The Law of Life?!
Both the Divine Emperor and the other officials present were appalled. Everyone stared at Er Ha in wonder. At the moment, he looked like a peerless immortal banished from heaven; his body was surrounded in streams of white gas as if a powerful life force could gush out of him with just a thought in his mind.
Yes, this was indeed the Law of Life. No one in the Xiayi Divine Dynasty had ever comprehended the Law of Life. Even someone as genius as the Crown Prince comprehended only the Law of Space and the Law of Destruction, for it was the most mysterious Law under the Law of Transmigration.
All the people present gasped as they stared at Er Ha with shining eyes, shocked by the fact that a Demigod had comprehended the Law of Life.
Gold Armor looked emotional. It never occurred to him that Er Ha would comprehend the Law of Life at this moment. ‘This restaurant is full of… geniuses,’ he thought to himself. ‘Whether it’s the black dog lying on the ground, the fox that ate the Heavengod’s blood, or the owner… they all have amazing talents… Even that girl is a Cursed Goddess.’
Bu Fang looked at Er Ha with a straight face. He was quite surprised, if truth be told. He thought this fellow would comprehend some weird Law.
The fluctuation of the breakthrough didn’t last long. Soon, Er Ha’s aura slowly settled down. When he opened his eyes, there was a white light swirling in them. He stretched, and a cracking sound came from his body.
He had broken through at last! He, Nether King Er Ha, was now also a Demigod! He had surpassed his father, Tian Cang! He was the best!
‘Ugh?’ Er Ha suddenly felt a little strange, and then he noticed that several powerful auras were locking his body. He looked up and saw Gold Armor, the Divine Emperor, Bu Fang, and the others all staring at him, putting a lot of pressure on him.
He blinked and thought, ‘Are these people jealous of my handsome appearance?’
“The Law of Life?”
There was a hint of excitement on the Divine Emperor’s old face. When Er Ha saw this expression, he felt a surge of terror. He felt as if he had been stripped naked under the Divine Emperor’s fiery gaze.
‘I’m straight, not bent! Your Majesty… please behave yourself!’ Er Ha growled in his heart.
“It’s a pity that you are only beginning to comprehend the Law of Life, and you have just broken through the Demigod realm… Your understanding of the Law of Life has not yet reached a very profound level, so you can’t help me suppress my great catastrophe,” the Divine Emperor said with emotion. Then, he walked up to Er Ha, raised his hand, and put the latter’s hand on his palm.
Er Ha’s pupils constricted immediately. In his divine sense, he felt an immense aura coming toward him… That was the Divine Emperor’s power and aura! He gasped, utterly admiring the old man in front of him.
However, after comprehending the Law of Life, Er Ha could sense a black hole rotating in the Divine Emperor’s body. It seemed to be devouring everything, constantly swallowing his vitality, mind, spirit, and soul. He even felt a great catastrophe brewing in it!
The Divine Emperor withdrew his palm and sighed. He patted Er Ha on the head, then turned his eyes to Bu Fang. Although Er Ha comprehended the Law of Life, his strength was too weak to be of any use to him. In his opinion, Er Ha was not as effective as Bu Fang’s fried oyster pancake.
In the whole Chaotic Universe, besides the Heavengod of Life, the only person who had cultivated the Law of Life to its peak was the Immortal Empress of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty. However, there was no way she would travel hundreds of millions of miles to the Xiayi Divine Dynasty to save the Divine Emperor. After all, as the rulers of the divine dynasties, their every move could cause terrible changes.
The fried oyster pancake actually didn’t contain too much Law of Life, and yet it could suppress the Divine Emperor’s great catastrophe. That was something Bu Fang had not expected.
The surrounding courtiers all stared emotionally at Bu Fang. The Divine Emperor represented the Xiayi Divine Dynasty. Once he died, the whole dynasty would fall into a period of decline for at least hundreds of years. This would also be the most precarious period for the dynasty.
At this time in the past, the crown prince of that era had grown up and been able to take the lead. However, the crown prince of this generation was still stuck in the Demigod realm because of his amazing talent and had not broken through to the God realm. Therefore, the divine dynasty was in a very dangerous situation.
Both the Titan Divine Dynasty and the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty were likely to take this opportunity to launch attacks and bring down the Xiayi Divine Dynasty.
Besides, once the Divine Emperor was gone, the current crown prince might not be able to suppress those first-class great worlds within the dynasty, such as the Dragon Valley and the Phoenix Nest. If these great worlds rebelled, the Xiayi Divine Dynasty—without the Divine Emperor—might not be able to put them down.
So if Bu Fang could suppress the Divine Emperor’s great catastrophe, it would be of great merit to the whole Xiayi Divine Dynasty.
Bu Fang poured a glass of wine and handed it to the Divine Emperor. That was the Yellow Spring Helplessness Wine. Brewed with the Spring of Life, it should contain more aura of the Law of Life than the fried oyster pancake. The first thing he needed to determine was whether it was the Spring of Life that suppressed the Divine Emperor’s great catastrophe.
The Divine Emperor drank the wine containing a rich aura of life without hesitation. Then, with all the courtiers watching, he quickly shook his head. “It’s good wine, but unfortunately… it cannot suppress the great catastrophe in my body like that fried oyster pancake.”
He sighed and smacked his lips. He was also a wine lover. If drinking could cure diseases, that would be the perfect news for him.
Bu Fang nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that only the fried oyster pancake was effective. Perhaps the soaked oysters had purified the Law of Life? He didn’t quite understand either.
The Divine Emperor and the others didn’t stay long in the restaurant. They just came for the fried oyster pancake. After learning that it was not available, he noted down the time Bu Fang would cook it tomorrow and left.
Some courtiers chose to stay to enjoy the delicious food and only left after they were content.

The Crown Prince seemed to be getting more and more comfortable with the job of a waiter. Perhaps after serving once, it was easier to accept the second time. In short, he was no longer so resistant.
Of course, he was still a little proud. Unless the Divine Emperor came, he was very cold when facing other diners. He would not say a word and just silently do the waiter’s work.
…
It was late at night, and the restaurant door was closed.
The Crown Prince took off his uniform and looked coldly at Bu Fang as the latter walked out of the kitchen. He snorted proudly, then turned, walked to the door, and whistled.
From the sky came an extremely luxurious warship. As a crown prince, his warship was naturally luxurious and extraordinary. With a whiz, the warship turned into a stream of light and sped toward the distance.
Bu Fang watched speechlessly as the Crown Prince left. He had thought of asking him to join them for dinner, but now that he had left, he couldn’t do anything.
He turned back to the kitchen, then brought out a bowl of steaming, delicious spicy blood lobsters and put it on the table. Nethery, Er Ha, Lord Dog, and the others all gathered around. After eating and drinking, everyone went to do their own things. Some went to cultivate, while some went to sleep…
Time passed slowly in such days. Bu Fang opened the restaurant every day, and he was filled with unspeakable pleasure as he watched the turnover grow steadily.
No one dared to come to the restaurant to make trouble because the Divine Emperor was watching over it. Bu Fang would sometimes study new dishes, and if he had nothing to do in his spare time, he would go to the ancient Heavengod’s inheritance in the Divine Chef Temple to solve the seals.
However, the following seal was very difficult, and he couldn’t crack it for the time being unless his cultivation base broke through to the God realm. He was not in a hurry, though.
Summer left the capital of the divine dynasty six months ago. According to her, she was heading for the relics of the ancient Heavengod to break through to a higher realm.
Bu Fang felt a little disappointed about this. If she had stayed in the restaurant, she would have been enough of a deterrent to those who have malicious intentions. Besides, with her gone, he now had to face those elders of the Divine Chef Temple himself.
So he just stayed in the restaurant every day. When he had nothing to do, he would lean on the balcony at the back of the restaurant or lie in a rocking chair.
Every time the Crown Prince saw Bu Fang like this, he would secretly scold the latter for not making progress. He regarded his defeat to Bu Fang as a great humiliation in his life, and he couldn’t believe he had been beaten by such an unmotivated fellow!
After the first morning court meeting, the divine dynasty had dispatched a large troop of heavily armed and armored soldiers. They rushed into the ancient Heavengod’s relics, while other warriors descended on the great worlds around the divine dynasty in search of the terrifying creature the Divine Emperor spoke of.
Bu Fang was also very concerned about the news. After all, it was this creature that separated him, Lord Dog, and the others.
The first month of the search did not yield any results. No one had found that horrible creature. But the Divine Emperor wasn’t discouraged. People who were approaching a great catastrophe would always have an inexplicable sense of urgency for this kind of disaster. Therefore, the search continued.
The next month, the soldiers finally found a trace of the creature.
A third-class great world around the Xiayi Divine Dynasty was completely turned into a ruin. All the living things in it died, leaving only strange black orbs that covered the entire surface of that world…
When the divine dynasty’s warriors descended on that world, they were attacked. Creatures very similar to what the Divine Emperor had described ambushed them.
A fierce battle broke out at once. It was a bitter battle, a one-sided massacre. In the lair of this horrible creature, the team of warriors was completely wiped out, leaving only their captain, who was a high-grade God, to flee back to the divine dynasty’s capital like a madman…
The incident caused a storm in the entire divine dynasty.
As soon as the leader returned to the capital, he reported to the court. However, the moment he finished his report, his body burst apart, and there was actually a black orb breeding in him.
The orb burst in the blink of an eye and a horrible creature appeared in the court hall, rushing frantically toward the Divine Emperor sitting on his throne. However, it was instantly crushed by the Divine Emperor with a finger. Although the creature was dead, the Divine Emperor still looked worried because that was not good news.
At the same time, the army searching the ancient Heavengod’s relics also sent back the news.
There were many experts in the relics, and they were basically all God Kings, so the situation of everyone being killed by the horrible creatures didn’t happen. However, the situation was not looking good either. Many God Kings had died, and even their bodies had disappeared.
Each of the three divine dynasties had a relic of an ancient Heavengod…
As soon as the news was received, the Divine Emperor immediately had it passed on to the divine emperors of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty and the Titan Divine Dynasty. Later, the two divine emperors replied that they had found no such creatures in their territories and said that they would send emissaries to the Xiayi Divine Dynasty.
The arrival of the two emissaries angered the Divine Emperor of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty.
Although they said they were here to help the Xiayi Divine Dynasty, they were actually here to spy on the situation. How could the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty and the Titan Divine Dynasty not be tempted when the Divine Emperor was approaching the end of his life and the Xiayi Divine Dynasty was facing a crisis caused by such creatures?
In 13,600 of the Xiayi calendar, the emissaries of the Immortal Spirit Divine Dynasty and the Titan Divine Dynasty entered the capital of the Xiayi Divine Dynasty.
That day, at dawn, Bu Fang opened the restaurant door…
