Chapter 530: Planning the Route
“This is the second time! What do you want to do?”
Zhou Feng looked at Xue Ji and did not have much of a reaction.
Even though Xue Ji was holding the map of the Eastern King’s mausoleum, he would not lose his sense of propriety. There were gains and losses. This was his principle in life.
Nothing was gained for free. Therefore, if he accepted this map, he might lose something.
As such, Zhou Feng was very calm.
!!
Xue Ji was honest and directly said what she was thinking, “I want to make friends with you. Don’t you guys like this kind of vague feeling?”
She did this naturally to deepen Zhou Feng’s impression of her.
At the same time, it could test Zhou Feng’s character.
Although Xue Ji said that she had chosen Zhou Feng, it was still in a probing stage until the last moment.
If Zhou Feng’s performance in one place were not enough to satisfy her, then Xue Ji would directly kill Zhou Feng.
After that, she would look for the next target.
And why was Xue Ji so honest, telling everything?
This should be considered a tradition of the Azure Fox Clan.
They would not play tricks or hide anything from their target.
They would choose to make everything clear from the start.
That way, there would not be any hidden dangers in the future.
This was also why the Azure Fox Clan had managed to captivate the former Human Emperor.
Putting everything on the table and not putting on airs was to let one make a choice.
It had to be said that compared to putting on airs, this method was very easy to gain the favor of many people.
It was also because of this that Zhou Feng did not choose to make a move.
If it were anyone else, given his temper, he would have long attacked without saying a word.
However, he really could not make a move for the time being when facing Xue Ji.
After all, Xue Ji could be considered his benefactor. He had obtained Heavenly Venerate Longevity’s inheritance because of her.
Moreover, she had even brought over the map of the Eastern King’s mausoleum.
‘Troublesome!’
Zhou Feng’s face was expressionless, but he was starting to feel a little troublesome in his heart.
“I’ll give it to you.”
Xue Ji seemed to be able to see through his thoughts.
She left the map behind, and a fragrant wind burst forth as she disappeared before his eyes.
Looking at the map on the ground, Zhou Feng picked it up expressionlessly.
He wasn’t a pretentious person. Since the map was in front of him, it could be used as a reference.
As for Xue Ji, Zhou Feng was a little helpless. He didn’t know how to deal with her.
‘Meat delivered to my door… Why don’t you eat it?’
Zhou Feng quickly remembered an old saying from his world.
He wasn’t a saint.
Why should he run away as long as there were no dangers?
Moreover, didn’t he recently acquire a new pa.s.sive skill?
It was impossible for him to be alone on the road to immortality.
Zhou Feng thought of the wear and tear problem that Heavenly Venerate Longevity had encountered in the later stages.
Would this wear and tear problem weaken if he had someone to accompany him?
For a moment, his thoughts were a mess.
Back at the Azure Fox Clan…
Xue Ji returned to the Azure Fox Clan, and a voice sounded at that moment.
“Yo! Isn’t this our good sister? Why hasn’t your little lover accepted you yet?”
“Has your little lover’s side effects from his rebirth disappeared?”
“…”
A few flirtatious voices started to mock Xue Ji.
Xue Ji had long gotten used to this.
She even started to mock back.
“There’s no need for you, my sisters, to worry. Not only has he been reborn, but his strength has even improved after being reborn!
“Furthermore, he’s alone. Can my sisters top that?”
In her words, Xue Ji had a strong sense of superiority.
After all, no matter what, she had a goal.
And Zhou Feng’s performance was indeed beyond imagination.
Why had Xue Ji been so anxious to use the Marriage Stone to find traces of Zhou Feng?
It was because she knew that Zhou Feng might face an extended weakness period after being reborn.
Someone would have to protect him during that period, and he also needed various resources to recover.
Zhou Feng didn’t know that Xue Ji had spent some time in the Eastern King’s forbidden ground for some time.
In the end, she encountered Zhou Feng by chance.
But the actual situation was better than Xue Ji had imagined.
When she met Zhou Feng again, not only did Zhou Feng not seem weak at all, but he was even more unfathomable than before. The potential contained in that fleshy body even made Xue Ji somewhat apprehensive.
There was also that method of draining vitality.
It made Xue Ji think that Zhou Feng had already inherited part of Heavenly Venerate Longevity’s inheritance.
Therefore, there was no need for her to protect him at all.
Given his terrifying potential, Xue Ji even thought that Zhou Feng did not lose out to some of the monsters of the Central Plains.
Of course, the most important point was that Zhou Feng seemed to have no confidants or be tied by love.
Xue Ji could be his main wife.
Just this alone made her situation much better than her sisters’.
“Hmph! B*tch!”
“In the end, I can’t compete with the cultivators of the Central Plains!”
“…”
When Xue Ji said that, she instantly hit the sore spot of many people.
Although the Azure Foxes were famous, there was one thing that all the Azure Foxes were sore about.
That was that they would never have the status of a first wife. Those monsters of the Central Plains would never choose an Azure Fox as their first wife.
Being pampered as a concubine was already the limit.
Therefore, those voices stopped when Xue Ji said she could monopolize Zhou Feng by herself.
…
Zhou Feng did not know that Xue Ji had directly won in the Azure Fox Clan.
He was carefully observing the map of the Eastern King’s mausoleum.
He also asked the AI to record all the information.
Finally, when he personally entered the Eastern King’s mausoleum, he would draw a more accurate map on the spot.
“The main burial room! This is definitely the final goal!”
Zhou Feng frowned and began to plan his route.
First, he defined the final goal of this operation.
That was the main burial room of the Eastern King’s mausoleum. There were countless large formations protecting it.
At the same time, various defensive mechanisms were left behind by the descendants of the Eastern King. It was the most dangerous place in the entire mausoleum.
Of course, this was also the place that was least explored.
Naturally, most of the treasures were there!
The descendants of the Eastern King had sealed the entire dynasty’s foundation there.
It was all for the sake of rising up again in the future. It was said that there was a stone forest in the core burial room.
This stone forest was made up of countless stone tablets, and each stone tablet recorded a divine ability.
Zhou Feng’s goal was that place!
He needed more divine abilities, and just a few divine abilities were not enough to satisfy his appet.i.te.
His second goal was the Spiritual Vein of the mausoleum.
The mausoleum had not only a broken Spiritual Vein but also many spirit herbs.
It was just enough to use as food for his body’s transformation.
“I’ll explore the left wing of the mausoleum first, then to the main burial room!”
Zhou Feng planned a route based on the marks on the map.
If everything went well, he planned to go to the right wing of the mausoleum to take a look. According to the map, countless spiritual and dao artifacts were buried there.
A lifebound artifact was naturally not enough to satisfy Zhou Feng’s appet.i.te.
He needed new spiritual and dao artifacts to equip himself!
