Chapter 163 - 163 Evil Could Never Defeat Justice
“My spirit beast, the Croix Silver Snake, has broken through to the fourth rank. It’s very powerful now.”
Lilian extended her right hand, her fingertips glimmering with a faint golden radiance. Then, her five white and delicate fingers turned into sharp claws. Her fingernails glowed with a cold and sharp light, clearly extremely aggressive.
“I also noticed that my strength has increased.” Lilian sounded a little surprised herself. “My strength was only equivalent to a fourth-tier Martial Apprentice, but now it has reached the level of a fifth-tier Peak-level Master.”
“Hmm?” Upon hearing Lilian’s words, Shen Fei was a little surprised. “Keep it up! When your spirit beast, the Croix Silver Snake, breaks through to the sixth rank, your combat strength will definitely double!” Shen Fei encouraged Lilian.
“Don’t worry, my spirit beast will definitely break through to the sixth rank!” Lilian made a solemn vow, her eyes shining with hope. “Oh right, I’ve also learned that cultivation technique you taught me before.”
“Amazing!” Hearing this, Shen Fei praised her, “Lilian, you’re really smart. It took you so little time to learn the Hulking Dragon Fist!”
Lilian chuckled, “That’s because you taught me well, Shen Fei. Otherwise, with my comprehension, how could I have learned it so quickly?”
Shen Fei’s heart was bursting with pride when he heard Lilian’s adoring and admiring tone.
“Haha, there’s nothing in this world that can only be learned once. Only with constant practice will you be able to master it.”
“Yeah! You’re right, Shen Fei!” Lilian nodded.
“But you didn’t come to me today just to cook me a meal, right? Did something happen?”
“Yes, I do have something to tell you…” Lilian took a deep breath. “My father asked me to come and find you. Please come home with me.”
“Your house?” Shen Fei asked in confusion. He did not understand why Lilian’s father would ask him to go over to their house.
“That’s right, Shen Fei. We’re not just classmates, we’re friends. If you’re willing to come, my father will be overjoyed,” Lilian said seriously.
“I might not be able to go.” Shen Fei rejected it straightaway. It was better to spend the time cultivating than to visit his friend’s parents.
Lilian’s face, which had been full of anticipation, was instantly filled with furrowed lines. ‘That’s right, how could an outstanding person like Shen Fei make time for me?’
“That’s a pity…” Lilian hung her head in disappointment. “Since you’re not free, then we’ll talk when you’re free.”
“Alright,” he said.
“Then I’ll take my leave first.” Lilian left the Shen residence after that.
At this moment, Shen Fei was left alone in the huge room.
“Three-clawed Golden Dragon.”
The Three-clawed Golden Dragon circled around Shen Fei. It was currently at the higher-grade Count rank. If it wanted to level up, it would have to cultivate.
Whoosh!
The Three-clawed Golden Dragon let out a low groan. Immediately after that, it opened its mouth and spat out an extremely pure draconic Qi into Shen Fei, nourishing every part of his body. Under the warmth of the dragon’s elemental energy, Shen Fei’s entire body felt warm and comfortable.
This feeling was like being soaked in water. It made Shen Fei’s divine sense feel as if it was being purified.
“This feels too good!”
Shen Fei’s eyes closed as he enjoyed this wonderful state. He realized that this state could allow his spiritual power to increase exceptionally quickly.
At the same time, Shen Fei discovered that the spirit herbs in his storage ring were decreasing quite rapidly. Furthermore, as time passed, the number of herbs consumed increased. Shen Fei began to worry, as he did not know how long this draconic Qi would last.
However, Shen Fei heaved a sigh of relief when it ended soon after. The pure draconic Qi the Three-clawed Golden Dragon spat out lasted for a full 20 minutes before it gradually dissipated.
“That’s it?”
Shen Fei was a little disappointed, but he was still very grateful to the Three-clawed Golden Dragon.
…
Ding-dong! The doorbell rang again.
When he heard it, Shen Fei went to open the door.
“Aloy, what are you doing here?”
“Shen Fei, I have something important to tell you.” Aloy was extremely solemn.
“What is it?” Shen Fei asked, puzzled.
“Let’s talk inside,” Aloy said as she pulled Shen Fei into the house.
As soon as she dragged him to the room she had designated for herself, Shen Fei could detect an extremely rich fragrance of plants. He raised his head and discovered that there were many green plants placed around the house. Even the floor was covered with a thick, soft lawn.
The walls of the room were filled with lifelike paintings of mountains and rivers, giving the entire room a classical and elegant look.
“Shen Fei, he’s back! He’s actually still alive!” Aloy’s brows were tightly knitted together, and her tone revealed a bit of anger.
“Who?” Shen Fei frowned.
“Have you forgotten him already?” Aloy scoffed.
“You’re talking about…” Shen Fei suddenly realized it. “Your uncle?”
“That’s right! Him! He’s back!” Aloy clenched her fists. “I can sense him returning.”
Looking at Aloy’s serious expression, Shen Fei thought that she did not seem to be lying… He just did not expect Lear to still be alive.
‘Could it be that Black Sun did not kill him earlier?’
“I’m afraid he’ll harm you when he returns.” Aloy was a little agitated.
“Don’t be nervous.” Shen Fei laughed lightly. “Even if he comes back, he’ll be seriously injured. He won’t be able to harm me for the time being.”
“No, I can feel that he has become stronger,” Aloy said with a panicked expression.
Hearing this, Shen Fei frowned. ‘How did he become stronger? Did he absorb some dark energy in the wormhole? How troublesome, Lear’s luck is simply too good!’
“Aloy, you don’t have to be afraid.”
Since Shen Fei had defeated him once, he should naturally be able to defeat him a second time, or however many times it would take. No matter how powerful Lear was, as long as they worked together, they would be able to take him down!
Evil could never defeat justice!
“Shen Fei, I’ll give you this.”
Aloy handed him a sandalwood box. Inside the box was an extremely rare dark-element spirit stone that was the size of a fist.
The dark element contained in the spirit stone was extremely rich. Moreover, the energy within it was denser than all the other elements combined. The effects of using it to assist in cultivation could be said to be heaven-defying.
However, Shen Fei already had these things and did not need this.
“Aloy, you can use this however you want. I don’t need it.” Shen Fei returned the box to her, shaking his head in refusal. “And this thing is too precious, how can I take it from you!”
“Take it. I have plenty of this stuff, and it’s not very useful to me,” Aloy said indifferently.
Shen Fei firmly declined. “I really can’t.”
Although he had a good impression of this dark-element spirit stone, he still did not want it.
