Adoptive Father Dai Hui
After returning to the city, Fengyun didn't go anywhere else but went straight home.
Inside the Dai Residence, Dai Hui stared blankly at the three Thunderwing Pegasus following behind Fengyun.
Although he knew that his adopted son's strength had been increasing day by day since he had comprehended some realm of Control Over Self.
But it wasn't until he saw the three Thunderwing Pegasus that came back with his son today that he realized just how strong Fengyun had become!
The Thunderwing Pegasus, a Light Attribute magical beast representing purity and light, is quite famous in the Holy Alliance.
Many white-robed Priest in the Church dream of obtaining a Twin-Winged Pegasus or Thunderwing Pegasus!
Fengyun was followed by three horses!
"Lin Lei, let me introduce you. This is my adoptive father Dai Hui, a captain in the Guard Legion."
Then, he put his arm around Lin Lei and introduced him to Dai Hui, saying, "Old man, this is the Lin Lei I've been telling you about. He's not only a magical genius from the Ernst Academy, but also a master stone Lin Lei."
"From now on, when I'm not home, if Lin Lei comes here, just treat him the same way you treat me."
Hahaha~
Dai Hui then turned his gaze away from the Thunderwing Pegasus and looked at Lin Lei with admiration, saying, "You must be Lin Lei. You are indeed a handsome and talented man, worthy of being a magical genius who can enter Ernst Academy."
Then he looked at Fengyun and said, "Unlike some guy, who's never home and just hangs out outside all the time." As he spoke, he slapped Fengyun on the head.
With a snap, Dai Hui was stunned. His casual strike had actually hit him!
His gaze sharpened, and he immediately began to check Fengyun's physical condition.
The reason for this is that ever since Fengyun surpassed him in strength, he has never been able to hit Fengyun with this kind of attack again.
Now that Fengyun could not dodge his slap, and the sluggishness and weakness he showed when he hit Fengyun earlier, Dai Hui realized that Fengyun must have suffered some serious injury in the Monster Mountain Range!
Fengyun waved his hand and said, "Old man, you should give me some face in front of my brother. Don't keep slapping me on the head like that."
Then, he said to Dai Hui, whose expression turned serious upon discovering his poor physical condition, "Look at your expression. I just used up a lot of my fighting spirit, magic power, and Spiritual Power. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."
"Don't look so gloomy. I'm still the most skilled healing Light Magic. How could I not be able to take care of myself?"
"Just wait until tomorrow and see if I'm still alive and kicking!"
Seeing the genuine ease on Fengyun's face, Dai Hui's heavy expression finally eased a bit.
After discovering Fengyun's talent in the orphanage, he couldn't bear to see it go to waste and took him in out of compassion.
Who knew this little guy was so talented? He fought his way from the Training Camp to the Special Warfare Camp, and recently he was even taken in as a personal guard by Lord Marcus.
He himself rose through the ranks thanks to his son, from a small squad leader to a battalion commander, and gained countless hidden benefits, reaching the Level Five Peak in strength.
Moreover, according to information revealed by some people in the upper echelons who were trying to curry favor with him, once he reached level six, he would either be directly promoted to Deputy Division Commander or be assigned to the Glory Knight Order as a squad leader.
There were even rumors that Lord Marcus intended to recruit him as a bodyguard.
He knew that all of this was caused by his adopted son!
Although neither of them is very good at expressing their feelings, Fengyun usually spends his time either cultivating or drinking and networking, and he is rarely home.
But the two grown men had a very good and harmonious relationship!
Seeing Fengyun in such a poor state, even though Fengyun assured him that he would be fine after some rest, Dai Hui, concerned for him, still pulled him inside to rest properly.
But Fengyun grabbed Dai Hui's hand and said, "Old man, what kind of behavior is this, pulling and tugging like this? We still have things to do!"
Dai Hui was taken aback and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Fengyun gestured towards Ma Er behind him and said, "Old man, your strength has improved too slowly. After all these years, you're still only at Level Five. So I specially asked a friend to go into the mountains to find you a contracted magical beast."
He then instructed Lin Lei to set up Soul Contract Magic Array so that Dai Hui Ma Er.
The reason Lin Lei was asked to make the arrangements was twofold: firstly, Fengyun's current condition was truly poor, and secondly, to maintain secrecy regarding their strength, he wanted to keep himself as low-key as possible.
A genius warrior who has Control Over Self is already quite remarkable; if he were to reveal his current status as Level Seven Mage, the attention he receives would undoubtedly rise even further.
Another significant increase!
He just wants to keep a low profile now and secretly use the Dawson Merchant Guild of Commerce behind Yale to acquire rare and precious Heavenly Treasures that can quickly improve his strength and advance to the Saint Realm as soon as possible.
As for the Thunderwing Pegasus...
The three Thunderwing Pegasus were originally intended for Lin Lei and Huihui, with one for Linley and one for Huihui.
However, Lin Lei, already Dragon Blood Warrior and having reached Level 8 after transformation, looked down on the Thunderwing Pegasus. Furthermore, Beibei didn't like having multiple Thunderwing Pegasus with primarily Light Attribute around him, so he declined Fengyun's offer.
Upon reflection, he realized that the old man Dai Hui didn't even have a decent contracted magical beast by his side.
They decided not to find a more suitable fire Fire Dragon for Dai Hui later, and just let him make do with Thunderwing Pegasus.
Seeing the Soul Contract Magic Array that had been set up in the courtyard in just a moment, Dai Hui finally realized what was happening and pointed at Ma Er, who had been led in front of him, saying, "This Thunderwing Pegasus is for me?"
Then, having gotten the answer from Fengyun's nodding gesture, Dai Hui frowned and said, "What use is a rare and precious magical beast like the Thunderwing Pegasus to an old man like me? It's you, little guy, who needs it more!"
Then, he looked at Ma Yi and Ma San beside him and said, "Little Yun, since this Thunderwing Pegasus hasn't been contracted yet, why don't you contract it as well?"
"We wouldn't mind having more of these magical beasts that can save our lives in critical moments."
In his view, Ma Yi and Ma San should already be contracted by Lin Lei and Fengyun respectively. It's better to let Fengyun continue contracting the extra one than to give it to this old guy. After all, having more good magical beasts like the Thunderwing Pegasus provides more security.
Fengyun understood that his adoptive father Dai Hui, was thinking about his safety, but he really didn't want to contract any more magical beasts at the moment.
After all, he had already formed contracts with Ma Yi and Pangpang. If he were to form contracts with more magical beasts, it could put pressure on his soul. If it weren't for the impending Day of Destruction, Fengyun wouldn't even have planned to form contracts with magical beasts.
Without saying a word, he pushed Dai Hui into the magic circle and said, "You're thinking too much. Hurry up and make the contract. I've already made plans with the brothers. We're going out for a big meal after I change my clothes!"
"Stop dawdling!"
