Zhang Qiubai!He was the top genius from the Sword Demon Clan and also one of the ten members of the best team! He was very strong. Although he wasn’t one of the three kings of the younger generation, he was considered extremely gifted.

  His sword was very fast, which surprised everyone. Even the dust was crumbling under it. A shrill noise tore the air as the top of the sword went straight toward Bu Fang’s head, intending to cut him in half!

  Lu Ban put his hands behind his back, his face cold. Zhang Qiubai’s sudden move was somewhat beyond his expectation.

  Zhang Qiubai had mastered the Sword Demon Clan’s Sword Essence. His strength was formidable, and he was a strong opponent. However, Lu Ban didn’t take him seriously. In his eyes, only the other two of the three Kings were qualified to be his opponents. Zhang Qiubai was not even close.

  The horrible sword light kept closing in. A shock of cold went through the Immortal Cooking Realm experts. They felt as if they were completely wrapped in ice.

  “He’s dead!”


  “This chef from the Immortal Cooking Realm is dead! No one can survive Zhang Qiubai’s sword!”


  “That’s the price he deserves! Who told him to kill Zhang Xuan in the semifinal?”


  The Nether Prison experts all showed gloating expressions.

  The corners of Lu Yu’s mouth curved upward into a smile. Looking at Bu Fang, who was about to be killed by Zhang Qiubai, he felt a little excited!

  Meanwhile, a bitter look came over Fa Wu’s face. He didn’t expect the Nether Prison expert to attack Bu Fang at the slightest disagreement. It was dismissive of the other contestants. ‘Owner Bu will probably be killed this time……’


  The Earth Prison experts looked on timidly. There were few commendable figures in Earth Prison’s younger generation today, so it was very difficult for them to see a peerless expert like Nether King Tian Cang again.

  Bu Fang looked indifferently at the sword that was approaching him, and his eyes became sharp. He was a little angry as he thought, ‘He’s going to kill me at the slightest disagreement? Didn’t he see that I was trying to buy a puppet’s heart? A deal that had been so close to success was ruined by him!’


  “Can’t you see that I’m in a business discussion?” Bu Fang said lightly. “Do you have any idea how much I like that puppet?”


  He looked at the sword without flinching. The next moment, he flipped his hand, and a seven-color dumpling appeared in his palm, blooming with a seven-color light and looking like a brilliant rainbow.

  “What?” The Nether Prison experts were taken aback. “That’s a…… dumpling? He’s going to use a f*cking dumpling to counter Zhang Qiubai’s deadly sword? Can’t he be more serious?!”


  Lu Ban’s eyes also narrowed slightly.

  Zhang Qiubai’s face was cold. He seemed to have turned into a sword himself, while the sword in his hand was constantly shaking and making a sharp whistling sound.

  With a ripping sound, the sword cut through the dumpling, which exploded with a bang in an instant. A strong aroma immediately spread, shocking everyone present. How could a mere dumpling resist Zhang Qiubai’s sword?

  However, the moment the dumpling was cut, a cloud of smoke immediately enveloped Zhang Qiubai and gave him a chill.

  “What’s this feeling?!” Zhang Qiubai’s pupils constricted. He felt that his body turned completely stiff. “This……”


  Bu Fang stood up slowly, his face cold. The next moment, the bandage that bound his arm came undone, and he raised a fist surrounded by Yin and Yang energy. With a deafening roar, the shadows of beasts appeared over the fist.

  Suddenly, he threw a punch!

  In the shocked eyes of all, the fist surrounded in beast shadows struck Zhang Qiu Bai in the face.

  Zhang Qiubai’s pupils constricted as a terrible force spread over his face instantly. He felt as if his nasal bone were going to shatter. In the blink of an eye, he was smashed flying backward, and his sword energy also broke completely.

  The Nether Prison experts were struck dumb. They watched with blank faces as Zhang Qiubai, who rushed toward Bu Fang with his sword light, was thrown back like a cannonball and smashed into a table, breaking it completely!

  Did Bu Fang defeat Zhang Qiubai with just one move?! How was that possible? Was his strength really so horrible?

  Everyone fell silent. No one had expected this to happen. Zhang Qiubai was the top genius from the Sword Demon Clan who had mastered the Killing Sword Essence, but he was thrown away by the chef from the Immortal Cooking Realm with just one punch!

  Even Zhang Qiubai was a little confused. He fell to the ground and was in a daze for a moment. Then, he stood up. His nose was broken, and blood was pouring from his nostrils.

  “He seems to have some tricks up his sleeves. No wonder he can pick the Senseless Lotus and kill Zhang Xuan……” Lu Yu took a deep breath, and the look in his eyes grew serious.

  Zhang Qiubai stood up, wiped the blood from his nose, and squinted at Bu Fang. “You have some tricks…… but your strength is weak. You can’t go very far with that kind of strength.”


  He sheathed his sword. It was an ancient bronze sword, which he carried on his back. As a genius of the Sword Demon Clan, Zhang Qiubai had his own pride. Although he was beaten up by Bu Fang, he thought that it was due to his carelessness. Therefore, he wouldn’t fly into a rage and attack again. He had his manners.

  “No wonder you’ve killed Zhang Xuan…… You have some tricks up your sleeves. However, if we meet again in the competition, I’ll not make the same mistake. I’ll definitely kill you,” he said. After that, he ignored the mess on the ground, turned, and walked downstairs.

  Zhang Qiubai really had a different personality than the others. Although he was beaten in the face, he chose not to retaliate on the spot. The Nether Prison experts were silent as they watched him leave.

  Lu Ban’s mouth twitched slightly. ‘A genius has his own resolve. Zhang Qiubai’s attack just now was to avenge Zhang Xuan. If the chef were killed, he deserves it. But since he blocked it, Zhang Qiubai wouldn’t attack again. Swordsmen are proud. I was surprised, however, that the guy was able to fend off his attack……’


  Lu Ban squinted at Bu Fang. As it happened, Bu Fang also turned his head to look at him.

  “Well…… Let’s resume our talk about the puppet. Be frank and tell me how much will you sell it?” Bu Fang said.

  At his words, Lu Ban’s eyes turned cold again. “You think you’re invincible when you defeated Zhang Qiubai? He was defeated by your tricks, but this didn’t give you the right to do whatever you want in front of me……” he said coldly.

  As his voice echoed through the air, Lu Ban’s aura exploded out. It spread and turned all faces pale, including the Nether Prison experts. They all looked shocked and in awe.

  This was the King of the younger generation. He was a Five-revolution Little Saint! Such a cultivation base was already comparable to that of the older generations of experts!

  The aura was overwhelming and made one’s legs tremble. Many people took deep breaths and were terrified, while the faces of Fa Wu and the other contestants turned unsightly as they found that they couldn’t move under the aura.

  Was this the strength of an expert from the Nether Prison’s best team? Was this the gap between them and Nether Prison geniuses?

  Fa Wu gritted his teeth, and his eyes were filled with discontent. He was a genius from the West Little Buddhism Realm, but his cultivation base was only barely up to the level of a Two-revolution Little Saint. Compared to Lu Ban, his strength was nothing short of impressive. The gap between them was so wide that he felt frustrated.

  “Owner Bu…… Forget it, let’s bow our heads and apologize……” Fa Wu said with a pale face, looking at Bu Fang helplessly. “Too strong…… Nether Prison’s geniuses are too strong……”


  The other experts of the West Little Buddhism Realm also bowed their heads in despair. However, to their surprise, the eyes of the Immortal Cooking Realm experts were gleaming, and they held their heads up with an unyielding look on their faces. They even stared at Bu Fang with a certain fervor. Their confidence in Bu Fang surprised many people.

  Under Lu Ban’s pressure, Bu Fang was calm, and his expression didn’t change at all.

  Lu Ban was one of the three Kings of the younger generation, and his aura alone was enough to make people feel despair. Looking at Bu Fang, he raised his hand and clapped it on his puppet. With a loud bang, the puppet fell to the ground and opened its eyes, where two beams of light shot out. At the same time, an aura exploded out of its body, adding up to Lu Ban’s aura and producing a deafening rumble.

  At this moment, the whole hall was enveloped in the pressure, while the tables, unable to bear the pressure, began to squeak.

  Crunch…… Crunch……

  All the Nether Prison experts had already retreated in awe to the distance.

  Lu Yu stared at Lu Ban with excitement and enthusiasm. This was his idol! Although he was also from the best team, he was a far cry from Lu Ban, the King of the younger generation!

  At this moment, Zhu Yan and the other experts from the Immortal Cooking Realm bowed their heads under the tremendous pressure. Their chairs were all shattered, their knees were bent, and they couldn’t help but feel like kneeling……

  Such was the power of a King!

  The reason why Kings could be called Kings was because of their pressure and aura!

  “Submit to me…… and give me the Senseless Lotus.” Lu Ban put his hands behind his back and stood beside his puppet. There was a lofty look in his eyes, and he stared at Bu Fang like an emperor who looked down on all living beings from the skies.

  Fa Wu and the others felt they could hardly breathe.

  “Owner Bu……” The monk gritted his teeth. He was puzzled by Bu Fang’s stubbornness. Why continue to insist when it was clear that they could not defeat this opponent?

  The confidence that Zhu Yan and the others had had disappeared as well. Their faith in Bu Fang couldn’t withstand this crushing oppression. They wavered……

  “Owner Bu…… Why don’t…… we just give in?” Zhu Yan said with a hesitant expression.

  The eyes of Mo Yan and the others also turned red, and their backs were almost bent by the pressure. They really couldn’t stand it.

  “Don’t be afraid, relax.”


  Suddenly, Bu Fang’s calm voice rang out, leaving Mo Yan and the others stunned for a moment. The next instant, they saw a golden light spreading from his body and sweeping across their bodies. In the blink of an eye, the pressure that made them almost drop to their knees disappeared.

  Bu Fang sat firmly in his seat and looked at Lu Ban with calm eyes as his divine will spread out. To him, Lu Ban’s pressure was like a cool breeze. “I sincerely want to do business with you, but you want to attack me. In this case……” He rose slowly from his chair.

  All eyes were on him.

  “What’s this Immortal Cooking Realm chef going to do?”


  “Instead of the Senseless Lotus…… how about a Sword Pot?” Bu Fang said lightly.

  The next moment, his divine will exploded out, wrapping him up like a golden lotus with its petals unfolding. At the same time, an earthy-yellow clay pot appeared over his palm, surging with a vast sword will!

  As soon as the clay pot appeared, Lu Ban’s indifferent expression changed, and his calm heart was horrified!
