Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 714: Feng Yao - Luo Xuejia

Feng Yao was already sitting in front of a woman with long, curly brunette hair. Unlike the female cultivators who typically wore hanfu, she was wearing a fairly modern outfit that resembled Earthʼs clothing.

Behind the brunette woman, a man and a woman stand with tense expressions. They felt oppressed by Feng Yaoʼs aura, and none of them dared speak.

Without further ado, Feng Yao took out and showed the woman her phoenix token, which caused her to become tense. ”Luo Xuejia, right? I believe you must have heard from Huoyun Zhiyan and the others about Feng Xishuiʼs visit, and you must have heard about the deaths of Lian Jinshu and several others.”

”Yes, I am Luo Xuejia.” Even though her voice sounded calm, Luo Xuejia was afraid to offend Feng Yao. ”Can you please tell me your identity, Senior? What is your purpose in coming here to see me?”

”I donʼt want to exchange pleasantries with you, and I came here to ask you to leave the Alchemy Union.” Luo Xuejia and the two people behind her looked shocked after Feng Yao said that. ”You only have two choices now: leave the organization or leave this realm.”

”What do you mean by that, Senior?”

Feng Yao stared at the three for a moment before answering. ”If you donʼt leave the organization, you will meet the same fate as Lian Jinshu and the others. If you leave the organization, I can give you a better opportunity for your future, and you can still stay here for the time being. However, the opportunity is not without conditions, but you donʼt need to worry because the conditions are not difficult.”

”Please tell me the conditions, Senior.”

”You must have heard about the Sky Jade Shop in the Xian and Yun Kingdoms, right?” Luo Xuejia nodded to Feng Yao. ”My sister and her husband own the shop, and your organization has attempted to harm them. Thatʼs why I sent Feng Xishui to your higher-ups to suppress them, but those foolish people still thought of doing something by sending Nanfeng Yunxi to them.”

Luo Xuejia took a deep breath and clenched both fists, especially since she already knew about Nanfeng Yunxiʼs arrival. ”Do you want me to leave my organization and join them, Senior?”

”Thatʼs right.” Feng Yao then continued. ”To tell you the truth, my brother-in-law killed Lian Jinshu, Cheng Feng, and the others. Soon, Wei Chou, Qu Qiuxue, and Han Ling will follow them. If you stay in this realm, itʼs just a matter of time before your turn comes.”

Feng Yaoʼs statement appeared to irritate the three people, yet they did not refute her. ”Why is your brother-in-law targeting me? Weʼve never even met each other, so we donʼt have any problems.”

”My brother-in-lawʼs principles are simple, and he will destroy all his enemies down to the roots. Since your organization is his enemy, he also considers you as an enemy.” Feng Yaoʼs answer left Luo Xuejia and the other two shocked and flabbergasted. ”Therefore, I came here to prevent that from happening, and I offered you the opportunity because of your qualities; otherwise, I wouldnʼt have bothered coming here. Your organizationʼs leadersʼ past mistakes will slow its growth, and staying with them will slow yours. On the contrary, you will grow faster if you join my sister and brother-in-law, and you will be able to see many things that you have never imagined before.”

”I—”

”You donʼt need to decide now.” Feng Yao interrupted Luo Xuejia by waving her hand. ”My sister and brother-in-law are in seclusion and will leave in six months, so you have time to consider my offer.”

After she said that, Feng Yao immediately disappeared from the place, especially since she felt she had enough to talk with them.

The woman behind Luo Xuejia immediately asked. ”What should we do now, Big Sis?”

”Shall we inform our higher-ups about this matter, Big Sis?” The man also asked.

”Do you want to die, Pei Yun?” The man immediately shut his mouth, and Luo Xuejia answered the woman. ”Actually, Yi Zuoli, the womanʼs words about our organization are true. Our leaders once tried to invade the upper realms, but they made a fatal mistake by causing a commotion in several realms. The alchemists from the upper realms ultimately drove them out, threatening to destroy our organization if they returned. As long as our organization cannot exist there, we will not be able to grow. If we want to continue to grow, we have to leave it and join another organization.”

”Does that mean you will accept that womanʼs offer, Big Sis?” Yi Zuoli asked.

Luo Xuejia shook her head. ”We still have half a year to think about this matter, and I wonʼt make a hasty decision. If that man comes here, I will give him my answer at that time.”

Yi Zuoli nodded in understanding, but Pei Yun then asked, ”Should we warn Wei Chou and the others?”

”No need.” Luo Xuejia immediately rejected it. ”Lian Jinshu initiated all of this turmoil, resulting in the deaths of numerous members of our group. I donʼt think that guy targeted Wei Chou for no apparent reason, and he might have already caused trouble with him, so we donʼt need to interfere in their matter. That woman must still be observing us from a distance, and intervening in their matter would be tantamount to courting death.”

Despite his desire to assist his comrades, Pei Yunʼs fear of death overshadowed his desire, leading him to agree with Luo Xuejia. ”All right, I wonʼt tell them anything.”

”Thatʼs good.” Luo Xuejia then stood up from her seat and walked towards the exit. ”I donʼt know whatʼs happening in this kingdom, but I feel that massive chaos will happen soon. Even so, we donʼt need to care about that, and we will remain focused on our affairs.”

”Yes, Big Sis.” Yi Zuoli and Pei Yun answered in unison.

Three women walked together towards a bedroom, but they were stunned when they entered. They exchanged confused glances and pondered the same question in their hearts. ʼSince when did Zhang Fei [5] and Bai Tianʼer become so close? They even cultivate their souls together through dual soul cultivation.ʼ

Simultaneously with the appearance of the two notifications, Zhang Fei [5], sensing the presence of the three women, began to pull his Yang Qi back. Bai Tianʼer immediately followed him by pulling her Yin Qi back.

Unlike Zhang Fei [5], who smiled casually, Bai Tianʼer felt embarrassed by their gazes. ”Why did you three come here?”

”Haha.” Yuan Luo laughed and sat down beside Bai Tianʼer, teasing her. ”Does this mean that you two are lovers now?”

”Why did you two cultivate only your souls but not your bodies?” Ru Yanyue asked Bai Tianʼer with a playful smile.

Unlike them, Ye Zhiqiu was more curious about why Zhang Fei [5] was spending time with Bai Tianʼer. Furthermore, it was evident that he had not entered from the outside but had sneaked directly into her room.

”Senior Ye, donʼt be so curious about me, or you will be captivated by my handsomeness.” Ye Zhiqiu pouted her lips and sat on an empty bench, making Zhang Fei [5] want to pinch her lips. ”Senior Yuan and Senior Ru, you donʼt need to tease Senior Bai anymore. We donʼt have any relationship yet, and I came here specifically to talk to her. Instead, she shared her memories with me, so it was easier for me to understand her. Since we are both soul cultivators, and I have a lot of free time now, we cultivate our souls together.”

”Hehe.” Yuan Luo giggled and asked him. ”Does that mean youʼve considered accepting Sister Tianʼer?”

”Not yet.” Zhang Fei [5]ʼs answer disappointed Bai Tianʼer. ”Even though Iʼve read all of her memories, I still havenʼt thought about accepting her, especially since thereʼs another matter we need to discuss first.”

The other matter that Zhang Fei [5] naturally meant was his desire to take Bai Shushi as his woman, but he didnʼt intend to tell the three women.

”What kind of matter do you want to discuss with Sister Tianʼer again?” Ru Yanyue curiously asked.

Bai Tianʼer immediately rebuked her. ”Yanyue, you donʼt need to interfere in my personal matters; instead, you should think about your relationship with Yu Chongming.”

”Hahaha!” Yuan Luo laughed out loud. ”Sister Tianʼer is right, Sister Yanyue. We all know that you and Brother Yu like each other, but you two keep avoiding having a serious relationship with each other. If you continue like this, you will become a spinster. In less than three weeks, I will marry Brother Chu, and we plan to have children straight away.”

”Huh?” Ru Yanyue and the others turned to Yuan Luo in shock. ”Do you guys really want to have a child straight away?”

”Yes.” Yuan Luo nodded to them. ”As you already know, Brother Chu no longer has any family, and my parents have been yearning for a grandchild, so we decided to have a child as soon as possible.”

After Yuan Luo mentioned Ximen Chuixueʼs family, the three women released heavy sighs, especially since Ximen Gongfu had killed his family members.

Zhang Fei [5] immediately took out three pills and gave them to Yuan Luo. ”Two pills will increase intimacy on your wedding night, and the third pill will help you to get pregnant.”

”Eh? Will I get pregnant immediately if I take the third pill?” Yuan Luo asked in surprise.

”Yes.” Zhang Fei [5] nodded at her. ”I dare to guarantee the result.”

Yuan Luo immediately ran away from them. ”I will tell Brother Chu about this, and he will definitely be thrilled.”

”Hey, Zhang Fei! You already have so many wives, but why donʼt you have any children with them yet?”

”Hehe.” Zhang Fei [5] chuckled before proceeding with his explanation. ”Honestly, I want to have children with all of them, but I donʼt want to have one right now, especially since my strength is still far from enough to protect them. Moreover, I still have a high dream, so I donʼt want to have children before I can achieve it. When I can achieve it, it means that I have the strength to ensure their safety.”

”What is your dream?”

”For my family to live safely and peacefully, I must become the strongest in this universe.” Zhang Fei [5]ʼs answer caused the three womenʼs jaws to drop. ”You three may think that my dream is too lofty, but I am confident in my abilities, and I will succeed in achieving it someday.”

Ye Zhiqiu let out a soft sigh before speaking. ”If someone else said that, I definitely wouldnʼt believe him. However, you have already proven your abilities to us by leading us to pass all the challenges of the first floor of the Star Tower, so I believe that you will succeed in becoming the strongest in this universe.”

”Unlike you, I donʼt dare to dream that high; I didnʼt even manage to clear the first floor.” Ru Yanyue sighed heavily. ”Moreover, I know my limits, and I donʼt have the ability to reach that high point, so I feel satisfied with my life now.”

”You are wrong, Senior Ru.” Zhang Fei [5] said with a shake of his head. ”Some people have advantages that make it easier for them to achieve their dreams, but some others have to work harder to achieve theirs. As long as you donʼt give up on your dreams, Iʼm sure you can achieve them, and you just have to work harder than anyone else. You might think I can be strong like this because of my advantages, but I can tell you that I worked really hard to reach this stage.”

Ye Zhiqiu then asked. ”Are you able to become as strong as you are now because of your clone technique? As I recall, you said that you have five clones.”

”Yes.” Since they already knew about it, Zhang Fei [5] didnʼt cover it up anymore. ”My clone technique is my greatest advantage, and I can do many things at once. Currently, my real body is dual cultivating with all my wives, and my clones do other things, such as alchemy.”

Ye Zhiqiu and Ru Yanyue finally realized that the man in front of them was just a clone, especially since Zhang Feiʼs real body and the clones didnʼt differ in the slightest.

Zhang Fei [5] then got out of bed. ”Even though most of Zhou Xiaochuanʼs subordinates are already in my hands, you guys should not take on any missions in the Zhou Kingdom and its surroundings.”

”What about the Huangfu Kingdom?”

”You can take missions in that kingdom area, but you must not get too close to the Hungfu Royal Capital to avoid any unwanted incidents.” The three women nodded in agreement to Zhang Fei [5]. ”I still have other matters, so I must leave now.”

Bai Tianʼer let out a soft sigh after Zhang Fei [5] disappeared. ”I will go see our master now, and I will return to the Bai Kingdom afterward.”

.

.

Unlike the other teleportation portals, Zhang Fei [5] did not install one connecting to the Huangfu Kingdom near his residence. Instead, he installed it far away from the human island, precisely on the demon island.

After that, Zhang Fei [5] went straight to Huangfu Lianʼs room in the Huangfu Royal Palace. ”My father is in a meeting with his minister right now, but he sent Ling Baozi to the Xian Kingdom to look for you.”

”Oh?” Zhang Fei [5] was slightly taken aback by this and promptly searched for the old manʼs location, only to discover that he was still quite distant from the Xian Kingdom. ”Since Ling Baozi came to me himself, I will not waste this opportunity, and I will meet him later.”

”Are you going to see the fake Ruo Yanxi?” Zhang Fei [5] just nodded and activated his invisibility, leaving Huangfu Lian dumbfounded. ”Sigh! If I werenʼt overconfident with myself, I wouldnʼt end up being his slave like now.”

When Zhang Fei [5] arrived there, the fake Ruo Yanxi immediately knelt in front of him. ”You enjoyed your time with Huangfu Shou, huh?”

”What can I do for you, Master?”

”Have you started poisoning Huangfu Shou?” The fake Ruo Yanxi nodded to Zhang Fei [5], who immediately touched her and injected his pink gas into her body. He also handed her a bottle of pills along with another item. ”I want you to use them on Helian Yueyi and the other concubines, and you should know your next task, right?”

”Yes, Master.”

”Go to Helian Yueyi now.” After the fake Ruo Yanxi left, Zhang Fei [5] rushed to Huangfu Xiaoying and Huangfu Xiaomeiʼs room. He raised his eyebrows slightly upon noticing the black liquid covering nearly the entire body of the two women. He then took a small amount and stored it in the inventory. ʼMei, I want you to check this black liquid and inform me of the results as soon as possible.ʼ

[Yes, Master. Are you going to do something to these two women?]

ʼNaturally, I have to do something with them, and they will be my weapon against their father.ʼ Zhang Fei [5] then touched the two women and locked up their subconscious. ʼOnce Li Tiannan returns to this realm, I will release them from my ability, and Huangfu Shou will be shocked by my gift.ʼ

After that, Zhang Fei [5] went to Earth to take stock of items from warehouses in all countries, especially since his stock was running out too fast with six stores operating simultaneously. Naturally, he did not forget to visit the two winged races, Jiang Yinghua and Meng Tianshi.

Meanwhile, the fake Ruo Yanxi had already arrived at Helian Yueyiʼs room, and the empress was lying on her bed. ”You seem exhausted, Sister Yueyi.”

”Youʼre right, Yanxi.” Helian Yueyi then patted her side. ”Come here and talk to me.”

The fake Ruo Yanxi immediately approached Helian Yueyi and lay down beside her. The pink gas quickly seeped out of her body, which the empress began to inhale. ”Are you this tired because youʼre thinking about your two daughters?”
