Chapter 679
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Outside the Glutton God City, the villages became ruins under the giant alligator’s claws . Many survivors had run as fast as they could, with their faces aghast . They were rushing toward Glutton God City .
The ground was shaken . As the alligator was treading, moving forward, the ground cracked . Its fierce mouth opened wide, showing the sharp teeth that radiated icy light .
As with the hurried strides of the alligator continued, the Glutton God City drew near . The imposing shape of the city was now in front of the beast .
Boom!
The giant alligator stopped, crouching outside the Glutton God City, eyeing the city . The alligator blinked several times and stayed put .
Many people had stumbled, but they later realized that the alligator stood still . They exhaled in relief, then came and pounded on the city gate .
Although the alligator stayed still, the people there didn’t feel safe at all . They wanted to get into the city to seek protection .
On the Glutton God City, the guards were definitely frightened as they saw the alligator lying a little further away from them . It wasn’t different from a small mountain .
What kind of monster was that?
The guards were filled with fear . . .
However, the pathetic crying and screaming echoing from the city gate made them open the gate to let the surviving villagers into the city .
Amidst all this, nobody noticed that a graceful figure had also blended in and entered the city when the gate opened up .
Even after all the survivors had entered the city, the giant alligator was still lying there, gazing at the Glutton God City . People felt so chilled when they faced that pair of eyes .
“Quick… Go report to the superior in the city!”
Eventually, a guard felt something wrong from the city wall . When such a giant alligator gazed at them, no one could stand still .
. . .
After a swift “swish,” the rays of the projecting formations focused on the Paper-Wrapped Fish on Bu Fang’s station .
Bu Fang used his knife to cut the ballooning paper that covered the fish . Immediately, the steaming heat rolled and deluged like water overflowing a broken dam . It was boiling and exploding .
The paper was pulled aside, releasing a thick aroma . This aroma contained the distinctive smell of fish, of pure wine, and also the sweet and sour taste of the spirit fruit . The combination of aromas had charmed and comforted many people .

From the image projected in the sky, people could see through the toasted, yellowed paper to see the elastic fish meat . The Heaven-Swallowing Spiritual Spot Fish’s head and tail were removed, leaving only the body wrapped inside the paper .
The fish soup mingled with the boiling wine, simmering in the heat . The fish meat was shining and transparent like a precious gemstone . This beauty was beyond any description!
Some red spirit fruit were sparkling enchanting light, full of spirit energy . From the appearance… it looked really eye-catching .
So someone could actually use paper to cook…
Everybody was surprised when they saw the Paper-Wrapped Fish with sufficient color, smell and taste . They couldn’t help but gulp their saliva . The fragrance of this Paper-Wrapped Fish wasn’t less than Wenren Shang’s Steamed Fish .
Bu Fang grabbed his Paper-Wrapped Fish and walked toward the center of the arena, while the back tunic of his Vermillion Robe fanned outwards when he turned around . He had a little hope to see if his Paper-Wrapped Fish could defeat the steamed Heaven-Swallowing Spiritual Spot Fish cooked by Wenren Shang .
He brought the Paper-Wrapped Fish to Chu Changsheng .
Wenren Shang rose his bamboo gourd, pouring himself a sip of wine . Immediately, the liquor aroma spread . He glanced at Bu Fang, and the corners of his mouth rose . He gave Bu Fang a tender nod .
Bu Fang looked at him indifferently and slightly moved the Paper-Wrapped Fish in his hand .
Wenren Shang became curious . He didn’t hurry to walk forward, just stood at his spot, waiting for the final result .
Bu Fang put the Paper-Wrapped Fish on the table .
Chu Changsheng stroked his beard, glancing at Bu Fang . Using paper to wrap the fish and cook . . . This cooking method had surprised Chu Changsheng, indeed . He observed the dish, using his chopsticks to push the paper aside .
Liancheng craned his neck full of curiosity . He was astounded when he saw the fish inside the paper bag . He was actually admiring the chef . Although this kid was unpleasant to the eyes, his skills weren’t bad .
The beautiful eyes of the Celestial Saintess scanned Bu Fang, then the Paper-Wrapped Fish .
“Interesting… Used the paper to cover the fish to keep the fish’s taste and smell within; used the spirit fruit to eliminate the stinky smell of the fish… added with good wine . Hey kid, honestly… I’m interested in your wine,” said Chu Changsheng .

Everybody took a deep breath . Was that a compliment? A little chef has just received a compliment from the Great Elder?
Chu Changsheng said nothing more . He rose his chopsticks to grab the fish meat . As it was soft and fresh, his chopsticks could pick up the meat with a light touch .
The fish meat was really elastic, like jelly . It bounced a little bit in his chopsticks after being picked up . The meat with the thick aroma and spirit energy seemed to sway on his chopsticks . Chu Changsheng’s eyes moved .
He put the meat into his mouth .
As Wenren Shang and the others were watching, Chu Changsheng’s facial expression changed .
Boom!!
Chu Changsheng’s loose robe ballooned . The light in his eyes shot everywhere . His hair rose together with his long beard . He looked incomparably excited .
“The wine’s flavor combined perfectly with the fish and the sour and sweet taste of the spirit fruit! Perfect! Really delicious!”
Boop . Chu Changsheng threw his chopsticks on the table .
“Haaaa . . . “
He exhaled deeply to calm down . His clothes deflated and his face calmed . He resumed his unconcerned visage .
Did his clothes balloon? The Great Elder’s clothes ballooned one more time… So, this little chef’s dish wasn’t less delicious than Wenren Shang’s?
Everybody was so astonished . Nobody had ever thought about this possibility, as they had kept in mind that it was a solo-power-performance . Still, it turned like that .
Liancheng couldn’t wait anymore . Was it true that the little chef could cook something better than Wenren Shang’s food? That steamed fish had greatly astonished him . It was the first time he got to eat something so delicious!
He rose his chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish meat . At the moment his chopsticks touched the meat, it felt very different . The fragrant meat still had faint steam arising . He couldn’t wait to put the meat into his mouth . As soon as he got the fish meat in his mouth, all the savor bloomed .
Liancheng shivered for a while with goosebumps on his skin .
It was better than the steamed fish… The flavor of the Paper-Wrapped Fish was kept perfectly . This feeling… drowned him! Especially the wine… And also the sweet and sour taste of the spirit fruit…
“Delicious . . . So delicious!”
Liancheng felt his words stuck somewhere in his throat .
The Celestial Saintess also took a bite . She didn’t say anything . However, her beautiful eyes looked at Bu Fang strangely .
He was bewildered when facing her eyes . When their eyes met… there was something familiar .
The Celestial Saintess’ eyes curved as if she was smiling at Bu Fang .
Bu Fang was a little bewildered . Then, he turned away, with his face emotionless .
On the high platforms, everybody was gazing as they were much surprised . Who would win this match?
Ouyang Chenfeng curved his lips into a smile . His bright eyes were glued to Bu Fang .
“I can’t believe it . . . “
A chef standing on a high platform not far from him looked at him skeptically .
“What? Chef Ouyang, do you think that Wenren Shang will be defeated?” That chef smiled casually as he was very confident in Wenren Shang .
“What? Chef Wenren couldn’t fail?” Ouyang Chenfeng said smilingly .
The other chef darkened his face immediately . “Funny! You should know Wenren Shang’s ability . If he fails, does it also mean I’m not as excellent as that little chef?” His words made Ouyang Chenfeng halt .
A moment later, he sighed, “Didn’t you see that when the Great Elder tasted the Paper-Wrapped Fish, except for his clothes, even his beard rose upward? But when he ate the steamed fish, only his hair rose… Don’t you know what it means?” said Ouyang Chenfeng .
Instantly, the other chef was stunned, and his face became dull . Was that also some sort of grading?
. . .
“Alright, tasting time is over . Celestial Saintess and Saint Son, please give your assessment,” said Chu Changsheng . Hearing him, everybody took a deep breath .
It was time for the result?
“I choose Chef Wenren . His steamed fish is beyond compare . I felt like I was lost in it . ” Liancheng said without a bit of hesitation .
The Celestial Saintess’ eyes drilled in Liancheng . “I choose Chef… Bu . “
Oh!
Their votes sent people into an uproar . If so, they had to wait for Chu Changseng’s vote!
However, right when Chu Changsheng was about to tell his assessment, a frightened cry came .
“Report! A monster is attacking the city!”
