Chapter 160: Absorbing the Essence of Herbs and Trees, Becoming a Mid-Rank Battle General!
Where is the road?

Where is my way?
A road that's three meters wide and that long?
Xu Feng stared at the extra wall behind him, frozen in place, cold sweat pouring down his face.

He quickly asked Ah She in his mind.

However, Ah She's huge head was empty; there was nothing inside.

Have no idea what happened.

'Don't panic, absolutely don't panic.'

'Calm down, calm down, think carefully about what exactly happened.'

'Is there some kind of mechanism here that I haven't been able to find?'

Xu Feng used his mental energy to monitor the surroundings.

On the other hand, he carefully shone his flashlight around, observing the surrounding environment.

Since there are patterns here that can shield mental energy, the detection of mental energy becomes unreliable.

At this point, we still have to use the most primitive and simplest method—searching with our eyes.

However, there were no other forks in the road, only this one road.

Xu Feng even saw half of his own footprint at the bottom of the wall.

It was as if I had just passed through the wall.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng quickly stepped forward and touched the wall.

It turned out to be real and substantial; even after being punched hard, it didn't budge at all.

'Oh right! And the broken blade!'

He quickly flipped his hand and took out the SS-grade broken blade, then forcefully hurled it towards the wall.

But what he didn't expect was.

The wall suddenly burst out with a "bang," sending the broken blade flying.

Only a small white mark remained on the wall.

The material of this wall is harder than SS-grade alloy? How is that possible?

Xu Feng tried it several more times on the four walls: left, right, top, and bottom.

It was ultimately determined that even the broken blade could not leave any deep marks on the wall.

He had no choice but to abandon his idea of ​​digging a hole to get out and grit his teeth and continue walking forward.

He had no other choice.

"So this guy was trapped here and died?"

Xu Feng glanced at the corpse of the golden-winged alien, then could only step over it and proceed cautiously forward.

But after walking for a while...

Xu Feng went back and searched around the corpse, and actually found an alloy weapon.

It is also a foreign-style system.

Although this thing can't be sold in stores in western Beijing, it's still worth some money on the black market.

Even if sold as a souvenir, it could fetch hundreds of thousands.

Until it's confirmed that we can't leave, all these things need to be collected.

Otherwise, if a way out is found in the future, wouldn't I suffer a huge loss?
five minutes later.

The surrounding environment grew increasingly dark, as if there was some light-absorbing material on the walls that could absorb all the beams of light from the flashlight.

A repressive environment makes people more repressed and sensitive.

Even the heartbeat and breathing sounds became more pronounced, as if they were magnified several times over.

Xu Feng's knuckles cracked as he clenched his fists, the beam of his tactical flashlight sweeping rapidly across the stone wall.

The snake followed behind him, its tail tip thrashing restlessly on the ground, occasionally even sparking.

along the way.

Xu Feng would occasionally see a mummified corpse leaning against the wall.

It seems they were trapped here and died because they had nowhere else to go.

Xu Feng's mood grew increasingly heavy.

The man and the tiger continued their journey along the winding path.

The passageway is getting wider and wider.

More and more strange patterns began to appear on the walls on both sides. They looked like some kind of ancient runes, or like the blood vessels of some kind of creature.

When the flashlight beam swept across, these patterns seemed to twist slightly.

Xu Feng looked closely and realized that it was just his imagination.

"call--"

He closed his eyes slightly and rested for a moment.

He was too nervous.

This is not the way to go.

Prolonged periods of intense concentration can rapidly deplete a person's mental energy.

He needs to relax and conserve his energy to prepare for greater dangers.

ten minutes later.

Xu Feng patted Ah She on the back and continued forward.

The further he went in, the more his mental strength was suppressed.

I glanced at my watch; it was already noon.

Four hours had passed since he entered the cave.

At this point, his mental energy could only barely cover a ten-meter radius around him, and beyond that ten meters was a terrifying darkness.

"Something's not right here," Xu Feng muttered to himself, but he didn't dare to stop for a moment.

Just as Xu Feng was thinking this...

Suddenly, the mountain wall in front of us vanished, and the space opened up dramatically!
Xu Feng's flashlight beam finally returned to normal and was no longer affected by the surrounding stone walls.

Then, a huge mountain belly appeared before his eyes.

The mountain's summit was extremely high, and Xu Feng could only barely see some stalactites hanging down.

At the bottom of the mountain's belly stands a small hill, and a breeze flows in from the crevices of the rocks, carrying a slightly strange, fishy smell.

'What a huge space! I wonder where I am in these ruins.'

Xu Feng looked at the stone steps winding down the mountainside and pondered curiously.

But when he glanced down into the mountainside, he suddenly sensed something was amiss.

at this time.

Ah She's mane stood on end, and he suddenly lay down facing the hollow mountain belly, his legs trembling.

Xu Feng then noticed.

The mountain, nestled at the bottom of the mountain's belly, appears to be a natural peak, but its surface is actually covered with fine scales.

The crack in the center of the mountain opened and closed slightly, and the airflow that spewed out condensed into ice crystals in mid-air.

Like
It resembles a nostril.

This isn't a mountain peak.
Xu Feng's Adam's apple bobbed, and he suddenly froze on the spot.

This isn't a stone at all.

This is clearly the head of a terrifying creature!!
The creature's head was as tall as a small mountain.

Its surface is covered with thick scales, each one looking as if it were cast from black iron.

It gleamed with a metallic sheen in the dim light.

Its eyes were closed, and its long eyelashes, like stalactites, trembled slightly with its breath.

Only by listening carefully could one notice a faint breathing sound, like the sound of wind, coming from inside the mountain.

What...what is this?!

Xu Feng's heart nearly leaped out of his chest, and his whole body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

'You're really going to kill me!'

Xu Feng couldn't help but want to kick Ah She hard.

But at that moment, he couldn't lift his leg at all.

He had never seen such a terrifying creature.

With that size, he should at least have the strength of a lord, right?

Unaware of these things, Xu Feng only felt that the space here was somewhat oppressive.

But when they discovered that it was actually a terrifying mutated creature.

He immediately sensed that the creature's aura was terrifying.

It felt as if mountains were pressing down on you, making it hard to breathe.

Xu Feng felt that his spiritual power was like a small boat tossed about in a storm in the face of this aura.

It could be torn to shreds at any moment.

Don't disturb it!
We must leave quietly!

Xu Feng suppressed his fear, held his breath, and gestured for Ah She to carefully retreat with him.

But right now!
The creature's breathing suddenly stopped!

The entire mountainside fell into a deathly silence, with only Xu Feng's rapid heartbeat echoing through the air.

not good!

Xu Feng's heart pounded, and he cursed himself for being so curious.

He immediately transformed into a blur and fled back the way he came!
As for Ah She, he couldn't care less at the moment!
A few minutes later.

When they returned to the place where their path had been blocked by the wall.

Xu Feng was pleasantly surprised to find that the wall that had blocked his way had disappeared!
Without looking back, he flew away and disappeared into the passage in the blink of an eye.

About half an hour later.

When Xu Feng felt slightly tired, he stopped to rest.

Suddenly, they saw a huge shadowy creature in the passage ahead.

However, compared to that terrifying creature as large as a mountain, this shadow was much smaller.

He immediately grabbed his sword and strode forward, intending to finish him off beforehand.

But he only realized it when he got closer.

That wasn't a dangerous shadow at all.

Instead, it was Ah She lying on the ground.

"Ah Snake, what are you doing here—"

At this point, Xu Feng suddenly froze.

Ah She's posture was exactly the same as when he left, without the slightest change.

There was a puddle of water behind Ah She's butt.

A strong smell of urine kept entering his nostrils, telling Xu Feng that Ah She had wet himself in fear.

I actually went in circles and came right back!
Xu Feng stiffly turned his head to look towards the mountainside.

Then, to their horror, they met a huge, dark brown eye that was as tall as a person.

Those eyes were now silently watching him, as if mocking his ignorance and foolishness.

Hsu Feng's legs went weak.

He was clearly going straight, how could he have gone around back?
unless……

Unless the entire mountainside is a giant maze!

A maze that defies common sense!

Oh no!!

Xu Feng cursed inwardly and gripped the alloy battle knife tightly.

at this time!

A strange humming sound suddenly echoed in Xu Feng's mind: "Hmm?"

Xu Feng was still in a daze.

Suddenly, I felt something pop out of my arms.

He looked down.

They then discovered that it was a stone beast statue about the size of a thumb.

这 是
Xu Feng's pupils contracted.

This is a souvenir that Wang Xuerou gave herself!

Until then.

Xu Feng then suddenly realized.

The head of this sculpture bears a striking resemblance to the enormous head inside the mountain before us!
"Human, where did you obtain this?"

Just as Xu Feng was in a daze, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind again.

The sound was exactly the same as the questioning "hmm" sound he made earlier.

It's not an illusion!

Someone is really talking to me!
No, it's this giant beast talking to me!
Xu Feng swallowed hard, thinking to himself that it must be because of his Beast Taming Technique.

But why does this giant beast sound so...ancient?

He quickly moved his stiff body and bowed to the giant beast, saying, "This junior inadvertently entered this place and had no intention of offending you. I hope you will forgive me, senior!"

Bending over, Xu Feng waited nervously for the other party's reply.

They were afraid that the giant beast would not understand human etiquette.

But soon, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Senior, it's been a long time since anyone has addressed me like that."

The beast's voice was deep and booming, sending chills down one's spine.

The behemoth asked again, its enormous eyes blinking, "You can hear me?"

In the blink of an eye, a strong gust of wind blew towards Xu Feng.

Xu Feng swayed slightly and quickly responded with his mental power: "Reporting to senior, this junior has cultivated a secret technique that allows me to communicate with non-human beings."

“I see,” the giant beast’s voice said with a sudden realization, then asked, “I’d like to ask you, where did you get this thing from?”

After going in circles, the behemoth has somehow brought the problem back to square one.

Xu Feng quickly replied, "Senior, this item was given to me by a young girl to thank me for saving my life. She said it would protect me and keep me safe."

After saying that, Xu Feng scratched his head.

Why should I speak like that?
so weird.

However, after Xu Feng finished speaking, the giant beast remained silent for a long time.

Just as Xu Feng began to feel uneasy, the small statue flew back into his hand.

"I never expected that it was you who saved Xiao Xue Rou. It seems we really do have some kind of fate."

Upon hearing the giant beast's words, Xu Feng was completely stunned.

what's the situation?
This giant beast senior actually knows about Xue Rou's affairs?

Xu Feng suddenly remembered that Wang Xuerou had mentioned this when she gave it to him.

This thing often kept her company and talked to her during her lonely and helpless nights.

At the time, Hsu Feng only thought it was a source of emotional support for the child.

But I never expected it to be exactly what it said!

Xu Feng quickly smiled and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "I see. It seems that we have quite a connection."

"I still don't know your esteemed name, senior? My name is Xu Feng. I thank you for sparing my life."

My name is Yin.

Howling and barking?

Xu Feng chuckled inwardly, but said seriously, "Senior Yang, may I ask a question?"

May I ask where this place is? Could it be the legendary ancient ruins?

After realizing he had established a connection, Xu Feng immediately relaxed.

I'm not so nervous anymore.

Since the giant beast showed no intention of killing him, it meant there was still room for maneuver.

Then he can chat more and build a relationship.

Perhaps we can even get some benefits from this giant beast senior.

"Ancient ruins?"

However, the beast's next words startled Xu Feng, almost making him cry out.

"So much time has passed? This place is not a ruin, but one of my nests."

The beast's voice sounded somewhat desolate.

Xu Feng was stunned by this humane response.

nest?

But all the signs here indicate that this is clearly an ancient ruin.

Could it be that this senior is a terrifying being who has lived from ancient times to the present?
How strong must it be?

High-ranking lord?

Or has it surpassed the Lord level and become the legendary Beast King level?!

A super being comparable to a human who surpasses even the God of War?
Xu Feng felt a chill run down his spine; he couldn't bear to imagine it.

Just as Xu Feng was in a daze.

The ancient being spoke again: "I understand. It seems you were lured here by this little guy, right?"
It seems the broken blade I threw out back then really had an effect.

You're just too timid.

I spotted you the moment I entered the cave, and I've been guiding you deeper into this place in various ways along the way.

I never expected that you had been trying to escape all along. It wasn't until I had no other choice that I blocked your way and forced you to come in.

Are humans all so timid now?

Xu Feng was speechless upon hearing this.

No wonder I had all sorts of inner turmoil along the way, wanting to delve deeper into it.

Unexpectedly, this ancient behemoth was influencing things from the shadows.

Thinking of this, Xu Feng also felt a sense of horror.

This ancient behemoth was so powerful that it could even influence people's thoughts from a distance.

This is too scary.

"Replying to senior, I am merely being cautious, not cowardly."

After all, the environment here is unknown, and we don't know what kind of dangers there may be.

As a junior warrior at the initial stage, I must be extremely cautious.

The behemoth seemed uninterested in Xu Feng's thoughts, and simply said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."

I brought you in so we could talk and exchange ideas, and I could ask about the situation outside. Since you and Xiao Xue Rou are destined to meet, I won't make things difficult for you.

Tell me everything that has happened in this world over the years, and then you may leave.

Xu Feng was taken aback.

So this giant beast just wanted to hear the news?

Xu Feng immediately agreed obediently: "Alright, then I'll start from when I entered the dimensional world."

Two full hours later.

Xu Feng took a sip of water because his mouth was dry.

He told this senior, Yin, everything that had happened in the dimensional world he had experienced.

Upon hearing this, the giant beast sighed, "Truly, the world changes, and time is merciless."

Indeed, although you are somewhat timid, you seem to be more composed than the average human.

In gratitude for the information you provided, I'm giving this to you as a gift.

Xu Feng was wondering what the gift was when he saw a fist-sized rock suddenly fly up and hurtle towards him.

He immediately raised his hand to catch it, and with two or three light twists, he neutralized the force of the stone, holding it steadily in his palm.

Upon closer inspection, the stone appears translucent.

It resembles amber, or perhaps some kind of crystal.

Inside the stone was a crystalline object radiating a pure pale green light.

It's only the size of a thumb, and looks crystal clear and adorably emerald green.

Xu Feng was stunned for a long time before he recognized the origin of the item.

This is actually a "plant essence"!
He was immediately overjoyed and said, "Thank you very much, senior! I will take my leave now."

Without hesitation, he stood up and clasped his hands in a salute.

He couldn't wait to kick Ah She and try to take it back the way it came and head outside.

As soon as he took two steps, Xu Feng suddenly heard the giant beast senior speaking in his mind again.

"By the way, if you could occasionally send me some of the latest news from this world, as well as some human delicacies, that would be great."

I can make an exchange with something that you humans care about.

Take, for example, that essence of herbs and plants; in short, I won't let you deliver the message for nothing.

Upon hearing this, Xu Feng realized what was happening and was overjoyed: "Senior, you are too kind. It is my duty to pass on the message to you."

However, if I could receive some reward from my seniors as a result, I would be extremely honored.

The behemoth said with satisfaction, "Good, but you must not spread the word about my existence to anyone else."

If someone finds their way here because of you, you know what I'll do, right?

Xu Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly replied, "This junior understands!"

The behemoth slowly said, "Go."

Xu Feng bowed respectfully, turned and left without hesitation.

This time.

He walked out of the cave tunnel and only relaxed completely when he saw the light of day again.

then.

Without hesitation, Xu Feng leaped into the air and shot off into the distance.

After flying for more than ten kilometers, he finally landed on the ground and rode on Ah She's back.

After calming down for a while, Xu Feng found a mountain stream.

After washing themselves and Ah She, they headed back.

As he approached the base, Xu Feng felt as if he had just woken from a dream, remembering what had happened in the mountain cave.

This is truly surreal.

but.

He seemed to have met an extraordinary person because of this.

So, the gold-marked land on this alien map is actually such a place!
So, is this the case for all the gold-marked areas on the map? Do other gold-marked areas also each have a giant beast?

Or perhaps it simply means that the alien races were completely unaware of the existence of these giant beasts.

All I know is that this is an ancient ruin?

Thinking about this, Xu Feng suddenly had the idea that he must ask that giant beast senior this question next time.

He then quickly shook his head, realizing he had really brought this upon himself.

Having finally escaped, how can I go back?
Is the giant beast's word reliable?

What if it's a scam?
But upon closer reflection, it seems I don't have anything that would make the other party want to take advantage of me.

Given the size of that behemoth, eating him would be as easy as cracking open a sunflower seed, offering no taste whatsoever.

After calming down, Xu Feng felt more excited and thrilled than fearful.

However, the existence that surpasses the Lord level is still too exciting.

Even a war god wouldn't be able to remain calm in the face of this senior, right?

"It's not that I'm too bad, it's that the senior is too strong."

But thinking about it carefully, this might not be such a strange encounter after all.

Xu Feng raised his hand and looked at the slightly soft, crystal-like object that had appeared in his palm, feeling very pleased.

Two days later.

Villa basement.

Xu Feng flipped through the information on his tablet, browsing information about herbal essences.

This was found for him by Lu Fei at Wuhan University, which details how to find, distinguish, and consume the essence of herbs and plants.

"The essence of plants is a kind of core essence that is nurtured by plants that have grown for many years and absorbed the essence of heaven and earth."

It contains a large amount of rich life essence.

It can be taken directly and absorbed.

After consumption, the essence contained within can stimulate the body's Qi and blood, greatly enhancing the martial artist's strength.

It can even enable warriors at the general level to achieve a leap in their blood and qi, making it an extremely rare treasure.

It is a specialty product that can only be found in the Tiankeng Dimensional Realm.

Wherever it exists, danger lurks everywhere, and it is even guarded by powerful beings from other races.

"Orally?"

Xu Feng picked up a fist-sized "crystal" that looked like a rock or some kind of hard rubber.

"According to the information, this kind of fruit-kernel-shaped herbal essence is only the lowest quality among herbal essences."

After a moment's thought, he smiled slightly: "But even the worst ones are extremely precious."

And that means Senior Yin must have something even better.”

Xu Feng was even looking forward to what he could get in return when he met this senior again.

"I need to find someone to ask about the major events that have recently happened in the dimensional world tomorrow."

Not just recently, but the last ten years as well. After all, given Senior Yin's lifespan, things from the last few hundred years would probably be considered news.

As for finding human delicacies, that's too easy.

Bactria is the country with the most diverse cuisine in the world, bar none.

The cuisines from different regions are incredibly diverse and all-encompassing.

"Just taking all these delicacies to our elders to enjoy would probably take decades."

Having determined his approach, Xu Feng stopped thinking about it and focused his attention back on the herbal essences at hand.

"Absorb the essence of plants first!"

Xu Feng manipulated the broken blade and easily cut through the outer layer of crystal.

In an instant.

A fresh scent of grass and trees instantly filled the entire martial arts room.

It is refreshing and soothing, making one feel relaxed and comfortable.

Without hesitation, Xu Feng used two fingers to lift out the thumb-sized gelatinous essence, then tilted his head back and threw it into his mouth.

Chew—chew—

next moment.

A refreshing liquid oozed from the gelatinous substance, like chewing a piece of sugarcane.

However, the remaining essence of these plants is not as difficult to swallow as sugarcane residue.

Xu Feng chewed it carefully before swallowing it.

soon.

A cool sensation rose from his abdomen and then spread throughout his body.

In an instant.

Xu Feng felt as if he had suddenly jumped from a sweltering summer steamer into a cool spring.

The spring water was cool but not irritating, without any chill, but it made him feel extremely comfortable.

Even my scalp feels so refreshed.

Xu Feng was so overwhelmed with pleasure that he couldn't help but groan.

It felt like all my muscles and bones were being gently massaged by some subtle force.

It was absolutely exhilarating!

And at the same time.

The power of his blood and qi began to gradually boil.

Xu Feng could sense it.

Every cell in his body was frantically absorbing the life essence contained in the plant essence.

His body is undergoing a transformation!
Without wasting any time, Xu Feng got up and began to perform the Three Pure Ones' Boundless Method.

Gradually.

Wisps of steam rose slowly from the top of his head.

Countless beads of sweat gathered into large drops, sliding down Xu Feng's skin.

As sweat poured down his body, Xu Feng's muscles and bones underwent subtle transformations that were difficult to see with the naked eye.

Even his skin seemed to be faintly covered with a layer of crystalline color.

It wasn't until more than two hours later, when Xu Feng suddenly came to his senses, that he realized...

My whole body is filled with energy and boundless vitality.

"call!"

Xu Feng threw a punch, and a loud whooshing sound erupted in the martial arts room.

The surrounding air seemed to be shattered by the fist, suddenly creating a violent gust of wind.

Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction, thinking to himself, "Little bastard."

[Qi and Blood Value: 5535c]

Xu Feng's eyes seemed to gleam with a sharp light, and he felt a surge of heroic spirit.

Mid-level warrior, I didn't expect to reach that level so quickly.

He felt as if he were invincible at that moment, with the strength to split mountains.

"Wife! Let's fight!!"

Xu Feng pushed open the door to the martial arts room and shouted upstairs.

Lu Fei quickly and lightly walked into the martial arts room, smiling as she said, "Congratulations."

She then gently closed the door.

"However, don't think that just because you've broken through to the intermediate-level warrior stage, you're my opponent."

Xu Feng smiled provocatively and beckoned with his finger: "I want to see just how good this genius from Tianyue Martial Arts University really is."

Lu Fei smiled gently, and then a great commotion erupted.

Bang bang bang!

In an instant.

Fists rained down on Xu Feng relentlessly.

Xu Feng dodged awkwardly, barely managing to remain undefeated.

Without using mental power.

Whether it's strength, combat techniques, or movement skills, Lu Fei completely overwhelms Xu Feng.

Just five minutes later, Xu Feng shouted in a disheveled manner, "Wife, I was wrong."

Lu Fei stopped abruptly and lightly flicked Xu Feng's forehead: "Hmph, give up now?"

Xu Feng thought to himself, 'I won't accept this! Just you wait, once my movement techniques and swordsmanship improve, I'll crush you!'

But he honestly replied, "I'm convinced, my wife is always the best!"

Lu Fei turned and walked outside: "Hmph, the loser has to wash the dishes."

However, her graceful figure captivated Xu Feng.

We have now reached the level of a mid-tier warrior.

Humph.

I'm sure I won't lose the next battle!

night.

afterwards.

Lu Fei blushed and whispered, "You're so mean!"

Xu Feng chuckled: "Is it fierce or not?"

Lu Fei shyly buried her head in his chest: "So boring."

Xu Feng laughed and slapped her on the wheat-colored skin, sending a ripple through her flesh.

"Shh! Keep your voice down!" Lu Fei couldn't help but hum softly, looking at Xu Feng with blurry, drunken eyes.

"I've already bought everything I need to go back to Earth next month."

Aside from things like ginseng, deer antler, and cordyceps.

"Do you think we should bring your parents some higher-quality beast-general level meat?"

Xu Feng asked softly, then suddenly smiled and said, "What if I go back and see your relatives? What if someone mocks me and looks down on me?"

When the time comes, I'll just take out this high-level beast general-grade meat and show it off on the table.

"I guarantee your relatives will all be impressed, and then they'll start praising me as a really great son-in-law."

Lu Fei burst out laughing upon hearing this: "Hahaha, have you been watching too many online novels and short dramas? Who is so bored and childish all day long, constantly expressing admiration, shock, disdain, and comparison?"

People these days are as cunning as ghosts. Even if they really have a bad opinion of you, they would never say it to your face.

Besides, I don't care what my parents say, so why should I care what they put down?

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say."

The next day.

Qingfeng Martial Arts Hall.

"boom!!"

A violent tremor followed.

The punching bag in front of Xu Feng suddenly crashed to the ground.

"drop!"

"The overall assessment result is: mid-level warrior."

"Your strength data is: 16553kg (16.5 tons)."

"Your speed data is: 101.2 m/s."

Xu Feng nodded in satisfaction.

This strength data is basic data without using combat techniques.

If we multiply that by 3.6, it would be a terrifying explosion of nearly 60 tons!
The basic strength standard for a beginner-level War God is only 64 tons!
This breakthrough is nothing short of a qualitative change.

Xu Feng, a mid-level warrior?

"Hahahaha!" Xu Feng couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter.

Nothing is more exhilarating than breaking through to a higher level of strength!
"Om - hum -"

Xu Feng was laughing heartily when his tactical watch started vibrating.

As soon as the call connected, he heard Huang Sen excitedly shout, "Old Xu! Hahaha, I've broken through!"
High-ranking warrior! Pretty cool, huh? I'm just one step away from catching up with you!

Xu Feng smiled faintly: "Sorry, I'm just a lowly old man who has just broken through to the intermediate-level warrior."

The laughter on the other end of the phone stopped abruptly.

"Damn it, first open the hook, then pull up the pants, and you're on your way into the world of gangsters."

There's no one who can control everything in society, only one thing that can subdue another. I give up! Let's talk in person! It's your treat!

After hanging up the phone, Xu Feng laughed.

"This is double happiness! We should celebrate!"

That evening, Xu Feng invited Huang Sen's family and took Lu Fei and Xiao Dan to the base's most luxurious French restaurant.

The four of them enjoyed a good meal and drinks.

Even at the end, Xiao Dan was still complaining that she "wasn't full".

Huang Sen also shouted, "I'm not full."

"You're really like a dog looking at the stars, only knowing the difference between thick and thin. You think you can eat your fill at a meal that costs two thousand yuan per person?"

Huang Sen's wife rolled her eyes at him and laughed.

"Hahaha, actually I'm not full either," Xu Feng said with a laugh.

Chen Ning blushed and apologized, "I was just joking with Lao Huang, that's not what I meant, I wasn't talking about you guys."

Upon hearing this, Lu Fei waved her hand and laughed, "Haha, it's okay, it's okay. Actually, I'm not full either. Shall we go eat another meal?"

Xiao Dan immediately jumped up excitedly: "Yay!"

Huang Sen then waved his hand generously and said, "Let's go! This meal is on me!"

"go!"

The four of them rushed into another Chinese restaurant.

I ate my fill this time.

The total cost was less than the individual expenses Xu Feng had just treated to.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the group strolled leisurely toward Xu Feng's house.

She watched as two women behind her skipped and hopped along, holding Xiao Dan's hands.

Xu Feng glanced at Huang Sen: "No need to see us off, you two can just go back. We're adults, do we need you to see us off?"

However, Huang Sen cautiously glanced around before saying, "The opportunity wasn't good before. There's something I need to tell you. Someone might be watching you."
