Free Web NovelChapter 863: Chapter 885-886: Nascent Soul Leaving the Body
Chu Lin quickly burrowed through the soil layer and swiftly left Zhang Lijuan’s room, only exhaling in relief once he emerged from the earth. Thankfully, his quick reaction saved him from being caught in the act.
"Lin Feng, you really never change. I truly have no words for you. So, having seen Zhang Lijuan now, do you regret it? Men are truly all the same," Sword Spirit remarked at this moment.
"You’ve been here the whole time? I thought you were asleep! But I’m a good person; otherwise, you wouldn’t have fallen for me. Sister Yue’Er, sure, Zhang Lijuan is quite beautiful, but she’s still a bit lacking compared to you. You’re the goddess in my heart," Chu Lin blurted with a slick tongue.
"You’ve never been serious in your life. That woman, having received some inheritance from the Immortal Realm, is destined to be extraordinary. You need to be more inconspicuous. If anyone with bad intentions discovers your situation, it could lead to disaster," Sword Spirit warned.
"What do you mean? Could there be experts at the Seventh Layer of the Venerable Martial Realm here in the Netherworld? Besides, I’m leaving here soon, so there should be no problem. I’ve actually always kept a low profile," Chu Linfeng replied.
"This world likely has more soul bodies from the Immortal Realm than just me and the Lonely Demon Venerable. Some soul bodies are capable of possession, and although they’re much weaker than their original strength, their attack power is terrifyingly strong. It’s something to be vigilant about," Sword Spirit stated.
Chu Linfeng instantly understood the gravity of the situation. "It looks like I’ll have to be cautious everywhere in the future. Zhang Lijuan has too many secrets; she might even be an expert who has possessed a soul body. I need to be on guard," Chu Linfeng said.
At that moment, Zhang Lijuan suddenly opened the door, and upon seeing Chu Linfeng standing quietly not far away, she felt strange and asked, "Lin Feng, what are you doing outside my door? Are you planning to do something disreputable?"
Zhang Lijuan’s words clearly registered her anger and suspicion towards him. Chu Linfeng immediately grinned and said, "I wandered here by accident and stopped because something came to mind. Why did you come out? Could it be that you missed me?"
"Not you?" Zhang Lijuan looked at Chu Linfeng suspiciously, her eyes fixed directly on him.
Chu Linfeng quickly turned his head aside. This sneaky girl was preparing to use Mind Reading Art on him. "Hey, why do you always like using Mind Reading Art? Aren’t you afraid I’ll use the Power of Soul to strike back and severely hurt you? Not me? What do you mean by that, is something up, or do you think I did something to you?"
"If it’s not you, then forget it. But you actually know the secret of my Mind Reading Art, Chu Linfeng, you’re indeed unusual. See you tomorrow!" Zhang Lijuan knew that continuing the conversation wouldn’t yield results, yet she was about ninety percent sure it was that guy, but she couldn’t find evidence. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
"Why not chat with me for a while? Build some rapport?" Chu Linfeng said with a smile. Although he couldn’t be with Zhang Lijuan, he could still enjoy some advantages. Refusing to with a lady whose looks rivaled Sword Spirit’s would just be foolish.
"Get lost! Who wants to build rapport with you!" Zhang Lijuan spoke and then immediately entered the house, slamming the door shut, leaving Chu Linfeng stunned, "Nice figure! Nice looks!" Chu Linfeng shouted loudly before quickly darting back into his own room.
Inside, Zhang Lijuan stomped her feet in anger. From Chu Linfeng’s last words, she could confirm that the person who had peeked at her earlier was indeed this scoundrel. His blatant act of peeking at her during her bath left her speechless.
"Chu Linfeng, you’ll pay for your actions today. If a man who sees my face can’t become mine, he must become a dead man. You’re forcing my hand," Zhang Lijuan fumed.
Back in his room, Chu Linfeng didn’t go to sleep since sleeping had become inconsequential to him. Even if he absorbed Star Stones to break through the realm, a single night wouldn’t make much difference. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
With a thought, he brought out the Poison King’s storage ring. Upon peeking inside with his Divine Sense, Chu Linfeng was taken aback. The ring was packed with various items: Nether Stones, Netherworld Purple Orchids, various poisons, and some bizarre plants — a multitude of items that Chu Linfeng couldn’t identify.
There were approximately over ten million Nether Stones, indicating a vast wealth, though they weren’t of much use to Chu Linfeng and could be given to Zhang Lijuan later. However, having over thirty Netherworld Purple Orchids made Chu Linfeng genuinely happy. It was all thanks to Sword Spirit’s reminder; otherwise, he would’ve missed out on these thirty plus Humorous Purple Orchids.
Chu Linfeng didn’t recognize the poisons and plants, but if Sword Spirit said they were useful, they must be. Just as he was about to put the storage ring back, Sword Spirit suddenly said, "Lin Feng, your luck is quite good this time. There are several extremely rare Poisonous Grasses in this Poison King’s storage ring. Selling them in the Immortal Realm could fetch a good price."
"Is there really such a great opportunity? How much Immortal Stone do you think they’re worth?" Chu Linfeng, knowing that Immortal stone is the currency in the Immortal Realm just like Star Stone in Canglan Ancient Land and Nether Stone in the Netherworld, asked.
"Around a couple hundred Immortal Stones. These Immortal Stones could be the salary for ordinary immortals for decades. You should know better. If not for me, you’d miss this chance," Sword Spirit said.
"I’m your future man. If you don’t help me, who will you help? The stronger and wealthier I become, the more face you’ll have. By then, your father won’t oppose us either," Chu Linfeng stated.
