Chapter 229: The Path-Understanding Blossoming Flower

Bang Bang Bang!

Miserable howls kept on resounding within the small store . Every miserable howl signified an expert being turned into a blood mist .

That was practically hell . It was frightening to the point of making one feel their heart tightening the moment they saw the scene .

Whitey had already reinstated back to its red-eye mode . The bloodstains on its body had also been automatically purified . Once again, it was turned back into its original white and plump appearance as it stood behind Bu Fang .

Ni Yan and the others were in shock . Their complexion had turned deathly white due to the frightening scene .

They had never even once seen such a gruesome scene before . Even Xiao Meng, who was accustomed to slaughtering, also felt his heart shuddering . His pores had widen up and his back was drenched in cold sweat!

Ye Ziling widened her eyes while her lips turned deathly pale . She was originally an obedient girl who stayed within the Hundred Thousand Mountains . Even though her cultivation was pretty decent, she had never even witnessed any bloody scenes of a battlefield before . Let alone this shocking scene that was in front of her right now .

Looking at the big black hound which was standing in the middle of the alley barking, at that moment, everyone couldn't help but feel some reverence within their hearts .

Bu Fang complexion was also slightly pale . However, he still tried his best to control himself .

The ferocious barking did not resonate throughout the Imperial Capital as it was shrouded by Blacky's true energy, causing the barking to only resonate within this alley . Therefore, outside of this alley, the Imperial Capital was still the same as before, auspicious and peaceful . So much that there was not even any trace of the frightening energy .

The alley floor had finally been shattered and was tainted by the fresh blood .

Some of the people had fled from the alley but their spirit had long been repressed . They did not even dare to turn around to take another glace as they tried to frantically escape from the alley .

Those who had managed to escape are basically those who possessed a cultivation level of Battle-Saint and above . These Battle-Saints all had a set of uniquely life-saving methods . Therefore, they were able to survive from this calamity .

The ferocious howling had finally come to a stop .

The large hound had also lowered its head, which had been perking up . Its eyes apathetically swept around its surrounding once as he looked at the spacious and empty alley . It harrumphed once while its body started shrinking . Ultimately, it returned back to the form of the plump dog, Blacky .

Striding in its graceful cat steps, Blacky returned to the store .

The frightening imposing pressure had also finally dissipated from the valley . They heaved a sigh of relief and loosened up the tension that had been building up in their bodies . It was as if the boulder which had been in their hearts had finally fallen off .

Blacky opened his mouth and yawned . That lazy appearance… it was as if Blacky was asking for a beating .

However Xiao Meng was actually looking at that black dog in reverence and did not even dare to manifest his awe-inspiring prestige at all .

Bu Fang patted Blacky's head . He raised his head and looked at those people who were hovering in the sky above the alley and said indifferently: "Do any of you still want the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit?"

Want? Want your sister!

Everyone was cursing in their heart . Indeed, they wanted it but would they still have the courage to? Such a frightening dog… it was not something they could contend against . Even if a War-God were to face this dog, they believed that War-God would also be powerless against it .

"Er . . . There is not a need for all of you to be discouraged or disappointed," Bu Fang looked at those people who were hovering in the sky and said seriously .

"The reason why I am not selling the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit is because I needed this fruit and would use it to make dishes . You might not be able to obtain the Path-Understanding Fruit, but you can still choose to buy the dishes made from it . I believe those dishes would certainly not make any of you feel disappointed . "

Make dishes with it? Using the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit? Everyone hovering at the sky felt somewhat comical as if they were overwhelmed by Bu Fang's decision .

Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit was a heavenly treasure . And you are freaking telling us that you want to use it to make dishes?

Zhang Kong and Bian Changkong complexion was also somewhat dumbfounded .

On the contrary, the old drunkard grinned and felt that it was very interesting . He had wanted to use the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit to brew wine, but Bu Fang actually wanted to use it to make dishes . . . The line of thoughts from both sides were just using a different method that would lead to the same result .

The Old Drunkard immediately started laughing heartily . He picked up the wine gourd and poured a cup of wine for himself so as to keep his surprise under control .

After that, he pulled the stubborn donkey down to the middle of the alley and started walking toward the small store .

Ultimately, that donkey was forced to stay within the alley by that Old Drunkard, outside the store .

"I am looking forward to Boss Bu's dishes that were made using the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit . " The Old Drunkard smiled .

Bu Fang looked at that old man in surprise . Bu Fang nodded his head and did not say anything .

In the sky, Zhan Kong and his men frowned . Finally, they also chose to descend, and then entered the small store .

The disturbance had finally come to an end . No one knew how many experts had died in this unremarkable alley in the Imperial Capital . There were Battle-Saint who had managed to escape from this alley . They all had rushed out of the Imperial Capital fanatically and did not even bother to turn their head back . They were all frightened to death by that dog .

Above the streets of the Imperial Capital, Ghost Chef Wang Ding slowly advanced over . In one of his hands, he was carrying a porcelain jar and his appearance was very placid .

"Where did all the fluctuation go? Could it be that I have arrived late . . . and the battle has already ended?" Ghost Chef was somewhat puzzled . According to what he had understood, it was impossible for this small store to be able to contend against all the onslaught from those experts .

Arriving at the alley entrance, he looked inside . The secluded alley was extremely spacious and empty . There was not a single person there .

However, there was a heavy reeking of blood assaulting his nostrils . This caused the Ghost Chef to feel as if he had been thrown into an ocean of blood .

Ghost Chef deeply sucked in a breath of air . His complexion carried faint traces of grave as he entered into the alley . The moment his foot touched the ground, he felt that the sole of his foot had submerged down . He was startled . He lowered his head to take a look . The floor of the alley had actually been covered by a layer of chisel powder . . .

"Inside this alley . . . what exactly had happened!" Ghost Chef's heart suddenly started thumping as he felt a sense of uneasiness .

"It's so quiet… Could it be that it has really ended? But why hasn't this small store been destroyed?"

Ghost Chef slowly strode over and arrived in front of the small store . Unexpectedly, the store was actually filled with people!

"Could it be that this small store had been invaded and occupied? It seem possible . . . It's definitely possible!" Ghost Chef's heart was certain about it as he deeply breathed in a mouthful of air .

He no longer hesitated as he opened up the porcelain jar lid .

The dense fishy stench drifted out, causing the Ghost Chef to slightly wrinkle his eyebrows . The smell was really too smelly!

By the entrance of the store, the Ghost Chef drank all the broth from the jar in a shot . In an instant, he felt that his whole body meridians had started to swell .

Crash!

The porcelain jar fell onto the ground and shattered into pieces .

It immediately caught the attention of everyone inside the store . All of them looked out and were surprised to see an old man with dishevelled hair kneeling down on the ground fighting against his convulsion .

After convulsing for a while, that old man stood up . That supposingly aged facial features had unexpectedly become a lot younger .

The Ghost Chef Wang Ding twisted his neck and felt the insurmountable strength within his body . He endured the urge to laugh heartily . Was this the strength of a War-God? Sure enough, it was able to let one be attracted by it .

"Next, it's time for me to seize the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit . "

Ghost Chef smiled sinisterly as he lifted up his head . His gaze fell onto those curious eyes that were staring at him .

. . .

Bu Fang grabbed onto the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit and returned back to the kitchen . He placed the spirit fruits, which were covered in brilliant lights and vibrant colors that emitted rich true energy, onto the cooking bench .

He stared at the three fruit and wrinkled his eyebrows . No one knew what he was thinking about when he touched his chin while contemplating .

The current mission was to use this Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit to make a dish . Only by passing through the system's evaluation would the quest be counted as completed . But the problem was what kind of dish should he make? This was the main problem, which still remained unsolved for Bu Fang .

"Use the smash cucumber salad method to handle this Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit so as to restore back the original feel of the spirit fruit?" Bu Fang murmured . However, the idea was being dismissed by him very quickly . If he were to really handle it this way, he would definitely not pass the evaluation . After all, according to the craftiness of the system, it would never allow Bu Fang to complete his mission so easily .

After giving much thought to it, Bu Fang took one of the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit and a green smoke appeared around his hand, after which a pitch-black, simple and unadorned Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife appeared on his hand .

Bu Fang took out a chopping board . After brandishing the knife, he sliced the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit into two .

Immediately, a rich fruity smell pervaded out and unexpectedly brought along faint heat with it . After slicing it into half, the pulp inside it started to leak out the thick fruity juice, that also carried a mild and humid heat with it .

After sizing up the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit, Bu Fang muttered to himself for some time before started to cut the Five Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit very quickly . Da Da Da . He chopped the spirit fruit into portions of equal size .

Bu Fang decided to cook a dish to test it out first .

Bu Fang took out an egg from the cupboard . This was a fifth grade spirit beast egg . There was still a disparity if he were to match it with this Path-Understanding Fruit .

After cracking the egg into the bowl and beating it up, Bu Fang ignited the fire and started warming up his pan .

He waited for the pan to reach a suitable temperature before pouring oil into it . After the oil had started boiling, he poured the neatly sliced Path-Understanding Fruit which was pervading the air with its aroma and spirit energy into the pan . Immediately, sizzling sounds resonated .

The oil splattered in all directions .

Bu Fang controlled his true energy and directed it into the pan . He controlled the spirit energy direction so as to prevent destroying the spirit energy in the spirit fruit .

After stir-frying it for a while, Bu Fang poured the egg liquid into the pan . At the same time, he also poured in the neatly sliced Path-Understanding Fruit into it . Both items were mixed together . Immediately, and rich aromas burst out, causing one to feel intoxicated by it .

Bu Fang sniffed the aroma and felt that his brain had become clear and sober . Extremely Refreshing!

"It's so fragrant!" He praised . Subsequently, he started to stir-fry it very quickly .

It was only for a moment and the egg liquid started to solidify . Because of the mixture with the Path-Understanding Fruit juice, the solidification did not look as tender and yellow as it was supposed to be . In contrast, it was somewhat glittering and translucent, as if it was frozen .

Bu Fang covered the pan with a lid so as to steam if for a moment . He controlled his true energy to pull out the spirit energy within the pan, causing the spirit energy of the dish to attain a kind of equilibrium .

Finally, Bu Fang opened the pan lid . The heat burst forth as it brought along the dish aroma and rushed out of the kitchen .

Bu Fang took a white round porcelain bowl and poured the dish into it .

With his professional arranging skills, the plate retained the brilliant glow and vibrant colors, with heat being emitted out of the Path-Understanding Fruit . In the middle of it, it was decorated with the glittering and translucent scrambled egg . The scrambled egg spirit energy bubbled up while the spirit energy of the spirit fruit burst forth . Clouds emerged on top of the dish, forming a moire .

"Path-Understanding Fruit Scrambled Egg . . . Er, this name is too crude . Let's call it Path-Understanding Blossoming Flower . It is a lot more classier . It would make it appear to be more decent . "

Bu Fang spun the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife around his hand, and the knife turned into green smoke and vanished .

He looked at the plate with the dish, was shrouded by cloud lines in its magnificent golden color, and the corner of his mouth rose .

"System, is this dish able to pass the evaluation process?" Bu Fang questioned the system .

If this dish was able to pass the evaluation, then it would save Bu Fang a lot of efforts from innovating again . Therefore, he was somewhat looking forward to the answer .

Nevertheless, the solemn and conscientious tone of the system resounded inside Bu Fang's mind very quickly .

"Dish name: Path-Understanding Blossoming Flower . Chef: Host, Bu Fang . Amount of spirit energy contained inside the dish: 70% . Path-Understanding Factor measurement: 70% . The Final usefulness evaluation: After a Battle-Saint had consumed it, it would be hard for him to rely on this to successfully break through to a War-God . Therefore, the dish is a failure . "
