Hong Gang swallowed the four energy pills in one gulp, and immediately, a red light flashed from its body.
When the red light disappeared, Hong Gang happily spread its fins, wagged its tail, and with a splash, leaped more than a zhang out of the water, snatching a small bird flying overhead into its mouth.
It wagged its tail again, glided more than sixty meters in the air, then flew back, diving into the water.
"Beep boop beep boop!"
I'm exhausted, Master. This fish feels like the day of flying to heaven is not far off.
I can't anymore, I need to cultivate properly.
Master, I won't accompany you and this beautiful lady for a chat. Goodbye!
Hong Gang wagged its tail and dived deep into the water.
"Xiao Fan, this yellow-cheeked fish has become a spirit!" Bai Yiling was truly shocked.
However, Cheng Xiao Fan appeared completely accustomed to it and said, "It's normal. It's the most spiritual fish among the yellow-cheeked fish. With proper training, it's not a big deal for it to become a spirit!"
"Oh!"
Bai Yiling could only respond in agreement.
In front of this heaven-defying anomaly, she could only act in a very understanding manner.
But in her heart, she raised her own doubts. In the vast sea of people, could this guy still be considered human?
She found that in her constant interactions with Cheng Xiao Fan, she was always discovering new things that shocked her steadfast heart.
Bai Yiling knew very well that what she discovered in Cheng Xiao Fan was just the tip of the iceberg.
At this time, Cheng Xiao Fan found a few tiger vines and tied the lotus roots together. Then, he put the angelfish from the cabin into a net bag.
"Xiao Fan, these fish and lotus roots are not light. How will we take them away?" Bai Yiling asked.
Cheng Xiao Fan thought to himself that as long as she wasn't around, he could directly put them into his space and take them back to the back of Zhuxi Village, then use a motorcycle to carry them home.
But he couldn't say these words aloud.
He smiled slightly and said, "Let the Sky-Breaking Eagle bear a bit of a burden. It can take them back."
Back at Bai Mang Lake, Cheng Xiao Fan tied the boat to a pine tree on the shore.
At this time, the jujube-red horses that were grazing on the lake shore, led by General Bai, all gathered around, neighing and vying to greet Cheng Xiao Fan and Bai Yiling.
The last time Bai Yiling rode a horse and galloped across the lake, she had formed a deep bond with these horses.
She kissed each of the horses and finally, stroking one of them on the cheek, said, "I have something to do today. Next time I come, I will definitely play with you longer!"
"General Bai, Yiling is right. Next time we come, we will definitely stay with you longer!" Cheng Xiao Fan could see that these jujube-red horses were reluctant to let him and Bai Yiling leave.
"Screech—"
After Cheng Xiao Fan and Bai Yiling got on the Sky-Breaking Eagle, the eagle's sharp claws tightly gripped the tiger vines tied to the ox and the net bag filled with angelfish. With a sharp cry, it soared into the sky.
The ten white geese also took to the sky, flying alongside the Sky-Breaking Eagle.
In the sky, Cheng Xiao Fan and Bai Yiling waved goodbye to the thirty-six jujube-red horses below.
Although the Sky-Breaking Eagle's carrying capacity had increased, its flying speed was in no way inferior to when it arrived.
Halfway there, Cheng Xiao Fan received a call from his father.
"Xiao Fan, Master Liu and Master Xu have already arrived. When are you coming back?" Cheng Fugui asked anxiously on the phone.
Obviously, the arrival of the two national-level masters had put immense pressure on Cheng Fugui. The trembling tone of his voice could be felt.
Poor father!
Cheng Xiao Fan immediately replied, "Dad, I'm already on my way back. I'll be there soon!"
He hadn't expected that before ten o'clock, these two had already arrived here from Wangjiang City.
...
At this moment!
At Cheng Xiao Fan's home in Zhuxi Village.
Liu Tingshu and Xu Minghui had just finished visiting the neighboring winery and were sitting at a table chatting with Cheng Fugui.
At the same time, Liu Xinyue had also arrived.
However, this time, she was only acting as the driver for the two elders.
"Please have some tea!"
At this time, Miao Xiuhua came out from the kitchen and served each of them a cup of golden tea.
As soon as the water was poured into the cups, the golden tea leaves immediately unfurled, standing upright in the cup. From the light green tea water, a peculiar fragrance immediately gushed out, filling the entire room.
"Ah, what kind of tea is this? It smells so good!"
Xu Minghui's eyes widened, and he exclaimed.
Cheng Fugui quickly said, "This is the golden tea that my son Xiao Fan rescued from the back mountain."
"This tea only grows on the back mountain of our Zhuxi Village. It's said to be a legendary existence. Over the years, we mountain-gatherers have searched for generations without finding this tea."
"I don't know what kind of good luck my son had to find these golden tea seeds in the deep mountains and cultivate this golden tea again!"
Mentioning his son's affairs, Cheng Fugui finally felt a sigh of relief and spoke eloquently, his face beaming with pride.
Liu Tingshu picked up his cup and took a gentle sip, rolling the tea in his mouth with his tongue for a couple of turns before swallowing it down.
Instantly, his whole body shivered, as if he had been filled with energy.
"Good tea, good tea!"
Liu Tingshu said loudly to Xu Minghui, "Brother Minghui, stop smelling it. Take a sip quickly. The feeling is indescribably wonderful!"
Xu Minghui waved his hand and said, "Tingshu, don't disturb me. I've already discerned something profound from this tea aroma."
"What profoundness can there be?" Liu Tingshu asked eagerly.
Xu Minghui frowned and said, "This profundity can only be understood but not explained. I really can't describe it."
"Alas, I still have to take a sip and savor it properly!"
He then, like Liu Tingshu, took a shallow sip and rolled the fragrant tea in his mouth with his tongue, allowing his taste buds to dance to their fullest for a while before swallowing it.
Xu Minghui immediately closed his eyes, as if immersed in a wonderful realm.
With a look of great satisfaction, he murmured, "Indeed, it is good tea. This tea seems to carry a vibrant vitality. After drinking it, it can speed up one's blood circulation, make one's pulse surge, and generate a new strength within the body!"
As he spoke, he opened his eyes and sighed, "I, Xu, have lived for so many years and drunk all sorts of good teas in the world, yet I have never drunk this kind of tea!"
Cheng Fugui said, "The second brewing of this tea is even more delicious!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Minghui and Liu Tingshu quickly drank the tea in their cups. Miao Xiuhua immediately refilled their cups with hot water.
At that moment, the tea leaves and water in the cups instantly turned golden, and an extraordinary, peculiar fragrance emanated from them.
Xu Minghui took a sip, and his eyes widened again!
"Heavens, the true marvel of this tea lies in this second brewing!"
He couldn't help but exclaim excitedly, "This aroma, this mellowness, this charm, it's simply indescribably wonderful!"
"After drinking this tea, those so-called world-famous teas are simply not tea at all. To be able to cultivate such a tea is truly amazing!"
"Screech—"
Just as he was speaking, a clear eagle's cry came from high in the sky.
Cheng Fugui, as if relieved of a heavy burden, exclaimed with a laugh, "Ah, my son Xiao Fan is back! He's flying back from the sky!"
