Chapter 731: Chapter 545: Whimper Whimper Whimper
Even if children quarrel, they can make up quickly.
Just a moment ago, Duck Egg and the Ginseng Baby were arguing, and almost ended up fighting. But now, they’ve gathered together, with Duck Egg perched on the smooth head of the Ginseng Baby, chattering nonstop.
"Ying ying ying ying..."
Listening to the continuous yinging by his ear, Lin Feng could only wear a helpless expression. freёweɓnovel.com
This yinging had been going on for quite some time, showing no signs of stopping.
Perhaps out of concern for its safety, the Ginseng Baby wanted to please Duck Egg, speaking good things on its behalf.
It’s also possible that having never had friends or anyone to communicate with, now that it suddenly had someone to chat with, the Ginseng Baby’s desire to express itself was entirely unleashed.
Duck Egg further told Lin Feng that the Ginseng Baby was already her good friend and even promised it wouldn’t escape, so Yun Tianqi shouldn’t tie it with a rope.
Unfortunately, Lin Feng didn’t agree.
An Immortal Elixir is priceless, a legendary treasure indeed, and losing it would be too much of a pity.
But unable to withstand Duck Egg’s constant chatter by his ear, Lin Feng finally tied the rope from Yun Tianqi’s wrist to hers.
This made Duck Egg very happy.
The Ginseng Baby was also very happy. ƒrēewebnovel.com
"Alright, time to work."
Upon seeing the Tummy Bag Beast still grumbling, Yue Mingming stepped forward to reprimand it.
"Roar roar roar."
The Tummy Bag Beast growled discontentedly, lying in place without moving.
"Du says it wants to eat one more Spirit Fruit before working."
Duck Egg translated while talking to the Ginseng Baby.
"Haha, Yue Mingming, you can’t handle this."
Dong Yunan laughed, and the others also smiled, finding it amusing.
Initially, the Tummy Bag Beast was quite obedient, doing whatever was asked without any demands.
Now, its appetite is growing, it’s becoming fatter and lazier.
Not only does it make demands, but it also dares to threaten Lin Feng.
If they don’t show it the consequences, it will really act out of control.
"Eat nothing, work for thin air."
Yue Mingming cursed, starting to discipline the Tummy Bag Beast.
A Summoned Beast behaving so disrespectfully, it made the Summoner lose face.
After a bout of discipline, the Tummy Bag Beast finally got down to work quietly.
After watching the fun, Lin Feng said to Hong Yi: "Feel free to eat these Spirit Fruits and Spirit Plants to enhance your strength, it’s important. No need to worry about saving money for us. But you must control Du and Duck Egg, otherwise, they’ll certainly gorge themselves."
Lin Feng said to Hong Yi.
These Spirit Plants are worth at least several billion, and they certainly need to be converted to money later, so they can’t let the Tummy Bag Beast and Little Elf eat aimlessly.
"Got it."
Hong Yi nodded obediently, with a serious expression.
"Need anything else over there?" Lin Feng inquired.
"No shortage, everything for eating and washing is there."
Hong Yi shook her head, indicating that there was no need to worry. She looked a bit hesitant, but finally couldn’t resist asking: "How are my mom and dad and brother doing?"
"They’re okay."
Lin Feng, noticing Hong Yi’s worried look, ruffled her hair gently, as if comforting his little sister.
"Their lives haven’t changed much from before. Your dad still goes to work and comes home to buy groceries and cook."
"Your mom has been home. She got sick half a month ago but has recovered now, just her spirits aren’t as high, and your brother has started physical training recently, working hard."
"They all miss you terribly, but I haven’t told them you’re still alive."
Hong Yi’s eyes reddened, and she nodded repeatedly: "It’s better they don’t know, better they don’t know."
If they knew, no matter how well hidden, there would be a slip-up.
At that time, Hong Tao would certainly use her family as leverage to make her appear.
After learning her family was safe and sound, Hong Yi felt relieved and didn’t ask further.
"Thank you, Brother Feng."
Hong Yi expressed gratitude.
"No need for thanks, no need to be so formal. You’re a member of the alliance and our friend too."
Lin Feng lightly patted Hong Yi’s head.
Hong Yi smiled awkwardly, her smile sunny and bright.
She thoroughly enjoyed being cared for and pampered by others.
She was indeed a strong, cheerful, and laughing girl by nature.
I might have collapsed and left this painful world long ago if not for my resilience, faced with a bleak life and the torment of sleepless nights.
To not worry her family, she always comforted herself, forcing herself to live optimistically, though life before was so bitter, bitter to the point of only managing a forced smile.
Now, although she cannot reunite with her parents and brother, Hong Yi already feels immensely happy.
"It won’t be too long. Once we become Kings, we can try communicating with Hong Tao then."
Noticing Hong Yi’s anticipation and unease, Lin Feng smiled and comforted her.
"Mm."
Hong Yi nodded.
She didn’t ask about how long this ’not too long’ would be or how Lin Feng planned to communicate. She only knew that to hide herself, Lin Feng and the others already risked their lives.
Having been given so much, she has no right to ask for anything more.
"It’s done."
Yue Mingming said, at this point, everything had been moved away. The Tummy Bag Beast was panting, looking utterly drained, occasionally glancing at Yue Mingming and Lin Feng, as if waiting for some kind of reward.
In the past, every time work was done, there would be a reward.
Sadly, this time, no one paid attention to it.
"Hong Yi, this is for eye masks, it can reduce dark circles, and you need to massage after applying. My mom said it works well."
Seeing Hong Yi about to leave, Dong Yunan took out a prepared gift.
"Alright, thank you, Yu Nan."
Hong Yi received the gift gratefully.
The others also came forward to bid farewell to Hong Yi; everyone liked and cared for her greatly.
Hong Yi thanked them repeatedly, feeling a bit sad inside.
She enjoyed the lively atmosphere, disliking this farewell vibe.
But to hide her identity, she couldn’t be part of this operation.
Hong Yi approached the Tummy Bag Beast, gently patting its tummy, soothing it, and then familiarly crawled into its pouch.
"We have to go back too."
Duck Egg, taking the Ginseng Baby, intended to follow Hong Yi back but was stopped by Lin Feng.
Duck Egg looked at Lin Feng, a bit anxious, "Lin Feng, the Ginseng Baby promises not to run away. It wants to go back with me, don’t worry, Hong Yi and I will watch over it, and it definitely won’t escape."
"Ying ying ying."
Though the Ginseng Baby didn’t understand, it still patted its chest, as if vowing solemnly.
"The Ginseng Baby swears it won’t run. If it does and gets caught, it’s okay with being eaten."
Duck Egg translated the Ginseng Baby’s words.
"You can’t go back this time, you’ve got work to do. You can’t keep eating for free."
Lin Feng said with amusement.
"Work?"
Duck Egg was visibly surprised and delighted.
"Hong Yi, I have to work this time, I can’t go back."
Duck Egg flapped its wings, flying in front of Hong Yi, and said.
When Hong Yi realized Duck Egg couldn’t go back, she looked clearly disappointed. Without Duck Egg, her already dull days would become even more boring. However, she held back her sadness, waved a hand at Duck Egg, and encouraged, "Then you should work hard, okay?"
"Got it, I’ll definitely work hard."
She absolutely wouldn’t eat for nothing.
As Yue Mingming entered the Demon Transformation state, with the flickering light of the Space Gate, the Tummy Bag Beast walked inside and soon disappeared.
With Hong Yi gone, the others also left the cave.
"Let’s go."
Lin Feng said, and following the operation of the Fish Dragon Transformation, a pair of purple Dragon Wings unfolded on his back.
The first destination was smoothly concluded.
They needed to head to the second destination.
