Gourmet of Another World

“Xuanying died? How it’s possible for him to die? How could that bastard Nangong Wuque kill the second elder?”

Nangong Xuanhe emitted his aura without restraining himself. A terrifying fluctuation filled the whole hall and a whistling wind swept through it.

The Ancient Shura City’s experts looked at Nangong Xuanhe with indifference. The corners of their mouth curled upwards as they revealed faint smiles. Their smiles seemed to have a hint of mockery in it…

However, the current Nangong Xuanhe didn’t have the mood to pay attention to those experts. His mind was already in enough of a mess. Xuanying died? Xuanying was his little brother…

How could he just die like that?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. In the end, Nangong Xuanhe almost unleashed a roar in order to vent his anger.

“Tell me, who did it?” Nangong Xuanhe, whose eyes were bloodshot, roared out as he ruthlessly glared at the guard who delivered the news. The guard was an expert who broke through one of the Supreme-Being’s shackles.

The guard’s body was slightly trembling and shaking after hearing Nangong Xuanhe shout at him. It was obvious how terrifying Nangong Xuanhe was.

The whole Nangong Family was stolen by him. From just this point, it could be seen how fearsome he was.

The guard really didn’t want to be the one to face the enraged Nangong Xuanhe, but…

“It’s a small restaurant… The second elder, Xuanying, disappeared in that restaurant. Other than the second elder, we found the corpses of everyone else.”

That guard spoke as he trembled.

A small restaurant?

Nangong Xuanhe controlled and suppressed his anger as he glared at that guard.

What the hell did he mean by a small restaurant?

Heavenly Mist City actually still had something like a restaurant?

It was impossible. Even if there truly was a restaurant in Heavenly Mist City, it should be one which was barely surviving. How could a restaurant still exist in Heavenly Mist City which had the Multi-Taste Fasting Pill invented by the Nangong Family?

Moreover, that restaurant still had the guts to protect a criminal who was being hunted by his Nangong Family.

This was truly an unforgivable matter.

Flames of anger surged out of Nangong Xuanhe’s body as a stifling aura filled the area. World’s pressure was emitted from Nangong Xuanhe’s body and it spread across the room.

Nangong Xuanhe was an expert who broke through two of the Supreme-Being’s shackles. He was someone who had almost broken through the third shackle and his cultivation was extremely powerful. The aura which he emitted was terrifying. There were countless people who trembled with fear when he released his aura.

However, the Ancient Shura City’s experts were still alright. After all, their cultivation was quite powerful. When facing Nangong Xuanhe’s aura, they only slightly furrowed their brows.

“Great elder Xuanhe, it seems like your excellency is occupied right now. We shall take our leave first. Please remember what you promised us… Let’s meet again tomorrow.”

Misha, who wore a blood-red robe, stood up and calmly spoke to Nangong Xuanhe. After he spoke, he left the hall along with his companion. When he left the hall, the corners of his mouth curled upwards and he looked at the raging Nangong Xuanhe. He lightly chuckled to himself and continued to walk forward.

….

On the following day, in the Cloud Mist Restaurant.

The sky quickly lit up. Countless sun rays penetrated the cracks on the wall of the restaurant. The rays of light shone upon Nangong Wuque, whose face was soaked in blood. It caused his face muscles to spasm involuntarily.

He slowly opened his eyes and the sight before him gradually became clearer in his eyes.

“Where am I? Didn’t I die?”

He suddenly felt an acute pain coming from his waist. He couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air. That old dog, Nangong Xuanying’s attack were really too ruthless.

He was actually kicked heavily in the waist by a man like that. Looks like Nangong Xuanying really wanted his life.

“Um? Where am I?”

Nangong Wuque finally got a clear look of his surroundings. He couldn’t help but squint his eyes in confusion.

He was in a neat and clean boudoir which still had the lingering fragrance of a young maiden.

Nangong Wuque got up and sat on the bed. The injuries on his body had already mostly recovered. Despite that, Nangong Wuque still took out an elixir from his Spatial Spirit Tool and consumed it.

Quietly revolving his true energy, he started to digest the elixir. He started to size up his surroundings in earnest.

His complexion became extremely grave and solemn.

This should be the boudoir of a woman.

Moreover, from the pink coverings which filled the room along with the mesmerizing fragrance which filled the boudoir, Nangong Wuque could guess that this boudoir belonged to an extremely beautiful and intelligent woman.

However, he had no idea whose boudoir this was.

Nangong Wuque clearly remembered that when he fainted, he was outside Owner Bu’s restaurant.

Was this… Was this Owner Bu’s boudoir?

Hiss! Hiss!

Nangong Wuque sucked in a breath of cold air and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Did this Owner Bu possess the heart of a young maiden? Nangong Wuque felt as though he shouldn’t judge people by their appearance any longer.

An image of Bu Fang wearing a solemn face sitting on this pink bed appeared in Nangong Wuque’s mind…

This weird scene appeared in his mind. The strange atmosphere cause Nangong Wuque’s body to shudder involuntarily.

When Nangong Wuque was letting his imagination run wild, the door of the boudoir suddenly opened.

A person slowly walked into the boudoir… It was precisely Bu Fang. Right now, in Nangong Wuque’s mind, Bu Fang seemed quite weird.

“Did you wake up?” Bu Fang calmly asked him.

Nangong Wuque widened his eyes and repeatedly nodded at Bu Fang. However, he quietly took a step back.

Bu Fang was somewhat confused by Nangong Wuque’s actions. He felt as though there was something wrong with Nangong Wuque. Did his brain suffer some shock when Nangong Xuanying kicked his waist? Was his brain spoilt right now?

However, Bu Fang still felt as though something was amiss…

“Who cares. Since you are awake now, hurry up and go down… I have something I need to discuss with you.” Bu Fang spoke as he looked at Nangong Wuque.

After he was done speaking, Bu Fang turned around and left the boudoir.

Nangong Wuque who was leaning against the corner of the boudoir, let out a long breath after he saw Bu Fang leave. He felt extremely stifled. He would never have imagined that Owner Bu was such a person.

After looking for some water in the boudoir, Nangong Wuque used it to clean his body. After he was finished, he walked out of the boudoir with his upper body still stark naked. It was slightly awkward for him as he didn’t prepare any clothing in his Spatial Spirit Tool.

However, the moment he left the boudoir, Bu Fang threw a set of clothes at him.

The clothes were loosely fitted and after Nangong Wuque put them on, a huge portion of his chest was exposed. His fair and white skin was revealed to Bu Fang.

Nangong Wuque held his breath as he carefully and cautiously looked at Bu Fang. He was extremely vigilant and on guard.

Bu Fang had an odd look on his face and it seemed as though he found Nangong Wuque’s gaze to be quite weird.

“What’s up?” Bu Fang calmly asked.

“Noth… Nothing.” Nangong Wuque straightened his neck in an instant as he replied Bu Fang. His eyes were open wide as he stared at Bu Fang’s face.

“If it’s nothing, let’s go down.” Bu Fang didn’t bother with Nangong Wuque any longer. He stopped paying attention to him and directly went to the kitchen.

In a flash, Bu Fang’s body disappeared.

Nangong Wuque took a deep breath. He was still wearing the gown which Bu Fang had thrown to him. His chest was exposed to the rest of the world as he went downstairs.

The moment he reached downstairs, a fragrance came out of the kitchen.

The fragrance which was emitted from the kitchen was extremely rich. When the smell entered Nangong Wuque’s nose, his heart slightly shuddered. Was this the fragrance of the Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup?

Just like what he expected, when Nangong Wuque walked into the dining room, he found a bowl of Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup sitting on a table.

“Eat it. This Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup should be able to allow you to recover quickly. All of your injuries would be healed in no time. However, you have to pay for this bowl of Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup,” Bu Fang said.

Nangong Wuque hurriedly nodded and went over to the table. Sitting down, he quickly started eating the Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup with big mouthfuls.

As a rich aroma filled the store, Nangong Wuque wolfed down the whole bowl of Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup. Oil continuously dripped down the side of his mouth.

Bu Fang pulled a chair and sat beside Nangong Wuque as he fixed his gaze on Nangong Wuque’s face.

That gaze….

Nangong Wuque’s body stiffened his head quickly turned around to look at Bu Fang. He took a deep breath and his gaze became extremely vigilant.

“Owner Bu… Why are you looking at me like this?”

Nangong Wuque swallowed a chicken wing which was in his mouth as he questioned Bu Fang.

“Doesn’t your Nangong Family have a quota for entering that secret realm?” Bu Fang asked with a serious expression on his face.

Nangong Wuque was taken aback by Bu Fang’s question. He didn’t expect that Bu Fang would ask such a question. It was completely different from what he had expected.

“We obviously have it… The Nangong Family is one of the big and respected families in Heavenly Mist City. We have control over the teleportation array to the secret realm. Thus, of course we have a quota for entering the secret realm. However, we only have two quotas and both of the quotas belongs to the family’s patriarch. He is the one who manages the two quotas.” Nangong Wuque sighed and replied Bu Fang.

A feeling of grief welled up in his heart when he talked about the Nangong Family.

“I need a quota to enter the secret realm,” Bu Fang earnestly said.

Pff!

Nangong Wuque who was still overwhelmed by grief almost spat out the chicken meat in his mouth when he heard what Bu Fang said.

“Owner Bu… Don’t go looking for trouble, your cultivation is too weak.” Nangong Wuque was dumbfounded and he quickly advised Bu Fang.

The people who were able to enter the secret realm were at the very least experts who had reached the Divine Realm. They were experts who broke through at least one of the Supreme-Being’s shackles.

An eighth grade War-God like Bu Fang didn’t have the qualifications to enter the secret realm. With his cultivation, what could Bu Fang possible accomplish even if he entered the secret realm?

“Aren’t you the successor of the Nangong Family? Since your family has two quotas, take me in with you,” Bu Fang said.

Nangong Wuque drank a mouthful of the broth before taking in a deep breath. He firmly shook his head.

“That is out of the question. I won’t let you throw your life away. Since you saved my life, that old dog, Nangong Xuanhe, probably has a grudge against you. If you enter the secret realm along with me… That old dog will surely not let you off. Moreover, your cultivation is truly too weak.”

Bu Fang slightly furrowed his brows. He was surprised when he saw Nangong Wuque’s extremely firm stand when he refused to bring him into the secret realm.

If it wasn’t because the system issued a mission, Bu Fang wouldn’t want to go into that secret realm at all.

With his lazy disposition, Bu Fang would much rather pull a chair and sit in front of the store as he basked in the sun. That would be much more comfortable than entering the secret realm.

“Temporary Mission: Enter the Cloud Sea Secret Realm and pick the Heaven Grade Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup’s ingredient. Pick the spirit herb, ‘Dragonification Bone Grass’. Mission reward: Twenty percent increase in your vitality conversion ratio.”

This was the mission issued by the system the day before. The system issued the mission the moment Bu Fang threw Nangong Wuque into Yang Meiji’s boudoir.

“Is there a strength requirement for entering the secret realm?” Bu Fang furrowed his brows.

“Of course there is no such thing. I’m just afraid that you will meet with a mishap when you enter the secret realm.” At this point, Nangong Wuque had already calmed down. He replied Bu Fang helplessly.

He would definitely go to the secret realm. However, he did not have to bring Owner Bu with him.

After most of his injuries were recovered, he would go and retrieve the quotas which belonged to him.

Since the Nangong Family’s patriarch was already dead, as the successor of the Nangong Family, the quota for entering the secret realm naturally belonged to him.

Those were things which belonged to him.

“So, everything will be fine as long as I am strong enough?” Bu Fang expressionlessly looked at Nangong Wuque. The latter was slightly afraid when he looked at Bu Fang.

When Bu Fang saw Nangong Wuque nod his head, the corners of Bu Fang’s mouth curled upwards.

“Pay for this Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup,” Bu Fang stood up and said.

Nangong Wuque was shocked. Was Owner Bu going to fall out with him?

He wasn’t done eating yet…

However, Nangong Wuque wasn’t bothered by Bu Fang’s request. Nangong Wuque didn’t have much, but he had lots of crystals. Most of what he brought with him were crystals. He brought a large stack of them in order to eat Bu Fang’s dishes. As such, he was able to directly pay Bu Fang ten thousand crystals for the Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup.

After Bu Fang took those ten thousand crystals, the system’s voice resounded in his mind.

“Congratulation. The Host has reached the set amount of turnover. The promotion will start now.”
