Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1781: Zhang Fei - Huli Chenying

[Ding]

[You gained 30,000,000 Qi from Yan Tianling.]

[You gained 30,000,000 female essences from Yan Tianling.]

Yang Washeng’s heart tightened when he saw his son die with a dried-up body, especially after his qi and demon essence were absorbed by Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei stood dumbfounded in his spot, staring at the two notifications. He remembered obtaining only ten million yin qi and female essences from dual cultivation with Qi Qingxiu and Ye Mingran, whereas he had received twelve million from Dong Xuanyin. Yet, he had received three times that amount from Yan Tianling, despite the fact that the male demon had not yet reached Demon God Rank.

[The difference between cultivators in the Paradise Realm and the Ancient Realm is too wide, Master. If you dual cultivate with Hua Qianmei, I estimate that you will gain more than fifty million yin qi and female essence from her.]

Zhang Fei agreed with Mei, but he hasn’t thought about it yet. He pulled the Demon Extermination Sword from Yan Tianling’s body, letting his corpse fall to the ground. He rubbed the blade of the sword and asked. ”Did you two absorb enough his qi, Hei’an and Guang’an?”

Zing...Zing...

The Demon Extermination Sword vibrated in excitement.

”I’ll find more qi for you two.” Zhang Fei returned the Demon Extermination Sword into his body before turning his head towards the sound of light footsteps heading towards them. ”A non-demon female fox?” ’Scan her status, Mei.’

[The system failed to scan that female fox’s status, Master.]

Zhang Fei’s expression turned serious after Mei made that statement, as the system had previously failed to scan other people’s status only twice. Additionally, he sensed something unusual about the female fox, but he was uncertain about his intuition.

Noticing Zhang Fei’s strange gaze, Qi Qingxiu and the others turned their heads to the female fox. They were momentarily stunned by her beauty, especially when they saw her smile. They felt oppressed by her presence and aura, but the pressure emanating from her was far different from any pressure they had ever experienced before.

The female fox was none other than Huli Chenying. She didn’t look at the others. Her playful, seductive gaze was completely focused on Zhang Fei. She stopped in front of them and pointed to Yan Tianling’s corpse. ”Do you still need his corpse? If you don’t need it anymore, can you give it to me?”

Yan Washeng, who was still mourning the death of his eldest son, looked at Huli Chenying. However, he quickly averted his gaze when he saw the look in her eyes; even his body trembled inexplicably, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Zhang Fei wanted to ask Huli Chenying something regarding his suspicions about her, but he felt that the time and location were not right to ask that.

”Hey!” Huli Chenying looked at Huo Ling, who was sitting on Zhang Fei’s shoulders. ”Where is your master? Did she come here with you?”

”Eh?” Huli Chenying was taken aback. ”Do you know anything about me?”

Huo Ling shook her head. ”I’ve never met you before, so I don’t know anything about you. However, I’ve met your master and her mother about two decades ago.”

Zhang Fei sucked in a deep breath because Huo Ling’s words proved his suspicions, and he was sure that Huli Chenying was Xuanyuan Yue’s contract beast.

Zhang Fei’s reaction told Ye Mingran and the others that he knew something about Huli Chenying, but they restrained themselves from asking him.

”Oh.” Huli Chenying remembered Xuanyuan Yue’s story about her meeting with Feng Yao at that time, but her master didn’t say anything about Huo Ling. ”My master was in this dungeon, but she was too shy to meet this young man because he was too handsome.”

Zhang Fei and Huo Ling spread their senses to locate Xuanyuan Yue within the dungeon, but they couldn’t sense her aura or presence at all, as if she didn’t exist.

”Hehe,” Huli Chenying stood in front of Zhang Fei, pressing her index finger against his chest. ”Are you eager to meet my master, handsome? Actually, she wants to meet you, but she’s overthinking about something, so she doesn’t want to appear in front of you. By the way, you don’t need to look for her because you won’t be able to find her with your current cultivation, and your efforts will just be in vain.”

Zhang Fei was shocked to hear that. ”Does that mean her cultivation is higher than Huo Ling’s?”

”Yes,” Huli Chenying’s answer shocked not only Zhang Fei and Huo Ling but also everyone who heard her words. ”I can’t say too much about my master, but I can say for sure that not a single living creature in the universe can defeat her, including Feng Yao and the two primordial beasts.”

”That’s impossible, right?” Qi Qingxiu blurted out. ”Sister Yao... She—”

Huli Chenying looked at Qi Qingxiu. ”Little Demon God, nothing is impossible in the world of cultivation. Feng Yao has long been aware that she cannot defeat my master, even if she uses her past strength.”

Qi Qingxiu, Ye Mingran, Dong Xuanyin, and Nalan Shizhe looked at Huli Chenying like they were looking at a monster. If her master was much stronger than Feng Yao, they were sure that she was as strong as her master.

Mo Cangyue seemed confused by their situation and Huli Chenying’s identity. She looked at Yuan Xiajie, who responded with a shake of her head.

’Who exactly is this woman? Her aura is so calm, but I feel a powerful pressure radiating from her, and it’s far stronger than Feng Yao’s.’ Yuan Xiajie inwardly wondered.

Huli Chenying looked at Zhang Fei again. ”So, can you give this demon’s corpse to me?”

”Take it.” Zhang Fei nodded.

”Thank you.” Huli Chenying transformed into her fox form, opened her mouth wide, and swallowed Yan Tianling’s corpse directly. Her actions left Zhang Fei and the others speechless.

Yan Washing clenched his fists tightly, but he didn’t dare utter a single word, and he could only silently mourn his son’s death.

Zhang Fei looked at Huli Chenying’s fox form with admiration, but he couldn’t recognize her fox race because she came from another universe, and the system couldn’t check her status.

Huli Chenying returned to her human form, pulled Zhang Fei into her embrace, and kissed him.

’Fuck! She took advantage of me!’ Zhang Fei wanted to return Huli Chenying’s kiss, but his body couldn’t move at all even though their soul link was still active, so he could only passively accept as she kissed him.

Qi Qingxiu, Ye Mingran, and Dong Xuanyin smiled in amusement at the sight. Usually, Zhang Fei was in control when they kissed him, but this time, he couldn’t do anything to Huli Chenying.

Zhang Fei froze as Huli Chenying absorbed his beast essence, but his worries disappeared as she only absorbed it for a few seconds. She stopped their kissing and licked her lips. ”Honestly, I want to completely absorb your beast essence, but I can’t do that because my master would be furious and would lock me up.”

”Can you take me to see her?”

”No,” Zhang Fei was disappointed by Huli Chenying’s refusal because he wanted to meet Xuanyuan Yue in person. ”If you want to see my master, you must evolve into a ten-tailed fox first, and you can ask Feng Yao to take you to the Primordial Realm at that time.”

Unlike Zhang Fei and the others, all the cultivators in the Ancient Realm never knew about the existence of the Primordial Realm, so Mo Cangyue and Yan Washeng looked shocked after Huli Chenying mentioned that realm.

”So, your master stayed and watched over me from the Primordial Realm?”

”My master came here using her spaceship artifact, and she doesn’t want to be seen by anyone, so the most suitable place is the Primordial Realm. Although some primordials are still alive, they have long since entered the deep slumber, so they are unaware of her presence in their realm.” Huli Chenying brought her face next to Zhang Fei’s ear. ’Actually, my master has already fallen in love with you after she followed your journey as a cultivator since the first day, but she didn’t dare to accept her feelings. Therefore, you must think of a way to win her over, and we can have fun together in the future.’

”Cough... Cough...” Zhang Fei coughed hard, looking at Huli Chenying strangely.

”Haha,” Huli Chenying laughed. ”I didn’t lie to you, okay? You—”

”Sister Chenying! I will lock you up for a thousand years if you continue talking nonsense.” Xuanyuan Yue’s voice echoed throughout the first floor of the dungeon, and everyone present tried to find her hiding place to no avail. ”Zhang Fei! If you wish to meet me, I will be waiting for you at that place.”

”See? What did I say? My master—”

”Sister Chenying! Return to my side now!” Huli Chenying shuddered at the anger in Xuanyuan Yue’s voice, and she immediately disappeared from everyone’s sight. ”Work hard and let’s meet in the future, Zhang Fei.”

”Don’t worry! I’ll definitely meet you there.” Xuanyuan Yue didn’t respond to Zhang Fei, disappointing him.

Huo Ling immediately spoke to him. ”Since she can come here, her strength is immeasurable. Thus, you don’t need to feel disappointed, husband. One day, you will surpass my master, and you will reach her level, so you can meet her at that time.”

”Yeah,” Zhang Fei looked at Yan Washeng. ”Honestly, I want to kill you, but your death will only bring new problems for me. Although I won’t kill you, I won’t let you go free without control.”

Yan Washeng raised his head. ”Do as you wish.”

After implanting his demon slave mark and cloning Yan Washing’s soul, Zhang Fei ordered him to leave the dungeon. He also gave him several orders regarding the other demon gods.
