Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Countess Xia Qiu’s words gave Bu Fang pause.

‘She wants me to cook her a dish? It’s just a small request... Why does she have to be so secretive? She even sealed up the surroundings... Has cooking become such a taboo thing in Void City?’

The countess could tell Bu Fang’s doubts. There was a faint sneer on her face as she said in a serious voice, “In Void City, cooking is a... taboo. The Queen of Curses’ hatred of chefs is what you would never be able to imagine.

“Before this, the only people who can cook in Void City are the dead and the cursed ones... Such as you and that old man.”

Bu Fang leaned back on his chair, adjusted himself into a position that he thought was comfortable. “In that case, why did you ask me to cook a dish? Why did you risk the great taboo?” He gave Countess Xia Qiu a sideways glance.

As soon as he asked the question, the atmosphere in the room stiffened. He paused. What did he say wrong this time? ‘Well, since she’s not talking, I’ll just keep drinking tea.’

The tea contained unique energy that seemed to be able to strengthen the flesh. Such an enhancement was terrifying. At his level, Bu Fang’s physical body was almost invincible, but the tea could still strengthen it.

“The way you talk... No wonder the Cursed Goddess doesn’t want to talk to you.” Countess Xia Qiu chuckled.

The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched. “You know all about it? I came to Void City to look for my buddy, and your Cursed Goddess is my buddy... I’m also looking for the arm that belongs to an unknown being of the Soul Demon Universe, which had merged with Heavengod Transmigration and fled the Chaotic Universe,” he said seriously.

“You don’t have to explain anything to me...” Countess Xia Qiu shook her head. She did not care about what Bu Fang said. She knew he was the man who spied on Void City not long ago, but she did not mind, for he posed no threat to the city.

“I want a dish... I want to know why... he was so obsessed with cooking,” she said with a sigh.

Bu Fang nodded. “To be honest, cooking is a good thing. With the Queen of Curses’ aversion to chefs, she will never be able to truly appreciate the joy of cooking,” he said, twitching his mouth.

“You don’t understand... The Queen is also a poor soul. So even though she separated me from him, I couldn’t hate her.” Countess Xia Qiu did not agree with Bu Fang.

“Well... Let’s not talk about these irrelevant matters. You have plenty of time to think about what dish you want to cook. If your dish can’t let me feel your sincerity, then you can forget about finding your Cursed Goddess... Oh, your buddy.”

She did not talk much to Bu Fang. Talking to someone who did not know how to properly conduct a conversation was very boring.

Bu Fang shrugged, then rose to his feet and turned. “I hope you can keep your promise...”

“Don’t worry. While you are cooking, I’ll seal off the Countess Residence so the Queen of Curses can’t sense it...” Countess Xia Qiu said seriously. This issue was important.

“I admire your courage. As a subject, you are bold enough to... cause trouble underneath the Queen’s nose,” Bu Fang said with the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

Countess Xia Qiu just smiled. There were things that Bu Fang did not understand. After sending Bu Fang away, she sat down on a chair and held a cup in one hand, her eyes shifting.

The old man had passed away, but she felt no grief. She knew she should mourn for him, but the countless years of slaughtering had made her forget how to cry.

Void City was not a peaceful place, especially in recent years. The Queen of Curses had begun to look for her successor. All the Cursed Goddesses wandering in different universes were brought back, and under the protection of dukes, they began to fight for the throne.

In today’s Void City, the undercurrent was strong... It was not as calm as it seemed.

...

Bu Fang walked inside the Countess Residence.

District C was indeed completely different from District D. If the latter was the stinking sewer, then the former was the magnificent and prosperous business district.

The layout and decoration of the residence were not in a garden style, but the luxurious, exquisite, and even futuristic buildings still gave Bu Fang a unique feeling.

Void City was a fusion of beings from all universes, so a variety of ideas collided and produced many extraordinary things. This had been described in Heavengod Space’s book, who was amazed by the building styles in this unique city.

Bu Fang clasped his hands behind him. Whitey followed him quietly. Shrimpy perched on its round head, spitting bubbles, while Foxy curled herself in its arms. Whitey’s body was made of cold metal, but it was not cold at all. Instead, it was warm like a human body, and Foxy enjoyed the warmth.

Bu Fang was thinking about what dish he was going to cook. He had done some analysis on Countess Xia Qiu. She and the old man, who might be the host of some previous generation, had developed an indescribable relationship. However, the Queen of Curses had separated them.

She even went on the opposite side of the old man. But after countless years, the old man finally saw her again, and he even touched her heart with the cost of his own life. This confused her.

Countess Xia Qiu wanted to find the reason why the old man had confused her. So she asked Bu Fang to cook her a dish, for the old man was also a chef. Moreover, he was a chef very much like Bu Fang. She saw in him the younger version of the old man.

The ground of the residence was paved with a kind of solid and transparent material. As Bu Fang walked, he seemed to discover something. He squatted and looked through the transparent floor.

There was a space under the ground with plants growing inside. Bu Fang looked at them carefully. Soon, he realized that they were only one plant. Its leaves were bright green and bursting with life force, and they kept spreading and withering, then spreading, and withering again, forming rapid cycles.

“Hmm? What is that?” Bu Fang paused. The leaves looked like tea leaves to him. He stopped a passing maid to inquire.

The maid glanced at Bu Fang with a disgusted look in her eyes. Everyone in District C knew that Bu Fang was a bug who crawled up from District D, and the people of District C always felt superior when standing in front of someone like this.

“Move out of the way... you lowly bug,” the maid said, frowning. She was a peak God Emperor. Although her strength was weaker than that of Bu Fang, her pride derived from her status.

Bu Fang was somewhat speechless as he glanced at the maid. He could not understand where this maid’s sense of superiority came from.

“What is the thing under the ground?” Bu Fang asked.

The maid sneered. “Why should I tell you? You’re not qualified to know!” After that, she turned to leave. “Also, let me warn you. The things in the Countess Residence are not something that can be touched by a lowly person like you. If you break them... A lowly bug like you can never afford to pay!”

Looking at the proud maid, Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly, the maid froze, for she found that her way was blocked by a huge metal puppet. “What are you doing? Move out of the way, you dirty thing!”

She screamed, lifted her palm, and waved it at Whitey. Although she was a maid, she was born in District C, so her status was much nobler than the bugs of District D!

Whitey’s mechanical eyes flashed. It raised its head and looked at Bu Fang as if asking for permission.

Bu Fang sighed. He looked up at the starry sky and said, “Whitey... Alas, just strip her. Do whatever you like, as long as you’re... happy.”

Whitey’s mechanical eyes burst into a dazzling light in an instant. Then, its huge palm fell whistling toward the maid.

“Troublemaker, you will be stripped as an example to others!”

The maid screamed. Terrible energy flowed around her. It was the cultivation energy of Void City, which could be considered as the power of curses. It collided with Whitey’s palm.

Whitey was unmoved. It even wanted to laugh. The next moment, its palm rested on the maid’s shoulder.

A strong ripping sensation could be felt coming through the maid’s clothes, which terrified her and made her shout out loud, “That’s the tea plantation... It’s the Countess’s tea plantation! It is planted with the Soul Cleansing Tea Tree!” She was shivering all over.

Whitey’s palm paused. Gently, it flicked its finger on the maid’s shoulder, causing her to fall and roll on the ground.

“Oh, a tea plantation.” Bu Fang nodded. His eyes lit up slightly as if he had thought of something.

The maid gave him a venomous look. “You lowly bug...” She pushed to her feet with malice thoughts in her head. She could not believe that a bug from District D would dare to do this to her. Suddenly, before the venomous look on her face disappeared, she felt herself fly up.

With its huge palm, Whitey lifted her and flung her away. The maid arced beautifully through the air and fell into the distance.

Bu Fang did not ask Whitey to kill her. After all, this was Countess Xia Qiu’s residence, so it was not so good to kill someone here. Also, he already had an idea of the dish he would cook for her.

“Whitey, come, let’s go and have a look at the tea plantation,” Bu Fang said.

Whitey put Foxy in its arms again and followed Bu Fang. A buzzing sound could be heard as the Law of Space spread. Then, Bu Fang sank into the ground with Whitey.

As soon as he was inside, he was attracted by the beautiful tea tree. It was a gorgeous tea tree, glowing all over with a bright green light as a vigorous life force pulsing around it.

“So this is the Soul Cleansing Tea Tree? What a strong life force...”

There was no doubt that this tea tree came from another universe and was transplanted in Void City. Its leaves seemed to be alive. They were swaying gently, appearing and disappearing with every movement.

The tea tree itself was extremely tall and huge, so humongous that it was about the size of a planet. The whole tea plantation had one and only one tea tree.

Bu Fang stood beneath the tea tree and looked up at it. His eyes flashed as he found that only the tender shoot on one particular branch could be used as tea leaf.

He was observing the tea tree when suddenly, the whole underground space was filled with a rustling sound. That gave him pause. Then, he noticed that the whole space was enveloped by countless branches of the tea tree.

A terrible hiss echoed out, and a vague but savage face emerged on the thick trunk of the tea tree. The face roared as countless branches lashed out at Bu Fang and tied him up. At the same time, a corrosive power erupted from the tea tree to corrode and melt Bu Fang into nothing.

Bu Fang’s heart skipped a beat. “This is actually a... Chaotic-Saint-level tea tree?!”

Rumble...

The whole residence was trembling. Countess Xia Qiu, who was reminiscing, was startled. The next moment, she disappeared from where she was.

The maid, who had almost been stripped naked by Whitey, ran up to Countess Xia Qiu with a venomous look on her face and said, “Countess, those lowly bugs from District D... T-They intruded your tea plantation!”

“What’s your name?” asked the countess, glancing at the maid.

The maid froze. ‘I’m Dahua...” she said, bowing hurriedly. She had a bad feeling about this.

“Leave the Countess Residence now. Those people are my distinguished guests. You are just a maid. How dare you treat them like that?” Countess Xia Qiu’s voice was cold. Without giving the maid a chance, she vanished from where she was.

The maid was struck dumb. Perhaps she would never know the reason why she was thrown out of the Countess Residence.

Countess Xia Qiu’s figure flashed and appeared in the tea plantation. At this moment, the entire plantation was enveloped by countless branches, and the tea tree seemed to be boiling with rage. Two large balls made with countless branches intertwined together floated in midair.

“Am I too late?” She sighed.

The Soul Cleansing Tea Tree was a Chaotic-Saint-level being, and a bad-tempered one. She did not expect Bu Fang to suddenly come into the tea plantation. Now that he was wrapped up by the tea tree, he was dead.

Countess Xia Qiu was helpless, and she planned to leave. Even she would have a headache if she were caught by the tea tree. Bu Fang was just a Saint of the Great Path, so she knew that he was beyond rescue.

Roar!

The face on the tea tree roared at her. The countess’s face grew cold. Suddenly, she paused and looked up at the two large balls in midair.

With a ripping sound, they were slowly being torn apart...
