My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 333 - 330 Jin Guang Covers the Sky

"In your eyes, Hu Shuisheng is very cunning, but in my eyes, he's quite foolish," Gao Fei said indifferently. "I used a simple scheme to make him suffer a great loss, and he almost died at my hands."

"Compared to you, I'm far behind," Jiang Qilong sighed. "It's like one of us is in heaven and the other on earth. Oh, by the way, I've heard something that you might be interested in."

"What is it?" Gao Fei asked.

"I heard that Hu Shuisheng's cultivation has greatly diminished, from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Golden Core Realm."

"Is that true?"

"I heard it through the grapevine, whether it's true or not, I don't know."

"I hope it's true," Gao Fei said softly. "If Hu Shuisheng has fallen to the Golden Core Realm, then he's not a threat. I could easily kill him."

They chatted while they hurried on their way, and the journey wasn't lonely.

Time flew by, and before they knew it, night had fallen.

"Let's find a place to rest for a while, and continue on our way when it gets light, how about that?" Jiang Qilong suggested.

Gao Fei nodded.

And so, the two found a sheltered spot and sat down.

"I have some food here," Jiang Qilong took out two packets of soy-braised beef from his Storage Bag, as well as two jars of fine wine. "Here, one for you."

Gao Fei's lips curled up slightly. "Did you rob these too?"

"What are you talking about!" Jiang Qilong didn't like what he heard. "The soy-braised beef is made by me, and the wine is home-brewed. Don't think that just because I'm a bandit, I rob everything."

"You made them yourself?" Gao Fei ate a slice of beef. "Hmm, this is really good. Let me try this wine." Gao Fei picked up a jar and took a sip, smacking his lips. "Rich and delicious, what a good wine! Good wine indeed! Jiang Qilong, I must say, you're wasting your talent not being a chef."

"I wouldn't want to be a chef," Jiang Qilong said. "Slaving away every day not to mention having to cater to the customers, you can't live a single day carefree. Being a bandit is dangerous, sure, but it's so liberating! If I don't like someone, I just rob them! If they resist, I fight them! Enjoying life and seeking revenge, how carefree and satisfying!"

"You're really getting a kick out of being a bandit."

"You've never been a bandit, so you wouldn't understand the thrill."

"What? You plan to be a bandit for life?"

"What's wrong with that?"

"Haven't you heard the saying 'Those who live by the sword, die by the sword'? I advise you to quit early, don't get in too deep, or else, you're sure to suffer."

"Just curse me."

"Suit yourself. Anyway, I've said all that I needed to say. Whether you listen or not is up to you."

They ate and drank, laughed and talked; the atmosphere was rather harmonious.

The night passed without incident.

Early the next morning, they set off again.

"How much farther?" Gao Fei asked.

"It's quite a distance," Jiang Qilong pouted. "At least three more days of travel."

"Let's speed up and aim to arrive within two days."

"...We're already moving fast enough."

"We won't rest tonight; we'll travel through the night."

"Ah? We have to travel at night too?" Jiang Qilong said with a wry smile. "Isn't that a bit harsh? Are you trying to work me to death?"

"Work you to death?" Gao Fei laughed. "A Golden Core Realm cultivator like you wouldn't have any problems even if you went a year without sleep or food, right?"

"I..."

"Enough, no more nonsense. It's settled then; we travel through the night and get to the destination as soon as possible,"

...

Traveling overnight saved a lot of time.

By dusk the next day, the two had entered a mountain forest.

Jiang Qilong led Gao Fei in a large circle and finally stopped in front of a cave: "The Immortal Palace is inside this cave."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's hurry inside!" Gao Fei urged.

"Can I rest for a while? I'm really tired now..."

"Rest inside the cave."

...

Jiang Qilong inwardly cursed Gao Fei upside down and then entered the cave with a stern face.

Gao Fei followed quickly.

The cave was spacious but had a pungent smell. Droplets of water hung on the stone walls, and with a gust of wind, they fell to the ground with "pitter-patter" sounds, creating clear "ding-dong" noises. The cave was very long, and after walking for half an hour, they still hadn't seen the end.

At that moment, Gao Fei started to get impatient: "Where is the Immortal Palace?"

"Don't worry, we will see it very soon."

"You'd better not be lying to me, or I won't let you off easily."

The two continued further, and unknowingly after another half an hour, "Whoosh!" A bright light flashed in front of them, dazzlingly bright.

"We're here," Jiang Qilong quickened his pace toward the light: "The Immortal Palace is just ahead."

Gao Fei also sped up, and after covering some distance, he saw a magnificently beautiful palace emerge in front of him, with golden light filling the sky and spiritual energy overwhelmingly present, its beauty and colorfulness beyond compare.

It was too beautiful!

Beauty to the extreme!

Too cool!

Too astonishing!

Gao Fei could swear that the palace before him was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen in his life.

The palace's façade had a large gate that was tightly closed. Above the gate hung a golden signboard with two ancient and stately characters inscribed on it, written in a very old script that Gao Fei didn't recognize.

"How does it feel? I didn't deceive you, did I," Jiang Qilong came over from the side: "Seeing this Immortal Palace, what are your thoughts? Are you not incredibly shaken?"

Gao Fei nodded slowly: "Indeed, it's breathtaking! The heavens have been kind to me, letting me meet you and leading me to this Immortal Palace under your lead... It truly confirms that old saying: 'In the unseen world, there is destiny.' This Immortal Palace is destined to be mine!"

"Hey, hey, hey, aren't you being a bit too shameless?" Jiang Qilong started to protest: "I discovered this Immortal Palace; what does it have to do with you? If you hadn't coerced me, I wouldn't have brought you here. Listen to me, I must have a share of the treasures inside the palace, you can't hog them all to yourself!"

Gao Fei didn't pay any attention to Jiang Qilong and walked to the Immortal Palace on his own, muttering to himself: "What's the origin of this Immortal Palace? What's hidden inside it? Since I've discovered it, I must uncover the truth."

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a massive force burst forth from the palace, sending Gao Fei flying out.

"Boom!"

Gao Fei hit the stone wall, then slid down to the ground, his hair and clothes covered in dust, looking quite disheveled.

Nice hit! Jiang Qilong cheered inwardly, feeling particularly happy to see Gao Fei at a disadvantage. Of course, he only dared to cheer inwardly, as he didn't dare to say it out loud, for fear of being beaten up.

"So powerful," Gao Fei got up from the ground, looking warily at the Immortal Palace: "Such strong force! It left me powerless to resist!" The stronger the Immortal Palace seemed, the more excited Gao Fei became; he was determined to open the palace and claim the treasures inside for himself!
