Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 445: With Shang Yaolin

*Bam... Bam... Bam...*

Shang Xiaoyin frowned and turned back as the women behind her fell to the floor one by one, and she could see that they had immediately fallen into a deep sleep, evidenced by their snoring.

The tip of a needle suddenly pressed against Shang Xiaoyinʼs neck, so she immediately glanced behind and saw Shang Xiaojuan, who was coldly glaring at her. ʼShit! I overlooked the fact that this man is deeply infatuated with Shang Yaolin, and he is prepared to go to any lengths for her.ʼ

”Itʼs true that I canʼt kill you because youʼre our patriarchʼs niece, but that doesnʼt mean I canʼt do other things to you.” Shang Xiaojuan spoke slowly as he stabbed the needle slightly into Shang Xiaoyinʼs neck. ”However, you should still remember my abilities, right?

Even a soul cultivator like your brother cannot withstand them, let alone a mere body cultivator with a weak soul strength like you, and I dare guarantee you wonʼt like the effects.”

”Heh!” Shang Xiaoyin snorted softly and challenged Shang Xiaojuan instead. ”Come on! I dare you to do it! Use your abilities on me now! I may not be able to withstand them now, but I can make you suffer after I get free from the effects, and your family will also follow you in suffering.”

Shang Xiaojuan frowned after hearing that, and he seemed hesitant to use his abilities against Shang Xiaoyin. However, Shang Yaolin immediately shouted at her cousin. ”Stop it! I donʼt need your protection, and I can deal with that brute woman by myself, so you better leave us now.”

”You should listen to her, or-” Shang Xiaoyin had not finished her words when Shang Xiaojuan stabbed her neck with his needle, which caused her eyes to quickly blur. She immediately fell to the floor before letting out a soft snore.

Shang Yaolin sighed heavily after she saw that, especially since Shang Xiaojuan always acted as he pleased, and he would also do things that contradicted other peopleʼs prohibitions.

Shang Xiaojuan immediately turned to his cousin, but Shang Yaolin responded by looking away. ”As I have always told you, I will never let anyone hurt you, and I will kill those who dare to do so. Unfortunately, I cannot kill this brute woman, especially since it will only make my family suffer, or else I would have killed her long ago.”

Shang Yaolin tightly closed her mouth, not wanting to respond to Shang Xiaojuanʼs words, as she knew that everything she said would be insignificant and he would simply disregard it.

Shang Xiaojuan smiled faintly and walked out of the residence again. ”Soon, you will definitely come and beg me, Yaolin.”

Shang Yaolin let out a heavy sigh after Shang Xiaojuan disappeared from her sight, and she immediately brought the women to their respective rooms before continuing her punishment of cleaning the entire area of the residence.

By the time Shang Yaolin finished her task, the sun had already set in the Wasteland Realm. The male members of their clan who had previously worked in the crystal mines had also returned to the residence, including Shang Guangming. However, they were all confused because they could not find the female members in the main hall, especially since they usually gathered there at night.

Shang Guangming immediately approached his sister before asking her through voice transmission, to which Shang Yaolin replied with a nod and a heavy sigh. ʼYou better be careful of our cousin, Yaolin. Although he wonʼt hurt us, Iʼm sure that heʼll do something to you sooner or later, and heʼll definitely force you to hand yourself over to him.

Besides, donʼt let him know of Longʼerʼs presence, and itʼd be better if you stayed with me in my room, or heʼll kill him if he stays by your side.ʼ

ʼItʼs too late, brother! Our cousin has already forced me to swallow a pill, but I still donʼt know its effects.ʼ Shang Guangming frowned after Shang Yaolin said it. ʼAs for Longʼer, he seems to have the ability to hide his presence, and our cousin still hasnʼt noticed that heʼs in my room, so I think itʼs okay if he stays with me.

Moreover, Iʼm not comfortable here, so I need a friend to accompany me.ʼ

ʼAll right, Longʼer can stay with you, but you must always be careful and hide him immediately if our cousin notices his presence. Anyway, Hong Xinxin is also in this realm, and she will definitely come to me soon, so I have to hide from her.ʼ Shang Yaolin wanted to ask her brother, but Shang Guangming had already run away like a frightened rabbit.

Shang Yaolin could only shake her head at her brotherʼs behavior, but she then turned her gaze to the few men, led by Shang Wuzi, who were staring at her from a distance. She glared at them fiercely for a moment before turning to go to her room to find Zhang Xiaolong [3].

They whispered something as they kept looking at Shang Yaolinʼs back, and their expressions clearly showed that they did not have good intentions towards her. Shang Wuzi then led his men to another place while paying attention to their surroundings, but they were relieved to not find Shang Xiaojuan, especially since he had returned to the fortress.

”Hmm?” Shang Yaolin raised her eyebrows as she arrived at her room, especially since Zhang Xiaolong [3] was fully engrossed in his cultivation, and she could sense that his speed in absorbing Qi from the air was truly astonishing.

Shang Yaolin immediately sat in front of Zhang Xiaolong [3] with her knees supporting her chin, and she looked amazed with the seriousness on her face. ʼHow can he be this serious? Heʼs only ten years old, and children of his age are usually more focused on having fun, yet he doesnʼt think about having fun and is fully focused on his cultivation instead.

Moreover, he was clearly right in front of me, but I could only vaguely feel his presence. Additionally, his speed in absorbing Qi far surpasses that of teenage cultivators, and not many of them could compete with him in doing so.

His talent in ordinary cultivation can make people jealous, and he is also a dual cultivator, so it was no surprise that his cultivation could reach the 6-Star Soul Realm even though he was still this small.ʼ

Unfortunately, Shang Yaolin still didnʼt realize that Zhang Xiaolong [3] was not a 10-year-old little boy, and she would be shocked if he found out that he was a fully grown-up man who had many wives and partners.

A while later, Shang Yaolin could feel that the movement of Qi inside Zhang Xiaolong [3]ʼs body was starting to slow down before stopping completely, and he immediately smiled at her as soon as he opened his eyes. ”Why are you looking at me like that, Big Sis?”

”Nothing.” Shang Yaolin replied with a shake of her head. ”Iʼm just amazed that a little kid like you can be so serious about cultivating, and youʼre so engrossed that you donʼt notice my presence. Even I canʼt match your level of seriousness in cultivating, as the presence of others often distracts me.

”Hehe.” Zhang Xiaolong [3] laughed in response. ”I donʼt know how I do it myself, Big Sis. Each time I close my eyes to cultivate, I become unable to sense the presence of people, so I can fully concentrate on my cultivation.”

”Thatʼs weird, you know?” Shang Yaolin said this as she pulled Zhang Xiaolong [3] into her lap. ”Anyway, you canʼt keep going like that, especially if youʼre cultivating in a public place, and you have to start sharpening all your senses to pay attention to your surroundings.

Otherwise, you wonʼt be able to notice the presence of people with evil intentions, and you might die in the hands of that person if that happens. Do you understand what I mean?”

Zhang Xiaolong [3] naturally wasnʼt worried about that, especially since he had Mei, who was constantly helping him to keep an eye on the surrounding area, and she would immediately inform him if there were any bad guys approaching him. Despite that, he still nodded to Shang Yaolin. ”Yeah, I understand what you mean, Big Sis.

I will try to sharpen all my senses, so I can still be aware of my surroundings while Iʼm immersed in my cultivation.”

”Thatʼs good.” Shang Yaolin then carried Zhang Xiaolong [3] down from bed, and she immediately covered him with an artifact, surprising him. ”This way, people outside wonʼt be able to see you, and Iʼll take you to the bathhouse to clean ourselves.”

ʼMei, what grade is this artifact? This can even make me invisible to others, and it also seems to eliminate my presence completely.ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] posed this question as he observed the Shang Clan members passing by.

[Master, the Shang Clan seems to be very famous and wealthy, especially since it is a divine-grade concealing artifact.]

ʼA divine-grade artifact?ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] was truly shocked by that, especially since he had only ever seen a heaven-grade artifact, and Shang Yaolinʼs artifact was two grades above that.ʼ

[Hehe! Are you thinking of snatching it from this woman, master? If youʼre really thinking of that, then you should forget about your idea, especially since you wonʼt be able to do it unless you kill her, which is impossible for the current you.]

Zhang Xiaolong [3] smiled wryly at that, especially since he had thought about it. ʼThe system has many divine-grade artifacts, right? Moreover, they are all much better than hers, so I donʼt need to snatch it, and I just need to collect more jewels to buy them from the system.ʼ

[Well, thatʼs true. However, you need tons of golden jewels to buy divine-grade artifacts and above, so you wonʼt be able to buy them for now.]

A while later, they arrived at the clanʼs bathhouse, where Shang Yaolin immediately stripped off all her clothes before assisting Zhang Xiaolong [3] in undressing. She then carried him into the misty hot spring pool, asking via voice transmission to ensure that no one would notice his presence. ʼCan you feel it?ʼ

ʼYes, Big Sis. I often soaked in hot spring pools in the past, but this one was completely different, and I could feel my fatigue disappearing quickly.ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] then dipped his body into the water, leaving only his head on the surface.

Shang Yaolin nodded slightly as she started to clean up Zhang Xiaolong [3], and she told him about something else. ʼIf you look at the bottom of the pool, you can find lots of colorful rocks in it, and those rocks come from the top of the mountain, which has an effect like what you have experienced yourself.ʼ

After hearing that, Zhang Xiaolong [3] dipped his head into the water and discovered numerous colorful rocks at the bottom. He immediately thought of bringing some of these rocks into his training space, where his wives and partners could easily relieve their fatigue.

However, he didnʼt intend to do it directly and waited for a good opportunity to do it, so he pulled his head out and leaned against Shang Yaolinʼs chest. ʼAre there so many colorful rocks on the mountain, Big Sis?ʼ

ʼYes.ʼ Shang Yaolin nodded slightly. ʼHowever, we canʼt take them directly, especially since these rocks are firmly attached to the walls up there, and we need a special method to extract them.ʼ

ʼDoes that mean all the clans in the upper realms deliberately took over this realm for these colorful rocks and those crystals?ʼ

Shang Yaolin did not hide it from Zhang Xiaolong [3]. ʼActually, these realms have many valuable resources; those rocks and crystals are just two of them, and there are many other items in other areas. Anyway, the temperature in this realm will drop soon, which will make the air here very cold, so you should prepare yourself, and you can hug me if you feel too cold later.ʼ

ʼYeah.ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] then asked Shang Yaolin. ʼWhere is Big Brother? Why didnʼt I see him earlier?ʼ

ʼHahaha.ʼ Shang Yaolin laughed softly at that. ʼBig Brother is hiding because a woman who has been crazy about him for a long time came to this realm specifically to look for him, but he never liked her.ʼ

ʼWhat is that womanʼs name? Why isnʼt Big Brother interested in her?ʼ

ʼHer name is Hong Xinxin, and she is our motherʼs age, so my brother wouldnʼt be interested in her.ʼ Zhang Xiaolong [3] was slightly surprised to hear Shang Yaolinʼs answer. ʼEven though Aunt Xinxin is old, she has never been married, so she is still a virgin until now. Moreover, she is Grandpa Hongʼs favorite daughter, and her status in the Hong Clan is unsurpassable.

Thatʼs why many men are attracted to her, and they compete to win her heart, yet she never spares a glance at them. Instead, she fell for my brother, which confused many people, especially since he couldnʼt compare to those men.ʼ

[Are you thinking of approaching Hong Xinxin, master? If you can snatch her from Shang Guangmng, then you can gain a powerful ally in the upper realms.]

Zhang Xiaolong [3] felt dizzy listening to Mei, especially since she always encouraged him to continue increasing the number of his women. Despite this, he did not reject her idea, but he had not thought that far ahead, especially since he was not ready to go to the upper realms. ʼSigh! I donʼt know about Hong Xinxin, so Iʼll think about it later when I meet her.

If she is indeed an attractive woman, I might consider stealing her from Shang Guangming, particularly since he harbors no feelings for her.ʼ

After that, Shang Yaolin shared additional information with Zhang Xiaolong [3] about other clans from the upper realms that also resided in the Wasteland Realm, and she advised him to exercise caution around certain members of those clans.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] himself repeatedly asked Shang Yaolin, especially about those valuable resources outside the crystal and colorful rocks, to which she answered everything.

Meanwhile, Shang Guangming hid in his room using an artifact that was almost identical to Shang Yaolinʼs, and his eyes kept watching the door of his room. Even his body was trembling continuously, especially since he was really afraid that Hong Xinxin would come to him.

However, a gentle hand rubbed his back and abruptly pulled the artifact covering his body away, causing him to freeze in place. ”Did you believe you could hide from me, Little Guangming? I already knew about your arrival today, but I heard that you were working in the crystal mine, so I deliberately waited for you in this room since earlier.”

Shang Guangming immediately jumped away from the woman, who was none other than Hong Xinxin. His eyes immediately widened as soon as she took off her artifact, especially since she was only wearing a thin nightgown, highlighting her curvy body and massive breasts, making him gulp hard at the sight. ”Aunt... Aunt Xinxin... You better stop chasing me, or I will die in the hands of your admirers.”

”Hehe.” Hong Xinxin laughed and moved in front of Shang Guangmin in an instant; she then grabbed both of his hands and held them above his head. ”Why should you be afraid of them? Do you still not believe that I can protect you from them? If they dare to attack you, then Iʼll ask my father to cut ties with their clans, and theyʼll pay for the consequences.”
