When the banquet ended, the people leaving the private room all looked rather grim.

One reason is that they finally understand just how ruthless the special envoy Xia Zhi's methods are, and the second piece of bad news is that they may need to fight extremely dangerous demons in order to find the main card [Green Harbor].

On the way back to the Battle Academy.

Chen Feng and Xue Nai then discussed this matter further.

"Chen Feng, you and Wei Yang killed a purple dog demon before. Can you tell me the details?" Xue Nai asked from the passenger seat.

Chen Feng paused for a moment, but his mind was already racing, rapidly rehearsing how he and Wei Yang would kill the Purple Dog Demon.

"We had just finished eating with Weiyang's friends and were thinking of taking a walk nearby, but suddenly we saw a lot of military and police vehicles driving in that area, so we went over to take a look... Ms. Xuenai, please believe me, we absolutely did not do it on purpose."

"I understand now."

After listening to Chen Feng's story, Xue Nai said calmly, her arms crossed, as if she suddenly felt a little cold.

Chen Feng glanced at Xue Nai's expression.

However, nothing was found...

So Chen Feng turned around and looked at Xiao Xue in the back seat, wanting to steer the conversation elsewhere to prevent Xue Nai from continuing to ask about the details.

However, when Chen Feng looked at Xiao Xue, he found that Xiao Xue, who had dared to confront Jian Mei back then, was now looking at him with her beautiful peach blossom eyes, looking quite shy.

"Xiaoxue, where else would you like to go?"

"Huh?" Xiaoxue was startled by Chen Feng's sudden invitation. Whether it was out of fear of her aunt's punishment or for some other reason, she kept staring at Chen Feng and forgot to reply for a moment.

Upon hearing their conversation, Xue Nai immediately lowered her hands and glared at Chen Feng with annoyance.

"Chen Feng, there are less than ten days left until the end of the semester. Are you ready to join the Starfish City Guard?"

The meaning of "雪耐" is quite clear.

This is giving you a chance, so don't let it slip by!

Chen Feng nodded, freeing his right hand and forming the Demon Slayer Armor on its surface.

"Currently at level 7, I will be able to advance again soon."

Seeing the Azure Dragon Armor, Demon Slayer Armor, and Zerg Hunter Armor appear in Chen Feng's hands one after another.

Xue Nai was also a little surprised. Perhaps she didn't expect what kind of human Chen Feng was, that he could learn so many different kinds of armor in less than a month after awakening.

So Xuenai turned her head and looked at the vehicles in front of her again.

"Alright, as long as you can handle it yourself. But things haven't been very peaceful in Haixing City lately. If you're going out, it would be best to take a walk along the Wangyue River. I can go meet up with some friends nearby."

"Auntie, what are your friends doing by the river?" Xiaoxue asked, leaning closer, her tone tinged with suspicion.

"He sells fish, and the fish he catches are quite big," Xue Nai said coldly.

......

Starfish City at night.

Neon lights illuminated the suspended walkways on both sides of the river, turning the shimmering water a flowing violet hue.

Since ancient times, this city, known as "Starfish City," has been built along the well-connected Wangyue River. All the important buildings, including the government building, the combat academy, the commercial building, and even the luxury private room we just entered, are located in this starfish-shaped cluster of buildings.

The deep purple river water churned below the riverbank, while the citizens of Starfish City strolled on the moss-covered stones.

"It's been so long since I've been here..."

Xiaoxue took a deep breath of the riverside air.

"There are still a lot of people here."

Among the strolling citizens, many young men and women had firefly-like lights swirling around their fingertips; an elderly man with silver hair walked along, surrounded by translucent talismans that spun around him like stars orbiting the moon; and a tall, muscular man in black clothes ran through the crowd, accompanied by a pack of enormous wolves.

Whether they are a sketch artist apprentice, an experienced rune master, or a beast tamer police officer.

They all seemed to form part of the beautiful nighttime scenery along the river in Haixing City.

Just as the three continued walking forward.

"Braised crucian carp with fermented soybean paste, catfish and tofu casserole, and freshwater perch that's sweet and boneless—all the fish you think are delicious are here!!"

A middle-aged man was squatting at the end of the stone steps by the roadside, lifting the water plants covering the lid of his basket while shouting loudly.

However, faint blue lines were visible on the palms of his hands, and a chilling aura emanated from them.

Clearly, he is another combatant, and his rank is not low.

Chen Feng sensed something and, sure enough, saw Xiaoxue's aunt, Xue Nai, begin to walk towards the man.

"How much was the all-inclusive price?"

As Xue Nai took out her wallet, she asked, but her eyes did not linger on the man for even a moment.

When the man saw Xue Nai's appearance clearly, he was stunned.

A hint of loneliness also shone through his chiseled, handsome face.

"It's free."

Upon hearing this, Xue Nai laughed, but her laughter revealed a sense of helplessness and disdain.

Chen Feng even felt that the snow was more than 20 degrees colder than the coldest time before!

"I can't afford free fish..." Xue said impatiently, while glancing at Xiao Xue behind her.

Hearing Xue Nai's reply.

The middle-aged man simply nodded with a wry smile and said, "Then... 2000 in cash."

"2000, right...?"

Xue Nai repeated impatiently, then looked at her wallet, took out a wad of cash, and handed it to the middle-aged man.

"Here you go, pack the fish nicely, it's for my people..."

Chen Feng frowned and immediately looked at Xiao Xue beside him.

Sure enough, Xiaoxue, who was once overjoyed, now silently looked at the man in front of Xue Nai, and the hand that had been holding Chen Feng involuntarily fell down.

"Are you alright, Xiaoxue?" Chen Feng asked with concern.

Xiaoxue sniffed, and the tip of her nose seemed to flush a pale pink, like cherry blossoms.

After a long while, Xiaoxue sniffed, tilted her head back to reveal her slightly moist eyes, and said to Chen Feng, "It seems like some sand got into my eyes just now."

"There wasn't much wind tonight, how could sand have blown in?"

As Chen Feng spoke, he gently patted Xiaoxue's back and softly comforted her...

"It's just that sand got in..." Xiaoxue murmured.

When Xue Nai brought the fish to the two of them.

Chen Feng and Xiao Xue had already sat on the railing by the river, watching the dark purple river water churning.

Xuenai brought the fish that the man had caught to the two of them, but her expression as she looked at Xuenai seemed a little complicated.

It seemed to carry a hint of guilt, but more than that, it was resolute.
