Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 187 What's the Use of Becoming a Grandmaster?
"what happened?"

Leng Feibai looked at the dazed Haitang Duoduo, poured her a cup of tea, and pushed it towards her.

Haitang Duoduo came to her senses and looked at Leng Feibai in silence.

Haitang Duoduo heard everything Leng Feibai said clearly.

Looking at Leng Feibai's calm expression, Haitang Duoduo couldn't help but ask, "Were you speaking from the heart just now?"

Leng Feibai was taken aback upon hearing this, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Of course it's from the bottom of my heart!"

Seeing Leng Feibai's downcast and silent appearance, Haitang Duoduo sensed something was wrong and couldn't help but ask, "Then, besides Fan Xian and the Fan family, have you ever trusted anyone else?"

“You, Sang Wen…”

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, he sighed and said, "The others are just nodding acquaintances; we haven't reached the point where we can completely confide in each other."

Seeing this, Haitang Duoduo tentatively asked, "What would you do if Sang Wen and I betrayed you one day?"

Leng Feibai's lips twitched upon hearing this, and he covered his head, saying, "Duoduo, please don't ask such questions, okay?"

Seeing this, Haitang Duoduo got up and sat down next to Leng Feibai. "Hey, what have you been through these past few days? I feel like you've changed a lot since we broke up!"

"is it?"

After hearing this, Leng Feibai sighed and said, "I don't think I've changed much. Duoduo, do you think I'm any different from before?"

"I sense that you've become more thoughtful, and your temperament is more restless than before!"

Haitang Duoduo couldn't help but ask, "What exactly happened to you after you returned from Northern Qi?"

"That old mudfish tried to poison my grandma but failed!"

Seeing that no one was around, Leng Feibai gritted his teeth and said, "Then Fan Xian was almost beaten to death by that old mudfish. Damn it, that's my younger brother whom I raised. I felt like killing him."

Seeing Leng Feibai's increasingly agitated emotions, Haitang Duoduo quickly handed him a teacup, signaling him to calm down.

Leng Feibai took a sip of tea, and some of the annoyance on his face faded. "Now you understand why I want to go back to Danzhou, right? Even a Grandmaster in the capital, especially one bound by their family, can't find peace and freedom. Look at Ye Liuyun. To protect the Ye family, he wandered the world like a stray dog, homeless and adrift. Who knows if he'd fall seriously ill one day, die on the road, and his body would rot to the bone without anyone even knowing. And what happened? The Ye family was easily driven out of the capital."

Seeing Leng Feibai's excited ramblings, Haitang Duoduo stepped forward and kissed him on the lips.

In an instant, Leng Feibai's manic emotions vanished like a bowl of chilled plum juice on a sweltering summer day.

"How's it going? Are you satisfied?"

Haitang Duoduo took a few steps back and tilted her head to look at Leng Feibai.

Leng Feibai bit his lip, grabbed Haitang Duoduo, and used his lightness skill to fly towards his room on the third floor.

Inside the room, Leng Feibai carried Haitang Duoduo to the bedside.

Seeing Leng Feibai's actions, Haitang Duoduo said irritably, "Are you trying to do something bad in broad daylight?"

"Does this kind of thing need to be divided into day and night?"

Leng Feibai said confidently, "You think you can just run away after lighting a fire? Duoduo, I'm not that weak and easily bullied."

After saying that, Leng Feibai kissed Haitang Duoduo's lips again.

Just then, Sang Wen pushed open the door and walked in, saying into the room, "Husband, you saw my..."

As soon as Sang Wen entered, he saw Leng Feibai holding Haitang Duoduo in one arm and stroking her body with the other.

"Did I come at the wrong time?!"

Watching the two men's actions, Sang Wen was momentarily unsure whether to retreat or...

Seeing Sang Wen's hesitant expression, Leng Feibai calmly asked, "Is there something you need?"

"I've come to look for my pipa, to see if you took it with you, my husband. But it doesn't seem to be here, so I'll be going now." After saying this, Sang Wen blushed and ran out as fast as the wind.

Seeing Sang Wen's actions, Leng Feibai and Haitang Duoduo both blushed.

"How about it, do you want to continue?"

Hearing Haitang Duoduo's words, Leng Feibai hugged the person in his arms tightly, his whole body trembling slightly, as if he were being burned by a raging fire. Even though his body had been tempered by the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, he was still feeling a little overwhelmed.

It was as if they had encountered the Scorpion Demon whose real name was "Se Xie" from "Journey to the West". With a flick of her scorpion tail, Sun Wukong's indestructible Vajra body was damaged on the spot. Even the Buddha's sixteen-foot golden body would be in pain for a while.

"Of course we'll continue! We're in complete agreement, let's applaud and cheer!"

Leng Feibai blushed and said, "Then you and I will be one... Ah!"

A low growl sounded, and Haitang Duoduo released her grip on his shoulder, looking at Leng Feibai defiantly.

Seeing this, Leng Feibai embraced her and walked to the bedside, raising his hand to untie the curtain that was covering the bed.

Looking at his beautiful wife, Leng Feibai swallowed hard, and a surge of powerful true energy erupted from his body, causing pieces of cloth to fly everywhere in the room.

For a moment, the room was filled with a scene of passionate lovemaking, where people seemed oblivious to the world around them.

As the sun set and darkness fell, Fan Xian and his companions, who had been out for a stroll, gradually returned to the inn.

As soon as I got back, I saw Leng Feibai sitting in the lobby of the inn, rubbing his waist and with dark circles under his eyes, looking lost in thought.

Seeing this, Fan Xian couldn't help but ask, "Brother, are you all alone? Where are your wife and the others?"

"They're resting upstairs!"

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, he stretched and said calmly, "Fan Xian, I understand!"

Seeing Leng Feibai's otherworldly expression, Fan Xian swallowed hard, suppressing a laugh, and asked, "Brother, what have you realized?"

"Form is emptiness!"

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, he slowly recited Lü Dongbin's poem: "A beautiful woman of sixteen, her body as soft as butter, a sword at her waist to slay mortals. Though no heads fall, she secretly drains your marrow."

After speaking, Leng Feibai walked upstairs, lost in thought and dejected.
Seeing Leng Feibai's appearance, the people behind Fan Xian all looked puzzled.

Lin Wan'er asked curiously, "Anzhi, what's wrong with Brother Feibai?"

"Do not ask!"

Fan Xian looked at Shi Chanli and Li Chengping behind him and said, "There are still children here, don't lead them astray!"

That evening, in Fan Xian's room, Leng Feibai and Fan Xian sat quietly, waiting for the person to arrive.

Not long after, Wang Qinian arrived with a masked man in black wearing a bamboo hat.

"Sir, they've arrived!"

As soon as Wang Qinian finished speaking, the man in black behind him immediately removed his disguise. "Deng Ziyue greets the two lords!"

"Old Deng, we're already so familiar with each other. Why are you doing this again!"

Looking at Deng Ziyue's expression, Fan Xian was both amused and exasperated, and quickly asked, "How is it?"

Deng Ziyue took a sip of the water Wang Qinian poured for him and quickly told him what he knew, "Ever since I brought my brothers from the same group to Jiangnan, I've had them hide in the shadows, while I used a false identity to infiltrate the Ming family as a refugee. Later, I successfully joined the three major brothels!"

As Deng Ziyue spoke, he took out a note from his pocket and said, "Lord Fan, the Ming family moved the three workshops half a month ago. The managers, craftsmen, and all the equipment are all in this place."

Fan Xian looked at the address Deng Ziyue had given him, a flash of anger in his eyes. "They killed so many people just to pull a fast one. Once we take back the three major workshops, it will be time for a final reckoning with them!"
