Going to S City

Xu Feng went home and told his family about the job opportunity in S City. After a brief discussion, Xu Shan and Yang Lingxia readily agreed.

To them, their son having a better future was more important than anything else.

Upon hearing the news, his Second Uncle's family also expressed their willingness to try their luck together in S City.

Xu Feng then contacted Piao Zhi Yong to discuss the work arrangements for his father and Second Uncle.

When Wanbao Auction House heard that Xu Feng would be bringing his family and assistant along, they were not only not displeased but became even more enthusiastic. They stated that they could arrange management positions in the auction house's logistics department for Xu Shan and Second Uncle, with salaries far exceeding what they earned in Z City.

The moving arrangements were quickly finalized.

Large items were shipped in advance, and they traveled light.

The next day, Z City Train Station.

Xu Feng's family and Second Uncle's family met in the waiting hall.

Before long, Mai Xiao Wen also arrived, pulling a not-too-large suitcase, her steps light and brisk.

She was wearing a goose-yellow dress today, making her look youthful and radiant.

"Hello, Uncle! Hello, Auntie! Hello, Second Uncle! Hello, Second Aunt!"

Mai Xiao Wen greeted the elders generously, her smile sweet.

Yang Lingxia had long been fond of this pleasant-looking and seemingly well-behaved girl who often appeared by her son's side. Seeing that she would be going to S City with them, Yang Lingxia became even more enthusiastic. She took Mai Xiao Wen's hand and asked her many questions:

"Xiao Wen is coming too? That's wonderful! It'll be nice to have company on the journey! Have you had breakfast? Are you thirsty?"

Xu Feng briefly explained their working relationship.

However, even though Xu Feng's explanation was vague, Yang Lingxia, with her keen eyes, immediately shot her son a look when she heard that Mai Xiao Wen was merely an assistant.

Upon hearing about Mai Xiao Wen's background, Yang Lingxia felt even more heartbroken. She held Mai Xiao Wen's hand tightly, showering her with care and concern, her eyes full of affection.

"Xiao Wen, from now on, consider Auntie's home your own. Don't be shy!

If Xu Feng dares to bully you, you tell Auntie, and Auntie will sort him out!"

Along the way, they traveled in a VIP carriage, which was spacious and comfortable. Their families were the only ones in the entire carriage.

Yang Lingxia spent almost the entire journey with Mai Xiao Wen, chatting about everything from the customs and culture of S City to everyday life, from Xu Feng's embarrassing childhood stories to their hopes for the future.

Mai Xiao Wen responded obediently and occasionally made Yang Lingxia burst into laughter.

Xu Feng, Xu Shan, and Second Uncle were completely left out, only able to watch the scenery outside the window speed by with helpless smiles, occasionally exchanging wry glances.

By the time the train arrived in S City, Yang Lingxia was holding Mai Xiao Wen's hand, as affectionate as mother and daughter.

Mai Xiao Wen had also changed her address, calling Yang Lingxia "Mom" sweetly and naturally, which made Yang Lingxia beam with joy.

"Oh! My dear daughter!"

Yang Lingxia was so happy she couldn't stop smiling.

Xu Feng stood to the side, watching the scene unfold, feeling both warm and amused.

At this moment, he subtly shifted his gaze to an inconspicuous shadowy corner of the distant platform.

A blurry dark figure flashed by, gave him a slight nod, and then seemed to melt into the background, maintaining a discreet distance as it quietly followed.

This was naturally Little Black.

Over the past month, it had been continuously fed high-level Monster meat by Xu Feng. Coupled with its own extraordinary potential and the long-term influence of Xu Feng's Qi and Blood, its strength had advanced by leaps and bounds. It was now comparable to an ordinary high-level C-class Monster.

As his entire family was relocating to S City, Xu Feng naturally wouldn't leave it behind.

With Little Black secretly guarding his family's safety, Xu Feng could pursue higher realms with greater peace of mind.

After exiting the station.

A special car sent by Wanbao Auction House had already been waiting for a long time.

They were met by a middle-aged manager named Wang, who was respectful and attentive.

Wanbao Auction House truly lived up to its reputation as the premier large-scale auction house in the eastern district of S City, offering Xu Feng extremely generous treatment.

Not only had they prepared three adjacent detached villas in a high-end villa area near the auction house—

one for Xu Feng's family, one for Second Uncle's family, and one for Mai Xiao Wen—

but they had also furnished them with basic furniture and daily necessities, demonstrating their sincerity.

After settling his family in, Xu Feng and Mai Xiao Wen went to visit the Wanbao Auction House headquarters to familiarize themselves with the environment.

The auction house occupied a vast area, with magnificent architecture. The interior decoration was luxurious yet tasteful, and the staff were well-trained.

Manager Wang personally accompanied them, explaining in detail the auction house's operational procedures and the duties Xu Feng, as a supervisor, would need to understand and potentially handle.

In reality, his role was quite leisurely, mainly involving overseeing high-value items or important auctions, and dealing with special situations that ordinary security personnel could not handle.

This was the treatment afforded to high-level Hunters.

As long as you had the strength, you would never lack money.

After the tour, Xu Feng took the opportunity to sell the various precious Monster materials he had accumulated over the past month, which were inconvenient to sell in Z City, to the auction house in one go.

After appraisal by professional appraisers, the value of these materials amounted to over one hundred million yuan!

The auction house handled the large sum of money swiftly and efficiently, quickly depositing it into Xu Feng's account.

After understanding the auction house's operations, Xu Feng headed to the S City Hunter Association headquarters alone.

Compared to the branch in Z City, this place was more than ten times larger, and the aura of the Hunters coming and going was generally much stronger.

He went straight to the quest board, looking for a suitable underground city.

Improving his strength was always the top priority.
