‘What are these things?’
The clouded eyes of the black-robed man widened suddenly. Looking at the bones scattered on the ground, the corner of his mouth twitched violently. He could sense that the terrifying aura in these bones belonged to a Blood Beast King, so there was no doubt that they were the bones of a Blood Beast King.
Why would this Demigod possess the bones of a Blood Beast King? This meant that he probably killed one and even ate it, as there was still some meat left on the bones…
“Where did you find these bones?” asked the old man as he stared at Bu Fang, his aura suddenly changing. A dreadful pressure froze the surrounding space, turning it as hard as crystals. Everything was suppressed, and the frozen space seemed to crush Bu Fang’s body.
Summer’s expression changed dramatically. She did not expect that this gatekeeper would not believe Bu Fang. “I can vouch for it that Bu Fang killed this Blood Phoenix. I saw it with my own eyes,” she said hurriedly.
“Dark Blood Phoenix?” The gatekeeper’s eyes narrowed. “The Dark Blood Phoenix that ranks ninth on the Blood Beast King List? Even ordinary high-grade God Kings would suffer if they encounter this phoenix, not to mention a Demigod. One of you is a mid-grade God King, and the other is just a Demigod… How are you guys capable of killing her?”
The old man’s aura fluctuated.
“I don’t like falsehoods… So get out of here, both of you!”
His terrifying aura suddenly boiled up as if to shatter heaven and earth. At the same time, the Law of Space quickly gathered and materialized into a transparent palm in midair, slapping toward Summer and Bu Fang.
Summer’s face turned unsightly. She never thought that the old man would make a move on them without giving them a chance to explain!
Bu Fang frowned and looked icily at the old man. As the palm continued to approach, he sighed lightly and shook his hand. His aura immediately emanated from his body while a Wheel of Law emerged over his head.
“Oh? You comprehended the Law of Space as well? Unfortunately, it can’t be the reason for you to be arrogant…” The black-robed man’s expression did not change, and he still slapped his palm down.
Bu Fang clasped his hands behind his back, his Vermilion Robe flapping noisily. With a rumble, another Wheel of Law appeared.
The old man’s expression changed at last—he looked both stunned and in doubt. “A Demigod who comprehended two supreme Laws of the Universe? There is actually an existence comparable to the Crown Prince in this world?”
He took a deep breath. At this moment, he began to waver a little. With the talent that Bu Fang had shown, he could enter the City of God Kings. He was in a tough spot right now. However, since he had said that he would expel them, he thought he might as well keep his word.
The old man’s eyes became cloudy again. As his divine sense surged, the palm materialized of the Law of Space continued to move forward to slap Bu Fang away. However, the power it contained did become much lesser. The old man was very appreciative of geniuses.
“For the sake that you have comprehended two supreme Laws of the Universe, I will not punish you. Leave now, cultivate hard, and fight for the rise of our people,” the gatekeeper said, his voice old.
In midair, the corners of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched slightly. He made no attempt to dodge the approaching palm. Instead, he just stood where he was, watching the gatekeeper sitting in front of the city gate.
“A Demigod who comprehended two supreme Laws of the Universe? I’m sorry… I’ve already gone beyond that,” Bu Fang said.
As soon as he finished speaking, another Wheel of Law appeared above his head. A destructive aura spread out immediately, causing the surrounding void to tremble.
The gatekeeper’s expression changed dramatically. He jumped to his feet and looked at Bu Fang in disbelief.
“One… two… three… My eyes didn’t deceive me! These really are three supreme Laws of the Universe! Comprehending three supreme Laws at the Demigod realm… No one has ever done this before! This is someone who would most likely become a Heavengod!”
He was trembling with excitement. The next moment, the palm materialized by the Law of Space disappeared.
Bu Fang stood where he was. The Wheels of Law hovered around him, causing his aura to surge. He could feel that his aura had become even more powerful than before.
Because the turnover target had not been reached, Bu Fang had not been able to break through to the God realm. However, he reckoned that when he became a God, he would have few rivals in the whole divine dynasty. He could even fight against the Divine Emperor!
The old man stood in front of the floating city. “Rare, it’s too rare… My eyes had failed me this time. Three supreme Laws of the Universe… This is unbelievable!” he said. “The gates of the City of God Kings are open for you!”
He no longer doubted whether the Blood Phoenix was killed by Bu Fang. Even if he had not killed it, he was still qualified to enter the city. The gatekeeper could not believe that such a genius had appeared in the Xiayi Divine Dynasty, and he did not know if it was a blessing or a curse.
The fortunes of a divine dynasty were fixed. When such a genius appeared, disaster was bound to follow. One could only wonder what this disaster would be.
‘Is it because the Divine Emperor has entered his twilight years that the fortunes of the dynasty have gathered on this young man? That’s possible… Then I can’t afford to offend him.’
Summer was dumbfounded. Looking at the black-robed old man, whose attitude had completely turned different, she realized for the first time Bu Fang’s extraordinary status. After comprehending the three supreme Laws of the Universe, he was already in a very different position. Even the identity of the Lord of Divine Chef Temple was not comparable to his current status.
Bu Fang nodded to the gatekeeper and flew into the City of God Kings with Summer. As they stepped through the gate and entered the city, a figure standing at the other end of the wall was looking at them with a gentle smile.
“Hmm?” Bu Fang and Summer felt a sharp gaze shoot at them. They both turned their heads at the same time. Summer’s pupils constricted when she saw the man.
“Tian Qiu?!”
Her red lips parted slightly in disbelief. Yes, the figure standing under the wall waiting for them was none other than Tian Qiu, who was their teammate not too long ago, a gentleman who was as terrifying as a ferocious beast when his top was blown off.
No, this Tian Qiu was not a man. He was not even a human being!
There was a look of horror in Summer’s eyes.
Bu Fang looked indifferently at Tian Qiu and took a deep breath. Suddenly, his stomach growled. For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
“Eh? Mister Bu, Your Highness…”
A group of people walked out from behind Tian Qiu, their faces filled with surprise.
Bu Fang’s eyebrows pricked up a little when he saw them. These were all his acquaintances. Luo Sanniang was among them, and King Pingyang, King Tianlong, and the emissary group of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty were all here. It turned out that they had already entered the City of God Kings.
Luo Sanniang fluttered like a butterfly to Bu Fang’s side, her eyes gleaming with excitement.
Bu Fang glanced at her and nodded before fixing his eyes on Tian Qiu again. Both he and Summer knew that this Tian Qiu was not a human being, but one that had been transformed by that terrible creature.
“That’s Tian Qiu, a mighty high-grade God King. He saved us in the relic and helped us kill a top Blood Beast King. Otherwise, we all would have died in the mouth of that beast.” Seeing that Bu Fang kept staring at Tian Qiu, King Pingyang laughed and briefly introduced him. He then added, “You know each other, Mister Bu?”
“Not only do we know each other, but we have also been through life and death together…” Bu Fang said.
Tian Qiu smiled gently and nodded at Bu Fang.
“Stay away from that guy… Or you will die without knowing what happened,” Bu Fang said faintly to Luo Sanniang. Then, he put his hands behind him and walked into the city.
That gave Luo Sanniang pause.
Summer glanced at Tian Qiu warily and followed Bu Fang without saying a word.
Why didn’t they expose Tian Qiu on the spot? It was impossible. His appearance was that of a human being. Unless he revealed his secret, Bu Fang’s one-sided story alone could not make a high-grade God King surrender. That was why he only reminded them and did not expose Tian Qiu.
Bu Fang walked over to Tian Qiu, gave him a look, and said, “What a chance that we have been through life and death together… Here, take this pancake. It’s delicious.”
With a shake of his hand, Bu Fang produced an oyster pancake and handed it to Tian Qiu. A strong aroma spread out in an instant.
Tian Qiu’s face froze.
“Haha… Mister Bu’s dishes are rare and delicious. Mister Tian, you’re in for a treat this time,” King Pingyang said with a smile as he patted Tian Qiu’s shoulder.
The corner of Tian Qiu’s mouth twitched.
Luo Sanniang glanced suspiciously at Tian Qiu. Since Bu Fang warned her to be careful of this guy, he should have his reasons. So, she moved away from Tian Qiu and followed Bu Fang.
The Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty’s experts all had mixed looks on their faces, especially Fang Wuji. His defeat to Bu Fang was an eternal pain in his heart. He swore that he would defeat this chef, but that was only possible until he became a God. In the Demigod realm, he had no chance of defeating Bu Fang.
…
The City of God Kings was practically empty. Of course, there were experts in the city, but the numbers were not many. There were no guards and no common people here, only top geniuses and fearsome high-grade God Kings. Most of the time, however, these high-grade God Kings were out looking for opportunities, and this city was just a place for them to rest.
In the sky over the city hung three black stone tables, which were flashing with divine light.
“Those three stone tablets are the iconic features of the City of God Kings. The first one is the Blood Beast King List, which records the ten most powerful Blood Beast Kings in the relic,” Luo Sanniang said with a smile as she came to Bu Fang’s side.
Bu Fang nodded.
“The second tablet is the God King List. Only high-grade God Kings are on the list, and they represented the ten strongest high-grade God Kings in this city. Of course, the Divine Emperor is not included in the list.
“The third one is the Genius List. Those on the list are all descendants of the high-grade God Kings in the relic, and the strongest of them could even fight against high-grade God Kings with the strength of a God! The Crown Prince probably can’t even make it to the top three,” Luo Sanniang said.
It was only when she came here that she realized there were so many geniuses in the relic, who were born and raised here. Because of the harsh living environment and frequent dealing with Blood Beasts, they had all developed amazing skills.
“Mister Bu, you can keep an eye on the Genius List. If you can get to the top of the list, the Divine Emperor will give you a Heavengod’s bone as a reward!” said Luo Sanniang, her eyes lighting up slightly.
In her opinion, Bu Fang should have a chance to get to the top of the list with his strength. After all, he was a genius who had comprehended two supreme Laws of the Universe!
“The Genius List?” Bu Fang paused for a moment, then glanced at Luo Sanniang and shook his head.
Summer, who was standing on the side, also twitched the corners of her mouth. She knew that even the top expert of the Genius List would most likely be killed by Bu Fang in seconds…
“That one is boring… I think this Blood Beast King List is more attractive… If I can eat all the Blood Beast Kings on the list, that would be great,” Bu Fang said, stroking his chin.
Luo Sanniang was struck dumb. “You… What did you say?”
BOOM!
All of a sudden, a scary rumble erupted outside the city. Bu Fang, Luo Sanniang, and the others were stunned, and they turned to look over. In that direction, several badly mutilated God Kings were being chased by a terrifying Blood Beast King, their blood spilling continuously.
“Who killed the Blood Phoenix?! Get out of here now! Otherwise, I will slaughter this city and kill all the humans in the relic!”
A horrible bestial roar echoed out and shook the entire relic.
