It wasn't until past two in the morning that Cheng Xiaofan reeled in the rain from the sky and returned home.
At this point, Cheng Xiaofan knew that his Bai goddess and Shen Ruobing were sleeping soundly. Fearing he might disturb them, he tiptoed back to his own bedroom.
After a quick shower, Cheng Xiaofan had just lay down on the bed.
With a creak, the closed door was pushed open again.
*Thud!*
The bedroom light flickered on.
Bai Yiling walked in, her face blooming into a smile, and said, "Xiaofan, I knew you were back!"
Cheng Xiaofan immediately sprang up from the bed, scooped up his Bai goddess into his arms, and kissed her fiercely.
He said, "My goddess, how did you know I was back?"
Bai Yiling chuckled, "In my sleep, I heard the cry of the Breaking Sky Eagle from the sky, and I knew you were back!"
"..." Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but freeze at her words.
When he returned from Nanshan Lake, he had specifically instructed the Breaking Sky Eagle not to make a sound, lest he awaken his Bai goddess who was resting.
How could she have heard the eagle's cry?
With a roll of his eyes, Cheng Xiaofan finally understood. His Bai goddess must have sensed his return with her spiritual awareness.
He immediately realized that Bai Yiling had made a new breakthrough in her cultivation.
He decided to seize this opportunity, strike while the iron was hot, and communicate face-to-face, passing on some of the power he had gained in the desert oasis to her.
Cheng Xiaofan immediately pulled her onto the bed.
...
An hour later.
The two lay peacefully nestled together.
"Xiaofan, did you encounter a new miraculous encounter on this trip?" After a long pause, Bai Yiling asked Cheng Xiaofan with a smile.
Cheng Xiaofan said curiously, "Bai goddess, how did you know?"
Bai Yiling replied, "When we were communicating face-to-face just now, I felt you transmit a brand new power into me."
"And this power made me feel a new sublimation throughout my entire body!"
Cheng Xiaofan nodded and said, "You're right. This time, on the Gobi Desert near Fuzhou, I entered a prehistoric oasis on Earth that had opened up!"
Bai Yiling's beautiful eyes widened instantly. "What, a prehistoric oasis on Earth? This... it's so magical, so sci-fi, so mystical!"
Although her curiosity was sky-high, she didn't press for further details.
Bai Yiling knew what questions to ask and what not to ask.
Besides, some things her mysterious man would tell her even if she didn't ask.
At this point, Cheng Xiaofan briefly told Bai Yiling about the hidden black people and his trip to Fuzhou.
When he mentioned entering the desert oasis, Cheng Xiaofan couldn't help but beam with excitement, "I never expected that in the prehistoric oasis on Earth, there were many spirit beasts that had become sentient. They could not only speak human languages but also possessed human thinking abilities."
"However, a few spirit beasts were simply suicidal and tried to attack me, so I killed them!"
"Tomorrow, gather Long Xingyun and some cultivators, and have a good get-together at home for lunch. Let them taste the meat of animals I brought back from prehistoric Earth."
"This meat is truly a heavenly treasure for cultivators."
As he got carried away, Cheng Xiaofan casually took a fragrant roasted wild chicken from his spatial storage and said, "Bai goddess, this is a wild chicken I caught in the prehistoric oasis. I've already roasted it. Try this wild chicken!"
Bai Yiling jumped off the bed and said, "I'll go get Shen Ruobing, and we'll eat together!"
She didn't even bother to put on her shoes, her bare, tender feet running out of the bedroom.
Not long after, Bai Yiling returned with Shen Ruobing.
By then, Cheng Xiaofan had already cut the wild chicken into pieces and arranged them neatly on a plate.
That special, captivating aroma filled the entire bedroom.
"So fragrant!" Shen Ruobing exclaimed in pleasant surprise.
In front of Bai Yiling, she couldn't say anything intimate to Cheng Xiaofan.
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "You two, taste it quickly!"
The two peerless beauties each took a piece of the roasted wild chicken and put it into their mouths.
As soon as they chewed a few times, they were immediately amazed, "Oh my god, this is simply the most delicious thing in the world, it's truly too good to eat."
Bai Yiling asked, "Xiaofan, did you prepare something delicious for Mom and Dad too?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "I did. River monster meat, and venison, plenty of it!"
In the spiritual realm of the desert oasis, Cheng Xiaofan had encountered an unexpected lightning tribulation, and some nearby wild spirit beasts had also suffered.
He had picked up hundreds of various spirit birds and exotic beasts that had been struck to death by lightning around that mountain area alone.
It was estimated that these birds and beasts were too curious and had rushed to watch the excitement when Cheng Xiaofan faced the lightning tribulation, but instead, they lost their lives.
As for his own lightning tribulation, Cheng Xiaofan naturally dared not tell the two beauties beside him.
After all, it was a matter of life and death, and he didn't want to worry them by mentioning it.
The general roasted wild chicken meat was consumed by the two beautiful cultivators in the blink of an eye.
Bai Yiling licked her fingers, winked at Cheng Xiaofan, and said mischievously, "Xiaofan, there's still over an hour until dawn. Take advantage of this time, and you can have some quality time with Ruobing!"
After saying that, she jumped up and walked out of the bedroom.
*Bang!*
She closed the bedroom door behind her...
After dawn, Cheng Xiaofan moved a large piece of river monster meat from his spatial storage, along with other exotic birds and beasts hunted from the desert oasis, and handed it over to Tang Guoxing.
Hearing that these were all products from prehistoric Earth, Tang Guoxing was so shocked that he almost went mad.
Cheng Xiaofan patted his shoulder and smiled, "Old Tang, don't spread this matter around. It would be one thing if you went mad, but if outsiders found out, it wouldn't just be one person going mad!"
Tang Guoxing chuckled, "Mr. Cheng, you are right, completely right. This matter indeed cannot be spread outside. If outsiders knew that we were even eating prehistoric Earth products, let alone anything else, some important departments would surely come knocking."
Cheng Xiaofan heard this and burst into laughter, "So what if they come looking? What proof do they have that we are eating prehistoric animals?"
"If they have the ability, let them go and get it!"
Tang Guoxing was stunned by his words and pouted, "Mr. Cheng, you have a point, a real point. So, if it gets out, we don't have to worry about anything?"
Cheng Xiaofan immediately shook his head, "Absolutely not. If it gets out, everyone will come knocking asking for food. How can I provide?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Cheng, I finally understand what you mean!" Tang Guoxing said repeatedly, as if struck by enlightenment.
After bidding farewell to Tang Guoxing, Cheng Xiaofan went to his parents' home.
At his parents' place, he didn't dare to say that the things he had given them were from the prehistoric spiritual realm of Earth.
He simply said he had gone on a long trip and brought back some rare animal meat.
"Woof woof!"
As soon as he came out of his parents' house, the mischievous Tao Qi Bao pounced in front of Cheng Xiaofan, his eyes filled with mournful reproach.
