Chapter 261: The Shang Family
On the airship!
Li Feng was somewhat speechless. They had just escaped danger, and now this guy was already setting his sights on the giant whale. Was that really a good idea?
The giant whale was likely a being that had glimpsed the Source Realm, or might even be a Source Realm creature. The entire Shang family combined probably wouldn’t even be a snack for it.
In the entire Great Xia Nation, at least on the surface, there were no Source Realm experts.
However, he didn’t voice these thoughts, merely offering a word of caution, “If you’re not afraid of death, then go ahead and try. But I advise you not to do that.”
Considering his words, he added, “Even Destruction Realm experts can’t give me this much pressure.”
The gap between the Source Realm and the Destruction Realm was like an insurmountable chasm!
Igniting the Divine Fire meant igniting one’s own Source Power; it was the most crucial step in becoming a god.
Hearing this, Shang Qing was a bit surprised. He didn’t expect Li Feng to be able to vaguely guess the giant whale’s strength. But he quickly calmed down, as Li Feng’s identity was already extraordinary.
“The research I’m talking about is not the same as the research you’re thinking of,” Shang Qing said mysteriously.
But he didn’t elaborate further. This was the Shang family’s greatest secret. He then teased Li Feng, “You haven’t even joined our Shang family yet, and you’re already thinking about us this much. The more I look at you, the more I like you. But my granddaughter still needs to have a look.”
Li Feng: “. . .”
For the rest of the journey, he remained silent. He really had no interest in continuing the conversation with this old man.
The reason he had warned Shang Qing was that Great Xia Nation was currently in turmoil, and he didn’t want to provoke the creature. Otherwise, no one in the entire Great Xia Nation would be able to withstand it.
Bypassing the Great Heng Ocean, the airship soon arrived at Flourishing City.
This city was extremely grand, no less impressive than Daqian City. The city was bustling with traffic, the economy was thriving, and there were many people on the streets.
Shang Qing didn’t immediately take him to the Shang family’s estate. Instead, they strolled through the streets. “How about it? This place isn’t worse than Daqian City, right? Get used to the life here in advance. Maybe you’ll come to like it.”
He was very thick-skinned, wanting to pull Li Feng into their Shang family, not hiding his intentions at all.
Li Feng was helpless. He had been wondering why the other party had brought him here to wander around. So this was the reason.
But for him, clearing dungeons was still the most important thing. So he said with a dark expression, “Senior Shang, let’s hurry up and suppress the dungeon! Otherwise, I’m afraid the other families won’t agree.”
The other party was really too long-winded and had ulterior motives. If it were someone else, they might have already attached themselves to this Shang family.
But he was a man of iron will.
Shang Qing said without changing his expression, “No problem, let’s go to our Shang family’s estate now.”
Li Feng looked at him suspiciously. He agreed so readily, could there be some problem with it?
But this time, Shang Qing didn’t play any tricks. He directly led Li Feng to the Shang family’s estate.
The Shang family’s estate, to call it a mansion, Li Feng felt was an understatement. It was a complete fortress, with several satellites orbiting in the void above.
He entered the Shang family’s estate, walking along a small path of blue stones. He walked for hundreds of meters before officially entering the Shang family’s main hall.
Along the way, he saw many young people of the Shang family, all looking at him with curiosity. But unlike the Li family, no one came up to provoke him at the beginning.
“Phew!” Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. This time, there shouldn’t be any trouble.
“Grandpa, you’re back. Who is this?” But before he could completely relax, a crisp voice rang out.
In the distance, a young woman wearing a white shirt and black trousers walked up. She had a delicate face and long hair that almost reached her waist.
“Impressive figure!” Li Feng’s eyes lit up when he saw this young woman because her figure was too good, impressively curvaceous.
◈◈◈
Shang Qing laughed heartily, “My dear granddaughter, let me introduce you. This is Li Feng. You should have heard of him, right? His reputation is quite big.”
Then, he introduced her to Li Feng, “This is my granddaughter, Shang Shu.”
“You’re Li Feng?” Shang Shu looked at Li Feng curiously, then muttered softly, “He doesn’t seem that special. Rumor has it that he has three heads and six arms, looking as tall as a small mountain. How come he looks like an ordinary big brother next door?”
Li Feng’s face darkened. Was this how the rumors were describing him now?
Thump!
Shang Qing couldn’t help but knock Shang Shu on the head, saying, “What nonsense are you talking about? You’re about to take the Gaokao. Maybe you’ll be schoolmates with Li Feng. At that time, you young people can interact more. If you have any questions, or encounter any difficulties, or get bullied, you can ask Li Feng to help you solve them.”
Li Feng inwardly complained, “You’re really not being polite, treating me like your family’s nanny.”
“Okay.” Shang Shu stuck out her tongue, then stared at Li Feng with her big, bright eyes, extending her right hand, “Big Brother Li Feng, it’s a pleasure to meet you for the first time.”
Li Feng helplessly extended his hand and shook hers. If nothing else, her little hand was really soft. If she hadn’t just slandered him, they might have been able to become good friends.
“Alright, go play. Li Feng and I have important matters to attend to,” Shang Qing said, shooing her away.
“What are you going to do? I’m coming too.” Shang Shu was very lively and refused to leave. She asked Li Feng what they were going to do.
At this moment, she fully embodied the youthful liveliness of an eighteen-year-old girl.
Li Feng glanced at her and said teasingly, “We’re going to do something very dangerous. It’s not suitable for a little kid like you. You should listen to your grandpa.”
He emphasized the words “little kid.”
“Humph, are you that much older? You’re just a twenty-year-old boy. What right do you have to talk to me like that?” Shang Shu glared at Li Feng and retorted.
“That’s a good point. But I can fight Awakened Level dimensional creatures. You probably haven’t even transferred classes yet.” Li Feng stood on the high ground of strength, his tone slightly disdainful.
He also felt a little lament in his heart. This Shang family was completely different from the Li family. The people here were all very pure.
Unlike the Li family, where the young people were all scheming and calculating all day long.
But he was also a little puzzled. How did such a family develop in Great Xia Nation, and become a behemoth no less powerful than the Li family?
“You—” Shang Shu was choked. She indeed hadn’t transferred classes yet and was still a Beginner Player. She stood to the side, fuming, but refused to leave.
Shang Qing watched this scene with amusement, then said to Li Feng, “Follow me.”
Li Feng nodded and followed behind him. They passed through one garden after another. He estimated that there were at least four back gardens.
The air in this Shang family’s estate was filled with the aura of wealth. He suspected that in terms of land area, neither the Luo family nor the Li family could compare.
Finally!
The two arrived at a spacious hillside.
