Chapter 1120
Lin Damei grabbed Bu Fang by his shoulder and pulled him out of the hall .
The Vermillion Robe on Bu Fang’s body calmed down, resuming its red-and-white color . The flaming wings behind him subsided and vanished as well .
Lin Damei retracted her hand . With an awkward face, she studied Bu Fang from head to toe . “Man, your name is Bu Fang, right?”
Bu Fang nodded .
If it were possible, Bu Fang hoped that these women would call him by his name . He felt awkward when they referred to him as ‘man . ‘
“Good, I’ll just call you ‘man’ from now on…” Lin Damei grinned .
Bu Fang was speechless .
“Alright, no more joking . Since you’ve accepted Her Majesty’s request, do your best to fulfill it . Anyway, my advice to you is… know your strength . ” While talking, she walked outside the palace .
Bu Fang furrowed his brows and followed her .
“Spring Wind Pavilion is the most prestigious restaurant in Goddess City . Their business is really good . Aside from food, they also do dance and other performances . It’s the place where officials come to relax . So, because of that, you can’t underestimate the dishes there . Of course, they have unique features of attracting many customers . ”
Soon, the two of them got out of the palace and walked by the Dragon Play Lake .
As Lin Damei told Bu Fang things he should pay attention to in Spring Wind Pavilion, the latter nodded continuously .
From Lin Damei’s tone, Bu Fang understood that Spring Wind Pavilion wasn’t just a typical restaurant . After all, Goddess City had so many restaurants, and Spring Wind Pavilion had topped them all to become the most favorable in Goddess City .
Also, since it could serve the Empress’ imperial feast, the chef of Spring Wind Pavilion did have good skills .
“I’m going to treat my subordinates tonight at Spring Wind Pavilion… Do you want to come over and check it out? Later, don’t blame me for not helping you…” Lin Damei coughed and asked . She then anchored her hands at her waist, smiling .
Bu Fang couldn’t help but raise the corners of his lips . He had heard what Lin Damei had told her troop clearly, so wasn’t the banquet to celebrate for catching him?
Hence, Bu Fang wouldn’t go to such a party . It would feel weird indeed .
“Alright, you don’t look like you wanna go, so I’m going to take you to your lodgings then . . . ” Lin Damei shrugged . “Anyway, reminding you of this is an act of kindness already . Since you’re the only man in Goddess City, you should mind your status . If you don’t have anything urgent to do, don’t go out . Don’t let others with bad intentions lay their eyes on you… I heard that men…”
Lin Damei scanned Bu Fang awkwardly, her eyes filled with hidden meaning .
Bu Fang was baffled .
What the heck?
However, Lin Damei didn’t say anything more . Shortly after, she brought Bu Fang to the square and entered the luxurious and lively city .
They turned left, and then right, before they found an ordinary inn in the packed city .
“I’m a little embarrassed . I’ve burned my pocket, so you’ll just stay here for a while . Don’t worry, Goddess City has good security . As long as you don’t run wild, nothing will happen . ” Lin Damei smiled .
“Oh, right, although Her Majesty has given you a chance, there is a deadline . The Goddess Festival of Goddess City is just seven days away . So, if you want to cook for the Empress, you’d better get the qualification within three days because you will need four days to prepare a standard imperial feast…”

“Ah, one more thing, if you are qualified to cook the imperial feast, but your feast doesn’t meet the Empress’ requirement…”
Lin Damei’s voice trailed off as she shot Bu Fang a strange look . After that, she slowly raised her hand, making a cutting gesture at her throat .
Bu Fang felt his scalp go numb with fear .
Lin Damei then curled her lips into a bright smile . She burst into laughter before turning around, leaving Bu Fang staring speechlessly at her departing figure .
“I need to be qualified within three days? Looks like I need to hurry up then . ”
Bu Fang rubbed his chin as he pondered . Then, he started to study the inn .
After studying it for a while, his face darkened .
A lady was glancing at Bu Fang from her counter with sharp eyes .
“The f*ck? A man!” The lady dropped her jaw as she stared at Bu Fang for a long time .
Her voice was like a thunderclap, which startled Bu Fang .
The woman wiped the drool at her mouth and asked, “Man, you’re looking for a room? A superior room costs one hundred Nether crystals…”
Nether crystals . . .
Bu Fang was perplexed . Then, he looked at the black token that Lin Damei had given him .
His mind sank into it, and immediately, he felt the value in the jade talisman .
Five hundred Nether crystals…
Bu Fang’s mouth convulsed as he cursed, ‘That woman is a general, but she’s really unreliable . The situation doesn’t look good at all . ‘
Bu Fang shook his head and decided against checking-in .
Moreover, the inn made him uncomfortable . The look in that lady’s eyes alone had been enough to make him wary and change his mind .
Of course, Bu Fang didn’t have time to stay either . If he wanted to rest, he could come to his farmland with just a single thought . That place was much more comfortable than any inn .
“I have five hundred Nether crystals… Nether crystals must be the currency in the Netherworld . ”
Bu Fang rubbed the jade talisman, the corner of his mouth twitching .
Bu Fang walked out of the inn, and then, he froze .
He found so many eyes gazing at him .
No matter if it were a baby girl, a little girl, a teenager, or an adult woman, they were all staring at him as if they were watching some monster, which made Bu Fang shiver .
Bu Fang quickened his pace . Even if he didn’t mind their looks, he didn’t dare to linger .
“If there are only women in Goddess City, how do they have children?”
Suddenly, a thought popped up in Bu Fang’s head .
The world had Yin and Yang as the two poles . There were men and women, one Yin and one Yang, and that’s how people could reproduce .
Since they were all women, how did they reproduce?
Bu Fang couldn’t figure it out, so he decided not to guess . Anyway, his concern now was how to gain the qualification to cook at the imperial feast .
He put on a black cloak, which concealed his appearance and figure . It was how he kept the others from shooting him smoldering looks .
‘Five hundred Nether crystals, I wonder if it’s enough to have a meal in Spring Wind Pavilion,’ Bu Fang thought . Squeezing the jade talisman in his hand, he began to walk faster .
Spring Wind Pavilion was the biggest restaurant in Goddess City . It was a magnificent and luxurious, tall building .
The building was like a sharp fang, which turned pointier all the way to the top .
As he walked toward Spring Wind Pavilion, Bu Fang saw all the colors of Goddess City .

Although there were only women living here, the lively scenes weren’t less than anywhere else .
In front of Spring Wind Pavilion, the female guards were watching . They all looked very intimidating, which made this place not look like a restaurant where people came to eat .
Bu Fang stood in a corner, watching Spring Wind Pavilion .
All of a sudden, Bu Fang was surprised as he spotted a troop of soldiers and their mounts, with Lin Damei laughing in their midst .
When the group of women came in front of Spring Wind Pavilion, Lin Damei smiled and greeted a beautiful woman, who had just walked out of the restaurant . Then, she brought her troop and entered .
Of course, as some people were getting inside Spring Wind Pavilion, some were heading out . Reeking with a smell of liquor, many drunk women were staggering out of the place .
After a while, a giant red dragon flapped its wings and landed in front of Spring Wind Pavilion .
The guards stepped aside immediately, and the beautiful woman who had just greeted Lin Damei hurried out .
Then, an elegant woman wearing a crimson robe gently alighted from the red dragon .
Although she wasn’t as beautiful as the Empress, she was very pretty, and she seemed to have a noble position since the beautiful woman escorted her to the restaurant .
The guards dispersed and moved to welcome the woman who rode the red dragon .
Bu Fang exhaled .
Roar!
The red dragon was fiercer than the green dragon . Since it was staying in front of Spring Wind Pavilion, not many people dared to come close .
The horrible aura from the red dragon diffused . Light shone on the metal-like dragon scales, which looked so sharp .
The red dragon’s snout fumed smoke . Then, it lay on the ground, coiling .
Bu Fang looked at the red dragon and mumbled, “Not a bad ingredient . ”
The red dragon wasn’t bad, but it was a little worse than the candle dragon he had seen . Previously, he had seen Ying Long in the Immortal Cooking Realm, which was also better than this one .
However, Bu Fang was clear that the red dragon had a lot of True Dragon’s blood .
“It could be a dish in the imperial feast…” Bu Fang said, feeling glad himself .
Then, he clasped his hands . Shrouded inside the black cloak, he strolled away and headed toward the entrance of Spring Wind Pavilion .
The red dragon was fierce indeed . Its head was fuming with smoke, which seemed hot enough to melt the ground .
All of a sudden, the red dragon’s eyes locked onto Bu Fang, who was hiding in the black cloak .
Someone dared to walk in front of its face?!
The red dragon slightly parted its snout, diffusing a faint flame as it gazed at Bu Fang .
Right when Bu Fang walked past the red dragon, it became enraged .
With a grumble, it got up from the ground, raised its head, and opened its mouth, attempting to roar at Bu Fang .
Bu Fang stopped walking .
Many people around took in a breath of cold air . They looked at Bu Fang as if they were looking at a dead man .
There were so many ways to go through, so why would that man have to walk in front of the red dragon?
The Scarlet Dragon Great General was hot-tempered, a fact that the entire city knew .
The red dragon’s wings flapped once . Immediately, a blast of wind hit him .
Bu Fang raised his brows, indifferently cocking his head to one side to cast the red dragon a sidelong glance .
In his spirit sea, the Golden Divine Dragon roared ear-piercingly, reaching through nine tiers of the sky .
As Bu Fang gazed at the red dragon, it seemed like a divine, gold dragon was twirling inside his eyes .
The prestige of a dragon expanded immediately…
Gold light shot everywhere .
The red dragon was about to roar but couldn’t make a sound . Under the dragon prestige from Bu Fang, it lay on the ground and didn’t even wiggle or wag its tail…
The red dragon looked at Bu Fang with fear and respect in its eyes, and also… adoration?
Err?
Bu Fang was a little bewildered .
Right after that, his mouth twitched once . The dragons in Goddess City seemed to be all females… He had used the Golden Divine Dragon’s might to subdue them, so . . . the Divine God Dragon… was a f*cking powerful male!
Exhaling, he nodded to the red dragon .
Bu Fang clasped his hands . He didn’t blush, and his heart didn’t even beat faster as he headed to Spring Wind Pavilion .
The guards at Spring Wind Pavilion were all baffled .
Who was that? He had subdued the Scarlet Dragon Great General…
While still gobsmacked, the guards forgot to ask for Bu Fang’s identity . When they finally snapped to their senses, Bu Fang had already disappeared into the restaurant .
Everybody was so scared as they watched the red dragon lying on the ground, licking its claws…
The well-behaved red dragon didn’t match with the terrifying Scarlet Dragon Great General in their memories .
That person in black… Who was that?
…
A loud knock reverberated in front of the city’s gate . It seemed to be deafening in the quiet night .
The two female guards exchanged looks in doubt .
Who would knock on the city’s doors at midnight?
Boom!
The two guards jumped down from the high city wall . They landed with a rumble, causing clouds of dust to rise .
Creak .
They opened the doors, looking at the slit as they gripped their lances .
There, a figure was walking beautifully like a cat .
What?
The two guards were astounded .
When the light shone, they finally saw the other’s face .
That person’s face was covered in white powder, which seemed about to fall off from her face . She even had two big and round red patches on her cheeks, and her bright red lips made the guards shiver .
As she sashayed towards the doors, her curly hair cascaded and swayed . Her breasts were round and high, and her rough figure was emphasized by her long dress .
“Oh, you two guards, I, a little girl, have been walking for a long time . Finally, I found the city . ” The woman twisted her handkerchief as she spoke, her voice flat and dry .
The two guards were bewildered .
“It’s late at night, and you are dressed like that, neither like a human nor a ghost . What are you doing here?” The guard frowned, wielding her lance to stop the woman .
“Who doesn’t look like a human or a ghost? This king… Ah, I’m dressed very well! If you don’t have a sophisticated taste, please shut your mouth!” The woman rolled her eyes, and when she did that, powder started to fall off her face .
The two guards now had goosebumps .
“No, you’re acting strange . Follow us!”
“Ohhh! You’re bullying a maiden from a kind family! Drop it!”
The woman became restless and hasty . All of a sudden, a wave of Nether energy blasted from her body as she disappeared .
Before the guards could react, her fingers had touched their glabella .
The guards slumped in just a blink of an eye .
After dealing with the two guards, the woman exhaled . She kicked her embroidered shoes away, revealing big feet that stomped on the ground .
With a swish, her long dress was torn, exposing hairy legs .
“A female disguise doesn’t fit me well . That nudist maniac in the Immortal Cooking Realm is more suitable for this costume . Anyway, I’m lucky that I’m finally in Goddess City . Let’s find that Bu Fang young man first . Bu Fang, you should never let Bi Luo behead you . ”
Holding his torn dress, Nether King Er Ha immediately strode into the city .
Outside, white-haired Old Tie was holding an eyebrow pencil, trembling in fear and shock .

He murmured, his lips only inches from my own.I blinked, my lips parting, as his heady scent encircled me.

The heat of his bare chest seeped through my thin cotton shirt, thawing my icy irritation."Even when you're being cross." He added in a low voice. He leaned closer, before I could respond, and ran his teeth along my jaw.I suppressed a moan. "I wouldn't be cross if you weren't so keen on irritating me." I said, unable to hide the smile in my voice.I felt his answering smile against my neck. "How can I make it up to you?" He whispered, planting gentle kisses up and down the column of my throat.
