Chapter 1407 Mu Hongzi

A warship blotted out the sky and cast a shadow over the whole Yellow Spring City, causing panic among the people. Terrible pressure hung like a boulder over every heart. The city was bustling with activities and noisy at night, but at this moment, it was dead silent.

All the people had either knelt or lay on their stomachs on the ground. It was as though they were facing a supreme God. The fear and horror in their hearts made them shiver, as though a great terror had descended.

The figure standing at the front of the warship was elegant and had attracted all the light in the world. At this moment, he seemed to have been the only focus of the world, attracting the eyes of countless people. Glances filled with various emotions such as awe, shock, and passion were thrown at the man.

The door of Yellow Spring Little Restaurant flung open with a thud. Standing on the deck of the warship, the beautiful man clasped his hands behind his back, looked through the door, and saw Bu Fang. A gentle smile brushed his lips. It was a smile of seeing an old acquaintance.

Bu Fang stood at where he was with the hair on the back of his neck bristled. The gaze from the man filled his heart with a strange feeling. Even then, Lord Dog came beside him, staring at the beautiful man with glowing eyes.

How could there be such a beautiful man in the world? Even Nether King Er Ha, who had been a narcissist, felt ashamed when facing him. He was a perfect man who would make any girl or even man fall in love with him, and his charming smile had made the hearts of those who saw it race.

Step by step, the man walked out of the warship with his hands clasped behind him. He looked like an immortal descending into the world, unhurried and relaxed. A few moments later, he landed in Yellow Spring City, standing in front of Yellow Spring Little Restaurant.

The man studied the restaurant. There were complicated emotions in his eyes. After a long time, he sighed, then started toward the door.

When Di Ting saw the man, he was so frightened that all his hair stood on end, and he gave a cry of disbelief before rolling and crawling toward the back of the restaurant.

But the beautiful man had only lightly waved a hand at him, and he was frozen in an instant. Then, he was lifted off the ground and began to slowly fly toward the man. He was a God, and yet he did not even have the power to fight back.

The next moment, Di Ting transformed into a short-legged dog and was held in the man’s arms, who tenderly caressed his head and back.

“Who are you?!” Bu Fang’s pupils constricted when he saw Di Ting was so easily captured. He had no doubt the strength of this man in front of him was extremely fearsome, stronger than him at the very least and might even be stronger than Lord Dog.

Di Ting was a God after all. Although he had only comprehended an ordinary Law, he was not someone a common God could capture, not to mention in such an effortless way.

“You’re asking me that?” The man smiled gently. He had a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to speak, and they stared at Bu Fang, gleaming.

The gaze made Bu Fang’s hair stand. After all, it did not feel good to be stared at by a man with such a gentle look in the eyes.

“We’ve met before… and we’re old acquaintances,” the man said, smiling. Then, his face turned grave and solemn.

“Those who want to reach the peak will be accompanied by disaster and misfortune. Life or death is just between a thought…

“Now that you’ve broken through transmigration, you should give up everything. Only by doing so could you have a glance of the… transmigration.”

When the man had finished speaking, the corner of his mouth curved upward again, and he put Di Ting down on the ground.

Upon touching the ground, Di Ting ran as fast as his short legs could take him, hiding and trembling behind Lord Dog.

Then, in just a flash, the beautiful man approached Bu Fang, his face stopping just one inch away from the latter’s.

Bu Fang could even feel the warm breath on his face as the man talked, which tickled him. The corner of his mouth twitched. “You are the mysterious existence sealed up in that bronze palace…”

“That’s right. You are indeed clever, truly worthy to be the chosen one,” said the man in a magnetic voice as he snapped his fingers. Then, he raised a hand and tried to touch Bu Fang’s face.

Bu Fang bolted backward and avoided the man’s hand. ‘Don’t think that just because you are as beautiful as a girl, you can hide the fact that you are a man and touch my face freely…’

The man’s hand froze in midair, and he looked somewhat embarrassed. He put down his hand, stared at Bu Fang, and said, “You grow really fast, faster than me…” He glanced around nostalgically, clasped his hands behind his back, and paced in the restaurant.

For a moment, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Lord Dog’s expression was somewhat strange. ‘According to Bu Fang boy, this fellow is the mysterious existence sealed up in the bronze palace drifting along the Yellow Spring River, who escaped after the Senseless Lotus was picked… But how come he’s a border emissary of the Divine Dynasty?’

“You don’t have to be so suspicious… I’m not surprised that the Netherworld has become a great world, but my return here is indeed a surprise,” said the man.

“You didn’t come back of your own accord?” Lord Dog was confused.

The man glanced at Lord Dog and said, “Of course not… I am banished here. I’ve offended someone in the capital of the Divine Dynasty.”

Di Ting and Bu Fang were rendered speechless.

As if he could sense everyone’s astonishment, the man smiled gently and said, “But it is good that I’ve returned. The Netherworld is much more comfortable… You are Bu Fang, right? That’s a good name. I’m Mu Hongzi, and it is also a good name.”

Bu Fang was somewhat speechless. This fellow seemed to be a narcissist as well. Still, Bu Fang realized that he should be the previous host.

‘I never expect that he’s the mysterious existence I met in the bronze palace. It has not been too long, and yet he has gotten himself a human look… He truly was a man chosen by the System, just like me.”

Mu Hongzi stared gently at Bu Fang and kept approaching, forcing Bu Fang to keep moving backward.

‘He’s so aggressive and seems to have some evil intentions…’

Suddenly, Nethery stepped between the two of them, and together with Foxy in her arms, they gave Mu Hongzi a sideways glance.

Mu Hongzi paused in an instant, while Bu Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

“If you want to talk, talk properly and don’t touch here and there,” Nethery said expressionlessly.

Mu Hongzi glanced at her and chuckled. “Alright. I never thought the Cursed Goddess would speak for you. Well, I’ll do her a favor then.”

He took a step back, pulled over a chair, and sat down, looking indifferently at Bu Fang.

“I couldn’t wait to meet you as soon as I arrived in the Netherworld. I saw the past me in you… And Bu Fang, you have grown better than me in the past.”

Mu Hongzi shook his hand and produced a jar made of red jade. From it, he poured two cups of wine, one for himself and one for Bu Fang.

Bu Fang took the red-jade cup. The wine was clear and not very aromatic. Judging from the smell alone, it was not a good wine.

“Take a sip. This is the wine I’ve meticulously brewed. Even the God Kings in Xiayi Divine Dynasty crave for it, but none of them could taste it,” said Mu Hongzi. After that, he downed his wine in one gulp.

Bu Fang exhaled softly. ‘This Mu Hongzi certainly has something to tell me. But since he’s not in a hurry, I’ll be patient.’ He brought the cup to his lips and finished the wine in one gulp as well.

Boom!

As soon as the wine entered his throat, an explosive bouquet burst inside Bu Fang, while his consciousness seemed to travel through the void. In the blink of an eye, everything had disappeared, including Lord Dog, Nethery, Er Ha, his Artifact Spirits, and even the System. Bu Fang even forgot to savor the wine in his mouth.

He jerked up his head and looked at Mu Hongzi, who sat across him and was smiling gently at him.
