Chapter 1179 Is the Realm Lord Trying to Mess Things Up?

Making tea was a complicated process.

Bu Fang was not very familiar with it, but he had his own way of making tea.

He placed the tea leaves into the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. He didn’t add oil into the wok because he just wanted to dry the leaves.

As soon as the leaves touched the hot wok, the water contained in them began to evaporate. Then, he began to rub and stir them with his palms, causing the fragrance of the tea leaves to diffuse.

The rich tea aroma contained a fresh taste as if it could freshen one’s spirit.

After stirring for not too long, Bu Fang scooped out the tea leaves, which had turned into tiny strips. The next moment, a white flame rose from his palm and burned slowly.

He made the leaves float over the flame. Heated by the high temperature, the remaining water in them evaporated instantly.

Finally, he took out a little, round porcelain bowl and placed these dried tea leaves into it, one at a time. When he was done, he covered the bowl with a lid.

These tea leaves looked amazing, with bright green on the front side and pale blue on the back. There was no need for Bu Fang to process them further.

Bu Fang took out one leaf and put away the bowl.

After frying and toasting, the tea leaf had shrunk into a small strip, with a crystal clear appearance that looked like glass. It was extremely gorgeous and beautiful.

He then produced a cup specially used for making tea, put the leaf into it, and poured some boiled Spring of Life into the cup.

A burst of hot air went into the cup first, making the tea leaf spin. The instant the boiling Spring of Life touched the leaf, it turned bright green.

Bu Fang closed the lid. After letting the tea brew for a few minutes, he removed the lid, brought it over his nose, and sniffed at the tea aroma.

A faint but soul-stirring fragrance squeezed into his nostrils and aroused his taste buds, causing Bu Fang to be amazed. This Nine Revolution Great Path Tea didn’t require washing as ordinary tea did, and the first round of tea was already excellent.

A rich tea aroma permeated the air. On the tea’s surface, some tiny bubbles were floating as the leaf spun in the water.

Bu Fang held the teacup with one hand and the lid with the other. He gently blew on it, scattering the straight, rising steam while pushing the bubbles away with the lid.

He took a whiff again and slowly shook his head.

The refreshing tea aroma rushed into his nostrils.

Finally, he took a small sip. The boiling hot tea flowed through his lips into his mouth.

The fragrance of tea instantly exploded in his mouth, giving him an indescribable pleasure.

Bu Fang closed his eyes as he felt the aroma swirl in his mouth and rush into his nose. With a gulp, he swallowed the tea. It flowed through his throat and fell into his stomach.

Immediately, the tea seemed to have exploded, causing radiance to keep spreading out from Bu Fang’s stomach.

A wave of formless fluctuation instantly filled his whole body, making him feel extremely relaxed. Even then, the mental force in his spirit sea boiled as if it was strengthened.

This Nine Revolution Great Path Tea actually acted on his mental force!

Bu Fang narrowed his eyes, smacked his lips, and took another sip of tea.

This tea could not be compared with wine. Wine was mellow, while the tea’s aroma needed to be carefully savored.

He took another sip, and he could feel that his mental force seemed to be getting fuller. If he weren’t wrong, this Nine Revolution Great Path Tea should have the effect of restoring mental force.

The effect immediately brightened his eyes.

In the future, after using a Perishing Pot, he could take a sip of Nine Revolution Great Path Tea, and then he would be able to stand up again and use another Perishing Pot.

Bu Fang was delighted. Holding the teacup and savoring the tea aroma, he walked out of the kitchen.

The bell rang as the curtain was lifted.

At the moment, the tables around the kitchen door were already fully occupied by diners.

When they saw Bu Fang, they greeted him.

Bu Fang nodded, told them to enjoy their meals and drinks, then walked out of the restaurant. He pulled over a chair and sat on it, taking a break and sipping tea.

The restaurant continued to operate.

Bu Fang had put Xixi in charge of the restaurant’s operation.

The little girl’s cooking skills were improving fast. Perhaps because her talent was too good that her cooking skills now were no weaker than those of ordinary First Grade Immortal Chefs.

After today’s business, Bu Fang planned to take Xixi to test her cooking skills. In the meantime, he took this chance to rest while waiting for her.

Soon, the day’s business hours were over.

At some point in time, Xixi had come to Bu Fang’s side. He was in a daze, still holding the empty teacup.

“Oh, it’s over?” Bu Fang came to his senses and gave Xixi a look.

Xixi nodded repeatedly.

Bu Fang rose to his feet, put away the teacup, and stretched. His spirit, soul, and energy seemed to wake up at this moment.

He rubbed Xixi’s head. In the little girl’s expectant gaze, he grinned and said, “Come, let’s go and get our cooking skills assessed.”

When Xixi heard that, she clenched her fists in excitement.

Becoming an immortal chef had always been her first dream, and her second dream was to become an amazing immortal chef like Teacher Bu.

After closing the door, Bu Fang took Xixi by the hand and left the restaurant.

They walked down the street in the Immortal Cooking Realm, their shadows stretched long by the evening sun. The familiar street was still as lively as before.

The people all knew Bu Fang, and they greeted him as he passed.

Bu Fang smiled and nodded at these people.

The grade assessment of chefs was to be conducted at Immortal Kitchen Pavilion.

Bu Fang remembered that he had made quite a stir when he first came to Immortal Kitchen Pavilion. Now, he was here again, and this time, he was about to take a higher grade chef test.

Many things had happened in the Immortal Cooking Realm between his first and second visit.

Xixi was curious about everything. This was her first visit to Immortal Kitchen Pavilion, so she flinched and hid by Bu Fang’s side.

The people in Immortal Kitchen Pavilion naturally knew Bu Fang.

Although Mu Liuer no longer helped in Immortal Kitchen Pavilion, what Bu Fang did when he was here had made everyone remember him.

As soon as he stepped into Immortal Kitchen Pavilion, many people walked over and bowed respectfully to him.

With Bu Fang’s current cooking skills, he deserved their respect. Whether it was his status as the champion of the Immortal Chef Tournament or his deeds of saving the Immortal Cooking Realm from destruction, he deserved respect from others.

“This is my apprentice. This is her first time to take the First Grade Immortal Chef test. Show her the way,” Bu Fang glanced at an expert of Immortal Kitchen Pavilion and said.

The expert nodded respectfully.

“Xixi, don’t be nervous and take it easy. With your cooking skills, becoming a First Grade Immortal Chef is a piece of cake,” Bu Fang said, rubbing the little girl’s head.

The experts of Immortal Kitchen Pavilion around them were speechless. Bu Fang was, indeed, worthy of being called the Great Demon King. He was so domineering!

In their eyes, Xixi was just a little girl of seven or eight years old, so her attempt to take the test was merely a formality. It was not that easy to become a First Grade Immortal Chef.

In the Immortal Cooking Realm’s records, the youngest First Grade Immortal Chef was a ten-year-old genius.

Xixi appeared to be only seven or eight years old. Was she trying to break the record?

Even if she did, it would not be as easy as a piece of cake… After all, she was just a child.

Foxy was curled up on Bu Fang’s shoulder, fast asleep.

Xixi still seemed a little nervous.

Bu Fang took Foxy off his shoulder and placed her in Xixi’s arms.

“Let Foxy accompany you, so you won’t be nervous… Go now. We’ll take the tests at the same time. When we get back, I’ll cook you a meal.” Bu Fang rubbed Xixi’s head and smiled.

Xixi nodded, looking much relaxed now. After that, while stroking Foxy’s head, she left with the expert.

With the resurrection of the Immortal Tree and the continuous recovery of the Immortal Cooking Realm, Immortal Kitchen Pavilion had become livelier than before.

Perhaps as a result of the recovery of the Will of the Great Path, more and more people were now taking immortal chef tests, and their ages were getting younger and younger.

The Immortal Cooking Realm’s golden age seemed to be coming.

With just a glance, Bu Fang already saw many children who were just slightly older than Xixi stand together, waiting to be assessed.

A service crew of Immortal Kitchen Pavilion led the way ahead, his body a little stiff. After all, he was facing the Great Demon King of the Immortal Cooking Realm…

“Owner Bu, what test do you wish to take? Is it for the Second Grade?” the crew asked.

Bu Fang clasped his hands behind his back and walked beside the man. “I guess so. I’ll take the Second Grade test first.”

The crew was speechless.

The records of Bu Fang becoming a First Grade Immortal Chef was still here. It had only been about half a year, and now, he was planning to take the Second Grade test. He truly was the Great Demon King.

“Alright, please come with me. The Pavilion Master, Executives, City Lords, and the Realm Lord are all waiting for you.”

The crew didn’t speak again but led the way. A short while later, he brought Bu Fang into a luxurious room.

With a creak, the door was pushed open, and Bu Fang stepped through it.

All eyes in the room immediately turned and rested on his face. The next moment, the sound of gasping filled the whole room.

“This man looks… familiar.”

“He’s the Great Demon King! He’s here to take the Second Grade test as well? This is going to be interesting!”

“There’s a lot of geniuses and monsters taking the Second Grade test nowadays…”

Voices rang out in the room. Many people were whispering to each other as they looked at Bu Fang, their hearts filled with mixed emotions such as respect, reverence, and doubt…

After reorganizing, today’s Immortal Cooking Realm had only one Immortal Kitchen Pavilion, which was the one in the first layer.

All the geniuses in the whole Immortal Cooking Realm would take their tests here as the Immortal Kitchen Pavilions in the other layers were abolished. As a result, many geniuses had gathered in the first layer.

All geniuses were proud of themselves. They knew Bu Fang was the Great Demon King and the champion of the Immortal Chef Tournament. But what’s the big deal with that?

He still had to take the Second Grade test.

If they could defeat the Great Demon King in the test, their names would be sung all over the Immortal Cooking Realm!

This was what made these geniuses excited.

Bu Fang shoved his hands into his pockets, ignoring the gazes filled with all kinds of emotions.

He glanced about and rested his eyes in the distance. There, Realm Lord Di Tai reclined lazily in a chair, while Gongshu Baiguang stood respectfully next to him.

He then turned his eyes to Meng Qi, who wore an immortal robe and looked like a fairy. Now, she was not only the city lord of the third layer but also the Pavilion Master of the Immortal Kitchen Pavilion.

Meng Qi kept a faint smile on her face even as many people threw adoring glances at her. As if sensing Bu Fang’s gaze, she looked in his direction and nodded gently.

“The Immortal Cooking Realm has just gone through an ordeal. Now that the ordeal has passed, the realm will surely shine again. The Immortal Tree has revived, and immortal energy has returned, causing countless geniuses to awaken. You are the future and hope of the Immortal Cooking Realm. This test will determine your future.”

As the city lord, Gongshu Baiguang was the host of this test.

Nowadays, the Immortal Chef test was only held once a month, so everyone took it very seriously.

The contestants who took part in the test couldn’t help getting nervous.

“There are ten people taking the Second Grade test this time. The test will have a theme, and you have to cook according to it. Your dishes will be assessed by the Immortal Cooking Realm’s Will of the Great Path, and the result will determine the result of your test. It is fair, just, and transparent,” said Gongshu Baiguang.

“The test will begin now, and the Realm Lord will announce the theme.”

All eyes immediately turned to Realm Lord Di Tai.

Realm Lord Di Tai flipped his golden hair. With a charming smile on his handsome face, he glanced around and said, “Ah… The Second Grade test is finally here. I’m full of expectations…”

When he had finished, he gave Bu Fang a deep look. The next moment, a faint smile brushed his lips, and a playful look flashed in his eyes.

“I’ve already decided on the theme of this Second Grade test a month ago…”

“The theme is… Well… It is… Dried Pot.”

The moment Realm Lord Di Tai finished speaking, the whole audience froze. The next moment, an uproar broke out.

Meng Qi rolled her eyes, speechless.

Bu Fang, on the other hand, twitched the corner of his mouth as he gave the triumphant-looking Realm Lord Di Tai a glance.

‘Is this guy trying to mess things up?’ he thought.
