Chapter 49: It's All Gu Ni's Fault

Chapter 49: It's All Gu Ni's Fault

Chen Feng looked at the Purple Lightning Ferret in his hand, feeling somewhat surprised. 

He hadn't expected the system to reward him with such an adorable pet. Moreover, judging by the voice, it seemed to be female.

Chen Feng remembered that magical beasts could transform after reaching the Seventh Rank. 

This little critter looked so cute. Would it be even more adorable after transformation?

Thinking this, Chen Feng found himself quite anticipative.

"Master... what is this?"

At that moment, Xiao Xun'er leaned in beside Chen Feng, her beautiful eyes curious as she stared at the Purple Lightning Ferret in his hand.

"This is my pet, the Purple Lightning Ferret," Chen Feng introduced with a smile.

"How can it..." Xiao Xun'er's expression showed skepticism.

As a proud woman from the ancient clan, she had extraordinary knowledge and knew that high-level magical beasts could speak.

But could this cute little ferret be a high-level magical beast? She found it hard to believe.

"You want to know why it can talk, right?" Chen Feng guessed.

"Don't underestimate it. It may look cute, but it's actually a Sixth Rank magical beast."

"In a fight, even ordinary high-level Battle Emperors aren't this little guy's match."

Chen Feng rubbed the Purple Lightning Ferret in his hand and explained to Xiao Xun'er.

Sixth Rank magical beast!

Hearing Chen Feng's words, Xiao Xun'er was quite shocked.

This little critter was actually a Sixth Rank magical beast.

Perhaps, for the ancient clan, a Sixth Rank magical beast wasn't much.

But in the Gamma Empire, a Sixth Rank magical beast was almost invincible.

Xiao Xun'er looked deeply at Chen Feng, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes. Then, she remembered the terrifying strength Chen Feng had suddenly displayed that night. Even Uncle Ying, a Nine-Star Battle Emperor, wasn't a match for him. 

That kind of strength might have already reached the Battle Ancestor realm.

At that time, Xiao Xun'er speculated that Chen Feng had used some kind of secret technique to burst forth with such immense power in such a short time.

However, she herself was well-versed in the techniques to enhance power, rare secrets never shared outside the ancient clan. Therefore, she understood quite a bit about these types of techniques that could instantly burst with immense power.

Techniques like these usually had significant aftereffects every time they were used.

But...

Xiao Xun'er looked at Chen Feng, whose complexion was rosy, and a trace of doubt rose in her heart.

Why didn't he show any aftereffects? And earlier, when he bullied her, he showed such fierceness. He almost crippled her, yet he didn't seem to have any aftereffects.

Thinking about this, a hint of crimson appeared on Xiao Xun'er's beautiful face, looking quite alluring.

"Xun'er, what's wrong? Why is your face so red? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing Xiao Xun'er's flushed face, Chen Feng asked with concern.

"It's... it's nothing..."

Xiao Xun'er shook her head quickly, her beautiful eyes continuing to look at the Purple Lightning Ferret in Chen Feng's hand.

Having a Sixth Rank magical beast as a pet and possessing such a powerful technique...

Who was her master after all? Xiao Xun'er's eyes shimmered with curiosity, but then she remembered her current situation, and her expression dimmed.

What did her master's origins matter to her?

Now, she was just a small female slave manipulated by others, barely surviving.

Thinking about the image crystal in Chen Feng's hand, Xiao Xun'er seemed to have resigned herself, forcing herself not to think about these things anymore.

She focused her attention on the cute pet in Chen Feng's hand and curiously asked, "Master, what's its name?"

"It doesn't have a name yet?"

"How about you give it one? Didn't you say you wanted a companion? I'll let it stay here with you from now on. How does that sound?" Chen Feng indulged Xiao Xun'er.

"Really?"

At these words, Xiao Xun'er's face lit up with surprise.

She had always liked the color purple and often wore a purple dress.

Moreover, the little critter was covered in purple fur, looking fluffy like a ball of fur, incredibly adorable.

She naturally adored such a pet.

"When have I ever lied to you, Master?"

Chen Feng smiled, then placed the Purple Lightning Ferret in Xiao Xun'er's hands.

"Little one, from now on, you'll stay with... this sister."

Chen Feng initially wanted to say "Lady of the Manor," but considering Xiao Xun'er was just his female slave, she didn't deserve that title, so he immediately changed it.

In Chen Feng's mind, perhaps only when Xiao Xun'er bore him a few children would she be worthy of being called "Lady of the Manor."

"Sister! Sister!"

The Purple Lightning Ferret was very obedient. Perhaps smelling the lingering scent of Chen Feng on Xiao Xun'er, it didn't make a fuss when it reached Xiao Xun'er's hands, obediently calling out to her.

"So well-behaved, so cute!"

"Master, let's call it Xiao Zi."

Holding the Purple Lightning Ferret, Xiao Xun'er couldn't help but caress and stroke it. Finally, she said to Chen Feng.

"As long as you like it."

Chen Feng replied casually.

Xiao Xun'er, looking at the Purple Lightning Ferret in her hand, seemed to have found a slight solace for her empty soul. A faintly radiant smile finally appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Chen Feng relaxed a bit. It seemed like for a short while, this woman wouldn't seek death or trouble herself.

With the image crystal and the Purple Lightning Ferret, it was a double guarantee.

Chen Feng left the Purple Lightning Ferret with Xiao Xun'er not only to find her a companion but mainly to monitor her.

In case Xiao Xun'er suddenly lost hope, the Purple Lightning Ferret could stop her in time.

After that, Chen Feng asked Xiao Xun'er if she needed anything else, brought her some daily necessities, and then left the small world.

...

"Where have you been messing around now?"

In the manor, Ya Fei had already woken up, her complexion much better.

She looked at Chen Feng, sniffed the scent on him, her beautiful eyes narrowed, her ample chest forming an alluring contour.

"Chen Feng, my dear little brother, have you really turned bad? Come clean, do you have someone else outside?"

Smelling the lingering scent of Xiao Xun'er on Chen Feng, Ya Fei felt somewhat uncomfortable.

With her shrewdness, she naturally guessed that Chen Feng was fooling around outside.

She felt a bit resentful towards Chen Feng. Was this rascal's energy so high?

It had only been a day since she hadn't been with him, and he couldn't wait to go find another woman.

It wasn't that Ya Fei couldn't tolerate other women; she just didn't appreciate Chen Feng's philandering ways

.

She had only been in Wutan City for a few days, and she was still by his side. Yet this rascal went out to fool around; it was just too much.

Faced with Ya Fei's questioning, Chen Feng felt a bit embarrassed.

"Ya Fei, please don't misunderstand. It's not what you think."

"Was it that Gu Ni guy who instigated you?"

Chen Feng was about to explain, but Ya Fei's expression suddenly changed, and she bit her silver teeth.

Chen Feng hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, if it weren't for that old guy Gu Ni repeatedly tempting me, I wouldn't have made a mistake..."

"What a Gu Ni! I'll go find him for an explanation!"

Chen Feng hadn't finished his sentence when Ya Fei left in a rage.
