Feng Hui held his sobbing little sister in his tight embrace for a long time. Slowly, he lifted her small head up a bit with a soft touch. Looking into her beautiful eyes, he tenderly pressed his right thumb onto her flawless forehead.
"Disappear." Feng Hui whispered. In a flash, the system within his little sister's mind promptly vanished without a trace.
In this brief moment, Feng Mei did not even know that her system and {Player Status} had completely disappeared. Instead, she only continued blankly staring at her elder brother. As if afraid he would vanish like the wind if she turned away, she didn't even blink for a minute.
Noticing his little sister's unease, Feng Hui coaxed, "Don't worry, I won't ever leave for good. It was Dàgē's mistake."
"Promise?" Feng Mei didn't release her stare; instead, she unwaveringly gazed into the pitch-black eyes of her elder brother trying to discover any sign of falsehood. Ignoring the golden strands of flickering light, she waited.
"Promise." Feng Hui smiled. In complete bliss, he hung his chiseled chin on his little sister's soft black hair.
"Listen, I'll bring back Mom soon." Feng Hui's thin lips crept upwards.
"Mom's okay?!" Abruptly, Feng Mei jumped up in shock banging the hard jaw of her elder brother.
"Yeah." Feng Hui smiled. Not even flinching from the collision, his voice was elegant and graceful.
"That's good… really good." Feng Mei continued bawling on his simple black robe. With a trembling voice, she whispered, "I'm so glad…"
"Me too." With a sigh, Feng Hui softly whispered.
Under the smiling of the three friends, Feng Hui let his little sister hide his embrace for a long time.
Sun Yi was entertained. With an amused smile, he laughed, "So, this is the amazing little sister you've always told me about."
"Yes." Feng Hui nodded, and he allowed his little sister to come out from his hug.
"Hello! I'm Feng Mei!" Feng Mei sharply bowed. With a flawless demeanor, her smile was unbelievably beautiful.
With an equally energetic greeting, Sun Yi smoothly bowed back, "And I'm Sun Yi! Your brother's friend!"
Looking at the two bright figures, Feng Hui's smile was blissful. To the side, there were also the two high school students: Nian Zhen and Wang Fang.
Acknowledging the two students, Feng Hui nodded.
Along with this nod, the two high school students respectfully bowed to the magnificent elder brother. At this point, Wang Fang was no longer arrogant. Over the last two months, he solely wanted to ensure their group's wellbeing.
While Feng Hui was watching his little sister and Sun Yi joyfully conversing, he sighed out of the blue.
"Mèimei…" Looking at his little sister's tired figure, Feng Hui was saddened. Feng Mei tried to hide it, but he could effortlessly discern her sleepiness. Sighing, he stated, "Come here, Mèimei."
Feng Mei nodded obediently, and she hopped toward her elder brother. Judging from her tired eyes, she did not have much sleep. In this dangerous world, how could one find the time to freely sleep in peace?
"Revitalize." Allowing his supreme Qi to revitalize his little sister's energy, Feng Hui examined her adorable oval-shaped face becoming full of life.
Eventually, his little sister's face was sparkling and colorful. Smiling, Feng Hui stated, "Much better."
Looking at her elder brother's familiar smile, Feng Mei wanted to cry, but she held herself back. In the time he was gone, their trio had become more experienced, more unforgiving, and much crueler.
Nevertheless, everything was left behind in the dark. Feng Hui had returned.
"Mn." Feng Mei wordlessly nodded. Seemingly, she had a million words to say, but she kept it bottled in.
Feng Hui did not force her words out. Everything took time. In due time, it would come flooding out like a never-ending waterfall.
In the grand scheme of things, two months of loneliness was a trivial time. As talented cultivators, Feng Hui and his little sister would live for an unbelievably long time.
"Mèimei, I have a question." Feng Hui smiled while looking at his little sister.
"What is it, Dàgē?" In this second, Feng Mei saw an amused look on her elder brother's face.
"Right now, is there anything unusual with this restaurant?" Feng Hui chuckled.
"I don't think so." Pursing her red lips, Feng Mei softly replied. However, she subconsciously started fidgeting due to his question.
With a smile, Feng Hui proceeded to ask his little sister's two friends, "What do you two think?"
Nian Zhen curled her plump lips. With an unsure voice, she kindly answered, "I agree with Sister Mei."
At the same time, Wang Fang also nodded, "Me too. I don't see anything wrong."
"Heh." Feng Hui chuckled. The black-robed man proceeded to turn around and ask the red-haired Sun Yi. Smiling, he inquired, "Brother Sun?"
Analyzing the restaurant and the fresh orc corpse, Sun Yi responded, "This is a two-floor building. There should be numerous orcs above us on the second floor. Generally, these orcs always move in groups. It's not likely for them to be alone."
Continuing, Sun Yi stated, "Furthermore, from the noise created by your group alongside the portal, the building is extremely likely to be surrounded by monsters."
On Earth, the total number of monsters reached the millions.
"Indeed. Mèimei, there's lots to learn from Brother Sun's deduction. Even without the benefits of cultivation, he could discern this. It's very impressive." Rubbing her little head, Feng Hui advised his little sister.
"If there are monsters above us and outside, why aren't they coming in then?" Seemingly, Wang Fang was somewhat skeptical of Sun Yi's deduction. The entire apocalypse, monsters would ruthlessly attack them.
"Yeah, I agree with Brother Wang." Raising her fine brow, Nian Zhen spoke as well.
Hearing this, Sun Yi silently laughed, but he did not let it show. How would the orcs dare to enter their floor when Feng Hui's domineering existence was mixed within?
"Mèimei, is this what you think too?" Smiling, Feng Hui asked his little sister again.
"Truthfully, I don't know. But since Dàgē is saying this, there must be something outside." Feng Mei honestly replied. In her entire life, she has always been wholly trusting of her elder brother's words.
"I suppose that's also a type of deduction." Feng Hui chuckled while clicking his tongue. A second later, he lifted his hand. Snapping his fingers, he controlled the laws of the world to disintegrate the material structure of the two-story restaurant.
In the blink of an eye, the walls of the restaurant fell apart. Furthermore, the entire second floor directly collapsed. With a loud scream, Nian Zhen screeched in fright from the falling rubble, "AHH!"
To Nian Zhen's astonishment, the falling rubble didn't land on them at all. With a calm look, Feng Hui created a golden barrier formed from Qi to shield the group.
"Oh my lord." Looking around, Wang Fang was completely shocked. There were almost a hundred orcs and kobolds surrounding the hotpot building. Furthermore, from the second floor, ten orcs fell through.
Surprisingly, the orcs didn't dare to move toward them. In fact, all the monsters created a sizable distance between their group and themselves. Correspondingly, the orcs which fell from the second floor straightforwardly ran away in fright.
In a straight line, the ten orcs faded into the distance never to be seen again. The entire time, Nian Zhen gulped at the inexplainable sight. With a wide-open mouth, she muttered in disbelief, "What's going on?"
To be surrounded was life-threatening. Usually, if this ever happened, the three of them would sprint away in fear. However, this time around, none of them moved. Instead, everyone simultaneously looked at the black-robed Feng Hui.
"See? It's crucial to understand one's surroundings; otherwise, the result may be deadly." Pleased, Feng Hui guided the three teenagers. After his explanation, he smiled while releasing his domain.
"Boom!" With complete control, Feng Hui targeted the monsters with his incomparably dense domain. Smoothly controlling the laws of Earth, the orcs and kobolds snappishly dropped to their knees while screaming.
Under the shocked look of his little sister, Feng Hui swiftly disintegrated the bodies of the hundreds of monsters. Around the restaurant, none of the corpses remained. Within the atmosphere, their vital Qi was the sole proof the monsters once existed.
