Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 781: Heavenly Fox Returns

"So, do you want to produce more of this weapon?" Cheng Gaoji asked.

Zhang Fei immediately nodded. "If it is possible, I want you to make 25 more of these weapons, and I will give them to the main members of my harem. That way, they can protect them better, especially when I am not by their side."

"The most difficult part to obtain in making the weapon is the Luminous Qi crystal, and I only have five in my shop." Duan Zhao nodded in agreement with Cheng Gaoji, especially since he himself needed almost two months to get one. "However, I can ask some of my customers to pay me with it, so I don't have to waste time looking for it. As for the other materials, they are sold freely in the Xianjin Realm, especially in the shop belonging to the Blacksmith Union."

"I plan to meet Ji Changlan, so you can give me the list of materials, and my clone will buy them once he arrives in that realm." Cheng Gaoji directly gave the material list to Zhang Fei. "In that case, I'll go back now, and—"

"Please wait, kid." Zhang Fei looked at Duan Zhao. "I know you want to take my disciples to the Star Tower, but three of them want to go to the Xianjin Realm with us."

From the expressions of the three men, Zhang Fei could immediately guess that Ah Hu, Lu Zhong, and Xian Xian wanted to go to that realm. "Don't you want to join them, Old Gang?"

"I want to join them, but I won't be going there anytime soon, and I will fulfill my promise to you to go to the Star Tower first." Gang Zhishou seriously answered.

Zhang Fei was satisfied with Gang Zhishou's answer, especially since he was a man of his word. "Actually, you don't have to think about that, Old Gang. I still need three to four months to break through to the Heaven Realm, and I will be able to create the gate to that realm soon, so I can send all of you to that realm easily. Therefore, you can join them, and I will pick you up once we are ready to challenge the tower."

"I see." Gang Zhishou nodded in understanding. "Okay, I'll go with them to that realm, and you must remember to pick me up when you are ready to challenge the tower."

"That's for sure!" After that, Zhang Fei immediately returned to the Red Sun Realm.

Zhang Fei was already standing not far from the Shang Clan and monitoring the clan using the Demon's Eye Orb, especially Shang Huaqiang's room. He smiled contentedly at his gloomy expression due to the disappearance of his dick, and he could see Fei Qinyuan thinking about something seriously at her husband's side.

"Heh! There's no point in you even thinking about looking for me, especially since you'll never be able to find me." Zhang Fei then checked another room, but he raised an eyebrow after he found Xi Yinying in that room. "That woman is too careless, and she should wait for the clan's situation to calm down. Fortunately, Shang Yanhan didn't notice her presence, or else she would have died in his hands."

[Why do you care so much about Xi Yinying, Master? Do you want her as your woman?]

"Xi Yinying is not bad, and her soul is as plain as white paper, so it would be a shame if she died because of her recklessness." Zhang Fei smiled faintly when Shang Ziyuan and Shi Wuxian started to satisfy each other because Shang Xishun and the others couldn't quell their lust, and the pill that Du Yuanjia gave them could only temporarily relieve it. "I don't know how Shi Wuxian was able to withstand the effects of my hormone manipulation for so long, but Shang Ziyuan was probably able to do it thanks to his unusual physique. Fortunately, my ability is not an attack ability, so he couldn't reflect it using his Reversal Mirror Technique."

[Are you interested in Shang Ziyuan's technique, Master?]

Zhang Fei gave a light nod. "I don't have any technique that can reflect enemy attacks, so I thought it would be useful if I could get that technique from her. Unfortunately, it's not easy to take her down, and I have to be more careful with her, or I'll be the one to fall into her hands."

Zhang Fei wanted to infiltrate the Shang Clan, but the protective barrier covering the clan was too strong for the current him, so he abandoned his intention and entered the training space instead.

As soon as Zhang Fei entered the Cloud Mansion, Xu Ling'er was already waiting for him in the living room. He immediately sat down on the sofa and lifted the little girl onto his lap. "Were you waiting for me, Ling'er? Where are Tasha and Wu Lianzhi?"

"Tasha and Wu Lianzhi have been sleeping for a long time." Xu Ling'er then hugged Zhang Fei. "Big brother, I am having difficulty sleeping because I am having a lot of vivid dreams, and they are all quite frightful. I believe my dreams are associated with Tian Huangjin, particularly because I witnessed a significant amount of destruction."

"Did you have those dreams after the Holy Radiance Crown chose you?" Xu Ling'er nodded and shared her dreams with Zhang Fei. "I'll look at them first."

"Yes."

Zhang Fei immediately closed his eyes and watched all of Xu Ling'er's dreams, causing his expression to continuously change for a while. 'How could such great destruction happen in that era? If I remember correctly, there was a mysterious figure that appeared in the era when Tian Huangjin lived, and it affected the living beings that lived in that era to cause a great destruction, wiping out more than half of the population.'

[Master, all the chaos described by all the paintings on the left wall of that place is too complicated, especially since they started from the era of the first living beings.]

'You're right.' Zhang Fei nodded slightly. 'Since ancient times to the present, all living beings have continuously brought destruction everywhere. Even wars have always occurred on earth because first-class countries are too ambitious to dominate other countries, and they use all means to achieve their ambitions, including provoking and selling war equipment to certain countries, without thinking about the consequences.'

[Why don't you act, Master? With your current strength, it is not difficult for you to dominate the earth, and you can destroy all those countries to become the sole ruler there.]

'Why do I feel that you are becoming like the evil AI in movies, Mei?' The female AI laughed in Zhang Fei's mind. 'Honestly, I am still curious about the past calamity that happened on earth, but unfortunately, no one has any records of it, and the ancient records in the heaven's library also do not record the incident in detail. I don't want to become the sole ruler on earth because earth is just one of the planets in the lower realms, and there is no Qi there, so it will only waste my time.'

"Big brother."

Zhang Fei immediately opened his eyes and kissed Xu Ling'er on the forehead. "You're right, Ling'er. Those dreams are memories of Tian Huangjin when she was still alive, especially since you were her reincarnation. However, you don't need to think about them because you have me by your side, and I will never let you or the others experience something like that.

"Hehe." Xu Ling'er giggled and snuggled into his chest. "I'm not afraid of my dreams because I know you will always protect me, but they keep bothering me because they appear in bits and pieces."

"The only way for you to get Tian Huangjin's intact memories is to find the remaining pieces of the Holy Radiance equipment, but I have no information about their whereabouts, and she didn't tell me about their location either. Therefore, we can only search for them slowly, and I'm sure we'll find them all one day." Zhang Fei then carried Xu Ling'er and took her to Ru Xue's room, especially since Shi Wu and Shi Xi were still sleeping in his room.

"Hmm?" Ru Xue, who was cultivating on the bed, immediately opened her eyes. "What happened? Why was Ling'er acting spoiled?"

"Mom! I'm not being spoiled!" Xu Ling'er protested as she jumped down from Zhang Fei's arms, joining her mother on the bed. "I kept having nightmares because of Tian Huangjin's memories, so I waited for big brother to talk to him about them."

Ru Xue pulled Xu Ling'er into her lap, hugged her, and spoke to her. "I may not be as reliable as Fei'er, but I am still the mother who gave birth to you. Moreover, I am no longer as weak as before, and I have improved a lot as a cultivator, so you can also talk to me if you are troubled by something."

"Well, that's true; you are no longer weak, Mom." Xu Ling'er leaned on her mother's chest and looked up. "Back then, you could only cry in the bathroom every time my father beat you, but you have become braver, and you have killed many demons or demon beasts since you became a cultivator."

"Why did you bring up the matters of the past?" Ru Xue asked with a shake of her head. "It's been almost a year since we divorced, and I'm Fei'er's wife now, so you don't need to bring up the past anymore."

Xu Ling'er pouted her lips in response, but she immediately lay down in the middle of the bed. "I'm starting to get sleepy again, so let's sleep together, Mom and Big Brother!"

Zhang Fei and Ru Xue laid down on both sides of Xu Ling'er and hugged the little girl, and they accompanied her until she fell asleep.

Ru Xue then looked at Zhang Fei. 'What exactly did Ling'er see in her dreams?'

'A complete destruction of an era.' Zhang Fei told Ru Xue about all of Xu Ling'er's dreams, but he had no intention of sharing her dreams with her because they were too scary. 'We can't do anything to stop those memories from appearing in her dreams because she is Tian Huangjin's reincarnation, and sooner or later she will regain all of her past memories. However, you don't need to worry about her, and I will make sure that she will never change after she gets them back.'

Ru Xue nodded as she looked at her daughter's face. 'I know you love Ling'er as much as I love her, so I believe that you will never let anything bad happen to her.'

'That's for sure!' Zhang Fei then told her. 'Since your cultivation and soul are still unstable, I want you and the others to focus on practicing using the suppression feature, which is beneficial for increasing your mental strength. That way, you won't have any difficulty using high-level techniques, and you won't be vulnerable to mental attacks.'

Ru Xue nodded in agreement before looking at him. 'Fei'er, do you have any clone techniques we can learn?'

'Hmm?' Zhang Fei was surprised by that. 'Why do you suddenly want to learn a clone technique?'

Ru Xue let out a soft sigh before sharing the results of her discussion with Zhang Fei's other wives, and they decided on it because they didn't want him to continue adding more women to his side, especially since the number of his women was already too numerous.

Zhang Fei smiled wryly at that. 'Is there a clone technique in the system shop, Mei?

[There is one, Master. That technique was quite unique, and it was supposed to be on par with your demon body double.]

'Why did you never tell me that technique?'

[Don't you already have your demon body double? I thought you didn't need that technique, so I didn't tell you about it. Moreover, the price of that technique wasn't cheap, and you didn't have enough jewels at that time.]

'Buy it, Mei.'

[Okay.]

===

{You obtained the Yin-Yang Splitting Avatar Technique x1.}

{10,000,000 blue jewels have been deducted from your balance.}

===

[Yin-Yang Avatar Technique: This technique allows a cultivator to split his or her body to create an avatar, either a male or female avatar, depending on the user's wishes. The avatar can cultivate separately from the original body, and the user can merge it back to exponentially enhance their cultivation base.]

'Oh?' Zhang Fei was surprised by the technique's description. 'Splitting the body to create an avatar, huh? Is this technique similar to Li Mengmeng's Avatar technique?'

[Since the system couldn't detect Li Mengmeng's status, I'm not sure whether the two techniques are similar, Master. By the way, you can learn it too, and your avatar can focus completely on cultivating here, so your cultivation will improve even faster.]

'How about it, Fei'er? Do you have a clone technique?' Ru Xue asked.

Zhang Fei immediately shared the Yin-Yang Avatar Technique with Ru Xue. 'Let's try to learn it first.'

Zhang Fei and Ru Xue immediately sat on the bed to study the Yin-Yang Avatar Technique first. A few minutes later, they attempted to use the technique, but the sensation of their bodies splitting caused them discomfort.

Soon, two avatars appeared in front of the bed, so Zhang Fei and Ru Xue immediately got out of bed while observing them. "These avatars are really good, and they are similar to your other clones, Fei'er."

"You're right." Zhang Fei nodded in agreement. "This way, our cultivation can increase even faster if our avatars dual cultivate with each other, and we might be able to break through to the Seven Divine Realm much faster than we expected."

Ru Xue shook her head. "We want to learn the clone technique not so that our clones dual cultivate with yours, but we want you to dual cultivate with them so you don't need to add more women."

"Haha." Zhang Fei laughed while rubbing his nose. "Since my cultivation still needs some time to stabilize, I will not dual cultivate with your avatar for now, so let your avatar cultivate by itself for the time being."

"Yeah." Ru Xue's avatar immediately sat down on the sofa and began cultivating there. "Fei'er, you can go to the others and teach them the technique, and I will accompany Ling'er to sleep."

Zhang Fei immediately went to all his official wives and future wives. He taught them the Yin-Yang Avatar Technique, which made them overjoyed. Since all his clones were busy with other matters, he went to the portable mansion and taught the technique to all his clones' partners.

After that, Zhang Fei brought Zhang Chen and his main family into the Cloud Mansion and told them about the technique, but he forbade them from telling the others about it.

Even though those people were all his friends and family members, Zhang Fei still wanted to maintain some gap between them and his main family. He didn't even teach the technique to his grandfather, Wang Zhetian, and his family.

Zhang Chen naturally knew Zhang Fei's character very well, so she did not refute his prohibition, and neither did Zhang Hanzhi and Qing Tan. Thereafter, he asked them to quickly learn the technique so they could cultivate faster by utilizing their avatars.

Sometime later, Zhang Chen and the others had successfully created their avatars, and Zhang Fei took them to a special room inside the cloud mansion, where they focused solely on cultivating.

After that, Zhang Chen and the others immediately returned to the training space, and they did not discuss the technique with anyone as Zhang Fei had forbidden.

Zhang Fei also went to the training ground, where he focused on practicing using the suppression feature to hone his mental strength, especially since his enemies in the upper realms were too strong for the current him.

Meanwhile, in the Sky Jade Realm, a gate suddenly opened in the sky above the western region, and five people walked out from it. They immediately checked the region, but their expressions looked upset because they couldn't find their target anywhere. "Do you think Zhang Fei has already left this realm, Tian Jiyuan?"
