When the sun shines softly through the smart skylight onto the enormous bed covered with "velvet" animal fur the next day.
Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes. Beside him lay seven curvaceous bodies. The madness and eroticism of last night still lingered in the air, mixing with the specially made calming incense to create a chaotic atmosphere.
Without disturbing anyone, with just a thought, a bathrobe woven from "cloud silk" automatically draped over his body.
He walked barefoot across the soft carpet that his toes could sink into, and came to the terrace of his bedchamber.
Beyond the terrace lies a panoramic view of the entire "Chengtian Capital".
This magnificent capital city, which he created single-handedly and is full of futuristic and sci-fi elements, is now bathed in the morning light.
"His Majesty."
Su Wanqing's voice rang out behind him like the most accurate alarm clock.
She had woken up sometime earlier and was dressed neatly. Her well-fitting court uniform perfectly accentuated her mature and intellectual charm.
In her hands, she held a holographic screen, which was her terminal for handling the kingdom's affairs and also the nerve center connecting Lin Feng with this vast empire.
"Did you rest well last night?" Lin Feng asked casually without turning around.
"Thanks to Your Majesty, I am better than ever before." A faint blush flashed across Su Wanqing's face, but she quickly regained her usual competence and poise.
She knew that in front of His Majesty, any woman's shyness could only be an embellishment, not the main theme.
"Get to the point."
"Yes." Su Wanqing immediately got to work. "There are three things that require your personal attention."
She turned the screen towards Lin Feng, and the first document immediately appeared on it.
"First, regarding the 'Warm Snow Palace' you ordered to be built. The engineering department has assembled 30,000 engineering robots and five top design teams, and expects to complete the main structure within 72 hours. Here are the preliminary renderings for your review."
On the screen, a magnificent crystal palace nestled in a hot spring valley appears before your eyes.
Lin Feng glanced at it and then lost interest.
"Approved. Tell them I only care about the results."
"yes."
“The second thing,” Su Wanqing switched the screen, “is about the survivors we brought from Earth. After years of screening, education, and information entry, the identities and backgrounds of the last batch of survivors have all been verified. This is the complete list database.”
The screen displayed a dense array of names and information.
Lin Feng's gaze remained indifferent.
"Important."
"yes."
Su Wanqing immediately understood Lin Feng's meaning. Her slender fingers quickly swept across the screen, bringing up several specially marked names.
"In the last batch of identity verifications, we found some people... who may have some connection to your past on Earth."
"oh?"
A slight ripple finally appeared in Lin Feng's eyes.
He slowly turned around and took the light screen from Su Wanqing's hand.
On the screen are detailed profiles of three people: photos, names, and their backgrounds on Earth.
The first person is named Wang Zhe. In the photo, he has slicked-back hair, wears designer clothes, and has an arrogant air typical of rich kids.
According to available information, he is the son of the chairman of a listed group under Blue Star Era, a typical second-generation rich kid.
A cold smile curled at the corners of Lin Feng's lips. He remembered that name.
Back then, when he first entered the workforce, he interned at Wang Zhe's father's company.
This is Wang Zhe. He took a fancy to a female colleague of Lin Feng who had feelings for him. He made things difficult for her in every way and used all sorts of means. In the end, he not only stole the girl away, but also caused Lin Feng to be fired from the company and unable to gain a foothold in the industry.
Lin Feng still clearly remembers Wang Zhe looking down at him and saying, "Kid, you want to fight me? What do you have to fight with? I can bury you in money!"
The second person was named Li Hu. In the photo, he was burly, with a fierce look and menacing tattoos on his arms.
According to the records, he was Lin Feng's classmate in high school and was a school bully.
Lin Feng's eyes grew even deeper.
He recalled those dark days of high school. It was this Li Hu who, along with a group of people, would ambush him in an alley almost every day after school, rob him of his meager living expenses, and beat him, simply because he was a better student and more handsome than them.
He reported it to the school, but because Li Hu's family had some influence, the matter was ultimately dropped.
He remembered that Li Hu's most frequent saying was: "So what if I hit you? I'm doing you a favor by hitting you!"
The third person was named Liu Cuifen. She was a middle-aged woman in her forties. In the photo, she had curly hair, a mean look in her eyes, and a downturned mouth, giving her a sharp and snobbish appearance.
According to the records, she was the landlord of the apartment Lin Feng rented when he had just graduated from university.
Lin Feng's memory returned to that cramped, dark basement. It was this woman who, because Lin Feng was from out of town, tampered with the contract, creating various pretexts to charge all sorts of extra fees.
Finally, during Lin Feng's most difficult time, simply because he was two days late paying rent, they conspired with their relatives to throw all his luggage onto the street, pointing their fingers at him and cursing, "You out-of-town dog! If you don't have money, go back to your hometown! You're not welcome here!"
Memories flashed through Lin Feng's mind.
But there was no anger or resentment in his heart.
Yes, but it's a kind of indifferent interest, like a god looking down on ants.
It's like a swordsman who's already invincible suddenly seeing a few ants that once tripped him up by the roadside. He won't be angry; he'll just find it...amusing.
"Where...are they now?" Lin Feng's voice was eerily calm.
“According to the records, all three of them have been assigned to the third labor camp in the ‘Black Stone Mining Area’ to perform the lowest level of manual labor because of their poor performance during previous labor reform and their records of theft and fighting,” Su Wanqing replied respectfully.
“Blackstone Mine…” A playful smile appeared on Lin Feng’s face. “Very good.”
He returned the screen to Su Wanqing.
"Pass on my order. Have the mine supervisor clean these three men and bring them to me. I suddenly... want to see my 'old friends'."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Su Wanqing bowed and accepted the order. She could sense that although Lin Feng's tone was calm, there was a chilling aura hidden behind it that made the world tremble.
She knew that these three people were finished.
