Chapter 279: Feipeng’s Fortune
Xiao Heng's words were not without reason.
However, it was impossible for Su Xiaomei and Zhang Haobo, who had finally sensed where their opportunities lay, to easily give up.
Su Xiaomei, with her explosive temper, would not listen to anyone once she got worked up.
And Zhang Haobo had even more reason.
He had not embarked on the path of cultivation early; he was over ten years older than the others from Dali and had fallen significantly behind.
Now, making him wait longer, who knew when the next opportunity would arise?
It was known that on the path of cultivation, each step taken opened more directions.
Zhang Haobo had fallen far behind in this aspect and didn't want to delay any longer.
With a determined gaze, Zhang Haobo had obviously made up his mind.
Xiao Heng was dumbfounded by his words and couldn't find a reason to refute them.
He could only turn to Su Changyu, Ye Feipeng, and the others for help in persuading them.
Ye Feipeng, with his carefree attitude, didn't care at all. "Xiao Heng, don't worry about it."
"Think about it, I managed to escape from a Nascent Soul cultivator of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance back then. With their good fortune and cultivation level not inferior to mine, as long as they're cautious, what danger could they face?"
Su Changyu remained silent, not trying to block Su Xiaomei's journey.
With her brother backing her up, Su Xiaomei became even more pleased with herself.
She couldn't wait to set off immediately.
Anxious, Xiao Heng hurriedly stopped her and persuaded her with all his might to hold off.
He urged them to prepare thoroughly before heading to Jiushan Province.
Looking at Su Xiaomei, who was glaring at him fiercely, Xiao Heng sighed inwardly, feeling helpless.
He knew Su Xiaomei's temper well.
It was almost certain that Su Xiaomei would get into conflicts the moment they encountered outsiders.
If possible, Xiao Heng also wanted to go with them to protect them.
However, after Su Xiaomei and Zhang Haobo left, the only ones left on the deserted island with some combat power were Xiao Heng and Ye Feipeng.
Ye Feipeng was often secretive and unreliable, frequently going out. He couldn't be relied upon.
If he also went with them, there would be no resistance left on the deserted island.
Bringing Su Changyu and the others along for the adventure was even more unreliable.
Even if they wanted to go, Xiao Heng couldn't agree to it.
After some thought, Xiao Heng initiated a ritual and entered the White Bone Realm.
But her attention was focused on the newly acquired treasures, and she was somewhat pleased, quietly playing with them.
Zhang Haobo put away the items first, then solemnly assured Xiao Heng.
After all the preparations were made, another round of farewells ensued.
The two of them, holding a map that Ye Feipeng had somehow obtained, set off in the direction of Jiushan Province.
Two companions embarked on an unknown fate in pursuit of Golden Core.
The remaining people, amidst reluctance and worry, were also inspired.
"I also need to hurry up and achieve Golden Core. When Xiaomei returns, she will surely be surprised," Xiao Heng resolved silently.
The Yin sisters glanced at each other, then returned to the depths of the deserted island to practice diligently.
Su Changyu looked towards the direction Su Xiaomei had left, his expression becoming more determined.
Ye Feipeng didn't show much sadness.
Instead, when he saw Xiao Heng return from the White Bone Realm with so many treasures, his eyes rolled around in excitement.
After everyone had left, he followed suit and went to the White Bone Realm to plead.
He tried to get some benefits from Senior Skull.
Li Fan, who witnessed this scene, couldn't help but feel a bit amused and exasperated.
Seeing the pitiful appearance of the fatty, if Li Fan hadn't been monitoring him all along, he would almost have been deceived by his excellent performance.
In light of his earnest performance, Li Fan didn't ignore him this time.
After some thought, Li Fan inscribed the "Creation Forge Art" onto a jade slip and sent it to Ye Feipeng.
A flash of white light appeared.
Seeing the unexpected gain this time, Ye Feipeng was overjoyed. He jumped up and held the jade slip, eager to read it.
"The Creation Forge Art?"
The domineering words that first appeared stunned him.
His pupils contracted suddenly, and he instinctively put away the jade slip, looking around.
After confirming that he was the only one in the White Bone Realm, Ye Feipeng eagerly examined the contents of the technique.
After a while, he showed a strange expression.
"Just this?"
Feeling something was amiss, Ye Feipeng read through the technique several times again.
"No, no. The Creation Forge Art sounds so mysterious, how can it be so rudimentary?"
"Could it be that it's too profound, and I am not qualified enough to comprehend it?"
For a moment, the fatty fell into deep self-doubt.
