Conquer the game world

Chapter 38 Escape
"Wow, really? Little Ye, is this really for me?" Li Cheng exclaimed in surprise first, clearly not expecting Ye Feng to bring back such a valuable item for them.

In fact, the other two, including Li Cheng, had not expected this either. At this moment, they were just as surprised as Li Cheng. Although they had a good relationship with each other recently, they asked themselves if they would still think of leaving the power fruit for their friends if it were right in front of them. They might not be able to do it.

Ye Feng observed the three men's behavior. Upon seeing the power fruit, anyone would be greedy and determined to obtain it. The three men's initial reaction upon seeing it was no different from Ye Feng's reaction when he first saw Shi Lei.

"Ye Feng, this is too valuable. You risked your life to get it. You should keep it for yourself." After a moment of surprise and greed, Li Cheng said calmly.

This surprised Ye Feng. He wouldn't have thought it strange if the three of them were vying for it, but he didn't expect them to be so indifferent. After Li Cheng took the lead, all three of them seemed to want to politely decline Ye Feng's offer.

"Damn, I've eaten so many already, these few are useless. Take them, or I might get beaten up while I'm gone." Ye Feng had originally intended to give them to the three of them, so how could he let them refuse? He quickly stuffed the power fruits into their hands.

"However, let me make this clear first, this matter cannot be spread around carelessly, or someone might try to steal it," Ye Feng reminded everyone.

"Don't worry, Little Yezi, I understand how valuable this is. I'll eat it as soon as I get back. But thank you anyway. If you need any help in the future, just let me know." At Ye Feng's insistence, the three of them accepted the power-enhancing fruit. However, they were all embarrassed and said that they would definitely help if needed.

"Alright, then help me with the chores in my sect, and you guys can take turns playing with Shuiying." Ye Feng said jokingly. Actually, Ye Feng used his power mainly because he considered the three of them friends. If you really wanted anything from them, Ye Feng really didn't have anything to ask of them.

"Dream on, I wouldn't dare mess with that girl. I'd stay far away from her if I saw her." Upon hearing this request, all three of them immediately put on a miserable expression and said, "These past few days while you were gone, she hasn't been eating well, and we've suffered a lot."

All three knew that Ye Feng was joking, and none of them took it seriously. As for chores, with Ye Feng's current strength, it was unlikely that anyone would assign him any nonsense daily chores.

However, the three of them still expressed their gratitude at length, until Ye Feng became impatient and had no choice but to quickly send them away, finally bringing some peace and quiet.

That evening, Ye Feng resumed his old profession at the Star Dust Sect: a professional chef. However, this time, he secretly added a Power Fruit to the dishes he prepared.

Wan Hai returned that night, bringing Wan Chaowu with him. Although Wan Chaowu's injuries had healed considerably, he was still unable to use his spiritual power for the time being.

Wan Chaowu realized he had inadvertently taken Qi Lun, a traitor, as his apprentice, and felt utterly humiliated. Upon returning, he didn't make a big fuss but quietly went back to his residence to recuperate.

"Brother Cao Mao, are you still waiting here? I wonder how things are going?" Mu Jianchao and Lu Qiao did not return to Xingchen Sect with Wan Chaowu. After learning from Wan Chaowu that Cao Mao had defected to the Xiongshi Sect, they decided to clean up their own sect first.

"Oh, what brings you two here? How is the Stardust Sect doing these days?" At this time, less than seven days had passed since the barrier was opened, and Cao Mao was still waiting at the barrier entrance to open it and welcome the Lion Sect disciples out.

Upon seeing Mu Jianchao and Lu Qiao's sudden appearance, Cao Mao felt a sense of unease. The Lion Sect should be attacking the Star Dust Sect at this moment. The appearance of these two made Cao Mao very wary, and he unconsciously asked about the situation of the Star Dust Sect.

"Hmph, those guys from the Lion Clan dared to launch a sneak attack. They've all been wiped out by the sect leader and us." Mu Jianchao cupped his hands to Cao Mao and said, "The sect leader sent the two of us to pick you up and take you back. He has important matters to discuss." "What? The Lion Clan dared to do such a thing?" Upon hearing that the Lion Clan had been wiped out, Cao Mao immediately refused to admit that he was also a member of the Lion Clan and said angrily.

“However, my Stardust Sect disciples are still inside. The day to open the barrier is approaching. I think it would be more appropriate to send the disciples out first before returning to the Stardust Sect.” Cao Mao further delayed returning to the Stardust Sect. At this moment, Cao Mao of the Stardust Sect dared not go back. He only wanted to get rid of the two people and make a quick escape.

"Hmph!" After hearing Cao Mao's words, Mu Jianchao became even more certain that Cao Mao was a spy. He immediately stopped talking and suddenly attacked Cao Mao, wanting to catch him off guard.

"Clang!" To everyone's surprise, Cao Mao was prepared and easily blocked Mu Jianchao's attack.

"Brother Mu, you dare to call yourself a gentleman, yet you dare to launch a sneak attack." Cao Mao had been keeping a close eye on the two men's movements ever since he learned that the Lion Sect had been destroyed, and he reacted quickly to block the attack.

"Hmph, it seems it really was you. Do you think I'd talk about morality with a villain like you? Brother Lu, let's attack together." Mu Jianchao sneered and continued his attack.

Lu Qiao joined the fight, and Cao Mao, surrounded by the two, quickly began to be injured.

At Stardust Sect, Ye Feng prepared the meal and personally delivered it to Shui Ying. After seeing Wan Hai bring Wan Chaowu back, Ye Feng actually came to find Shui Ying again.

Without saying much, Ye Feng put down the food and left quickly, ignoring their pleas to stay and eat together.

Back at his residence, Ye Feng confirmed that no one would disturb him and instantly entered the game instance.

"Brother Mu, we never expected Cao Mao's escape techniques to be so amazing. We miscalculated," Lu Qiao said regretfully.

This time, the two joined forces, and although Cao Mao was no match for them, Cao Mao later used some secret technique that suddenly increased his strength. However, this method obviously had endless consequences. Cao Mao did not continue to fight with the two, but escaped their pursuit. The two were unable to keep up with his speed and could only watch Cao Mao escape with regret.

"Even if he's lucky this time, I'll kill him next time I see him," Mu Jianchao said hatefully. Cao Mao's escape was also unexpected by Mu Jianchao. He originally thought that he could capture Cao Mao with ease, so neither of them used their full strength. Unexpectedly, Cao Mao took advantage of the situation and escaped.

Since Cao Mao had already run away, there was no point in staying here any longer, so the two of them took off and left the place.

Just as the two took to the air, Mu Jianchao glanced back at the barrier and sighed. Many disciples of the Star Dust Sect had perished here, and Mu Jianchao still felt some regret. Among them were some of Mu Jianchao's prized disciples, who had also died inside. Lu Qiao, standing beside him, felt the same way. Although the two usually competed fiercely, they both had deep feelings for the Star Dust Sect.
