The night air was cool. Shrouded in the cover of the night, Feng Hui's expression was optimistic. In his mind, he would restore the world to its former glory so that his mother could come home in harmony.

When that hopeful time arrived, Feng Hui would be able to eat his mother's delicious cooking again. Thinking to this point, his smile was bright. However, the action of utmost importance was to first advance to the Realm of Immortals.

”According to Zhi Xingming, my will is the world's will.” Feng Hui thought. With the finding of the correct route, it was best to figure everything out while moving on with his life. Perhaps, he could draw comprehension from a new experience. Regardless of how unwilling he was, he could not rush the process; otherwise, the bottleneck could last forever.

Unfortunately, the thing that Feng Hui lacked the most was time; he wished to bring his mother back as soon as possible. Sighing, he looked at the little Bao Jing gleefully parting her lips to speak.

”What does Master think about the two-week time limit?” Bao Jing beamed. Seemingly, the possible extinction of the entire human race was not on her mind at all.

”Hm?” Raising his sharp brow, Feng Hui was unaware of this so-called two-week time limit.

Seeing her amazing master's confusion, Bao Jing kindly explained, ”The system stated that we needed to defeat those ten cultivators in order to escape the punishment of the erasing of our souls. This has to be completed within two weeks. I think this type of impossible mission is occurring everywhere in the world. Those ten were eying us down like we were an extinct race.”

Indeed, it would be impossible for normal humans to defeat those top cultivators. Mulling over the little brat's words, Feng Hui nodded, ”I understand, thanks.”

Simultaneously, Feng Hui erased the system from this talented little girl's mind. With a hidden smile, he opened a portal to clear another disastrous stronghold, ”Farewell, brat.”

Under the countless looks of admiration, Feng Hui's figure faded away into the portal. Giggling, Bao Jing's cute eyes brightened, ”See you later, Master!”

In this life, her mysterious master would always vanish as quickly as he had appeared. Toward this celestial benefactor, Bao Jing would be eternally grateful.

Soon, the light from dawn arrived. Enveloping the entire apartment in a bright light.

Somehow, the entire group had slept through nearly an entire cycle. The apocalypse was too mentally draining, after all. With the protection of Feng Hui, everyone was at ease.

Gradually, the group began waking up one after the other. Upon waking up, all of them drowsily rubbed their eyes. This was the best sleep they've had for a long time.

The last to awake was the beautiful Zhi Ruo. Freshening up a bit, she later walked out of her bedroom with messy long hair. Looking around, she was dumbfounded; she felt like she had the weirdest dream.

The black couch in front of her seemed too familiar for some reason. When Zhi Ruo looked around, she saw everybody staring at her. With a soft voice, she smiled, ”Good morning, everyone.”

”Mmm. Good morning, Sister Ruo!” Resting on the black couch with her best friend, Feng Mei giggled.

In response, everyone else also greeted the new woman in the group. Upon looking around, Zhi Ruo couldn't see the black-robed figure she was desperately looking for, ”Where's Brother Feng?”

Zhi Ruo didn't know why, but something told her to look for the black-robed man. In her eyes, everything was too confusing; her heart was a mess.

Hearing this, Sun Yi shook his head while sitting with his legs crossed on a timber chair, ”Truth be told, we don't know. Knowing him though, he will return soon.”

”Yup, Dàgē will be back soon.” In the view of Feng Mei, her elder brother would never leave unless it was something important.

Smiling, Feng Mei patted the spot to her left on the black couch, ”Come sit, Sister Ruo. We can wait together!”

”Okay… Sister Mei.” Shyly, Zhi Ruo ended up slowly nodding. Going up to her benefactor's cute sister, she awkwardly sat down next to her. Without Feng Hui, she would have been served on a honey plate to that gangster.

Leaning her little head on the incredibly beautiful woman's shoulder, Feng Mei giggled, ”You don't have to be nervous with us, Sister Mei.”

Hearing this tender, kind voice, Zhi Ruo's heart softened. A voice in her soul told her that she could definitely trust this mysterious black-robed man; thus, she should be able to trust his acquaintances too. With her mind eased, she smiled, ”I know, Sister Mei.”

Settling in a comfortable spot in the home, the group engaged in some small talk. Ten minutes later, a pitch-black portal began forming within their expectations. Stepping through the portal, Feng Hui chuckled at the five waiting for him, ”Wow, this is quite the sight. Was the sleep pleasant?”

”Mn. Your home is very comfortable, Brother Feng.” Softly, Zhi Ruo praised her benefactor's home. For some reason, sleeping here was especially relaxing. Unbeknownst to her, she was cuddling up to Feng Hui's scent for hours.

Praising Feng Hui's home, the rest of the group also brightly laughed. This was a side of this peerless man that they had never seen before. Surprisingly, he loved his home and family more than anything. For Wang Fang, he had believed that this cold genius student was an unfeeling block of ice with no emotions.

If Feng Hui knew that Zhi Ruo was thinking of him as her esteemed benefactor, he would surely become troubled. Nodding his head, he laughed, ”That's good, Zhi Ruo. This can be your home too.”

”Mn, thanks, Brother Feng.” Gratefully, Zhi Ruo shone a beautiful smile. In her eyes, she would definitely repay her benefactor in the future. Inexplicably, her heart was always unbelievably happy being around this black-robed man.

”There's no need for thanks.” Extending his spiritual sense, Feng Hui analyzed the system residing in the minds of these relaxed four. While residing within his domain, the system could not detect nor affect them at all. Waving his hand, he straightforwardly cleared the system from their minds.

Initially, Feng Hui had not cleared the system from Sun Yi's mind as the red-haired man could not cultivate to become stronger. The situation was different now, however. It would be too dangerous to allow the system to remain. One day, he would bring Sun Yi to the Long Kingdom to train as a respected Formation Master.

With a smile, Feng Hui sat down on a timber chair next to Sun Yi. Engaging in some casual discussion, he even laughed a bit. Watching his cute little sister and Zhi Ruo happily chat amused him greatly.

Some time later, Feng Hui suddenly made a request out of the blue, ”Guys, could I have a moment to chat about things with my little sister and Zhi Ruo?”

”Of course, Brother Hui.” Standing up from the timber chair, Sun Yi smilingly nodded. Peeking to the side, he saw Wang Fang and Nian Zhen getting up as well.

”Little Fang and Little Zhen come with me outside for a bit. I'll ensure your safety, don't worry. I have some things to discuss with you two as well.” Sun Yi laughed, and he walked outside with the two curious teenagers.
