Chapter 1519: Chapter 1517 Couple Activities (Eighth Update)
After a dozen minutes, the Qiankun Cauldron stopped, and its lid flew up. The Netherworld Ghost Blade shot out of the Qiankun Cauldron, and Xiao Yifeng grasped it in his hand but could no longer feel any Ghost Evil Qi.
The entire blade seemed to have been purified and transformed into a purely supreme King’s Weapon, no longer the Netherworld Ghost Blade wreathed in Ghost Evil Qi.
"Not bad!"
Xiao Yifeng smiled slightly, placing the Netherworld Ghost Blade into the Asura Ring, intending to see who around him might use it.
Leaving the Xiao Family, Xiao Yifeng went to the Lan Family, wanting to properly thank Lan Linger for saving Hong Mei once before.
"Brother Xiao, you’re here!"
As soon as Xiao Yifeng arrived at the Lan Family, Lan Linger appeared immediately, looking incredibly happy to see him, with a tinge of shyness in her eyes.
"Ling’er, did you break through to the Opening Spirit Realm?"
Xiao Yifeng looked at Lan Linger, shock written across his face. With his insight, he noticed that she had broken through from the Nine Level of the Gathering Elixir Realm to the Opening Spirit Realm, now possessing Spiritual Sense.
It was thanks to her Spiritual Sense that she detected Xiao Yifeng’s arrival, so as soon as he stepped into the Lan Family, Lan Linger appeared.
Lan Linger’s progress was astoundingly fast; even though it was just a single realm breakthrough, moving from the Gathering Elixir Realm to the Opening Spirit Realm required the development of Spiritual Sense.
The difficulty is hundreds of times greater than breaking through from the First Level of the Gathering Elixir Realm to the Nine Level, or else the Kunlun Realm wouldn’t have just a few Opening Spirit Realm experts with the rest stuck at the Nine Level of gathering prowess. It was because breaking through to the Opening Spirit Realm is particularly challenging.
But how long has it been for Lan Linger? In just a few months, she advanced from the Gathering Elixir Realm to the Opening Spirit Realm; this speed is unparalleled.
"Yeah, I don’t know how it happened. I just accidentally advanced while cultivating!"
Lan Linger seemed puzzled.
However, Xiao Yifeng felt a burst of frustration upon hearing her words. Damn, saying it like that is downright discouraging—advancing in cultivation as easily as eating?
Comparing oneself to others is infuriating indeed!
Even Xiao Yifeng was a bit envious of Lan Linger’s Seven Orifices Exquisite Body, it was like having an ultimate cheat code!
"Brother Xiao, what’s wrong?"
Lan Linger asked, looking at Xiao Yifeng.
"Oh, nothing!"
Xiao Yifeng shook his head.
"Brother Xiao, did you come to the Lan Family for something this time?"
Lan Linger inquired.
"Didn’t you save Hong Mei last time? I came this time specifically to thank you, got time? Let me treat you to a meal!"
Xiao Yifeng offered.
"I do!"
Lan Linger replied immediately.
The two then left the Lan Family, with the old master Lan Xuande and Lan He stepping out.
"Father, it seems Ling’er is completely smitten with Little Feng!"
Lan He remarked.
"I saw it ages ago; Little Feng is her savior, and he even stormed the Saint Hall almost getting himself into trouble to save her. How could Ling’er not fall for him?"
Lan Xuande smiled softly.
"It’s just that Little Feng has too many women around him. Ling’er being with him, I fear..."
Lan He frowned slightly, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
"Don’t worry. If they truly end up together, I trust that Little Feng won’t let Ling’er suffer!"
Lan Xuande spoke calmly.
In Yanjing, at a couple’s restaurant, Xiao Yifeng and Lan Linger sat together.
"Brother Xiao, why did you choose this restaurant?"
Lan Linger looked around at the couples intimately dining, blushing slightly, and spoke shyly.
"Isn’t this restaurant okay?"
Xiao Yifeng asked in surprise while looking at the menu.
"This is a couple’s restaurant!"
Lan Linger noted.
"No worries, it’s just a meal!"
Xiao Yifeng smiled, unfazed, while Lan Linger’s thoughts began to wander.
The two ordered some dishes and started eating.
After finishing their meal and trying to pay, the restaurant server approached and said, "Sir, there’s a couple’s activity now. If the two of you can complete it, the meal is free!"
"We’re not a couple!"
Lan Linger blurted out immediately.
"No worries, what’s the activity?"
Xiao Yifeng asked.
"The two of you must eat this biscuit from each end until it’s less than one centimeter. If you succeed, the meal is free!"
The server presented a biscuit and looked at them.
Lan Linger’s cheeks flushed, eyes twinkling.
Xiao Yifeng felt a bit awkward, glanced at Lan Linger, and said, "Let’s skip this one."
"Brother Xiao, why don’t we try it? It’s just a biscuit, and if we succeed, it’ll be free!"
Lan Linger suggested to Xiao Yifeng, with a glint of unexplainable anticipation in her eyes.
"Yes, sir, you can try. It’s okay even if you fail!"
The server encouraged.
"Alright then!"
Xiao Yifeng nodded. After all, there’s no harm in it for him.
The server placed a biscuit in front of them. Each bit an end and began slowly eating, as the biscuit shortened, their faces drew closer.
Soon, their noses touched, and Lan Linger’s face was full of blush.
"Just a bit more, and you’ve completed the challenge!"
The server urged.
Xiao Yifeng continued to bite forward, and their lips momentarily touched. Lan Linger’s eyes widened in shock.
Xiao Yifeng quickly let go, and Lan Linger also released, allowing a tiny piece of biscuit to fall into the server’s waiting hand.
At this moment, Lan Linger’s face was crimson, covering her mouth in embarrassment.
"Congratulations to both of you for completing the challenge; this meal is free!"
The server measured the remaining biscuit and announced.
"Thank you!"
Xiao Yifeng said, looking at the still somewhat dazed Lan Linger, "Ling’er, let’s go!"
"Oh!"
Lan Linger snapped back to reality, quickly getting up to leave the restaurant with Xiao Yifeng.
Still outside the restaurant, Lan Linger hadn’t yet composed herself.
"Ling’er, I’m sorry about earlier..."
Xiao Yifeng said awkwardly to Lan Linger.
"It’s okay, Brother Xiao, I was the one who suggested doing the activity!"
Lan Linger shook her head.
"Then let me walk you home!"
Xiao Yifeng offered.
However, just then, Xiao Yifeng’s phone suddenly rang; it was a call from Yan Haotian.
"What’s up, Dragon Head?"
Xiao Yifeng asked.
"Little Feng, where are you now?"
Yan Haotian’s voice was serious.
"I’m in Yanjing, why? Did something happen?"
Xiao Yifeng wondered aloud.
"Something major occurred; a super strong presence has appeared in Yanjing, and we can’t handle it. Many of our brothers have been injured or worse, so I reached out to you, hoping you could help!"
Yan Haotian’s tone was grave.
