Chapter 1410 Smiling Lees Fish

‘Popular?’

Bu Fang paused. He found that the way Mu Hongzi described Nethery was somewhat strange and interesting. But soon, his pupils constricted. ‘Is it because of her constitution? Her nightmarish cursed constitution would become the source of attraction for the many experts in the Divine Dynasty?’

Mu Hongzi nodded with satisfaction when he saw that Bu Fang seemed to grasp the meaning of his words. ‘He truly is the chosen one. Just like me, his ability to comprehend things is amazing…’

“The Law of Curse is also a very powerful Law, and it is the strongest Law under the supreme Laws of the Universe. As a Cursed Goddess, the curse in this little girl will be the source of attraction for many Gods cultivating the Law of Curse… To put it simply, she is an excellent cultivation vessel,” Mu Hongzi said with a smile.

A cultivation vessel?

Bu Fang narrowed his eyes. He glanced at Nethery, who was holding Foxy in her arms, and took a deep breath. “Don’t worry. I’ll keep her by my side, and I’ll kill anyone who covets her,” he said expressionlessly.

A tender look came into Mu Hongzi’s eyes. “How manly! I like the little manliness in you… So cute! Well, it’s time for you to embark on your journey!” he said, then lightly slapped the warship.

Rumble!

The array on the ship began to flicker. The next moment, it turned into a stream of light and sped away.

…

The warship broke through the clouds, rushed past darkness, and came into a vast expanse of a starry sky. It was fast, and a rumbling sound filled the surroundings as it flew, but it was all quiet inside the ship.

“An advanced warship is unlike any others. It’s already amazing for normal warships to travel short distances through the cosmos… This ship’s materials are so good, and it feels so comfortable to stay inside while it flies at such a high speed,” Er Ha said with a smile and a spicy strip dangling between his lips.

Through the warship’s transparent windows, they could see the magnificent starry sky outside. They could clearly feel that they were flying at a great speed, and in just a few moments, they had left the Netherworld’s boundary. In their eyes, the Netherworld kept shrinking, and soon, it turned into a black dot before disappearing completely.

Meanwhile, the stars around them were moving back faster and faster. It meant that as soon as they left the Netherworld’s boundary, the warship began to increase its speed.

It was very quiet inside the warship. The only sound that could be heard was the breathing of the crowd. Lord Dog lay on the ground, sleeping, his fat jiggling as he breathed. Er Ha was staring through the window at the starry sky with a spicy strip between his lips. Nethery, on the other hand, sat quietly in a corner with Foxy in her arms. Flowery was beside her, blinking her big eyes.

This was the first time they left the Netherworld, so naturally, they felt a little nervous. Even Er Ha had a reluctant look on his face. After all, leaving home for an unknown world would always fill one’s heart with uncertainty.

Bu Fang pondered for a while. Then, to break this awkward atmosphere, he rose to his feet and walked to the back of the cabin. Mu Hongzi’s warship was specially prepared for chefs, so it had all the necessary kitchen equipment.

He came to the kitchen, flicked his fingers, and threw out the silvery-white Divine fire. The flame began to burn, twisting the void. He then produced the Black Turtle Constellation Work and placed it over the fire.

What he was preparing to cook this time was a dish from his memory. He had cooked it once a long time ago. He wanted to use it to make everyone feel happy and relieved of sadness and homesickness.

He went into the Heaven and Earth Farmland, stepped into Niu Hansan’s wooden hut, and took out a fat fish. It was covered with pale pink distillers grains and gave off a rich alcoholic aroma.

This was a delicacy. The fish was marinated with the distillers grains made of rice containing the Will of the Great Path. Of course, for it to become a true delicacy, Bu Fang needed to further process it.

Holding the fish by the tail, he returned to the warship. The kitchen was so well insulated that the smell of the dishes would not spread into the cabin.

Bu Fang produced the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife, spun it, then held the fish’s head with the other hand. A strange fluctuation spread from the knife as he brought it down hard like a meteor, making incisions on both sides of the fish and removing the bones. Then, he rubbed the distillers grains into the cuts.

After putting the fish on a plate, he took out a few mushrooms, made a cross with the blade on each cap, and placed them beside the fish. Next, he added the Spring of Life into the wok, brought it to a boil, lowered the heat, and placed the plate with the fish over the water.

While the fish was being steamed, Bu Fang’s divine sense slowly spread and went into the plate. Through it, he could sense the fish’s texture, as well as the changes in the distillers grains.

The alcohol in the distillers grains gradually seeped into the flesh, causing minor changes to happen in the white meat. The mushrooms had expanded as well and let out a strong fragrance that mixed with the aroma of the fish. Together, they turned into a unique flavor that was hard to describe with words.

The Black Turtle Constellation Wok’s lid rattled as steam rose and pushed at it, while the heat was sucked into the ventilators and ejected from the warship’s tail.

…

Boom!

A meteorite burst amid the chaotic void turbulence, from which came flying out a figure shrouded in black smoke. It was a black savage beast that looked like an octopus, with slime coating its body. There were rows of sharp teeth in its mouth, which was open now as if it was constantly absorbing the strange energy in the cosmos.

As it flew, the octopus began to grow larger and larger, and soon, it rushed into a starry sky.

Somewhere in the starry sky, a huge transport array was rotating slowly. An expert could be seen sitting cross-legged over it, emanating a terrible aura. He was a God. The Power of the Laws swirled around him, causing the surrounding void to crack.

Suddenly, the expert flicked open his eyes. They shone brilliantly as he looked into the distant void, from where a dark figure was slowly approaching.

“What is that thing?!” The man stood up, raised his hand, and waved it. Runes of Laws emerged and danced around his palm, quickly turning into a bow and an arrow. He notched the arrow, pulled the bowstring, and let go.

Twang!

The arrow sped away, pierced through the void, and went straight toward the ugly black beast. A rumbling sound erupted as the arrow hit the savage monster and exploded like fireworks, illuminating the whole starry sky.

A hint of a smile brushed the man’s lips as he said, “A mere cosmic monster is nothing under my Law of Explosion… I’m a God in charge of the cosmic transport array and an official of the Divine Dynasty after all. A mere beast can never pose a threat to me…”

He put away the bow, turned, and sat down in the center of the array.

Flames churned and rumbled in the starry sky. Suddenly, they swelled, and in the next instant, they were devoured by a tremendous suction. The man trembled, turned his head to glance back over his shoulder, and then saw a shadow grow larger and larger in his eyes…

“AHHH!” A miserable shriek rang through the starry sky.

…

“The Smiling Lees Fish is ready.”

Bu Fang removed the lid with satisfaction, and a plume of aromatic steam immediately rushed out of the wok. The smell of the Lees Fish, which contained the Will of the Great Path and the faint Power of the Law, was extremely appetizing.

At his current level, Bu Fang could cook any dish to the peak of perfection. His cooking skills had already gone beyond the boundary of mortals.

He opened the kitchen door and walked to the cabin with the dish in hand. Before long, the whole cabin was filled with the fish’s strong aroma, which refreshed everyone.

When there was food, they naturally gathered together. Even Lord Dog, who was sleeping on the floor, opened his eyes and came to the dining table with an expectant look.

After being processed by Bu Fang’s knife technique, the pinkish Lees Fish looked like a blooming flower. Its head was set upright on the plate, and it looked as if it were grinning. A few mushrooms were placed around it like stars, which made the dish even more enticing.

“This really is a Smiling Lees Fish…” Er Ha’s face became a little strange. He didn’t expect that Bu Fang, who had always been so sullen, would cook a dish like this.

Everyone grabbed their chopsticks and began to eat the fish, showing no signs of leaving some for Bu Fang. Soon, with their eyes lit up, the whole dish was finished. Subconsciously, they lifted the corners of their lips and closed their eyes to savor the aroma of the fish and the refreshing flavor of the mushrooms.

Bu Fang felt joy in his heart as he watched them eat so happily. That was the beauty of delicious food. Food could affect and manipulate diners’ emotions. As for how to give the dishes the ability to do that, it was a test of the chef’s cooking skills.

He breathed out a long sigh, then turned and looked through the window. The warship had slowed down. In the distant starry sky, he could see a huge array. It appeared somewhat dream-like and filled with an enigmatic aura, which could absorb the minds of those who stared at it.

‘So this is the cosmic transport array mentioned by Mu Hongzi. It will take us to the great world where the Xiayi Divine Dynasty is located?’

The warship rumbled and turned into a stream of light, flying in the direction of the array.

Suddenly, Bu Fang focused his eyes as he stared through the window at the distant array. He seemed to see a black, ball-shaped object beating like a heart in its center.
