The Once Feared

"Yue, cheer up. You're a good person, you'll find someone better than my brother," Ye Chuyin consoled.

"There you go giving me the 'good person' card again. If I can't even keep a man like him, where am I supposed to find someone better..." Xue Chengyue said huffily.

She didn't believe in this 'good person' nonsense.

"There are so many good men out there, why do you have to like my brother... I'm telling you, if you just walk around Imperial Capital University, you could pick up any random guy and he'd be better than my brother."

Ye Chuyin didn't have much experience with these matters either.

She'd been single all these years herself...

Xue Chengyue had grown up with them since childhood.

From the beginning, her brother Ye Chuye had only ever seen her as a little sister. He'd never thought of her in any other way.

Xue Chengyue was a girl, so naturally she couldn't be so bold as to confess her feelings.

She often relied on Ye Chuyin to help her gauge the situation...

She saw that Ye Chuye had been withdrawn for two years after his last breakup, and thought if she just persevered a little longer, there might be hope. Who knew someone else would snatch him away...

After comforting her for a while longer, Ye Chuyin ended the video call.

Standing on the balcony, she could see the neon lights still flickering in the distance.

The sky was beginning to lighten.

For some reason, Lin Feng's image suddenly popped into her mind.

That jacket of his was still draped over the sofa, she'd forgotten to return it.

"Where am I supposed to find a Wolf Exterminator..." she began to ponder.

The image of the Wolf Exterminator was already deeply rooted in Lin Feng's mind.

"If only I hadn't chosen that stupid name back then, it's such a hassle..."

She undid the few strips of cloth on her body and entered the bathroom.

Her skin was as white as snow, her proud assets still standing firm.

If she didn't bind them properly, they would bounce around when she walked.

These natural gifts, she couldn't refuse them, but what use were they being so big? It wasn't like she got any pleasure from them.

Sometimes she envied Xue Chengyue. Having a smaller chest meant fewer troubles, unlike her.

Even during battle, she had to pay attention to details, otherwise the swaying would affect her attack speed.

Usually, even when facing SS-grade Ghost Entities, she hadn't been this troubled.

She never thought she'd start getting headaches over this Wolf Exterminator business.

If she told Lin Feng that she was the Wolf Exterminator, would he feel deceived? Would it give him a bad impression of her...

A woman's mind started turning again. What bad intentions could she have? She simply didn't want to shatter Lin Feng's fantasy.

...

After finishing his writing, Lin Feng fell asleep immediately.

He slept until noon before waking up.

He ordered takeout from Haidilao, then opened his computer to check the latest news online.

Various accidents, disappearances, and deaths were increasing, with photos of missing persons attached to some reports.

One photo of a six-year-old girl caught Lin Feng's attention.

"Missing person... Ling Xiaoyao, age 6, went out to play on February 15th and has not returned since..." along with other detailed information.

Lin Feng's eyes widened slightly. He had seen this little girl before.

She was the girl who appeared when he was playing ring toss at Haidilao!

After a while, Lin Feng rubbed his forehead.

There was a lot of information on the webpage. In just half a month of news, over a hundred people had mysteriously disappeared.

"System, do you know what's going on?" Lin Feng asked casually.

"The revival of spiritual energy has changed many things in this world. Things will get even stranger in the future. You'd better focus on getting stronger for now," the system replied briefly.

Lin Feng suddenly remembered he hadn't drawn his reward from yesterday yet.

After returning last night, he had fallen asleep right after finishing his writing.

The familiar wheel appeared again for two consecutive draws.

"Start"

"Stop"

"Congratulations, host. You've obtained the life skill 'Culinary Mastery'."

"Start"

"Stop"

"Congratulations, host. You've obtained 'Medical Expertise'."

Not bad. Both draws this time yielded useful skills.

In his eyes, these were much better than those pills.

"Culinary Mastery LV1: Mastery of cooking methods for some common household dishes"

"Medical Expertise LV1: Mastery of acupuncture therapy for some difficult and complicated diseases, comes with a set of Five Elements gold needles"

He just briefly glanced at the skill descriptions.

These two skills also needed to be leveled up through practice. He could try cooking himself, but practicing medicine would have to wait.

At least he had no plans for that at the moment.

"Hmm, Wolf Bro replied," Lin Feng saw the latest private message in his backend. The Wolf Exterminator said he was planning to bring his aunt to visit Lin Feng's place tomorrow.

At first, Lin Feng was a bit worried, thinking his place might be too small.

He was afraid he couldn't entertain them properly.

But then he thought, Wolf Bro wasn't that kind of person.

Since Wolf Bro suggested coming over, he should just treat it normally.

"System, how can I level up skills quickly?"

"Didn't I tell you before? You can use hunt points to upgrade skills."

"How many points do I need to upgrade Culinary Mastery?"

"Upgrading auxiliary life skills isn't expensive. 100-200-300, increasing in that pattern."

"Then upgrade it one more level for me, that should be enough," Lin Feng said after some thought.

"Upgrade successful: Culinary Mastery LV2, unlocked some premium private kitchen cooking methods"

"Current hunt points balance: 750," the system announced.

"Now, what should I cook tomorrow..."

Lin Feng decided to cook himself, thinking it would be more sincere.

He also needed to tidy up the place and buy some groceries.

Lin Feng started bustling about again.

He had already decided on the dishes, now that he had mastered the skill.

It was as if his brain had been filled with a lot of new information.

As long as he had hands, he knew how to cut and cook various dishes and their cooking times.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his culinary skills were now on par with a chef with 60 years of experience.

That's how incredible system skills were.

...

"Miss Ye, you're not joking, are you? You want me to transform into that appearance?" Xiang Hui received Ye Chuyin's call and was a bit stunned.

"What, you don't agree?" Ye Chuyin said coldly.

"No, of course I agree. It's just a small matter, leave it to me," Xiang Hui didn't understand Ye Chuyin's purpose in doing this, but she rarely asked him for help, so he naturally had to oblige.

He put away the talisman in his hand.

Following Ye Chuyin's instructions, he used a transformation spell and began to change his appearance.

"The head needs to be bigger, preferably bald. There should be a full beard.

A big gold chain is a must, and the arms should be as thick as your thighs," Ye Chuyin described based on Lin Feng's imagined appearance.

After the transformation was complete, Xiang Hui took a photo and sent it over.

"Hmm, not bad," Ye Chuyin felt like something was still missing.

"The third tooth on the left side, make it gold," she added.

If they were going to do this, they might as well do it perfectly. She had put a lot of effort into coming up with this idea.

She decided that from now on, she would interact with Lin Feng more deeply in the identity of the Wolf Exterminator's aunt.

She couldn't destroy the image in his heart.

She would always be that kind aunt.

Yulan High School

"Gu Qianqian, someone from the academic affairs office is looking for you," Gu Qianqian was in self-study class when the teacher suddenly called her out.

She stood at the door of the academic affairs office.

She saw the man who frightened her...
