"Vent? Don't be so presumptuous. I'm here to kill you today."

Upon hearing this, Feng Yi frowned. Qi'er, usually so quiet and refined, suddenly erupted. Impulsiveness is the Devil. It seems reasoning won't work. Can't one just be a quiet office worker without seeking a life-and-death fight?

"Heh, very well then." Feng Yi sped across the ground, covering several kilometers in a flash, standing with hands behind his back, "If you wish to kill me, then begin your revenge."

"Tch, still have the nerve to be cheeky!"

Nangong Qi instantly appeared beside him, her eyes suddenly sparkling, unleashing her ultimate eye technique.

Her eye technique had been practiced to perfection, unmatched by Zi Yu.

But Feng Yi remained unmoved, not resisting or forcibly breaking through with the Third Law, "You can't hurt me."

Tch, did you really think I'd strike to kill? Qi'er's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her jade fingers quickly formed seals, continuously changing...

Bang!

A clock bell suddenly rang in the void, a holy light shooting from the sky. Even the sunlight became dim in that instant, with the golden rays being the sole color piercing the heart and soul.

An unusual occurrence always indicates something uncanny. If a person acts unusual, there must be a hidden blade. Seeing this scene, Feng Yi couldn't help but take a deep breath: "What kind of spirits and monsters is this? It's said the Nangong Family is a genuine sect of the evil faction. As a righteous person, don't overdo it."

"Hmph, watch my Punishing Heavenly Charm Technique. If I drain you dry today, it still won't appease the hatred in my heart." Nangong Qi bit her lip, her face turning a lovely crimson.

Why does she suddenly get aggressive for no reason? Although there's no evidence, it just seems abnormal. It seems I can't let my guard down.

"Haha."

With an explosive surge of energy, Feng Yi suddenly entered a breakthrough potential burst phase, his ultimate body filled with extreme destructive power. Under the dark force augmentation, he was like a solid black light, instantly suppressing all the golden light with his domain aura...

"With this level of strength, even if you stand there letting me hit you, it won't matter."

Don't mention Nangong Qi. Without the 120,000 times gravity augmentation of the White Dwarf, even standing still, the 'bizarre' could do nothing to him.

Nangong Qi was momentarily stunned. What kind of transformation is this? She didn't know Feng Yi could change forms. Isn't this cheating? I worked so hard to get this strong.

But she still decided to attack head-on once more. Under the influence of the dark barrier, her spells couldn't affect the outside world. As a result, her assault struck his body, and before even getting close, Feng Yi's aura completely isolated it...

"You've done well, but after all, you're not suited for close combat." Feng Yi truthfully comforted her.

This level would definitely stand against Mengdie. After all, Mengdie is someone who has crossed dimensions and comprehended different mysteries, and the power of eye techniques doesn't affect the user. So... against anyone else but him, victory over her wouldn't be certain.

"No need to say more, prepare to die."

Bang... As soon as she said that, her forehead was lightly tapped by Feng Yi, "Ouch!"

"What are you thinking?"

Nangong Qi, as if struck hard, quickly retreated a distance, "What are you trying to do?"

"Don't throw a tantrum. At least listen to my explanation."

"I won't listen." She pursed her lips, her gaze a little struggling. But people, when they're firm, have to stay firm. This time, Qi'er decided to defend her stance: "I'll come back." So, she turned and ran away.

But no matter how you look at it, she's just acting like a little girl throwing a tantrum. Who knew the well-behaved girl had a hidden side, truly...

A half-hour late, Feng Yi finally returned to Zi Yu's room.

"Brother Feng, you've been late for quite a while."

"Less complaining, it's a test for you."

"Ah, I see! What's next?"

What's next...

Feng Yi propped his chin on his hand, "You still have to fish."

Ah? Fishing again. Zi Yu fishes every day, fishing for big fish but never catching anything. She doesn't want to fish anymore; she's about to turn into a fish.

"Today, you're not just fishing. You need to calm your mind and attempt to sense the power within, mobilizing the force, channeling this Five Elements power into the pond, rather than just using gold element techniques. Though the Nangong Family specializes in the gold Five Elements, people's specialties don't determine their inherent attributes."

"But I only know gold Five Elements Technique, like the Golden Eyes, for instance..."

Feng Yi corrected, "That's the difference. Essentially, everyone inherently possesses the Five Elements. Take Mengdie for instance. Despite her extraordinary talent, her inherent attribute is wood, followed by water. Do you understand?"

"I get it, but there's no goldfish in the pond that Brother Feng mentioned. I've been fishing for days."

"Goldfish are possible; the fact you haven't caught any fish only shows you haven't tried hard enough, and your mind isn't calm enough."

"Oh, so that's it."

The naive Zi Yu was once again led by Feng Yi, and so she wrapped her knees and quietly fished for non-existent fish...

Feng Yi, on the other hand, jumped to a tree branch to bask in the gentle sunlight.

As for why Zi Yu needed to fish, the reason wasn't hard to guess. He, of course, had his purposes. After all, Nangong Ziyu was skilled in the gold Five Elements Technique. As the saying goes, gold generates water, water generates wood, wood generates fire, fire generates earth, earth generates gold; the power relationships stem from this.

Water encounters gold, no sound; water meets wood, forms; water and fire, harm; water and earth, buried; water and water, equals—If Zi Yu's constitution leans more towards gold, then no matter how long, the water surface of this pond wouldn't react.

The interactions of other Five Element properties might show slight changes, although these changes are extremely subtle, they can be easily detected by Feng Yi.

In terms of time, it depends on Zi Yu's comprehension. Feng Yi only knows four attributes are hidden within Zi Yu: gold, water, fire, and earth. If there were no gold within her, she couldn't possibly possess the Golden Eye Technique.

Additionally, the fishing stage helps to relax the mind and body, achieving unity, making it easier to uncover one's inherent attributes—As for how to trigger potential, that's not within his jurisdiction.

Feng Yi rested briefly on the branches, and upon reopening his eyes, he glimpsed Zi Yu's peaceful face.

Hmm, she seems to be in the zone, but who knows when her potential will manifest; girl, don't let me down.

Swoosh... Feng Yi suddenly vanished in an instant.

At this point, Zi Yu had entered a state of self-forgetting lucidity, carefully sensing the internal changes and using her Mental Power to guide, infusing this energy into the pond; unfortunately, even after several days, there was no reaction...

This period is expected to last at least a month? Adding to it, Zi Yu works every day, so her actual cultivation time is only in the afternoon.

But, working itself could be a kind of training. For Zi Yu, who hasn't experienced the world, society's grind isn't less than cultivation itself.

In this long-yet-not-short half-month period, Zi Yu had shed some of her initial immaturity, left behind her colorful knee socks, even forgot about manicures, and bought herself not so expensive yet stylish clothes — As for the gold earrings she pawned, there was a bit of regret not long after Feng Yi took the money to splurge, living a grandfather's life.

Fortunately, the money wasn't spent in vain; two days later, Feng Yi bought Zi Yu a pair of pants and shoes, although cheap, they were sturdy. In the name of reciprocity, of course.

Zi Yu thought, considering her as a fair, rich, pretty, innocent, and lovable girl, any other guy would be fawning over her, yet here she was, tricked and scammed, having her little money taken away, Brother Feng bullying her, "Sigh... what a shame..."
