Chapter 035: Power Gone Awry
Zhao Feng took two steps back. “Sister Xiaoyun, I have to go now!”
Wang Xiaoyun rolled her eyes. “What’s wrong? You finished washing?”
Zhao Feng shook his head. “Not yet.”
Wang Xiaoyun rolled her eyes again. “Then keep washing!”
“But, but…”
Wang Xiaoyun came up and grabbed Zhao Feng’s hand. “It’s just bathing together, there’s nothing to make a fuss about!”
“This…”
“Oh, enough! Hurry up and wash!”
“This…”
Wang Xiaoyun rolled her eyes once more. “You silly, scrub my back for me!”
“Isn’t that inappropriate?”
“There’s nothing inappropriate! We’re not up to anything bad!”
Zhao Feng took a deep breath, accepted the towel Wang Xiaoyun handed over, and nervously walked toward her.
At that moment, Wang Xiaoyun had already stood up, and Zhao Feng could clearly see her snow-white back.
He took a deep breath, then suddenly turned and ran, leaving Wang Xiaoyun behind, stunned.
Zhao Feng dashed up onto the shore and disappeared in a flash.
He ran in big strides toward his home.
In his haste, Zhao Feng forgot to put on his shorts.
He rushed to his house, only to find the door firmly locked, a tall wall before him. Zhao Feng frowned.
He thought for a moment and decided to just jump in.
However, when he tried to use his cultivation, he discovered he couldn’t access it at all!
Alarmed, Zhao Feng sensed his body. “What’s going on? Why can’t I use my first layer of Qi training?”
Panic swept over him. “What’s happening? This is ridiculous!”
He carefully examined his body again, but found nothing amiss.
He started pacing in circles, anxious.
“What’s going on? What’s going on?”
“What on earth is happening?”
Zhao Feng was utterly terrified.
Suddenly, the door opened.
He was startled, and so was Chen Ying.
As Chen Ying reacted, she let out a shriek.
“Ah! Pervert! Why aren’t you wearing clothes?”
Zhao Feng was mortified.
But now was not the time for embarrassment; he pushed past Chen Ying and ran straight into his room.
Once inside, he locked the door and leaned against the wall, gasping for breath.
Ten minutes passed.
Zhao Feng calmed down and checked his body once more. He confirmed that nothing was wrong.
He extended his right hand and punched the air.
“Boom!”
A white blast of air shot out.
Zhao Feng frowned. “What’s this? Why can I use it again?”
He pondered, frowning. “What’s going on?”
He couldn’t understand it at all.
At last, Zhao Feng gave up thinking. He threw himself onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
He slept exceptionally well—better than any time since he had returned.
Perhaps it was the joy of becoming a cultivator, or perhaps it was because he was one step closer to revenge.
In any case, he slept soundly.
Morning came.
Zhao Feng opened his eyes and stretched lazily.
“Ah! That felt great!”
He put on his shorts, donned his shirt, slipped on a pair of slippers, and went downstairs.
Downstairs, Chen Ying was mopping the floor.
Zhao Feng touched his nose awkwardly.
Sensing someone behind her, Chen Ying turned her head. Her cheeks instantly flushed.
Perhaps she remembered last night, or something else. She spat lightly and muttered, “Exhibitionist!”
Now that Zhao Feng was a cultivator, his senses were sharp; he heard her muttering clearly.
He touched his nose in embarrassment but tried to act normal, pretending he hadn’t heard.
A little later, Zhao Jun and his wife got up.
Zhao Feng looked at Zhao Jun. “Dad, today I’ll fix your leg injury!”
Zhao Jun was astonished. “Really?”
Zhao Feng nodded firmly. “Of course it’s real!”
“Hahaha! That’s wonderful!”
Zhao Feng smiled and pointed to the sofa. “Dad, please sit!”
“Alright!”
Zhao Jun sat down, and Zhao Feng approached him.
He rolled up Zhao Jun’s pant leg and placed his hands on his father’s leg.
Zhao Feng concentrated, and an image appeared in his mind: he could see Zhao Jun’s leg bone had deformed.
Zhao Jun asked eagerly, “How is it, son?”
Zhao Feng smiled. “It’s not a big problem.”
Zhao Jun immediately cheered up. “That’s fantastic!”
Zhao Feng said, “Now, I need to correct the bone’s deformation.”
Zhao Jun’s face turned grim. “Will it hurt a lot?”
Zhao Feng shook his head. “It won’t hurt.”
“Won’t hurt?”
“That’s right.”
“How is that possible?” Zhao Jun exclaimed in surprise.
“Heh heh heh!” Zhao Feng laughed. “If it were before yesterday, it would certainly be painful. But today, it won’t hurt at all.”
“Why?”
Zhao Feng only smiled, saying nothing.
Zhao Jun blushed and didn’t press further.
Zhao Feng smiled, placed his hands on Zhao Jun’s leg, and began to massage.
As he massaged, Zhao Feng released his inner spiritual energy.
The energy slowly entered Zhao Jun’s body.
There was a faint buzzing sound if one listened closely.
Zhao Feng slowly closed his eyes. A scene unfolded in his mind; his hands acted like an ultrasound, and he could see all the conditions inside Zhao Jun’s body.
Time ticked by. Suddenly, Zhao Feng opened his eyes.
He spread his palms, increasing the output of spiritual energy.
In that instant, Zhao Jun felt a warm sensation in his left leg.
A comfort beyond words washed over him.
Zhao Feng smiled gently. “Dad, your bone has been corrected. I’ll put a cast on it, and by this time tomorrow, you’ll be completely recovered!”
Zhao Jun stared at Zhao Feng in shock. “Is that true, son?”
Zhao Feng nodded firmly. “Absolutely true!”
“Hahaha!”
Zhao Jun laughed in delight.
Beside him, Chen Lan also smiled.
“At last, one of my worries is solved!” Chen Lan said.
The three of them laughed together.
As they were chatting and laughing, the door suddenly banged loudly.
“Bang bang bang!”
“Bang bang bang!”
Zhao Feng frowned. “Who could it be?”
Chen Ying eagerly stood up. “I’ll go open it!”
Zhao Feng nodded.
Chen Ying skipped to the door and opened it.
She paused, for outside stood two middle-aged women, each accompanied by seven or eight children.
Chen Ying blinked. “Who are you looking for?”
One of the women, head held high, said, “You must be Xiaofeng’s girlfriend. Call him out at once!”
Chen Ying frowned. “What do you want with Zhao Feng?”
“What do we want?”
“I’ll tell you! We are Xiaofeng’s eldest and second aunts. If you offend us, you won’t have an easy time!”
