Chapter 23

Early the next morning.

Ye Feng slowly woke up.

The room was dimly lit, with only a few Night Lumina Pearls embedded in the walls emitting a faint glow.

However, as Ye Feng awoke, the Night Lumina Pearls seemed to be infused with energy, their light intensifying and instantly illuminating the room brightly.

Ye Feng instinctively reached out his hand, trying to grab something, but found nothing.

"Hmm...?"

Ye Feng was slightly stunned before realizing that the Silver Dragon King had already gotten up at some point, leaving only a faint fragrance on the bed.

He slowly sat up and noticed that his clothes were still on, which left him somewhat disappointed.

Click~

At that moment, the door opened, and a familiar figure appeared at the entrance.

"You're awake. I made some chicken soup for you. Come, try it and see how it tastes~"

Seeing Ye Feng awake, the Silver Dragon King walked over with a smile and sat down beside him.

Today, the Silver Dragon King looked different. She was dressed in a simple long skirt and an apron, but her purple eyes still gazed at Ye Feng with the same tenderness, like a devoted wife and mother.

Seeing this, Ye Feng felt a bit dazed, as if the Silver Dragon King had become a different person today.

"What's wrong? Are your injuries not healed yet?" The Silver Dragon King, noticing Ye Feng's dazed expression, immediately grew concerned. She quickly grabbed his hand and infused Soul Power to carefully examine him.

"Thank you, Sister. I'm fine~"

Ye Feng hurriedly replied.

After a night's sleep, the minor injuries on his body had completely healed, though he had lost quite a bit of blood, and his Bloodline Power had suffered some damage.

The damage to his bloodline not only affected the progress of his Bloodline Unsealing but also weakened the power of his Soul Skills. It would take a day or two for him to fully recover.

"You're such a fool. Who told you to take it upon yourself to heal me? If I hadn't realized in time, you could have been in serious danger!"

The Silver Dragon King, recalling the events of the previous night, felt a bit helpless and pretended to be angry, pinching Ye Feng.

It was the first time she had encountered such a situation, and without any preparation, she had fainted from the pleasure. If she hadn't regained her senses afterward, she might have truly drained Ye Feng dry.

If that had happened, she would have felt guilty for the rest of her life.

"Here, this is a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Golden-Striped Chicken that I had prepared this morning. It's very good for replenishing blood. Try it..."

As she spoke, the Silver Dragon King brought over a porcelain bowl of chicken soup and carefully began feeding Ye Feng.

Though she pretended to be angry, her concern for Ye Feng was unmistakable.

"Mmm~ Thank you, Sister~ It's delicious~"

Ye Feng enjoyed the Silver Dragon King's feeding service with great satisfaction.

Compared to such a privilege, the little bit of blood he had lost was truly nothing.

"You're so grown up now. Can't you have a bit more dignity?" The Silver Dragon King lightly glared at Ye Feng, feeling somewhat speechless.

She was starting to suspect that Ye Feng had acted the way he did yesterday purely to stay here.

"Well, it's good to have no dignity. Otherwise, I wouldn't get to enjoy Sister's service~" Ye Feng, with his thick skin, felt no shame at all.

"Shameless!"

The Silver Dragon King grabbed a chicken leg and stuffed it into Ye Feng's mouth.

This rascal, Ye Feng, was truly too much.

Not long after, Ye Feng, who had eaten and drunk his fill, was once again driven out by the Silver Dragon King. This time, the Silver Dragon King even locked the "gate," directly prohibiting Ye Feng from entering or leaving.

The Silver Dragon King was also worried that she might not be able to resist the temptation to drink Ye Feng's blood again. Only by not allowing Ye Feng to enter could she completely prevent it. It wouldn't be too late to let him return when she woke up next time and missed him.

Ye Feng was quite helpless about this, so he simply returned to the Star Dou Great Forest and went back to the small wooden house he had built himself. He also knew that the Silver Dragon King needed to sleep, so he didn't disturb her.

However, this time he wasn't without gains. At least he knew that his blood could indeed help the Silver Dragon King recover from her injuries, and the effect seemed to be quite good. Otherwise, the Silver Dragon King wouldn't have been so dependent on it, almost draining him dry...

This time, it was mainly because Ye Feng wasn't prepared, or rather, his cultivation level was too low, and the gap between him and the Silver Dragon King was simply too vast.

However, as he grew stronger and his bloodline gradually unsealed, the healing effect of his blood would definitely become even more potent.

"When I become a bit stronger, my healing ability should also improve. By then, I can help the Silver Dragon King recover from her injuries earlier," Ye Feng silently encouraged himself.

Although this would take at least a few years or even more than a decade, it was still good.

After all, if things progressed normally, the Silver Dragon King's complete recovery would take twenty thousand years...

...

...

One month later.

Di Tian returned with good news.

They had established a small sect in the Heaven Dou Empire, named the Star Sect, located in "Tianmu City," adjacent to Heaven Dou City, with an excellent geographical location.

The name of the sect was naturally proposed by Ye Feng, and Di Tian directly adopted it.

However, the sect was still very small at the moment, with only a little over three hundred members, governed by the two Great Beasts, Bi Ji and Zi Ji.

Bi Ji's healing abilities, Zi Ji's management skills, combined with their formidable strength, only needed to be slightly revealed to attract many disciples and investments from their families.

After receiving the news, Ye Feng formally bid farewell to the Silver Dragon King and left the Star Dou Great Forest to travel.

He ventured into the human world, partly to bestow Lexical Traits, and partly to seek various treasures in the outside world.

For example, the Immortal Herbs in the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and the legendary Dragon Valley.

Hmm, there was also the Valley of Love and Questions. The greatest value of this place to Ye Feng was that it likely contained "Shattered Divinity," which could be of great help to him if he could devour it in the future.

When he had the time, Ye Feng would also make a trip to the Extreme North.

...

...

Meanwhile.

At Shrek Academy.

Yu Xiaogang, unable to rest easy about Tang San, finally chose to come to Shrek Academy.

When Flender saw Yu Xiaogang, it was as if he had seen a savior, and he was overjoyed.

"Xiaogang, you've finally come! This year's batch of kids is just too difficult to teach. I'm about to go crazy!"

Flender's face was full of frustration, and his gaze at Yu Xiaogang was filled with a plea for help.

"Oh? What's going on? There are actually students who can make the Cat Owl Flender feel challenged?" Yu Xiaogang was seeing Flender in such a state for the first time and was immediately curious.

"Yeah, I don't know what's going on either..."

Flender looked utterly frustrated and proceeded to recount everything that had happened during this period to Yu Xiaogang in detail.

The Shrek Seven were inherently "monsters," and they came from different places, with some of them already harboring significant conflicts among themselves.

However, ever since they returned from the Star Dou Great Forest last time, the tensions within the team had completely

erupted.

The once relatively harmonious team had recently been on the verge of physical altercations over various issues, forcing him to halt their training and separate them for a while.
