Ye Feng: Xiao Wu, My First Love

Ye Feng settled things with Dai Mubai. Since the Rose Hotel had only one room left, Tang San suggested leaving it to Ye Feng. After all, Ye Feng was the Boss of the Seventh Dorm. Tang San and Xiao Wu could find another hotel to stay in.

Ye Feng refused this arrangement. His reason was that the hotel room was large enough for two or even three people to stay in together. Ye Feng said that if Tang San wanted to find another hotel, he would not stop him. He then asked Xiao Wu whether she wanted to find another hotel as well. Xiao Wu answered that she would make do with Ye Feng for the night. After all, back at Notting Academy, she had shared a room with Ye Feng.

After Tang San left, Ye Feng took the room key and followed the attendant's directions to find their room.

Suddenly, Ye Feng, who was walking ahead, stopped.

Xiao Wu blushed and asked resentfully, "Brother, what are you doing?"

Ye Feng innocently pointed ahead and explained, "Opening the door."

As he spoke, Ye Feng used the key to unlock the door.

The moment the door opened, Xiao Wu froze.

The room was huge. The living room alone covered more than fifty square meters. Most praiseworthy of all, the bed was truly enormous—more than enough to withstand the tossing and turning of three people.

Looking at Xiao Wu, Ye Feng was not sure whether she had fallen for him. He tested her tentatively. "Xiao Wu, look. It says, 'One thousand and one, you are my only one.' There are roses everywhere too. Why do I feel like this is a place for lovers to meet in secret?"

Xiao Wu's face reddened slightly. She walked forward without meeting Ye Feng's gaze. "Brother, isn't it good that the room is pretty? You're not some old-fashioned person either. As long as it's comfortable, that's enough. Mm, it smells so nice. The decor is beautiful too. I'm starting to like this place already. Brother, it's not expensive either. It only costs ten Gold Soul Coins a night. Can we come here often in the future?"

Ye Feng shook his head with a bitter smile. He was already ninety percent sure that Xiao Wu liked him as a man and a woman would. "And ten Gold Soul Coins isn't expensive? If you really have to come, you can stay here by yourself."

Xiao Wu turned around, her brows lifting slightly. Looking as though she hated that iron could not become steel, she poked Ye Feng in the chest and scolded, "I said us. What fun is it to stay alone? Brother, you can be really dense sometimes. How are you supposed to find a wife in the future if you're like this? Honestly, Brother, sometimes I really wonder whether you're even a man."

Ye Feng paused, rubbed his nose, and retorted, "What did you say?"

Without hesitation, Xiao Wu repeated, "I said, with how Pure and Clean you are, I really wonder whether you're even a man."

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Ye Feng grew irritated. He smiled as he glared at her and snapped, "Say that again if you dare."

Xiao Wu smiled, utterly fearless. "So what if I say it again? Brother, don't tell me you really aren't a man?"

"Brother, don't tell me you really aren't a man?"

Xiao Wu giggled and met Ye Feng's eyes teasingly. Their gazes met, and faint sparks seemed to fly between them.

Ye Feng looked at Xiao Wu with deep affection. At this moment, Xiao Wu was like a perfectly ripened peach, making one unable to resist tasting her sweetness.

Ye Feng's mind went blank, completely ruled by a single impulse. His lips drew closer and closer to Xiao Wu's. His breathing became increasingly rapid.

Xiao Wu sensed that something was different in the atmosphere. Though she had realized what was about to happen, she remained rooted to the spot. Like Ye Feng, her mind was completely blank.

Smack.

Their lips met, dry wood meeting raging fire. A feeling neither had ever experienced before swept over Ye Feng and Xiao Wu. Ten seconds later, Ye Feng regained his senses. He stepped back, standing there helplessly like a child who had stolen someone else's food.

Looking at Xiao Wu's flushed face, Ye Feng stammered awkwardly, "Xiao Wu, I... I just... was only... proving..."

Xiao Wu reached out, stepped forward, and wrapped her arms around Ye Feng's waist. Their lips met again, and she soothed the unease in his heart through her actions.

Suotuo City was a prosperous city of the Balak Kingdom, and its pace of life was clearly much faster than Notting City's. Busy people could be seen everywhere. A young boy and girl walked hand in hand along Suotuo City's bustling streets.

Suotuo City had many shops, especially clothing stores. Xiao Wu dragged Ye Feng through quite a few of them. The two were now lovers, having pierced through the thin barrier between friends. Whenever Xiao Wu took a liking to a piece of clothing, Ye Feng would willingly pay for it.

"Eh!"

While shopping, Ye Feng suddenly cried out in surprise.

"What is it?"

Xiao Wu looked at Ye Feng curiously and followed his gaze. She saw that one shop's sign bore a circular emblem. Several unusual symbols were inscribed on it. "A Soul Master shop?"

The symbols were a sword, a hammer, and a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. This indicated that the shop sold items needed by Soul Masters.

"Let's go in and take a look." Xiao Wu linked her arm through Ye Feng's and led him into the shop.

The lighting inside was somewhat dim, and faint, unusual energy fluctuations filled the place. This was because there were Soul Tools here.

A rocking chair stood in the middle of the shop, and a bespectacled middle-aged man lay in it.

The middle-aged man had his eyes closed as he swayed in the rocking chair. He appeared to be around fifty years old, and the chair creaked beneath his weight.

Ye Feng knew that this man was Flender, the Flying Horn of the Golden Iron Triangle.

Ye Feng surveyed the shop. Since he had not known where this shop was, he had not come here immediately. Now that Tang San had temporarily parted ways with him and Xiao Wu, Ye Feng could not be sure whether Tang San had already visited this place.

In the original storyline, Tang San had obtained the natural hidden weapon Dragon Beard Needle here, worth ten thousand Gold Soul Coins.

Curious, Ye Feng looked around until his gaze landed on an inconspicuous crystal the size of a human head by the wall.

Banjin?

Ye Feng's expression stiffened. He was so delighted inside that he nearly laughed aloud.

The Banjin was still in the shop, which also meant that Tang San had not yet come here to obtain his opportunity.

Ye Feng looked at Xiao Wu and deliberately struck up a conversation. "Xiao Wu, shall we go register at Shrek Academy this afternoon?"

"No. Shrek Academy is in the outskirts of Suotuo City. I heard it takes several hours to get there on foot. Registration lasts for the next few days, so there's no need to rush. Tomorrow. We'll register at Shrek Academy first thing tomorrow morning," Xiao Wu said.

"Fine. Then we'll register at Shrek Academy tomorrow." Ye Feng grinned and glanced sideways at Flender, who was lying in the rocking chair.

Although Flender had not opened his eyes, when Ye Feng and Xiao Wu had been talking, Ye Feng had clearly noticed that the motion of Flender's rocking chair had paused for a moment.
