When Shu Feng opened his eyes, it was already evening and the sounds of crickets and rustling leaves coupled with the whistling of the chilly wind outside his residence made all calm and peaceful.
Shu Feng got up from his bed and walk towards the window and opened gently, afraid that a sudden loud noise would disturb this peaceful night. He inhaled deeply and let the chilly wind blow his face.
He looked outside and saw countless stars flickering with some blue and others red. He cannot help but nod in appreciation. Such scenery should be appreciated with some drinks and foods.
So he bought one piece of his favourite type of food that cost him 10 SP. He also bought one soda drink and a small box of fries.
This tranquil night didn't last long when sounds of footsteps keep on banging at the hallway. It become louder and louder with each passing moment until Shu Feng could not take it anymore and decided to teach that someone who disturbed his peaceful night.
But as he was just about to take a single step towards the door, it suddenly opened with a loud bang that made Shu Feng jump in fright that made him almost fell from the window!
"Brother! This boy is dying! He needs one those candies!" Kei shouted after he kicked open the door while carrying Fuyong in his shirt using his right hand.
Kei is not worried that the boy would die from blood lost since he already use his energy to cover all of his wounds.
'Pong!'
But what welcomes Kei is a loud smack to his head. He drop the unconscious body to the floor and duck over while holding his head with both of his hands.
"Aw...." Kei growls while massaging his head worried that a bump might appear. What did he do wrong? He is just trying to save someone but was punished instead?
"Don't shout! It's in the middle of the night!" Shu Feng shouted while showing Kei his left fist which he just used to smack him. His night is peaceful and yet this brat dared to shout and even kicked his door?!
"The why are you shouting?" Kei ask weakly with those pitiful eyes of his. He didn't dare to speak loudly, afraid that his brother would smack him again.
Shu Feng cannot find any words to retaliate. He just cough it off and ask Kei how did he find the kid. He could see that the boy is nearing his death already. Almost all of his blood got drained due to those deep wounds. He is quite lucky to meet Kei.
"Well, I saw him at the Inner Part. He is almost dying so I need those candies but I didn't have one so I rush back so I could get one from you Brother." Kei said.
"I thought you are cultivating here?" Shu Feng ask since he still sense him somewhere here at the Sky Mountain before he fell asleep.
Kei started explaining everything from the start without leaving any details. He even said how the boy face that Night Wolf and he could not even kill the Demon Beast!
And what's more, Shu Feng just nodded his head in agreement! Although he is amazed by himself, the brat should at least have a 'normal' combat strength just like Kei or Zise atleast! He even shook his head while lamenting how weak the human race is.
Shu Feng bought one Healing Pill from his shop that only cost him one System Point. He feed the unconscious Fuyong with the pill and help him digest. He carefully injects his Chaos Energy inside his body and use it to distribute the effects of the pill all over his body even so for his most severe injury.
Feng is not worried that the kid would suddenly burst from his Chaos Energy since he could control it just like how he move his hands!
The effect of the pill soon came to light as his wounds started to heal. Even the severe injury in the boy's left arm and in his left eye began to slowly repair itself at the speed naked to the eye! Such grave wounds could nor bw mentioned in front of the cheapest pill from Shu Feng's shop!
"Place him in the room just beside us and let him take a rest. We would ask him tomorrow about what he is doing at the Inner Part of the Demon King Forest at the middle of the night." Shu Feng said to Kei. The latter just nodded hia head and carry Fuyong before making his way.
The residence where Shu Feng is staying didn't only have one room. In truth, there are over five rooms in this residence but he chose the most wide and comfortable one. And one more thing, this room is the only one that has a Hot Spring in it so it came automatically that this is his best choice.
Shu Feng looked at the departing Kei before massaging his chin slowly. He is curious why someone as weak as him would venture inside the Demon King Forest and it was even in the middle of the night!
He could only think of two reasons. First, that kid is in dire need of some herbs or resources. But that is not enough to force someone to just throw their life away just like that. Second, the kid is just a pure idiot. And when he thinks about it, the second reason seemed to be more plausible.
He didn't keep on thinking about it anymore and just decided to finish his midnight snack first before going to bed. He closed the window and jump to his bed comfortably.
Kei brought the kid to the next room. He laid him at the bed and covered him with the blanket before going out and closing the door. He went directly to his brother's room and laid at the bed just beside Zise. The Little Guy is at the center of his two brothers.
The night passed just like that with everyone letting themselves drown in their drowsiness. But someone is not having a good night sleep.
.....
The morning sun lit up the atmosphere with his warm rays that melts the freezing dew in every green lush leaves and strands of grasses.
Shu Feng and the others are already awake. Even Zise who seemed to be going to sleep forever just made his come back and manage to catch a glimpse to his new daw. Feng looked at Zise and ask him if he ia feeling well.
The latter just nodded his head in understanding. Of course just like how their normal day went on, Kei and Zise immidiately began their morning verbal exercise which made Shu Feng smile wryly.
"Kei, go invite that kid in our breakfast. I want to ask him some questions." Shu Feng said while choosing some foods in his System.
Kei harrumph at Zise before carrying out his Brother's task to him. The Little Guy didn't fall back either and stick his tongue out while pulling the skin of his left eye with his front left foot like some kind of provocation.
...
Inside his room, Fuyong keep on rolling from side to side with beads of sweat flowing down from his forehead. He keeps on grunting like he is in pain.
He is suffering a nightmare! The memories of those ten cloak man and all the dead bodies of his friends and acquaintances keep on flashing in his mind. Inside hia nightmare, he is running in an endless darkness while catching his breath. He could see the illusionary image of his mother and sister.
He is glad to see them both fine, but just as he was about to reach them, they suddenly drop dead with those lifeless eyes and agape mouth!
"Hah!" Fuyong shouted and abruptly sits up. He looked around him and saw a foreign place that he had never seen before. He suddenly remembered all the events that happened last night!
He is fighting a Night Wolf and a Demon King appeared suddenly which scares the Wolf away. He thought that he would die at that moment.
He lookes at his left hand and he could not see the wound anymore! He touch his left eye and got amazed that it already healed and it could see clearly now!
"Am I in afterlife?" Fuyong slowly mumbled to himself. He could not think of any other reason why he is currently laying in a comfortable bed with all of his wounds completely healed without even leaving a single scratch!
