BXBX NOVEL Chapter 361: Hunting Shadows
Seeing Zhou Tianhao who had always seemed stoic since they had traveled together, display such a serious expression, both Qin Lang and Shen Qian became instantly anxious, their previously joyful countenances disappearing completely.
“Just now, a notice from the Star Hunter arrived.”
“What?!” Qin Lang, who had previously seen the Star Hunter’s prowess, was taken aback with surprise clearly written across his face.
Shen Qian also became serious, although she hadn’t encountered the Star Hunter before, she was not unfamiliar with this worldwide notorious criminal organization, “Brother Zhou, didn’t you say the Star Hunter wasn’t in Lanqiu City before?”
Su Hernan blinked his eyes, understanding who the Star Hunter was, his expression also changed slightly.
However, this matter didn’t bear much relation to his Breeze Restaurant, so Su Henian didn’t say anything, quietly sitting by to the side.
I m also not clear.” Zhou Tianhao sat on the sofa with a solemn face, “The Star Hunter had shown up at the ‘Leaping Fish Banquet’, which I discovered.” “I later thought they were headed to Lanqiu City, but when I followed them to Lanqiu for an investigation, there wasn’t any trace.”
“Originally, I thought I had been played by the Star Hunter, but looking at the timeline, the location where the notice appeared syncs up.”
“Could it be that they really were in Lanqiu City at point?”
“About that…” Qin Lang couldn’t help but interrupt, “Brother Zhou, you still haven’t mentioned where the Star Hunter’s notice showed up.”
Zhou Tianhao glanced at Qin Lang, “Unfortunately, the recipient of the notice was the Spirit Chef Association in Xianyu City.”
“What?!”
“Slap!”
An envelope adorned with a gorgeous black mask is heavily slapped on the table by a muscular hand.
“Star Hunter, what boldness!” A muscular middle-aged man said in a deep voice, a murderous glint in his eyes.
In front of him sat thirteen spirit executors whose vital auras were not weak at all, their faces revealing rage and the desire to fight.
“President! The opponent’s target should be the cooking contest in Xianyu City one week from now.” A Spirit Executor voiced out solemnly, “We must cast a strong net in advance to ensure these despicable fellows are caught!”
“The opponent’s strength is formidable.” Zhang Tianze, the president of the Spirit Chef Association in Xianyu City, looked at his subordinates in front of him.
“The Star Hunter previously appeared in Tianhua State, and it’s rumored that he displayed the combat power of a five-star full-taste spirit. Under the empowerment of ‘Fresh Intent Fire’, he can fight against six-star spirits, and additionally possesses the star system from the Lotlan Region.”
“What?!”
The thirteen first-level spirit executors were greatly startled. They hadn’t interacted with the Star Hunter before and had limited understanding about him. They didn’t expect the Star Hunter to be so powerful.
A five-star full-taste, amplified by Fresh Intent Fire, and the worst thing was that he held the star system as well.
Such battle strength is essentially enough to crush the fighting power of any city’ s Spirit Chef Association.
“However, we do have measures to respond.” ZhangTianze didn’t seem too flustered, “I have already contacted a few Spirit Chefs in our state who own five-star food spirits. A few have agreed to come and help.”
“Besides that, I have also contacted the Association’s President, who said he would personally come at that time.”
If Zhang Tianze’s previous words have already brought peace to the minds of the thirteen first-level spirit executors, his latter words are like a shot of adrenaline.
The Association’s President!
The one who can be addressed like this by Zhang Tianze, there is only one person.
That is the only third-level spirit executor in Mingjing Province, Mr. Zuo Weiran, the President of the Spirit Chef Association of Mingjing Province!
It’s rumored that Mr. Zuo Weiran is just one step away from unlocking his sixth star vein “Kaiyang,” and he has also mastered the Origin Evolution star system unique to the Samiya Region.
Even in the entire southern part of the Samiya region, his strength is among the best.
With him present, the Star Hunter’s defeat is practically guaranteed!
“The cooking contest will proceed as planned!” Zhang Tianze spoke calmly,
“This time, we will ensure the Star Hunter finds no way back!”
Somewhere in Wuhe State, an alluring youth sat lazily cross-legged on the ground, delightfully basking a Wuhe Phoenix Tail Chicken, a local delicacy. The juicy chicken meat exuded large amounts of oil under the heat of the open flame, creating an alluring aroma.
Under the sparse forest sunlight, the shining oil on the chicken’s surface transformed into the most enticing color.
While he was grilling, the youth suddenly sneezed.
“Ah-choo!”
“Seems like someone’s thinking about me?” He stroked his chin, pondering for a moment before giving up, “At this point, let’s eat first!”
“Roar-”
‘Damn, I forgot to add the condiments!”
“So, Qin Lang, are you still going to participate in the cooking competition in Xianyu City?” Shen Qian couldn’t help looking at Qin Lang, worry filling her eyes, “If star Hunter unexpectedly shows up, you could also be in danger.”
“Why don’t you give it up, regardless, safety is paramount.” Su Henian, on the side, was also frowning as he advised, “The opponent is a world-class criminal organization, it’s too dangerous.”
Qin Lang didn’t immediately answer. He pondered for a while, then looked at Zhou Tianhao who had not spoken, “Brother Zhou, what do you think?”
“Regardless of whether you go or not, since the Star Hunter’s invitation has come, I will go to Xianyu City to help.” Zhou Tianhao answered seriously, “It’s time to settle things with those guys.”
“We are companions. If you’re going to Xianyu City, naturally, I will go, too.” Qin Lang wore a smile as he decided, “There’s an old saying ‘since I’ve come, I’ll stay’, as I have arrived at Xianyu City, I naturally have to participate in the cooking contest.”
Aren t you afraid?” Zhou Tianhao turned to look at Qin Lang.
The Star Hunter wouldn’t target a bystander like me, would he?” Qin Lang shrugged, “And I believe the protection of the Spirit Chef Association and Brother Zhou.”
“That’s a given.” The seriousness on Zhou Tianhao’s face gradually faded. Seeing Qin Lang’s confidence in him, a self-assured smile appeared on his face again.”
“Don’t forget about me, I’m a member of the team too!” Shen Qian raised her hand, snorted, “I wasn’t planning to participate before, but now fine, I will take part.”
“Qin Lang, you need to be careful, don’t accidentally hand over the title of
Cooking Champion to me!”
Looking at Shen Qian’s confident appearance, Qin Lang smiled, “Then, we need
to gear up for a good fight.”
Amidst their jokes, the worry brought about by Star Hunter’s notice seems to have disappeared completely.
‘Getting old.” Su Henian looking at the energetic trio, couldn’t help but shake his head slowly, saying with a sigh, “In any case, you all must be careful.”
“Don’t worry, Uncle Su. I’ve previously faced the Star Hunter in Tianhua State.”
Qin Lang spoke in a reassuring tone, “If they really do appear, I will certainly
run far away in the first instance.”
And then find an excellent spot to watch the battle between the Spirit Chefs.
He silently added the last bit to himself.
I’ve gotten the tickets, the bus leaves in two hours.” Shen Qian shook her phone, “We should be leaving now.”
“I’ll drop you off.” Su Henian took the initiative to speak.
