Chapter 1807
Five hundred million years of time, breaking through to Dao Ancestor and stepping into the Origin Realm— isn't that as easy as catching it?
Xiao Feng is very confident now.
Chen Jie saw him looking satisfied and completely untroubled, and couldn't help saying, "My father became the Lord of the Universe; although his main body experienced less than a million years, the time he spent in Enlightenment amounted to over seventy billion years. He is a genius, and yet he did so—do you think you can surpass him?"
"Seven... seventy billion years?" Xiao Feng's eyes widened instantly.
"Well, I used temporal law to create a temporal Spiritual Barrier for him; he underwent seventy billion years of Enlightenment, while outside less than a day passed." Chen Jie explained the reason.
Speaking of this, her gaze swayed, a bit dazed.
At that time, foreign enemies invaded, the universe was on the brink of destruction, all Dao Ancestors were fighting, and many experts sacrificed their lives.
To let her father break through, she squeezed the Heart of Time to the extreme, sparing no expense of nearly all her vitality to exchange seventy billion years of time for him, resulting in her hair turning white instantly and her Li Ti almost rotting.
Fortunately, the disaster was finally resolved; her father became the Lord of the Universe, drove out the invaders, and resurrected all the fallen Dao Ancestors.
The injuries she sustained were also repaired using the remnants of the two high-dimensional lives that had invaded the universe.
Looking back now, she couldn't help but feel that the father who once shared her heart has become a completely different person...
"Ah, hearing you say that, I feel the sense of crisis rising again." Xiao Feng sighed.
Chen Jie merely gave a faint smile and said no more.
The night sea breeze was a bit strong, blowing cool and slightly sticky on the body.
The two walked along the pedestrian bridge below the coastal highway, wave after wave crashing against the rocks, sometimes splashing a few drops of seawater up when the waves were big.
This pedestrian bridge is very long; the two remained silent for a while, not speaking, quietly listening to the tide as they stepped across the long bridge.
The opposite shore of the bridge is another district of Hai Prefecture, whose urban construction is a few years old, making it look somewhat aged.
Xiao Feng saw the barbecue stall Chen Jie had mentioned.
That place only has a tiny storefront, with a few portable small tables and plastic stools set up outdoors; a short walk of several dozen steps reaches the sea defense dam.
Now it's past 1 a. m., yet people are still there grilling skewers and drinking, occasionally loud voices can be heard, making it look quite lively.
After descending the bridge, the two headed that way, and Xiao Feng couldn't help asking, "Um... won't this place be too... down-to-earth?"
He felt that inviting a Dao Ancestor for food and drink should at least be a decent restaurant; this kind of stall, picking up leftovers, is unsuitable whether bringing seniors or a girl.
Chen Jie lightly said, "I'm happy."
"Alright."
Xiao Feng had no choice but to abandon the idea of dissuading her.
After crossing an overpass, the two arrived at the barbecue stall.
"Boss, are you closing soon?" Xiao Feng asked.
The stall owners are a middle-aged couple, around fifty, looking very simple. The boss replied, "Not yet, we're open until 3 a. m.; young man, bringing your girlfriend out for a walk this late—let's see what you'd like to eat."
While speaking, seeing that Xiao Feng and Chen Jie both had outstanding looks, they couldn't help but glance at them a couple more times.
"What do you want?" Xiao Feng looked at Chen Jie.
She thought for a moment and said, "Just two small skewers to go with the drink."
Hearing that, Xiao Feng felt he didn't need to add anything either, so he said, "Just that for now; we can add more after we finish eating and drinking, so it doesn't get cold."
"Alright, you can sit over there for now." The boss, seeing they looked well-off, readily said.
Outside, there happened to be an empty table and chairs, with several young people gathered nearby drinking and rolling dice, shouting loudly.
Xiao Feng moved the table and chairs a few steps aside.
Chen Jie sat down casually, not picking on the modest conditions; instead, he rather enjoyed the bustling market atmosphere.
"How did you come up with the idea to drink at such a small stall?" Xiao Feng wondered.
"You talk too much." Chen Jie had no desire to chat about such a nutritionally empty topic.
The boss's wife first brought over a dozen beers, 207 ml transparent glass bottles, quite delicate.
Xiao Feng took one bottle for her and one for himself, then directly twisted off the cap with his hand.
"Opener." Chen Jie said to him, not opening the bottle himself.
Xiao Feng froze.
Is she really treating herself as an ordinary person?
Such a beer bottle cap seal—let alone a Dao Ancestor or superhuman, even an ordinary person with a bit more strength could force it open, but she had no intention of doing so.
Seeing her act all delicate, Xiao Feng didn't dare to pry it open with his fingers; he obediently took the opener to help open the bottle.
Just after it was opened, Chen Jie gulped it down in one go, finishing a bottle in a single gulp.
Although the bottle is small, this manner is still quite heroic.
"You're not even waiting for me...?"
Xiao Feng complained, then opened another bottle for her.
"Then together."
Chen Jie clinked with him, then blew on the bottle.
Xiao Feng really wanted to advise her to take it easy, but a Dao Ancestor likely couldn't get drunk, making it rather awkward.
He simply stopped talking and joined in, gulping down his own drink.
The two's hearty drinking posture drew the attention of the young people at the next table.
These people were actually petty thugs; seeing a girl drinking heavily and being very pretty, they couldn't help but harbor thoughts.
One of them walked over and asked the boss whether he knew this handsome guy and beautiful girl.
The boss, fearing they might cause trouble, pretended to know them, saying they were locals.
The young man didn't think much of it, went back and whispered a few words to his companions, and immediately five of them gathered around.
At this moment, Xiao Feng and Chen Jie had just finished a dozen beers, the skewers hadn't arrived yet.
With their keen senses, they naturally heard everything the people around them said clearly.
Chen Jie wore a calm look, his eyes only on the wine, as if he hadn't heard that he was being talked about with vulgar words.
Xiao Feng wasn't so broad-minded; while he was drinking with Dao Ancestor Sister, a few punks nearby actually discussed what position to take her in, treating him like a decoration.
"Hey, drinking so heavily, are you trying to break up?"
"Little brother, you can't handle such a beautiful sister; hand her over to me and go home quickly, or else I won't help pay your medical bills later."
"Hehe, you can hold your liquor—you just chugged all those bottles; want to blow something else?"
The punks had a tone of looking for trouble.
Xiao Feng set down the wine bottle and said lightly: "Out here mixing, doesn't anyone tell you to check who you're dealing with before causing trouble?"
He was too lazy to lay a hand on such street punks.
The punks gave him two glances.
"What, you think you're a big shot?" a yellow-haired punk said disdainfully.
The dim light of the roadside stall made things hard to see, but I could roughly tell the man looked rough and the woman was very pretty.
A lackey nearby turned on his phone's flashlight and shone it, chuckling: "With such a big mouth, let's see which big shot this is… damn, he looks familiar, could this be Xiao Feng?"
He had been sounding like he wanted a beating, but upon seeing Xiao Feng's face clearly, he went dumb.
Being shone by the flashlight made Xiao Feng even more annoyed, and he said: "If you don't want to get beaten, scram."
"Huh? Holy shit, this…"
The punks were all dazed.
"Xiao Feng!"
An existence like a god of the myriad heavens world, a super boss of Blue Star, a big shot on the level of aliens' forefather!
I never expected to run into him here today.
"Great god… I… I'm your fan," a punk whispered.
The leader, seeing Xiao Feng's unhappy tone, realized they had seriously disturbed the big shot's flirting, and hurriedly said: "Go, go, go!" afraid that if they delayed they wouldn't see tomorrow's sun.
Nowadays people aren't like before; big shots in games are usually strong in real life too. They're just level 500 upper gods in the game, not even main gods, so they only bully ordinary folks.
When encountering a real big shot, the only option is to run.
"Remember to pay," Xiao Feng also reminded them.
One of those who had just run off came back and obediently settled the bill.
