Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 647: Zhang Feiʼs Decision

Duan Zhao repeatedly nodded as he observed the details of the spirit-grade sword that Zhang Fei showed him. ”This sword is perfect in terms of materials, model, length, and sharpness. However, you could refine it further by slightly reducing the bladeʼs thickness and slimming down the hilt. Regardless, you have done a fantastic job by successfully forging a piece of spirit-grade equipment in less than two weeks, and you are ready to compete with the younger generation of the Divine Flames Realm.”

”Please register my name in the competition as Old Gangʼs disciple, Senior Duan.”

Gang Zhishou looked at Zhang Fei in surprise. ”Why—”

Zhang Fei explained to him directly. ”Old Gang, you were the first to teach me blacksmithing, remember? Even if you donʼt want me as a disciple, I want to do this out of gratitude, so please donʼt refuse.”

”I think thatʼs a good choice.” Duan Zhao said. ”The people from the Divine Flames Realm exhibit excessive arrogance, and their leader has strong connections with the blacksmith union. Moreover, Zhang Fei doesnʼt have a name in the blacksmithing world yet, so he still lacks support. If he becomes your disciple, they wonʼt dare to do anything to him, especially since you are my disciple.”

Zhang Fei wasnʼt too afraid of the people from the Divine Flames Realm, but he didnʼt know for sure about their strength. Thatʼs why he made this decision, especially since Duan Zhao had quite the popularity and influence in the blacksmithing world in the middle realms.

Gang Zhishou released a soft sigh before agreeing. ”All right, you can do it, Master.”

”Yeah.”

After discussing various topics, Zhang Fei escorted Gang Zhishou back to the capital. Meanwhile, Duan Zhao tried to design another weapon, especially since he felt that the current one was not good enough.

Since Gang Zhishou wanted to forge other equipment to prepare for the blacksmithing competition, which was less than a month away, Zhang Fei decided to leave him and enter the training space.

Zhang Fei began building an artificial pond in the training space, especially because he wanted to transfer the blood of the beasts he had taken from Shang Xiaoyinʼs secret place to it. This way, all his women and people close to him could use the blood to temper their bodies.

In her private room, Murong Yinghua sat by the window and looked toward the Shang Clan residence, which was not too far from the fortress. She was curious about Zhang Xiaolong [3], especially because of Murong Mengyingʼs attitude toward him.

Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaolong [3] was still tempering his body in another area under Hong Xinxinʼs guidance, so Murong Yinghua was unable to find him in the residence. Her expression turned curious when she was unable to check one of the rooms, which she believed to be his. ”Did that kid use something in his room to block other peopleʼs senses from checking him out? Who exactly is he? Why does my big sister seem to think highly of him? Moreover, not only is he a disciple of the Soul Emperor, but he also appears to be Hong Xinxinʼs disciple. Aunt Qianying also treats him differently, something she has never done for anyone in my generation, let alone the generation below.”

Murong Yinghua let out a soft sigh and withdrew her senses. She immediately left the fortress and went to the Murong Clan residence in the realm, checking on every member of her clan who lived there.

A middle-aged man sat in front of Ning Menghao with a serious expression. ”Are you sure that Shang Baishi and Shang Xiaoyin are in a romantic relationship?”

”Yes.” Ning Menghao replied with a nod. ”Father, I have already verified this with two people close to Shang Xiaoyin, but I have been unable to locate them anywhere. I believe they are indeed in a romantic relationship, and they fled this realm to avoid Zhang Ziyuan. Should I report this matter to her?”

Ning Menghaoʼs father, Ning Yuzhong, considered the pros and cons first. ”Keep this matter to yourself for the time being, and I will ask the other clans for their opinions first.”

”Which clans?”

”Murong, Hong, Hao, Qiao, Tie, and Huang Clans.”

Ning Menghao then told him. ”Father, Murong Qianying and Hong Xinxin are currently in this realm, but Iʼm unsure of their exact location, and theyʼve brought Senior Hun Diʼs disciple with them.”

”Which Senior Hun Diʼs disciple is it? Is it Shang Yingyue or Qiao Liangren?”

”Neither.” Ning Menghao then explained to his father about Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ”Shang Ziyuan sent Shang Baishi to capture him, and she asked me to do the same. She didnʼt tell us that the kid was Senior Hun Diʼs disciple, and it made me think that she wanted to sacrifice us.”

Ning Yuzhong agreed with his son. ”Since Murong Qianying is with that kid, I canʼt meet her now. Hong Xinxinʼs influence is quite big in the Hong clan, but the final decision is in the hands of her father and grandfather, Hong Chong and Hong Quan. Iʼll go back and meet them first, and Iʼll go to the other clans afterward.”

”Please let me know when you get their decision, Father.”

”All right.”

After his father left, Ning Menghao let out a heavy sigh and leaned back in his chair. ”Iʼm sure the Shang Clan will weaken without Shang Huaqiang and Shang Ziyuan. If my clan and the others work together to take advantage of the chaos in their clan, Iʼm sure we can fight back and destroy them, so weʼll be free from their pressure.”

Inside the bedroom, Shang Yifen looked irritated because she still couldnʼt leave the room, and her incessant grumbling was bothering Shang Xinyu. ”Hey! Stop grumbling, Yifen! I know you want to go out, but Longʼer brought you here for your safety.”

”What do you mean by that?” Shang Yifen asked with a frown.

Shang Xinyu shook her head. ”I donʼt know what Longʼer has done to Shang Xiaoyin yet, but he told me that she will never bother us again. Actually, he did it for me, but because you are my best friend, he brought you here to ensure you wouldnʼt get involved in that trouble.”

”Are you referring to the matter regarding Shang Baishi and Shang Xiaoyinʼs relationship?”

”Yes.” Shang Xinyu nodded at her. ”Their relationship will cause significant problems, particularly if Shang Ziyuan discovers it. We are Xiaoyinʼs close people, and she will definitely blame us because we didnʼt stop her daughter. Therefore, you should wait patiently here, and Longʼer will let you out once the situation calms down.”

Shang Yifen let out a soft sigh as she realized the precarious situation. ”Why do you trust that kid so much? Where did you disappear to before? Did he hide you somewhere else?”

”Longʼer is still a child, but I love him.” Shang Xinyuʼs answer left Shang Yifen dumbfounded. ”He knew that Shang Xiaoyin was planning something bad against me because I was getting close to him and Yaolin, so he hid me in a safe place for some time, and he brought me back to this realm yesterday.”

”How could you fall in love with a child? Donʼt you feel strange about it?” Shang Yifen asked in a perplexed manner.

”Hehe.” Shang Xinyu softly giggled. ”I felt strange at first, but I realized that I fell in love with him after I lived with him and Yaolin for some time. He is still a child, but he is more mature than you think, and he is very observant of our situation. Moreover, he is very kind to me and always protects me, so I decided to accept my feelings for him. Unfortunately, he is still a child, so I canʼt introduce him to my parents yet, or they will think Iʼm crazy for falling in love with him.”

”You are indeed crazy!” Shang Yifen shouted. ”You are over hundreds of years old, and he is only 10 years old, yet you fell in love with him.”

Shang Xinyu smiled in response. ”Love knows no age, and I love him. If you have lived and known him, Iʼm sure you will also fall in love with him, especially since he is always gentle.”

”Humph!” Shang Yifen snorted in denial, but she also harbored curiosity about Zhang Xiaolong [4]. After all, Shang Yaolin had fallen for him, and her best friend had also fallen for him now.

”Instead of continuing to be upset, you should start cultivating so you can forget about your situation.” Shang Yifen nodded helplessly, and they started cultivating while waiting for Zhang Xiaolong [3] to return.

A few hours later, Zhang Fei had finished building an artificial pool inside the training space. The pool was not large compared to the pond in Shang Xiaoyinʼs secret place, and he poured most of the blood of the beasts into it. As for the rest, he wanted to build another pond in the Wasteland Realm so his third clone could use it to forge his body, which would speed up his breakthrough in body cultivation.

Zhang Fei then turned to Shi Xi, who was still learning about blacksmithing from his fifth clone. He nodded in satisfaction, especially since she looked enthusiastic and couldnʼt wait to learn to forge equipment.

Zhang Fei did not disturb them and entered the Sealed World Pearl, where Lillea, Janette, and Shi Wu were already waiting for him.

When he arrived, Zhang Fei saw that Shi Wu and the two dryads had finished planting all the herbs that the third clone had acquired on the western island of the Wasteland Realm. They had also sown the herb seeds and utilized their wood elements to hasten their growth, resulting in an abundance and diversity of herbs in that area. ʼThis way, I donʼt have to worry about the stock of herbs for my shop, but I still have to look for other types of herbs to add variety.ʼ

”Are you satisfied with the results?” Janette questioned Zhang Fei as he approached them.

Zhang Fei pulled the three women into his embrace and gave them a loving kiss. ”I am satisfied with the hard work of the three of you. This way, Lingxue and I donʼt have to worry about herbs, and we can concoct many pills to sell, especially since I need a lot of jewels to buy an important item.”

”Where did you get this place, husband?” Lillea asked as she looked in several other directions. ”The soil here is untainted by anything, and the Qi here is much richer than outside, so this is an ideal place to grow herbs and the like. Not only that, this place is also much more suitable for the members of my race to live in compared to the Fairy Forest in the Sky Jade Realm, and they will definitely enjoy living here.”

”This place is actually inside a pearl, and it has merged with my body.” The three women looked at Zhang Fei in shock. ”The Star Tower originates from the realms beyond the upper realms, and there are many interesting things in it. The Sealed World Pearl is one of the seven profound treasures, and I was truly lucky because it fell into my possession.”

”What are seven profound treasures, Master?” Shi Wu curiously asked.

”I donʼt have much information about the seven profound treasures, but each of them should have their extraordinary function, just like this Sealed World Pearl.” Zhang Fei then told the three women about the other six treasures. ”This pearl still has five sealed areas, and it also has several other functions, including time acceleration.”

”Does that mean you can speed up the flow of time in this place? How long can you speed it up?”

Zhang Fei nodded to Janette. ”I can do that, but it depends on my soul power. Iʼve tried it before, and I can only speed it up by five minutes with my current soul level, so the function is still useless for now.”

”How to open the five sealed areas?”

”I donʼt know about that yet.” Zhang Fei then scanned the area around them. ”According to the instructions, I have to nourish the pearl using my Qi, soul power, or rare resources. Those five areas will probably open up on their own after the pearl grows, but it will definitely require a long time. When this pearl has grown, I will bring members of your race to live here so you two can meet them more often.”

The two Dryads looked excited and couldnʼt wait for that day to come. They wanted their race members to become strong, especially those born without cultivation veins.

Shi Wuʼs face suddenly turned red as Janette started to undress Zhang Fei, and Lillea took off his trousers, exposing his sleeping dick to her eyes.

”Hehehe.” Janette laughed at Shi Wu as she hurriedly took off her dress, followed by Lillea. ”Little Wu, you donʼt have to be so shy, right? Our husband hasnʼt eaten you yet, but Iʼm sure he will eat you and your sister soon.”

Shi Wu had been waiting for that for a long time, but Zhang Fei told her and her sister that he would only eat them after their cultivation reached the soul realm.

After that, Janette helped Shi Wu to take off her maid outfit. Zhang Fei had asked her and Shi Xi to wear other clothes, but they insisted on wearing the maid outfits, so he let them wear them.

Once Shi Wu was naked, Janette brought her to her knees in front of Zhang Fei and placed her hand on his dick, guiding her to stroke it.

Lillea also knelt by Shi Wuʼs side, causing Zhang Fei to smile with satisfaction as he observed the three women. ”Letʼs do it together, Mom and Little Wu.”

Quickly, the three women started playing with Zhang Feiʼs dick simultaneously. Janette eagerly licked the shaft, Shi Wu shyly licked the head, and Lillea gently licked the sac while massaging them.

Zhang Fei was truly satisfied seeing the three women serving him, especially Lillea, who was the Dryad Queen.

Imperceptibly, the day changed again. Zhang Lingxue had already brought the Chu Sisters, Feng Yao, Xian Changyue, and Xian Xianqin back to their residence.

Zhang Fei, who had finished having fun with Janette, Lillea, and Shi Wu, hurriedly brought them all back to the training space to continue their training and cultivation.

As for Huang Rong and the six women from Earth, Zhang Fei took them to join his wives in the Cloud Mansion so that they wouldnʼt be lonely with so many people there.

Within the secluded house in the Wasteland Realm, Hong Xinxin kept pouring the Jianshen liquid into the wooden tub, especially since Zhang Xiaolong [3] was completely unaffected by the poisons inside.

Instead, Hong Xinxin could feel that Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs body was getting stronger as the effects of the liquid continued to temper his body, and she was truly satisfied to see the results. ”Back then, Guangming repeatedly fell unconscious when he used it to temper his body for the first time, but Longʼer had been soaking in it for a day, and he seemed still eager to continue.”

”Is it okay if he continues soaking like this?”

Hong Xinxin nodded at her. ”Even if he wants to soak in it for a whole month, it wonʼt be a problem for him. Instead, it will be much more beneficial for him, and he can break through to the third stage faster. However, his cultivation, soul cultivation, and body cultivation havenʼt broken through for long, so he canʼt do that now.”

”I see.” Murong Qianying nodded in understanding as a faint smile appeared on her face. ʼHaha! If his body cultivation breaks through again, he will be even stronger in bed.ʼ

”Longʼer; I think thatʼs enough for now.” After Zhang Xiaolong [3] opened his eyes, Hong Xinxin asked. ”How do you feel?”
