Lin Fei pushed with his palm, and the heavy door opened in response.
Then, what appeared before Lin Fei's eyes was a spacious stone room, fully equipped with sofas and chairs, and it was very luxurious, even featuring a bathroom.
It seed to be the Yuan family's hidden living quarters.
And on the leather sofa, Lin Fei saw a woman of extraordinary beauty, the very person he had been trying to rescue all this ti, Yuan Yuxi.
At this mont, Yuan Yuxi also noticed Lin Fei entering the stone room. Her eyes brightened, seemingly in disbelief, and she murmured, "I must be dreaming; how could Lin Fei be here?"
After saying this, Yuan Yuxi lowered her head, looking sowhat lost.
Seeing this, Lin Fei felt both amused and heartbroken, realizing that Yuan Yuxi must have thought of him many tis and longed to see him.
But he had only just arrived, making her think he would not co and that it was all a dream.
"Yuxi, you are not dreaming, I have really co to rescue you." Lin Fei walked towards Yuan Yuxi with a smile.
The sorrowful Yuan Yuxi trembled slightly upon hearing this. She slowly lifted her head again, gazing at Lin Fei with surprise and doubt as he walked towards her.
Lin Fei reached her, extended his hand, and gently brushed her silky hair, saying, "Yuxi, I'm sorry! I'm just now getting here to rescue you."
Feeling Lin Fei's hand softly caressing her hair, Yuan Yuxi finally snapped out of it, realizing Lin Fei was indeed in front of her and not a dream!
Her spirit was revitalized, and her eyes bead with imnse joy, "Lin Fei, you really ca to rescue ."
Overwheld with happiness, tears of joy began to flow from her eyes.
Since leaving Huaxia for the Holy Dragon Continent, she had never stopped missing Lin Fei and wanted to see him every single day.
But as the days passed and Yuan Hong told her that Lin Fei had been killed by Gongsun Bin, she thought she might never see Lin Fei again.
In utter despair, had it not been for Yuan Hong sealing her points, preventing her from moving freely, she might have already taken her own life.
Yet now, Lin Fei stood truly before her.
"Lin Fei, Yixin, Grandpa, and the others are still in the hands of the Yuan family; you must save them." Yuan Yuxi urgently told Lin Fei as if she suddenly rembered sothing.
Lin Fei comforted her, "Yuxi, don't worry; I've already rescued Yixin and the grandfathers. Let's leave now."
Hearing that her grandfather and the others had been saved by Lin Fei brought a look of relief to Yuan Yuxi's face.
Then, with a hint of embarrassnt, she told Lin Fei, "My pressure points were sealed by Yuan Hong. You need to unseal them so I can leave."
Lin Fei imdiately acted and unsealed several pressure points on Yuan Yuxi's body.
As soon as her pressure points were freed, Yuan Yuxi instinctively threw herself into Lin Fei's arms, holding him tightly with her slender hands.
"Lin Fei, it's so good to see you!" Yuan Yuxi couldn't help but express her heartfelt sweetness.
"Ahem! ...," just then, a cough ca from the stone door.
Yuan Yuxi looked up and saw a young man standing by the stone door, instinctively asking Lin Fei, "Who is he?"
Lin Fei replied, "He's my friend Qiu Qiming, whom I t on the Holy Dragon Continent."
Qiu Qiming laughed and said to Lin Fei, "I didn't expect your wife to be a national beauty. No wonder you'd risk your life to save her. Alright, I won't disturb your alone ti. I'll go check out what treasures are in the Yuan family's underground vault."
With that, Qiu Qiming left.
Yuan Yuxi, satisfied, said, "At least he's sensible enough to know not to disturb our ti alone together."
Lin Fei tapped her head lightly with his finger and said, "Ti alone? We need to hurry and leave."
Lin Fei knew many matters outside still awaited his attention, like how to arrange the position of City Lord of Thousand Dragon City after the fall of the Yuan family.
Yuan Yuxi rubbed her head, pouting her cute lips at Lin Fei, "I've finally gotten to see you. Can't you let spend a little more ti alone with you? That tapping hurt my head."
Though Lin Fei spoke sowhat sternly, he wasn't truly harsh with Yuan Yuxi. He reached out to rub her head, asking, "Does it still hurt?"
A satisfied expression appeared on Yuan Yuxi's face as she replied, "No, it doesn't hurt anymore."
Then, the two of them exited the stone room.
As they stepped out, Lin Fei saw Yuan Hong standing motionless in the open space of the Underground Palace, realizing that Qiu Qiming had sealed his points.
The stone doors in the Underground Palace marked "Elixir Room," "Weapon Repository," and "Treasury" were all already open.
The scent of elixirs filled the air, and from the Weapon Repository's door surged the powerful aura of a Divine Weapon. The open door of the Treasury revealed a shining display of jewels and gold and silver gleams.
Lin Fei and Yuan Yuxi first entered the stone room nearest to the Elixir Room.
Upon entering, they saw that the Elixir Room was extrely spacious, at least several hundred square ters, with walls lined with cabinets displaying nurous bottles and jars. All appeared to contain elixirs.
In the center of the Elixir Room stood a purple-gold Pill Furnace as tall as a person, carved with several dragons.
Inside the Pill Furnace, flickers of firelight were faintly visible, and wisps of white vapor drifted from it.
Qiu Qiming, who had entered the Elixir Room earlier, examined it and then ca to Lin Fei, saying, "I took a look, and this Elixir Room has Ninth to Fifth Grade elixirs, mainly Ninth to Seventh Grade elixirs, with very few Sixth and Fifth Grade ones.
Even the City Lord's family has very few elixirs above Fifth Grade in their elixir collection."
Lin Fei told Qiu Qiming, "Young Master Qiu, take whatever elixirs you fancy. Now at the Yuan family, I'm the one in charge."
Young Master Qiu clasped his fists with a smile at Lin Fei, "Thank you, Lin Fei. Knowing you're in charge now is why I've already taken a bottle of ten Fifth Grade elixirs without holding back."
Lin Fei nodded, "Yes, no need to hold back."
Qiu Qiming laughed, "I'll go see what other treasures are in the other stone rooms."
With that, Qiu Qiming eagerly left the Elixir Room.
Lin Fei also wanted to see the Yuan family's other collections. As he was about to leave, Yuan Yuxi, looking puzzled, asked Lin Fei, "What did you an when you told Qiu Qiming you're in charge at the Yuan family?"
Looking at Yuan Yuxi, Lin Fei explained, "It ans I'm now the master of the Yuan family."
Yuan Yuxi was montarily stunned, her cherry lips forming a perfect "O" shape in surprise.
After a while, she finally reacted, "You're the master of the Yuan family? Does that an you handled everyone in the Yuan family?"
Lin Fei nodded, "Yes!"
Yuan Yuxi was stunned again, then her eyes sparkled with admiration.
"Lin Fei, I'm so impressed!" Once she said this, she gave Lin Fei a sweet kiss.
"Ahem!" At this mont, the dry cough sounded once more.
Yuan Yuxi saw Qiu Qiming, who had just left, reappear at the door, just in ti to see her taking advantage of Lin Fei.
Embarrassed, Qiu Qiming said sheepishly, "Sorry, disturbing you again! I just wanted to tell Lin Fei that when I enter the Treasury later, I might not be able to resist taking a lot of gold and Dragon Coins... um, I won't disturb your alone ti..."
With those words, Qiu Qiming vanished from the doorway.
Leaving Lin Fei standing there with a twitching corner of his mouth: ...
