The middle-aged man's hands trembled on the premium meat as he wasn't sure what to do here. Should he give it to Bai Feng and Mo Pian, who came first? Or the firstborn daughter of the second most important loanshark in the whole sect?

The middle-aged man had some integrity in him, as he didn't immediately throw the crocodile elf rib-eye steak to Chen Lingxi the moment she appeared, but fear was a thing that could control the minds of humans to a high degree. So in the end, the man gave up and threw the red GoGo coins back to Bai Feng before saying:

"I'm sorry young masters. But young lady Lingxi has priority in this situation..."

Chen Lingxi covered her mouth with her hand as she laughed while looking directly into Bai Feng's eyes:

"Come on, don't be mad. This is only for the good of my little sister, who needs to cultivate. I'm not targeting you or anything- I got over what happened back at the restaurant."

It was obvious that Lingxi was lying. Ba

    Bai Feng could feel his whole body rather well under his current frozen status, but whatever he did to try and move it just didn't work. He was quite familiar with the movements of his body, but he didn't know what was inhabiting it from making its normal movements. He tried to go through his knowledge about Qi cultivation that Mo Pian had told him beforehand, and then a spark went into his brain as he realized what type of technique was used. It was the same technique that Mo Pian had used on the owl to stop it from attacking them! It was a binding technique, but Bai Feng didn't know that it could get this strong, which made him wonder about Chen Lginxi's actual cultivation level. Mo Pian was also under the technique's radius, so he was also bound together with Bai Feng right now. Bai Feng tried to move his hand, but a sharp voice arrived in his ear: "Stop struggling, Bai Feng. You can't break my binding technique with your cu

    Mo Pian saw Bai Feng's key before, so he could easily recognize it if he saw it again, but while he rummaged through Bai Feng's clothes, he realized that there was no key with him anymore. Could he have dropped it when he fought with Manjo and Bido?Mo Pian knew that Klaus gave him the key, but he couldn't go to the casino to ask for another one with Bai Feng in this situation... he also didn't have his own house, and he wasn't sure where to put him in the restaurant so he could rest comfortably.The tables were quite hard, and the seats weren't long enough for Bai Feng's whole body. If he put more than one, there was also a chance that Bai Feng could fall from the seat if he moved, and while his injuries looked to be healed on the surface due to Chen Lingxi's charity, he wasn't sure how injured Bai Feng actually was, so it was better to be on the safer side."Mo Pian sighed as he was ready to leave, but the middle-aged man from before who sold the meat to Chen

    Bai Feng's body squirmed under the flames, which didn't affect his surroundings, nor did they actually seem like they injured him, but his facial expression told Mo Pian everything he needed to know.Bai Feng was in pain, that was a certain thing, and Mo Pian felt so bad that he couldn't alleviate it anyway. He owed Bai Feng his life after what he did back with Chen Lingxi.He felt a sense of responsibility that he didn't feel before for Bai Feng. After all, He only took him under his wing under Shredder's orders, and at first, he didn't really care much about him.But now, his feelings were genuine. He felt as if Bai Feng was his best friend or even brother. Bai Feng must have likely thought the same about him since he jumped in front of a deadly beam of energy to save his life.Mo Pian tried to approach Bai Feng, but the flames started to billow the closer Mo Pian got to Bai Feng, and his face warped in pain as his tall- and skinny figure started to ben

    Bai Feng had a new uniform on him as he left his house and locked it with the key, Mo Pian had already gone back to the restaurant, and quite a little bit of time passed since he finished his breakthrough.According to Mo Pian, he should be at the 6th level of the Qi apprentice-level now.Bai Feng was rather glad as he was one step closer to meeting his sister once again!He saved 10 red GoGo coins since Chen Lingxi decided to give him the meat, so in the future, he would be able to buy more of the crocodile elf meat until it wouldn't have any effect on him anymore.So he needed to continue his dealer job at the casino. Maybe he would continue to be lucky and get rich people just like his first time.He left his house and made his way to the casino with no problems, as he had the dealer uniform on. No one decided to mess with him even though he was a new face in the sect.He entered the casino and saw Klaus at the entrance desk. He seemed to

    Mo Pian helped Bai Feng into his house, then laid him on the bed. While putting the jade slip and the pouch of money on the nightstand where the other pouch of money that Bai Feng first got sat neatly. Mo Pian compared the sizes of the pouches, but they were around the same size at first glance. It would be understandable for Mo Pian to be curious. After all, he hadn't heard from Bai Feng in almost a week, and from what it seemed, he had been working continuously for that amount of time, so he wondered how much money did he make. His hand inched towards the pouch and opened it before taking a look. His eyes widened as he saw a small mound of red GoGo coins in the pouch. At first glance, he couldn't even count how many of them there were, considering the pouch was special, and it could hold more than it looked like it could handle. The pouch could be held into one's hand, so it wasn't that big. But its interior space could hold around a

  • I Shall Eat The Heavens   Work hard, get paid accordingly and shop! (Part 2)

    Bai Feng's strength was something that a normal wooden door shouldn't be able to withstand. He had superhuman strength as a body cultivator, and he should have been able to dent in the door and rip it from its hinges easily. However, the moment he transformed into a bodybuilder and shot a punch towards the door. He realized that something was amiss. His fist collided with the door, and ripples started to appear in the surroundings. It was almost as if the whole shop was struck instead of the door. The place started to shake as if an earthquake was happening, and Bai Feng's surroundings suddenly tilted to the side! Bai Feng swore under his breath as he started falling. The whole place got tilted to the side, and this made him lose his footing. He tried to grab anything, so he wouldn't fall towards the darkening side of the shop, but the moment he tried to grab one of the pieces of furniture, he realized that they became extremely slippery. He h

  • I Shall Eat The Heavens   Cheeky water spirit

    Bai Feng was running rather quickly as he made his way to the restaurant with Mo Pian on his heels by a few tens of meters.At first, Mo Pian didn't really care about the race, but Bai Feng glanced back at him and stuck his tongue out at him before laughing and making his way even quicker to the restaurant, basically mocking Mo Pian.Mo Pian was rather amused by Bai Feng's attempt at inciting him to run quicker over this race, so he decided to play along.He increased his speed using the Qi in his body, but he didn't give it his all as he knew that he couldn't beat Bai Feng in a race from the characteristics of a body cultivator. But he did so anyway, so he could make Bai Feng happier.Bai Feng looked back at Mo Pian, who was slowly getting closer to him, but the muscles around his legs started to buff up as he increased his speed in an instant. He was still experimenting with his newly refined body, and he felt like this type of playing would help him le

  • I Shall Eat The Heavens   Familiar: Water Spirit

    Bai Feng felt his blood flow quicken under the water spirit's gaze. Was he thinking gibberish? There was no way she was talking about that type of playing. They just met! And his sister told him only married couples got to do that thing. He opened his mouth and asked: "What type of playing are you talking about? What games?" She smiled as she grabbed Bai Feng's hand and said: "Come with me. I want to show you something." Bai Feng didn't know what to make of this response. But he let himself be guided as she dragged him through the water even further down until they reached an underwater cave. There the water spirit helped him inside, and surprisingly there was oxygen in the cave so Bai Feng could stop keeping his breath. He started breathing normally, and as he glanced around, he saw that the cave was decorated with rather expensive pearls and pink-blue furniture. A king-sized bed stood in the middle of the cave. <

    The final battle (End)

    Bai Feng looked down at his hands, he could feel pure power coursing through them, and the bond with the universe that started from his wrist was now exploding through every part of his body. The changes that were made to his whole body weren't describable through words alone. Bai Feng wasn't sure how to feel, but he could sense that he had reached the maximum strength possible that the universe could withstand. The universe itself told him that he can't break through anymore and that he should go and deal with the Mother of Heavens as soon as possible. While he had been reborn, his second heart didn't grow back, whatever the Mother had used to deal that blow to Bai Feng seemed to be permanent. Bai Feng could sense a small hole in the tower that was his foundation, which meant that his power wasn't perfect, but now that he practically reached the same cultivation realm as the Mother of Heaven, they were sharing the power the universe was bestowing upo

    The fourth warehouse (Part 2)

    Bai Feng and Shirbo were teaming up on the fusion while Sharley, Sylph, and Chen Lingxi were fighting with the army of guards. And they were trying to destroy the strengthened formations at the same time, or at least disable them.Bai Feng didn't have time to watch what his friends were doing, so he hoped that all those preparations they made would pay off.This was the penultimate battle!Bai Feng breathed in as he dodged a fiery lightning bolt that came too close for comfort before rotating his hand like a chainsaw and striking forwards, trying to break off the armor from the fusion's body.But a wall of frozen wood appeared in front of the fusion at the last second, making Bai Feng waste his attack on it, then getting his hand stuck in there as metal started to cover his hand, traveling up to his arm and trying to transform him into a metal statue.But that's when Shirbo came and fully destroyed the wall with his claws, then he tried to strike a

    The fourth warehouse (Part 1)

    Bai Feng looked at the unconscious Mu An and sighed as he dragged her back into the warehouse. Shirbo was waiting for his return, arms crossed as the others were continuing their breakthroughs. Before he left to fight Mu An, Bai Feng was able to make them a few dishes to keep them occupied. But now, he could finish using all of the resources that were left and let his friends reach their peak. The only problem was Mu An, Bai Feng didn't know any restraining techniques, and he wasn't sure how long she would be unconscious. He already fought her once, and he didn't want to fight her again. There was also the problem with continuing to the fourth warehouse. Once Mu An awake, even if she was restrained, she would do her best to impede their progress. Maybe they could leave her here where it was relatively safe after they restrained her. Bai Feng hoped that Sharley, Sylph, or even Lingxi would have a technique to bind her here.

    The new Mu An

    Mu An's cold expression was extremely foreign to Bai Feng. He had never seen her look like that at him. She always looked at him with a warm expression on her face, smiling at him, or telling him that everything was going to be alright after the death of their parents. Even after they went to the Lin Yong sect, she had sent out one of her guards to protect him from the shadows. But now, it looked like she had no more care for him. She was icier than absolute frost. Colder than the ice core of the planet. The Mother of Heavens was rather happy to see Bai Feng's complicated look on his face as he looked at his sister. Then she coughed as she glanced at her palm for a second before saying: "You didn't think that I would let her remain herself if she became my apostle, did you?" "The copy did mess with my thoughts a bit, but I really do appreciate her talent. It's one in a few trillion that is born with innate star

    The aid of the universe

    Bai Feng was scrambling his brains for an idea while waiting for anyone to come up with a plan to enter the warehouse. It was their penultimate training location, and if they couldn't open this one, they would surely fail at the fourth warehouse as well. But the doors were extremely sturdy, and they also stopped his regeneration, so Bai Feng wasn't sure what they could do in this situation. He simply wasn't strong enough to blow the doors open. He wasn't sure from what material the doors were made from, but he was sure that even peak Half-God realm cultivators shouldn't be able to break it open. The thing was too damn sturdy, only the Mother of Heavens should be able to break it open or someone equal to her strength. Someone equal to her strength... No individual was that strong, but there was someone equal to her! And Bai Feng had contact with that being! He glanced down at his tattooed wrist, with the help of the univ

    Unleashing absolute strength

    Bai Feng was having quite a bit of trouble fighting 1v2. The Herus fusion, and The lightning apostle fusion were giving him a run for his money.Not like he was taking damage or anything like that, but he was being kept in place as he fought back and forth with them.It was quite annoying not having enough time to penetrate through Herus's defenses before the lightning apostle would blast him with a fused attack of lightning, wind, and water.Then Herus would try to wrestle with him. Of course, even as a fusion, their strength wasn't enough to have a close-quarters fight with Bai Feng.The only reason Bai Feng hadn't finished them off yet was because of their annoying tactics and the fact that they had regenerative capabilities that resembled those of a body cultivator.It looked like their powers were getting quite the boost while they were near The Mother of Heavens' base.Not like it mattered, Bai Feng was getting annoyed as he continued

    Fighting towards the third warehouse

    Bai Feng and his team had the upper hand, but that didn't mean they were winning.The guards and formations weren't meant to defend the warehouse, but to delay the attackers by constantly slowing them down, so the apostles could come and team up with the formation and guards.Bai Feng knew that lingering around here was going to be a bad idea, plus, the original was alerted now, so that meant the third and fourth warehouses were going to be extra defended, and they would have to fight some apostles for sure.He wasn't sure if she was going to descend personally, but there was a chance that could happen as well unless the copy had an ace under its sleeve that she didn't say anything about for a situation like this.Bai Feng liked surprises, and he hoped he would be surprised.Bai Feng whistled, making his team take a formation as they hastily dodged to the side.Bai Feng's muscles became extremely defined as veins popped up on his whole arm w

    The second warehouse and problems

    Their arrival at the second warehouse was the same as at the first. They didn't attract any attention from the guards or formations. They hid perfectly according to the copy's instructions, then they waited for the guards and formations to be turned off.Unfortunately, this time around, it didn't work as perfectly as before.The first problem came with Bai Feng. While he waited, he realized that he was slowly being scanned by something, and if he stayed in the same place, he would surely be found.He didn't understand why that was happening, but he moved away from the area that could be scanned.This triggered a guard to come closer, making it suspicious of what happened.While the guards weren't real people and were made artificially, that didn't mean they didn't have intelligence.They were all pretty smart and understood that something had been near the scanning area of the second warehouse, they didn't see what it was, but they realized

    The resource warehouses (Part 2)

    It didn't take Bai Feng much time to call everyone over.Sylph and Sharley, Lingxi, and with him they would be 4, there was Shirbo as well, making them a total of 5, and Bai Feng invited him over for some food before they left the planet.Bai Feng coughed, making all of the combatants look at him. Shirbo was stuffing his face while the other three were rather serious as they awaited Bai Feng's words.Bai Mu and Sally were doing their best training while Luo Gang and Mo Pian were making more food for Shirbo."As you guys know, I have been contacted by my inside friend, and I have gained the location of the warehouses that we can raid for the resources we need."Bai Feng shared the coordinates with all of them, then he explained how space travel worked.After that, he told them the plan that the copy had created, word for word. He insisted that they should memorize it, and do exactly as it said for their safety.The others found the pla
