Chapter 19 (2/2)

Xiao Jing’s face was glowing as she began to pack everything up.

They had roughly killed about 43 threadsnakes. With their skins stacked, it filled up Qin Feng’s pockets, and his combat backpack was crammed with gallbladders and fangs. As for the meat, Qin Feng was not going to bring any of it back.

2“This is your share!” Qin Feng gave Xiao Jing three snakes worth of materials.

She was taken aback for a moment but did not refuse him. “How much could these be exchanged for?”

Qin Feng calculated for a moment before concluding, “Around 10,000!”

At that, Xiao Jing’s eyes widened like two golfballs!

That meant that if she tagged along with Qin Feng for eight days, she stood to earn up to 80,000!

“Are you coming tomorrow?” Xiao Jing suddenly realized that she was crude, but still, she asked anyway.

“Of course you are! We’ll set up a tent in the plantation today. It’ll be inconvenient to have to walk all the way back. Let’s go!”

Qin Feng picked up the backpack filled with snake parts and carried a small combat backpack in his hand. Xiaobai jumped back inside and then kicked at the bottles, unhappily pouting itself away.

“Chirp! Chirp!” Xiaobei leaped out, looking annoyed and jumped onto Qin Feng’s shoulder.

Seeing his buddy in distress, Qin Feng patted Xiaobai endearingly.

“Remember to go back inside later. We don’t want other people to see you.”

“Chirp!”

Qin Feng started to walk.

Xiao Jing looked at the bloody battlefield and called out, “Qin Feng! What about this meat? We’re not taking them?”

“They’re too heavy!” They were not even a team, and yet, they had managed to yield loot a large group would struggle to obtain. While other people had trouble of not having enough to go around themselves, Qin Feng had so much that he could not take them all.

Xiao Jing looked at all the meat. To her, she saw wasted profit! All these were money!

1In the colony, low ranking people could not afford to eat high-quality gourmet like that. One single threadsnake could cost up to 2,000 Chinese currency, Xiao Jing’s parents combined salary for one month.

Xiao Jing clenched her jaw and stuffed one big threadsnake into her own backpack, enough to fill up her large-ish backpack.

Then she picked up two more, which she draped around her neck, ignoring the blood and filth.

Surprisingly, Qin Feng did not warn her but instead allowed her to do as she pleased.

1He walked ahead of her with ease as the things he carried were rather light. In less than 10 minutes, Xiao Jing’s breathing had turned into an asthmatic wheeze, and the strength in her body was rapidly draining.

But she did not complain. Huffing and puffing, she continued to soldier forward, never once asking Qin Feng for assistance.

After around fifteen minutes, she was starting to feel faint. Her muscles ached, and her stomach growled. She was all but hungry again.

“Hang in there. Just a little bit longer,” Xiao Jing said to herself, as she took a bite of the raw snake meat and swallowed. Thankfully, despite the putrid taste in her mouth, her stomach warmed up, and she felt energized.

2Qin Wei stared at Xiao Jing, a little shocked.

2He had not realized that her Ancient Warrior disposition had been awakened.

The awakening injections would awaken its user’s constitutions by increasing physical strength, speed, and many other external characteristics.

The chances of this happening were much higher than the awakening of ability users, but also just as rare – about a 1 in 10 chance.

In his previous life, Qin Feng met Xiao Jing only once, and he did not understand her at that time. Right now, he had a rough idea of how Xiao Jing bottomed out.

“Eat more. Stay strong!” Qin Feng cut out a piece of meat with his dagger attempting to make it easier for her.

“I… I feel like I have so much more energy!” Xiao Jing was a little puzzled but persuaded by Qin Feng’s gentle voice; she continued to chomp down on the snake. Taking in large bites and ignoring the disgusting raw taste and chewy texture of the reptile, her stomach absorbed all that energy like a bottomless pit.

“You’ve awakened!” Qin Feng smiled.
