Chapter 1500 - 1347: My Younger Brother Is the Villain 44
Because it was too boring, and Ruoyang was too noisy and greedy, within less than a year in the Secret Realm, all the delicacies Nie Shuangshuang brought were devoured by Ruoyang.Without good food, Ruoyang drooped his ears every day, his big tail hanging down, looking listless, pitifully gazing at Nie Shuangshuang with those big violet eyes.
Nie Shuangshuang softened at its gaze, could only roll up her sleeves, and cook for it. Naturally, Nie Shuangshuang’s cooking skills were excellent, but she hadn’t cooked in a long time, and was a bit rusty at first.
After a few meals, Nie Shuangshuang found her rhythm, and the dishes’ flavors were not inferior to those of the Ten Thousand Flavors Inn. Even her least favorite tasks, like washing dishes and cleaning pots, could be easily done with water spheres, simple and convenient.
Three years later, Feng Qiao, Gong Junbao, and Feng Feiyu emerged from the Inheritance Hall to see Nie Shuangshuang, dressed in a luxurious black and gold garment, sitting upright and grilling fish.
Opposite Nie Shuangshuang, Ruoyang, with his shiny fur, was lounging comfortably on the White Jade Table. In front of him, on the White Jade Plate, lay the deboned fish, and the rich aroma of grilled fish was wafting in the air.
Feng Feiyu looked at Ruoyang enjoying himself in front of Nie Shuangshuang with a complicated expression, feeling a slight sense of being out of favor.
Fortunately, as soon as Nie Shuangshuang saw Feng Feiyu, her attention shifted to him. She stood up and walked toward Feng Feiyu. Although her expression remained indifferent, there was a hint of joy in her eyes as she looked at him.
She reached out to touch Feng Feiyu’s head and tugged at his extremely ill-fitting clothes, "Feiyu has grown up, his clothes are too small now, and he looks more handsome, like a big kid. Hmm, the cultivation has already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, very good."
Now, compared to three years ago, Feng Feiyu was completely different. His once thin and short body had become firm and upright, and his sallow skin had turned fair and delicate. His features had fully developed, making him extremely handsome.
The challenges in the Inheritance Hall were unexpectedly simple, yet also unexpectedly difficult. As soon as Feng Qiao, Feng Feiyu, and Gong Junbao entered, they were separated, each into a separate room.
In these rooms was where they accepted the inheritance. This inheritance was very domineering; if one’s qualifications were insufficient, they could not accept it and would be teleported out of the Inheritance Hall, losing the qualification to inherit.
If one’s qualifications were sufficient, they would remain to receive the inheritance; the room was equipped with Fasting Pills to help focus solely on receiving the inheritance.
Once Feng Qiao and Gong Junbao came out of the Inheritance Hall, they headed south and north, respectively. Previously at the Nascent Soul Stage, after the inheritance, they both successfully broke through to the Divine Split Stage.
They are naturally busy crossing tribulation now. As both need to cross tribulation, they chose to go separate ways, south and north, to avoid interrupting each other during the Heavenly Tribulation.
Even Feng Feiyu had considerable gains; he was at the Qi Refining Second Level before, but now he had reached the Early-stage Foundation Establishment, and his state was stable with no signs of instability.
Looking at Nie Shuangshuang, who was expressionless yet noticeably gentle, Feng Feiyu suddenly stepped forward, hugged Nie Shuangshuang’s waist, and rested his head on her shoulder, "Master, I really missed you."
Nie Shuangshuang had a tall and slender figure, very upright, surpassing many male cultivators in height. Although Feng Feiyu was only nineteen, his height had grown to almost match Nie Shuangshuang’s.
When Feng Feiyu suddenly embraced her, the difference was more apparent. Previously, he only reached Nie Shuangshuang’s shoulder, but now he was almost as tall as her.
Feng Feiyu always believed he did not have deep feelings for Nie Shuangshuang, but during these three years of separation, although he was busy receiving inheritance every day, his longing for his sister Nie Shuangshuang grew day by day.
In his two lifetimes, Feng Feiyu had barely experienced much affection. When he was young, his adoptive parents treated him well, but at that time he was too young, and his adoptive parents died early.
He doesn’t remember much of those warm memories; instead, he recalls more the hardships of living alone, even with help from the village.
But everyone had their own hard life; giving him some food and clothes was already the limit. As for affection, even their own children might not receive much, let alone him.
No one ever pampered him like Nie Shuangshuang did, indulging him, taking care of him, wholeheartedly being good to him, even giving him such important inheritance.
So everything he wanted was placed in front of him without a word. Such intense affection left Feng Feiyu at a loss and also made it easier for his mind, which was not tightly closed, to be pried open.
Nie Shuangshuang hadn’t expected Feng Feiyu would suddenly become so affectionate. After a moment of discomfort, her heart softened.
She reached out and hugged him back, unable to resist teasing him: "You’re such a big kid already, still acting spoiled with Master like this."
Feng Feiyu couldn’t help but blush. He had hugged her impulsively and felt a bit uneasy after hugging her. As he withdrew from Nie Shuangshuang’s embrace, Feng Feiyu scratched his cheek.
His eyes wandered awkwardly, landing on Ruoyang, only to remember the time Nie Shuangshuang had grilled fish for the cat, making him somewhat sour: "Has Master taken on another disciple?"
Feng Feiyu said this because, in the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, it wasn’t uncommon for demon cultivators to be accepted as disciples. The sect was famous for having many demon cultivators, and given Ruoyang’s previous demeanor, he didn’t seem like a mere spirit pet, hence that assumption.
Nie Shuangshuang looked at the well-sitting Ruoyang, tilting his head while examining Feng Feiyu, and said to Feng Feiyu, "This is Ruoyang. I have just invited him as an elder for our Heavenly Mechanism Sect.
Don’t be fooled by his youth. He’s already eight hundred years old. He is a senior at the Out-of-Body Stage, and speaks to me as a peer, so Feiyu, you must not be disrespectful to Elder Ruoyang."
Hearing the cat was at the Out-of-Body Stage cultivation level, Feng Feiyu’s heart tightened, and he quickly set aside any previous petty thoughts, taking a step forward to respectfully salute, "So it is Elder Ruoyang. Junior Feng Feiyu greets Elder Ruoyang."
Ruoyang’s tail wagged happily as he looked at Feng Feiyu with excitement: "No need to be so formal meow, I like you a lot meow. You have to play with me in the future meow."
After speaking, Ruoyang rummaged through the Heaven and Earth Ring, and with a swipe of his paw, a pile of treasures appeared in front of him, all precious items Ruoyang collected over years in various Secret Realms.
Ruoyang pushed the pile of eye-catching Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures toward Feng Feiyu: "These are your meeting gifts meow."
The big violet eyes looked at Feng Feiyu expectantly. Ruoyang understood manners; it knew that when meeting for the first time, it should give a gift to the junior.
Feng Feiyu was stunned by Ruoyang’s action, mainly because a little milk cat giving him a gift like an elder was both adorable and strange, leaving Feng Feiyu unsure of how to react.
Finally, Nie Shuangshuang spoke: "Since Ruoyang is giving it to you, you should accept it."
