Chapter 1210: Chapter 1109: Gift
The beauty of the things forged from the Goblin Core is beyond words, Tang Feng couldn’t describe it. He never expected that the jade pendants he crafted would shimmer with nine-colored radiance, all concealed within the pendants.
When attacked, these lights would be released, thus ensuring the safety of all the women.
It could absolutely be considered a Divine Artifact, and not just an ordinary one. Over time, it would continue to grow and eventually become an existence akin to an Innate Spiritual Treasure, incomparable to anything before.
Tang Feng was quite satisfied. As he walked out of the room, Feng Hanying immediately rushed into his arms. Since those three days, nothing else could occupy her heart.
Her life was saved by Tang Feng, so to her, he was her savior.
There was no issue with this logic. To outsiders, Feng Hanying was undoubtedly the same as before. However, in front of the man she was closest to, she didn’t need any defenses.
She only worried that Tang Feng wouldn’t want her because she knew very well that in his heart, he certainly wasn’t in love with her. Love requires the passage of time to evolve from a seedling to something profound, revealing true intentions over time.
Whether short-lived affection could last long was a problem that required calm consideration. Everyone has impulses and fantasies, but reality would shatter those.
Feng Hanying wasn’t aware of these, yet she cherished such opportunities. After all, she was the one who would suffer losses, so why not try hard to win the favor of the man before her?
She told him her thoughts simply: as long as he accompanied her often, her mood would be joyful.
Tang Feng wasn’t a cold-blooded animal, nor was he heartless. Indeed, he felt guilty towards Feng Hanying, but he had no romantic love; however, that didn’t conflict with his enjoyment of being with her.
Time is the best mediator, and he would try to like her. After all, having taken someone, he ought to be responsible; otherwise, the world would fall apart.
For instance, on Earth, the majority of men are irresponsible. To them, relationships are only about sleeping and having fun. Responsibility doesn’t exist. Have a stroll through the hospital, and you’ll see someone eventually take the blame. If you don’t act fast, you’ll end up with someone else’s leftovers and problems.
Moreover, these problems would be stubbornly arrogant until the end.
No car, no house, no money, yet still expecting others to cling onto you—impossible.
Such things only exist in fantasy.
A woman like Feng Hanying would be hard to find on Earth.
Those women could be so strong-willed they’d make men feel inferior. At most, after the fact, you’d hear them say, "It’s fine, just pretend I got bitten by an ant, what can you do about it?"
Of course, good girls still exist, but the values have changed. Women who remain pure can hardly make it through high school, let alone university.
A Goddess, visible during the day, but at night, even a Goddess needs to sleep.
It’s just a matter of who gets such a chance.
Typically, the chance for such women to sleep beside a loser is less than zero.
Reality is just that cruel.
And women who’ve been with countless men seem to be the Goddesses in many men’s hearts. If that’s not self-degradation, then what is?
It’s an insurmountable barrier; thinking about overcoming it is as hard as ascending to the heavens.
By comparison, women in the Cultivation World are much more lovable.
Once they fall in love, they’re at least not promiscuous. Even if dumped, they might spend their lives alone. Marrying another man isn’t something they can accept.
On Earth, after one, then another, as they say, "I’m a well, whoever I like can fetch water."
It’s their freedom, but it’s the sorrow of the male compatriots.
Once thoughts are tainted, it’s extremely hard to reshape them.
And once someone devalues themselves, everything will change.
Love is a battlefield, and marriage is a tomb.
Therefore, Tang Feng generally doesn’t marry.
A man’s affliction is the thought that whatever he fancies should become his own.
And he absolutely doesn’t want his own to be tainted by others, even if it’s discarded, he still feels this way.
Equality among men—it doesn’t exist.
The more women around a man, the more desirable he appears; the more men around a woman, the implications need not be elaborated on.
A man’s life is divided into three parts: one part is health, two parts are women, and another is wealth and power.
Having a healthy body is the foundation to enjoying women, wealth, and power.
If Tang Feng achieves nothing, if he doesn’t return to the Immortal Realm or enter the Dragon’s Secret Realm, then Feng Hanying would undoubtedly become someone else’s woman.
Honestly, even though he knew things would happen, he was extremely glad that history didn’t change. Should there be any deviation, he knows what he would lose.
Time waits for no one, and he didn’t realize he had so many debts of gratitude to repay.
After putting the jade pendant on Feng Hanying, she was instantly moved.
What followed, naturally, was that she served him well.
Tang Feng felt captivated by this woman. Truly, when a woman gives up everything, a man should just love her as hard as he can, let her feel it.
Unfortunately, their time together was short-lived, as just two days later, a Young Emperor Realm Immortal found their place.
Upon seeing the villa, they all curiously approached, but upon discovering it was inhabited, they quickly left.
Daring to linger in such a place already indicated something unusual.
These were all clever people, thus they subsequently entered the canyon.
Tang Feng knew these entrants would find something, but the most important Dragon Soul had already been taken by him.
Yet, some wandering Dragon Souls in the canyon would still satisfy them.
Luck wasn’t for everyone; a slaughter was inevitable.
Half a day later, several Emperor Realm experts stumbled out of the canyon.
A few Emperor Realm masters followed behind them.
Seeing the situation, the people ahead could only dash towards the villa.
Once inside, they realized they were completely immobilized, which startled them awake. Anyone who lived here wasn’t ordinary.
However, they felt their lives might be spared.
At this moment, the Emperor Realm masters at the door stopped.
Upon seeing the three inside immobilized, they immediately realized the situation. After exchanging glances, they flew back into the canyon.
Clever people know how to choose. If they went into the villa, they’d have little chance of survival.
Tang Feng and Feng Hanying came out.
The three Emperor Realm Immortals’ eyes widened upon seeing Feng Hanying, as they couldn’t believe it—wasn’t she with the South Emperor and North Emperor?
Who is this person?
"Immortal Feng, we didn’t intend to intrude. Can you first restore our freedom?" one said.
Feng Hanying looked at Tang Feng and nodded.
The Three Emperors had always been courteous to Feng Hanying and hadn’t resorted to underhanded means, so she agreed.
Tang Feng released their restraints, and the three slumped onto the ground, exhausted.
"What’s going on with you three?"
"It’s a long story. The Eastern Emperor and the Western Emperor have allied to start hunting us Emperor Realm Immortals. Quite a number have fallen already."
"It’s not surprising. You should have anticipated this possibility before coming in. You simply were a step slower than them." Feng Hanying, having gone through such events herself, was not startled. However, once outside, if those people took action, the entire Immortal Realm would be in an uproar. Once the Emperor Realm experts got back outside, their overall strength would not be much weaker.
A good show would ensue if a fight broke out.
