36 Arrived At Hong City

They traveled for two days before arrived at Hong City. One of the big cities in Yi State where they were now. Hong City very bustling with many people, there were many merchants on the side of the road who sold many things. Xiao Feng told his wife and little sister, "It's better to mask with veil your appearances before entering the city."

Ye Qiuyue nodded her head and took the veil from her own storage ring then used it. Xiao Mei, on the other hand, asked him, "Why?"

Xiao Feng flicked her forehead lightly and told the reason, "Two of you truly beautiful but we didn't have any protection from our clan anymore so, there will be annoying people come closer to you if you don't hide it."

Xiao Mei convinced then also wore the veil like Ye Qiuyue before entering the city. Xiao Feng then circled his left hand around Ye Qiuyue waist and used his right hand to hold Xiao Mei hand to declare his possession, after all, they're still several curious people too.

Ye Qiuyue smiled brightly on Xiao Feng action but her smile had been completely hidden with her veil.

The moment Xiao Feng and his family enter the city, they didn't attract men gazes but women gaze instead. Xiao Feng who has otherworldly handsomeness truly become a magnet to those women. Xiao Feng eyes twitched after he found it. He began to wonder to use masks too, but it will be too suspicious.

In the end, he sighed helplessly look around for a shop to sell several beast core and herb they found on the way. They got two gold coins in the exchange.

Xiao Mei tells Xiao Feng with the most pitiful look she can make, "Big brother, I am hungry." but her face not visible because of the veil.

"Alright." then they ventured the city before found a restaurant and decided to dine in inside.

Xiao Feng and his family choose to sit down in the corner. They ordered several dishes and waiting for what they ordered come. Xiao Feng then keeps silent before enhance his hearing to his surroundings.

"Have you heard, the crown prince of Xia Empire already married with fairy Zun from Star Sect." one people gossiped.

....

.....

...

Then Xiao Feng found the information he needed from gossip among them. In summary, in the Yi State, there was one first-rate sect, three second-rate sects, and twenty third-rate sects. Third rate sect, led by Foundation Stage expert, Second rate sect led by Golden Core Stage expert while First Rate sect led by Nascent soul stage expert. The royal family of this continent has an ancestor at Nirvana stage protecting the empires.

Xiao began to wonder that they landed in the lowest place in the world. Because of the highest expert within the continent only Nirvana Stage. Ye Qiuyue just closed her eyes and recalled what she had through after killing robbers in the forest and try to overcome it. Xiao Feng on her side said gently, "Yue'er, don't strain yourself with those memories."

"No, I must overcome it. After all, we live in a jungle world where the strong eat the weak." Ye Qiuyue determined to overcome her trauma about killing.

Xiao Feng sighed then glanced to Xiao Mei, "little Mei, is there anything wrong?"

"Big brother, I miss mother and father." Xiao Mei eyes watering.

"It's alright, at most we just spend several hundred years. Big brother promised !" Xiao Feng managed calmed her down before sobbed again.

Xiao Mei silent afterward. Ye Qiuyue then opened her eyes before dragged her chair closer to Xiao Mei before hugging her silently. Xiao Mei startled before crying in Ye Qiuyue embraces. Xiao Feng looked at this scene suddenly he recalled his late family together with Ye Qiuyue. They had a cute daughter at their side. He comes back to his senses after the dish they ordered come.

Xiao Feng then tells them who was still in their own world. "Alright, the dish already come. Its time to eat."

Ye Qiuyue and Xiao Mei then began digging in their ordered dish. Before they chatted privately, they excluded Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng looked at them silently and though, "My wife has changed." smiled but didn't interrupt before gathering information again by eavesdropping.

"Have you heard, one week from now there will be an auction of an unknown artifact, even the auctioneer didn't know what rank it was !" One of the customers said to his side.

Xiao Feng then began thinking before decided to gather money for that. Who knows he would hit jackpot to get a teleportation artifact in the third day in this world.

He thought to visit the Alchemist guild in this city, to get badge qualification and gain money in fast speed according to the memory he got from the robber leader he killed. Sometimes He wondered, why would just little robber had too much information.

Becoming alchemist truly job that made someone rich faster. In this continent alchemist was very scarce unlike in his original world because to inhabitant in this world violent was number one. That was also the reason why so many thugs everywhere.

"Feng, the sun already set. will we go search for an inn?" Ye Qiuyue proposed which made Xiao Feng woke up from his deep thinking.

"Alright, We will decide what about tomorrow plan after got an inn to stay." Xiao Feng replied.

Xiao Feng and his family then go out of the restaurant and search for the best inn. He feels someone began tailing them but he decided to ignore it for a while. After several times asking they found the inn and rent one room instead of two because of the pressure from his wife and little sister under excuses more safe to be together in one place.

"Are the two of them also sense it?" Xiao Feng though himself.

After entering their room, he didn't expect the bed to be so wide. Ye Qiuyue and Xiao Mei then took off their veil and their outer robe. Xiao Feng also took off his outer robe before glanced at the window while squinting his eyes. He feels someone tailing them before now it seems that the person didn't have any bad intentions because he didn't sense killing intent.

"Yue'er, little Mei, you can sleep first. I will meditate. Tomorrow we will go to alchemist guild." Xiao Feng then lay down a special barrier that he imposed one to another. The outer one was to protect them as for the second one for an alarm to him. Usually, not many mortals knew about this kind of barrier, so he can be assured for a while.

Ye Qiuyue and Xiao Mei glanced each other, "Why?" Xiao Mei asked curiously.

"I heard from someone in the restaurant earlier, there is unknown artifact which they didn't know the rank. I suspect that was the artifact that brought us here. That's why I will start gathering money to buy that thing if that true." Xiao Feng explained his reason.

"Am I needed to gathering money as well? I think I can concocting rank one pill right now." Xiao Mei proposed her idea.

"No, It will too stand out for you if you do. It's better to be low key for a while until we were strong enough without hiding. Trust me, let big brother do it." Xiao Feng rejected her idea and patted her head.

Xiao Mei nodded before she fell asleep under Ye Qiuyue embraces. Xiao Feng looked at them smiled and thought determinedly, "Let me carry the burden for us to come back. Wife, little sister you can just live without worry about anything else."

Xiao Feng then took out Top Grade divine stone with a complicated expression. "Well, I planned to use this after reached Immortal Realm in qi cultivation and just use it for body cultivation but..." He sighed then began absorbed and refine it very fast.

In just one night, Xiao Feng cultivation rose to Golden Core Stage level two. It's all thanks to the dense divine qi inside that made him easier to breakthrough without any side effect in his foundation. He found that it like didn't decrease at all but he calculated it comparable to a low-grade divine stone which astonished him. He began examining his own dantian and calculated its contained ten times larger then normal spiritual qi normal golden core can be stored but it's still strange though no matter he thinks, one low-grade divine stone comparable to entire spiritual qi of newly ascended Immortal! But then again, he noticed a little crack in his golden core if he fully covered his golden core with his divine awareness. "Better to cultivate slowly, if not the consequences would be dire.", Before he moved his conscious to another place, he mended the crack in an hour.

He nodded his head then moved his conscious to his another golden core which located in Soul Lake to be precise in the center of Supreme Law array. His mouth twitched after knowing all excess energy gone to. "It seems if I want to make another breakthrough, I must feed this glutton Golden core. I wonder what use my second golden core. I hope it not disappointing." He smiled bitterly. Xiao Feng was aware that because he had two Golden Core that made his progress very slow despite his heaven-defying talent than those who cultivated in the Divine Realm.

After the breakthroughs, Xiao Feng remembered after full one year, he hadn't checked Heaven Pagoda if there were any changes. He used his intention to enter it. Now, not only his conscious entered but his body as well. Ye Qiuyue opened her eyes, sensed Xiao Feng suddenly gone but because she still embraced Xiao Mei so she didn't get a nightmare in her dream she just released her spiritual awareness. She still found nothing. She frowned but decided to trust what Xiao Feng do before she dumbfounded Xiao Feng suddenly pop out beside her bed.

Xiao Feng then gazed at her, smiled while whispered to her, "I will tell you in the morning."

Ye Qiuyue nodded her head. She began closed her eyes again. Xiao Feng then stood up and decided to sleep behind her back and embraced her and little sister within his arm.

In the morning, he spread his divine awareness. His awareness was called divine because his soul was at Void God so mortal or immortal wouldn't notice it. "It seems the one who follows us already gone." He sighed relieve.

Ye Qiuyue then asked, "Then what happened last night?"

Xiao Feng glanced at Xiao Mei. Xiao Mei still sleeping because she still exhausted from all accidents in the last three days. Then he decided to not bother his little sister for a while.

"Actually, I have personal space that living beings can live inside. At first, it only allowed conscious to enter but now living being too. I think to let two of you live there for a while and train yourself." Xiao Feng told her what was inside too afterward.

Ye Qiuyu nodded her head. "I agree to your idea. If there are just two of us here, I would refuse it thought."

Xiao Feng then smiled and kissed her forehead, "Alright, it's better to wake up little Mei. If she there, maybe she will like it." Then Xiao Feng processed to wake up Xiao Mei.
