Xiao Huohuo: Master must have been lonely living so long, let's find him some sister flowers
When saying these words, Xiao Huohuo was hesitant.
After all, his Master disliked the noise of the outside world, which was why he had lived in seclusion for many years.
He didn't know if his Master would be willing to go back with him.
Chu Feng took the opportunity to get up from his chair, looked around, and sighed:
"Fine, I haven't seen the outside scenery for a long time either. I'll go out with you to take a look."
"Consider it a change of pace."
If it were before, Chu Feng would have definitely refused to leave.
After all, everything about him before was fabricated by himself, without any real strength.
But now, at the fourth level of Qi Refining, he could be considered to have some self-preservation ability, and he could also go out to see if there were other Children of Fortune.
Moreover, he was tired of this kind of simple, rustic life.
Xiao Huohuo was extremely excited:
"Thank you, Master!"
The two tidied up in the forest for a while before stepping into the forest before them.
Three days later.
A young man in blue and an older man stood together on a wide avenue, looking forward.
Before them stood an ancient city gate.
On either side of the gate, the city walls extended for several miles. The blue bricks were covered with many spiderweb-like cracks, which were then covered with rammed earth, layer upon layer, clearly showing the erosion of many years.
The city gate was wide open. Looking inside, one could glimpse the scenery of Dongli City.
It was a wide street, with tall wooden buildings on both sides. Shops were lined up, seemingly endless.
From the shops, commoners walked in and out, filling the entire street, making it incredibly noisy.
Chu Feng looked around and sighed with emotion.
He had finally arrived at a city inhabited by humans!
Every brick and tile before him exuded a fragrant human aura, making him feel at ease.
Humans are gregarious animals, and Chu Feng was not really a hermit expert.
Living in the deep mountains and old forests for the past few months, if it weren't for Xiao Huohuo's company, he would have gone mad.
That dense forest indeed had many fierce beasts. If an ordinary person had to pass through it, they would likely die without a doubt.
However, Xiao Huohuo, who had absorbed nine spiritual energies, could now easily kill the fierce beasts within. How could he, at the fourth level of Qi Refining, not be able to?
After traveling for almost three months, he had finally left that ghost place.
And all of this was thanks to his silly disciple, Xiao Huohuo.
If it weren't for his innate talent and intelligence, and if he hadn't used a made-up cultivation method to refine a body full of spiritual energy.
Otherwise, they wouldn't know how much longer they would have been trapped.
Noticing Chu Feng's gratified gaze, Xiao Huohuo was overjoyed, his palms sweating with excitement. He thought to himself:
"Does Master feel satisfied with me, and with my hometown?"
He was almost dancing with joy, introducing everything before him to Chu Feng:
"Master, this is Dongli City."
"The food in Dongli City is famous throughout the world. There are many delicacies in the city that make the commoners of the surrounding cities drool."
"Right, Master, if you see anything you like, just take it! Don't be polite."
"Even if you fancy someone's wife or daughter, Huohuo will snatch them for you!"
Hearing Xiao Huohuo's words, Chu Feng was speechless.
This honest, silly disciple was a bully before?
He gently tapped Xiao Huohuo's forehead, and the latter immediately quieted down.
Chu Feng slowly said:
"A beautiful young woman's body is like soft jade, her waist adorned with a sword to slay mortals."
"Though no heads fall, she secretly drains your bone marrow."
"Being infatuated with beauty is a great taboo in cultivation."
"Compared to longevity, beauty is not worth mentioning."
"One day, when you also comprehend the Way of Longevity, and have witnessed countless years of vicissitudes, when countless beautiful women turn into white bones, you will understand that these are merely demonic obstacles hindering your path to becoming an immortal."
"At that time, you will know that the path of an immortal is the only path truly worth pursuing."
The excited Xiao Huohuo immediately froze, his eyes looking at Chu Feng's young face, filled with shock:
"Master may look young, but his words are something even Grandmasters who have lived for hundreds of years can't comprehend, right?"
"How long has Master actually lived?"
"Could it be longer than Dongli City, which has a history of thousands of years?"
"He's truly a living immortal!"
At the same time, he felt a pang of sadness:
"To have lived so long all by himself."
"Even if it was to pursue the path of immortality, it must have been incredibly lonely!?"
"Once we enter the city later, I must find a pair of sister flowers to properly serve Master..."
Chu Feng looked at Xiao Huohuo, who was grinning foolishly, and understood. This kid was fantasizing again.
He wondered what he was thinking about to be smiling so lewdly.
Having made up his mind, Xiao Huohuo immediately snapped back to reality and led Chu Feng into the city gate.
Inside the gate, two black-armored soldiers guarding the city recognized Xiao Huohuo.
"Young City Lord."
Xiao Huohuo nodded, and then walked into Dongli City with Chu Feng.
Chu Feng glanced at the two of them. Although they called him Young City Lord, their expressions were not respectful; they were extremely contemptuous.
Even his own subordinates looked down on him.
As the two walked in, the commoners on the street also looked over.
Since breaking through to the fourth level of Qi Refining, Chu Feng's hearing had become much sharper than before.
He could clearly hear the discussions from all directions.
"Isn't that our Young City Lord?"
"Him? He's been sickly since he was a child. Relying on the resources of the City Lord's Mansion, he's been practicing martial arts for nearly seventeen years, and he's still only a third-rate martial artist..."
"Two years ago, he was jilted, which was a huge embarrassment. Not only did he lose face, but he also made a 'Three-Year Pact,' and he's going to make a fool of himself again..."
"I heard he's been traveling around seeking masters for the past two years, but he didn't go to any of the major sects that the City Lord arranged for him. Instead, he's been looking for some hermit experts everywhere. I think he's been reading storybooks too much..."
"The person standing behind him must be the so-called hermit expert he found? Just one look, and you can tell he's a liar..."
"Now that the three-year period is getting closer, it won't be long before this overconfident kid makes a fool of himself again..."
"The Young Sect Master of the Misty Sect has exceptional talent, a rare find in a century. With the backing of a major sect like the Misty Sect, it's said she has already reached the peak of first-rate..."
Listening to the voices from all directions, Chu Feng glanced at the young man again.
He saw the young man lowering his head, clenching his fists, his face looking a little grim.
But the young man didn't argue or defend himself. He just lowered his head and walked forward, as if accustomed to it.
However, Chu Feng couldn't help but curve his lips slightly.
This scene was very similar to what a certain protagonist experienced when they first appeared.
This disciple is truly becoming more and more like the template of a Child of Fortune.
If his fate is indeed similar to that person's.
He wondered if Xiao Huohuo had a girl by his side who had an astonishing background, peerless beauty, and was devoted solely to him...
