Chapter 3243

After saying this, the shopkeeper left.

Standing at the doorway of the dilapidated house, Wu Feng watched the shopkeeper walk away and realized he seemed to be living on the outskirts of a city, surrounded by other low, run-down houses.

These dilapidated houses appeared to be inhabited by other cultivators, who were likely in similar situations.

After the shopkeeper left, two people appeared from next door: a man and a woman.

The man looked like a human-shaped Zhu Bajie, with a lecherous expression.

The woman was very beautiful, with a fine figure.

The two were wrapped around each other, looking at Wu Feng with smiles.

Their smiles were similar, both rather mischievous.

Facing these two, Wu Feng said unhappily, "What are you looking at?"

This was an instinctive dissatisfaction, as if he had already been toyed with by these two many times.

"Hehe, little brother, don't be angry."

The female cultivator let go of the male cultivator, walked up to Wu Feng, and said coquettishly, "If you are willing to give some magic treasures or top-tier materials, little sister is willing to make you comfortable."

The woman's name and some of her circumstances appeared in Wu Feng's mind.

This woman was named Xiao Meiniang, and she lived next door to Wu Feng; she was a... prostitute.

Yes, cultivators could also be prostitutes, as long as they were willing.

Xiao Meiniang's looks and techniques were apparently quite good on the outskirts of this city, and many low-level cultivators would come to her, spend a sum, and have a good time.

Of course, this also indicated that the woman's cultivation base was quite decent; after all, in this day and age, a beautiful female cultivator would most likely be taken by force by male cultivators.

The lecherous man, naturally, was the guest from last night who also lived nearby, named Zhang Wuye.

This guy calling himself Zhang Wuye made Wu Feng quite unhappy, but that was the man's freedom.

Zhang Wuye's cultivation base was higher than Wu Feng's, having already entered the mid-stage of the Quasi-Saint realm.

And Xiao Meiniang was even higher, approaching the late stage of the Quasi-Saint realm.

In any case, before these two, Wu Feng was still a small fry in terms of cultivation.

Therefore, at this moment, the two of them were acting as they pleased before Wu Feng.

Wu Feng felt unhappy, gave them a casual cupped-hand salute, and entered his room.

Once inside, Wu Feng stared at the medicinal herbs and then at the alchemy furnace that was over three meters tall.

The most valuable things in this room were just those herbs and the furnace.

However, both were provided by the shopkeeper, and they would have to be returned once the task was finished.

As Wu Feng held the herbs, he felt a wave of comfort in his heart, as if he could see a scene.

It was a bright moon, and under the moon, a beauty was singing softly, making Wu Feng feel comfortable from the bottom of his heart.

However, this comfort was ultimately a kind of indescribable pleasure; if Wu Feng absorbed too much of it, he would be completely trapped in this world.

【Chapter 2242: Alchemy】

【Chapter 2242: Alchemy】

Wu Feng withdrew from this feeling and began to toss the herbs into the alchemy furnace to refine the elixir.

The shopkeeper wanted White Moon Pills.

These White Moon Pills were elixirs that could allow one to enter a state of emptiness at any time, which could improve a cultivator's cultivation progress.

It was just that, it seemed they could not improve Wu Feng's cultivation base; on the contrary, becoming addicted to them would be harmful to him.

Wu Feng had refined elixirs many times before, so naturally, he felt no pressure regarding these White Moon Pills.

However, after refining for a while, the door was pushed open.

The main door wasn't locked at all; naturally, if someone wanted to come in, Wu Feng couldn't stop them.

Wu Feng was at a critical moment of alchemy, so naturally, he couldn't be too distracted, but he looked over while continuing to refine.

At the doorway, Xiao Meiniang walked in.

As soon as Xiao Meiniang entered, she didn't look at the dilapidated room, but greedily stared at the White Moon Pills taking shape in the furnace, saying, "Wow, are these White Moon Pills? They are truly not bad; they smell calming to the mind even before they've taken shape."

Wu Feng felt a jolt in his heart and quickly said, "Xiao Meiniang, I am refining these for the shopkeeper, as you know."

Only then did Xiao Meiniang reluctantly shift her gaze to Wu Feng, giving him a look of disdain before quickly concealing it and changing to a faint smile.

"Wu Feng, you don't need to be so worried. Although these White Moon Pills are quite good, I have some on me as well. If you are short on them, I can go to the city and buy some."

"Oh, then what is it that you have come here for, Xiao Meiniang?"

Only then did Wu Feng feel slightly relieved, but he continued to ask.

The woman walked toward Wu Feng, her chest heaving slightly, which Wu Feng couldn't help but glance at.

It had to be said that this woman's assets were indeed overly abundant; otherwise, she wouldn't have become the number one prostitute on the outskirts of this city.

Well, the title of number one prostitute wasn't a good name, and Wu Feng didn't want to give it a better-sounding name, like 'courtesan'.

Xiao Meiniang walked slowly to within a meter of Wu Feng and stopped.

"Little brother, ever since you arrived here, I have noticed you. You are someone who should be extraordinary."

Wu Feng felt vigilant. If it weren't for the fact that he was currently refining elixirs and all the herbs had been tossed in, leaving him unable to leave, he definitely would have retreated many steps to maintain a safe distance.

However, even so, Wu Feng still retreated two meters, signaling Xiao Meiniang to stand where she was, before saying, "We are old neighbors; for you to suddenly say this, what is it for? I am currently refining elixirs."

Xiao Meiniang said coquettishly, "Little guy, don't be so afraid of me. Since I have come, I naturally have something I am determined to obtain. If you are willing to honestly hand it over, then we don't need to have a conflict."

Having said this, Xiao Meiniang looked Wu Feng up and down before continuing, "After all, with your cultivation base, I can solve you quite easily."

Wu Feng knew that what Xiao Meiniang said was the truth. Wu Feng, who had been suppressed to the Quasi-Saint stage by this world, was definitely not a match for Xiao Meiniang, who was at the late stage of the Quasi-Saint realm.

However, facing this woman's suppression, Wu Feng still said quite firmly, "If you want to talk to me about something, it would be best to let me finish refining the elixirs first, right? These are my last batch of herbs."

【Chapter 2243: Coercion】

【Chapter 2243: Coercion】

"Fine, I won't force you. I'll just watch you here. Once you finish refining the elixirs, we'll talk."

Xiao Meiniang seemed to have some reason for not wanting to leave, so she found a simple chair in the room and sat down to watch Wu Feng refine the elixirs.

Wu Feng breathed a sigh of relief and tried his best to speed up the alchemy process.

During this time, Wu Feng stole glances at the woman many times. The woman acted coquettishly toward Wu Feng; looking at her posture, there was a feeling that she might strip off her clothes and have a great battle with Wu Feng at any moment.

But Wu Feng knew that this was one of the woman's methods, a method that would make male cultivators lose their minds, and now she was just using it on him.

Wu Feng collected his thoughts. Over the next three hours or so, he refined the herbs completely, and over a hundred White Moon Pills emerged from the furnace, which Wu Feng collected.

Seeing Wu Feng collect the White Moon Pills, Xiao Meiniang nearby couldn't help but smile, saying, "You little guy, although your strength looks quite average, your alchemy skills are truly quite good."

Regarding this woman's posture and statement, Wu Feng felt nothing in his heart and said indifferently, "Now that I have finished refining the elixirs, I need to deliver them to the shopkeeper. If you have anything to say, just say it now."

Xiao Meiniang said disdainfully, "Don't use the shopkeeper to suppress me. I tell you, many of the guests I've had before had cultivation bases exceeding this Shopkeeper Wang's, and he is also afraid of me, you know?"

Regarding this woman's claim, Wu Feng naturally couldn't verify it. Although he knew Xiao Meiniang had been with many male cultivators, in his memory, he didn't observe them much. After all, his cultivation base was quite average; if he observed them casually and was discovered, someone might just come over and solve him with a careless move.

On the outskirts of this city, cultivators like Wu Feng who hadn't reached the Saint level would truly die for nothing if they were killed.

Wu Feng looked at the woman and had to frown as he said, "Then tell me, what exactly do you want to obtain?"

Xiao Meiniang got up from the chair, moved her top-tier waist, and walked to Wu Feng's side, even reaching out to stroke his cheek.

"You little guy, I didn't look at you carefully before. Don't say, your skin is truly quite good."

Wu Feng dodged Xiao Meiniang's finger and said unhappily, "You are joking. We are all cultivators; it is very simple to make our appearance handsome, so there is no need to say it like that."

"Haha, you little guy are truly interesting."

Xiao Meiniang said with a smile, then her expression suddenly turned serious, saying, "Wu Feng, actually, what I want is an alchemist to go to a certain place with me. Of course, I'll tell you the truth: this place is very dangerous."

When Wu Feng heard this, he immediately said with dissatisfaction, "Your cultivation base far exceeds mine, and even you say this place is very dangerous, yet you still want to take me?"

"Yes, you can refuse, but I can kill you right now."

On Xiao Meiniang's palm, many transparent ice blades began to appear. These ice blades accumulated rapidly, numbering in the hundreds, and quickly surrounded Wu Feng.

Although Wu Feng remained cold and maintained an unmoved appearance as he looked at this woman, he was shocked in his heart.

【Chapter 2244: Holding Back】

【Chapter 2244: Holding Back】

Wu Feng knew that this woman's posture was almost as if she would strike at any moment, and she wouldn't hold back. If Wu Feng didn't listen, she might even kill Wu Feng instantly while occupying the first-mover advantage.

"Why do you have to be like this? It's as if I have done something to wrong you."

Wu Feng considered himself to have never provoked this woman since arriving in this broken place.

Wu Feng didn't understand why this woman was targeting him.
