Everyone packed their things and headed back to the town. They were relaxed on the way back. Although the mission was difficult, they had gained a lot from it.

Along the way, Lin Bai’s clothes were wrapped around Zhao Fei’er’s butt, helping her block the exposed parts.

It was unclear why the demonic beast had attempted to attack Zhao Fei’er several times. Could it have recognized her as the team leader? If so, the creature’s intelligence was remarkable.

Lin Bai had been watching Zhao Fei’er from behind. A thought suddenly flashed through his mind. There was a phrase that went “Big…are easier to give birth”.

It would be great if he could marry Zhao Fei’er. He would definitely be able to have more children and his cultivation speed would be even faster.

Zhao Fei’er in front seemed to have sensed that someone was staring at her. She seemed to be walking a little awkwardly. When she turned around, she noticed Lin Bai’s gaze and quickly turned her head away.

This time, her clothes were all torn and she felt a little embarrassed.

Zheng Yu had been walking beside Zhao Fei’er the whole time. She looked at the clothes wrapped around Zhao Fei’er and said, “Senior sister, you never used to like touching things belonging to male cultivators. What’s going on today?”

“You talk too much. Why don’t you lend me your clothes?” Zhao Fei’er said.

“I don’t have any spare clothes. Just stick with Lin Bai,” Zheng Yu said and glanced at Zhao Fei’er, who had a slightly flushed face. She chuckled, “Don’t tell me you already have feelings for Lin Bai.”

“Oh, come on,” Zhao Fei’er pushed Zheng Yu lightly. “You know I’m not interested in male cultivators. I want to cultivate. I’m not looking for a partner.”

Lin Bai listened to their conversation and felt that he had no chance with Zhao Fei’er.

It seemed that it was not easy to marry a female cultivator in the cultivation world. However, he did not think of doing anything with Zhao Fei’er in the first place. He only felt that Zhao Fei’er seemed capable of bearing children easily.

It was still because he was not strong enough now. Otherwise, if he was strong enough, many female cultivators might actively seek him as a partner.

It seemed that he would have to trouble the little junior sister for some time…

Lin Bai’s thoughts ran wild.

Before long, everyone returned to Qingfeng Town. When the mayor saw the head of the demonic beast, he was so excited that he wanted to kneel to the team on the spot. Surrounding them were hundreds of townspeople who, upon seeing the mayor about to kneel, also knelt.

“Thank you, immortals, for your kindness and compassion in saving us.” The mayor said, and the surrounding townspeople kept repeating this sentence.

Looking at the townspeople’s excited expressions, it was obvious that this demonic beast had made them suffer.

At this time, it was already very late. Everyone decided to stay at the inn for the night and return to the Human Immortal Sect tomorrow.

Lin Bai had stayed on the mountain for many years and rarely went to mortal towns.

Everyone entered an inn arranged by the mayor. This inn didn’t look small. It was a two-story inn.

Such a lively place was completely different from the Human Immortal Sect.

“Our mission is basically completed. Now we have free time. Tomorrow, we will return to the Human Immortal Sect.” Zhao Fei’er said to everyone.

Then, she rushed to the second floor. She was still wearing the clothes that Lin Bai had given her.

Shortly after, new clothes were delivered to them, one set for each person. It was clearly arranged by the mayor.

Everyone’s clothes were damaged because they were fighting with the demonic beast. After changing his clothes, Lin Bai came out of the room and walked to the first floor.

Xu Xiaoran, Liu Dong, and Zheng Yu were eating on the first floor. Lin Bai joined them.

Only Zhao Fei’er had yet to come down.

From time to time, a few maids from the inn would come over to serve them wine and dishes.

The few of them chatted as they ate and became much more familiar with each other.

Xu Xiaoran and Liu Dong had both completed many missions before, but this mission was the most dangerous because the actual encounter with the demonic beast differed from the information and mission description they had received.

This demonic beast might have made a breakthrough recently. Otherwise, when the Human Immortal Sect assigned tasks, they would have assigned people with higher cultivation levels.

The maids kept bringing drinks, and Xu Xiaoran and Liu Dong could hold their liquor well. However, as cultivators, ordinary alcohol only made them slightly tipsy, and they wouldn’t get drunk.

At this moment, the people at the neighboring table were playing finger guessing. They found it intriguing and wanted to play it too.

However, the game wasn’t about who could drink the most but rather about the loser paying twenty spirit stones.

As the cultivators played “finger guessing,” their movements were incredibly fast, leaving afterimages. The people at the neighboring table were dumbfounded.

Lin Bai’s speed was the fastest, and his reaction was also the fastest. Therefore, not long after, he won a hundred spirit stones. He felt that if he continued to win, these people would be anxious.

“How about this, I’ll set a rule. The loser doesn’t have to pay spirit stones, but he has to choose between truth or dare.”

Truth or dare meant that after losing in the game, one could choose between truth or dare. The truth was answering a strange question asked by others, while the dare was doing something bold.

Lin Bai brought out a game rule he knew from his previous life, and the others found it intriguing.

Soon, the atmosphere changed. One moment, Xu Xiaoran was told to shout at the door that he was a cultivator in the Golden Core Stage, and the next moment, Liu Dong was asked to say “I love you” to Zheng Yu.

For a moment, the group was in high spirits.

…

On the second floor, Zhao Fei’er had just changed her clothes. She was holding the clothes that Lin Bai had lent her.

She used to be quite repelled by things related to male cultivators, but she had developed some favorable feelings toward Lin Bai. However, during their conversation, it seemed that Lin Bai had a partner.

Of course, she didn’t currently have any intentions of finding a partner. If she were to encounter someone she truly liked, she wouldn’t mind if that person already had a partner.

As soon as she walked out, she saw a fat man holding a woman and walking into the room on the opposite side. The fat man was still groping over the woman’s body.

Zhao Fei’er felt disgusted. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have stayed here. It had tainted her eyes.

She had always been repulsed by the intimate acts between men and women, considering them unclean. If she were to find a partner in the future, in her view, it would probably involve the two of them meditating together.

She frowned. As a cultivator, her hearing was very sharp. She had heard some strange sounds coming from the room that the fat man and the woman had just entered.

She couldn’t wait for tonight to be over. Tomorrow, she would return to the sect. It was better to stay away from this mundane world.

Zhao Fei’er thought as she walked downstairs.

At this moment, Lin Bai, Liu Dong, Xu Xiaoran, and Zheng Yu were having fun.

This time, it was finally Lin Bai’s turn to lose.

They had been drinking quite a bit, with four or five wine jars on the side, but none of them were drunk.

However, Zheng Yu was probably a little dizzy, and she had the most mischievous ideas.

Seeing that Lin Bai lost, she suddenly became excited and said, “Quick, choose between truth or dare!”

“I choose dare!” Lin Bai said. Anyway, as long as he didn’t take out spirit stones, he could do anything! He didn’t care.

Zheng Yu smiled evilly.
