Chapter 1785: A Dish on the Coffin

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The towering Stairway of Star rumbled as it split in the middle. A terrible aura pervaded heaven and earth, and the palace trembled violently. It was as if a supreme being was about to wake up.

All the people were terrified by the aura, and they wondered what was about to happen. Perhaps only Bu Fang, the little girl, the three dukes, and Nethery understood the meaning of this, for they knew the Queen of Curses’ body was buried under the stairway. Was she about to come out?

Knowing that her coattails were about to show up, Cursey’s chubby face beamed with excitement.

Bu Fang watched as the stairway split and the throne at its top cracked. He, too, was looking forward to meeting the Queen of Curses. What did the master of Void City who awed the multi-universes look like? What was so amazing about the woman who was so deeply tied to the God of Cooking?

The Soul Demons, on the other hand, felt insecure as if a great terror was about to descend. Sloth Great Soul Overlord, who was still inside the rift in the sky, paused his movements and cast a lazy glance at the stairway, his aura rumbling. Apparently, even a mighty being like him was curious about the Queen of Curses.

The faceless man cocked his head. He was quite interested in the aura bursting out of the stairway because he found it very familiar.

Behind him, Soul’s face fell. The three dukes did not tell her what was under the throne, but she knew it already. It was the reason why she wanted to sit on the throne.

“The Queen of Curses!” she murmured under her breath. She could not help but shudder, knowing that the Queen was an existence on the same level as the Soul God.

Standing on the Netherworld Ship, Nethery was calm and poised. The pure, black curse power lingered around her and bloomed quietly like a flower.

Many people in Void City did not know what was about to happen, but they knew it must be something big. Lord Dog, Er Ha, and the others all fixed their eyes on the splitting stairway with their mouths wide open.

Suddenly, the rumbling sound stopped. The next moment, the water in the River of Curses within Void City rushed up into the sky, turned into a dragon, and plunged into the crack on the Stairway of Star. As the water gathered, a coffin slowly emerged from the crack.

It was a bronze coffin carved with countless patterns. However, what terrified all was that... There was a dish on the lid of the coffin, and faint wisps of steam were still rising from it!

Everyone was dumbfounded, including Bu Fang and Nethery, perhaps except the faceless man because he did not have facial features. The other people all opened their mouths wide and froze.

The corner of Bu Fang’s mouth twitched. ‘Fairy tales are full of lies...’ he thought to himself. ‘They said the Queen of Curses hated food and chefs... But why is there a dish on the lid of her coffin?!’

Nethery’s lips parted slightly as she stared at the dish. Clearly, she also did not expect to see this. Cursey’s eyes lit up, however. Squinting, she twitched her little nose. It smelled like the dish she had tasted before.

Meanwhile, Lord Dog and Er Ha rolled their eyes. They already had a hunch that the Queen of Curses was actually a glutton too, one who had been hurt by a chef. It appeared that it was no accident that Nethery was able to succeed to the throne, and Soul did not lose for no reason. Her biggest mistake was probably that she did not have a chef supporting her.

Bu Fang wanted to feel the dish. It looked normal, without dazzling light or bursting spiritual energy. In fact, it appeared just like a home-cooked dish. However, this common-looking dish had attracted all eyes as if it was the most beautiful light in the universe. Even Bu Fang had a strong desire rushed up from the bottom of his heart.

‘What kind of dish is that?!’ Bu Fang was shocked. He could not believe that he was unknowingly attracted to it. ‘Could it be a dish cooked by the God of Cooking?!’ His mental force could not get close to the coffin as if it was blocked by a barrier.

Lord Dog licked his paw and said, “I... couldn’t help but think of Bu Fang boy’s Sweet ‘n’ Sour Ribs.”

Er Ha held a spicy strip between his lips, and his eyes were misty. “Give me a ton of spicy strips so I can eat until the end of time!”

Cursey narrowed her eyes, leaned slightly forward, and kept twitching her little nose. Foxy’s eyes gleamed, her mouth watering and her tails wagging. Lying on Bu Fang’s shoulder, Shrimpy calmly blew a bubble.

The whole city was attracted by the coffin, and the people were in an uproar. What was inside the coffin? Was it the Queen of Curses? Nobody knew the answer.

In the sky, Sloth Great Soul Overlord took a deep breath and withdrew his hand, while all the Soul Demons held their breath and did not dare to make any noise. If the Queen of Curses was really inside that coffin, and if she struck out, none of them would be able to escape.

With the appearance of the coffin, the faceless man stopped attacking. Suddenly, he took a step forward.

Nethery frowned. Then, she lifted her slender hand and gently closed her palm into a fist as if she was clutching at the void. At the gesture, the Flower of Nothingness expanded.

The Soul Demons screamed for help, terrified. Strands of pure curse power tangled them, making them almost suffocate. It kept irritating their skins, causing their hearts to contract.

Soul’s face was blank—she did not know what to do. She, too, was tangled by the power. It seemed that life and death had left her. Now, with just a thought from Nethery, her body would be torn to pieces and turned into nothingness. She did not want to die! She wanted to accompany the man!

“Your Excellency... Save me!”

Terror filled Soul’s eyes as she pleaded with the faceless man to save her. She had never asked for help—she would only do so in front of the faceless man because she trusted him. In the past, he had rescued her and brought her hopes when she pleaded with him.

But this time... she was disappointed. The faceless man did not turn around. Instead, he walked step by step toward the coffin hovering in midair in the distance. It was as if a mysterious aura was attracting him.

“Stop!” Nethery shouted, frowning. However, the faceless man pressed on as if he did not hear her. She tightened her grip.

The Soul Demons howled in horror. They found that their flesh was crumbling, and even their minds were fading. The curse power seemed to melt their bodies. It was the same for the three Great Soul Overlords. Perhaps Sloth Great Soul Overlord was the only one who was not affected by it.

“I know what it is now!” Cursey, who kept twitching her nose and almost floated into the air, suddenly cried out, her eyes lighting up. “It is an array constructed by the Queen of Curses called A Flower in Nothingness!” As the clone of the Queen’s will, she possessed some of her memories. They were vague, though.

That gave Bu Fang pause. The Queen used her coffin as the core of the array? But then he had to say that the array’s name was really... ugly.

Nethery frowned as she watched the faceless man walk. He was getting closer and closer to the coffin. There was a mighty force around the coffin that was pushing at him. The curse power kept tangling him, but he kept ripping them apart with his single arm.

At last, he came in front of the coffin and seemed to be staring at the dish on the lid. Suddenly, he roared, his voice sounding angry and full of grief.

Nethery’s face flickered. Stepping on the Netherworld Ship, she came in front of the faceless man. A rumbling sound echoed out as the power of Great Sins turned into a large hand and slapped toward her. Nethery’s cursed snakes rushed up and collided with it.

A deafening boom shook the whole Void City and shocked everyone.

“Can Nethery beat him?” Er Ha said.

“Do you want to take her place?” Lord Dog gave Er Ha a sideways glance.

Er Ha smiled wryly and shut his mouth. Although he was Heavengod Life, he could not withstand the faceless man’s spears.

The faceless man reached out his hand to grab the dish on the coffin, which had wisps of hot steam twisting like tiny snakes over it. As he drew closer, Nethery’s pupils became narrower and narrower.

At this moment, many Soul Demons were already killed by the curse power. Soul’s face was ashen as blood spewed out of her mouth. The three Great Soul Overlords’ condition was no better than her. They might soon be killed by the power as well.

The faceless man did not turn back. He simply ignored the cries for help, the lives of those Soul Demons and Soul. His hand was outstretched, and he was determined to get close to the coffin. Finally, he got close to the dish. His fingers kept moving closer, inch by inch...

Suddenly, the coffin trembled, then the lid moved, revealing a small gap. At this moment, a thunderous rumble echoed out across heaven and earth, while a terrifying aura powerful enough to suppress the world exploded out of the coffin. Upon sensing it, all the nobles in Void City fell to their knees.

Meanwhile, countless Soul Demons tangled by the curse power burst into pieces, and the three Great Soul Overlords howled miserably. As for Soul, all that was left in her eyes was a look of despair, and she was staring fixedly at the faceless man’s back.

The next moment, the rift in the sky widened again. Sloth Great Soul Overlord was striking out. As someone as strong as a perfected Chaotic Saint, he could resist the mighty power emanating from the coffin. He caught the three Great Soul Overlords and scooped them into the rift. Then, he broke Soul’s fetters and brought her away as well.

Rivulets of blood trickled down the faceless man’s empty face, wriggling like tiny snakes, and his arm was melting. Then, the coffin rumbled again and the gap widened. An even stronger force burst out of it and knocked him flying away. He was now fully covered in blood!

Bu Fang felt the pressure weighing down on him extremely heavy, so much so that he could hardly breathe. Suddenly, a warm stream flowed through his head. He paused. He was very familiar with that; it was the System’s power. With that, the pressure disappeared, and he felt relieved.

Bu Fang turned to look at the faceless man, who was approaching the coffin again. An idea came to him.

Blood was dripping from the corners of Nethery’s mouth. Apparently, supporting the array with her current strength was a heavy burden on her. Her black eyes seemed to be burning as she saw the faceless man close in on the coffin once more. The curse snakes around the Netherworld Ship hissed and roared.

The faceless man moved on step by step, covered in blood that seemed to wriggle like tiny insects. Finally, he was in front of the coffin again. He reached out his hand to grab the dish, his fingers moving closer and closer. The lid did not move again as if opening to this extent was already its limit.

Everyone could feel the desire of the faceless man, which was so strong that it made them shudder. They had a feeling that they would be plunged into endless misery once he acquired the dish. That filled them with panic.

The dish was steaming and did not look amazing at all. Perhaps the most unusual thing about it was that it was placed on top of a coffin.

The faceless man’s fingers were shaking, and beads of blood were falling from his fingertips. As soon as they left his fingers, they were blown away by the mighty force. He was about to grab the dish. His fingertips were only fractions of an inch away from it!

“Excuse me... I’ll have a look at the dish first.”

Suddenly, an indifferent voice rang out. At some point, a lean and tall figure had come to the coffin’s side. Then, a fair hand fell, grabbed the dish, and took it away.

The faceless man’s fingertips were almost touching the dish, but he could only watch as it moved further and further away from him!

‘F*ck you!’ He growled silently.

At this moment, the whole world fell silent, and the atmosphere became extremely strange.
