Chapter 1560: The Crown Prince and Stinky Tofu
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A bowl of stinky tofu…
A pungent stench wafted out from the bowl into the crown prince’s nose, causing his stomach to turn. It was a very disgusting feeling.
Was Bu Fang asking him to disgust those Soul Demons to death with this bowl of stinky tofu? How was that possible? Their savageness could not be so easily suppressed by a bowl of stinky tofu!
The crown prince wanted to refuse, but Bu Fang forced the bowl into his hand. He exhaled deeply, feeling that his life was darkening at that moment.
After pus.h.i.+ng the stinky tofu into the crown prince’s hand, Bu Fang patted him on the shoulder and said with an expressionless face, “Go now. I believe in you.”
The crown prince rolled his eyes. Then, he rushed up into the sky, holding the dragon knife in one hand and a bowl of stinky tofu in the other. Stepping on the void and rising into the air, he looked like a dragon out of the deep, emitting a powerful aura that was striking to the eye.
He had comprehended two supreme Laws of the Universe and had successfully broken through into the G.o.d realm, so his current cultivation base and fighting prowess were very strong. As soon as he joined the battlefield, he rushed toward the Soul Demons as if he were a ferocious beast, wielding his dragon knife with a monstrous desire to fight.
With his hands clasped behind his back, Bu Fang stood at the top of the Luo Family’s skysc.r.a.per. The wind had picked up, blowing at his Vermilion Robe and making it flap noisily. As he watched the crown prince rush into the sky like a dragon, the look in his eyes became very strange.
Nethery gave him a quizzical look as if she could feel that something was hiding behind his expression.
Er Ha and the t.i.tan crown prince also came to the rooftop. Er Ha took one look at the sky, yawned, and retreated into the restaurant. As for the latter, he clenched his fists, and his eyes turned red.
Those Soul Demons were occupying the bodies of the t.i.tan Divine Dynasty’s experts! The crown prince swore that he would destroy all the Soul Demons to avenge the destruction of his homeland!
…
The Xiayi crown prince shot up into the clouds. He felt as though a surge of energy was spreading up inside him from the soles of his feet and through his whole body!
His aura was extremely strong and scary. As he kept waving the dragon knife in his hand, knife energy filled the air. These attacks, which contained the Law of Destruction and the Law of s.p.a.ce, exploded with great power. With every stroke of his knife, he managed to slay several ordinary Soul Demons!
The more the crown prince killed, the more delighted he was. He even felt that the level of his spirit was about to be elevated. He was the crown prince, and he had to defend his home! He was going to fight alongside the Divine Emperor!
With a bowl of stinky tofu in one hand and the dragon knife in the other, he kept sending out powerful attacks. The more he fought, the braver he became. At a certain point, he even forgot that he still had the stinky tofu in his hand…
However, as he continued to fight, he began to feel something odd. He found more and more Soul Demons around him—their numbers kept increasing. This struck him as strange.
The pressure on him became very heavy, and because of the increase in the number of Soul Demons, he was feeling more and more burdened even with his strength. In the end, it even became much harder to swing the dragon knife.
BOOM!
The crown prince forced back several Soul Demons with one blow. These Soul Demons, with scarlet eyes and saliva dripping from their mouths, looked extremely disgusting, while their l.u.s.trous insect scales made them look exceptionally scary.
“What the h.e.l.l is going on here?!”
The more the crown prince fought, the weirder he felt. As the Power of Law on his body exploded, he flashed across the sky like a shooting star. Behind him, roars that sent chills down one’s back echoed out, and the Soul Demons followed him in frantic pursuit.
As he moved, however, more and more Soul Demons joined his pursuers.
“What the f*ck…” The crown prince’s face turned black, and he almost cursed out loud. As much as he wanted to fight, he did not want to die.
“Are all Soul Demons so shameless? Have they always been fighting in groups?”
The experts in the surrounding area also felt weird and a little confused as they watched the crown prince being chased. Even the Soul Demons who had been fighting with them suddenly dropped out of the fight and joined the chase.
Was the crown prince really… that attractive?
The crown prince’s scalp was tingling. He looked over his shoulder and saw countless Soul Demons chasing him, and that made all his hair stand on end.
“Why are there more and more of them?!”
His heart twitched, and he was almost scared to death. Whoever was in this situation would have been terrified.
All of a sudden, a rumbling sound rang out. The crown prince felt that the area around him was completely enveloped by a terrifying demonic aura, causing his flight speed to slow down significantly.
“Dammit! It’s a Numbered Soul Demon!” The crown prince’s pupils constricted. With his current cultivation base, he was a dead man against a Numbered Soul Demon. After all, the difference in strength between him and a Numbered Soul Demon was too great!
The eyes of the approaching Numbered Soul Demon were scarlet as he let out a ferocious roar toward the crown prince. However, before he could attack, he was forced away by a sword light.
“Scram!” At that critical moment, Gold Armor descended and thrust his sword, which turned into ten thousand swords in the blink of an eye, and forced the Numbered Soul Demon away while also seriously injuring many Soul Demons behind the crown prince. His face became very grave.
‘Have these Soul Demons sensed the crown prince’s special status? Or did they find out about his amazing talent?’ Gold Armor thought. ‘I heard that Soul Demons like humans with great talents the most because they taste good… Has the crown prince become their target because of that?’
Gold Armor frowned. Naturally, he could not let the crown prince become food for these Soul Demons. The status of the crown prince was very honorable, so how could he be eaten by these savage creatures?!
Rumble!
A sword light swept out, turning into a dragon and flying toward the Number Soul Demon in the distance. Gold Armor wanted to use his cultivation base to forcibly attract those Soul Demons and make them change their target.
The next moment, the Numbered Soul Demon and Gold Armor were fighting against each other again. The other Soul Demons, however, turned and continued to chase the crown prince.
The crown prince, who had already breathed a sigh of relief, felt horrified. “Did these fellows sense my amazing talent and recognize my honorable status?! I must hold on… I must not fall into the hands of these Soul Demons!”
He threw back his head and let out a long cry, suddenly feeling the great responsibility weighing down on his shoulders. Holding the bowl of stinky tofu in one hand and the dragon knife in the other, he kept moving in midair.
He glanced at the stinky tofu in his hand with a slightly disgusted look in his eyes. If it was not forced into his hand by Bu Fang, he would have thrown it away right there!
A dozen Soul Demons were constantly closing in. Their mouths were wide open, and their saliva was dripping, making them look crazy. Every Soul Demon’s eyes were scarlet, exploding with infinite greed and desire! Their noses were sniffing while their faces were filled with intoxication.
The crown prince turned around and made a slash with his knife, which transformed into a roaring dragon and went straight at those Soul Demons. However, he was unable to force back any of them. He gritted his teeth, stomped his feet on the void, and began to flee frantically.
He could not allow himself to fall into the hands of these Soul Demons! He was the man who would inherit the throne!
In the distance, the Divine Emperor and the two Keepers were locked in a battle. The area tens of thousands of miles around them had become completely empty, and even the remains of the stars had been shattered to ashes.
The sound of violent collisions rang continuously, filling the entire void!
…
The crown prince felt that the divine power in him was about to dry up. It was a really bad feeling. Gradually, he could not fly anymore. Some of the Soul Demons chasing him were weaker, but there were too many of them.
He could no longer dodge. “Am I going to die soon? Am I going to die before achieving triumph? Am I going to be beaten to death by a group of Soul Demons? Why don’t you fight me one-on-one in a dignified manner?!”
The crown prince was furious. He put away his dragon knife, grabbed the bowl of stinky tofu, turned his head, and glared at those Soul Demons. He began to roar, trying to drive the Soul Demons back with an att.i.tude that was fearless of death.
However, these Soul Demons acted as if they did not feel anything, completely unaffected by his att.i.tude.
‘Are these Soul Demons not even afraid of death anymore?’
“To kill me, you Soul Demons are really willing to go all out! With my status, to kill just one or two Soul Demons would be a loss… I must at least kill all these Soul Demons! This way, all the people in the Xiayi Divine Dynasty will remember their amazingly gifted crown prince!”
The crown prince turned around, threw back his head, and gave a long cry. The next moment, he flung out the bowl of stinky tofu violently. Now that he was about to die, he no longer had to carry it anymore! Bu Fang’s deterrence would not work on him anymore!
“Crown Prince Punch!”
His eyes turned red all of a sudden, and his aura skyrocketed, thrusting into the starry sky like a beam of light. With a sense of determination and a will to die, he was going to fight these Soul Demons who had driven him to this hopeless situation!
He wanted to let these Soul Demons know that a crown prince was not someone they should chase! There was a price to pay for chasing a crown prince!
“Come on!” The crown prince waved his fists and roared, his voice shaking the stars!
The eyes of the surrounding human experts were wet, and some of them even rushed crazily toward the crown prince.
“Your Highness, you must not die!”
“Your Highness is our faith!”
“If Your Highness dies, these d.a.m.ned Soul Demons would have achieved their goal, and the Xiayi Divine Dynasty’s morale would be deeply affected! We can’t let that happen!”
There were tears in the eyes of the human experts. Their hearts ached for the crown prince who had decided to sacrifice himself!
BOOM!
The crown prince roared and threw out his fists. For a moment, however, the atmosphere became a little awkward. The bowl of stinky tofu he had thrown out spilled its content, and a strange and unbearable stench immediately wafted through the air, enveloping the surrounding area.
However, the stench was unable to erase the determination within the crown prince’s heart. He did not care about the stinky tofu anymore.
All of a sudden, those Soul Demons who were chasing the crown prince changed direction and all went after the stinky tofu. The stinky tofu that had scattered in midair, deep-fried until golden brown and coated with a stinky sauce, had become the target of these Soul Demons!
Bam!
The Crown Prince Punch struck out and hit… nothing! The Soul Demons had all turned away! The crown prince froze in midair, watching those ferocious creatures who were trying to kill him a moment ago turn around and chase after the stinky tofu…
At this moment, he seemed to understand something. When he remembered Bu Fang’s words of encouragement as he patted him on the shoulder, he felt like vomiting blood.
“As the crown prince of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty, I am not better than a bowl of stinky tofu?!”
The crown prince’s eyes turned red!
Even those human experts, who thought the crown prince was doomed, were petrified. “So… Are you here to be funny, Your Highness?!”
They sighed, s.h.i.+fted their targets, and charged toward those Soul Demons again. As for the crown prince, he could do whatever he liked… Their goal now was to kill the enemy!
The crown prince’s heart hurt a little. Looking at the Soul Demons who no longer paid attention to him but went after the stinky tofu, he sighed. As a crown prince, he was outdone by a bowl of stinky tofu, which he disliked so much and stink as bad as s.h.i.+t!
“Are these Soul Demons… despising me?!”
His eyes were blazing like torches. As his anger mounted, he turned his embarra.s.sment into the desire to fight and let out a deafening roar! The next moment, he shot forward to kill those Soul Demons who were chasing the stinky tofu.
There were a total of ten stinky tofu in that bowl. As their juice spilled into the air, a strange stench suddenly wafted across the sky. It smelled nasty to humans, but to Soul Demons, it was a fragrance so strong that their legs became weak and they could hardly walk.
A Soul Demon grabbed a piece of stinky tofu, and his face immediately showed a wild look of joy. Then, he shoved it into his mouth and chewed it up immediately.
When the crown prince saw that, he felt his hair all stand up. ‘Bu Fang’s food is so poisonous that both humans and Soul Demons loved it! I thought some said Soul Demons have an innate aversion to human food?’
Suddenly, the crown prince froze. He looked into the distance and saw… those Soul Demons who ate the stinky tofu began to tremble violently, while a flame seemed to emerge from inside their bodies.
Soon, the flames spread and incinerated the Soul Demons. Only the crown prince saw that, and he was utterly stunned.
Some Soul Demons saw that, too, but they could not resist the temptation of stinky tofu. They knew it would kill them, but they could not suppress their appet.i.te and stuffed it into their mouths.
Before long, ten Soul Demons who had eaten the stinky tofu were burned to ashes. The power of the stinky tofu was really… terrifying!
