Lin Feng paid no mind to what Yun Yun was thinking. He had saved her because he did not want to stand by and watch someone die. Having done this much was already enough. As for the Misty Cloud Sect, they were bound to clash sooner or later. Ge Ye and the others were people Lin Feng was determined to kill.

As for Yun Yun, saving her had simply been human instinct. He could not just watch a living person perish before his eyes.

As he thought about it, the system's voice suddenly rang out in Lin Feng's mind. "Ding. Congratulations on completing a hidden mission. You have obtained the Flight Dou Skill, Heavenly Cloud Thunder Wings."

Lin Feng froze. There was actually something like this? Had he unknowingly completed a hidden mission?

Saving Yun Yun had been a hidden mission? Did that mean he had missed out on plenty of things before?

Still, he did not dwell on it. Now that he knew, he would have to pay attention next time. He could not afford to miss any opportunity to grow stronger.

As Lin Feng grilled the fish, he examined the two items he had obtained.

One was Chaos Flame, and the other was Heavenly Cloud Thunder Wings.

Chaos Flame was something he had long wanted to obtain. As the source of all flames, he wondered whether it might be even stronger than Heavenly Flames. Yet he could sense the terrifying energy contained within that tiny black flame in his body. It seemed capable of incinerating heaven and earth, reducing all things in the world to ashes.

Within it, Lin Feng seemed to see the scene of the world's creation, of chaos at its beginning. Black flames had been born from the primordial chaos, giving rise to all the flames of heaven and earth.

"What would happen if it encountered a Heavenly Flame?"

Lin Feng speculated. If his Chaos Flame met a Heavenly Flame, would the Heavenly Flame of this world prevail, or would his Chaos Flame crush it outright?

After all, on the Dou Qi Continent, when a Heavenly Flame appeared, all flames submitted. But his Chaos Flame was the source of all flames. Which of the two was stronger?

"I can try it if I get the chance."

Of the places Lin Feng knew that contained Heavenly Flames, the closest was the Green Lotus Core Flame in the Tagor Desert. He happened to be heading there anyway, so perhaps he could give it a try.

As for the Flight Dou Skill, Lin Feng knew such things were rather rare on the Dou Qi Continent. Since he had not been with Xiao Yi Xian, he had not obtained the Purple Cloud Wings either. He had no idea where that thing was. The Monster Mountain Range was so vast that he had searched for it before, but found nothing. Yet today, he had completed a hidden mission and received a Flight Dou Skill. It was truly not bad. Especially for Lin Feng, who had yet to break through to Dou Wang, it would be immensely useful. He would no longer need to climb over mountains and ridges—he could simply fly across them.

He sensed it for a moment and could feel that power behind his back. It was as though something would emerge from there the instant he activated it with Dou Qi.

Unfortunately, the area outside was crawling with the Amethyst Winged Lion King's magical beasts. He could not go out and test its speed right now. Otherwise, he would definitely have enjoyed the feeling of flying.

"Your fish is about to burn."

While Lin Feng was lost in thought, Yun Yun's pleasant voice came from beside him. He snapped back to his senses, immediately turned the fish over, and lowered the flame.

He blew on the slightly burnt side, compared the two fish, then put them back over the fire for a little longer. Once they seemed about done, he picked up the better-grilled one and began eating.

He placed the other fish to one side, toward the stone bed. After taking Lin Feng's medicinal pill, Yun Yun's injuries had improved somewhat. At the very least, she could move now.

The scent of grilled fish filled the cave. Yun Yun struggled into a sitting position. Lin Feng glanced at her and said flatly, "Eat."

"Thank you."

Taking the grilled fish, she looked at the slightly charred parts and hesitated. She glanced at Lin Feng, then opened her small mouth and carefully tore off a piece of unspoiled fish flesh.

The moment she tasted it, her beautiful eyes lit up. "You're quite skilled."

Lin Feng merely gave an "Mm." Seeing that he did not seem inclined to talk to her, Yun Yun did not force the issue and quietly ate her fish.

Lin Feng finished his in just a few bites, tossed the fish bones into the fire, and idly played with the flames.

Yun Yun ate with great elegance, taking small bite after small bite. She wore Lin Feng's white robe, which was somewhat too large for her, yet it could not conceal her stunning figure. Especially as she sat on the stone bed and leaned forward to eat the grilled fish, a broad expanse of snowy white skin could be seen at her collar, while her pair of jade-white calves were exposed to the air, dazzling to the eye.

Neither of them spoke, making the atmosphere in the cave somewhat awkward. Lin Feng idly played with the fire while Yun Yun finished her grilled fish, cleaned up, and sat on the stone bed. After taking the medicinal pill Lin Feng had given her, her internal injuries had improved greatly. Even the wound on her chest had healed in a short time without leaving a scar.

She was rather curious. Such a young man was alone in the depths of the Monster Mountain Range with only the strength of a Dou Master. Moreover, the medicinal pills he had taken out were exceptionally remarkable. With Yun Yun's experience, she knew the pills were of no low grade—otherwise, her injuries could not have healed so quickly.

Which force within the empire did this fellow belong to?

But she had never heard of him.

"Curious?"

Just as Yun Yun stared at Lin Feng, he suddenly turned to look at her. Their gazes met in the air, and for some reason, Yun Yun became slightly flustered, immediately looking away.

Fortunately, she was the leader of a sect. She calmly replied, "A little."

"You're so young, yet you've already broken through to Dou Master. And you're alone in this perilous Monster Mountain Range. Among the younger generation of the Jia Ma Empire, I've never heard of someone like you."

The wood in the fire was nearly gone, so Lin Feng casually tossed in some from the side and said flatly, "I'm from a small place."

Lin Feng's attitude was somewhat cold. Yun Yun pursed her lips and grumbled inwardly, He's so young, yet he has quite the temper.

"No matter what, thank you for saving me."

"Mm."

After that brief exchange, silence fell again. Even Yun Yun found it awkward. When had she ever been treated like this? She had kindly tried to chat with him and ease the awkward atmosphere, but this fellow had shut down the conversation completely.

Lin Feng sat by the fire, idly passing the time, while Yun Yun rested her jade hand against her cheek and sat quietly on the stone bed. The seal within her could not be undone for now, so she could not leave this place either.

Glancing at Lin Feng, she seemed to guess what he was thinking. Lin Feng merely said, "You can leave after you recover."

Yun Yun smiled slightly. "Thank you."

"Oh, right. I still don't know your name."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng answered, "Lin Feng."

"Lin Feng."

When Yun Yun heard the name, it felt somewhat familiar, but she could not remember where she had heard it. Her red lips parted, and her beautiful eyes flickered. "My name is..."

She hesitated. Especially when she saw Lin Feng turn to look at her, his gaze seeming able to pierce through one's heart, Yun Yun felt a little guilty. For some reason, she spoke two words: "Yun Yun."
