“What the hell is going on?”
“I-I don’t know.”
“Look, that bug!”
Seeing the Dap Ghost Bug flapping in the ashes, everyone present backed away in fear.
They couldn’t even extinguish the flames on Huang San with water, would they be burned alive if they got close?
Yin Nan Feng stared intently at the Dap Ghost Bug, afraid that it would kill again.
However!
The Dap Ghost Bug extinguished the Immeasurable Karma Fire and flew directly out the window, disappearing into the air shortly after.
“It flew away.”
“What kind of bug is that, does anyone recognize it?”
“I’ve never heard of it.”
“……”
Yin Nan Feng’s face was gloomy as she watched the direction the Dap Ghost Bug disappeared in.
“Take care of Huang San’s body, and don’t spread the word about this!”
After giving her instructions, Yin Nan Feng found the Old Buddha’s adjutant, Zhang Ri Shan, who was also the strongest force in the New Moon Hotel.
“Why are you here?”
Zhang Ri Shan put down the book in his hand, looking at Yin Nan Feng with confusion.
“Someone died at the hotel.”
“What happened?”
“Huang San was bitten by a bug, and then his whole body caught fire, even pouring water couldn’t put out the fire. It took less than ten seconds for Huang San to be burned to ashes.”
“A bug?”
Zhang Ri Shan’s brows furrowed slightly as he began to search his memory.
He had lived for over a hundred years, and he had seen too many strange and wonderful things in his eighty-plus years wandering the Nine Gates, the four words “widely seen and widely known” were definitely not a description.
“Firefly?”
Zhang Ri Shan wasn’t sure.
“What’s a firefly?”
“I heard of a bug that could burn people alive. It is said to be only recorded in the notes of foreign explorers, I’ve never actually encountered it.”
“There are still things you don’t know about in this world?”
“I’m just a person, not a god, of course there are things I don’t know.” Zhang Ri Shan shook his head, “Did he offend someone?”
Yin Nan Feng was taken aback and said solemnly, “Last night, Huang San snuck into Lu Feng’s courtyard and was caught red-handed. However, I took him to apologize to Lu Feng.”
“He died after apologizing?”
“You suspect Lu Feng?”
“Why can’t I suspect him?”
“Can he control such a strange bug?”
Yin Nan Feng’s eyelids twitched involuntarily, if they used this kind of bug to attack, how many people could defend against it? It made her scalp tingle just thinking about it.
“It’s not like there are no people who control bugs.”
“It shouldn’t be, he’s already accepted our apology.”
“Invite him over, I want to see him.”
“Ok.”
Yin Nan Feng agreed, and made a phone call to Lu Feng.
“Miss Yin, is something the matter?”
“Mr. Lu, I’d like to invite you to have dinner at the New Moon Hotel tonight to express our apologies!”
“You’ve already apologized, forget about dinner.”
“Please do me the honor, I don’t want the Huang San incident to affect our future cooperation.”
“……Fine.”
Lu Feng thought about it and decided to go.
The New Moon Hotel was already suspecting him for Huang San’s death, but there was no evidence to say anything. This dinner was probably a test.
Even if he didn’t go tonight, the day after tomorrow, the day after that… this test would come sooner or later.
After ending the call, Lu Feng began to train quietly.
Not long after.
The Dap Ghost Bug returned safely, landing on Lu Feng’s shoulder.
“It seems that I’ll have to pay attention to the environment I use it in from now on.”
If Zhang Ri Shan had been there, the Dap Ghost Bug might not have been able to come back.
He only had two Dap Ghost Bugs now, and if he lost one, he’d have one less.
“System, open the store.”
Ten-year-old Wild Ginseng (1): 略.
National Martial Arts Tan Legs (10): From the Dragon Snake Martial Arts.
Bottle of Marrow-Washing Pills (25): 6 pills in total, washes and refines the meridians.
Bottle of Qi Gathering Pills (20): 6 pills in total, can improve cultivation speed, one pill lasts for one hour, can purchase two bottles.
World-Annihilating Spear Art (2000): From the starry sky, it is a spear art at the same level as the Nine-Headed Thunder Blade.
“World-Annihilating Spear Art? Forget it.”
Lu Feng had only just reached the second level of the Nine-Headed Thunder Blade, and he didn’t have that much energy to train if he bought the World-Annihilating Spear Art.
It wouldn’t be convenient to use it while carrying a long spear down into a tomb either.
As for the National Martial Arts Tan Legs.
10 points of credits, you can’t go wrong buying it.
“System, exchange for the National Martial Arts Tan Legs, Marrow-Washing Pills, and Qi Gathering Pills.”
“Ding! Consumed 75 points of credits.”
“Remaining credits: 2616 (2635 + 4 * 14 – 75).”
Lu Feng first received the National Martial Arts Tan Legs, then took out a Qi Gathering Pill and swallowed it.
With the addition of the Qi Gathering Pill, the speed of cultivating the Five Hearts Facing Heaven was significantly faster, even the speed at which the Six Reservoirs Immortal Stealer absorbed the energy of heaven and earth was faster.
One hour passed quickly.
“This effect is a bit weak for me.”
It wasn’t actually weak, but Lu Feng’s basic data was too high, and the Qi Gathering Pill’s one-hour bonus seemed a bit weak in comparison.
If it were Hu Ba Yi who used it, then the effect would be immediate!
Next, he’d have to see when new items would be available in the store.
“Hu Ba Yi, take this and eat it.”
“What’s this?”
“Marrow-Washing Pill, Huanglong Pill.”
“Marrow-Washing Pill?”
Hu Ba Yi looked up in astonishment.
He had only heard about this kind of pill from his grandfather, who said that some secluded cultivators had these marrow-washing and meridian-refining elixirs.
But those cultivators were elusive, unseen by the outside world.
Where did Lu Feng get it from?
“Don’t want it?”
“No.”
“Then what are you standing there for?”
“I won’t say the thank yous, anyway, I, Hu Ba Yi, am following you now.” Hu Ba Yi said solemnly.
“I know.”
“What about the Huanglong Pill?”
“It strengthens your blood and qi, increasing your strength.”
It would take a long time for them to cultivate, a single Huanglong Pill could boost Hu Ba Yi’s punching power to 1,000 kilograms, and he could help with a lot of things later.
Such as catching Huang San.
Hu Ba Yi didn’t think much of it and swallowed the Marrow-Washing Pill immediately.
Not long after.
First, it removed a large amount of impurities from his body through excretion, then it expelled dirt from his skin through his pores, leaving him covered in dirt.
After cleaning himself up, Hu Ba Yi took the Huanglong Pill.
As soon as the pill entered his stomach, he felt extremely hot, he felt like he had to vent it, so he immediately ran into the courtyard to practice with the wooden dummy.
Crack!
The wooden dummy cracked!
Hu Ba Yi was dumbfounded at that moment.
The wooden dummy that was as thick as a man’s head was cracked open by his single palm strike?
How much strength was needed to do this?
“Damn, Old Hu, what did you eat, why are you so powerful?”
Wang Pangzi saw the cracked wooden dummy, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Hu Ba Yi didn’t answer him, took a deep breath and slapped the wooden dummy with his palm. Crack, the wooden dummy broke.
“Sss!”
Hu Ba Yi gasped.
The Huanglong Pill!
It must be because of the Huanglong Pill!
