Gourmet of Another World

This news had spread like a storm overnight. Although it had only been advertised for a short time, the entire Goddess City had already been made known of this.     

Countless people rushed like ducks to Fang Fang's Ice Cream Store.     

Everyone talked about the ice cream shop. Perhaps many did not understand, but once the word ice cream was brought up, there was probably no one in the city who did not know about it.     

Ice cream was a delicacy that bloomed vibrantly during the imperial feast, so it had long attracted everyone's attention.      

Actually, good delicacies would travel naturally through word of mouth, that's why its name would be all over the entire city.      

After the imperial feast, those higher officials who had tasted the ice cream had long gone crazy, using the fact that they had eaten ice cream before as a medal. When they talked about the imperial feast, ice cream would definitely be brought up.     

And today, the news that an ice cream shop was opening had engulfed the entire Goddess City like a storm.      

Everyone was extremely excited.      

Spring Wind Pavilion had been torn down to become the ice cream shop, and this news had traveled across the streets in an instant.     

On the morning of the third day...     

Jing Yuan was a little tired, but she walked out of the kitchen in high spirits. Just as she reached the entrance, she jumped in shock as she sucked in a breath of cold air.     

That was because the entrance was crowded with an extremely dense amount of people. They shuffled at the entrance, their eyes filled with excitement.     

Outside the ice cream shop, a signboard hung. On it was a promotional sentence written by Bu Fang, which included the price of an ice cream.      

Even without Bu Fang reminding her, Jing Yuan knew that Fang Fang's Ice Cream Store's main attraction was ice cream.      

At least three out of four people present had come because of the popularity of ice cream. After all, it was a delicacy that could intoxicate even the Empress.     

Who would not want to give it a try?     

Opening the doors of the restaurant, the bustling noise outside almost caused Jing Yuan's ears to shatter, with various types of shouts sounding out ceaselessly.     

With such a huge crowd, even Bu Fang involuntarily felt shocked.      

Nethery and Nether King Er Ha naturally began to organize the disorderly crowd into queues. In just a while, they had formed into a neat line.     

Various figures then stepped into the ice cream shop. In that instant, shocked yells rang out from inside. This made the hearts of those queuing outside to feel itchy.      

Bu Fang stood in the distance. He was not in charge of the opening business, mainly because he did not have the time.      

After all, he needed to enter the God Vanishing Mountain.     

Although he really cared about his first day's business revenue, compared to searching for the Spring of Life in the God Vanishing Mountain, the latter was more important.      

Of course, this was also because Bu Fang was very confident.      

He was very confident in his ice cream shop, and he believed that his opening day would be a success, something that he would definitely look forward to.      

Looking at that long queue, Bu Fang crossed his arms, his gaze unfathomable.     

This queue had already extended all the way to the main street. Speaking of its explosive popularity, it was as if all the women of Goddess City had come over.     

Some were here just to check things out, but of course, many had come to buy. Having a taste of the ice cream that the Empress had constantly complimented was already enough of an incentive for them.      

Watching the strict Nethery and Nether King Er Ha who sorted out the crowd, Bu Fang lightly let out a breath.      

He did not know how well Fang Fang's Ice Cream Store would do in the future, but he felt that it would probably not be too bad.      

"Let's go… Her Majesty is waiting for you." From behind Bu Fang, a figure slowly appeared as a cold voice rang out.     

Chi Si's red robe fluttered. Leaning against the wall, her red lips curved up into a slight smile as she watched Bu Fang.     

"You were so insistent on opening the ice cream shop. Could it be that you have no confidence in it?"      

Bu Fang gave her a side glance, then shook his head. "Let's go to the palace. I'm just curious if Fang Fang's Ice Cream Store's first day can crush Spring Wind Pavilion."     

Bu Fang's voice was calm, but it was filled with boundless confidence.     

Chi Si's smile widened, but she did not say anything. A moment later, she whistled, summoning her red dragon from the sky.      

In the next instant, the red dragon flew over and landed on the ground, steam fuming out of its nostrils.      

Chi Si's feet tapped on the ground. Then, her figure floated and landed onto the red dragon's back. She gave Bu Fang a side glance as she said, "Come up."     

Bu Fang raised his brows as he looked at that huge red dragon.      

The red dragon tilted its head as its eyes stared at him.      

Then, without saying anything, he directly walked in front of the red dragon.     

Chi Si originally wanted to see Bu Fang embarrassed for fun. Other than her who had tamed this lawless red dragon, the red dragon did not care about anyone else.     

She was very happy to see Bu Fang embarrassed in front of the red dragon. However, she soon realized that she was wrong.     

The expression on her face stiffened as her gaze was filled with shock.     

That was because when Bu Fang walked over, her red dragon had actually bent down obediently. It even let out a low roar under its breath.     

How is this possible?      

Chi Si's eyes instantly shrank. Why did her red dragon suddenly become so obedient in front of this man?     

Bu Fang reached out his hand, then gently patted the red dragon's head. His figure flashed as the Vermillion Robe fluttered, landing on the red dragon's back. With his hands on his waist, his entire body stood straight like a spear.      

The wind blew, causing the Vermillion Robe on Bu Fang's body to constantly flutter and let out flapping sounds.     

Chi Si recovered her spirits as she suppressed the shock in her heart. Then, she commanded her red dragon to fly, its wings spreading out. With every flap, it would cause a gale.     

The red dragon's speed was extremely fast, but this time, it did not land in front of Dragon Lake. Instead, it passed Dragon Lake and directly flew towards the huge palace gates, landing on the vast square in front of the palace.     

The two jumped off the dragon's back. Then, they stepped into the palace silently.     

The palace was extremely spacious. Compared to the atmosphere of the imperial feast, it was a little empty now.      

Empress Bi Luo sat on the spirit gold throne as she leaned back, her legs crossed over each other. Watching Bu fang and Chi Si come in together, her gaze slightly shook.     

"You're here?" Empress Bi Luo calmly opened her mouth, but her voice was ice-cold.     

Chi Si respectfully raised both her hands against her forehead as she bowed.     

Empress Bi Luo only calmly nodded her head, her gaze landing on Bu fang in the distance.     

Bu Fang's hands lowered as his red-and-white Vermillion Robe fluttered. He walked over, staring calmly at Empress Bi Luo.      

"I'll ask you one last time. Have you truly prepared yourself to enter the God Vanishing Mountain? It's a forbidden land, and with your cultivation, it may be a one-way trip for you. Are you sure you want to go?" Empress Bi Luo's red lips gently opened as she spoke calmly.     

Of course, Bu fang did not hesitate, nodding his head. He had to go to the God Vanishing Mountain.     

Ring…      

Suddenly, Bu Fang's eyes shrank, realizing that Empress Bi Luo had vanished.     

In the next instant, she appeared in front of Bu Fang with a gust of fragrant wind, her scarlet-red robes billowing around her.      

As their eyes met, her figure hovered before him. "Since you have already decided, I won't stop you from entering the forbidden land, the God Vanishing Mountain. There are three things I have to warn you about."     

"First, God Vanishing Mountain is very dangerous. If you meet danger, it's best to turn around and escape. Within a day and night, this Empress can open a gate to bring you back. Beyond that, your life will be left to the heavens."     

"Second, do not disturb that unparalleled existence in the God Vanishing Mountain."     

"Third… slaughter is allowed."     

Empress Bi Luo's voice was clear and filled with authority, completely different from the woman eating ice cream. It was as if they were two different people.     

Bu Fang was stunned, and he furrowed his brows. "Slaughter is allowed… What does that mean?"     

"When you enter the God Vanishing Mountain, you will naturally understand… The so-called forbidden lands naturally have their own laws. Okay, enough of that. The time has come. I'll send you there now," Empress Bi Luo said.     

Hm?      

Bu Fang froze. Could it be that the entrance to God Vanishing Mountain was right in this palace?     

As if to prove Bu Fang's thoughts right, Empress Bi Luo's originally floating body slowly descended.      

Her pale wrist twisted as she constantly made signs.     

Finally, she opened a magic array, smashing it onto the floor.      

Chi Si had already retreated into the distance, her gaze filled with admiration and excitement.     

To the women of Goddess City, the God Vanishing Mountain was not just a forbidden land, but the source of their belief, a divine mountain that belonged to them.     

As the magic array spread out, the floor suddenly turned white.     

The Empress stepped on it barefooted. Her dazzling feet were made even more delicate and cute by the white light.     

Bu Fang deeply sucked in a breath.      

Suddenly, he felt the ground shake.     

The white light below the Empress' feet seemed to be a tightly shut gate, which was opening at this moment.      

A boundless might scattered from inside that gate. It was so powerful that even Chi Si, who was in the distance, involuntarily shook. A moment later, a fanatical look spread across her face.     

This… is the energy of the God Vanishing Mountain!     

Boom! Boom! Boom!     

Suddenly, another light appeared within the light. It swallowed Bu Fang and the Empress' figures in an instant.     

There was only a scorching white left in front of Bu Fang's eyes.     

Empress Bi Luo reached out her slender hand, grabbing Bu Fang's cloth in front of his chest, causing the latter to involuntarily straighten. "Follow this empress closely, or else, this empress will not take responsibility if you get lost."      

Empress Bi Luo's voice seemed to resound in Bu Fang's ears. Her breath was like a fragrant orchid as her energy spread out.     

Bu Fang's brows furrowed, thinking of something to say. However, he was dragged by Empress Bi Luo as they walked into the distance.     

In just a while, he walked out of the blinding brilliance.     

A wave of chilly wind blew over. On the arc of the sky was snow as white as a swan, fluttering down on them.      

A round cave appeared in front of Bu Fang and Empress Bi Luo, and the two flew out from within.      

And what they saw… was a patch of ice and snow.     

This snow was very cold, and the temperature of the air was even lower. When one spoke, white smoke could be seen.      

"We're here. This is the entrance of God Vanishing Mountain, that mountain whose peak you cannot see. Legends say that the God Vanishing Mountain is connected to heaven, but is unknown whether it is true or not. The Spring of Life that you want is also inside," Empress Bi Luo said, pointing her finger at the majestic and massive snowy mountain in the distance.     

The snowy mountain sat there, giving Bu Fang a boundless feeling, causing him to feel a heavy pressure.     

"Okay." Bu Fang nodded his head, his eyes shining with excitement.     

Empress Bi Luo's beautiful eyes landed on Bu Fang as she said, "Have you really decided to go? This empress will ask you one last time. You still have time to regret and return with this empress to Goddess City and watch the opening day of your Fang Fang's Ice Cream Store."      

Bu Fang nodded his head, determined to enter God Vanishing Mountain.      

Without speaking, he walked forward. He raised his hand and gave Empress Bi Luo a wave before his figure vanished in the boundless, icy snowstorm.     

With every footprint left behind, he stepped into the majestic God Vanishing Mountain wrapped by the snowstorm.     

Empress Bi Luo stood on her spot, her scarlet-red robe fluttering in the snowstorm like a scorching flame.     

She did not immediately leave but quietly stood there. Looking at Bu Fang's leaving silhouette, her gaze was complicated.      

"A truly stubborn little chef." Empress Bi Luo bit her red lip as she muttered.     

…      

Sacrificial Hall, Goddess City      

The High Priestess grasped her golden bell scepter as she stared at the light rushing into the sky. She gently let out a breath.     

"Has he finally... left?"     

"I hope you can live and come back from the God Vanishing Mountain…"
