Gourmet of Another World-Chapter 1757 - Bu Fang Go and Get Help

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The palaces of the three Cursed Goddesses were actually located in three opposite corners of District A, forming a triangular shape. At this moment, countless men of the Cavalry of Death, who served Soul, had gathered outside Houtu’s palace.

Compared with Soul, Houtu’s weakness was her army. It was too weak, especially when facing an elite force like the Cavalry of Death. Although the Cavalry of Death had suffered a loss in front of Bu Fang’s restaurant, the squad in that battle was nowhere near as strong as this one here, either in numbers or in high-end combat forces.

Accompanied by the rumble of thunder, dark clouds kept flying in from the distance, turning this part of the city dark. The air was filled with a nightmarish aura, making all those who sense it tremble uncontrollably.

Houtu sat cross-legged in front of her palace, facing the countless men of the Cavalry of Death. Slowly, she opened her eyes. Her indifferent expression startled many nobles and experts who were watching in the dark.

“Why is Her Excellency Houtu acting so cool?”

“Is she going to fight the entire Cavalry of Death all by herself?”

“There’s no way she can do that, right? Not to mention that Her Excellency Soul is also here!”

Suddenly, all the nobles froze. They watched with wide eyes as Houtu slowly rose to her feet and walked step by step toward the cavalry, her robe fluttering.

The Cavalry of Death stopped. They were clad in black armor and surrounded by the aura of death. Their mounts were growling in voices that seemed to be able to shatter the stars.

“Are you going to kill yourself, or do you want me to help you?”

Soul appeared in midair. She was surrounded by a layer of curse power, which was surrounded by another layer of sin power. It gave her a bizarre look. All the nobles sucked in their breath as her voice rang out.

“She actually asked another Cursed Goddess to commit suicide! She’s so… aggressive and domineering!”

Houtu, however, did not answer. She just gave Soul a mocking glance.

Soul raised her hand. The next moment, the palace began to shake violently. The walls were soon full of cracks, and the whole building looked as if it might collapse at any moment.

“You think you still have a chance? Without Duchess Nightmare, you are no match for me,” said Soul.

Houtu’s hair whipped in the wind, and her red lips pouted slightly. She knew the importance of this battle. The war between the Soul Demon Universe and the Primitive Universe was at a stalemate, and the battle in Void City would be the key to the final showdown between the two universes.

Therefore, Houtu would not back down. Besides, she was a very proud person. She would never kill herself just because Soul told her so. She took a step forward and floated up into the air, her loose robe billowing in the wind.

“Isn’t it just an army? Come, let me see how strong the famous Cavalry of Death is,” said Houtu.

In midair, Soul’s eyes narrowed slightly. The next moment, she raised one hand and waved it gently. At the gesture, the Cavalry of Death immediately began to charge.

…

The atmosphere in the restaurant became a little stagnant.

Viscount Ash sat at a table with a somewhat heavy face. Since she had chosen Nethery, she must worry about her future. Master Zhen Yong sighed. They exchanged a glance and saw the worry in each other’s eyes.

They knew very well that Nethery’s power was simply not strong enough to stand up against Soul. What should they do, then? When Soul got rid of Houotu, she would surely turn back to deal with Nethery. By then, they would be in a very bad situation.

Perhaps they should go and help Houtu now? No, it was no use at all. With their strength, they could provide little to no help even if they were there.

At another table in the restaurant, Bu Fang leisurely sipped a cup of warm tea, looking like a retired old man.

At the sight of that, Viscount Ash and Master Zhen Yong both did not know whether to laugh or cry. They could not understand why the chef could be so calm. Did he not realize that they were in great danger now?

Nethery was playing with Foxy. Like Bu Fang, she was also very calm because she knew it was safest to stay in the restaurant. Curled up in her arms, the little fox’s fluffy tails were wagging.

Countess Aitang and the others had left, but Marquis Lang Gu stayed. Although they were not happy with what Soul had done, they had chosen to support her a long time ago, and their forces were inseparable from her.

They were different from Marquis Lang Gu, who was alone and could leave whenever he wanted. Their forces were already integrated into Soul’s. Therefore, they had no other choice but to continue supporting her.

Marquis Lang Gu sat in a corner, sulking. Marchioness Moti’s death greatly saddened him. The amazing little girl, on the other hand, was walking around inside the restaurant.

Outside the restaurant, a squad of Cavalry of Death was watching them. The leader was a Chaotic Saint. Of course, he was only the weakest Chaotic Saint, about as strong as the crone who took care of the fighting pit.

However, such strength was enough. They did not come here to stop Bu Fang. Their job was to keep an eye on the people in the restaurant and report any unusual activity to Soul as soon as they saw one.

After drinking the cup of tea, Bu Fang felt warm all over. He put the cup gently on the table, then said, “You all stay in the restaurant. I’ll go back and get some help.”

“Get some help? Do you think this is an after-school fight?”

In a battle at this level, it was not always the side with the most men that won. The only thing that could determine the final winner was the top fighting forces of both sides. It did not matter how many men one side had if it did not have enough top fighting forces.

“Do you really think there are no experts left in the Chaotic Universe?” Bu Fang said, glancing at Viscount Ash and twitching his mouth.

At this moment, Nethery stood up and expressed her wish to go with Bu Fang. However, he shook his hand and refused her.

“You stay here. As long as you stay in the restaurant, you are perfectly safe… No one can break the restaurant’s defense unless the Queen of Curses does it herself,” Bu Fang said. The restaurant was built by the System, so its defenses were definitely very strong.

Viscount Ash and Master Zhen Yong rolled their eyes. They thought Bu Fang was exaggerating. How could the Queen personally take on such a shabby restaurant? And how strong could the defense of a restaurant be? They increasingly felt that this chef was unreliable. Sure enough, the best place for a chef to stay was the kitchen.

Nethery nodded and said nothing.

“Foxy, Whitey, and Shrimpy will stay here, too. I’ll be back soon,” said Bu Fang. Then, he put his hands behind his back and slowly walked toward the second floor of the restaurant. Within moments, he disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

The faces of Viscount Ash and Master Zhen Yong grew a little ugly.

‘Did the chef… really leave? He’s not going to run away from the battle, right?’ Master Zhen Yong thought to himself. ‘But fortunately, he’s not our strongest fighting force…’

Marquis Lang Gu was now considered the strongest fighting force in the restaurant. Master Zhen Yong also had the strength of a Chaotic Saint, and coupled with Viscount Ash, they should be able to hold up to Soul’s attack.

Frowning, Master Zhen Yong sighed and walked out of the restaurant. He had to go back to the Alchemy Workshop to prepare some things.

Viscount Ash had her own guard, but letting this guard, which was not too strong, face the Cavalry of Death was simply sending it to its grave.

Neither of them saw that Nethery’s forces had actually grown a lot, but Xiao Ai saw it very clearly. And she knew very well that all of these forces were brought by Bu Fang.

The chef really seemed to be constantly working miracles. Perhaps he would be able to turn this seemingly hopeless situation around as well?

…

In front of the Queen of Curses’ palace was a realm of chaos. It was constructed with Chaotic Energy and was filled with the power capable of killing Chaotic Saints. In it, countless petals were drifting and swirling.

Duchess Tianlian’s bleak face wore an expression of pity that made her look like a fragile flower ravaged by a raging storm. However, petals wrapped in Chaotic Energy kept emerging around her and then flew toward her opponents, bombarding them and ripping the void.

Duchess Nightmare’s face was cold. She held a sickle in her hand, and with each swing, she chopped countless petals into pieces. Duchess Yunlan, on the other hand, gathered a large number of clouds around her and used them to repel the petals.

They were stuck in the realm because they had lost the upper hand. This made it very difficult for them to break the realm and get out of the blockade. In the battle of the dukes, the upper hand would usually decide the outcome.

Duchess Nightmare and Duchess Yunlan were already very anxious. After they were tricked into coming here, the Cursed Goddesses they were guarding were probably already in crisis. If the Cursed Goddesses they chose were killed, they would be kicked out of the battle for the throne and lose the chance to go further.

They had spent tens of thousands of years preparing for this. If they were kicked out of the battle, all their years of preparation would go down the drain. This was an unbearable price for them.

So, they were trying very hard to get out of the realm. Once they were out, it would be difficult for Duchess Tianlian to trap them again, no matter how strong she was. Just because they could not beat her did not mean they could not flee. After all, they were all dukes, and the difference in their strength was actually very small.

The realm of chaos was filled with collisions and explosions, and the void in it was constantly collapsing. Everyone was racing against time.

…

At the base of Void City, which looked like an inverted cone, countless shadows were slowly emerging and climbing upward. The power of sin spread out from these shadows and began to corrode the bottom of the city. The subtle change did not attract anyone’s attention.

The water of the River of Curse fell like a waterfall. Some shadows actually went into the river full of corrosive power and climbed upward against the current. At this moment, it was as if a dark shadow had enveloped Void City.

Outside the city, the huge figure wrapped in a black robe emitted an icy aura, which froze the void around him. In his hand, he held the Hourglass of Space and Time, in which the golden sand was slowly flowing. His scarlet eyes were fixed on Void City, full of anticipation.

…

The Law of Space trembled, and countless images flashed in front of Bu Fang. He unleashed his powerful mental force and captured a passage that connected Void City and the Chaotic Universe.

The previous passage was found by Heavengod Space. However, with his fall, the passage had disappeared. Now, Bu Fang was going to rebuild this passage.

Rumble!

A white pillar of light thrust into the sky. Many people in Void City were startled. When they turned around, they found that a figure rushed into the light pillar, distorted, and vanished, all while the Law of Space kept spreading.

“Oh? Is he running away?” Looking at the light pillar, Soul twitched her lips in disdain. Then, she turned to look at the Cavalry of Death down below, who was closing in on Houtu, and focused her eyes. The black orb emerged, shrouded in the power of sin.

The light pillar was very conspicuous. Many people thought that Bu Fang had run away, and they felt disappointed. Now that he was no longer here, there would be no more challenges, and they had lost the opportunity to acquire Chaotic Energy.

However, the escape of the chef did not have any effect on the situation in Void City.

…

In the center of the Chaotic Universe…

Lord Dog, lying on the ground in the Temple of Heavengod Time, suddenly opened his eyes. The next moment, he disappeared.

In the Temple of Heavengod Life, Er Ha was talking to a group of female Gods when he focused his eyes and then vanished in a flash. His sudden departure stunned the female Gods.

In a corner of chaos, Bu Fang emerged, and Lord Dog and Er Ha appeared at the same time. After the beam of space faded away, Bu Fang looked at them with the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

Lord Dog narrowed his eyes and said, “Bu Fang boy, you’ve come back just in time. The Temple of Heavengod Destruction has just returned to us. In other words, Heavengod Destruction is about to return!”
