Lin Feng brought along three beast-eared maids and a dragon, and fought his way back into the trap maze.
The purpose of this trip was to level up the beast-eared maids and Red Scale while also testing Red Scale's combat abilities to see which level she belonged to.
"Whoosh!"
Arrows shot towards the three magical snakes, and they let out pained cries.
Soon, they fell to the ground, writhing and struggling with their snake bodies.
Yuna seized the opportunity to chop at their heads, one strike each.
After dealing with the three magical snakes, Yuna gently breathed a sigh of relief, "It's so nice to have you all here. Doing this alone is too difficult. I almost died at the hands of these creatures back then."
"These magical beasts that can launch ranged attacks are indeed very tricky to deal with." Rosa Linda looked down at her chest plate, where there was a shallow dent.
She had been grazed by the ice cone unleashed by one of the magical snakes just now.
Emily also breathed a sigh of relief as she looked around curiously, "If I was the one who fell in here, I would definitely be done for."
Lin Feng glanced at her.
This rabbit was quite self-aware.
If she was the one trapped in the maze, with her overall capabilities, she really might not necessarily be able to hold out until Lin Feng came to find her.
"Don't go running off randomly next time. I'd be very worried," Lin Feng knocked Yuna on her head.
Yuna's wolf ears drooped instantly. She seemed to be reflecting deeply, "I'm sorry...I shouldn't have run off randomly."
Previously, she had been quiet and well-behaved, but after living a carefree life recently, she had become somewhat restless.
It wasn't hard to understand. After all, now there was no need to desperately struggle for survival, and with abundant energy and nothing to vent it on, it was natural for her to want to run around randomly.
Thinking back now, Yuna probably hadn't been very active back in winter because her energy had been completely drained in certain areas.
From the corner of his eyes, Lin Feng noticed that Red Scale, who was standing at the side, seemed very happy.
She was grinning as she watched him scolding Yuna, with an expression of schadenfreude on her face.
This dog thing...
"Red Scale!"
"Huh?" Red Scale immediately stood up straight. She glanced at Lin Feng's expression and her smile instantly disappeared.
Next, she was dragged by her dragon horns and made to stand right at the front.
She had thought she was going to be singled out and thrashed by Lin Feng for smiling too smugly, so she hurriedly pleaded for mercy, "Boss, I was wrong! I won't laugh anymore, I absolutely won't laugh ever again!"
"What are you talking about? I'm not bullying you, I just want to see your abilities."
Without any hesitation or excuses, Red Scale immediately conceded, "I don't have any abilities."
???
Even as a level 35, she had previously been a mini boss in the maze. How could she not have any abilities?
If her wings hadn't been damaged back then, even with all three beast-eared maids present, they might not necessarily have been able to defeat her.
How could someone so powerful not have any abilities?
Thinking of this, Lin Feng got annoyed and kicked her on her butt.
Red Scale covered her butt with both hands, looking grievously wronged as she said, "You can't hit your wife..."
Lin Feng was taken aback.
Did she know what the term "wife" meant?
On closer thought, over the past few days, she seemed to intentionally chat with the beast-eared maids every now and then. She had probably secretly guessed the meaning.
She sure was clever.
"You're not my wife."
"I am!" Red Scale pointed at Lin Feng's nose and yelled loudly, "You...you said so previously! I suffered serious injuries and lost all my memories."
Lin Feng gave a soft snort.
He didn't expect her to actually believe his casual joking words.
"I was just teasing you."
"I don't believe you." Red Scale put her hands on her hips, looking completely justified. Her previous cowering manner had vanished entirely, "You can't hit me, and in the future, you'll have to give me food too."
Lin Feng suddenly felt that all she wanted was to freeload food.
"Do you know what a wife has to do?"
Red Scale pondered for a while, then shook her head.
Lin Feng stared into her eyes. He kept feeling that this fellow was very cunning, somewhat like Yuli.
"Tell me, boss. I'll shoulder the responsibility."
Lin Feng looked back at Rosa Linda.
Alright, she was standing very far away.
She probably couldn't hear him.
Then, he cleared his throat, "Firstly, at night when going to sleep, as my wife, you should..."
He had just spoken halfway when he was interrupted by rustling sounds.
Looking towards the source, there was an iron ant with a bizarre appearance.
It was about half a man's height. Its whole body was covered in dark gray iron armor, and its massive jaws that opened and closed looked like they could snap a person in half.
But this magical creature could sense that something was off about Lin Feng's aura. It did not rashly charge forward, instead pacing around warily.
Lin Feng pointed at it and asked Red Scale, "What should you do in this situation?"
But unexpectedly, Red Scale did not follow the script. She grabbed Lin Feng's clothes and coyly acted spoiled, "Boss, I'm scared..."
???
Lin Feng's head hurt. No matter what, she was still a dragon with explosive combat power. What was there to be afraid of from a lone ant?
"Can't you breathe fire? Burn it! It may look intimidating but dies once burned."
Red Scale seemed to have an epiphany as she slapped her forehead. Her eyes filled with wisdom.
Then, she inhaled deeply after a moment of preparation.
Seeing that, Lin Feng quickly retreated a few steps so as not to affect her performance.
"Ha! Ha! Hetui."
There were no billowing raging flames as imagined. Red Scale merely spat some saliva at the iron ant.
"......"
Lin Feng couldn't bear to see any more of this. The iron ant also seemed to mock her as it shook its butt.
"I told you to breathe fire, not spit."
"I really can't breathe any out!" Red Scale was on the verge of tears as she gestured non-stop with both hands over her chest, "I can feel some energy here but I just...can't bring it out!"
Hearing this, Lin Feng understood.
He gently placed his hand on Red Scale's head.
But Red Scale was very unruly, dodging left and right, as though afraid that Lin Feng would hit her.
"Stop moving! If you keep dodging, I'll make Yuna discipline you for real."
Yuna's ears instantly perked up when she heard Lin Feng calling her name.
Their eyes met.
"Alright, slowly close your eyes and feel my hand."
Red Scale nodded and did as Lin Feng instructed.
She didn't feel anything at first.
As time passed, she gradually sensed her lungs turning hot.
There was also a slight stinging sensation in her throat.
"Try again."
Red Scale didn't actually have much hope. But the moment she opened her mouth, jets of searing hot flames burst forth, turning the area up front into a sea of fire.
The iron ant was roasted into a lump of pitch black charcoal.
Lin Feng was very gratified.
Now there was also someone capable of large scale attacks on the team.
If they ran into a freakish number of magical creatures in future, he wouldn't need to personally make a move.
After burning continuously for some ten seconds, Red Scale gently coughed a few times as wisps of black smoke spewed from her mouth.
"My throat... hurts."
"Drinking hot water will solve this problem." Lin Feng passed his water flask to Red Scale.

uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight.

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.
