This golden creature was in a long slumber because it had reached the five-thousand-year growth stage and needed to slumber for several hundred years to emerge from its infancy.
But at this moment, a twist of fate startled it awake, causing it to wake up somewhat bewildered.
It shook its big head and made a clear, female voice:
"What happened? Why do I feel that something beneficial to me has been born? And the fate of the soul beasts has inexplicably increased a lot."
Following its inexplicable senses, the golden creature first looked in the direction of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and then in the direction of Chen Feng and the others.
"The guidance given by fate is so confusing. The same thing has two different sources, but both are of great importance to me."
It sensed carefully for a while, a hint of hesitation appearing on its face, but it quickly became determined and let out a low growl.
A moment later, a deep, hoarse voice rang out.
"Auspicious beast, aren't you asleep? Why do you call me?"
"Di Tian, I am going to the human world," the golden creature, known as the auspicious beast, said succinctly.
"What? No way!" Di Tian refused without hesitation.
But the auspicious beast's next words silenced him: "This is the guidance that fate has given me."
"...What exactly happened?" Di Tian asked after a moment of silence.
"I sense that something beneficial to me is being created in the human world, but I don't know exactly what it is yet. I must go and see," the auspicious beast replied.
"Can't you ask other soul beasts to go for you? It seems that a 100,000-year-old soul beast chose to transform into a human before."
"No one else can help me with this; only I can feel the guidance of fate."
"But how are you going to get there? You only have five thousand years of cultivation; you can't even become a Transformation Human." Di Tian's deep voice rang out.
"If I can get the Lord's help, I can become human. Can you help me awaken the Lord? Di Tian, this matter is really important," the auspicious beast said earnestly.
No sooner had it finished speaking than a clear, cold, and authoritative voice rang out.
"I also sensed the previous anomalies; the Star Dou Great Forest suddenly became much more active."
Along with the sound, a pair of illusory purple dragon eyes also appeared.
"My lord." Upon seeing those dragon eyes, both the auspicious beast and Di Tian's voices became much more respectful.
The purple dragon's eyes turned to the auspicious beast, and its clear, cold voice rang out once more:
"I can help you transform into a human or a mythical beast, but forcibly transforming you into a human will cause you to lose something. Are you willing?"
"What will we lose?" the auspicious beast asked cautiously.
"I'm afraid you can no longer retain your light and fire attributes," the cold voice replied.
"Wouldn't that auspicious beast be very fragile? What if it encounters danger?" Di Tian said worriedly.
"Therefore, I will seal the Golden Dragon Spear into the body of the auspicious beast, using the Golden Dragon Spear as a framework to help her transform. This should be able to make up for her shortcomings, at least ensuring that her martial soul will not be inherently deficient after transformation."
"She can't use the Golden Dragon Spear directly yet, so this is the only way. When she grows to a certain level, she'll be able to draw the Golden Dragon Spear out as a weapon herself, and then self-defense won't be a problem," the cold and authoritative voice said.
Di Tian wanted to say something more, but the auspicious beast had already agreed to the plan.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Lord."
Having no other option, Di Tian could only offer his advice:
"My lord, using this level of power might worsen your injuries."
"It's alright. My injury won't heal in a short time. I might as well use my strength to do something useful."
As soon as he finished speaking, countless silver rays of light rose from the ground and then entered the body of the auspicious beast, turning it into a silvery-white ball of light.
Then, a golden spear emerged from the ground, transforming into a beam of golden light that poured into the silver-white light cluster.
The gold and silver colors blended together and quickly transformed into an egg about half a person's height, entirely silver-white with gold patterns.
......
At this time, Chen Feng and his rested companions had already embarked on their journey back to the academy.
Everyone chatted and laughed along the way, and was in a very good mood.
Not long after, they returned to the village where the academy was located.
It was already late at night, and Chen Feng was preparing to return to the dormitory with Tang San when Ning Rongrong called him back.
"Xiaofeng, Zhuqing and I have something we want to tell you."
Chen Feng was stunned for a moment, "You...and Zhu Qing?"
He looked at Zhu Zhuqing beside him, but Zhu Zhuqing's face was calm, and he couldn't tell anything from her expression.
“Yes, we want to talk to you,” Ning Rongrong said.
The others exchanged glances and, with great tact, returned to their dormitories, leaving only Chen Feng and the two girls behind.
The three found a large rock to sit on. Chen Feng, sandwiched between the two girls, asked somewhat awkwardly:
"What...are you trying to say?"
He could certainly sense the feelings the two girls had for him. If they wanted to talk to him alone, that would be understandable. But now that they were together, Chen Feng had no idea what they wanted to do.
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing looked at each other, and Ning Rongrong spoke first, asking:
"Your relationship with Tang San, uh, is pretty good, huh?"
“Yes, Xiao Wu, Xiao San, and I grew up together, and we have a very good relationship,” Chen Feng said.
"Oh." Ning Rongrong fell into an odd silence.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing spoke up:
"We heard that you and he slept in the same bed since you were little?"
Chen Feng: ...
He finally understood what the two girls wanted to say.
Chen Feng scratched his head and said somewhat helplessly:
"Didn't I already explain to you before? It was just a misunderstanding, it just happened to happen. When we were kids, we slept in the same bed because my husband's family was struggling financially. He didn't know about the subsidies at first, so we shared a set of bedding."
"So after Tang San received the subsidy, you two didn't sleep in separate beds?" Ning Rongrong asked a rather sharp question.
"……without."
Seeing that the two girls looked rather unhappy, Chen Feng quickly explained:
"The main problem was that moving the bed around was a hassle, and we both forgot about it later."
"So now? You two should be sleeping in separate beds, right?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"Absolutely! My sexual orientation is perfectly normal. Even if I, Chen Feng, were to die in the Star Dou Great Forest and be eaten by a soul beast, I would never fall in love with someone of the same sex!" Chen Feng said resolutely.
Seeing his expression, as if he wanted to swear an oath, Ning Rongrong chuckled:
Why are you so nervous? We were just a little worried, that's why we were asking. So you like girls?
"Of course."
"So what do you think of Xiao Wu?" Ning Rongrong pressed.
"...How did this involve Xiao Wu again?"
“When she was in trouble before, you and Tang San risked your lives to save her. I know you grew up together and have a good relationship, but I’m also worried that your friendship might change.”
Chen Feng said with a hint of helplessness:
"You're overthinking it."
Ning Rongrong narrowed her eyes and smiled, then asked a crucial question:
"Between me and Zhuqing, who do you like more?"
Chen Feng felt a headache coming on. "How am I supposed to answer this question?"
"I have to answer," Ning Rongrong said, shaking Chen Feng's arm.
Zhu Zhuqing wasn't as open as her, but she also looked at Chen Feng expectantly, waiting for his answer.
Chen Feng, however, was still trying to dodge the question, saying, "I think we're still too young, isn't it a bit too early to talk about this?"
Ning Rongrong snorted lightly, "I don't care what you think, I care what I think, and I think now is the perfect time to say this."
Chen Feng scratched his face, thought for a moment, and then asked:
Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?
"Truth." "Lies."
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing gave different answers at the same time, then they looked at each other and quickly reached a consensus.
"Let's listen to the lies first."
“A lie is…” Chen Feng paused deliberately, then said:
I don't like either of you.
Ning Rongrong wrinkled her nose and said with dissatisfaction:
"I still want to hear the truth."
"The truth." Chen Feng stretched out a hand and slowly clenched it, as if he were holding the whole world in his grasp.
"The truth is, I want it all! But we'll talk about it when we're older."
"Pah! How shameless of you to say such a thing." Ning Rongrong angrily punched Chen Feng lightly with her fist.
“You’re the ones who want to hear the truth,” Chen Feng said, shrugging. “This is my honest opinion. Only children make choices, while adults choose to have it all.”
It would be a lie to say that Chen Feng wasn't tempted by two beautiful girls who had feelings for him.
He didn't want to make any choices because that's just his personality; he's a jerk, and he's honest about it, never hiding it.
Ning Rongrong pursed her lips. After going through hardships together during this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest, her relationship with Zhu Zhuqing had improved.
They both knew that the other genuinely liked Chen Feng, and they also knew that someone like Chen Feng was hard to possess entirely.
So to some extent, they have accepted each other, but even so, Ning Rongrong still wants to hear Chen Feng say that he likes her more.
After all, she had been pampered since childhood, and the thought of sharing her beloved with another girl made her somewhat uncomfortable.
The same thought flashed through Zhu Zhuqing's mind, but she was more open-minded than Ning Rongrong because her father had more than one wife, so she was relatively more accepting of this kind of thing.
What Zhu Zhuqing truly cares about is preventing Chen Feng from going astray.
As long as Chen Feng likes a girl, she will always have a chance. But if Chen Feng goes down a forbidden path, then neither she nor Ning Rongrong will have a chance.
Zhu Zhuqing could still get some food from the former, but the latter had even had its pot smashed. She could tell which was more important.
Although Ning Rongrong was very unhappy with Chen Feng's scumbag remarks, she couldn't find any reason to refute them, so she could only say:
"Then you can't mess with other girls anymore, understand?"
Chen Feng nodded. "I promise I won't provoke other girls."
He actually felt that dating was not as interesting as building a career, so he never put his energy into relationships and never actively pursued any girl.
...Speaking of which, this behavior seems a bit like that of a scumbag, doesn't it?
After careful consideration, Chen Feng felt that he was probably not a scumbag, because a scumbag's behavior is to neither take initiative nor refuse and to take responsibility, while he neither took initiative nor refused but took responsibility.
Hmm... maybe he should be called a semi-scumbag?
But regardless of whether he's a scumbag or not, Chen Feng has never really cared much about relationships, and probably won't in the future either, so he feels perfectly justified in making those promises.
Ning Rongrong was very satisfied with Chen Feng's assurance. She felt that as long as Chen Feng didn't provoke other girls, and with her and Zhu Zhuqing keeping a close watch on him, there shouldn't be any problems.
It's impossible for someone to be attracted to Chen Feng without ever having met him, right? That would be too outrageous.
……
The next morning, Chen Feng woke up in bed yawning.
He chatted with Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing until late last night, so he's still a bit tired and has given up on cultivating the Purple Demon Eye.
Tang San, on the other hand, had a stronger sense of self-discipline, so he woke up early and went to the rooftop to absorb the purple energy.
After washing up and clearing his head, Chen Feng made his way to the cafeteria without any trouble.
By this time, everyone else was already seated and eating. Chen Feng also took his food and sat down, saying as he ate:
