Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Second brother, I'm fine."

Despite Xia Zhenhu's concern, Leng Ying remained unmoved and spoke in a cold tone.

"Could it be because of Brother Lu...!"

Upon seeing this, even the usually slow-witted Xia Zhenhu reacted and looked at Lu Feng, who was chatting and laughing with Cao Keying, with a mix of emotions on his face.

Although Leng Ying had declined his advances several times in the past, he always regarded him as an elder brother, and the two had always been as close as siblings, never growing distant from each other.

Therefore, in Xia Zhenhu's heart, he always believed that he still had a sliver of a chance!

However, seeing Leng Ying's attitude and reaction to Lu Feng, Xia Zhenhu finally realized that all of this was just his own fantasy, and that the former already had someone else in his heart!

"Hehe, you are truly remarkable. I never expected that even a ruthless person like my aunt couldn't resist your 'sweet talk.' I am truly impressed..."

Just as Lu Feng was flattering Cao Keying with a fawning expression, he suddenly heard a man's voice with a sigh in his ear.

Swish!

The next moment, Duan Lang leaped up and landed to Lu Feng's left, while winking at the latter.

"Auntie?"

In response to Duan Lang's clandestine telepathic message, Lu Feng raised an eyebrow and sized him up. "What do you mean by that, fellow Daoist?"

The other person was dressed in a white robe and had a delicate face, but his smile was somewhat lewd, like a sinister villain with a belly full of evil smiles, which made Lu Feng wary.

"Hehe, please don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions."

Noticing Lu Feng's wary gaze, Duan Lang grinned again, then put his hand on Lu Feng's shoulder and lowered his voice, "Honestly, there aren't many people who can satisfy my aunt's fiery temper, let alone strange men. You are truly an exception among exceptions!"

"See Ren Lingyun next to you? My aunt once chased him for eight blocks with a knife, forcing him to hide. He was in a truly pathetic state..."

Duan Lang looked at him with a playful expression and spoke in a teasing tone.

"Wait a minute! You mean Aunt Cao... uh, Senior Cao is your aunt?"

Lu Feng interrupted the other party again, looking puzzled.

"Nonsense, what else did you think she was? She's my mom's thirteenth sister."

"No way, this is fucking possible...!"

"There's nothing I can do! Although I'm very reluctant to admit it, reality is just that cruel."

Duan Lang rolled his eyes at Lu Feng, then spread his hands outwards, "Oh right, I almost forgot to introduce you. The big dark-faced guy next to me is called Baturu. He's a southern barbarian from the Batu tribe, and also one of my aunt's henchmen..."

"Speaking of Baturu, although his strength and cultivation are not bad, he is slightly inferior to me, barely ranking around tenth in the East Academy..."

After speaking, Duan Lang couldn't resist making a few sarcastic remarks about Baturu next to him, as if he could never forget to compete with him.

"One's a henchman, the other's nephew?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng's lips twitched slightly, and his expression became increasingly strange.

There's no way around it, the relationships between these people are just too complicated. If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd wandered onto the wrong movie set!

"Duan Lang, what are you whispering about again? Hurry up and let go of Junior Brother Lu Feng! If you hurt even a hair on his head, don't blame me for being ruthless...!"

Seeing Duan Lang putting his arm around Lu Feng and whispering to him, Cao Keying frowned and immediately shouted coldly.

"It's nothing, nothing! I was just chatting casually with this Fellow Daoist Lu."

Seeing that Cao Keying was about to lose her temper again, Duan Lang quickly stopped and stood up. However, before leaving, he lowered his voice and gave Lu Feng a playful smile, "Hehe, Fellow Daoist Lu... oh no, my future uncle-in-law."

"You'll have to work harder in the future, because my aunt isn't someone you can easily win over..."

"My future aunt's husband?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng was also completely dumbfounded.

Why is he suddenly having trouble understanding what the other person is saying?

"Damn, does this kid think I'm currying favor with Cao Keying for some other purpose?"

As if suddenly remembering something, Lu Feng's lips twitched slightly, and his expression became even more strange.

As the saying goes, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy, and his current attempt to please Cao Keying is just that—a matter of social etiquette.

But Lu Feng never expected that Duan Lang, this brilliant man, could misunderstand such a simple matter of human relationships. He was simply a genius!

"By the way, Junior Brother Lu, where are the other disciples of Falling Star Academy besides you?"

"Didn't you encounter anyone else along the way?"

Ignoring Duan Lang, Cao Keying looked at Lu Feng again, her tone now somewhat puzzled.

Because, in the month or so since she entered the Starfall Secret Realm, she had hardly seen any other disciples of the Falling Star Academy, except for Lu Feng and Ren Lingyun who arrived late.

"Senior Sister Cao, your use of the word 'also' is very precise. To be more precise, right now, inside and outside Falling Star Valley, and even in the entire Starfall Secret Realm, there are probably no other living people besides us..."

Nodding as well, Lu Feng spread his hands outwards, his tone somewhat meaningful.

"What did you say?!"

Seemingly sensing the implication in Lu Feng's words, Cao Keying's pretty face first froze slightly, then suddenly became serious, "Junior Brother Lu Feng, could it be that you mean...?"

"Miss Cao, the thing is, just now, Brother Lu and I discovered some things at the entrance of Falling Star Valley..."

"So noisy!"

Just as Ren Lingyun was about to explain, Cao Keying interrupted him coldly, glaring at him angrily, "Ren Lingyun, I was asking about Junior Brother Lu Feng, not you! Why are you interrupting me if I'm not asking?"

"Uh...sorry!"

Faced with Cao Keying's resentful glare, Ren Lingyun looked embarrassed and immediately fell silent.

After all, the other party had a deep misunderstanding of him in the past, and the misunderstanding has not yet been cleared up. Naturally, he did not want to anger Cao Keying again, lest he add fuel to the fire!
