Chapter 1838: The Queen… A Living Dead?!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
An invisible fluctuation spread through the entire universe. Bu Fang and Lord Dog sensed it, and they both arched their eyebrows.
The fluctuation came from Void City. Perhaps the only person who could emanate this kind of energy fluctuation in Void City today was Nethery, who was receiving the Queen of Curses’ legacy.
Bu Fang and Lord Dog looked in the direction of Void City. They were one universe apart, but they could still vaguely see that the city was undergoing a huge transformation.
“Let’s go,” Bu Fang said, looking at Lord Dog.
As soon as he said that, he, Lord Dog, and Er Ha soared into the sky.
Wushuang flew on his sword. Stepping on the blade, he seemed to break through the bondage of time.
Golden light and hot air spewed out from Whitey’s soles as it turned into a beam of golden light and rushed out of the universe. Shrimpy and Foxy clung themselves to Whitely.
Xiao Yanyu’s long dress was fluttering. Looking at Bu Fang and the others who had disappeared, she smiled faintly and walked toward the Temple of HeavenG.o.d Transmigration.
If she wanted to inherit the Causality Throne of HeavenG.o.d Transmigration, she still had much to learn.
…
Bu Fang and his company landed in Void City. His arrival this time was completely different from the last time.
As Bu Fang appeared, the few dukes immediately sensed him. They opened the gates and welcomed him—today’s Bu Fang was qualified to be welcomed by them.
District D was opened up. Countless exiles stared at Bu Fang from afar, their faces filled with fear and terror. The aura spreading from Bu Fang and his company terrified them.
“These are the people banished to Void City?” Wushuang asked, carrying his iron sword on his back.
This was the first time he saw these exiles. Every exile was a person with stories, but Wushuang was not interested in these stories. Everyone had stories, so stories were not something rare.
District D, District C, District B, District A… All the gates were wide open, allowing Bu Fang to have a smooth journey.
Soon, Bu Fang and the others landed in District A. After a thousand years, the destroyed District A had already been restored to its original appearance.
In the distance, the Queen of Curses’ palace was surging with the power of curses.
The little girl, Cursey, looked at Bu Fang with surprise. “You’re still alive!” she said.
Flowery was very excited when she saw Bu Fang, Lord Dog, and Er Ha. She thought Bu Fang was already dead. It never occurred to her that Bu Fang would stand right here, unscathed. It was really great.
Lord Dog raised his paw and touched Flowery’s head. He was delighted to see the tiny snake grow into an enormous Sky Devouring Python. The feeling of nurturing a little girl to this stage was rather satisfying.
At least it was much more interesting than Bu Fang’s changeless face. There was only one interesting soul, but there were thousands of interesting skins.
d.u.c.h.ess Yunlan, d.u.c.h.ess Nightmare, d.u.c.h.ess Tianlian—as well as the counts, viscounts, and n.o.bles of Void City—all came to greet Bu Fang voluntarily.
Apparently, a thousand years were not so easy for them to forget Bu Fang. Now that they saw him again, they were filled with mixed emotions.
The little chef in the past had grown to a level where they could only look up at him. Perhaps… This was the genius who only existed in the legend!
Looking at Cursey, Bu Fang raised a hand and tapped her on the head with a flick of his finger, causing her to cover her forehead and squat down in pain.
Xiao Ai fixed her eyes at Bu Fang with excitement. “Owner Bu, you’re back!”
Bu Fang nodded at Xiao Ai, then turned to look at the tightly shut Queen of Curses’ palace. Looking at it, his expression grew slightly serious.
“The Queen of Curses’ palace…”
Everyone turned to the palace. At this moment, the entire building was wrapped up by a formidable aura. Anyone familiar with this aura would know that it actually belonged to the Queen of Curses.
It was very likely that Nethery was about to inherit the Queen of Curses’ legacy!
The few dukes were very excited. After all, with the return of the Queen of Curses, Void City would no longer be the weakest among the four major universes.
The Primitive Universe had the Primitive Great Path, the Soul Demon Universe had Soul G.o.d, and the Chaotic Universe had Bu Fang.
Void City, on the other hand, did not have the Queen of Curses before this, and they did not even have the right to speak.
However… Once the Queen of Curses appeared, the situation would be changed. When the Queen of Curses reigned supreme over the multiverse, she was feared by even the other three major universes!
The Queen of Curses… was also an Ancestral G.o.d! At the level of top experts, only the experts of the same level had the right to speak.
“The Queen is about to return to the world…”
d.u.c.h.ess Tianlian was very excited. All three dukes were the Queen’s loyal supporters, but… if one must choose which of them was the most loyal to the Queen, it would be d.u.c.h.ess Tianlian.
Bu Fang’s brows furrowed slightly.
Er Ha felt very melancholy. He held a spicy strip between his lips.
Wushuang was standing at his side, puzzled after hearing a few emotional sighs from him.
“What are you sighing for?” Wushuang asked.
Er Ha glanced at him and said, “A young man like you knows nothing. Leave me alone.” After saying that, he began to sigh again.
“I miss the good old days when I awed the world with my power. Even Bu Fang young man and Nethery were s.h.i.+vering under my mighty aura.
“But they are all stronger than me now… Even that metallic lump has caught up with me. How could a young man like you know this kind of loneliness and afflictive emotions?”
Er Ha raised his head despondently and looked at the dark sky, his eyes deep.
“Where should I put my heart on a night alone? Ai…”
The corner of Wushuang’s mouth twitched. Shaking his head, he glanced at Er Ha and said nothing again.
‘No wonder His Excellency asked me not to mix with Er Ha so frequently. His Excellency is afraid that I’ll be infected by him. This fool…’
Rumble!
The terrifying aura was spreading. Meanwhile, some figures could be seen approaching from the sky.
They were Mu Hongzi and Summer. As they drew near, Mu Hongzi was singing his happy background song.
“Summer, summer pa.s.sed quietly, leaving behind a little secret. I kept it in my heart, in my heart, and I can’t tell you…”
The happy tune immediately dispersed the sorrowful atmosphere Er Ha had been brewing for half a day.
Er Ha was fuming. He stared at Mu Hongzi from the corners of his eyes, wanting to let the man know the surging anger in him with his gaze. He wanted to show the beautiful man how terrible it was to offend a lonely man!
Mu Hongzi, of course, chose to ignore him. He came to Bu Fang’s side, put his hands behind his back, and marveled at the Queen of Curses’ palace.
“The Queen of Curses… A supreme existence who had a very deep bond with the G.o.d of Cooking,” Mu Hongzi said.
Bu Fang glanced at Mu Hongzi. It seemed that this fellow knew a lot of gossip.
“Don’t look at me. I know nothing.” Mu Hongzi shook his head.
Bu Fang twitched the corner of his mouth. He turned back to the palace. The power of the curses was boiling. He narrowed his eyes, wondering how much longer the process of pa.s.sing the legacy would continue.
“It’s not so easy to accept the Queen of Curses’ legacy… It is not as relaxed and simple as the G.o.d of Cooking’s legacy,” Mu Hongzi said.
Rumble!
Sure enough, as soon as Mu Hongzi said that, the entire Void City began to tremble.
“Bu Fang, many experts of the Primitive Universe had gone to the Ancestral Planet to ambush Soul G.o.d. Why didn’t you go with them?” Mu Hongzi asked curiously.
“It will not be so easy for them to ambush him… What is Soul G.o.d’s heart? Is it a person or an object? Where is it sealed? We know nothing about it. They will be like blind men feeling an elephant on the Ancestral Planet,” Bu Fang said.
He had gone to Earth to seal Soul G.o.d’s heart, but he had failed to find it even after asking the human emperor.
It was very likely that the others would come back empty-handed, so Bu Fang was not anxious. There was nothing he could do now even if he was anxious.
“I might as well help Nethery inherit the Queen’s will first. When the time comes, she might even be able to help in the battle,” Bu Fang said as a faint smile brushed his lips.
Just when the crowd was talking, a rumbling sound rang out, freezing everyone. They all turned to look at the Queen of Curses’ palace.
There… A plume of black smoke emerged. The Stairway of Star showed up once again, flas.h.i.+ng like a star as it stood at the top of the sky.
Everyone was looking up at it.
Suddenly, the stairway split down the middle. The coffin appeared again, slowly floated up, and hovered in midair…
“It’s the Queen of Curses’ coffin!”
The n.o.bles of Void City became excited. Many people dropped to their knees with a feverish look on their faces.
Bu Fang put his hands behind his back and looked at the coffin. A bowl of steaming fried rice was placed on top of it, just like what he had seen a thousand years ago.
There was no doubt that the fried rice was a G.o.d of Cooking’s dish. In the past, Bu Fang might not be able to feel it, but now, he could clearly sense that the fried rice was cooked by the G.o.d of Cooking.
Even Bu Fang could not cook this bowl of fried rice at his current level.
His mental force surged forth and enveloped the fried rice. He was astonished in an instant. The fried rice was not simple… The emotions brewing inside shocked even him. However, a hint of ruthlessness was mixed in those rich emotions.
Bu Fang was walking the Emotional Path now, so he was very sensitive about these things.
The fried rice on the coffin was vibrating as if it was preventing Nethery from receiving the legacy.
With a dull creak, the lid of the coffin was slowly pushed open. A familiar figure was lying inside. It was Nethery, but it also did not look like her but the Queen of Curses.
Bu Fang’s pupils narrowed slightly. He sensed an unusual aura. There was terrible resentment, hatred, and killing intent in the Queen’s will that Nethery was about to inherit.
“Something’s not right…” Bu Fang’s brows furrowed, his voice serious. He fixed his eyes on the coffin… The fried rice on the coffin emanated a unique aura, while the power of the curses tangled around the coffin like a coc.o.o.n…
Resentment, hatred… If the inheritance were to continue like this, Bu Fang felt the consequences would be unimaginable.
Nethery might be enveloped by these afflictive emotions and completely turned into a Queen of Curses who was demonized by the acc.u.mulation of resentment and hatred!
While the n.o.bles of Void City were caught up in a frenzy, Bu Fang came to Cursey’s side, who was holding her forehead and squatting on the ground.
He reached out a finger and pointed it at Cursey’s brow. The aura of resentment and hatred poured into the little girl’s spirit sea.
Cursey was so frightened that she took several consecutive steps backward. “What is this?!”
“Do you find this aura familiar? Is the Queen of Curses’ aura like this?” Bu Fang asked expressionlessly. He seemed to perceive the seriousness of the matter.
“No… It is absolutely not like this… Although I’m just the clone of the Queen’s soul, I dare to guarantee that the Queen’s original aura is not like this!
“Although the Queen of Curses was cold, she was actually a woman who was cold on the outside but hot on the inside…” Cursey said.
Bu Fang nodded. In that case… He looked up at the coffin hovering in midair and exhaled deeply.
“Then these problems came from the Queen of Curses who is currently lying in the coffin. Could it be that… the Queen… had become a living dead?!” Bu Fang said.
After saying that, he took a step. The void seemed to be compressed as the step took him right in front of the Stairway of Star.
All the people were stunned, and then their expressions changed dramatically.
Wushuang widened his eyes. ‘Is His Excellency… about to make a scene again?’
Er Ha’s eyes lit up. ‘Sure enough… Bu Fang young man is as good at creating scenes as ever.’
Lord Dog furrowed his brows, while Mu Hongzi was stunned. As for the n.o.bles of Void City kneeling on the ground, their expressions changed drastically.
“Bu Fang! What are you doing?!”
The three dukes stood up at the same time, shouting in alarm.
However, Bu Fang ignored them. He raised his hand and grabbed the bowl of steaming fried rice. Then, he reached out the other hand and gave the coffin a gentle tap as if he was knocking at someone’s door.
The next moment, a suction exploded out of the coffin and pulled Bu Fang into it…
“Stinking chef… Come in… and be buried with me!”
