Chapter 258: Vibrant Greenhouse pt.1

Xu Feng couldn’t help but appreciate the ring’s presence. It seemed to have a knack for leading him to valuable things, people, and opportunities.

Perhaps it could assist them in finding a transportation talisman, though he couldn’t help but feel that he might be dreaming too big this time.

"Thanks," he whispered to the ring, his voice a soft acknowledgment of its continued assistance. Despite the challenges and uncertainties that lay ahead, he had faith that the ring would continue to guide him towards a solution.

With a mischievous grin, Xu Feng couldn’t help but marvel at the ring’s conduct. In many novels, immortal objects were often portrayed as haughty and aloof, but this particular ring seemed down to earth and agreeable.

It had become his treasure that was also a treasure hunting companion, and he cherished it more than ever.

It had reacted in front of both Xuan Jian and Xuan Yang, the Xuan ancestor’s secret space, and Xu Feng knew it would continue to lead him to many treasures.

The ring ran hotter for a minute as if to acknowledge Xu Feng’s gratitude.

The question of whether both his and Xu Zeng’s rings shared the same consciousness or possessed distinct personalities had crossed his mind. He pondered if the rings were found together with their eggs in the same location.

Considering the circumstances, it was highly likely that they were indeed connected in some way. The mysterious "Qulin descendant" powerhouse wouldn’t have known about both the rings and the eggs if she hadn’t been present during their initial discovery by the "Phoenix descendant" powerhouse.

Xu Feng’s bitterness towards the "Qulin descendant" lingered. Their troubles had begun with her greed, leading to a chaotic struggle for the precious eggs and rings.

As he contemplated their future, Xu Feng couldn’t help but entertain the idea of stealing from her if he and Xu Zeng managed to return to the Zhoujin world and reach a power level that could rival hers.

The "Qulin descendant" had flaunted someone else’s benefits gained from the secret realm, but she had never revealed all her cards. What secrets and treasures did she possess that could benefit not only him and Xu Zeng but also Xuan Jian, Xuan Yang, Xu Hu Zhe, or even Bai Mo?

The possibilities stirred his curiosity and determination.

Stealing in cultivation worlds was normal...He wasn’t becoming crooked...

Xu Feng reached up and rubbed his brows. This thought path was leading him deeper into a pathway he had never considered.

He was supposed to be living a nice peaceful farming life with a rich young master. Living off the land, eating good food, occasionally getting dicked down.

Where had his simple life gone!!!!

But what had become of his simple, peaceful existence? His life had taken a dramatic turn, leading him back into a world of zombies, power struggles, and unimaginable challenges. It was a far cry from the calm farming life he had once aimed for.

"Ugh!" With a frustrated groan, Xu Feng tried to contain his internal turmoil. He knew that the greenhouse was not the place to unleash his frustration, even with the protective walls surrounding him.

It was daylight. Pretty close to noon, and the zombies were less active at this time, but, THERE WERE STILL ACTAL HUMAN EATING ZOMBIES. Also, humans. Humans were often more treacherous than zombies themselves...at least that’s what he’d often read about and even watched in zombie movies...

Xu Feng couldn’t help but feel a wave of melancholy wash over him, he wanted to moan again. His life seemed to be a peak of the books he had read and the dramas and movies he had watched, a strange mixture of fiction and reality.

What kind of life was this!?

Finally pulling himself together, he pushed himself up from the ground. His body protested slightly, and he swayed, side to side, for a moment before steadying himself. He reached down to rub his stomach unconsciously, feeling the strain from his earlier exertion. He had indeed overdone it, but he was determined to finish the greenhouse for Xu Zeng.

Moreover, a part of him yearned for a little adventure beyond the limits of the compound...

Xu Feng slipped his hand into the pocket of his grey sweatpants, a slight difference from his earlier attire the day before—he couldn’t take the sticky feeling this morning, and had taken a quick hoe bath and changed clothing.

Nope, he didn’t wash the other clothes for Xu Zeng—he was too pampered by a certain iceberg, and the thought hadn’t even crossed his mind.

Love was truly blinding! And this young master or young mistress was beyond pampered!

He and Xu Zeng were still undecided on who would make the journey back to Dongzhou and Zhoujin world, and how to even get back, but their time had run out. And Xu Feng promised to switch back after finishing the greenhouse.

For now, Xu Zeng seemed the best fit for this zombie world with his attack abilities. It was crazy that they both had wood abilities, but their functions were so wildly different.

He would do his best in Donghua after he helped Xu Zeng bring this greenhouse to life.

But before heading back to Donghua and doing damage control with his husbands, Xu Feng wanted to retrieve Xu Zeng’s hidden crystal nuclei stash outside of the compound walls and do some cultivating.

The crystal nuclei were amazing! And cultivating with them felt even more dramatic than when he cultivated in the Xuan ancestor’s cave. They were both cheats, but they felt different, and he gained different benefits with each energy source.

What were these benefits? Xu Feng didn’t know exactly, but his body knew.

Xu Feng made his way back to the dormitory, determined to retrieve the seeds he needed for the greenhouse. With careful precision, he planted each of the planters to the brim.

As he stepped back to admire his handiwork, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of accomplishment. Despite the trials and challenges he had faced in this new-old world, his hard work was finally paying off.

The greenhouse, aside from the flower bed where Xu Feng had been sick in, a few times, was a sight for sore eyes.
