The bandits ran as fast as they could with horror on their faces. They could not believe Bu Fang was so strong. It was then that they realized that chefs, who they thought only knew how to brandish kitchen knives and ladles, could possess such formidable fighting strength.
Even their number two, a Demigod who had begun to comprehend the Law, was defeated by this chef. That shocked the bandits and sent them fleeing in panic.
The Demigod was not stupid. After a brief exchange with Bu Fang, he knew at once that this chef’s strength was not what he could defend against. In both physical strength and Laws, this guy was much stronger than him.
The moment his hammer was crushed, the number two of the Misty Mountain realized that Bu Fang was also a Demigod. That filled his heart with fear and greed.
If he could capture and bring a Demigod chef to the Divine Chef Temple, he might be able to get a source gem, which was a concentrated source stone and could help Demigods comprehend Laws and become Gods.
It was a very precious treasure, and it was there in the reward list announced by the Divine Chef Temple! Therefore, the Demigod’s heart was filled with excitement and greed.
Bu Fang was but a Demigod. Their chief, on the other hand, was a God. Once he arrived, Bu Fang would not be able to escape! However, their priority now was to run for their lives.
The Demigod bandit’s strength was very strong, and he ran fast. Like an arrow, he sped out of the village and almost disappeared in the blink of an eye. The other bandits also dispersed in an uproar.
The village head looked worried. The villagers, on the other hand, looked relieved. They had been bullied by these bandits for too long. Now, when they saw the bullies were fleeing in disarray, they felt as if all their pent-up anger had been vented.
Bu Fang was calm. He was toying with the silver Divine flame in his hand. Suddenly, the look in his eyes changed, and his divine sense spread, bringing with it a tremendous burst of pressure and targeting the number two of the Misty Mountain, who was fleeing wildly.
The Demigod bandit kicked the ground and smashed a hole in it as he pushed himself further into the distance. All of a sudden, his face changed dramatically because a silver flame emerged in front of him, hovering quietly in midair. As the flame burned, it bathed him with a scorching heat, which seemed to sear his divine sense.
Without hesitation, he turned and ran in another direction. He wanted to flee the place. However, since he was targeted by Bu Fang’s divine sense, all his attempts were rendered useless. The silver flame transformed into a dragon and wheeled around him, trapping him in place like a chain.
Whitey’s mechanical eyes flashed, and the flags behind it fluttered. The next moment, they flew out and stabbed into the ground in the distance. Then, the spear swept out with a clanging sound, shooting through the air like a roaring silver dragon.
Soon after, one figure after another flew up from the ground, all thrown into the air by the spear. Their faces were full of horror, for they found that they could not use their strength at all! It was as if they had been shackled at this moment!
What kind of monster was that metal lump?
The next moment, the sound of clothes being ripped apart rang out, and the bandits shrieked miserably as they fell to the ground. Every one of them had their clothes torn to pieces and their naked bodies exposed in the blink of an eye. Mortified, they curled up into a ball with horror on their faces.
“How could he bully us like this? How could he strip our clothes?!”
At this moment, the Demigod bandit was brought back as well. He slumped to the ground with a thump, and his forehead was already covered with beads of cold sweat.
He could not understand why the difference between him and the chef was so huge, even though both of them were Demigods. When facing the chef, he had a feeling as though he was as weak as an ant. He was defeated even before he could fight back, and he knew that if the chef wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as flipping a palm!
How could there be such a fearsome Demigod in the world?
Although he was a captive now, the Demigod bandit’s eyes grew much sharper. He had sent a message to his chief. He was glad that the chef did not kill him because once his chief arrived, he would be able to see the chef’s death!
Their chief was a God who had comprehended a complete Law! A God was noble even in the Divine Dynasty and could become an official in the court! No matter how strong this chef was, he was just a Demigod! When a Demigod faced a real God, the ending could be easily predicted!
Bu Fang flicked his fingers, and a silver flaming dragon immediately darted forward and bound up the naked bandits.
Leaning on his staff, the old village head came up to him with a worried look.
“You better leave now, young man! These bandits come from the Misty Mountain, and their chief is a God! If you stay here, you will certainly be punished by that God!” said the village head with a bitter look. He never thought things would end up like this.
But Bu Fang shook his head and told the village head not to worry. After that, he took out another Oyster Pancake and ate it. The delicious flavor filled his mouth and made him feel extremely comfortable as energy kept being produced in him, rapidly recovering his strength.
He was about to face a God, so he must remain in his best form.
While waiting, Bu Fang ate the Oyster Pancake and asked the village head, “Village head, how far is it from here to the capital of Xiayi Divine Dynasty?”
The village head leaned on his staff and sat down. He sniffed the pancake’s aroma, swallowed, then said, “We are at the edge of the great world where Xiayi Divine Dynasty is located. This place is very far from the capital…
“But I know that the chefs in our village all went to the nearest major city first before they took the Divine Chef Temple’s warships to the capital.
“Of course… the bandits of the Misty Mountain have their warships too, and they have ways to travel to the capital,” added the old man.
Bu Fang fell silent. He had to go to the capital of Xiayi Divine Dynasty, but taking the Divine Chef Temple’s warship seemed a little troublesome and was not as simple as the second option. To him, taking the bandits’ warship to the capital was much easier.
At the thought of that, the corners of Bu Fang’s lips curved upward, and a playful look came over his face. He turned and glanced meaningfully at the Demigod bandit, who was stripped naked and bound up at the center of the village.
The number two of the Misty Mountain felt a shiver run down his back. He raised his head, and his eyes met with Bu Fang’s. His pupils constricted in an instant.
‘Why is this chef capturing us instead of killing us? What does he want? Why is he looking at me like that? Is he attracted by my handsomeness?!’
The Demigod was worried, but he soon calmed down because he knew his chief was about to arrive! As long as his chef was here, this chef would become their captive!
Sure enough, it did not take long for the sky over the village to change color. A dark cloud rumbled over from a distance, bringing with it a terrible pressure that pressed on everyone and made breathing difficult. It was divine pressure, which was purer and more terrifying than that of a Demigod!
The next moment, the pounding of hooves could be heard as a team of dragon-scaled horses galloped down from a distant mountain as fast as lightning, and before long, they were outside the village, emanating terrible auras. Men jumped off the horses.
Rumble!
In the sky, a figure approached the village, taking one step at a time. He was clad in a wild-looking robe, and the Power of Law swirled around him. Hovering over the village, he glanced sharply at the villagers.
This was the chief of the Misty Mountain, a legendary bandit and the only God of the Misty Mountain.
The bandits captured by Bu Fang became excited in an instant, and their eyes were full of hope. Their number two, the Demigod bandit, was so excited that all his muscles twitched. Looking fiercely at Bu Fang, he thought to himself, ‘This arrogant chef is finished!’
As soon as the bandit chief arrived, he saw the bandits bound up at the center of the village. His face turned cold immediately.
“How dare you, a tiny village, do this to my men? You’re courting death!” he said in a cruel voice and waved his hand.
At the gesture, the experts surrounding the village immediately raised their bows, pulled the strings, and released arrows toward the panicked villagers. If these arrows hit their targets, the whole village would be flooded with blood!
The old village head was shaking, and his face was full of panic. The villagers were trembling as well. Was their village going to be slaughtered by these bandits, just like the other villages?
Bu Fang stood up. His face had become cold and grave. The arrows raining down from all directions were tearing at his mental force.
‘They want to slaughter all the villagers? What a bunch of bullies,’ he thought to himself.
At this moment, the corporeal form of his divine sense, which sat cross-legged in his spirit sea, flicked open its eyes. Then, his divine sense poured out of him and spread like ripples. The arrows stopped in midair immediately, and then broke and shattered into pieces by the divine sense.
The chief fixed his eyes at Bu Fang. ‘It looks like this guy is the reason why the village dares to fight back… It turns out that they have found themselves a Demigod. A pity that a Demigod is nothing in front of me!’
Rumble!
His aura exploded out like a volcano as he walked down from the sky, taking one step at a time. Like a mountain, his divine pressure pressed on Bu Fang’s body, trying to push him to his knees.
As a God, if he could not even suppress a Demigod, he would be worthless.
“How dare a mere Demigod offend my Misty Mountain and capture my men? Die now!”
The chief’s eyes burst into light, and Runes of Law wheeled around him as a terrible force smashed down toward Bu Fang!
