Chapter 889: Don’t Call Me Little Ji Ji!
Translator: CatatoPatch
The Netherworld s.h.i.+p roared through the sky. It moved as fast as a meteor. The human eye was unable to see its movement.
At this speed, it would take long for the s.h.i.+p to reach Heavenly Mist City.
On the Netherworld s.h.i.+p, Nether King Er Ha rubbed his hands and stared at Bu Fang with bright eyes. He had been bewitched by Spicy Blood Lobsters, so he was now addicted to it.
The others also turned around to look.
Was that Spicy Blood Lobster Owner Bu’s new dish?
Nethery and the others looked a little unsure at first, then their eyes instantly brightened.
Wasn’t Spicy Blood Lobster the dish Nether King Er Ha said that Bu Fang had made in the bronze palace?
Nethery and the others couldn’t stop drooling.
Back then, the aroma that had wafted out of the bronze palace had been so appealing to them. Its aroma was fragrant and spicy, and one light inhale was all it took to stimulate their hunger.
Bu Fang looked at Nether King Er Ha, who had reminded him about the Spicy Blood Lobsters. He had also missed the dish.
The dish was really toxic. No one could restrain themselves around it.
Lord Dog, who had been sleeping a distance away, was now present.
Despite his hatred for eating lobsters, Lord Dog had to compromise with the Spicy Blood Lobster dish. Well, blame the Blood Lobsters. They were what pulled this dog over.
“Bu Fang young man, are you worried about the little beauty in the cabin? You do not have to worry. Although I can’t cure her spirit sea, I can stop her wound from developing further.” Nether King Er Ha rubbed his hands as he looked at Bu Fang.
He had gotten three Spicy Blood Lobsters for doing that. However, to him, even if he had gotten only one Spicy Blood Lobster, it would not have been a loss.
“I just need her to control the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk, so she can help me make wine. It’s a very good wine,” Bu Fang said to Nether King Er Ha.
“Fret not. This Highness understands you, young people. Look at how worried you are. It only takes one glance for me to see it.” Nether King Er Ha grinned.
Bu Fang was astonished. He raised a hand and stroked his face. Were his concerns really easy to see on his face?
Sitting beside Bu Fang was the elegant Nethery, who looked even colder than normal. She glanced at Nether King Er Ha before snorting indifferently.
Saint Daughter Zi Yun’s brows scrunched up when she noticed this gesture. She seized the opportunity to laughingly speak to Nether King Er Ha.
“Stop making noises. This Highness is discussing important matters,” said Nether King Er Ha to Zi Yun.
However, when he met Nethery’s cold eyes, which were like icy mountains, he felt a sudden chill.
“Even when you don’t talk, n.o.body will think you’re mute,” said Nethery expressionlessly.
This little girl had recently become aggressive.
Nether King Er Ha s.h.i.+fted his gaze back to Bu Fang before smacking his lips. The corners of his mouth curled upward, and he began to talk about his Spicy Blood Lobsters once more.
Bu Fang’s expression was cold.
He moved his hand, and suddenly, loud thuds rang out across the deck. A pile of Blood Lobsters had just been dropped on the deck.
They were the Blood Lobsters he had fished up from that lake. They were all huge, and the texture of their meat was excellent.
When Nether King Er Ha saw these Blood Lobsters, his eyes reddened, and his mouth began to water.
Looking at the Blood Lobsters, Bu Fang fell into deep thought. He was thinking about making room in his farmland to breed those Blood Lobsters. Otherwise, if they ate all the lobsters he had now, they wouldn’t have any more to enjoy later.
After some time, Bu Fang kept back some lobsters so that he could feed them later on. Then, he began to process the rest.
The Golden Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife appeared in his hands. The others saw Bu Fang’s hands become a blur as he speedily processed those Blood Lobsters.
Nether King Er Ha became even more excited.
Indeed, this familiar feeling he felt was because the Spicy Blood Lobster that he ate previously had poisoned him.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
The Netherworld s.h.i.+p shot across the sky like an arrow. The sounds of stir-frying could be heard aboard it, and clouds of steam surged from the s.h.i.+p.
Gulp. Gulp.
Everyone on the Netherworld s.h.i.+p was gazing at the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. Its thick, spicy aroma had permeated the entire s.h.i.+p.
Lord Dog got up and approached Bu Fang.
Bu Fang held the Black Turtle Constellation Wok with one hand, while his spatula, which he skillfully used to stir the contents of the wok, was held by the other.
Blood Lobsters were tossed up from the wok constantly, leaving oil trails in their wake. The glow they emitted under the sunlight was dazzling.
The steam and aroma rising from the wok had stirred the taste buds of everyone on the s.h.i.+p.
Nether King Er Ha smiled, his drool dripping to the ground.
Lord Dog was just as excited.
Nethery’s gaze was also fixed on the wok.
Saint Daughter Zi Yun squinted her eyes as she sniffed the fragrant aroma permeating the air.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
Bu Fang poured the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine into the wok, causing white steam to surge into the sky. He shook the wok several more times before letting its contents boil. Soon, he tipped the wok over a large porcelain tray.
Blood Lobsters fell onto the large tray, and its fragrant aroma, which was accompanied by clouds of steam, wafted up in the air. After drizzling the lobsters with sauce, the Spicy Blood Lobsters were done.
Bu Fang swung his kitchen knife once, and the back of each lobster was cut open, revealing the soft meat within.
Nether King Er Ha couldn’t wait anymore. The moment the dish was done, he dashed over and grabbed three lobsters, without any concern for the piping-hot sauce. He twisted the head of the lobsters and began to suck out the delicious juice.
“Oh my! oh my! What a feeling! So delicious and so spicy!”
Nether King Er Ha blushed, closing his eyes in pure happiness. His body was shaking as though he was being electrocuted.
Lord Dog skillfully shoved lobsters into its mouth.
The others just watched Bu Fang because they did not know how to eat the aromatic Spicy Blood Lobsters.
Hence, Bu Fang showed them how to do it. After that, they began to dig in.
After eating a Blood Lobster, Nethery’s eyes opened wide, and an elated expression appeared on her face.
One, two, three, four…
The woman was eating lobsters at an unprecedented speed.
As the Netherworld s.h.i.+p tore through the sky, the people onboard happily ate the fragrant Spicy Blood Lobsters.
The aroma from the s.h.i.+p pervaded the sky. Sometimes, pieces of lobster sh.e.l.l even fell off the s.h.i.+p.
…
The darkness soon made way for dawn.
The sun rose from the horizon in the distance. After a silent night, the Heavenly Mist City woke up.
The bronze doors of the Cloud Mist Restaurant were pushed open, and sunlight permeated the restaurant, warming it up.
It had stopped snowing during the night, but the snow had piled up everywhere.
Yang Meiji’s imposing figure could be seen carrying a broom outside. Then, she began to sweep the front of the restaurant.
“Yeah… Another beautiful day.” A gentle female voice rang out from inside the restaurant. The silhouette of a super-hot female emerged from the restaurant and leaned against the door frame.
This was Sorceress An Sheng. Her alluring figure was appealing to the eyes. The loose chef coat she was wearing did almost nothing to hide her big bosom. The front of her coat bulged so much that it looked ready to explode.
Her pretty face looked drowsy, as though she had just woken up. Leaning against the door frame, she snorted quietly.
“An Sheng, do not cause any trouble this early in the morning. After sweeping the snow, we should practice our cooking skills, knife skills, and carving skills. We must practice them all,” Yang Meiji said as she swept the snow.
Her gaze momentarily landed on An Sheng, who was resting against the door as if she was made of water.
An Sheng’s drowsy eyes fixed their gaze on Yang Meiji, then she raised a finger to her red lips.
“Little Ji Ji, you shouldn’t hurry. It’s such a beautiful day, and we should enjoy it. Owner Bu isn’t here, so he wouldn’t find out if we are lazy. Also, you’re a woman, so you should treat yourself well. You should rest when you need to rest.”
“Don’t call me Little Ji Ji. Call me Yang Meiji. Although Owner Bu isn’t here, we must practice to improve our skills. Otherwise, when Owner Bu gets back and tests our cooking skills, he will get angry.” Yang Meiji said as she swept away another pile of snow. She used the broom to s.h.i.+ft the snow apart, making a road in the middle.
“Nah. Owner Bu won’t come back early. If you want to learn cooking, you have to combine practice and rest. Even if Owner Bu gets angry, he won’t do anything to us. Do you think he will spank me?”
Sorceress An Sheng giggled and arched her alluring body. She turned around and, with a teasing look on her face, wiggled her b.u.t.t at Yang Meiji.
Yang Meiji stared at An Sheng, speechless.
In the distance, two people were slowly approaching the restaurant.
As soon as Yang Meiji saw them, she stiffened and began to blush. She was so anxious that she couldn’t even talk.
When Sorceress An Sheng noticed the change in Yang Meiji’s expression, she giggled.
“Little Ji Ji, your lover’s coming. You should perform well today.”
Nangong Wuque and Nangong Wan had come together. They had made it a routine to come to the restaurant daily to eat.
From afar, Nangong Wuque saw Yang Meiji, who was sweeping the snow, and the alluring Sorceress An Sheng, who was leaning against the door frame.
“Good morning, Big b.o.o.bs and Little Ji Ji!” Nangong Wuque grinned, waving at Yang Meiji.
Yang Meiji blushed even more and went stiff. She could not reply immediately.
“Don’t call me Little Ji Ji… Please, call me Ms. Yang Meiji,” Yang Meiji said, correcting him.
Nangong Wuque grinned.
Suddenly, a loud rumble shook the sky.
The four were bewildered. They raised their heads and saw the black Netherworld s.h.i.+p descending.
The image of the Netherworld s.h.i.+p in Nangong Wuque’s eyes grew bigger, and his pupils could not help dilating. He deftly moved out of the way.
The landing s.h.i.+p generated gusts of air, causing snow to splatter about everywhere.
Moments later, it had landed in front of the restaurant.
Sorceress An Sheng looked at the Netherworld s.h.i.+p in shock. The corners of her mouth twitched.
Suddenly, she had a bad premonition. Had Owner Bu come back?
Several people got off the Netherworld s.h.i.+p.
Nethery squinted her eyes, enjoying the oily Spicy Blood Lobster in her hand. When she got off the s.h.i.+p, she landed right in front of Nangong Wuque.
Nangong Wuque shuddered.
“Ne… Nethery… Sis!”
Nangong Wuque found it difficult to rid himself of the fear he had for Nethery.
Nethery looked at Nangong Wuque in surprise. Her beautiful, red lips, which was covered in oil, parted as she burped.
A spicy aroma wafted out of her mouth, causing Nangong Wuque to tremble.
What was that flavor?
What an aroma!
More people came down from the Netherworld s.h.i.+p.
Nether King Er Ha, whose expression was so sullen as if he could never enjoy life again, looked at Nethery. He couldn’t eat Blood Lobsters as fast as this girl. He had been intoxicated by the Blood Lobsters, but this little girl…
What a heartache! He had missed so many Blood Lobsters!
At that moment, he resembled an eggplant that had been ravaged by frost. Wearing a sullen expression, he sucked on a Spicy Strip to ease his sorrow.
Yang Meiji and Sorceress An Sheng both saw Bu Fang walking down the Netherworld s.h.i.+p.
Yang Meiji looked happy, while Sorceress An Sheng looked devastated.
Sorceress An Sheng now believed that her mouth was cursed. Why did that spooky Owner Bu suddenly return?
“Hey, you guys are all here. Long time no see. How is your practice coming along?” Bu Fang said, the corners of his mouth curling upwards as he glanced at Yang Meiji and Sorceress An Sheng.
