Caro Zhengyang was a Prime Emperor powerhouse. Lin Kongqing was only a child who had yet to awaken his beast form. His approach wouldn’t bring any danger to Caro Zhengyang. Thus, no one stopped him.
Caro Zhengyang didn’t take Lin Kongqing seriously either.
Kong Qing walked in front of Caro Zhengyang. He was very close. As long as he opened his arms, he could hug Caro Zhengyang.
“Mr. Caro.” Kong Qing’s voice hadn’t entered the puberty stage yet, and he sounded like a child. “Nowadays, there are an endless amount of AI products. When my father found out that you had been in seclusion for 700 years, he knew that you must have been isolated from the world for 700 years and wouldn’t know how to use modern high-tech products, so he specially prepared a high-tech electronic product use manual as a birthday gift for you.”
“This is the most comprehensive product description. I hope you don’t mind.”
All the guests were speechless.
Caro Zhengyang was speechless.
Was he looking down on him?!
Caro Zhengyang was saying on the stage earlier that he couldn’t learn how to use the AI products of modern technology. Lin Jiansheng thoughtfully handed him a manual.
He was so considerate.
Caro Zhengyang took the box with a strange expression. He opened it and saw that it was really an AI product manual. For a moment, he didn’t know what expression to show.
When Beatrice saw this, she suddenly smiled.
She said to Mo Yuelou, “In the past, Saint Ling Xiao never participated in Mother’s birthdays because he was afraid of spending money to prepare gifts. This time, I’m quite surprised to see him participate in Mr. Caro’s birthday. I thought that this miser was finally willing to spend money. Who knew…”
As she stared at the manual in Caro Zhengyang’s hand with a strange expression, the smile in Beatrice’s eyes widened.
Not only was Beatrice laughing, but the other guests were also laughing.
Seeing that Caro Zhengyang didn’t speak, Kong Qing asked him, “Mr. Caro, do you find this gift shabby?”
Children were blunt.
No one would think that a child was insensible if they heard this from a child.
Caro Zhengyang smiled and said, “Little fellow, this gift from your father is very thoughtful. It’s very practical for me. I’ll accept it. Help me thank your father.”
Kong Qing finally smiled.
Kong Qing didn’t go down. He nervously pinched the bow on his neck and asked respectfully and cautiously, “Mr. Caro, I have never seen a Prime Emperor in my life. Mr. Caro, can I hug you?”
How could Caro Zhengyang reject a child’s hug in front of all the guests?
He placed the manual on the coffee table to his right and opened his arms to Kong Qing. “Come on, give me a hug.”
Kong Qing nodded and thanked him. Then, he moved his short legs closer to Caro Zhengyang and opened his arms to hug his waist.
Caro Zhengyang also hugged Kong Qing’s body weakly.
The moment their bodies touched, the interspatial ring hanging on Kong Qing’s neck suddenly trembled!
In a corner that no one could see, Kong Qing’s green eyes instantly became as black as ink, like two bottomless abysses. Waves of faint and undetectable black resentment silently entered Caro Zhengyang’s body through his pores.
Kong Qingsong drove Caro Zhengyang away. He looked up at Caro Zhengyang and said, “See you next time, Mr. Caro.”
With that, he turned around and returned to the table.
Caro Zhengyang stared at the child’s back and shook his head. He thought to himself, ‘You’re just a brat. How are you qualified to see me next time?!’
After returning to his seat, the childish expression on Kong Qing’s face instantly disappeared. He pulled Lin Jiansheng’s sleeve and said, “Daddy, I’m full. Let’s go back.”
Seeing his reaction, Lin Jiansheng knew that he had already found the answer he wanted. “Alright, let’s go.”
Before leaving, Lin Jiansheng told Yu Huang, “Ah Huang, after the birthday banquet is over, bring that young man called Feng Yuncheng to see me.”
“Feng Yuncheng?” Yu Huang glanced at the seat Feng Yuncheng was sitting at. Feng Yuncheng stared at Her Highness and didn’t notice that Yu Huang was looking at him.
Yu Huang asked Lin Jiansheng, “Mentor, why are you looking for Feng Yuncheng?”
Lin Jiansheng said, “Isn’t he your good friend? Coincidentally, my cultivation level has improved quite a bit. I want to see if I can purify his beast form.”
Yu Huang immediately agreed. “Okay.”
After the meal and the gift session, Lin Jiansheng left with Kong Qing.
The banquet lasted for more than an hour. Feng Tang was about to leave with his brother when he saw Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang walking over.
He stopped in his tracks.
Sheng Xiao stopped Feng Tang. “Senior.” Sheng Xiao took the initiative to invite the Feng brothers to their house. “Senior, everyone will go their separate ways after graduation. We rarely have time to gather. This is a rare opportunity. I wonder if you are willing to stay at my house for a night?”
This was a chance to get close to Sheng Xiao and the Sheng family. Feng Tang wouldn’t reject it, but he hesitated. “Will I disturb you and Yu Huang?”
“How could that be?” Yu Huang said, “No friends have ever visited our new home yet.”
“That would be nice.”
So, the Feng brothers went to Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang’s house in Lovers Lake.
At night, Sheng Xiao and Feng Tang sat in the courtyard while brewing tea and chatting about the past of the academy and the future of the continent.
Feng Tang said, “If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to take over the family and become the patriarch within ten years. My father was injured a few years ago and needs to rest.”
“What about you?”
Sheng Xiao poured a cup of water into Feng Tang’s teacup. He said, “Me?” He looked back at the lit master bedroom on the third floor and stared at the beautiful figure reflected in the glass window. He said, “After the situation on the continent is settled, Yu Huang and I will go to the Upper World.”
Feng Tang subconsciously said, “But the Time Gate has already been sealed. How can you go?”
Sheng Xiao smiled. “We’ll open it.”
Sheng Xiao said it casually, but Feng Tang was shocked.
“You’re impressive.” Feng Tang drank a cup of tea and still felt his heart racing
“However, the powerhouses of our continent had to go to the Upper World to train. Only then will they be able to live up to their potential. Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang are talented. Even if you guys go to the Upper World, you guys will definitely be able to shine in the Upper World.”
“Thank you.”
The two of them chatted downstairs. On the other side, Yu Huang walked down from upstairs and went to the guest room to talk to Feng Si.
After Feng Si showered, he wore silk pajamas and leaned against the head of the bed while playing games. Yu Huang knocked on the door and entered. She snatched Feng Si’s phone away and said, “Feng Yuncheng, do you want to purify your Bewitching Spotted Butterfly?”
Feng Si immediately sat up in bed and exclaimed, “You can?”
“No.”
The excitement in Feng Si’s eyes dimmed.
Yu Huang suppressed her laughter and said, “But my mentor can.”
“Saint Ling Xiao is willing to purify my spirit?” Feng Si excitedly grabbed Yu Huang’s shoulder and hugged her while jumping around. “That’s great! My beast form can also be purified!”
His voice was too loud and alarmed the two brothers in the courtyard.
Sheng Xiao turned around and saw two figures hugging.
Feng Si was hugging his wife again?
Feng Tang heard the sound of a cup hitting the ground. When he turned to look at Sheng Xiao, he was no longer beside him.
The guest room door was pushed open. Sheng Xiao strode over and separated Yu Huang and Feng Si. Sheng Xiao pressed Yu Huang into his arms and glared at Feng Si, who was dancing. “Why are you hugging my wife?”
Feng Si was so excited that he even looked at Sheng Xiao with excitement.
Feng Si walked over quickly and hugged Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang. He lowered Sheng Xiao’s back and said happily, “My beast form can be purified! I’ve finally awaited this day!”
Feng Tang pushed the door open and was shocked when he saw his brother hugging Sheng Xiao and his wife. “Feng Yuncheng, why are you hugging Young Master Sheng?!”
Feng Si finally came to his senses.
When he realized who he was hugging, he felt uncomfortable.
Feng Si quickly let go of Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang. He was so frightened that his face turned pale. “I’m sorry, Professor Sheng. I was too excited just now and lost control.”
Sheng Xiao was speechless. He turned around and said to Feng Tang, “Your brother is not young anymore. There must be many beautiful girls in the Ice Domain Continent waiting to marry him.”
Feng Tang glanced at Feng Yuncheng and nodded deliberately. “I’ll arrange a blind date for him later!”
Feng Si quickly shut his mouth.
Yu Huang chuckled and pushed Sheng Xiao away. She stood up straight and said, “I want to bring Feng Yuncheng to see Mentor. Mentor said that she wants to purify his spirit.”
“Mentor wants to purify Feng Yuncheng’s spirit?” Sheng Xiao was puzzled. Lin Jiansheng had taken the initiative to purify the spirit for the Beast Tamer. Why was he so kind today?
Feng Tang was overjoyed when he found out that Saint Ling Xiao was willing to help his younger brother, purify his spirit. “I’ll send you there.”
“Then let’s do it together.”
Sheng Xiao and Feng Tang escorted Yu Huang and Feng Si to Lin Jiansheng’s manor. The two of them waited in the hall while Yu Huang brought Feng Si to the second floor to look for Lin Jiansheng.
Lin Jiansheng was tidying up the study room when Yu Huang knocked on the door. “Mentor, I brought Feng Yuncheng.”
“Come in.”
The two of them pushed the door open and walked in. They saw that the ground was filled with books and had no place to stand.
Lin Jiansheng had taken off his Purifying Spirit Master robe and was sitting on the ground, half-naked, while arranging his books. Without raising his head, he said, “Help me tidy up the study first before we talk about serious matters.”
“Alright, Saint Ling Xiao!” Feng Yuncheng was like a hardworking bee as he carried his books and shuttled between the different bookshelves. He was so tired that his clothes were drenched in sweat, but he didn’t complain.
As long as Lin Jiansheng could purify his beast form, he was willing to do anything.
When it was almost dawn, the three of them finally tidied up the study.
Lin Jiansheng sat on the empty floor and licked his dry lips. He said to Yu Huang, “Get me some water.” Yu Huang went downstairs and picked up a teapot and three teacups.
Just as she was about to pour tea for Lin Jiansheng, he walked over and picked up the small teapot before drinking from it directly.
Lin Jiansheng finished the pot of tea.
When Feng Si saw this scene, he hurriedly gave Lin Jiansheng a thumbs up and praised him. “Saint Ling Xiao, you’re so generous!”
Lin Jiansheng waved his hand. “Stop sucking up to me. Come here, I want to ask you a few questions.”
It was time to accept the test!
Feng Si hurriedly tidied his sweaty clothes and walked to Lin Jiansheng. He stood upright like a young man who had been caught red-handed by the dean when holding a girl’s hand for the first time.
Lin Jiansheng sized Feng Si up from head to toe before saying, “I heard that your beast form is a special technique that can make you transform into the appearance of the person someone cares about?”
Feng Si didn’t dare to hide it and hurriedly nodded. “Yes, Saint Ling Xiao.”
“Is that so?” Lin Jiansheng placed the teapot on the desk behind him. He suddenly said to Feng Si, “If you can transform into the person in my heart, I will help you purify your spirit for free.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Huang subconsciously asked Lin Jiansheng, “Mentor, when did you have a person in your heart? Is it a man or a woman?”
Lin Jiansheng glared at her. “Shut up.”
Yu Huang hurriedly shut up.
Feng Si knew that Lin Jiansheng was testing his ability, so he didn’t dare to neglect it. Feng Si focused all his energy and a pair of gorgeous butterfly wings suddenly appeared on his back.
His eyes were fixed on Lin Jiansheng’s eyes. He clearly didn’t do anything, but Lin Jiansheng had the illusion that he had been peeped at.
Slowly, Feng Si’s body changed.
His short hair became long black hair, and his handsome face with glasses gradually became gentle and fair. In the end, it turned into a woman’s face.
His thin body became graceful and enchanting, and the silk pajamas on his body became a white long-sleeved dress.
The person standing in front of Lin Jiansheng was no longer Feng Yuncheng, but Purifying Spirit Grand Mentor Su Tingxue!
Yu Huang immediately recognized the woman in front of her as the carving doll that her mentor had kept as a treasure. She stared at Feng Si, who had transformed, and asked Lin Jiansheng in confusion, “Mentor, who is she?”
Lin Jiansheng stared at the woman in front of him in surprise and couldn’t help but poke her cheek with his index finger. Even Lin Jiansheng was amazed.
This child was amazing!
Feng Si ducked back in embarrassment and said in an unfamiliar female voice, “Saint Ling Xiao, don’t molest me.”
Lin Jiansheng quibbled shamelessly, “Molest? I’m just testing your authenticity.”
Feng Si said, “…Oh.”
At this moment, Lin Jiansheng heard Su Tingxue asking, “How did you know that I look like this? Why do you have me in your heart? That’s not right either, you…”
Su Tingxue guessed a possibility and was shocked. “You like me?!”
Lin Jiansheng didn’t know how to explain all of this, so he simply blocked Su Tingxue’s voice. Then, he said to Feng Si, “Your illusion technique is very real. It’s so real that I can’t tell if it’s real or fake.”
Feng Si asked in a female voice, “Then are you willing to purify my spirit?”
“Sure, but I have a request.”
Feng Si quickly said respectfully, “Saint Ling Xiao, feel free to ask. As long as I can do it, I definitely won’t refuse.”
“Very good,” Lin Jiansheng said. “I want you to go to Kui Mountain.”

“Why go to Kui Mountain?”
“To pretend to be a ghost!”
