After much thought, Mu Feng realized that he did not possess anything that the Flood Dragon Ancestor needed.
The Flood Dragon Ancestor's cultivation level is too high; he is one of the top cultivators on the True Treasure Continent.
It seems that all he can give is his own feelings and body.
Only by using oneself as bait can one lure the Dragon Ancestor into taking the bait and boarding his pirate ship.
Unfortunately, the Dragon Ancestor accepted his feelings but rejected him because he was so weak.
With a sigh, Mu Feng waved to Shi Fang and Li Wantian.
He did not stay in the Peach Blossom Spring for long.
After spending time with the two, he entered the spirit pool to cleanse himself of his aura, and then returned to the cave dressed.
As dusk approached outside the cave, a red sunset climbed into the sky.
Mu Feng sat cross-legged in the cave, intending to wait for the return of the Flood Dragon Ancestor.
But a day and a night passed, and Mu Feng still hadn't seen a single person.
He was a little worried. Had the Flood Dragon Ancestor run away?
Or did they simply abandon him because they thought his cultivation level was too low?
For the first time, Mu Feng felt a sense of worry.
He frowned, thinking to himself:
"High-level cultivators are too difficult to manage; they're impossible to catch! Next time, we'll have to learn our lesson and not target those with such high cultivation levels."
When the third day arrived, Mu Feng was restless and paced anxiously back and forth.
This is the first time the Flood Dragon Ancestor has gone missing since he started spending time with him.
He fell into self-doubt, and began to reflect on whether he had really angered the Dragon Ancestor.
Fortunately, the Dragon Ancestor returned on the third day at noon, and even brought him a gift.
The Flood Dragon Ancestor teleported back to the cave, a smile on his face.
Mu Feng pounced on him as quickly as a swallow returning to its nest.
Unfortunately, the Dragon Ancestor stretched out a finger and quickly pressed it against his forehead.
The Dragon Ancestor frowned and scolded:
"Sit properly, stand properly. Stand up straight and stop leaning on me!"
Mu Feng glanced at the Flood Dragon Ancestor with a wronged expression, but he really didn't dare to take another step forward. He stood there, tears streaming down his face.
"Why did it take you so long to come back? I've been waiting for you for three days! Please don't abandon me. I promise I'll work hard in my cultivation and listen to you from now on!"
When the Flood Dragon Ancestor saw Mu Feng's tears, he paused, feeling a pang of pity.
But the next second, Mu Feng's words completely dispelled his sympathy.
Mu Feng wiped away his tears and sobbed:
"If you don't sign a Daoist partner contract with me, I won't even know where to look for you. It's all your fault!"
Upon hearing this, the Flood Dragon Ancestor quickly reached into his storage bag and pulled out a contract he had prepared for a long time. He raised his chin and said:
"Alright, let's sign the Daoist Couple Contract. I've already prepared the contract marriage certificate for our destined Daoist Couple!"
The Dragon Ancestor's eyes were deep. This Heavenly Couple Contract had extremely harsh conditions for signing. The first condition was that the signatories could not have any other partners besides each other.
Mu Feng is now with Li Wantian and Shi Fang, and the two of them are even hiding in Mu Feng's Peach Blossom Paradise.
The Dragon Ancestor was fully aware of this matter, so how could he be swayed by his tears?
Sure enough, Mu Feng was stunned when he saw the marriage certificate of the destined couple.
After a long silence, Mu Feng stammered:
"My cultivation level is too low now, my lifespan is not long, and my talent is meager, so my strength cannot improve. I'm afraid I won't be able to stay with the Ancestor for long."
"I'll wait until I reach the Void Refinement stage before signing the Heavenly Fate Daoist Couple Contract with the Ancestor."
The Dragon Ancestor put away the marriage certificate and said calmly:
"That's what I wanted to say too. I'll only touch you when you sign the Heavenly Couple Contract with me. I'm not a demon who's that casual."
At this moment, the two looked at each other, not like lovers, but like strangers.
Mu Feng was startled and lowered his head, remaining silent.
After a moment of silence, the Flood Dragon Ancestor chuckled softly:
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. You focus on your cultivation, and I won't say anything more."
I visited Spicy Palace three days ago. The owner of Spicy Palace had just returned and treated us old folks to a meal.
He knew I had someone I liked, and he even sent you a gift.
Mu Feng raised his head, tears glistening in his eyes. What had he done to deserve this? It was always his ancestor who had to back down and give him a way out.
He choked up as he asked:
"What gift was it? Did you mention me to them?"
The Dragon Ancestor laughed:
"Yes, I've told everyone about us, and now everyone knows about you."
However, the owner of Spicy Palace didn't have a good impression of you, after all, you were with Jikong from Gozenji Temple, planning to rob Spicy Palace. So I didn't take you with me.”
As the old Flood Dragon Ancestor spoke, he took out a bottle of pills and handed it to him.
"Look, this is a gift from the owner of Spicy Palace. He knows you are at the Golden Core stage, so he specially gave you a bottle of third-grade pills."
The owner of Spicy Palace also said that if I want to sell anything in the future, I'll get an insider price; they'll buy it from me at double the price.
Mu Feng took the pill and was stunned. Another third-tier pill?
Why are they all so stingy?
However, after carefully examining the batch of pills, Mu Feng felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
This bottle of pills only retains a trace of its essence, which is the Flood Dragon Ancestor.
It seems the owner of Spicy Palace didn't have a good impression of him; he was particularly stingy and didn't give him any gifts at all.
This gift was personally prepared by the Dragon Ancestor to appease him!
Mu Feng carefully put away the medicine bottle and whispered:
"Thank you, Jiaolong. I will get along well with your friends."
The Dragon Ancestor nodded and waved his hand, saying:
"Alright, if there's nothing else, don't waste time. Go cultivate, I'm going to cultivate too. Let's improve together."
Mu Feng nodded obediently, then left the cave and ran to a small house a kilometer away.
The Flood Dragon Ancestor said that he was used to being alone and when he didn't want to cultivate, someone would disturb him within a radius of a thousand meters.
Therefore, Mu Feng can only live alone a kilometer away.
After seeing Mu Feng off, the Flood Dragon Ancestor breathed a sigh of relief.
He leaned against the cave wall and slowly lay down.
The owners of Spicy Palace, Song Chen and Zhao Ziyi, did indeed give him a gift, saying it was a reward for his hard work.
He was also given a gift, which he said was for his partner.
The Dragon Ancestor immediately presented the gift to another ancestor at the dinner table, the Snake Ancestor, a bamboo viper.
The bamboo viper is a handsome but unusually aloof young man.
Upon seeing the gifts from the Flood Dragon Ancestor, he rolled his eyes and accepted them all without hesitation.
People praise someone for their abundant energy, saying they are "as vigorous as a dragon and as fierce as a tiger," but no one investigates the reason behind it.
The reason is actually quite simple: the dragon has two male offspring, while the tiger has three eggs.
This more luxurious configuration than that of ordinary people makes Longhu highly admired by the world.
Therefore, when the dragon encounters the little bamboo viper, it feels full of guilt.
He felt sorry for Xiao Zhuyeqing; how could she have encountered such a beast!
However, the fact that Xiao Zhuyeqing accepted his gift proves that there is still potential for their relationship to improve.
The Flood Dragon Ancestor chuckled for a while, then fell into a deep sleep and began his cultivation.
