Lin Feng: My Heart Aches. I'll Squeeze It All Back Out of Hu Liena Sooner or Later!

Hearing Lin Feng's extremely casual words, Dai Tianfeng, who had just been overjoyed that Lin Feng had accepted the Soul Bone, was completely stunned.

No?

This is the most treasured national artifact passed down through generations of my Star Luo Empire.

A pair of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!

You just...

He casually gave it to two maids?

It's supposed to be... employee benefits?!

Even if you are Deity, you can't waste such precious resources!

This is Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone! Not some roadside cabbage! (Don't underestimate Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone; after all, Tang San's divine equipment in the original novel was formed by fusing six Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones.)

Dai Tianfeng felt that his worldview was being trampled repeatedly and relentlessly by an invisible giant foot.

In stark contrast to his mood was Zhu Chenfei, who was closest to him.

A radiant smile, like a chrysanthemum, instantly bloomed on the old fox's face!

Ecstasy!

What a blessing this is!

Didn't you see that alluring girl feeding the grapes? Didn't they get any Soul Bone?

Deity clearly favors his two daughters more!

The higher the daughter's status, wouldn't his status as the "father-in-law" also rise accordingly?

Zhu Chenfei seemed to already see his bright future of riding on Dai Tianfeng and lording it over everyone; he was so excited that his beard trembled.

However, Lin Feng's next move froze Zhu Chenfei's smile, and together with Dai Tianfeng, they felt what it meant to have their scalp tingle.

The two sisters, Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing, blushed and knelt down like the most obedient kittens, their voices soft and sweet.

"Thank you for the gift, Master."

Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction.

But his gaze fell on Hu Liena, who was forcing a smile, but whose eyes held a deep sense of loss.

The problem is not scarcity, but inequality.

The ancients were right.

I have three employees under me, and I can't favor one over the other.

Lin Feng picked up the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone that Golden Crocodile Douluo had presented earlier and waved it at Hu Liena.

"This Soul Bone doesn't match your attributes, and it would be of great use to the recovery of this Blue Silver Emperor, so I won't give it to you."

As he spoke, a pale blue light screen, visible only to him, quietly unfolded before his eyes.

A dazzling array of products in the System Mall.

Lin Feng's gaze immediately locked onto the Soul Bone area.

[The Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Charm Skull (100,000 Years)]

[Price: 10,000 Gourmet Points]

"That's fucking cheap."

Lin Feng silently complained to himself.

Compared to those otherworldly artifacts that cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of points, the top treasures of the Douluo World are practically like a fire sale.

Even so, his heart still skipped a beat the moment those 10,000 points were deducted.

Damn it, my heart aches so much!

Lin Feng's face twitched almost imperceptibly.

That's enough.

We must squeeze every last penny out of this little fox in the future!

He put down the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone in his hand, and a thought crossed his mind.

The next second, a skull, with a dreamlike pink color, exquisite design, and an extremely alluring aura, appeared out of thin air in his palm!

"This Head Soul Bone of a 100,000-year-old nine-tailed celestial fox is a perfect match for you."

Lin Feng's tone remained calm.

"Take it."

"Consider this a reward for your recent diligence."

Buzz!

Hu Liena's mind went blank.

Her peach blossom eyes, which had just been slightly dim, suddenly burst forth with dazzling brilliance!

A surge of immense joy and guilt welled up within me at the same time.

How could she have just had such a disrespectful thought—that her seniors were favoring the Zhu Family sisters and ostracizing her?

The elders have hearts as vast as the stars and the sea; how could they possibly forget themselves?

It turns out the senior wasn't refusing to give it, but rather preparing something more suitable for themselves!

I really shouldn't have done that!

"Owner..."

Hu Liena's eyes instantly reddened. She dared not be negligent in the slightest and hurriedly accepted the Soul Bone with an almost reverent posture.

"Thank you, Master! Nana will serve you even better from now on!"

Her voice was captivatingly sweet, tinged with a hint of a sob, enough to melt anyone's heart.

Seeing that his three employees were all satisfied, Lin Feng's heartache over the lost points finally dissipated.

In his eyes, this was just an ordinary "team building activity with employee benefits".

However, this action did not escape the notice of the Star Luo Empire group.

It was no less than a mental tsunami of cataclysmic magnitude, almost blowing their skulls off!

No?!

The Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone in your hand... was it really bought at a wholesale price like cabbage?!

How can you just casually take it out like that?

Even their attributes are a perfect match?!

Dai Tianfeng was completely dumbfounded. He stiffly turned his head and looked at the group of Title Douluo who were frantically absorbing the "immortal energy" around the Enlightenment Tea Tree in a sleepwalking tone.

He asked, bewildered.

"Is this... right?"

Upon hearing this,

The group of titled Douluo finally decided to take their eyes off the Enlightenment Tea Tree.

They all turned their heads in unison to look at Dai Tianfeng and his group.

It's like watching a bunch of country bumpkins who just ran out of a remote mountain village and have never seen the world.

Golden Crocodile Douluo was the first to cast a disdainful glance at him.

Demon Bear Douluo didn't hold back at all, curling his lip in a dismissive gesture.

In the end, it was Chrysanthemum Douluo, holding his small handkerchief, raised his orchid-like fingers and Youyou in a superior tone of someone who had been through it all.

"A bumpkin."

These two words, though seemingly light, were like two resounding slaps to the faces of all the envoys from the Star Luo Empire.

"What an extraordinary figure this senior is?"

Ghost Douluo crossed his arms and added coldly.

"Let alone a mere Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, even a divine artifact would be no different from a roadside rock in your eyes, senior."

"Making such a fuss only annoys the seniors."

Dai Tianfeng: "..."

Zhu Chenfei: "..."

The people of the Star Luo Empire: "..."

They felt a burning pain on their faces.

But ironically, he couldn't refute it with a single word.

Just then, Lin Feng, having calmed down the three junior employees, finally turned his gaze back to Dai Tianfeng.

I see your sincerity.

"Then your sins will be forgiven."

Upon hearing this, Dai Tianfeng felt as if he had been granted a pardon.

"Thank you, Deity Majesty! Thank you, Deity Majesty!"

He looked up, about to say something more, like, could he also be given some "perks"...

However.

Lin Feng completely ignored him.

He stood up, his gaze sweeping across the room, and announced.

"This matter is settled."

"We are officially open for business today."

Boom--!

One sentence instantly ignited the entire audience!

"Yay! Dinner's ready!"

"I'm starving! I was so busy digging up potted plants yesterday that I missed eating. Today I'm going to eat until my stomach bursts!"

"Share a table! Share a table! Same as always! Yue Guan, over here!"

The titled Douluo who were unfathomable just a moment ago have now all transformed into elderly men and women scrambling for discounted eggs at the market.

Cheers rang out, and with an agility completely out of character, they began to form groups, put together tables, and prepare to order.

Even Qian Daoliu, who had just been going crazy at the door, turned into a blur in a flash, rushed to a table, plopped down, and grabbed a good spot.

They waited so long, watched the show, and even assaulted people—what was the point?

Isn't it all just so I can eat a hot meal cooked by my senior?

Maple Dye Pavilion, chaos instantly gave way to order, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere.

Only Dai Tianfeng and his group remained, standing there dumbfounded, completely out of place in the frenzied atmosphere, looking incredibly awkward.

Qian Daoliu his head and saw this group of eyesores.

His face, which had just been beaming with joy at securing a good seat, instantly fell.

With a flick of his wrist, he retrieved the L-shaped Pope Scepter, which had been bent by Bibi Dong, from his Soul Tool.

"Snap!"

Qian Daoliu slammed his scepter heavily on the table and gave a cold snort to Dai Tianfeng and the others.

"Hello!"

"If you're here to eat, hurry up and find a place to sit down and line up to order!"

"If you're not going to eat, then get the hell out of here!"

"Don't kneel here, you're getting in the way of the senior!"

Have a meal?

Queue?

Dai Tianfeng's already muddled mind crashed once again.

So... this Deity really... is just a cook who runs a restaurant?

Then what about those Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones and the Enlightenment Tea Tree, those divine objects?

Is it dessert before the meal?

Should I sit down and order something?

Just as Dai Tianfeng was questioning his life and caught in a dilemma,

Behind him, Zhu Chenfei's cunning eyes gleamed with an unusual light.
