Chapter 1118: The Second Man After Several Thousand Years
Translator: Zen.o.bys, CatatoPatch
G.o.ddess City, a city whose inhabitants were entirely women…
At least, Bu Fang had, so far, not laid eyes on any man or… any male creature.
He had seen little girls, teenage girls, middle-aged women, and old women. However, there was no man. Even the green dragons that the women had ridden were all… female dragons.
This isolated city seemed to have developed a matriarchal society.
Bu Fang walked on the firm, stone ground. He was a little surprised as he looked up, spotting an endless number of buildings and so many large roads.
Everything looked so strange and new.
Bu Fang was walking in the middle of the troop of women, which was led by the beautiful woman called Lin Damei. She tugged the reins of her green dragon as they slowly moved down the big road.
Hawkers and vendors stayed off the road. They were all women—young women and even grannies older than eighty years old. Many of them were so curious, looking at Bu Fang who was squeezed in the middle of the troop.
Then, the entire G.o.ddess City raised a head-splitting uproar.
“A man!”
“My G.o.d! Is that a real man? It’s the first time I’ve ever seen one!”
“How many years has it been since we last saw a man?”
The onlookers discussed boisterously. New things had always caught people’s attention easily.
When Bu Fang felt the number of stares being directed at him, his scalp went numb.
What kind of place is this?
How could men be so rare here?
Nevertheless, Bu Fang remained calm. His face was emotionless, as it was whenever he kneaded his dough.
Lin Damei turned around to check on Bu Fang, and when she saw how calm he was, she grinned. Her white teeth and wheatish complexion gave her a stunning look.
They walked down the street, pa.s.sing through many buildings and other structures.
Those structures looked interesting. The windows were open, where some women with graceful bodies could be seen sitting, looking at Bu Fang with curious eyes.
The people in G.o.ddess City rarely saw men, so they were all curious.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, eventually, Bu Fang’s gaze s.h.i.+fted to something in the distance.
There was a large square close to a lake, and in the middle of that lake, a column of water was shooting up into the sky.
When the green dragons saw the lake, they roared. They flapped their wings and shot towards the lake, splas.h.i.+ng water everywhere as they began to play and frolic wildly.
A fiery sun was suspended in the sky above. However, Bu Fang knew for certain that he was underground, so that sun had to be a fake. It had to be some sort of energy gemstone that was hung there.
The scorching sunlight shone down on the skin of the green dragons, reflecting beautiful radiance.
“This is our G.o.ddess City’s Dragon Lake. It’s where our good friends, the Green Dragons, live,” Lin Damei said to Bu Fang.
Bu Fang nodded. Those lizard-like dragons were all high-level and much stronger than the half-dragons Bu Fang had seen before.
There was no doubt that these dragons had a larger proportion of True Dragon blood in them.
In Bu Fang’s eyes, these green dragons were somewhat better ingredients.
“Her Majesty wants to see you. Follow me.”
When Lin Damei saw Bu Fang looking elsewhere, she was somewhat irritated. The green dragons were her partners, the pride of her army.
“The others, stay here and wait for orders. It’s worth celebrating that we’ve captured a man today. Tonight, I invite you all. We, the Green Dragon Army, will book the entire Spring Wind Pavilion!” Lin Damei said as she turned around and spoke to her troop. Then, she placed her hands on her waist and laughed out loud.
The female soldiers were all excited.
Lin Damei turned back and raised her brows at Bu Fang. “What are you looking at? Hurry up.”
Bu Fang’s mouth twitched. He turned and walked past Dragon Lake.
Behind Dragon Lake was a ma.s.sive and imposing palace, which was at the center of other impressive buildings around G.o.ddess City.
This palace was colossal and luxurious, with red walls, gold roof, and jade stairs. In front of the palace was a stone tablet.
The stone tablet was milky and ivory. However, unlike common stone tablets, this one did not have any words carved onto it.
“This is the symbol of our G.o.ddess City, the Wordless Tablet of the G.o.ddess. Legend says that it could contact the G.o.ddess.” Lin Damei looked at the tablet with great respect.
Bu Fang nodded. A wordless tablet…
Really interesting.
However, Bu Fang did not pay much attention. To that wordless tablet, he didn’t have any opinion or concept.
Nonetheless, that majestic palace made him feel some pressure.
G.o.ddess City was simply a small country. It was isolated and self-sustaining, which was somewhat strange and mysterious.
But they had never met a man before.
Melodious sounds from instruments rang out from the palace.
With a solemn expression, Lin Damei adjusted her clothes, causing her b.r.e.a.s.t.s to bounce.
A melodious female voice reverberated from the palace.
Lin Damei led Bu Fang down a path that was covered with a luxurious red carpet. They slowly entered the palace.
The moment they stepped inside, Bu Fang’s face was. .h.i.t by an extremely intimidating pressure.
Bu Fang’s pupils dilated, and he sucked in a breath of cold air.
He could not help looking up, seeing the interior of the palace.
The luxurious interior of the palace was clad in gold and jade. Each column was carved out of gold with all kinds of mysterious drawings.
Some stone columns had many precious gemstones embedded in them, making them look more magnificent.
The ceiling, which also had gemstones embedded on it, was really high up, illuminating the room with its divine light.
Jade stairs, precious metal handrails, a golden throne…
Bu Fang took in the scene with a slackened jaw. He could not help but sigh.
These women are so… extravagant.
The moment they entered the palace, multiple gazes were directed their way like arrows. Bu Fang instantly got gooseb.u.mps.
There was a ma.s.sive golden throne at the upper part of the palace, and a figure could be seen leaning comfortably on it.
With red satin and exquisite jades, the throne had a phoenix with a curtain made of pearls.
The woman sitting on the throne had a graceful and curvy body. Her red, satin garment outlined her figure, and her legs—which were crossed at her knees—seemed to glow, emphasizing her creamy and fair skin. In short, she was so charming and attractive.
Should one look up from her legs, they would spot her stunning bosom, and just above them was her long neck on which a giant emerald hung.
That precious stone released waves of energy that somewhat refreshed a person’s mental force.
Bu Fang’s eyes eventually moved to her face.
She was extremely beautiful, and her face was exquisite, like that of a deity or a s.e.xy female demon. The lush red lips on her n.o.ble face seemed arrogant, and the aura of royalty that she exuded made her even more breathtaking.
The moment this woman came into view, it was as though her presence had dimmed all the light in the world.
Bu Fang’s eyes somewhat shrank.
She was, without a doubt, the most beautiful woman Bu Fang had ever met.
Anyway…
Bu Fang was just about to sink into the woman’s eyes, which were like a sea of stars, when his spirit sea surged.
He snapped out of his daze and began thinking again at this point. He exhaled and raised his guard as he looked at that splendid woman.
“Hail Your Majesty!”
Lin Damei looked almost frantic as she fell on one knee, placing both hands at her forehead to greet the Empress.
“General, please get up.”
A voice as captivating as the melody of a harp escaped the beautiful woman’s lips.
Lin Damei got up, her excitement visible in her eyes. Every woman acted timid in front of the beautiful woman. It was clear that the beauty of their empress had subdued them all.
Bu Fang took in a deep breath.
An extremely intimidating aura was emanating from the breathtakingly beautiful woman. That aura was even stronger than that of the Nether Prison’s expert, who was trapped behind the bronze gate.
This woman was extremely powerful!
She should be no weaker than Lord Dog.
Bu Fang could not help but feel that the system had trapped him in a big hole this time.
This woman… Bu Fang was not sure he could do anything to her, even if he used the Peris.h.i.+ng Pot.
Lin Damei opened her mouth, about to speak, but the Empress raised her beautiful, slender hands, silencing Lin Damei.
The woman got up with a sway, and her long, creamy legs attracted everyone’s attention as they brushed the throne lightly.
Finally, the woman had gotten up from her throne. Her long robe billowed, and with the phoenix crown on her head, she slowly soared upwards.
“A man?” The aloof empress looked at Bu Fang from up high with indifference.
Bu Fang’s face was immediately a.s.saulted by a terrifying pressure, which almost forced him to his knees.
This made him frown.
Bu Fang’s Vermillion Rove turned fiery red, and sparks scattered everywhere behind him.
He did not move an inch, however.
The Vermillion Robe fluttered wildly as Bu Fang arrogantly remained standing.
Swis.h.!.+
Bu Fang’s move made every woman in the palace stand up. The expressions on their faces were murderous, and the auras that burst out of them were terrifying.
Some of them were as strong as Realm Lord Di Tai…
“Impudent!”
“You see the Empress Her Majesty, yet you failed to kneel!”
“Men are all stupid!”
Many gasps rang out. Their indignant voices were like the echoing morning bells or evening drums that affected Bu Fang.
Their persistent chattering gave him a horrible headache.
As the Empress hovered, revealing her beautiful long legs, her lips parted as she looked at Bu Fang with interest.
It had been a long time since a man came to G.o.ddess City. That was why Bu Fang’s appearance interested them.
Nevertheless, many in the G.o.ddess City felt wary and frightened.
This was because it was stated in their ancient books that every time a man came to the city, he would bring disaster along with him.
The women around were chattering nonstop, but the Empress didn’t stop them.
Bu Fang was really annoyed.
“Enough,” Bu Fang said indifferently.
No one listened to him, though. Lin Damei sneered.
Bu Fang took a deep breath, then exhaled. His eyes glowed, and the bandage on his arm loosened, letting out a reverberating b.e.s.t.i.a.l roar.
Black smoke wound around his arm as the Black Turtle Constellation Wok appeared, which he promptly smashed into the floor.
Bang!
The large tremor overwhelmed the chatter of the women in the hall.
Everybody turned to look at him.
“I said, enough,” Bu Fang calmly said, scanning the place with an indifferent gaze. His eyes glowed as bright as torches.
A moment later, he directed his eyes to the woman hovering in the air in an aloof manner.
“Empress of G.o.ddess City, I’m just here to find the G.o.d Vanis.h.i.+ng Mountain. I have a very urgent matter to do there. Please understand that I didn’t intend to trespa.s.s in your city.” Bu Fang’s Vermillion Robe fluttered as he spoke.
The velvet rope that tied his hair came undone, letting loose his sleek, black hair. His fluttering hair made him resemble a deity that had descended to this world.
“So, I wonder if Your Majesty could show me the way… to G.o.d Vanis.h.i.+ng Mountain?” asked Bu Fang.
The entire palace was dead silent.
The women stared at Bu Fang in astonishment. They hadn’t expected the man to be so arrogant and powerful.
Lin Damei turned to look at Bu Fang, her red lips quivering in disbelief.
Suddenly, a burst of laughter rang out.
The women turned to look at their empress in surprise.
They could see the beautiful Empress, who they all respected, covering her mouth as she laughed without stopping. Her eyelashes fluttered on her exquisite face.
After a while, her laughter stopped.
“In several thousand years, you’re the second man to intrude our G.o.ddess City, and you also want to go to G.o.d Vanis.h.i.+ng Mountain… Interesting.”
Her cold but beautiful eyes fell on Bu Fang as she continued, “Ah… I forgot to tell you. That first man called himself Nether King something. His name was Tian Cang. Now, tell me, what’s your name?”
