As they jumped from the roof of one building to the other and felt the wind caressing her face, Yao Mei couldn’t help but look at Xie Feng and asked, “Why bother trying to convince them with soft and gentle methods?”
What she meant was that, with Xie Feng’s strength, he could have easily made everyone submit to him by the hard way. Even if Chi Yong Hong was brave and not afraid of death, even if some other few hooligans had some backbone, they were not all like that. In fact, most of them would have submitted to Xie Feng after he ended the lives of some of them. That way, he wouldn’t need to waste words.
“Sometimes, force is not the best option.” Xie Feng jumped slightly and his body rose several meters into the air as he patiently explained, “Even if I subdued them by force, they would not follow me willingly. However, by offering some benefits, their attitudes and views would be different… For example, now, Chi Yong Hong is still a leader, he has power, he can continue to live a life of luxury and very soon he will be able to stop living the life of a sewer rat. The only thing he lost is that when he receives a call from me, he must act no matter how unwell he is.
“From his point of view, nothing has changed. However, I got what I was looking for. Even if he is not 100% loyal to me, he must be at least 80% loyal to me and, thanks to the fear he feels towards me after seeing a part of my strength, he will not dare to offend me. That’s what I was looking for… A puppet who listens obediently and fulfills my instructions willingly. If I had used mere strength, I would have an obedient puppet but one who would stab me at the slightest opportunity.”
The red-haired beauty’s eyes glinted slightly. In the dim moonlight, her face seemed to brighten slightly with a glint of understanding.

The amount of time Xie Feng was away was not long. In fact, it had only been thirty to forty minutes since he had left to deal with the matter of the Green Bamboo Gang.
After parting from Yao Mei, she returned to villa number 10 and Xie Feng to villa number 9; both villas were very close to each other.
According to Yao Mei, she was currently living with her butler, the same old man that Xie Feng had seen when she had paid him a visit while he was still in Beijing. The old man was a very close person to Yao Mei, as he had taken care of her since she was a little girl, so she was also very fond of him.
“Oh? Big brother Xie Feng, wash your hands. Dinner will be ready soon.”
Xie Feng had barely taken off his coat when Xie Yao’s soft voice brought him out of his inner thoughts. Looking ahead, he saw her dressed in a pink apron with light blue buns. She had a small smile on her beautiful face and her eyes were gentle as she looked at him with love that was impossible to hide.
“Okay! I’m currently starving!” Xie Feng chuckled lightly and went to the bathroom on the 1st floor to wash his hands. Although he had had a small snack with Yao Mei on the way, it was impossible to be completely satiated with something like that.
Xie Yao watched him disappear around the corner of the corridor with a smitten smile. Although she was curious to know where he went, since he didn’t mention it, so she decided not to ask about it. She believed that if it was something important, then he would tell her; since he didn’t say anything, then it must be an insignificant matter that she shouldn’t worry about.
Xie Yao was a rather cruel woman to the rest of the men, this was because she knew very well how attractive she was to the male sex. As a result, nine out of ten men would look at her with lust and desire, which was disgusting to her. From her point of view, only Xie Feng had the right to look at her like that… But, although she was cruel to men, to Xie Feng she was as docile as a little kitten; she was so obedient that many might come to think that her personality was empty, but they could not be more wrong.

…
After dinner and chatting with the girls, Xie Feng took a shower and went straight to sleep. After waking up from a beautiful night’s sleep, he together with Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue headed to the university. However, just walking out of the door they met Yao Mei, who immediately joined the group of three.
Of course, the death glares Xie Feng received as he walked through the streets and when he walked through the entrance of the university was enough to kill him at least about five hundred thousand times if the glares really had the power to kill people.
Used to it, Xie Feng simply ignored all those men. On some occasions, he even couldn’t help but look at them with eyes that suggested saying, “Commoner, watch and learn!”, which made the eyes of many male students turn red with rage. Unfortunately for them, that rage could not be vented anywhere and they could only swallow it in silence.
His three friends also questioned him about Yao Mei, to which he answered truthfully, saying that he had only met her recently, not even half a month ago. Although they were doubtful, they knew that Xie Feng had no reason to lie to them about this matter so in the end, they let him go quite easily.
At noon, Xie Feng returned home with the girls, had lunch, and logged directly into Samsara Online to continue his long travel.

[Welcome to Samsara world. Wish you a happy reincarnation].
“Although the view is beautiful, somehow it doesn’t feel comfortable to know that I’m who knows how many meters underground.” Xie Feng muttered to himself as he forced a smile at the sight that greeted him. Of course, since yesterday he had disconnected in the caves, when he reconnected he was still underground.
Just as Xie Feng had taken his first step and was preparing to continue his ride, he sensed something strange and his face changed slightly.
Stretching his hand forward and with a crimson flash, the terrifying but at the same time beautiful Calamity Spear appeared in his right hand. However, unlike in the past, the spear was currently glowing slightly. Xie Feng could even feel the weapon trembling slightly as if it was expectant of something.
“What’s going on? “Xie Feng watched the scene with wide eyes. This was the first time he had felt something like this since he obtained the Calamity Spear.
“Could it be…!” Suddenly, an idea flashed in Xie Feng’s mind as he thought of something crazy.
Stretching his other free hand forward, the Pearl of Frozen Water he had recently acquired appeared floating a few centimeters away from his left palm.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Without warning, the Pearl of Frozen Water and the Calamity Spear left Xie Feng’s hands. Both objects floated slightly in front of him, about one or two meters away.
The Pearl of Frozen Water released a deep blue glow that struck the Calamity Spear hard. His spear shuddered slightly, not out of fear or worry, it was out of joy! Xie Feng could clearly feel how the Calamity Spear was practically writhing in pleasure!
“It really was like that!” Xie Feng’s eyes flashed brightly as he watched the scene in front of him.
The blue radiance released by the Pearl of Frozen Water soon completely covered the Calamity Spear, making its outline barely visible from the outside. This continued for about a full hour, but Xie Feng waited patiently not daring to look away for fear of missing something important. An hour later, the results appeared before his eyes.
Swoosh!
The Pearl of Frozen Water seemed to return to normal and with a smooth swoosh disappeared back into Xie Feng’s body, with no apparent changes. On the other hand, while the Pearl of Frozen Water seemed as normal as before, the same could not be said for the Calamity Spear.
The color of the Calamity Spear was still completely blood red, however, around it was a kind of frost aura surrounding it. Xie Feng even noticed how the air around the weapon seemed to freeze slightly.
Xie Feng stretched his hand forward and his spear returned to his hands as if it could sense his will.
