Lin Feng spent several consecutive days training Red Scale on how to be a good mount. There were some mishaps along the way, but thanks to Yu Li's reputation, everything was easily straightened out.
"I get it, I get it... I have to fly steadily and not jerk around." Red Scale's head was spinning.
Although she really enjoyed flying recklessly through the sky, Lin Feng had set some rules for her when carrying passengers. For example, no loud roaring, no sudden accelerations or rolls in midair, and no fireball invisibility tricks.
Seeing that Red Scale's flight skills had matured, Lin Feng packed up and brought the whole family out to the wilderness.
Red Scale transformed on the spot. Other than Yu Li and Kandis who were used to spectacles, everyone else cried out in shock.
Rosa Linda squinted at the prone Red Scale and murmured, "She's so big... She won't randomly bite people, right?"
Emily couldn't help but take a few steps back and whispered in agreement, "Yeah, she could swallow me whole in one bite."
Lin Feng glanced at Masha. Facing the hulking creature, her legs were slightly trembling.
To be fair, Red Scale's dragon form didn't look that terrifying to him. On the contrary, she had a bit of handsomeness.
People in this world must have an innate fear of dragons.
"Don't worry. She only looks scary. Deep down, she's still an idiot who won't bite people randomly."
Red Scale glanced at Lin Feng but didn't roar or make a sound.
After some effort, he finally coaxed them onto Red Scale's back.
When taking off, Lin Feng specially held onto them in case they were afraid of heights...
But before long, he realized his actions were unnecessary.
The beastkin girls quickly went from fear to excitement and curiosity. They craned their necks looking at the ground below.
The view was truly breathtaking―the cloud-wreathed blue sky, mountains, and forests...
Seeing them chattering nonstop, Lin Feng was reminded of his own excitement the first time he rode on a plane.
A journey that would normally take nearly a week only took Red Scale two or three hours flying.
If she wasn't carrying so many people, she could've flown even faster.
Lin Feng leaned over and peered ahead. An expanse of ocean came into view.
"Look, the stretch of blue over there is the sea," he said.
They looked in the direction Lin Feng pointed.
The horizon was a deep blue. The sea's surface was tranquil as a mirror, waveless except for the gentle ripples left by the breeze.
Seabirds floated over the water like white specks.
The sea was admittedly beautiful, more so than the seas around a certain southern island.
They stared, dumbfounded, until Red Scale landed and they came back to their senses.
After a long while, Emily mumbled, "It's so much bigger than the little lakes in our forest."
Rosa Linda also nodded, "I thought the sea was just a bigger lake. I didn't expect you couldn't see the edge at a glance."
"Isn't it gorgeous?" Lin Feng put his arms around their waists.
"It's not just gorgeous, it's like a fairyland. Can we live here in the future?" Rosa Linda looked at Lin Feng full of expectation.
"That won't work. There are few people here, it'd be inconvenient to do anything, even buying groceries would be an issue." Lin Feng thought for a bit before continuing, "Also, the seaside is damper. Being exposed to the winds for too long would be bad for your health."
Rosa Linda's face fell, her rabbit ears drooping down, "Oh, okay, I'll listen to you."
"If you like it, we can come here to play often in the future."
"I'd love to!" Emily immediately chimed in.
In that case, he should bring them here to play whenever they had time.
Lin Feng looked around. The beach only had their group. It looked like they had the place to themselves today.
At some point, Red Scale had already jumped into the water.
Most of her body was submerged. She only kept her dragon head above the surface to breathe.
Yuna and Masha had already run to the water's edge. The two looked down as the waves washed over their feet, fine sand slipping between their toes.
"Don't fall into the sea, you two."
"I won't, I'm just standing at the edge," Yuna gave a silly smile. "This is so fun, Master."
Masha plopped down on the beach, letting the waves crash into her butt.
Meanwhile, Kandis and Yu Li laid out a beach blanket and quietly watched the others play.
Lin Feng also went over to join them, admiring the beastkin girls in their swimsuits.
Suddenly he turned to Kandis, "We've come here again. Does it bring back happy memories from when you first brought me here?"
Kandis glanced at Lin Feng and helplessly complained, "What happy memories... All I remember is when we were young I brought you here and you dragged me into the bushes to flip me over all day..."
"Whether at home or out here, all you did was flip me... I feel like going on trips was just an excuse to flip me somewhere else."
???
Lin Feng thought back and realized she was right.
He couldn't help it. They were in their twenties back then, hot-blooded youths.
Plus Kandis always dressed so attractively.
Yu Li suddenly got up and moved far away. Her ear tips had turned red.
She was still a young girl after all. She clearly couldn't tolerate their indecent conversation.
Kandis was taken aback for a moment before suddenly asking, "How's your progress with her?"
"Same old. She's not at that point yet. Can't rush it."
"I thought with your personality, you'd sneak her some lustwater one day to force it." Kandis shook her head and flipped over. "Now that I think about it, her figure isn't your type. No wonder you haven't made a move."
"What are you saying, do I look like that kind of person?"
Kandis sat up slightly to observe the other girls' figures, then glanced down at her own.
None were petite.
"Have you taken a new man in these years?"
"After being tricked by you back then, it left a shadow. I was afraid of finding another man who'd just flip me every day. Before I realized it, being single didn't seem so bad." Kandis glared at Lin Feng. "I can go wherever I want with no attachments."
When she was younger, she dreamed of traveling the world, but Lin Feng's wishes were the exact opposite. So they split up in the end.
"Forget it, I won't chat with you about this anymore. Go play with them. I want to sunbathe alone for a bit."
Just as Lin Feng was about to leave, Kandis suddenly grabbed him again.
"What is it?"
"I'll be living together with you all from now on. You don't mind, right?"
"Why would I mind? You're just an ex. It's not like we haven't flipped before."
Kandis clenched her fist and punched Lin Feng.
"Then it's settled. I'll be sticking with you from now on." Kandis took a drink from a nearby water jug before continuing, "I've already gone everywhere I wanted. I'm looking for stability now."
Lin Feng's mind buzzed.
What did she mean? Did she want to rekindle their past relationship?
"You'll have to explain more clearly. I don't really understand your meaning."
"What's there to explain? We'll keep living together, but intimate acts are forbidden."
Was it his imagination? Kandis' tone sounded a bit odd when she said that.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
