?34: 034: Pulled the tiger’s whisker 34: 034: Pulled the tiger’s whisker It was the scent of bamboo.

    Back when he first entered the Cultivation World, it was a six-hundred-year-old bamboo that had allowed him to smoothly break through the Innate stage and thus obtain the opportunity to join a Sect.

    And then step by step, he grew into a colossal figure of the Immortal Realm.

    Could there be such an opportunity now?

    Was it chance or destiny?

    Tang Feng did not immediately approach, knowing that such heavenly treasures were not easily obtained.

    Although he did not believe this world possessed Spiritual Beasts, there certainly were Fierce Beasts with a hundred years of cultivation, and any beast that could guard Spiritual Medicine surely had intelligence, and was also very powerful.

    Otherwise, the medicine would have been picked already; how could it still be intact and lying there?

    After skulking closer, Tang Feng discovered his prediction was entirely correct; at the entrance of the burrow, there was a pile of skeletons.

    All were from beasts.

    This place likely hadn’t been touched by humans for hundreds of years.

    Tang Feng took each step with extreme caution, afraid to awaken any sleeping Fierce Beasts.

    To obtain that herb, Tang Feng had to overcome this problem.

    The sense of danger was all too familiar to him.

    However, exactly because of this, he felt somewhat helpless.

    He never thought he would be stumped by a mere Fierce Beast.

    Amid his wry laughter, he couldn’t help but consider various strategies.

    Just as he was deep in thought, a few rabbits burst out from the side, instantly drawing Tang Feng’s attention.

    He saw the rabbits quickly approach the burrow’s entrance, their eyes fixed on the darkness inside.

    Just as they were about to enter, a huge mouth opened wide, and none of the rabbits escaped its fate.

    As the image of the Fierce Beast presented itself in front of Tang Feng, he was also stunned for a moment.

    What kind of creature was this?

    Despite having seen much of the world, Tang Feng was captivated by the Hundred-eyed Monster Snake.

    The entirety of the snake’s body was covered with eyes, it had two antennae on its head and two whiskers by its nose, giving it an appearance somewhat reminiscent of a dragon’s head, yet strikingly different.

    For some reason, being stared at by those eyes made him feel uncomfortable; there were simply no blind spots.

    What to do?

    Without understanding the creature well, Tang Feng would not act rashly.

    Although the bamboo had not completely matured, seeing it made him itch with desire, yet without achieving breakthrough to Innate first, he really had no certainty of conquering the Fierce Snake.

    Observing its body flush with green and deep patterns, he was certain it was a venomous snake.

    Seeing the snake retreat into the burrow, Tang Feng quietly backed away, his forehead breaking out in a slight sweat.

    This Earth was not as simple as it seemed on the surface; such rare medicinal bamboo existed here.

    After spending a day and a night on the mountain, Tang Feng finally collected all the medicinal herbs he needed.

    Looking back at Chaoyang Mountain from the foot of the mountain, his heart couldn’t suppress the surging joy.

    To him, this was a Treasure Mountain, and perhaps there really was a chance to transcend mortality and reach the Gathering Spirit Stage.

    At that moment, his confidence was unprecedentedly strong.

    Back at the villa, the bricks and mortar he ordered had been delivered one after another, and the master workers had also arrived.

    Since Tang Feng was absent, Mu Qingwan took charge and let them start work first.

    Yet in just one day, a house of more than thirty square meters had already been built, and they were already decorating the interior.

    Dressed in a suit, Mu Qingwan had an innately beautiful presence, and one could tell her allure by the way the workers occasionally stole glances at her.

    Speaking of which, she was quite bold.

    Now, in the villa, she was the only woman, with the rest being workers.

    Was she not afraid that any of them might harbor bad intentions?

    Fortunately, the workers were all respectful and submissive.

    Tang Feng walked up to Mu Qingwan and gently wrapped his arm around her, only to be gently pushed away by her, “You’ve been missing for a day and a night, where did you go?

    You stink to death.”

    “Had some things to attend to.

    Why aren’t you at the company?

    Don’t delay your work because of me,” Tang Feng said.

    “It’s alright, I’ve arranged everything.

    Go take a shower quickly, I’ll cook for you.” Mu Qingwan moved with graceful steps, even her retreating figure was stunning.

    “Lucky fellow,” one of the foremen commented with a smile.

    “Heh, yeah, I think so too.

    You all worked hard today,” Tang Feng replied as he ran back to the villa.

    “Really envious, it seems age really isn’t a barrier.

    I should also consider Little Lian,” the foreman murmured to himself.

    Mu Qingwan rarely cooked, perhaps not even ten times a year, but whenever she did, she took it very seriously.

    When Tang Feng appeared behind her, she hadn’t even finished preparing one dish.

    “Sister Wan, please take a seat.

    I’ll cook today.”

    “Do you know how?”

    “I don’t, but I’m naturally smart.

    Just one look and I can make it,” he said, then took out his phone and searched for a few dishes based on their names.

    He then started cooking.

    To Mu Qingwan’s astonishment, the taste was extraordinary, comparable to a five-star level.

    “How is it?”

    “Very good.” Even Mu Qingwan, who was normally reserved, couldn’t help but eat more.

    “Sister Wan, you look so pretty when you eat,” Tang Feng said, his appetite stirred.

    “Really?

    Don’t just watch; hurry up and taste what you’ve made.” Mu Qingwan served Tang Feng some food, displaying great domestic virtue.

    Tang Feng was a bit nervous.

    He feared that Mu Qingwan was only pretending to enjoy the food to make him happy, but after tasting it, he was relieved.

    I knew it, how could a Medicine Master struggle with something as simple as cooking?

    “Wow!

    It smells amazing.”

    Just then, a fragrant breeze wafted in, and Xiao Ya threw down her bag, striding over with big steps.

    She grabbed a bowl and chopsticks from the kitchen and began to eat profusely without any consideration for Tang Feng and Mu Qingwan.

    She totally ignored Tang Feng and Mu Qingwan.

    Yikes!

    The flavor nearly made Xiao Ya swallow her own tongue.

    “Qing Wan, where did you order this food from?

    It’s perfect.

    The so-called gourmet food I had before was nearly garbage compared to this.

    How can such simple dishes be so delicious?”

    “Guess!”

    “How could I possibly guess?

    It must be a new place, right?

    You have to take me there next time,” she said while gobbling up the food, emptying the plates in two minutes.

    Seeing the dumbfounded expressions on Mu Qingwan and Tang Feng, she felt a bit embarrassed.

    “Sorry, I just can’t stop myself when I get excited.”

    “Xiao Ya, do you have to be so extravagant?” Mu Qingwan said with a teasing smile.

    Tang Feng was completely taken aback.

    Ever since Lin Yunqiu defeated him, he had been particularly weak-bodied, struggling to resist the charm of a woman like Mu Qingwan.

    As if sensing Tang Feng’s heated gaze, Mu Qingwan gave him a sidelong glance.

    Tang Feng nearly pounced on her, but alas, there was a live cannon in front of him.

    However, his foot snaked over, and quickly climbed up to her upper half.

    Tang Feng sneakily watched Mu Geiwan, but he noticed that Sister Wan didn’t react at all, just smiling.

    No way, she’s so calm.

    So he applied a bit more force and hit the target spot on.

    Ah!

    Tang Feng was startled and quickly withdrew his foot, nearly scared out of his wits.

    The sound had come from Xiao Ya.

    Her face was beet red, her lips bitten purple, and she glared at Tang Feng with eyes full of fury, her murderous intent enough to kill Tang Feng many times over.

    How dare this guy, how dare he do this to her, this was outrageous.

    “Xiao Ya, what’s wrong?”

    “Nothing, nothing,” she gritted her teeth, too embarrassed to speak the truth.

    Tang Feng, feeling guilty, didn’t dare to look at Xiao Ya anymore.

    He had really shot himself in the foot.

    Why provoke a tiger?

    Mu Qingwan took the bowls back to the kitchen, and after she walked in, Xiao Ya erupted, stomping hard on Tang Feng’s foot.

    Phew!

    Tang Feng didn’t expect a tit-for-tat, and although it hurt a lot, he dared not make a sound.

    “Hmph!

    This is just the appetizer.

    You just wait,” she said before swiftly heading upstairs, unable to stay any longer.

    Going upstairs, she hurried to check herself, and the next moment, her face grew even redder.

    “That despicable bastard, how dare he take such advantage of me?

    I’ll see how I’m going to deal with him.”
