80: Chapter 80 Don't be obsessed with me, I'm a married man.

The cheeks of the Huangfu Sisters, Huangfu Yunni and Huangfu Yunshang, were burning hot, the heat spreading all the way to their ears.

In their minds, on one side was their father's suggestive remark, "We'll talk after we leave the Secret Realm," and on the other, the image of Jiang Feng playing Patriarch Qin Hai like a fiddle.

This man was simply a monster!

Jiang Feng watched their shy expressions and found it amusing, so he deliberately cleared his throat.

"Alright now, you two Princesses."

He spoke lazily, his tone full of teasing.

"If you keep staring at me like that, I'm going to have to charge a fee."

"Also, don't be too infatuated with Brother; Brother is a married man."

As soon as the words fell, two pretty faces instantly froze.

Jiang Feng ignored them, turned around with effortless grace, and naturally took the hand of Yao Shifei, who had been watching the scene with a smile.

"Fei'er, let's go, time to continue our great sweeping enterprise."

Yao Shifei smiled, letting him pull her along. She glanced back, her eyes brimming with a charm that made Jiang Feng's heart heat up.

Young Master Jiang Chen remained silent, loyally following behind the two.

Only the Huangfu Sisters remained, looking at each other, their toes almost curling enough to dig a three-bedroom apartment into the ground.

"He... how could he be like this!"

Huangfu Yunni stomped her feet in anger, both shy and indignant.

Huangfu Yunshang gently tugged on her sister's sleeve and sighed softly, though the eyes looking at Jiang Feng's back held emotions more complex than ever before.

In the following days, this Secret Realm completely became the backyard of the Jiang Family.

With Yao Shifei, a human treasure-hunting mouse, any aged spiritual plant had nowhere to hide.

Yao Shifei was responsible for leading the way. Young Master Jiang Chen was responsible for being an untiring laborer. Jiang Feng leisurely drank tea while supervising, and incidentally sorted and stored the collected spiritual plants.

The Huangfu Sisters had completely given up resistance. From initial shock to later numbness, they could now calmly follow behind the team as pure accessories.

Competing with this group in treasure hunting? Wasn't that just asking for humiliation?

The Jiang Family's harvest was shockingly large, filling several Storage Pouches to the brim; any single plant taken out would be enough for an ordinary Cultivator to struggle for several years.

Just three days before the Secret Realm was set to close, they ran into two groups of people in a forest of scattered rocks: Clan Leader Zhou and Clan Leader Zhu.

These two Family leaders looked no better than Patriarch Qin Hai had previously; they were covered in dirt and grime, and they had lost several clansmen behind them, clearly having suffered quite a bit in the Secret Realm over the past few days.

When they saw the refreshed group of Jiang Feng, the expressions on their faces were incredibly colorful.

Especially when their gazes fell upon the two Princesses following closely behind Jiang Feng, the hearts of Clan Leader Zhou and Clan Leader Zhu twitched violently.

Those were Princesses! The two most noble women in Huoyang Commandery! Now, they were acting like two little followers.

"Yo, isn't this Clan Leader Zhou and Clan Leader Zhu?" Jiang Feng acted as if he had just noticed them and greeted them with a smile.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, why do you all look so haggard, like you've been ravaged by a Yao Beast?"

The faces of Clan Leader Zhou and Clan Leader Zhu twitched violently, but they had to force out smiles that were uglier than crying, and their bodies subconsciously bowed.

"Jiang Feng is joking." "How could we compare to the Second Master? Our harvest is meager, truly meager."

This man's strength and schemes made them feel a chill from the marrow of their bones.

"Is that so?" Jiang Feng rubbed his chin, then as if remembering something, slapped his head.

"Oh, right, come to think of it, I think I saw that old fellow Patriarch Qin Hai a few days ago."

As soon as the words Patriarch Qin Hai came out, the ears of the two men, Zhou and Zhu, pricked up.

"He was running so fast, like his butt was on fire, and behind him was following a... hmm, a rather unique-looking big guy."

Jiang Feng clicked his tongue, as if savoring an interesting scene.

"I don't know where he made a fortune or what incredible treasure he obtained that could make a Tier 3 Demon King so persistent and relentless in its pursuit."

These words were said lightly. But to the ears of Clan Leader Zhou and Clan Leader Zhu, it made their scalps tingle!

Patriarch Qin Hai had obtained a great treasure! A great treasure capable of making a Tier 3 Demon King chase him madly!

The two quickly looked at each other, seeing deep greed and even deeper apprehension in each other's eyes.

They knew Patriarch Qin Hai too well; if that old thing really got such a treasure, once he got out alive and digested it, would there still be a place for their two families in Huoyang Commandery?

No, he must not succeed!

Clan Leader Zhu's eyes rolled, and his thoughts instantly became active. He stepped forward and cupped his hands toward Jiang Feng, lowering his posture significantly, more than ten times more respectful than before.

"Jiang Feng, our two families truly didn't harvest much this time, but we do know a piece of news that might... might be useful to you, Second Master."

"Oh?" Jiang Feng raised an eyebrow, becoming interested.

"Has the Second Master ever heard of Sunset Slope?" Clan Leader Zhu said, carefully observing Jiang Feng's expression.

"It is said that a True Artifact once appeared there, but... there is also a powerful Tier 3 Demon King entrenched there, which is very dangerous."

A True Artifact? Jiang Feng was truly interested this time.

He had already gathered enough spiritual plants; any more would just be icing on the cake. But a True Artifact was different; that was a treasure that could be passed down as a Family Legacy.

He didn't rush to respond, but instead turned to look at Huangfu Yunshang.

"White Two, is that true?"

Huangfu Yunshang's cheeks flushed hot at being called White Two, but she quickly adjusted and answered seriously.

"It is indeed true. A hundred years ago, a Loose Cultivator luckily found a broken True Artifact Flying Sword at Sunset Slope. However, ever since then, many people have gone in to hunt for treasure, but most never returned. That place... is very strange."

Jiang Feng nodded. With only three days left before the Secret Realm closed, there wasn't much profit to be made elsewhere. It would be better to try his luck at Sunset Slope.

"Alright, let's go and take a look."

Seeing that Jiang Feng had accepted their suggestion, Clan Leader Zhou and Clan Leader Zhu felt as if they had been granted amnesty and quickly found an excuse to take their people and slink away.

Half a day later, the five of them, including Jiang Feng, arrived at a completely different place: Sunset Slope.

Just as the name suggested, the entire hillside presented a strange dark red color, as if it had been repeatedly soaked in fresh blood.

The strangest thing was that nothing grew here; not even a trace of green could be seen. On the bare ground, there were only craggy, strange rocks.

Waves of heat steamed up from the ground, distorting the air. Standing here was like being in a steamer.

"Husband, my plant perception has completely failed here." Yao Shifei's delicate brows furrowed slightly, and her usually composed face was now filled with gravity.

"And the feeling this place gives me is very bad, very dangerous."

Even with Yao Shifei saying so, Jiang Feng's expression lost its playfulness.

He looked around; this barren land was filled with deathly silence and ominousness everywhere. All the heat seemed to come from the same direction.

Jiang Feng's gaze slowly swept over, and finally, his attention was drawn to a pitch-black cave entrance in the middle of the hillside.

The cave entrance was not large, only about a person's height. The surrounding rocks were scorched black, and waves of heat were continuously pouring out from inside.

"Interesting." Jiang Feng licked his somewhat dry lips; far from retreating, the corners of his mouth curled into an arc.

"The more evil and strange a place like this is, the more likely it is to hide good things."
