In the wasteland realm, precisely inside a cave in the eastern region. Zhang Xiaolong [3] was lying on the ground as he endured the pain from the lightning strike his true body had just experienced, and quite a bit of blood was flowing from his mouth. "Damn it! The lightning strike just now is truly painful, and my lightning tribulation seems to have not stopped yet. Fortunately, Shang Yaolin and Shang Xinyu are still busy with their affairs, so I was able to come to this place to hide." [Master, it seems you have to face a few more lightning strikes, so you’d better hold on. Moreover, your regenerative healing factor and lightning element instantly heal your wounds, so I’m sure that you can get through it even if their attacks are extremely painful.] Indeed, the pain in my body gradually subsided due to the combined effects of both. I hope the heavens don’t strike me with too much lightning at once, or I’ll really die." Zhang Xiaolong [3] then closed his eyes to focus on recovering his body, especially since it would also affect his real body. . . . In the succubi tower, Orith continued to pay attention to Zhang Fei [4], who was stabilizing his injuries. Although she was not surprised to see him in such pain, she was still curious about the origin of his pain, especially since she did not see anyone or anything injuring him. Experience new stories on freewebnovel.com "Hey! Orith! What actually happened to this kid? Why is he often in pain for no apparent reason?" Orith immediately turned to Zilvora, who was still tied up by Zhang Fei [4]’s ropes. "I myself am confused about it, especially since Elion has never been willing to explain to me the truth, and he only told me that his pain was the result of his old injuries." "Old injuries?" Zilvora looked at Zhang Fei [4] with a puzzled expression. "Where did you actually find this kid? How could he have the same ability as that fake demon emperor?" Orith shook her head at Zilvora. "Elion came to this city by himself, but he told me that he came from a small demon village in the eastern region. As for his ability, he probably got it after devouring a demon beast." "Can he really devour a demon beast?" "I’ve witnessed him devour demon beasts several times, so it can’t be wrong." Orith then looked at Zhang Fei [4] again. "In fact, he has many other abilities, and each of them comes from different demon races." Zilvora frowned as she stared at Zhang Fei [4] because she had never heard of a demon who could gain the abilities of other demons by devouring them. "Hey, let me go now! You two have kept me here for days!" "Haha." Orith laughed and refused Zilvora with a shake of her head. "My queen, you’ve been watching us have sex for days, right? Aren’t you interested in having sex with him? Even though we’ve been having sex for days on end, he’s not the least bit tired, and you’ll definitely be very satisfied to do it with him." "Tch! I’m not a shameless lust demon like you!" Despite her words, Zilvora had been tempted to have sex with Zhang Fei for a long time, but her pride as a demon queen prevented her from doing so. *Knock... Knock...* "Lady Orith, Lord Yhrer has come here to see you." Orith frowned upon hearing the report from one of her subordinates. "Tell Yhrer that I do not wish to meet him, and also tell him that I am accompanying Queen Zilvora. If he dares to insist on meeting me, then she will punish him severely, including killing him." Zilvora was annoyed that Orith used her name to scare Yhrer, but she didn’t say anything about it. She was more interested in Zhang Fei [4], and she wanted to find out about his secrets, but she obviously couldn’t bother him now. ’If I look closely, this kid is not bad, and he has many abilities. If his demon rank reaches the king rank, he will definitely surpass me and the others, and he might even reach the emperor rank before us.’ . . . In the Nine Stars Realm, Zhang Fei [1] and Feltia [2] ceased their activities and concentrated on healing their injuries, particularly since the original Zhang Fei still had to face the upcoming lightning attack. Zhang Chen, who was very worried about her grandson, did not help the others to build their residence, and she just sat among his clones while wiping their sweat. Zhang Fei himself was still floating high in the sky with his eyes closed, but he continued to channel the lightning he had absorbed from the previous attack into his three souls and four cores to strengthen them, and he did not stop channeling his light element to heal his body. However, Zhang Fei was not alone there, and the thunderbird was already below him because he had almost lost his balance after being hit by the first lightning attack. Moreover, Zhang Fei’s lightning tribulation would be useful to him, so Lei Que decided to help him by supporting his body. Since he had a high affinity for lightning elements, the thunderbird could see that the heavens were brewing stronger lightning to attack his master. ’What exactly has my master done? Why are the heavens testing him so hard?’ Below them, Boitata and the others were anxiously awaiting the next attack from Zhang Fei’s lightning tribulation. They sensed that the upcoming attack would be more powerful than the previous one, and they were genuinely concerned that he might not be able to withstand it. Xian Feng and Shi Qingzhuang, who were watching Zhang Fei from a distance, also looked tense. Although they still didn’t know him, his three souls and four cores were more than enough to convince them that he was not an ordinary cultivator, and it would be a shame if he died because of his lightning tribulation. An hour had elapsed, yet Zhang Fei’s next lightning tribulation had not yet descended. Instead, the lightning in the sky continued to strengthen, and the rumbling became louder, which caused all of them to become even more tense. Unbeknownst to them, a small beast’s figure similar to a cat appeared behind the clouds, but it did not have a real body, and its body was made of lightning as if it were lightning itself. It gazed at Zhang Fei for some time before turning its attention to his lightning tribulation, but it remained motionless and patiently waited for his lightning to descend. *Zap... Zap... Zap...* Two hours later, the second lightning finally descended from the sky at full speed before striking and electrocuting Zhang Fei and the thunderbird at the same time, causing both of them to scream in pain. "Argh!" *Scree!* *Splurt* Immediately, Zhang Fei vomited copious amounts from his mouth, and the lightning’s burns turned his entire body black, causing him to collapse onto the thunderbird’s back. His five clones also suffered the same, and all of them experienced excruciating pain in their respective places. Even though he was in so much pain and his consciousness was slowly fading, Zhang Fei tried hard to channel the lightning into his three souls and four cores as quickly as possible, especially since it would be a waste if he fell unconscious before doing so. [Ding] [Congratulations! The host’s cultivation broke through to 1 Star Earth Realm.] [Congratulations! The host’s Heavenly Body Tempering has been upgraded to level three.] [Congratulations! The host’s Lightning Body Technique has been upgraded to intermediate level.] Unlike Zhang Fei, the thunderbird did not suffer the slightest injury because of his lightning element, and Lei Que absorbed the lightning into his body to strengthen himself. Once Zhang Fei’s lightning tribulation vanished, the sky brightened once more, and the small lightning beast gazed at him for a while before swiftly leaving the area. In the distance, Xian Feng and Shi Qinzhuang were also relieved to see that Zhang Fei had successfully survived his lightning tribulation, even though his condition was not that good, and they immediately returned to their palace, waiting for him to come to their kingdom. After he finished absorbing it, Lei Que brought Zhang Fei to land in front of the seven women, and they were completely panicked seeing their husband’s condition. Zhang Lingxue quickly moved to check on Zhang Fei’s condition, and she immediately forced him to swallow some healing pills that he had given her in the past. "It’s okay, I’m still alive, so you guys don’t have to worry about me." Zhang Fei immediately returned his three souls and four cores into his body before falling unconscious. Despite Zhang Fei’s words, the seven women’s hearts remained unrelieved, and the thunderbird swiftly escorted them to their residence location. Despite experiencing extreme pain, Zhang Fei’s two clones fared better than his original body because the lightning did not directly strike them. One of them immediately sent him and all his wives into the training space. Elmyra, the elf leader, also joined them, allowing him to recover faster due to the difference in time flow. Zhang Fei [1] and Feltia [2] chose to stay outside and continue building their residence while recovering from their condition, particularly considering the significant amount of time they had previously wasted. . . . Liu Qingyu, Ru Xue, and Elmyra were treating Zhang Fei with their light elements, and his other wives were standing around the bed while keeping an eye on him. However, they were no longer as tense or panicked as before because his regenerative healing factor continued to work on its own, and his external injuries were gradually healing, causing his burns to slowly disappear. A few hours later, Zhang Fei’s body had returned to normal, but he was still unconscious. Despite this, his condition had stabilized, prompting Liu Qingyu and Ru Xue to immediately withdraw their light qi and exhale in relief. "I didn’t expect the second lightning strike to be so powerful, and it was even stronger than when Boitata broke through a few months ago. Fortunately, our husband has his two body cultivation technique, and he has also been training with Lei Que for the past few weeks. However, what helped him the most was his healing ability, and he would have died if not for that." Elmyra nodded in agreement with Liu Qingyu. "I don’t know where he got his healing ability from, but it’s really strong, and it can even operate on its own even when he’s unconscious, which helps him preserve his life." "For now, our husband’s condition has completely stabilized, and we just need to wait for him to wake up." Ru Xue added. "Rather than waiting here, I think it would be better if we go back out, and we can help them build our residence." "How can we get out of this place? Only our husband can open the exit portal, remember?" "Hahaha! Isn’t that easy, Xueyi?" Boitata asked with a laugh. "They are humans, but we are beasts, and we can go in and out of his beast space easily. That’s why we just need to get in there, and his clones can hear us, so one of them can take us out." After that, Boitata immediately entered the beast space and contacted one of Zhang Fei’s clones, and the exit portal right away opened in front of them shortly after, so they rushed back to the Nine Stars Realm to help the others. However, Zhang Yue did not join them, and she preferred to accompany her little brother. Moreover, her ice element was useless to help them, and their numbers were already large enough to continue building their residence. Zhang Yue immediately lay down beside Zhang Fei, hugged him, and kissed his lips. "Fei’er, I know you want to be strong to protect all of us, but I’m really afraid that something will happen to you if you keep pushing yourself this hard. I hope you can take better care of yourself, or I will be miserable if I lose you." . . . On Earth, Huang Rong and the six women were already ready in their new shop, and they looked excitedly waiting for the time to arrive. After Zhang Fei [5] sent them items from the Sky Jade Realm a few days ago, all the shelves inside were already filled, and the warehouse on the second floor was also filled with a large amount of stock, allowing them to start opening their shop. Regarding the advertisements for the new shop and products, Huang Rong didn’t need to create new ones; instead, she opted to utilize the same ones that were previously used to promote everything in their country. Unlike them, Jiang Yinghua curiously looked at each product on the shelves, especially since all of them were not available on Earth and only they had them. ’Where did they get all these items? These items are definitely not demon items, but they are something else, and their effects are also more significant than those available in this realm. Moreover, the demon still hasn’t appeared, even though I’ve been watching Huang Rong’s house for several days, but they suddenly got their stocks.’ *Clang* Jiang Yinghua immediately turned towards the entrance, and she saw Huang Rong approaching Zhang Fei [5], who had just arrived. She raised her eyebrows as the other six women approached him, and their expressions filled with excitement. ’A human? At first, I thought their lover was a demon because of the demon scent on their bodies, but he was clearly a human because I couldn’t feel any demon scent or aura from his body.’ "Why is your face so pale?" Yang Lu’er inquired as she touched Zhang Fei [5]’s face. Zhang Fei [5] shook his head and pulled Yang Lu’er’s hands down. "I just finished doing something strenuous, so my condition isn’t at its peak right now. However, you guys don’t have to worry about me, and I only need to rest for a few days to fully recover. So, how are the preparations for the opening of our new shop going? "Everything is ready, and I have also distributed advertisements to several TV stations and news media, so we can open our shop whenever we want." "That’s good! We will open our shop today, and I hope the results will meet our expectations." Zhang Fei [5] then turned to Jiang Yinghua before narrowing his eyes. "Who is that woman?" "Jiang Yinghua is my friend, and she is also a fashion designer like me." Zhou Ling immediately explained. "I see." Zhang Fei nodded in understanding. ’Scan her, Mei.’ [All right.] === Name: Jiang Yinghua Age: 5000+ Years Old Gender: Female Race: Winged Race Rank: Top Level [Power] Element: Light [Peak Stage] Physique: Superior Winged Race Abilities: angelic form, angelic wings, angelic protection, angelic force manipulation, physics manipulation, healing, purification, demonic slayer, and so on. Strong: Light Weak: Darkness === Zhang Fei [5] was not too surprised to read Jiang Yinghua’s status, especially since he had already sensed a familiar aura from her. ’As expected, she is indeed a member of the Tian Realm, but I didn’t expect her rank to be the Power of the top level. Her strength is on par with the Amaris Twins, but she’s still weaker than Orith.’ [Master, this woman is still stronger than the current you, and she is not an ordinary winged race like Chiel, but she has evolved once. Furthermore, her angelic protection prevents your lust demon abilities from affecting her, so you should proceed with caution when dealing with her. ’Yeah, you’re right.’ Zhang Fei [5] immediately walked over to Jiang Yinghua, making Huang Rong and the others think that he was interested in her. ’Can we talk somewhere else, Miss Angel?’ Jiang Yinghua was genuinely shocked when she heard Zhang Fei [5]’s voice in her head, and he was able to recognize her identity despite her disguise. Jiang Yinghua didn’t say anything and followed Zhang Fei [5], who was already making his way to the top floor. ’Who exactly is he? How did he recognize my identity?’ - To Be Continued -
