Gourmet of Another World

They returned to the distinguished guest tower of the Divine Chef Temple. Bu Fang did not look for Master Cheng immediately. Even though the old man conspired to kill him, he was not too concerned. In his opinion, all schemes were useless in the face of absolute power.

Of course, another reason was that he could not wait to see Flowery.

He went back to his luxury room. After bidding farewell to Bu Fang, Luo Sanniang left with a dark face. Most likely, she was going to settle the scores with Master Cheng.

Bu Fang closed the door. With a thought, he went into the Heaven and Earth Farmland. When he was at King Pingyang’s residence, he had sent Flowery into the farmland. That was why the young master could not find her.

He knew that when he did this, it would cause violent fluctuations of the Will of the Great Path, which was very obvious, so he used the explosion to cover it up. Although his plan was nearly exposed by Master Cheng, it all went well in the end.

A gentle breeze was blowing in the farmland. The air was filled with a rich aroma of fruits. It was the time of harvest in the farmland.

Bu Fang landed on the soft green grass, welcomed by the scent of grass, fruits, and earth. He clasped his hands behind his back and took a deep breath.

Flowery had already turned into a young girl with a curvy figure. She was sitting on Niu Hansan’s wooden chair in front of the wooden hut, gnawing at a spirit fruit. Niu Hansan was sitting beside her, smiling and holding a basket full of spirit fruits. When he saw Bu Fang, he put down the basket and strode over to welcome him.

“Aye, Owner Bu, what brought you here?” Niu Hansan was all smiling. He had kept the farmland in good order, and he wished Bu Fang would come every day.

Bu Fang nodded and talked to him for a while, then came beside Flowery impatiently and glanced at her with sharp eyes.

“Are you all right?” he asked.

Flowery shoved a fruit as large as her fist into her mouth. With a satisfied look on her face, she looked at Bu Fang, grinned, and shook her head. “I’m fine…”

“How did you get caught?” Bu Fang asked what he wanted to know most.

Flowery shoved another fruit into her mouth. “We met another cosmic monster in the turbulence…and then we were scattered. When I rushed out of the tunnel, I was surrounded and beaten by many people!” she said innocently. In fact, she did not know what had happened.

“Another cosmic monster? Scattered? Did you mean… Lord Dog and Nethery were also separated?” Bu Fang frowned. He felt that things were getting a little serious. He had thought that after finding Flowery, he would learn the whereabouts of Lord Dog.

‘What is that cosmic monster…’ Bu Fang took a deep breath. He thought there was only one monster, but it seemed there were two…

“I think so… With Lord Dog’s strength, he should be safe. As for Sister Nethery, I’m not sure…” Flowery said. Her mood became somewhat depressed.

It was really a bad start. They had barely left the Netherworld when they were confronted with such difficulties. All this was because of that cosmic monster. Bu Fang furrowed his brows as his eyes grew sharper. ‘Surely that monster is not dead. Even my Perishing Pot cannot kill that thing…’

“Alright… You have a good rest. You can choose to stay here or go out with me.” Bu Fang looked at Flowery and let her choose. After all, she had been caught by the young master, and her Seven-colored Sky Devouring Python aura could not be concealed. Once she went out, she might expose her whereabouts. However, Bu Fang was not too worried. He was strong enough to protect her now.

“I want to go out! I don’t want to stay here!” Flowery said hastily.

Niu Hansan burst into tears. ‘Can’t all these spirit fruits make you stay here?’

Bu Fang respected Flowery’s decision, but to avoid unnecessary trouble, he asked her to maintain her human form most of the time when she was outside.

Of course, Flowery would not object to that. She nodded hurriedly.

Afterward, Bu Fang spent some time recuperating in the farmland. He sat cross-legged under the Nine Revolution Great Path Tea Tree, refreshing his spirit by closing his eyes. His divine sense gradually grew more solid under the special essence of the tea tree.

The Immortal Tree swayed beside him, its leaves rustling softly. Perched on its crown, the Senseless Lotus gleamed faintly.

Bu Fang had just gone through a battle, and he needed to stabilize his cultivation base. Under the nourishment of the Immortal Tree and the tea tree, his comprehension of the Law became deeper and deeper.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and left the farmland. He did not bring Flowery with him. He planned to make her the waitress in the restaurant, and he would only bring her out when the restaurant opened.

Back to the luxury room, Bu Fang stretched his back and rose to his feet. He took a bath, then went straight to sleep.

The next day, he left the room. As he walked between the distinguished guest towers, many people recognized him. Everyone looked respectfully at him, no matter if they were Gods or Demigods, Spirit Divine Chefs or Earth Divine Chefs.

The result of his battle yesterday had already spread throughout the whole Divine Dynasty. Most of the people in the capital now knew that he was comprehending the Law of Transmigration, the supreme Law of the Universe, and that he had defeated the young master of King Pingyang. Some even greeted him passionately when they saw him. All in all, the situation left Bu Fang slightly uncomfortable.

He did not go to the Divine Chef Temple. Instead, he left the distinguished guest towers and planned to have a look around the capital.

Luo Sanniang did not come to him today, but he did not mind. After all, she was the steward of the Divine Chef Temple, and she must have many things to handle.

When he was outside, he called a chariot pulled by a dragon horse and boarded it. As the driver cracked his whip, the chariot moved slowly. It was slow, much slower than Luo Sanniang’s warship. It made Bu Fang miss the luxury ride. However, there was an advantage of riding in a chariot. He could admire the scenery in the capital from a close distance.

The driver did not dare to breathe too loudly. Bu Fang was an existence that came out of the Divine Chef Temple’s distinguished guest tower, a man he could not afford to offend. So he just focused on driving the chariot.

Bu Fang was more than happy to enjoy the quietness.

Before too long, the chariot came to Luo Sanniang’s property, the commercial skyscraper. Bu Fang stepped out of it and paid the driver some source stones. In the Divine Dynasty, source stones were the only and universal currency. After his restaurant opened, he would accept source stones as the only currency as well.

Source stones were an important cultivating resource. In the Divine Dynasty, all aristocratic families owned many properties so that they could earn source stones and have a steady supply of cultivating resources.

Bu Fang stepped into the skyscraper. It was bustling with activities inside, with all kinds of businesses in every story. Among them were various restaurants selling different delicacies.

Since he was free at the moment, Bu Fang visited these restaurants one by one. He was loaded with source stones now. The Divine Chef Temple was very generous, and it was never stingy about giving its Divine Chefs source stones.

The standard of the chefs in these restaurants was not low. Most of them were actually Earth Divine Chefs. In fact, no one would dare to open a restaurant in such a busy commercial district without the standard of an Earth Divine Chef.

Bu Fang visited various restaurants and tasted their delicacies. Each Earth Divine Chef had developed a unique style of cooking, and the dishes cooked by them were at the peak of perfection. He could not find any problem with the taste.

At the level of an Earth Divine Chef, cooking was more than what the eye could see. Instead, the focus should be on the food ingredients, as well as the emotions contained in the dishes. The higher the cooking skill, the more important the emotion contained in the dishes was because it could decide the quality of the dish.

Bu Fang picked up a braised pork ball coated in brown sauce with his chopsticks, shoved it into his mouth, and took a bite out of it. The sauce spilled out of it as the meat filled his mouth. The meat was obviously not an ordinary one, and it mixed well with the other ingredients. If he had to find a flaw, that would probably be the knife technique. In his opinion, it was slightly weaker.

The table in front of him was full of food. As a good chef, he must learn from everyone and not be too proud of himself. There were good things he could learn even in the dishes cooked by an ordinary chef.

At this moment, Luo Sanniang walked toward him from a distance, wearing a pair of long red boots. It was not difficult for her to find out where Bu Fang was. When she was told that he was in her commercial skyscraper, she came to him immediately.

When she saw that he was enjoying all the delicious food, she did not know whether to cry or laugh. “Why are you still in the mood for a big meal here… That old man Cheng had run away,” Luo Sanniang said as she sat across the table.

Bu Fang put another pork ball into his mouth and chewed. “Hmm? He ran away?” That gave him pause.

“That old man has friends. He managed to bribe his way out of the Divine Chef Temple’s jail and fled in the middle of the night. In any case… there’s no place for him in the capital now. Of course, you have to be careful. He’s a narrow-minded man, so he might come to you for revenge. After all… you took everything that belonged to him.”

Luo Sanniang took a deep breath, picked up a pork ball with chopsticks, and shoved it into her mouth.

“I’ve taken those things with my own strength. If he thinks he’s stronger than me, he’s welcome to come to me for revenge,” Bu Fang said lightly. After that, he put down his chopsticks.

Luo Sanniang smiled. He was right. In the Divine Chef Temple, one had to fight for resources and status with his own strength.

Suddenly, she froze, for she sensed Bu Fang’s serious gaze. It made her heart beat faster and faster. ‘Why is he looking at me like that? Is he…’

“Steward Luo, I’ve something to trouble you,” Bu Fang said solemnly after thinking for a moment.

“What is it?” Luo Sanniang was a little disappointed.

“I need you to help me find someone…” Bu Fang told her about Lord Dog and Nethery. She had proven to be a trustworthy person.

“No problem. You can count on me in this matter,” Luo Sanniang said confidently, slapping her chest with a hand. “By the way, when is your restaurant opening? Are you sure you don’t want me to help you find a professional renovation team?” She squinted doubtfully at Bu Fang.

“It will open tomorrow,” said Bu Fang.

Tomorrow?

Luo Sanniang paused, and the doubt in her eyes grew stronger. She wondered if the restaurant could really open tomorrow since she never saw Bu Fang working on the renovation. The store was in an excellent location, and if Bu Fang were to waste it, she would feel pain.

Suddenly, she seemed to recall something. Cupping her chin with one hand and staring at Bu Fang, she said, “There’s one more thing. What you did yesterday has spread, and many people came to me, asking me to introduce you to them… Some of them are princes, heirs of aristocratic families, and a few charming bitches of the aristocratic families… Do you want to meet them?”

Bu Fang swallowed the last bit of pork in his mouth, wiped his lips with a clean white handkerchief, then gave Luo Sanniang an expressionless glance.

“No. Reject them all for me.”
