Yi Feng smiled bitterly.
However, after knowing the dangers within this mountain, Yi Feng decided to wait in place. He also intended to wait until Yun Yaoyao's cultivation level recovered before leaving the mountain together.
Otherwise, given their current condition, let alone encountering that Ox Demon, even if they met a slightly stronger demonic beast, it would be difficult to deal with.
Time slowly passed...
The man and woman spent their days together in this mountain cave.
Every day, Yun Yaoyao would sit in meditation and cultivate, attempting to break through the seals in her body.
Meanwhile, Yi Feng was responsible for taking care of their daily food and water, busying himself merrily.
"Let's chat,"
One day, as Yi Feng prepared to head out again, he hesitated for a moment before squatting in front of Yun Yaoyao and said.
"Go ahead,"
Yun Yaoyao opened her beautiful eyes and looked at Yi Feng.
"I feel like I'm at a loss here. You saved me once, but I've saved you several times. I still have to be responsible for your meals every day. Every time I step out, I'm worried sick, afraid of running into demonic beasts." Yi Feng frowned and said.
"Is a cultivator's favor not enough for you?" Yun Yaoyao's eyes shimmered as she asked back.
"Bah, what good is your favor to me? It's all empty talk." Yi Feng rolled his eyes at Yun Yaoyao and said, "Give me something substantial."
"What do you want that's substantial?" Yun Yaoyao asked.
"I wanted to try some items that you cultivators use, but I probably can't utilize them anyway. So just give me some gold coins!" Yi Feng grinned and said, "Give me 1.8 million. I definitely won't think it's too much."
Yun Yaoyao looked at Yi Feng with a complex expression.
She then said, "Do you know that a cultivator's favor is something that money can't buy? 1.8 million gold coins may seem like a lot, but it's nothing to us cultivators. So are you really asking for gold coins instead of needing my favor?"
"Yes, I want the gold coins."
Yi Feng said with a big smile on his face.
He thought that with this sum of gold coins, he could finally replenish what he spent on Nansha.
When he returns, he can also renovate his martial arts school and replace that reclining chair in the yard. If he still has spare money left, he can hire a maid. This life would be wonderful.
"Alright."
Yun Yaoyao nodded and said, "I can give you 1 million gold coins, but I don't have it on me right now. We'll have to go out to get it."
"That's fine. Write me an IOU,"
Yi Feng gleefully said. He then took out paper and a pen.
"I, Yun Yaoyao, owe Yi Feng 1 million gold coins. Signature for proof."
Yi Feng wrote on the paper and placed it in front of Yun Yaoyao with a smile. "Here, sign it."
Yun Yaoyao's expression changed imperceptibly.
"Fine."
Seeing Yi Feng's unrelenting appearance, she gritted her teeth and nodded. Under Yi Feng's gaze, she signed her name.
"Nice."
Yi Feng carefully stored the IOU, tucking it into his clothes. He didn't forget to pat it contentedly.
After putting away the IOU, Yi Feng left with Yun Yaoyao's sword to look for food.
However, all he could find were some wild fruits. He supplemented them with the specialty fruits he brought along, as he was once scared off by two wild beasts when he tried to barbecue.
However, right after Yi Feng stepped out of the cave, Yun Yaoyao's expression inside changed.
Although she no longer had any cultivation level, her keen senses could still detect several demonic beasts not far from the cave.
Furthermore, these demonic beasts were quite strong.
This made her extremely worried.
Because from the looks of it, Yi Feng who went out would inevitably encounter these demonic beasts.
"What should I do?"
As her beautiful eyes flickered, with her cultivation completely sealed and her external injuries still unhealed, even walking was somewhat strenuous for her, let alone going to rescue Yi Feng.
Although this mortal annoyed her at times, she didn't dislike him.
But just as she was at a loss, she suddenly noticed that the auras of those demonic beasts had disappeared.
"Could they have left?"
"Was Yi Feng already..."
Thinking of this, her heart panicked.
Despite her unhealed injuries, she still forcibly supported her body and walked towards the cave entrance.
But when she just reached the entrance, she saw Yi Feng carrying a sword, cursing as he walked back: "Damn pigs daring to ambush me. Do they think I'm a vegetarian? I'm someone who has practiced martial arts too."
"You're not dead?"
Seeing Yi Feng safe and sound, Yun Yaoyao was dumbfounded.
"What do you mean?"
"Were you hoping I'd die?"
"Are all women this vicious?"
Yi Feng frowned at Yun Yaoyao and asked.
"That's not what I meant." Yun Yaoyao quickly explained, "I sensed the demonic beasts' auras outside the cave, so I thought you were..."
"The demonic beasts' auras?"
Yi Feng's expression changed in fright. He immediately took a step next to Yun Yaoyao and asked vigilantly, "Don't scare me."
"Don't worry, their auras have disappeared already, so they should have left." Yun Yaoyao said. She then looked at Yi Feng again and asked, "But you really didn't run into them earlier?"
"No. I did kill a few arrogant little beasts though." Yi Feng said.
Yun Yaoyao was incredulous.
That didn't make sense.
Based on the strength that those demonic beasts exuded earlier, it was impossible for them to not notice Yi Feng outside the cave.
Since they definitely could discover Yi Feng, but didn't attack him and instead directly left, what was the implication?
"Are you sure you didn't see them?" Yun Yaoyao asked again.
"Really didn't." Yi Feng shook his head. He suddenly recalled something and hurriedly said, "The demonic beasts you mentioned, they can't be the few beasts I killed right?"
Upon hearing this.
Frost covered Yun Yaoyao's face.
Based on their aura, those demonic beasts were at least at the Demon Lord level. How could they possibly be killed by an ordinary mortal like you?
"You're overthinking it."
She glanced at Yi Feng before walking back into the cave again.
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
