The air became quieter at this moment. On the ground, all the people were struck dumb. Their mouths were wide open, and they looked horrified as they stared blankly at the empty ground. A moment ago, four Immortals stood there, but Bu Fang had just lightly waved a finger, and they were gone.
‘What kind of means is that? How could it kill four Immortals as easily as wiping away dust? Who exactly is… Senior?!’
Chief Luo’s legs were shaking. Although he had seen a lot of things, he still found it hard to believe. He could not recognize who Bu Fang was. How could someone be so good at cooking and so fearsome in fighting at the same time?
When he met Bu Fang for the first time, Chief Luo thought he was just an ordinary man. It turned out that he was wrong. Bu Fang was not an ordinary man, but a terrible existence with superior fighting prowess.
Xiao Ai clenched her fist excitedly. She did not like those Immortals, who looked at them as if they were ants. That arrogant gaze filled her with distaste. Meanwhile, her admiration for Bu Fang grew. “Senior is so handsome!”
After retracting his aura, Bu Fang descended from the sky and landed on the ground. His expression remained unchanged as if killing Immortals were no different from wiping away dust to him. His nonchalant attitude made everyone speechless.
“Senior…” Like Xiao Ai, Chief Luo also called Bu Fang that. With Bu Fang’s current strength, he deserved that title. In his opinion, Bu Fang was likely to be an ancient being crawled out of somewhere. Otherwise, how could he possess this kind of fighting prowess?
In today’s era when spiritual energy had recovered and the world was changing, no superhuman could cause a great storm. Only ancient beings like Bu Fang could shake the world.
Bu Fang clasped his hands behind his back. His Vermilion Robe looked plain and ordinary now. Glancing at Chief Luo, who looked feverish and nervous, he said, “Those so-called Immortals did not come with good intentions. You guys better be careful…”
Chief Luo knew that already. Those Immortals had fought wantonly in the city and had no regard for human lives, and that filled him with anger.
Bu Fang nodded. That was all he wanted to say. As for what Chief Luo would do, that was not his concern. The strength of those Immortals was far greater than the mortals present. If they acted without scruples, it would be a disaster for the whole world.
“Senior! Are you going to look for the other Divine Artifacts?!”
Just as Bu Fang was about to turn and leave, Xiao Ai, with her eyes gleaming, suddenly called out. Bu Fang paused. He knew that the Divine Artifacts she mentioned were the God of Cooking Sets.
The God of Cooking Sets’ Artifact Spirits were at different places of the world. For example, the Vermilion Robe was found in the South Sea. With the seals broken now, it was likely that the other God of Cooking Sets had fallen into the hands of various powers.
Bu Fang could not sit idly by and do nothing as they fell into others’ hands. Although those powers could not use the God of Cooking Sets as only he could use them, he still felt it was best for him to find them as quickly as possible.
“Our State Supernatural Agency has the most accurate intelligence about these Divine Artifacts!” Xiao Ai said, her eyes still gleaming.
“Oh?” Bu Fang raised his eyebrows.
Chief Luo realized what Xiao Ai was trying to achieve now. She wanted to bring Bu Fang to their side. He would not refuse that, of course.
“Yes! Senior, our State Supernatural Agency has the best equipment and a world-class intelligence network. We can get all the news about the Divine Artifacts!”
Chief Luo nodded repeatedly.
Bu Fang considered. Now that the Vermilion Bird had returned, he could clearly sense the aura and locations of the other God of Cooking Sets. However, with the State Supernatural Agency’s help, he might be able to better learn the powers that had acquired them.
Most importantly, like the Vermilion Bird, the other Artifact Spirits might have taken human form as well. He was good at locating the God of Cooking Sets, but he would need help in finding people. Besides, he needed to locate Nethery’s whereabouts.
Bu Fang decided that it would be easier to find them with the State Supernatural Agency’s help. So, he did not reject the offer.
Chief Luo and Xiao Ai became excited when they saw that Bu Fang did not reject them.
Just when they were about to leave, Bu Fang, with half of his body stepped into the armored vehicle, frowned and looked up at the sky. He had killed four Immortals, and now someone was here to find out what had happened.
Chief Luo and the others also looked up at the sky, then they saw a disheveled old man in a daoist robe flying toward them on a black panther.
Hovering in the sky, the old man’s eyes flickered brightly. With just one glance, he saw Bu Fang on the ground. He came down, stopped just above Bu Fang and the others, then grinned, revealing a mouth of crooked teeth.
“Wait a minute… fellow Daoist,” the old Daoist said with a smile. However, the smile on his face looked somewhat fake.
Bu Fang narrowed his eyes. He could sense that the old man’s strength was very strong, at least stronger than the Immortals he had killed just now. ‘Is he a Heaven Immortal?’
“An old Daoist riding a panther? Is he… the famous Shen Gongbao in the myths?!” Chief Luo was knowledgeable. In fact, many superhumans were ordered by the agency to study ancient legends and myths. The recovery of spiritual energy made them realize that those ancient Immortals did exist.
“Shen Gongbao?” Bu Fang paused. He knew the guy, of course. He heard the fellow was quite famous in legends.
“Fellow Daoist… Have you seen four Immortals coming this way?” Shen Gongbao, riding on the black panther, narrowed his eyes. The beast under him also narrowed its eyes. The man and the beast were quite in sync.
Shen Gongbao was a cautious man. The Sect Leader had sent him here to find out the reason why the Immortal Exterminating Sword’s clone was destroyed, but he did not act recklessly. From the fact that the sword was destroyed, he knew that the enemy was not a weakling.
“Four Immortals?” The corners of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched slightly. “I saw them, and I’ve killed them with my finger,” he said, looking at Shen Gongbao.
In the sky, Shen Gongbao narrowed his eyes, his beard waving in the wind. He could not believe there was someone who could bluff better than he did. “Are you kidding me? If you did see them, please tell me where they are now… Otherwise, I fear that you cannot withstand the Sect Leader’s wrath.” Riding on the panther, the smile on his face gradually faded away.
“Oh… You have a good panther.” Bu Fang squinted at the beast under Shen Gongbao.
The panther, who narrowed its eyes like its master, shuddered suddenly.
“I’ve told you that I’ve killed them with my finger. You can believe it or not. If the Sect Leader blames you, ask him to come and see me in person…” Bu Fang said with an expressionless face.
“What an arrogant young man…” Shen Gongbao was shocked. “Do you know who the Sect Leader is? He will never come and see an evil man like you in person!”
The bright light that had burst out from here terrified Shen Gongbao. Now it seemed that perhaps this young man really did kill them. ‘Why is he so confident? Looks like this evil man does have some tricks up his sleeve!’ The old Daoist focused his eyes. ‘Let’s see what he’s capable of?’
Shen Gongbao chuckled, then he gave the black panther under him a slap. A black aura immediately spread as the panther opened its mouth and roared. The next moment, countless shadows leaped out from the black panther’s body, all charging at Bu Fang to rip him to pieces.
Each of these panthers was real, and they were fierce. This was one of Shen Gongbao’s best offensive tricks. As a Heaven Immortal, he was very strong. At least, he was stronger than the four Immortals.
However, Chief Luo, Xiao Ai, and the others did not look worried at all. Even the common people showed no sign of panic. Bu Fang was too strong. He had killed four Immortals with a wave of his finger, so how would he be afraid of Shen Gongbao?
Bu Fang’s face was cold. He did not know who was behind Shen Gongbao and the few Immortals. ‘They kept mentioning the Sect Leader… Who is this Sect Leader?’ However, he was not too worried. No matter who this Sect Leader was, if he dared to provoke him, he would blow him apart with one punch!
Facing the thousands of black panthers that came swooping down at him, Bu Fang took a deep breath and raised his fist. As his divine power began to course through him, the world trembled and rumbled. The next moment, he waved his Taotie Arm and threw out the fist.
Shen Gongbao’s expression changed in an instant. In just a flash, all the black panthers were blown apart! The punch had destroyed everything, and it continued to approach him!
“Aiyo!” Taken aback, Shen Gongbao slapped the panther on the head. Then, his Daoist robe left him and turned into a huge piece of cloth that blotted out the sky to fend off Bu Fang’s punch. However, the punch ripped the cloth to strips effortlessly.
In the end, the punch struck the old Daoist, and he coughed up some blood. Not daring to say another word, he turned and sped away on the panther, seriously wounded. If he stayed here, he might be killed.
“Oh?” Bu Fang gave a surprised cry as he watched the naked Shen Gongbao flee on the panther. He did not expect the old Daoist to survive his punch. How could an ordinary Heaven Immortal resist his punch, even though he was not at his peak form now?
Of course, Bu Fang did not really care. If truth be told, he did not put any strength in that punch.
A look of regret crossed the faces of Chief Luo and Xiao Ai. They felt a little disappointed that Bu Fang’s punch did not kill Shen Gongbao. Of course, Bu Fang had no idea why they felt that way.
“Let’s go,” Bu Fang told Chief Luo and others.
Accompanied by the rumble of the engine, the armored vehicle brought Bu Fang away, heading toward the secret base outside the city where the State Supernatural Agency’s Jiangdong branch was located.
…
In the sky, the naked Shen Gongbao had blood running from the corners of his mouth. From a jade bottle, he poured out many medicinal pills and shoved them into his mouth. He might be weak in many things, but he was an expert in keeping his life. Whenever the situation was unfavorable to him, he always fled.
However, he still suffered a little today. The young man’s punch almost killed him.
“This is so horrible… That young man is definitely an Immortal King! I can’t believe there’s an Immortal King on the Ancestral Planet… I have to inform the Sect Leader immediately! No wonder he could destroy the Immortal Exterminating Sword’s clone!”
Color returned to Shen Gongbao’s face after he had taken the medicinal pills. Then, he rode the black panther and flew toward Penglai Island dejectedly.
…
Meanwhile, at the State Supernatural Agency’s base outside the city…
The underground chambers were bustling with activities. People in uniform were coming and going at a fast pace.
Bu Fang came to the main control room, where dozens of operators were working on computers. He looked up at the huge screen, on which was the model of Earth. It looked different now and was covered with red dots.
“This is our State Supernatural Agency’s main control room. We share the information with the headquarters, so you can definitely find what you want…” Chief Luo looked at Bu Fang with pride. The equipment of Hua’s State Supernatural Agency was in the leading position in the world.
“Hmm…” Bu Fang raised his brows and said nothing about that. “Well, I need you to help me find a girl,” he said, after thinking for a while.
Chief Luo paused. He did not expect that instead of searching for the Divine Artifacts, the first thing Bu Fang wanted to find was a girl. ‘How could we use the State Supernatural Agency’s equipment to look for a… girl?’ He looked somewhat embarrassed.
“She is a girl clad in a long black dress… And she is very beautiful,” Bu Fang went on.
Chief Luo’s face grew darker. ‘This description… There are plenty of girls in the world who fit what he said. How are we going to find the one he’s looking for?!’
“Does she have any other characteristics?” Chief Luo asked carefully.
“Other characteristics…” Bu Fang paused. Then, he twitched the corner of his mouth and said, “Yes, she does.”
“What are they?” Chief Luo asked curiously.
Bu Fang cocked his head, thought for a while, and said mildly, “Her temper is not very… good, and she is very strong. Whenever she gets angry, she will play with her snake and destroy a country…”
