Chapter 312: Chapter 300: Now I Can Afford to Support You! A Bit Cold, A Bit Aggrieved; The Inextinguishable Flame!
Chu Feng emerged from the underground cultivation room with a contented smile on his face.
After half an afternoon’s research, he had gained a deeper understanding of the mechanism behind "Law of Heaven and Earth," and would soon be able to master the flexible use of this talent.
Just as he stepped out of the cultivation room, a rumbling sound came from his stomach, and a terrifying sense of hunger like a mutiny rushed into his brain.
"Damn, I got too engrossed and forgot to eat!"
He looked at his watch to see it was already nearly eight o’clock in the evening, and immediately packed up his things and went out to eat.
A martial artist’s physique is robust, with an extremely high body density, which correspondingly leads to a very high consumption of energy and nutrients, requiring a large intake of nutritional substances every day.
Not replenishing nutrients in time would lead to situations like Chu Feng’s current one, where he felt dizzy and weak from hunger, barely able to muster any strength.
He walked listlessly toward the canteen, and just as he stepped out of the new students’ dormitory area, his information terminal rang.
He took out the information terminal and glanced at it, then his eyes widened, looking at the screen with surprise.
It was a call request from Wang Xuerui.
’I thought Xue Rui wouldn’t contact me for a while, is she really that impatient? Or is there something important?’ he thought.
With that thought, he answered the call, and Wang Xuerui’s lovely face immediately appeared on the information terminal.
Chu Feng smiled wearily: "Xue Rui, what’s the matter?"
Wang Xuerui had mentally prepared herself for a long time before dialing Chu Feng’s number, overcoming the impulse to flee, but the moment she saw Chu Feng’s face, she almost hung up the call then and there.
She psyched herself up internally, and with an expressionless face, she said: "Where are you? Why do you look so spiritless?"
Ignoring her feigned indifference, Chu Feng laughed: "I was so busy cultivating that I lost track of time and forgot to eat, I’m about to starve!"
Wang Xuerui’s expression softened slightly: "You’re quite diligent."
"I’ve made too many enemies; if I’m not diligent, I won’t survive. Is there something you needed?" His words quietly softened Wang Xuerui’s heart again.
"Did you injure someone today?" Wang Xuerui’s face darkened at the thought.
"The news reached you?"
Chu Feng was astonished, then laughed: "It was just a normal sparring session. Those noble clan descendants wanted to cripple me, so I fought back."
Wang Xuerui touched her forehead, looking helpless: "You’re getting too harsh now. You tore half of Lin Xuan from the Lin Family’s face. He came looking for his brother for help this afternoon and vowed to kick you out of Yan University."
"Hah, if they can’t win, they call for help—typical of noble clan descendants! Let them come," Chu Feng scoffed. "If the teacher hadn’t stopped me, I would have made him crawl back to the Lin Family!"
"Xiao Feng!" Wang Xuerui snapped angrily, "You can’t be so tough on the noble families; it’ll backfire on you!"
Chu Feng patted his stomach, his face pained: "Right now, I don’t want to suffer losses; I just want to eat. I’m almost fainting from hunger. How about we meet at the canteen?"
"All you think about is eating! Wait there!" Wang Xuerui said, sounding annoyed, and hung up the call.
Chu Feng shrugged and continued on his way to the canteen.
...
Just as he had piled a mountain of food on the table, Wang Xuerui arrived with a fragrant breeze.
Ms. Xuerui, let’s eat together. I’ll treat you!" Chu Feng chuckled and called out.
His words instantly evoked Wang Xuerui’s warm memories from two months ago, when she and Chu Feng had their first meal together after arriving at Yan University dormitory.
Back then, Chu Feng said he would support her, and she had laughed, saying he couldn’t afford it.
I never thought that our statuses would have completely reversed like this.
Wang Xuerui’s imposing aura shattered, she sat down across from Chu Feng with a huff, and slapped the table as she said:
"This afternoon at the Martial Arts Association, I heard Lin Xuan accusing you of severely injuring him for no reason, and he wants to bring his brother, Lin Hao, the vice president of the Martial Arts Association, to deal with you."
"Lin Xuan, huh? What a loser, don’t bother with him. I’ll go to the Copyright Management Department later and cancel his cultivation technique. As for Lin Hao, another president?"
Chu Feng chuckled, "Looks like I’ve stirred up a hornet’s nest, going against two of them? How many vice presidents does your Martial Arts Association even have?"
Seeing his carefree demeanor, Wang Xuerui admonished, "You’d better take this seriously. Lin Hao is nothing like Xuan Ziyuan!
"Xuan Ziyuan has no family backing him, his realm is limited by his resources; he’s only at the Everlasting Realm Initial Stage, but Lin Hao is already at the Everlasting Realm Late Stage, his combat strength is much stronger than Xuan Ziyuan’s!"
Chu Feng voraciously tore into his meat, his enjoyment evident, and he mumbled with a vague smile, "My feeling about these two is like, ’This is just an old hen, and that one’s different, that’s a super-sized turkey,’ no big difference."
"What do you mean, no difference? Even after reaching the Everlasting Realm, you shouldn’t underestimate the heroes of the world..."
"Makes no difference when I’m killing them!" Chu Feng swallowed his food and calmly interrupted, "On the battlefield, the number of Everlastings that have died by my hand surpasses the total in all of Yan University."
Wang Xuerui felt intimidated by the natural murderous intent in his words, and she stared at him with a somewhat unfamiliar gaze.
Then she lowered her head and mumbled resentfully, "Since you have a plan, it seems like my trip here was pointless."
Just as she silently rose to leave, a large hand reached out from across the table and pulled her back.
"You... let go!"
Wang Xuerui struggled fiercely but couldn’t overcome his immense strength, and she was directly embraced by Chu Feng into his arms.
The rich masculine scent overwhelmed her, causing her to feel slightly dazed.
Chu Feng’s arm reached out, encircling Wang Xuerui’s slender waist, while his other hand held hers, and he earnestly said:
"You came all the way to find me, how could I not appreciate your kindness? It’s just that I really don’t care about these clowns."
Wang Xuerui glanced around, relieved when she saw that the cafeteria was sparse and no one paid attention to them. She lowered her head, her tone a mix of indifference and grievance, "You’re so powerful now, at the Everlasting Realm you say kill and they die, you say I can’t leave and I can’t, and now you brazenly hold me in public... I can’t afford to provoke someone dangerous like you!"
"The Everlastings I’m talking about don’t include you... Alright, actually all the Everlastings in the world are pretty much the same, I can toy with them using just one hand."
"You!"
Wang Xuerui was so angry that her eyebrows knitted tightly, and she really wanted to bite to death the brazen jerk beneath her.
Chu Feng chuckled mischievously, holding down Wang Xuerui, who started squirming like a fish on his body, and said gently in a counterattack:
"What you just said was too hurtful. You are the most important person to me, I would never be fierce towards you."
Chu Feng’s soft-spoken words caused Wang Xuerui’s heart to soften. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she looked away, unsettled: "Don’t sweet-talk me, I’m not falling for your tricks."
Chu Feng loved Wang Xuerui’s stubbornness, and he could tell from the shyness on her face that she had feelings for him too.
Her willingness to be held by him said it all.
But...
’Is this girl so easily embarrassed? Why hadn’t I noticed before? Or is she only tender when we’re alone?’
Chu Feng, holding his beloved’s soft body, felt a flame rising in his heart that he couldn’t extinguish.
Wang Xuerui seemed to sense an ominous sign and her face showed a hint of panic. Suddenly, in a stroke of quick thinking she said, "That’s right, there’s another thing, the Wang Family wants to invite you over as a guest!"
