In a hotel in the Sun Moon Empire, Lin Feng slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

"Phew, I've finally recovered. That level 98 Spirit-type Titled Douluo is truly terrifying. Even in my Spirit Avatar state, after withstanding one wave of his mental attack, I needed a full two and a half hours of recuperation to fully recover. Fortunately, it was a million-year Soul Ring. Otherwise, it would have been hard to say who would have won."

Lin Feng shook his head, feeling fortunate that he had placed Tian Meng's Soul Ring in the seventh position. Under the Spirit Avatar brought by that million-year seventh Soul Ring, Lin Feng's mental power was even at the Divine Origin Realm stage.

It was precisely because of that Divine Origin Realm mental power that the level 98 Nightmare Douluo was killed so quickly, almost without a ripple.

If it weren't for a Spirit-type Titled Douluo, even if that person's Soul Power was only level 95, Lin Feng's battle with him wouldn't have been so quiet.

"Six more Soul Bones. If I had known, I wouldn't have bothered buying that Soul Bone from Meng Yiran."

Lin Feng checked the Soul Bone reserves in his Spirit Tool. As a level 98 Titled Douluo, the Nightmare Douluo had already equipped six Soul Bones, none of which were below fifty thousand years. Especially the head Soul Bone, which had reached the hundred-thousand-year realm. Considering his Soul Ring configuration, that Soul Bone was likely obtained when he hunted a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast for his ninth Soul Ring.

In addition to these six Soul Bones and the Soul Bone obtained after hunting the Golden Turtle for its Soul Ring, Lin Feng had another seventeen extremely high-quality Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Bones.

These were contributed by the ten deceased Shrek students.

That's right, saving people couldn't be for nothing. Lin Feng naturally took all the Soul Bones from those ten Shrek Academy students.

And those people were indeed Shrek's elite students. Each of them had one to two Soul Bones above thirty thousand years. Ten people yielded seventeen Soul Bones, a feat that would be incredible in any era other than Dou Er. Only in the Dou Er timeline could so many Soul Bones be obtained.

"What should I do with this pile of Soul Bones?" Looking at the large quantity of Soul Bones, which were enough to be top-tier for many people, Lin Feng was actually troubled about who to give them to.

Just as Lin Feng was pondering what to do with the Soul Bones, his door was knocked, interrupting his thoughts.

After lightly sensing the aura outside the door, Lin Feng's fingertip flowed with a wisp of clear wind, which then transformed into a wind thread and opened the room door.

"What is it? Miss Ruoruo?"

Seeing Han Ruoruo enter, Lin Feng asked calmly.

Han Ruoruo looked at Lin Feng and hesitantly said, "Lin Feng, you..."

"Will you leave after returning to the original Douluo Continent?"

Lin Feng nodded. "I have other matters to attend to afterward, and it would be inconvenient to have someone around then."

Upon hearing this, Han Ruoruo fell silent for a moment before finally stepping forward to hug Lin Feng.

"What's wrong? Miss Ruoruo." Lin Feng was stunned by Han Ruoruo's sudden embrace, not understanding what had happened.

Hearing this, Han Ruoruo said nothing, only silently held Lin Feng tighter. Feeling something warm and soft, Lin Feng didn't rush to ask further and just let Han Ruoruo hold him.

After a long while, Han Ruoruo released her arms from Lin Feng.

After Han Ruoruo let go, Lin Feng brewed her a cup of tea. "So, what exactly happened?"

Hearing this, Han Ruoruo, who had just relaxed a little, became anxious again. Holding the teacup, she fell silent for a moment.

After a long pause, Han Ruoruo finally looked up. "Lin Feng, do you have someone you like?"

"No."

Lin Feng's extremely swift answer made Han Ruoruo's heart sink a little, but then quickly sparked a sliver of hope.

"No" meant that Lin Feng didn't like her, but he didn't like anyone else either. Thinking this, Han Ruoruo slowly spoke.

"Lin Feng, do you know, that time in the Star Dou Great Forest, I thought it was the only life-and-death crisis I would ever encounter. But I never expected that not long ago, the Nightmare Douluo's Spirit Skill made me see that scene again. There, no one could have saved me."

"I'm sorry, I was careless at the time. I didn't expect a level 98 Titled Douluo to ambush me. I didn't anticipate this situation."

Han Ruoruo shook her head. "It's not your fault. If it weren't for you, Lexuan and I would have died in the Star Dou Great Forest."

"Back then, facing the hundred-thousand-year Banyan Tree and the sixty-thousand-year Nether Poison Wolf in the Star Dou Great Forest, I regretted it a little. On one hand, I regretted trusting Profound Elder, and on the other hand, I regretted that in all these years, I hadn't even held a boy's hand."

"At the brink of death, I realized that in this life, besides cultivation, I hadn't done much else. It was as if my life's purpose was only to cultivate, then cultivate to a certain realm, and die by the mouth of a Spirit Beast."

Listening to Han Ruoruo's confession, Lin Feng patted her shoulder. "Relax. In this life, enjoy yourself in time. You never know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. Instead of worrying about accidents all day, it's better to live today well and try not to leave any regrets for yourself."

Listening to Lin Feng's comfort, Han Ruoruo looked at him. "Is that how you live?"

Lin Feng nodded. "Of course. Delicious food, beautiful women, a better living environment, doing as much as you can of what you want to do, and not leaving yourself with regrets. I've always been like this."

"Delicious food, beautiful women? Do you have many wives and concubines?" Han Ruoruo frowned, but after frowning, she thought of something and had a hint of hope.

Lin Feng shook his head. "Not many yet. After all, my age is there, and my previous strength was indeed limited. A few months ago, I was only at the level of an Eight-Ring Soul Douluo. My current strength is due to encountering an opportunity some time ago, so it has surged rapidly. I was able to quickly defeat that Nightmare Douluo because his abilities were exactly what I countered. Otherwise, level 98 would have been quite difficult for me."

Hearing that Lin Feng didn't have many wives and concubines, Han Ruoruo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she gently brushed her hair aside and said nervously, "Delicious food, beautiful women, is it convenient to add one more to me? My appearance should be acceptable, right?"

"Ah?"

Hearing Han Ruoruo's sudden change in tone, Lin Feng was surprised. He didn't expect Han Ruoruo to say that.

"When you saved me in the Star Dou Great Forest before, I already had some feelings for you. It's just that I knew the gap between us then and didn't dare to say it. But since you want many wives and concubines, I can be a concubine, right!"

Han Ruoruo said nervously. She originally thought she might not see Lin Feng again, so she wanted to confess at the last moment. She didn't expect to succeed, after all, compared to Lin Feng's talent, she was completely ordinary.

But when Lin Feng himself was thinking of three wives and four concubines, Han Ruoruo felt that she wasn't completely without a chance.

Hearing this, Lin Feng didn't speak, but silently pulled Han Ruoruo into his embrace.

Just as Han Ruoruo was being held by Lin Feng, Zhang Lexuan suddenly walked into Lin Feng's room through the not-fully-closed door.

Immediately after, Zhang Lexuan saw Lin Feng holding Han Ruoruo in his arms.

Seeing Han Ruoruo being held by Lin Feng, Zhang Lexuan's eyes dimmed slightly. "Sorry, I came at the wrong time."

"No, you came at the perfect time."
