Faced with Shao Xiaonan's shameless words, Lin Feng found it truly laughable.
"Miss Shao, you're overthinking it. I'm not that kind of casual man." Lin Feng replied with a smile.
"Right, you can be inhuman when you're casual. Come on, it's so exciting in the wilderness!"
"Whatever pose you like, I can satisfy you!"
Shao Xiaonan's fair hands rested on Lin Feng's shoulders, her tender lips exhaling heat towards his earlobe.
For anyone else, facing such temptation would be difficult to resist.
"Unfortunately, I prefer virgin goods. I have a洁癖 (jié pǐ) about those who've been used." Lin Feng pushed away Shao Xiaonan's hand, unmoved.
"Prefer virgin goods? You're quite a picky eater. This young lady throws herself at you, and you still pretend to be proper?" Shao Xiaonan's expression showed a hint of displeasure.
Clearly, the word "virgin" had touched her pride. She hadn't been a virgin since middle school, and even Zeng Qiang had never dared to say such a thing to her. What right did Lin Feng have to be so picky?
"You stinking man, am I not good-looking enough to impress you?" Shao Xiaonan questioned angrily.
"You're just average. Any girl next to me is prettier than you."
"So, you should just get along well with your boyfriend. I genuinely have no interest in you." Lin Feng smiled and got up, moving away from Shao Xiaonan.
"You bastard, one day you'll beg this young lady. By then, even if you licked my feet, I'd find you pretentious!" Shao Xiaonan glared fiercely at Lin Feng. It was the first time she had ever been rejected by a man, and for her, it was an insult to her person!
After Shao Xiaonan left, Lin Feng resumed his meditative cultivation.
At that moment, Chen Xuerou tiptoed over. She had wanted to chat with Lin Feng and happened to witness Shao Xiaonan seducing him. She had expected Lin Feng and Shao Xiaonan to get together. However, Chen Xuerou hadn't expected Lin Feng to reject Shao Xiaonan. This was far beyond her expectations.
All along, Chen Xuerou had thought Lin Feng was a lustful fellow who couldn't resist a woman. But now, she felt Lin Feng was a bit different from what she had imagined.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that? Did you need something?" Lin Feng noticed Chen Xuerou staring at him and asked, puzzled.
"Yes, I wanted to ask you why you rejected Miss Shao."
"She's not bad-looking, and she's dressed so sexily. Logically, shouldn't you have gotten together with her?" Chen Xuerou asked frankly, without feeling awkward.
"Because she's not good-looking, and she's a used slut. I don't like such casual girls." Lin Feng answered Chen Xuerou as he thought.
Chen Xuerou paused, "So, you mean you have a physiological潔癖 (jié pǐ)? Then why do you always tease me?"
"Teacher Chen, why are you so cute?"
"Because you're good-looking and a virgin, aren't you? If I don't take advantage of you, who else should I take advantage of?" Lin Feng chuckled, finding Chen Xuerou's question rather amusing.
"Ah? Are you complimenting me?" Chen Xuerou was unsure whether to be happy or sad. She was almost thirty and still a virgin, considered an abnormal older single woman by others.
"Of course, I'm complimenting you. A woman like you, who is beautiful, sexy, and a virgin, is simply a treasure."
"Whoever marries you in the future will be getting a great bargain!" Lin Feng replied earnestly.
Chen Xuerou felt elated by Lin Feng's praise. Although the words sounded a bit crude, they were ultimately compliments.
"If you can't sleep, then cultivate with me." Seeing that Chen Xuerou wasn't sleepy, Lin Feng indicated the spot next to him.
"Okay, I enjoy cultivating. Although I don't know what benefits it brings, it's better than not being able to sleep." Without further ado, Chen Xuerou sat beside Lin Feng and entered a cultivation state with him.
The next morning, Shao Liguo's family of three began preparing breakfast.
"Purely crazy, not sleeping at night and sitting there all night." Zeng Qiang sneered disdainfully as he looked at Lin Feng and Chen Xuerou sitting on the ground. He truly couldn't understand how the beautiful Chen Xuerou had become infatuated with Lin Feng. She was perfectly fine, yet she had started meditating. Wasn't that crazy?
"Yes, it's crazy. Let's ignore them and eat ours." Shao Xiaonan already held a grudge against Lin Feng, and seeing Lin Feng and Chen Xuerou sitting together made her even angrier. Even if she admitted she wasn't as pretty as Chen Xuerou, in terms of figure and bedroom skills, she didn't believe she was inferior to Chen Xuerou. This scoundrel Lin Feng, with his unseeing eyes, would one day kneel and sing his submission!
Zeng Qiang, unaware of Shao Xiaonan's attempt to seduce Lin Feng in the middle of the night, didn't think much of it. After finishing the porridge, he began to eat.
Shao Liguo took out a map, "We should reach Longyuan before dark. Zeng Qiang, check the weapons and ammunition."
"The journey to Longyuan is fraught with danger. Be sure to pay attention to safety." Shao Liguo reminded him.
"Don't worry, with me here, your and Xiaonan's safety is guaranteed." Zeng Qiang patted his chest as assurance. After breakfast, he started fiddling with the submachine gun. He loaded the ammunition and polished the submachine gun until it gleamed, as if he were going to war.
Soon, after checking the equipment, Shao Liguo and his group signaled to depart.
Lin Feng and Chen Xuerou got into Sister Rose's car. Sister Rose handed two revolvers to Lin Feng.
"I don't need these. You keep them yourself." Lin Feng declined Sister Rose's kind offer.
"What about the dagger? You'll need a dagger, won't you?" Sister Rose smilingly handed Lin Feng a dagger. The so-called dagger was actually the half-section of the Hidden Dragon Sword.
"I definitely need this." Lin Feng accepted the half-section of the Hidden Dragon Sword, as it was a very important item to him.
"Lin Feng, why is this sword only half?" Chen Xuerou noticed the broken sword in Lin Feng's hand and asked in confusion.
"The other half is at the place we're going. I'm taking you there this time to find the remaining half of the sword." Lin Feng explained.
"Looking for a sword? Is this sword very special?" Chen Xuerou found Lin Feng increasingly inscrutable. Traveling such a distance just to find half a sword seemed utterly fantastical.
"How can you mortals understand the intentions of a god?"
"When we find the other half, you'll know how amazing I am." Lin Feng was full of spirit, eagerly anticipating the mysteries contained within the Hidden Dragon Sword.
"Alright, you are a god, you are the God of Death. Sister Rose and I both know that. You don't need to keep emphasizing it!" Chen Xuerou rolled her eyes at Lin Feng, thinking he was getting too carried away with his role-playing. Calling them mortals one after another, as if he were truly a god!
"Teacher Chen, it seems your relationship with Lin Feng is really not simple. You even know he's the God of Death." Sister Rose smiled in surprise. She felt even more uneasy.
"Our relationship is very normal, just teacher-student. Don't overthink it." Chen Xuerou explained.
"A teacher-student relationship allows for touching chests? Do you think I believe that?" Sister Rose found it amusing. Through the rearview mirror, she had already seen Lin Feng's hand resting on Chen Xuerou's chest.
"Ah? Touching chests?" Chen Xuerou was startled. She looked down at her chest and was immediately speechless. She had no idea when Lin Feng had placed his hand on her chest. Lin Feng's movements were very gentle, and his hand on her chest didn't move, as if it were a child habitually nursing.
