Chapter 2097: Long-term Attention (5 more)

After staying in the Myriad Heavens Tower for five days, Xiao Feng paused the game again and returned to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield to cultivate.

The time in the Hegemony Game passed quickly, but this large-scale war didn't end that fast either—at least it would take several hundred years to finish.

When Xiao Feng left, the Western Border, where the situation was worst, saw some turning points: an independent NPC broke through level 90, and in just thirty years made rapid progress, jumping straight from level 89 to level 94, showing great potential to turn the tide.

This independent NPC is called Xiao Yi.

Xiao Feng felt that playing this Hegemony Game was essentially experiencing the ancient wars from another angle.

Although things went smoothly, NPCs still occasionally died in battle.

He was a little worried that the earliest independent NPCs, Xiao Chao and Xiao Sui, might soon fall.

And even if it happened, he couldn't stop it; he could only accept it.

Returning to the World Ancient Tree, Xiao Feng cultivated for twelve hours.

After finishing his cultivation, he began to ponder how to grasp the movements of Di Jiang and Kun Peng.

These two bosses are his targets to conquer.

Kun Peng is a bit difficult, after all, its power is terrifying.

As for Di Jiang, he is currently injured, hiding in the Void Sea, so there might be a chance to detect him.

Besides, going to the Void Sea is also quite far, feels inconvenient, and besides, there is a Dao Ancestor there; if he went to spy, he would easily provoke the Dao Ancestor's displeasure, and if he got slapped to death, that would be embarrassing.

Xiao Feng thought for a moment, then took out the Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi.

"What do you want me to do?" the Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi said in a tsundere tone.

Xiao Feng tapped it and asked, "Can you set up a tracking function to keep an eye on Di Jiang, and—"

"and give me feedback whenever there's any movement?"

"Long-term? Or Di Jiang? You must be mistaken!" the Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi shrieked, thinking he had gone crazy.

"One test costs 100 million Spirit Stones; I'll test you every hour, 2.4 billion per day. How long a package do you want?" it asked Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng gave a wry smile: "No need to be that expensive; we're so familiar, give me a discount—how about 0.1x?"

"Good, deal!"

Unexpectedly, the Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi agreed immediately.

Xiao Feng's heart skipped a beat; he felt it wasn't good.

The Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi said, "Giving you a 0.1x discount means a one percent fee. One day drops from 24 billion to 240 million Spirit Stones; you pay me 2.4 billion upfront, guaranteeing ten days' consumption, and I can provide this service."

Ten days, 2.4 billion Spirit Stones…

Really expensive!

But…

Xiao Feng gritted his teeth and handed it over!

"Good, deal!"

He took out 2.4 billion Spirit Stones from his backpack and gave the bag to the Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi.

"Wow, really!"

Seeing the Spirit Stones, the Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi, like a pig seeing cabbage, immediately opened the bag and shoved its head in, then made a "kaba kaba" sound as it gulped down the Spirit Stones.

"Hey hey hey, don't just eat—what about the service!" Xiao Feng pulled it out of the bag.

"Eh, no big deal."

The Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi immediately began tracking Di Jiang's traces.

It was still that extremely illusory shadow, faintly visible as being in the Xing Kong.

It seems Di Jiang should be staying in the Void Sea to recuperate and won't leave soon.

Xiao Feng thought, should he pause the service package and talk about it after ten days or so?

But upon further thought,

If he happened to miss Di Jiang's movement trail, it would be embarrassing.

Kun Peng is still chasing Di Jiang; if that guy succeeds first, the four Primordial Holy Artifacts and the "Dao Source Divine Tree" transformed from the last seed of the Jianmu would be gone.

The money that needs to be spent still has to be spent; although his Spirit Stones aren't as many as Divine Stones, supplying the Xun Zong Jie Hui Shi's consumption is still no problem.

Especially since he recently confirmed his relationship with Han Zichen, this strongest soft-rice-king's wealthy lady has gained another; if he needs Spirit Stones, he can just borrow from Han Zichen.

As for how to repay…

Whatever, worst case, pay with flesh!

……

Time flew by; in the blink of an eye, another three days passed.

Xian Xia, the Jiyu Imperial City of the Nine Provinces World.

After Han Zichen had been online at high intensity for five days, he finally finished his business and logged out of the game world.

"Ah, exhausted; the hegemony period is getting closer, and now I'm busy every day…"

The two were staying at an inn; Han Zichen had just woken up, saw Xiao Feng sitting quietly beside him, and immediately flung himself into his embrace, enjoying Xiao Feng's warm hug.

"Or else let someone else take the lordship, slack off and rest a year." Xiao Feng rubbed her little head.

Han Zichen shook his head: "They all refuse to take the Civilization Sword, and I can't do anything about it. There are still over ten years until the hegemony ends; bear with it. After ten years pass, I can finally relax completely, and then we can travel together, enjoying mountains and waters, going wherever we want."

"Good, ten short years isn't anything." Xiao Feng replied happily.

But he knew in his heart that after the hegemony ends, Han Zichen probably won't really be able to idle away.

The Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden took a liking to her, planning to take her as a disciple, to

At least for the few years right after the game ends, she will definitely follow the Mysterious Maiden in cultivation and won't be able to go out wandering with him.

This is a secret, not yet speakable; Xiao Feng can only pretend not to know.

"Dao brother, what are your plans today?" Han Zichen leaned his head on his shoulder and asked.

Xiao Feng replied, "The matters in Yu Emperor City are already done. Next I'll go to Xi Emperor Mountain for a trip. Your words…… I'll send you home first."

"Okay."

Han Zichen agreed, then asked him, "How long will you go? When will you come back to find me?"

"I'm not sure either. If short, a few hours; if long…… if there's fate, staying to cultivate, I'm afraid it'd be more than ten days or half a month."

"Well then…… if you're going to stay long, just tell me in the game. When you want to come, give me a day's notice, and I…… will wait for you offline."

Han Zichen said to him.

Her tone carried a hint of anticipation, as well as a faint shyness.

Xiao Feng was no longer a hotheaded youth; upon hearing this, he immediately understood her plan.

"You…… ready?" he asked, smiling at the ancient-clad maiden in his arms.

Han Zichen's face turned slightly red, and she shyly replied, "Let's give it a try…… I…… I don't really understand either, you'll have to teach me."

Xiao Feng chuckled, "Alright, I'll definitely give you an unforgettable experience."

Earlier, the descendant of Yu Emperor, Si Yunshuang, appeared and said that he must not touch He Yurou, otherwise he would not accept this disciple.

However, Han Zichen has no such restriction. That's merely Si Yunshuang's personal preference; Han Zichen is a disciple predestined by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden, and as long as the Senior Mysterious Maiden doesn't mind, it's fine.

As for whether the Senior Mysterious Maiden minds……

Hmm…… according to the Divine Sense of someone stronger than him

Stronger, having long since perceived his situation, they surely wouldn't care.

Otherwise, the day he and Han Zichen first arrived here, they'd probably have been warned!

"Hmm……"

Upon hearing Xiao Feng's words, Han Zichen's face grew even redder; she buried her face in his embrace and remained there for a while.

After a while, she then said, "Let's set off; we can still talk along the way."

"Okay."

Xiao Feng nodded, and together with her he went downstairs to settle the bill, then he horizontally lifted her, rose into the air, and directly left Yu Emperor City.
