Chapter 815: 815
Two crescent moons hung in the sky, emanating chilling bright light . The moonlight was like a flimsy silk curtain dangling in the air, covering the entire place in a silvery hue .
Bu Fang stood at the entrance, preparing to close the Taotie Restaurant’s doors . Then, he saw Mo Liuji standing with a girl covered in a thin silk dress not far from his door .
Even though that lady was wearing a veil, Bu Fang thought that she seemed familiar . He felt as though he had seen her somewhere before . That feeling of familiarity made Bu Fang widen his eyes to take in the form of the lady clearer .
Mo Liuji curled his lips, heading toward the restaurant .
As the Heavenly Secret Saintess had triggered his urges, his heart now longed for good wine . He had heard that Owner Bu’s restaurant had better wine than the one on his bamboo flask . That was why for a wine connoisseur, it was a huge temptation .
Indeed, it would be hard to resist this temptation .
“Hi, Owner Bu… Long time no see . I’m back,” said Mo Liuji as he greeted Bu Fang .
Bu Fang leaned against the door, looking at Mo Liuji, who had his shirt open at his chest . He said casually, “Why are you back? I’m not going to that Heavenly Secret something with you . I’m not going to see Granny Mo either . ”
Granny Mo?
Standing behind Mo Liuji, the Heavenly Secret Saintess was bewildered . She curiously turned to look at Mo Liuji and asked, “Why did Granny Mo want to see Owner Bu?”
Mo Liuji’s body went stiff . He turned to the Saintess, saying, “My dear Saintess Your Highness, Granny Mo cares about you . You’re our Heavenly Secret Holy Land’s treasure . We need to count on you to control the Heavenly Star Catcher Disk . Of course, we can’t let any mishap happen to you . Owner Bu is your heart… well, you know . ” Mo Liuji’s brows rose, revealing a subtle smile after saying that .
The Heavenly Secret Saintess fell silent immediately . She vaguely understood something…
Shaking her head, her eyes fell on Bu Fang, which felt very familiar to the latter .
The Saintess’ and Bu Fang’s eyes met for a while . They both remained calm .
A moment later, the Heavenly Secret Saintess nodded briefly, turned around, and left .
Mo Liuji was dumbfounded . What about the wine?
The Saintess and wine… Which one was more important?
Mo Liuji counted with his fingers . His wine was more important .
Thus, Mo Liuji turned around, licking his lips and beaming brightly at Bu Fang .
“Owner Bu…”
Bam!
A loud bang echoed . Mo Liuji immediately shrieked .
He took several steps backward, covering his nose with his hand . Then, he squatted down, dejected .
The door was slammed on his nose, and he thought he had heard something crack .
The pain in his nose made Mo Liuji’s tears flow .
He just wanted to drink a glass of wine . Only a glass of wine .
“Our business has ended today . If you want to eat something, come earlier tomorrow… to queue,” said Bu Fang in a faint voice .
Mo Liuji was covering his nose, giving it a tender massage . Hearing Bu Fang’s voice from within the restaurant, he was astounded .

We are friends, and you want me to come back tomorrow to queue? Owner Bu… You annoying little goblin!
Getting up, Mo Liuji’s nose was red and swollen . Tears lingered in the corners of his eyes . He carefully stepped away from the Taotie Restaurant .
He thought that he should just head to Wenren Shang’s restaurant . Even if he could not have Owner Bu’s wine, he should drink Wenren Shang’s bamboo flask wine .
And now, he seemed to understand why the Heavenly Secret Saintess had left before him . She didn’t ask Bu Fang to enter the restaurant .
Her Highness seemed to know that Owner Bu would chase them away beforehand .
…
The Heavenly Secret Saintess found an inn . In the Gluttony God City, what they had the most were restaurants and inns . Of course, the inns themselves also had their own restaurant .
The chefs in the hotels weren’t bad . Perhaps they weren’t as excellent as the chefs of the restaurants in the Gluttony God City, but they were much better than the chefs in the villages outside the city .
The worst of them was at least a second-grade chef .
Heavenly Secret Saintess found an accomodation not far from Bu Fang’s restaurant . When she opened her window, she could even see the light from Owner Bu’s restaurant .
The Saintess’ eyes focused . Leaning on the window sill, she was caught in a little daze watching the Taotie Restaurant .
…
Inside the Taotie Restaurant
The light was still on .
Chu Changsheng had returned to his room way beforehand and lazily snored . Ever since he had started his job as a waiter, what he loved to do most was to eat and sleep .
This regular working and resting schedule had gradually made Chu Changsheng’s aura steadier . Even his skin was shining with vigor .
At this moment, Chu Changsheng was a peak Almighty at the Half Step Divine Spirit Realm . He had condensed his Divine Altar and was now waiting to ignite his divine flame .
However, to ignite the divine flame, he needed to slowly accumulate more energy . It was not something that could be done by simply putting in a lot of effort .
Thus, he couldn’t rush . Every day, Chu Changsheng rested to recover and accumulate his vitality, waiting for the moment to light up his divine flame .
Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Bu Fang was still practicing his cooking skills .
As his cooking skills increased, Bu Fang increasingly felt the arduousness of embarking on the path to becoming the God of Cooking . This was due to the fact that each recipe had gradually gotten much more difficult than the previous one .
The existence of different cooking methods had excited Bu Fang’s spirit .
Practicing his knife skills, training his Four Symbols Fire Control Skill, and cooking using mental force was equally stimulating .
Besides running the restaurant each day, Bu Fang had spent his remaining time to practice those skills .
Although he had the system, Bu Fang understood clearly that without putting in any effort, the system could not help him in anything .
Only through endless practice would he grow and grasp the opportunities available to him .
There were no free meals in this world . That was why if he wanted to make his cooking skills better, he needed to practice even more .

Boom! Boom!
A dark gold flame emerged on Bu Fang’s palm . It was the mysterious Heaven and Earth Obsidian Flame after being completely fused together .
With high heat and intelligence, it moved through Bu Fang’s palm . Sometimes, as Bu Fang willed it, it would become a roaring fire dragon, raising claws and baring its fangs .
After practicing the Four Symbols Fire Control skill for a while, Bu Fang exhaled gently . He had finished his practice session for the day .
He took out an Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine from the cold cabinet, pouring a glass for himself .
Leaning against the kitchen counter, Bu Fang gulped down the chilly Ice Heart Jade Um Wine . As the wine ran down his throat to his stomach, the cool and refreshing feeling expanded throughout his body, making him exhale comfortably .
It seemed his tiredness was swept away by the wine as well .
Rubbing his glass of wine, Bu Fang sank into his thoughts .
The Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine was the first wine Bu Fang had made using the nine-fermentation method . As his competence increased, he used more precious ingredients to make this wine . And now, the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine tasted much better day after day .
However, Bu Fang no longer felt the amazing feeling he did when he drank the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine for the first time .
His mind flickered as he thought about the recent reward he had received—the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine .
That system had described this wine with high praise . It was much better than the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine and the Frost Blaze Path-Understanding Brew .
It was a wine that could move Bu Fang’s heart .
Bu Fang could be seen as a wine enthusiast . As such, naturally, he had an unbearable urge to taste the good wine .
Placing down his glass, Bu Fang looked pensive .
“Seems like I should find a chance to make the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine,” said Bu Fang as he rubbed his chin .
However, the ingredients to make the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine were all in the Netherworld…
Going to the Netherworld… Bu Fang squinted, hesitating .
…
Heavenly Secret Holy Land
The thick, dark clouds rolled, covering everything in its path .
The darkness had descended, driving people into disarray .
However, a Divine Altar had appeared in the sky . On the Divine Altar, two divine flames were flickering, blooming the pinnacle of their radiance as they sliced through the darkness .
In the void, Mo Cha’s skin had turned entirely scarlet . The black wings on his black flapped as he held a black trident, which contained surging energy .
“Divine Spirit Realm granny… Too old to eat . What a shame!” exclaimed Mo Cha . His scarlet eyes had a gleam of regret . But then, after being regretful for a while, his eyes turned to the crowd of Heavenly Secret Holy Land disciples underneath .
He grinned .
“But there are so many soft and tender little fellows down there… Looks like I can have my fill today . ”
“Filthy animals! You dare swagger in the Heavenly Secret Holy Land . I will make sure you never leave this place alive!”
Granny Mo held up her staff, hovering proudly in the sky . Although her body was old, her spirit burned brightly . The Divine Altar above her head had the Divine Flames shooting their energy up into the sky .
The entire space was enveloped in her aura .
“You stinky grandma! You’re about to die . Don’t try to act cool!” Mo Cha shouted coldly . A moment later, his wings flapped once . Immediately, he became a jet of black lights, which darted forward .
The trident stabbed ahead of him . The air was torn apart as he pierced through it!
“Muahahahaha! This piece of space is so flimsy! Old grandma! Die!” Mo Cha laughed loudly, his eyes burning a fiery red .
Boom!
Granny Mo was still hovering proudly . The trident reached and stopped several inches in front of her, frozen in place .
Sharp energy began gushing continuously .
Granny Mo made her signature orchid-finger gesture . Her eyes focused as starlight fell around her, blooming with incandescence . Then, they proceeded forward fiercely .
Mo Cha’s body was blown backward .
However, Mo Cha still let out a chilling laugh as he was being sent backward, making people shudder .
A moment later, his body split into numerous clones in the air . His clones simultaneously opened their mouths, his voice reverberating throughout the entire area .
“Kill!”
Mo Cha’s clones moved, dashing in a dense pack toward Granny Mo!
“Mo Sa, go and join him . Attack fast and win fast!” Mo Ye, the man with two vertical eyes, spoke .
After he finished speaking, Mo Sa roared and stormed out from behind him . His giant body was like a mountain, crushing and barging relentlessly .
The metal rings on his horns clanged against each other noisily .
He had the power to level mountains!
As he launched a punch forward, his veiny muscles on his arms bulged .
He fiercely pounded on Granny Mo’s star protection ring .
Buzz… .
Beams of starlight bloomed . Mo Cha struck endlessly with his trident while Mo Sa, the beast, pounded relentlessly .
The star protection ring couldn’t bear it any longer .
Granny Mo’s eyes remained indifferent . The divine flames flickered above her Divine Altar .
“You two animals have the guts to invade our Heavenly Secret Holy Land . Since you like it so much, stay here then . ”
From Granny Mo’s mouth, mysterious sounds arose . Her entire body bloomed with light, which reached up into the sky . It broke through the darkness, resonating with the stars above .
Twinkling starlight fell, twirling around Granny Mo’s body .
“Heavenly Secret Demon Subduing Technique . ”
Buzz!
Granny Mo’s staff transformed instantly into a long mace . Her old, wrinkled skin slowly stretched and whitened . Slowly, her form straightened, becoming beautiful .
Her long, black hair fanned as she regained her youthful look .
Thick vitality rose and coiled around Granny Mo .
“Younger! Tastier!” Mo Sa’s eyes stared, his mouth forming a big grin .
Mo Cha also drooled .
In the twinkling starlight, her hair cascaded down her back . Her entire body glowed under the starlight .
Granny Mo’s gaze was cold and unforgiving . Her exquisite hand lifted the long mace and swung it toward the two Netherworld creatures .

Killstealer
Unfinished - Apologies to anyone who was reading but I have no current intentions to revisit this story Alex was stuck in a rut: He was nearing thirty, and his career seemed to be going no-where; He used to have plenty of friends at university, but had gradually lost touch with them. He had recently started using a dating site, but truthfully he never quite got over his ex. It could be worse; he didn't spend his nights wallowing in self pity. However, he had a sinking feeling that his life was going no-where fast. When Alex decided to take up an old hobby all he really was looking for was something fun to do on friday nights. Thrust into another world by a mad mage Alex must adapt quickly to survive. Unfortunately, Alex showed up late to game night and ends up stuck with a pretty mediocre character in this game like reality. Alex must learn to survive in this new world; just because it all seems like a giant game doesn't make death any less terrifying. This will be my first attempt at writing litrpg. I wanted to set myself the challenge of writing every week and I think knowing people might be reading it will motivate me. I've always worked much better with external deadlines. FAQ Why should I read this LitRPG? I am writing because I enjoy it and you should read it if you enjoy it. If I had to make an elevator pitch I would start off by saying my MC is a rogue type character, which seems a relatively uncommon character at least based on what I have read. I also strive to make the supporting cast three dimensional characters, and not just caricatures. Finally, I can't forget that this is a LitRPG so I have tried to make a RPG system with depth, and one that makes sense. How often will you release chapters? At least once a week is my goal. I am a nurse with a baby at home, so between my hospital and my baby I won't have time for more unless something dramatically changes. Will there be romance? I won't rule it out as I try to let my characters write their own stories. However, there will NEVER be a harem, it just isn't something I am interested in. Gore, Profanity, and Traumatising Content? I don't intend to have any of these present at obscene levels, but my tolerance might be different to yours. The tags are mostly there to cover me.
