Chapter 1563: The Destruction of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Could a ladle be so strong?
All the people were stunned, and their faces looked strange as they stared at the Soul Demon, who was breaking apart like a bubble. No one knew what to say at this moment. The result was really beyond their expectation.
The Soul Demon’s might was incomparably terrifying—he could even cause the weather to change. However, before such a terrible Soul Demon even landed, he was smashed to death by Bu Fang with a ladle.
“With this ladle, I’m… invincible.”
That was a very powerful statement. However, everyone felt a little odd upon hearing it. No one would think it odd if the ladle was replaced with a knife or sword, but a ladle… They felt nothing, and some even wanted to laugh out loud.
Bu Fang looked unperturbed as he played with the ladle. Everything was under his control. After all, the ladle was a G.o.d of Cooking Set in its perfect state, and with the Qilin sitting in it, it was an easy thing to use it to deal with a Soul Demon.
He slowly stepped down from midair and landed on the top of the Luo Family’s skysc.r.a.per. The ladle spun in his hand, then he hung it from his waist once again.
Nethery looked at him with an odd expression on her face. ‘Sure enough, he’s still the Bu Fang I’m familiar with. Even a ladle is so powerful in his hand…’
The Xiayi Divine Emperor breathed a sigh of relief as the worries he had for Bu Fang were now completely gone.
The battle continued, but there should be no more surprises. With the Divine Emperor rejoining the fight and the two top Numbered Soul Demons gone, the remaining Soul Demons were no longer able to cause great trouble. After all, the Soul Demon did not send too many forces to attack the Xiayi Divine Dynasty.
The Divine Emperor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. Although he was seriously injured by a Soul Demon’s self-destruction, his flesh had begun to slowly recover. He was, after all, a G.o.d Emperor, so his resilience was naturally very strong.
The huge ancient beasts were still lying across the starry sky. When the Soul Demons sitting on their backs saw the two top Numbered Soul Demons fall, their expressions changed immediately.
They had seriously wounded the aging Xiayi Divine Emperor with the self-destruction of a top Soul Demon, so their first objective was considered accomplished. As for their second objective, which was to kill the chef, they had failed to complete it.
Was the chef really that fearsome?
“Retreat!”
A Soul Demon’s eyes flashed. The next moment, strange waves spread from his scarlet eyes as he was informing the others to retreat.
Of course, there was no way the Xiayi Divine Emperor would let these Soul Demons leave so easily. At the very least, he had to make the three ancient beasts stay behind. For every one of these war beasts he reduced, he increased the chances of human victory in future battles with the Soul Demons.
He stepped forward and threw out a punch. Although he had lost the Divine Emperor Seal, his fighting spirit did not wane at all. At this moment, a towering figure appeared behind him, and it threw out a punch as well, aiming at one of the great ancient beasts. The whole starry sky seemed to shake under this blow.
Ancient beasts were weapons of war, but their strength was nowhere near as good as the Divine Emperor.
A rumbling sound could be heard as the Divine Emperor’s fist burst the ancient beast’s tail. Green blood immediately spurted out of the wound and kept spilling across the starry sky. The beast wailed in pain, while the Soul Demon sitting on its back howled, jumped up without the slightest hesitation, and fled at top speed, abandoning the ancient beast.
With piercing eyes, the Divine Emperor threw out one punch after another, killing the ancient beast with pure physical strength. Just like that, a beast that was as enormous as a star was killed, fell from the starry sky, and lost all its vitality, becoming the dust of the universe.
After that, the Divine Emperor kept charging and killing the enemies. The morale of the divine dynasty’s experts was at an all-time high. There was no doubt that they had won the battle!
At last, the Soul Demons retreated, floundering into the depths of the starry sky. The bone wars.h.i.+p was destroyed, and the rest of the ancient beasts were captured. The victorious experts of the divine dynasty all waved their weapons in the starry sky and cheered at the top of their lungs!
“The Xiayi Divine Dynasty will prevail!”
As the backbone of all the people, the Xiayi Divine Emperor stood proudly in midair, his body glowing dazzlingly.
The experts returned and landed inside the capital. The ancient beasts were captured, as were the fierce beasts capable of destroying divine artifacts.
When the experts returned from the starry sky with the huge ancient beasts in their grasp, the whole capital erupted into a deafening cheer. The people were very grateful because they had won the battle. They dared not to imagine what would happen to them if the battle was lost.
The ancient beasts were really too enormous, so they were kept in a spatial prison by G.o.d Kings who were good at the Law of s.p.a.ce. These ancient beasts were definitely a nightmare for humans.
On the top floor of the Luo Family’s skysc.r.a.per, the corners of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched slightly as he watched the experts return home in triumph. Then, with his hands clasped behind his back, he turned to go back into the restaurant. However, as soon as he turned around, he froze for a moment.
The t.i.tan crown prince wore a complicated expression as he looked at the people who were cheering. His heart was filled with mixed feelings. He also wanted to see the t.i.tan Divine Dynasty’s experts cheering like that, but unfortunately, he no longer had this opportunity.
The t.i.tan Divine Dynasty had been overthrown and was already a thing of the past. Still, he was happy to watch the Xiayi experts winning the battle. He wiped away the tears from his eyes and exhaled deeply.
At this moment, the Xiayi crown prince landed on the top floor of the skysc.r.a.per, and he looked at Bu Fang in confusion. He still could not accept that his attractiveness as a crown prince was not as good as a bowl of stinky tofu. So, he went straight up to Bu Fang to know the answer.
However, Bu Fang did not explain to him. He had actually developed this stinky tofu after returning from the t.i.tan Divine Dynasty to specifically deal with those Soul Demons. With a shake of his hand, he pulled out another bowl of stinky tofu and handed it to the crown prince.
“Don’t ask. Just finish up this bowl of stinky tofu,” he said.
The crown prince’s face froze, then he looked at Bu Fang with a dumbfounded expression. His eyes were wide, and the look in them seemed to be saying, ‘Why does this stuff stink so bad? As a n.o.ble crown prince, how could I possibly eat such a thing?!’
After a while…
Squis.h.!.+ Squis.h.!.+
“My goodness… I can’t believe this tofu is so delicious?! Its texture and taste don’t match at all! I get it! To the Soul Demon, the more delicious a dish is, the more deadly it is… I see! Owner Bu, you really are a genius!”
The Xiayi crown prince squatted in a corner with a bowl of stinky tofu in his hand, eating happily with grease all over his lips.
Meanwhile, the t.i.tan crown prince had recovered from his sadness. He took a disgusted look at the Xiayi crown prince, who said no to the stinky tofu but was eating happily now, and thought, ‘I can’t believe this guy with no integrity is a crown prince!’
“Owner Bu… Can you ma.s.s-produce this stinky tofu? If you can do that, we can use it when the Soul Demons attack us again, and we can give them a head-on blow and show them why it stinks so much!” said the Xiayi crown prince. He had already finished the bowl of stinky tofu, leaving not even a single sc.r.a.p.
“Ma.s.s production?” Bu Fang paused. He thought for a moment, then looked at the crown prince and said, “You can come to the restaurant to buy it… The restaurant will launch a new dish tomorrow, stinky tofu.”
The crown prince’s eyes lit up. The next moment, he sped off into the distance, taking the bowl with him. He was going to tell his father the news so that he could ask all the experts in the divine dynasty to buy the stinky tofu from Bu Fang. When everyone had stinky tofu, they would be able to defeat those Soul Demons once and for all!
Bu Fang’s face darkened as he watched the crown prince fly away. “This guy… He should have left the bowl to me! Does he think the bowl doesn’t cost anything?!”
…
The Xiayi Divine Emperor sat on his throne in the great hall of the imperial palace. His face was pale. In the battle that had just ended, the Soul Demons had achieved their objective of seriously wounding him. Of course, it was also a losing battle with heavy losses for the Soul Demons.
The number of ancient beasts was already limited. Therefore, losing three at once was a great blow to them.
The Divine Emperor tapped his fingers on the arm of his dragon throne. He was waiting for news from the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty. He did not doubt that the battle there was definitely far more tragic than he had here.
Earlier, he had contacted the Empress of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty to inform her of Soul Thirteen. But before he had finished speaking, the connection between them was broken. This worried him a little.
Once the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty was lost, the Xiayi Divine Dynasty would be the only line of defense in the whole Chaotic Universe. And after devouring the entire Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty, the Soul Demon’s power would certainly grow to a very terrifying level.
“Ai…” The Divine Emperor sighed.
Just then, the Xiayi crown prince flew into the great hall and hurriedly told the Divine Emperor the news he got from Bu Fang. Having the means to deal with the Soul Demons was definitely good news.
When he handed the Divine Emperor the stinky bowl, the latter almost slapped him to death. Fortunately, he explained in time to make his father reluctantly believe it. After all, he could not deceive his father with such a thing.
“Very well… Pa.s.s down my decree for all the experts in the capital to go to Owner Bu’s restaurant and buy stinky tofu…” said the Divine Emperor.
With this decree, one could only imagine how booming Bu Fang’s restaurant would become, and his turnover would definitely get a huge boost. After all, his stinky tofu had become an officially recommended food.
The crown prince beamed with joy. Stinky tofu might not affect Numbered Soul Demons as much, but at least it could affect them. As for ordinary Soul Demons, it was definitely a killer. Anyone could burn many Soul Demons by throwing out a bowl of stinky tofu.
‘It’s just that doing so is a bit of a waste of that delicious stinky tofu…’
The crown prince stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. He wondered if he should buy a few bowls first to enjoy himself.
Suddenly, the Divine Emperor’s expression changed. That startled the crown prince, and he looked at his father in confusion.
Sitting in the dragon throne, the Divine Emperor’s pupils constricted. With a thought in his mind, he raised his hand and waved it, and an array immediately appeared before him.
This was the array that connected him to the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty. After waiting for so long, it was finally activated again. He wondered how the battle had turned out there…
The crown prince, meanwhile, had finally woken up from the delicious taste of the stinky tofu and turned his head to look at the array.
‘Oh? The Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty? I wonder what good news it will bring us?’
With a humming sound, the array began to spin, emitting a dazzling light. Soon, it projected a bleak scene in midair: collapsed buildings, broken bricks, drifting corpses, bright G.o.d’s blood…
“This…” The crown prince sucked in a cold breath as a look of horror appeared in his eyes, while the Divine Emperor’s face became very serious.
Suddenly, a b.l.o.o.d.y hand appeared in the picture. It was a woman’s hand, judging by the slender fingers and the fair skin. With the appearance of the hand, the crown prince and the Divine Emperor felt their hearts beat faster and faster.
The image spun violently, and then a bloodless face came into view. It was a woman with disheveled hair and a very wretched appearance. She was the Empress of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty! Both the crown prince and the Divine Emperor recognized her at once. She looked very miserable at the moment.
Cough, cough, cough…
The Empress opened her mouth and coughed up blood. Her Phoenix Cry Bow had broken into two pieces, and her robe was also torn, exposing the fair skin underneath. However, the father and son were not attracted by that because what they saw told them a cruel truth…
“The Immortal Spirit… Divine Dynasty… is finished…” the Empress said as she coughed up more blood, her eyes filled with grief and despair. “Soul Thirteen is about to evolve into a HeavenG.o.d… Only the Xiayi Divine Dynasty remains the hope of the Chaotic Universe…”
Blood gushed out of her mouth with every word she spoke. A rumbling sound echoed out behind her. Countless human experts had been turned into corpses and devoured by the Soul Demons, and the air was filled with chilling howls of misery.
Suddenly, the Empress beamed with energy as if she was having terminal lucidity.
“I have arranged for my subordinate… to send the crown princess of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty… to the capital of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty… You must protect her! She is the hope of humanity and the Chaotic Universe!”
She grabbed the array, her eyes bursting with dazzling light.
Suddenly, a silver claw fell violently, grabbed the empress’s head, and then slowly lifted her. Everything in the picture was beginning to blur.
“Hehehe… You’re looking for help? It’s useless… Soon, even the Xiayi Divine Dynasty will follow in the footsteps of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty!” said an icy voice.
As the pupils of the father and son constricted, a face appeared in the picture in midair. It was a face covered with silver insect scales and drawn with scarlet barbaric glyphs, and the outline of the t.i.tan Divine Emperor’s face could still be seen. A terrible aura came through the array, causing both the father and the son to almost suffocate.
Soul Thirteen!
They both gasped at once.
The Empress in the picture was struggling violently. The next moment, she let out a determined roar, and then her body exploded abruptly! The picture quivered and disappeared completely.
A sad look filled the Xiayi Divine Emperor’s eyes. With his body trembling, he took several steps back and slumped onto his dragon throne, feeling that he had aged a lot in this instant.
“The Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty has… fallen.”
The crown prince was shaking as well. Soul Thirteen’s gaze made him feel as if he had plunged into an icy cave. How could they possibly defeat an existence like that?!
“Pa.s.s down my decree for Gold Armor to lead a search for nearby teleport arrays… He must bring the crown princess of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty back to the capital in good condition!” the Divine Emperor said wearily.
Outside the great hall, Gold Armor, after receiving the decree, took the Gold Armor Guard and flew out of the palace in a flash of gold.
…
In the restaurant on the top floor of the Luo Family’s skysc.r.a.per, Bu Fang sat in a recliner, squinting at the bleeding sky. Just as he was about to fall asleep, however, his eyes flew open.
The System’s serious voice suddenly rang out in his head.
