Chapter 1065: Compensating the Gold-Eating Rat Clan
Lin Feng saw the little fellow's left-and-right looking expression and immediately shook his head helplessly.
While wiping saliva from his face, he curiously asked: "Little fellow, after absorbing that Red Lotus Karmic Fire, can you fight on your own now?"
Of course, after I swallowed that big fellow, I also fused with part of her spiritual wisdom. Now I, if I were to duel one-on-one with that stinky woman you fought before, Master, I could hang her up and beat her!
Hearing about fighting, the little guy immediately became interested, and promptly patted his little tablet with an ao ao, looking very confident.
Alright, this fire spirit is now ruined.
Seeing Xiao Ling's deadpan expression, Lin Feng helplessly raised a hand to his forehead, feeling helpless inside.
However, upon learning that this little fellow actually had the confidence to defeat the Gu Xun'er from when he dueled her, he couldn't help but observe the little fellow with interest.
And Xiao Ling, seeing her master look at her like that, first blinked in surprise.
Immediately, she hurriedly covered her little tablet and weakly said: "Master, Xiao Ling is still young, can't be lustful. If you really want, Xiao Ling can go out and catch more big women for you."
Hearing that, Lin Feng instantly got so angry he almost jumped up, he lifted the little fellow and gave him a hard spanking.
But he still couldn't resist reaching out to pinch the little fellow's cheek, and said irritably: "You little fellow, what on earth are you thinking? I'm just seeing if you're as formidable as you claim!"
While speaking, he casually set the little fellow down, then stood up, not intending to continue chatting with Xiao Ling.
After all, if they chatted a few more sentences, he feared he really couldn't help but smash the little fellow's butt to a pulp.
"Husband, is this little girl the fire spirit you mentioned?"
And the former not liking it doesn't mean that Dan Chen and Cao Ying also dislike Xiao Ling; indeed, after seeing Lin Feng successfully absorb the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, the two women quickly ran over, looking at Xiao Ling with affection.
After all, although this little fellow's personality is a bit off, his looks are still top-notch.
Her ruby-like eyes sparkled with curiosity and innocence, a head of red hair flowed down her back, she wore a similarly red dress, and complemented by that tender little face that made one want to pinch it.
Judging by appearance alone, Xiao Ling truly is a killer for all ages.
However, in Lin Feng's eyes, she's just a little girl he's raised to be twisted.
"That's right, she is, except her personality is twisted."
Hearing that, Lin Feng lifted his eyelids and weakly spread his hands.
"Wow, what a cute fire spirit, how nice—if my Imperial Spirit Flame could also grow a fire spirit, that would be great."
However, after Dan Chen and Cao Ying received confirmation from the former, they immediately ran over.
Before Xiao Ling could react, they grabbed her dog head and rubbed it wildly.
"Hehe, you guys play slowly, I'll go check on Yun'er and Xin Lan."
Seeing that several people were having fun, Lin Feng didn't bother with them, and immediately darted upward above the volcano.
"Master, control your wife!"
"No matter how much you rub, my head will get flattened!"
"My hair will be gone too!"
Seeing her master flee, Xiao Ling, who was being kneaded by the two women, hastily stretched out her short arms and let out an extremely miserable cry.
These two wicked women are truly terrifying; she wants to escape from here!
"Be good, Xiao Ling, keep playing with us for a while, then we'll let you go."
However, when Dan Chen saw her stretch out her short arms, she immediately smacked her hands back, then continued to wildly knead Xiao Ling's dog head.
"Yun'er, it seems your recent progress has been quite fast—you've already reached eight-star Dou Zun. If you keep up this pace, after a bit more training you'll reach nine-star."
On the other side, after Lin Feng had risen for a while, upon seeing Yun'er whom he hadn't seen in several months, a smile appeared on his face.
"Husband?"
Hearing these sudden words, Yun Yun immediately looked delighted toward the source of the sound.
Next, in that direction, she saw Lin Feng standing there with a smile.
After confirming the person's identity, Yun Yun quickly rose to her feet, then leapt, and her well-proportioned, full, lovely figure fell into Lin Feng's embrace.
"Husband, you've finally come out of seclusion—I was almost dying of worry!"
Yun Yun, while extending her jade hand to gently caress her man's face, murmured happily.
And Lin Feng reached out to embrace her round, soft, fragrant figure, then smiled and said: "I'm not the first time absorbing a strange fire—what's there to worry about?"
While speaking, he also gazed at her with a gentle look, this beautiful wife who could be called peerlessly gorgeous.
Hearing that, Yun Yun buried her pretty face in his chest and murmured softly: "But I am worried."
"Rest assured."
After a moment of intimacy with Yun Yun, Lin Feng immediately left again, heading upward to look for Xin Lan.
Upon discovering that she had not only become a Dou Zun, but also, within the Tianmu Shanmai's qi, that drop of Creation Saint's Bone Marrow that Lin Feng had given her long ago had in one go brought her to three-star Dou Zun.
Seeing this, Lin Feng hesitated not, lightly wiped his storage ring, and immediately took out two drops of Heavenly Snake bone marrow and blood, handing them to Xin Lan.
At the same time, he explained: "This is the blood and bone marrow of a ninth-stage Heavenly Snake, for you to increase your strength."
As soon as his words fell, he also took out a pair of extraordinarily large bone wings, and likewise moved them toward Xin Lan.
"As for these bone wings, they are the wings of a ninth-stage Heavenly Phoenix; you can take them and refine them into a flight fighting technique, so that in the future, when you encounter an opponent you can't defeat, you can also rely on it to escape."
Saying this, Lin Feng pushed all these things forward toward her.
"Mm!"
Since Xin Lan had already heard the other women mention these things, she wasn't particularly surprised, but happily received them and then stored them away one by one.
After all, Cao Ying had previously given her two drops of a Dou Sheng expert's bone marrow, and with these additions, her strength will definitely increase rapidly in the coming period.
By then, she won't fall too far behind her sisters.
And seeing that she had received the items, Lin Feng immediately then enjoyed a moment of intimacy with Xin Lan.
After that, he then returned to the magma below, rescuing Xiao Ling, who had been tormented for a long time by Dan Chen and Cao Ying.
Immediately afterward, Lin Feng also took from Cao Ying's hands that female Dou Sheng skeleton whose bone marrow had almost been completely scavenged.
After giving instructions to the several women, he then left the area beneath the volcano.
As for Cao Ying, Dan Chen, Yun Yun, and Xin Lan, the four women, they remained here to continue cultivating, leaving only when the energy concentration here no longer had an advantage.
"Bang!"
In Lin Feng's lightning-fast dash as an Eight-Shift Battle Venerable powerhouse, in less than the time to finish a cup of tea, he domineeringly shot straight up from beneath the volcano, passing through the blood pool, and finally returned to the skies outside.
"Ay, it's been two months already, Lin Feng, you've finally come out!"
When Lin Feng finally saw the light of day again after emerging from beneath the volcano, Jin Shi and Jin Gu, who had been waiting nearby for a long time, hurried over anxiously and complained. They had originally thought that Lin Feng would go in to explore and come out soon.
But they never expected that this wait would last two or three months!
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but feel a sense of doubt.
After all, what business did he have staying that long in the volcano of Tianmu Shanmai?
He couldn't possibly be cultivating, could he!
"Hehe, long time no see, you two."
Upon seeing the two, Lin Feng recalled that he had found the Crimson Lotus Flame on their territory, which had greatly boosted his strength, and he replied with a light laugh.
Hearing that, Jin Shi immediately probed: "Lin Feng, not long after you entered, the entire Tianmu Shanmai suddenly trembled for a long time. What exactly happened down there?"
"That's right, because our Gold-devouring Rat Clan is naturally very sensitive to earthquakes. At that time, our entire clan fell into chaos."
As soon as the former finished speaking, Jin Gu quickly took over the conversation, and while speaking, his small eyes involuntarily flicked toward Lin Feng.
Facing Jin Shi and Jin Gu's probing, Lin Feng gave a faint smile and then explained half-truthfully: "Down there, I also discovered a fire-attributed heavenly treasure. Over these past two months, I have been absorbing it."
"What?!"
Upon hearing Lin Feng's words, the expressions of Jin Shi and Jin Gu changed drastically in an instant.
Who knows what heavenly treasure he just took from beneath Tianmu Shanmai—will it affect the blood pool's energy tide that occurs every three years!
Moreover, the reason their strength has risen so quickly is precisely because they rely on that energy pool stretching from beneath the blood pool to above the volcano.
And the source of that energy is the sediment of that three‑year energy tide.
If that energy tide were gone, Tianmu Shanmai would be more than half ruined!
Thinking of this, Jin Shi immediately opened his mouth, wanting to ask the other party.
However, Lin Feng didn't wait for them to speak, and said again: "Of course, I'm not taking your things for nothing. Since I've taken the things inside Tianmu Shanmai, the Heaven Mountain Blood Tale will lose its effect, as will the three‑year energy tide. Therefore, I can find you another place to live."
"Of course, if you also want to live in a city, I can help you take care of the nearby Bone‑Melting Sect. Then you can take over their territory."
Having said that, Lin Feng shifted tone and continued: "If you don't want to live in a city, I can also help you look for other places."
"I am also quite familiar with the Wind Thunder Pavilion in the Northern Region; I believe with their help, your Gold‑devouring Rat Clan will have no trouble finding a place to reside."
"The Heaven Mountain Blood Tale has failed."
Upon hearing the former's words, Jin Shi and Jin Gu's hearts sank, and they opened their mouths as if wanting to say something.
But in the end, a flicker of helplessness crossed their eyes, and they still chose to close their mouths, not speaking.
After all, the other party is not only stronger in strength but also superior in power.
Moreover, that thing has already been taken; what can they do?
Could they possibly kill the opponent and seize the thing from inside his body?
They simply couldn't do something like that!
Seeing the two look like frost‑struck eggplants, Lin Feng flicked his wrist and tossed out three jade pendants of a bluish‑green hue.
At the same time, he promised: "As I said, I won't take your things for nothing. In the future, if you bring one of these jade pendants to my door, I can help you refine a medicinal pill of up to eighth‑grade, nine‑color quality, or help your Gold‑devouring Rat Clan resolve a crisis—this will serve as compensation."
"Although the Heaven Mountain Blood Tale has lost its function, exchanging it for my three promises as an eighth‑grade peak alchemist isn't a loss, is it?"
"Swish!"
As soon as the former's words fell, the expressions of Jin Shi and Jin Gu instantly shifted from bitter to extremely delighted.
Then, fumbling, they carefully caught the three jade pendants that Lin Feng had thrown.
As for the matter of the Heaven Mountain Blood Tale, they had long since tossed it to the back of their minds.
After all, compared to the three promises of eighth‑grade peak alchemists, that Heaven Mountain Blood Tale—which they could neither control nor dispel the Fire Poison from—is nothing!
Lin Feng, seeing the reaction of Jin Shi and Jin Gu, couldn't help but shake his head and smile.
Immediately afterward, he flicked out a jade slip and said: "I have matters to attend to and must leave. If you wish to find another place for your clan to reside, you can take this jade slip to the Wind Thunder Pavilion and seek the Thunder Venerable; he will help you settle it."
As his words fell, his figure flickered and then vanished from here.
"Hehe, thanks."
Seeing this, the mustache on Jin Shi's lip twitched up, and he happily took the jade slip.
This time, not only did they obtain the three promises of Lin Feng, an eighth‑grade peak alchemist, but they can also find a new suitable habitat—abandoning Tianmu Shanmai is totally worth it!
After all, the Gold‑devouring Rat Clan never really liked this scorching, violent Tianmu Shanmai; they only endured it because of the Heaven Mountain Blood Tale.
Now, this time is just the perfect opportunity to move.
