"What's taking so long, did you find the stuff?" In the car, Xiao Ya was also getting impatient. If it weren't for the Elixir, she probably would have left already.
"Got it back, please take me near Nanzhu Middle School." Tang Feng planned to rent an apartment on his own and then start gathering more herbal materials to concoct Elixirs beneficial for cultivation.
If only his casually used Immortal Sword and ring had also ended up on Earth, his cultivation would progress much faster.
"Tang Feng, where's the Elixir you promised me?" Xiao Ya really couldn't hold back any longer on the way there. Did this guy think she wouldn't remember if she didn't mention it? Truly annoying.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely give it to you. Sister Xiao Ya, could I borrow some money to spend?" Tang Feng was a bit embarrassed. After all, they were not very familiar with each other, and it was quite presumptuous. If she misunderstood, it certainly wouldn't look good.
"Do you think we are that close?"
"Aren't we? Didn't we do 'that' thing?" Tang Feng said with a smile.
"Shut up, bring it up again and I'll rip your mouth apart." Xiao Ya looked fierce, but the blush on her face didn't escape Tang Feng's eyes. Turns out this woman could also feel shy.
"I won't mention it again, rest assured. Once I've made some money, I'll pay you back," Tang Feng said.
"Hmph! I don't want your money. Just give me a few more Elixir pills," Xiao Ya said.
"Sister Xiao Ya, do you know the value of these Elixir pills? Don't just scatter them around carelessly; once they are used up, that's it," Tang Feng reminded.
"Bullshit, I don't believe that. How many do you want?" Xiao Ya stopped in front of a café and the next moment, her expression faded, "I can't help you, I didn't bring my wallet."
Tang Feng was stunned, then shook his head with a wry smile, "Never mind, I'll figure something out." He said this as he passed over a porcelain bottle with only two pills inside; the rest had been kept by Yao Xin. He hadn't expected her to keep so many; that woman was ruthless.
"Stingy, only two pills?" Xiao Ya complained.
"Still not enough? These are the only two pills left in this world."
"Alright then, remember to save some for me next time."
"I thought we weren't close?" Tang Feng looked at Xiao Ya.
"That was then, this is now. What, aren't you going to give them to me?" Xiao Ya glared, and Tang Feng helplessly nodded.
"Get out of the car. Do you really expect me to take you back to school?"
"Please, it's still raining. Take me to the school entrance, or I won't give you any Elixir next time." This threat had a powerful effect, and Xiao Ya, after flaunting her claws for a moment, reluctantly took Tang Feng to the school entrance.
"Thanks. You know, Sister Xiao Ya, being a bit gentler would be more charming." Tang Feng quickly got out of the car after saying that.
Xiao Ya covered her mouth and laughed at his flustered departure. This guy was actually quite amusing. Hmph, taking advantage of her kindness couldn't go unchecked. Looking at the porcelain bottle, she smiled. If she wanted, there would still be a chance to get more.
"This kid isn't out of money, should I give it to him?" Xiao Ya pondered over lending him money after watching Tang Feng enter the school, and she didn't drive away until after he was inside.
After entering the school, Tang Feng headed straight for the dormitory. He had rarely stayed there before, as it was usually his aunt who would come to pick him up. Thinking of his aunt, a warm current flowed through Tang Feng's heart.
He suddenly felt invigorated.
It turned out his aunt held such an important place in his heart that not even beauties like Xiao Ya and Mu Qingwan could compare.
"Young Master Tang, you got here so early?" As soon as he entered the dorm, the guy on the bunk above, Chen Xiaozhi, jumped down.
"Just you?" Tang Feng put his bag down and noticed his bed was piled with stuff.
"Don't look at me. Everyone thought you weren't staying anymore, so they put their things there," Chen Xiaozhi quickly said.
"Do you guys think I'm easy to bully?" Tang Feng said with a smile.
"Aren't you?" From the shower room, a tall figure came out, deliberately flexing his arms, muscles rippling, showing off his strength.
"Su Wudong, are there any of your belongings on my bed?" Tang Feng said calmly.
"Of course, I was the first to place them there before others followed suit, so what, you got a problem with that?" Su Wudong wasn't just the bully of the class but of the entire grade. His father owned a martial arts school, and growing up practicing martial arts, he had developed an attitude that disregarded others, often bullying the weak.
The former self hadn't been spared from the bullying, so Tang Feng didn't have an ounce of goodwill for this guy. "Remove the stuff from my bed within ten breaths' time, or else I'll throw everything outside."
"Haha, Tang Feng, I dare you to try," Su Wudong said with a scornful glance at Tang Feng like he wasn't even worth hitting.
Weakness, that was the label attached to Tang Feng, unkindly to the point where everyone saw fit to bully him. And due to his physical condition, the former self truly hadn't fought back, not wanting to court disaster, but was it really a lack of resistance?
It was just silence waiting to burst forth.
Now that the person had changed, there was no reason to remain silent anymore. Seeing Su Wudong's indifference, Tang Feng made his move, picking up the things on his bed and tossing them all outside the dormitory.
"Damn it! Who threw our stuff?" A few roommates who had just come back ran in angrily.
"Tang Feng, you're courting death." Su Wudong didn't expect Tang Feng really to dare to throw them, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, then he threw a punch, holding back a little because he was afraid of killing someone.
"Weisheng, lay off, no need to get physical," a figure rushed out, exchanging a punch with Su Wudong, and both of them took several steps back.
Tang Feng glanced at Rao Weisheng, not expecting this guy to have hidden his skills so well, but what was surprising was him stepping in; that was strange.
"Rao Weisheng, are you a fucking idiot? Didn't you see all the stuff being thrown out?" Su Wudong seemed to be wary.
"Tang Feng, what's going on?"
"It's nothing, just clearing out some junk," Tang Feng replied.
"Look, he's so cocky and yet you still step in; I'll beat him to death," said Su Wudong, ready to make another move, but Rao Weisheng still blocked him.
"We are all classmates and roommates; we've been bullying him for years, it's about time we stopped," Rao Weisheng intervened.
"Tang Feng, you're lucky today, I'll let you off for now," Su Wudong didn't want to clash with Rao Weisheng, there was no need for both to suffer.
Tang Feng didn't talk big, just nodded at Rao Weisheng and then started to arrange his bed.
Chen Xiaozhi laughed, "You're looking much better."
"Maybe it's because I've been eating well lately," Tang Feng didn't say much, and Chen Xiaozhi didn't press the issue any further, climbing to the upper bunk to read.
After tidying up, Tang Feng slept for a while and when he got up it was already evening, the wind was strong outside, and the rain heavy, the temperature had dropped quite a bit too. He got up, picked up his water bottle, and headed towards the hot water room.
"What are you doing, help!"
Passing by a clump of trees, Tang Feng heard a cry for help. Luckily it was him passing by, as others probably wouldn't have heard it. At this time, the wind was loud in the woods, and to the casual ear, only the sound of leaves could be heard, but listening carefully, one could indeed hear someone calling for help.
Tang Feng quickly ran towards the source of the sound, his ears zeroing in. After a dozen breaths, he saw a young man already topless, and he was unbuckling his pants, while another held a woman's hands, preventing her from struggling.
The woman was in despair, about to be defiled, when suddenly a figure flashed by, the young man in front of her was sent flying, landing on the ground and wailing in pain.
The other who had been holding the woman's hands was terrified, he didn't think, he just turned to run.
Tang Feng let out a cold snort, strode forward, caught the man, and threw him over his shoulder, the youth screamed in pain and then passed out.
The woman stood frozen, and then started to cry tears of relief the next moment.
Tang Feng took off his own shirt and wrapped it around the woman's front, "It's okay now, put this on and follow me out," he said.
"Thank you!" The woman, seeing Tang Feng turn away, put on his shirt, but it only just covered her buttocks, her white legs glaringly exposed.
"Alright, can you help me?"
