  “The monkey brain wrapped in pearl is…… ready.”


  Bu Fang’s voice was not loud, but it made all the people in the restaurant raise their heads.

  Outside, many nobles cast curious glances through the door. Soul’s Cavalry of Death had surrounded the restaurant, yet the chef was still so calm. His nonchalant attitude surprised them.

  Bu Fang was holding a porcelain plate, which contained a large, round pearl garnished with immortal vegetables still fresh with water droplets.

  ‘So this is the monkey brain? Is this thing even edible? Isn’t this just a ball? And it has no smell at all…… Is he going to make me eat it raw?’ Marquis Lang Gu looked confused.

  “Little chef, I’ve said that you can’t kill a monkey to get the brain……” he said, pointing a finger at Bu Fang.

  Bu Fang raised his brows. “Are you worried that I’m lying to you?”


  “Fine! If your monkey brain satisfies me…… I’ll settle the Cavalry of Death for you!” the marquis said with high spirits. The cavalry was fierce, but since he had decided to support Nethery, he had to show his sincerity. Fighting these soldiers would be the proof of his loyalty.

  “It’s a deal,” Bu Fang said as a faint smile brushed his lips.

  Thinking that there was something to eat, Foxy, lying listlessly under the Path-Understanding Tree, turned into a white beam of light and sped up to Bu Fang’s shoulder, rubbing her little paws excitedly.

  “You can’t eat this. It’s for the customer.” Bu Fang rubbed the little fox’s head. His words put a sad look on her face.

  Nethery, too, looked curiously at the huge pearl. ‘This clearly is a pearl. Which part of it makes it a monkey brain? And it doesn’t look like something edible……’ she thought to herself.

  Bu Fang, however, only smiled enigmatically. He was very satisfied with the dish. It had attracted the attention of the universe’s will, but perhaps because it was in Void City, that supreme existence had blocked off the punishment from the universe’s will.

  Marquis Lang Gu sat leisurely on his chair.

  Outside, the cavalry looked at each other. They were led by two Chaotic Saints, who were just ordinary Chaotic Saints as strong as the person in charge of the fighting pit at the most.

  However, they were twins, and when they joined hands, they could unleash the strength of a marquis. The twins were quite famous in District A, and they were both formidable experts who served Soul.

  Soul had many supporters in Void City. Countless nobles believed that she would succeed to the throne, so they all stood at her side.

  The twin brothers rode on a two-headed phoenix, and behind them was the fearsome Cavalry of Death, who seemed to be curious about the scene inside the restaurant. The brothers lifted their hands and ordered the soldiers to stand by.

  “Let’s see what this restaurant is up to. What is that slutty Marquis Lang Gu doing in this restaurant?” said the twin brothers in unison, then nodded at the same time.

  The nobles sucked in their breaths as they looked into the restaurant……

  Marquis Lang Gu sat in his chair and took out a square of white cloth, which he materialized with his power. At his level, it was not a strange thing to materialize things at will. He tucked one corner of the napkin into his collar, then leaned back comfortably and looked forward to tasting the cuisine Bu Fang had prepared for him.

  Unlike Countess Xia Qiu, he had never tasted food before. That woman was a Cursed Goddess who wandered the other universe a long time ago, so she had eaten many things.

  Marquis Lang Gu was born and raised in Void City. As a noble of the city, he had never eaten anything cooked by a chef. So, he was very curious even though this was something forbidden by the Queen.

  “I’m ready.” He put away the pellet drum and blinked at Bu fang. “How do you eat this thing? Do you bite it directly?” he asked curiously.

  “Bite it directly? You may try……” Bu Fang said.

  The outermost layer of the dish was pearl powder. Although it was edible, it was not the most delicious thing.

  Looking at the marquis’ clueless face, Bu Fang could not help but feel sad. Food was such a beautiful thing, yet none of the people in Void City, which claimed to be the strongest city in the multiverse, had tasted it before.

  It would be a bleak and gloomy life if a person had not tasted food. But this would change soon, for Bu Fang was here. As a man who would top the food chain in the fantasy world, he felt that he was obligated to help these people redefine the meaning of food.

  The Qilin Transmigration Ladle appeared in Bu Fang’s hand with a humming sound, spinning so fast it appeared like a tiny vortex. Just when Marquis Lang Gu was dazzled by it, he clutched the ladle firmly, brought it down hard, and smashed the top of the pearl.

  The pearl looked like a round egg, and something good seemed to be breeding inside. When the ladle struck it, the huge pearl reconstructed by Bu Fang broke with a crash. As it shattered slowly, the fragments turned into powder, and a gust of wind carried it across the restaurant.

  Ting-a-ling!

  The bell at the kitchen door tinkled, and the curtain swayed lightly as a gentle breeze blew inside the restaurant. Then, the white powder filled the air, turning into what looked like the milky way in the dark starry sky. It was very beautiful.

  Marquis Lang Gu was stunned. He covered his mouth with both hands, and his eyes sparkled.

  Bu Fang snapped his fingers. The light in the restaurant dimmed down in an instant. In the darkness, the pearl powder glowed as it drifted through the air. The sight was as magical as an immortal realm.

  Marquis Lang Gu’s face was flushing, and his eyes were watery. The enchanting scene made his maiden heart flutter. ‘So this is food? It looks so beautiful!’ For a moment, he was shy and timid. ‘This little chef is…… so romantic!’


  Outside, many nobles saw that as well, and their jaws dropped. The dreamlike scene had shocked them. In fact, most of them were here to witness what food was, and what they saw had surprised them. Suddenly, the faces of many people changed.

  Lub-dub!

  A sound like the beating of a heart rang out, and it made the hearts of many beat at the same time. They raised their heads and looked incredulously into the restaurant, resting their gaze at the pearl.

  The disintegrating of the pearl stopped in the middle. The pearl powder scattered in the air as the contents were revealed. Marquis Lang Gu squinted at it with an intoxicated look on his face. ‘What kind of delicious food would such a beautiful scene produce?’ he thought to himself.

  The next moment, what he saw froze his intoxicated expression, and then it was replaced by a confused look. Beneath that pearly shell was actually a throbbing brain. It looked extremely lifelike as if it was a real monkey brain. The patterns on it, the nerves, the curves, and the holes were identical to a real brain.

  ‘Dammit…… This little chef is so disgusting! My maiden heart is shattered!’ Marquis Lang Gu gritted his teeth, and his cheeks kept twitching with anger. He glared at Bu Fang and said furiously, “You really used a monkey brain to make this dish?!”


  As he spoke, his coquettish voice turned hoarse like the roar of a savage beast. Apparently, he was fuming. It was as if he was about to transform into a giant ape, and a terrifying aura erupted out of him. The pearl in front of him seemed to be on the verge of being blown apart.

  However, Bu Fang made a light sweep with his hand and protected the dish. “I’ve told you…… This is not a real monkey brain. Don’t jump the gun. Try it first,” he said.

  The nobles outside the restaurant were very curious. They could see everything clearly. Inside the huge pearl was a throbbing brain covered with nerves. It looked so lifelike that it appeared to be a real brain.

  “That’s a real brain……”


  “This chef is obviously lying through his teeth!”


  “If that is not a brain, what is it?”


  Bu Fang seemed to hear their questions, and he lifted the corners of his mouth slightly. “The dish is called…… The monkey brain wrapped in a pearl,” he said, putting his hands behind his back and staring at Marquis Lang Gu, whose aura gradually calmed down.

  “Its ingredients are somewhat…… complicated. I’ve made it with a kind of bean, which is a divine bean specially bred by my grower. It can make people immortal and raise dead people……

  “I ground the beans into a pulp and made bean curd with it, so the main ingredient of this dish is bean curd. It looks real enough to be a brain, but to make it like a genuine brain, bean curd alone is not enough. Therefore, I’ve also added other ingredients, including the best blood lobster meat carefully chosen by me and the best crab roe. Through mixing them, I perfected the taste.

  “Of course, these were only ingredients. With my awesome knife techniques, I’ve carved out a lifelike monkey brain. As for the reason why it’s throbbing like a living brain, it’s because I’ve used the oil splashing method.

  “What is this oil splashing method? You won’t understand even if I explained it to you. All you need to know is that this is a very powerful method,” Bu Fang said indifferently.

  Many people were stunned after listening to him. They felt he was bluffing. Xiao Ai was struck dumb, too. She glanced at Nethery and found that her master was smiling as if she did not have the slightest doubt about the chef.

  ‘How is this even possible…… Bean curd can be made into a monkey brain?!’ Marquis Lang Gu did not know what to say. In fact, he was beginning to believe Bu Fang.

  “Try it,” Bu Fang said as he looked at the marquis.

  Outside, the nobles narrowed their eyes. It only took one mouthful of the dish to know if Bu Fang was lying. However, Marquis Lang Gu might not know the real taste of a monkey brain. For a moment, they looked at each other.

  “No matter how it tastes, once Marquis Lang Gu showed a disgusted look, then we know this so-called food is nothing but bullshit! Just like what the Queen of Curses said, food is…… heresy!”


  The nobles breathed faster and faster as they looked at the marquis.

  “So…… I’ll try it now?” Marquis Lang Gu said, and he adjusted the napkin at his neck.

  The corners of Bu Fang’s mouth lifted slightly. He took out a porcelain spoon and handed it to the marquis. “In fact, the monkey brain wrapped in a pearl can also be called…… the monkey bean curd. Give it a try.” He made a hand gesture, signaling the marquis to taste the dish.

  The real wonder of the dish began at the moment you pushed the spoon into it.

  Marquis Lang Gu took a deep breath. For some reason, he felt a little excited. He had never been so excited even when fighting a Chaotic Saint. His hand, which was holding the spoon, was shaking. He gave Bu Fang a look.

  Meanwhile, many people were watching, both inside and outside the restaurant. At the forefront of the Cavalry of Death, the twin brothers exchanged a look. They were not in a hurry to make a move now. The nobles were holding their breath.

  Marquis Lang Gu squinted at the dish, which appeared like a real brain. He was filled with a strange feeling. ‘Is this truly not a real monkey brain?’


  The porcelain spoon fell and went into the monkey brain with a wet sound. Like jelly, the tender monkey brain split easily.

  Rumble!

  The next moment, Marquis Lang Gu was stunned. As soon as the monkey brain was crushed, a plume of white steam gushed out of it and blew into his face, causing him to let out a panicked shriek. However, his scream only lasted for two seconds, and then he was completely intoxicated.

  The rich aroma contained in the white steam had made him fall into the world of delicious food completely! The true nature of the monkey brain was completely revealed at this moment!
