Chapter 3091: Nobles and Merchants (16)

The time Yao Feng squeezed out this time really wasn't short.

Zhao Chi spent over an hour on her, but it looked like there was still time to spare.

Still, he couldn't do too much today; what he had already done was enough.

Yao Feng had used quite a bit of Qi Yue's energy before, but that ultimately belonged to Qi Yue, not to her.

Today, she had finally increased her own energy.

That feeling...

Had already become something she could never forget.

Zhao Chi's ability could make her pleasure skyrocket. Before, using Qi Yue's energy alone had been hard for her to give up; now she had energy that belonged solely to her, and the kind that suited her best, so Yao Feng...

Had fallen completely.

She couldn't control herself.

Looking at the stunningly beautiful female commander before him, recalling her expression and reactions just now, Zhao Chi felt a touch of emotion.

It seemed they were all the same—unable to be immune to this level of pleasure.

And the concentration of pleasure he gave her was so high that it might directly raise her threshold as well.

After that...

She might not be able to leave.

Fortunately, he had the ability to keep her this happy indefinitely.

Today, Yao Feng gained 7 points of energy that belonged to her.

Too bad only Zhao Chi using the Spirit Vein could normally increase energy.

Other methods couldn't increase it; otherwise Yao Feng should have had 12 points.

But Yao Feng had genuinely felt pleasure 12 times, which wasn't bad either.

Although Yao Feng was reluctant to part and wanted nothing more than to stay with Zhao Chi forever right then and there.

She also knew the battle situation was tense now, and being able to carve out this much time was already being fair to herself. As a commander, she had a commander's duties; she had to go.

She had to leave.

Zhao Chi immediately returned to Peach Blossom Town and received the 400 Giant Beast Tokens Song Ji had given.

He kept 10 of each for himself and handed the rest to Yao Feng.

When he came to Phoenix Cloud Province again, Yao Feng was already fully dressed, still in a suit of gorgeous armor.

The makeup she had just smudged had also been reapplied.

Still exquisite and enchanting.

But compared to her earlier complete composure, now there was an added touch of shy charm and allure.

Her slightly flushed cheeks and the tenderness between her brows made Yao Feng give off a very different feeling from before.

The flavor had changed.

Before, there had still been some sharpness and pride, but now she was all tenderness and sweetness—no longer like a female commander of a battle corps, but more like a mature-sister-type wife full of gentleness and love.

Of course, only a little of the flavor had changed.

And she had only changed in front of Zhao Chi.

In front of others, she was still that high-spirited, decisive female commander.

Yao Feng held a neatly folded stack of damp bedsheets in her hands and handed them to Zhao Chi.

When she had heard Zhao Chi's request just now, she was a little surprised, but she didn't say anything and was actually quite willing.

"You want this?"

Yao Feng looked at the messy bedsheets.

"Yes."

"Why?"

"As a keepsake."

"A keepsake of what? Of the beginning between the two of us?"

"That counts too, but mainly because I like the flower you left."

"Flower?"

Yao Feng looked at the bright red stain in the middle and understood.

She instead said with a hint of pride: "How about it? Big sis didn't lie to you, did she?"

"No, then I'm taking it with me."

"Hold on, it's too messy. Let me fold it neatly for you."

"Fine, but don't clean those things on top."

"I know~"

"I'm heading back to Peach Blossom Town first, I'll be right over."

"Mm, okay, see you in a bit~"

After getting the Giant Beast Tokens, Zhao Chi immediately returned to Yao Feng's territory and entered the room.

He gave the tokens to Yao Feng.

He put the bedsheets into the System Space.

Yao Feng looked at the tokens filling the room and sighed: "This is the first time I've seen so many tokens. Even the System Space can't hold them all."

Zhao Chi asked: "Commander, how many tokens does a lord of your level usually have?"

Yao Feng didn't answer.

With tenderness tinged by a hint of reproachful complaint: "Why are you calling me commander again? Didn't I just tell you? In private, either call me Big Sis or Feng'er—why are you being so distant with me again?"

"Alright, Feng'er, how many tokens does a lord of your level usually have?"

Only then did Yao Feng smile gently and say, "I still have twelve tokens of various types, including the Eternal Tree token you gave me. At most I had around seventy, but continuous fighting keeps consuming them, and there's simply no time to restock — I can't save up much."

Only twelve?

He'd assumed Yao Feng would have several dozen, but it turned out to be only twelve?

Zhao Chi was a little surprised.

It seemed Yao Feng didn't have many in hand either.

But what Yao Feng said was also true — with continuous fighting, most lords only had time to recover battle losses and digest war spoils, with no spare energy to raid beast lairs.

Moreover, they had to maintain combat strength right now — even if they could raid, they couldn't.

Last time, during an evacuation battle, several captains had successively summoned giant beasts like the Blazing Phoenix, the Ancient Giant Tree, the Mountain Giant, and the Nine-Headed Hell Lizard.

The enemy werewolves also summoned giant beasts like the Hellhound, the Bone Dragon, and the Storm Titan.

And those were only the ones visible on the surface.

On the unseen territory battlefields, the consumption was likely even greater.
