate anyone who sensed it. However, it was tangled by countless cold chains made of the curse power.

The next moment, the seven Spears of Great Sins struck those chains, shattering them in an instant and freeing the body. The faceless man caught it, then ripped open the void and returned to the Soul Demon Universe.
