Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 991: Contacting Erica

Shortly after accepting the platinum card from Norman, the rest of the time proceeded with Xu Feng earning more recognition.

By the end of their time duration, Xu Feng finally had to excuse himself and said he needed to pay to remain in the city.

”Sorry, everyone, but the 1 hour free duration granted to me is over. If I remain here without paying, then I’m going to be detained.” He apologized.

The crowd and those top figures were disheartened. Although they could easily pay on his behalf, the rules of the city couldn’t be bent.

This was to ensure absolute fairness.

Not even top figures like them were allowed to break the rules unless it was under special circumstances.

These special circumstances usually had to do with the life or death of the city. And it was obvious that Xu Feng’s ability to answer their doubts didn’t warrant the death of the city.

Thus, they had no choice but to agree to let him leave. Nevertheless, they made sure to hand over their business cards and emphasized to Xu Feng that he was always welcome to their affiliated stores or places.

Sometime later, Xu Feng and Carmen managed to escape the large crowd.

”Phew, I thought a stampede might have occurred.” Carmen heaved a sigh of relief. Truth be told, she had noticed the situation was starting to get abnormal and dangerous.

There were more and more people arriving who wanted to see the other top figures, as well as the person of interest.

She had thought her deed at the Resonance Arena was impressive enough.

But sure enough, the statement, ”There will always be a higher mountain” stands true and firm.

”Yeah, I didn’t expect such a huge commotion either.” Xu Feng smiled bitterly. He never planned on being so high-key and was just planning on racking enough points before the 1-hour duration.

”Well, it’s not a bad thing.” Carmen smiled lightly. ”You managed to gain connections with these top figures, and I managed to gain some through the arena events.”

”Oh, you went to the arena?”

”Mhmm, it was a blast.”

Afterward, Carmen relayed the event from the arena to Xu Feng. When he finished listening, he was amazed and baffled.

Amazed by Carmen’s ability and baffled by Derek for being so dumb.

’That Derek has been scamming for so long but still got swindled by Carmen. How embarrassing was that.’ Xu Feng thought.

But then again, considering Carmen’s natural talent and learning capability. It was easy to understand how she could act like some naive woman.

”Anyway, are we going to pay the entry fee now?” She questioned.

”No, you can pay for that advanced training fee. I’ll be signing off for now.” Having said that, Xu Feng directly transferred a majority of his points to her identity card.

Initially, Carmen was dumbfounded, but then she recalled their previous conversation. It was stated that Zhao Kai was going to participate in the city competition, and Xu Feng would be accompanying the former.

”Alright, then I’ll remain here.” Carmen nodded and didn’t dare to stall him any longer.

Chuckling, Xu Feng was teleported out of Resonance City and returned to Vermont City. Without even lingering further, he directly logged out of the Divine world.

After a brief moment of darkness, a gaming capsule in the living room opened up.

As the gaming capsule opened, Xu Feng emerged. His body was somewhat soaked, clearly a sign of exhaustion and fatigue.

”Damn, it’s really not wise to play for so long.” He exhaled softly and hurriedly went to the living room to grab a Life Water to drink. A few large chugs later, he found himself rejuvenated again.

However, as he glanced at the empty living room again and no post-it notes card. He somehow found it quite bitter and sorrowful.

Back then, whenever he came out from the gaming capsule, Erica would be lying on the couch, watching some television drama.

”What happened to her?” He began to worry for her.

She was his landlord after all. The month was about to end, and he usually paid his rent in cash with a receipt in return.

He didn’t pay through an online bank because he was wary of leaving any traces online. Although he did something in the Global Trust Bank, it wasn’t enough to completely blockade the top authorities from accessing it.

”Forget it, let’s just give her a call.” Shaking his head, he took out his phone and dialed Erica’s number.

Just when he thought it wouldn’t be picked up, the ringing went on for 3 seconds before a voice resounded from the other end.

”Xu Feng?” Erica’s voice seemed confused. ”What’s the matter?”

Xu Feng was taken aback slightly, but he managed to compose his emotion swiftly. ”The month’s about to end, so I was wondering where my landlord went to pay the rent.”

”Ah, you can just forget about it for now. I won’t be returning to the condo long term because of family issues.” Erica hurriedly brushed it off and continued, ”Moreover, I’m sure that you always wanted the condo for yourself. Otherwise, there was no way you would have accepted the condition to rent my place from the beginning when you have no idea of the owner’s identity.”

Stunned, Xu Feng never anticipated his secret thoughts to be exposed in front of her.

”No need to feel any guilt.” While Xu Feng remained silent, Erica chuckled and said, ”I’m only letting you temporarily feel how it is to be the owner of the condo. But I will definitely return once I resolve my end of the matter.”

”Very well, then. I hope the family issue you mentioned is resolved.” Xu Feng calmly spoke. ”Otherwise, I might just be squatting and using the law to overtake it.”

”You could, but I doubt you are that shameless. Well, you are shameless, but not to that kind.”

Before Xu Feng could even respond, Erica already hung up the phone on her side. Based on this, Xu Feng determined that she must have been busy but still chose to answer his phone to address the events.
