The two clinked glasses and drank quite a bit of alcohol without realizing it.
After a few rounds of drinks, Chen Xianmiao was already somewhat drunk.
She suddenly stood up, staggered to Xiao Feng's side, and hugged him tightly.
"Xiao Feng, please don't go!" Chen Xianmiao said, her eyes blurry with drunkenness, "I...I like you."
Xiao Feng was stunned; he could feel Chen Xianmiao's sincere emotions.
Taking the opportunity, Chen Xianmiao gently kissed Xiao Feng on the cheek, then leaned on his shoulder and murmured, "Tonight...please stay, okay?"
Xiao Feng took a deep breath, gently patted Chen Xianmiao's back, and said nothing.
As night deepened, the candlelight inside the room flickered, illuminating the tangled figures of Xiao Feng and Chen Xianmiao.
Xiao Feng gently pushed Chen Xianmiao away.
"I...I really should go," Xiao Feng said with difficulty, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
"I know you're very sad right now. Is there anything I can help you fulfill?"
Chen Xianmiao looked at Xiao Feng through teary eyes and choked out, "I want to go home... but I have nowhere to go. Xiao Feng, could you... kill me?"
Xiao Feng was shocked: "Xianmiao, how could you have such a thought?"
“My family was wiped out, and I am all alone. There is no meaning to living anymore.”
Chen Xianmiao said desperately, "Please, give me a release."
Xiao Feng felt as if his heart was being torn apart; he never expected that Chen Xianmiao would suffer such a tragic turn of events.
He took a deep breath and took out a crystal-clear, light blue jade pendant from his storage ring.
"Xianmiao, this is 'Azure Water Frost,' a water-type spiritual treasure that I obtained by chance. It can not only help you cultivate, but also protect your safety. I'm leaving it to you, hoping you can live a good life." Xiao Feng solemnly handed the jade pendant to Chen Xianmiao.
Chen Xianmiao stared blankly at the jade pendant in her hand, and suddenly tears streamed down her face.
Xiao Feng turned and left.
As Chen Xianmiao watched Xiao Feng's departing figure, she secretly vowed to cultivate the "Heart-Cleansing Technique" and no longer be troubled by romantic feelings.
After leaving Chen Xianmiao, Xiao Feng decided to go to the Blood Fiend Sect to check on Bai Junhao's situation.
However, when Xiao Feng arrived at the Blood Fiend Sect, he found that it had already been occupied by the people of the Three Immortal Islands.
Several cultivators blocked his way, led by Song Sinian and his disciple Ouyang Mingyue.
"Halt!" Song Sinian shouted sternly, "Who are you? Why are you trespassing on the Blood Fiend Sect?"
Just as Xiao Feng was about to speak, Ouyang Mingyue recognized him.
Her eyes blazed with fury as she screamed, "It was you! It was you!"
Before Xiao Feng could explain, Ouyang Mingyue had already drawn a gleaming dagger and stabbed it fiercely at Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng was unable to dodge in time, and a deep, bone-revealing wound was slashed across his left arm.
"Stop!" Song Sinian hurriedly shouted, but Ouyang Mingyue had already gone mad, breaking free of her master's restraints and lunging at Xiao Feng again.
At this critical moment, a cry of surprise suddenly rang out: "Heavens! This...this is Heaven-Rank cultivation?!"
Ao Yun stared wide-eyed at Xiao Feng in disbelief.
He sensed the vast, ocean-like spiritual energy emanating from Xiao Feng, an aura clearly possessed only by a Heavenly Realm cultivator!
Ouyang Mingyue's movements also came to an abrupt halt. She looked at Xiao Feng in disbelief, her eyes filled with shock and confusion.
Xiao Feng took a deep breath and said calmly, "I'm willing to avenge Miss Ouyang. If this makes you feel better, then go ahead."
Seeing this, Song Sinian quickly stepped forward to dissuade him: "Wait! Young friend, could you please explain what exactly happened?"
Xiao Feng nodded: "Alright, let's find a quiet place to talk in detail."
After everyone returned to the main hall, Xiao Feng sat down and said bluntly, "Actually, I am not from this world. I come from the lower realm and was brought to the upper realm by a powerful figure."
"What? The lower realm?" Ao Yun exclaimed in surprise, "No wonder your cultivation speed is so astonishing!"
After hearing Xiao Feng's explanation, everyone present fell into deep thought.
However, everyone was very curious about Xiao Feng's current cultivation level and what kind of Gu he had used on Bai Junhao.
Xiao Feng took out an exquisite jade bottle from his storage ring: "This is the number one Gu in the world, it..."
Before he finished speaking, a strange buzzing sound suddenly came from the jade bottle.
Upon closer inspection, everyone saw a small, golden insect wriggling inside the bottle, emitting a faint glow.
"This...this is the legendary number one Gu in the world?"
Ao Yun's eyes widened, his voice trembling slightly: "I never thought it actually existed!"
Ouyang Mingyue also stared in shock at the small golden insect, her expression becoming complicated.
Just then, Ao Yun seemed to realize something and suddenly looked up at Xiao Feng: "Wait, you said you've only been in the Upper Realm for less than a year? But you're already at the Nascent Soul Realm? This... how is this possible!"
Xiao Feng smiled calmly: "It was just a coincidence."
Ao Yun opened his mouth, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind: What exactly did this young man from the lower realm experience? Just how terrifying is his talent? If he continues to cultivate, what heights will he reach in the future?
Song Sinian suddenly broke the silence: "Brother Xiao, I'm very curious about what your real face looks like. Could you let us see it for a moment?"
Xiao Feng smiled slightly and nodded: "Since Brother Song wants to see, then I will respectfully comply."
As he spoke, he slowly raised his hand and gently brushed his face.
As a faint light flashed, Xiao Feng's appearance gradually became visible.
He had exquisite features, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and slightly upturned lips. His handsome face exuded a touch of heroic spirit.
"Hiss—" A collective gasp of astonishment echoed through the hall.
Ouyang Mingyue couldn't help but glance at Xiao Feng a few more times, a strange light flashing in her eyes.
Ao Yun couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "I never expected Brother Xiao to be not only incredibly strong, but also so handsome!"
Xiao Feng smiled calmly, but his gaze suddenly turned serious: "Everyone, I have a question for you. How are Bai Junhao and his son now? Are they... still alive?"
Upon hearing this, Ao Yun's face revealed a complex expression: "Thanks to the help of Medicine King Valley, their lives have been temporarily saved. However..."
He paused for a moment, then said, "I'm afraid we can only hold on for another three to five days."
Xiao Feng frowned slightly, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.
Just then, Ao Guang seemed to realize something, and his gaze towards Xiao Feng became complicated: "Xiao Feng, it seems your strength far exceeds my expectations. In that case, why don't you give us an explanation yourself? What exactly happened that day?"
Xiao Feng took a deep breath, his expression turning serious: "In fact, what happened that day wasn't as simple as it seemed. I can produce the pill from that day as proof; Ouyang Mingyue only..."
He paused, as if considering his words: "That's why they did those things to me."
