Doomsday: Gain experience by hunting

The gravity room is different from the outside.

[Thirty-Six Styles of the Bedchamber, Mastery (3→179/3000)]

Experience points surged.

After a moment of tenderness, Liang Yu took a nap and returned radiant.

That evening, the youthful Li Zi happened to pass by and lightly injured the people monitoring Ah Shui and her daughter.

She made her point without overdoing it, as if she were just passing by and decided to beat them up on a whim because she didn't like them.

Having calculated the time, Liang Yu arrived at the other courtyard; she had been there with Tang Wen before.

Ah Shui and her three daughters recognized her.

Without fuss or noise, the three obediently packed their belongings and left with her, settling down in the courtyard belonging to Liang Yu.

The Liu Residence.

Liu Bing was shocked to see the two martial artists return in such a disheveled state.

Not daring to hide anything, he inquired and, after understanding the situation, immediately went to see Zhao Zhe.

As expected, the latter was furious:

"You can't even handle this little thing! What good are you?"

As a transcendent being scolded like this, Liu Bing naturally felt uncomfortable.

However, he had long been labeled as belonging to the Eldest Young Master's faction.

And under the Eldest Young Master's arrangement, he had falsely reported many achievements, receiving considerable rewards from the gang.

He was tied to the same boat and found it difficult to switch allegiances.

He could only endure it.

Oh well!

I'll just muddle through.

My old lady has food, clothing, and servants; what does it matter if I suffer a little?

It's better than fighting over scraps with stray dogs.

When the Third Young Lady takes over the helm, perhaps the Eldest Young Master will restrain himself a bit.

Liu Bing skillfully consoled himself.

After enduring half a day of scolding, he expertly gauged Zhao Zhe's mood and raised his head, saying:

"However, the Seventh Young Master didn't take the people back to his current residence but to Liang Yu's place."

"What? Explain clearly!"

Hope rekindled in Zhao Zhe's heart: Tang Wen's woman, I'm determined to have her!

Liu Bing pondered, "A transcendent expert passed by the entrance of the Seventh Young Master's other courtyard and injured the martial artists I sent. I think it must have been an accident."

"An accident? Are you sure?"

"Yes, the Seventh Young Master shouldn't have any transcendent experts under his command. Moreover, after the incident, the Seventh Young Master settled the people in his subordinate's courtyard and didn't take them home, which means"

Zhao Zhe preemptively drew the conclusion: "It means he's utterly foolish and hasn't realized my purpose at all! It further proves that Shui Yun is a jealous woman and Tang Wen is weak, not even daring to bring his former poor wife and concubines home. What kind of man is he!"

Liu Bing: Is that what I was trying to say?

I wanted to say that they're just two maids, and the Seventh Young Master doesn't value them.

You're talking about wives and concubines, but their status is really just servants. You like their status, but now that status is invalid. Can we please stop with this nonsense?

But the words that came out of his mouth were: "That's right, Young Master is insightful!"

Zhao Zhe smiled smugly, then composed himself and coldly snorted, "Since they're not in Tang Wen's residence, you don't need to hold back! Continue!"

"But"

"No buts. I'll give you another month, no, twenty days. You must bring the people here. Also, after it's done, create a stir, make it known to everyone." He sneered silently, "I want to show everyone that a young master can't even protect his own wives and concubines. What face does he have to be a young master! What future can anyone have with him?"

"Young Master, you are truly brilliant!" Liu Bing gave a thumbs up, his face full of admiration.

The next day, in a carriage outside the Black Water Gang's main headquarters.

Liang Yu, carrying a small birdcage, watched the bird inside, its long beak sucking nectar from a flower.

The young master can actually tame hummingbirds.

He's truly amazing.

The method of raising hummingbirds has always been controlled by the Giant Rock Martial Hall.

Other gangs and families haven't mastered it.

These little things are small and agile, fly quite fast, and are good at tracking floral scents.

As long as they get a bit of scent, they can't escape their tracking.

Therefore, the Giant Rock Martial Hall, clearly a force of body refiners, is particularly fond of planting flowers.

One is to raise hummingbirds, and the other is to use them as a natural defense.

Once someone sneaks in and gets pollen on them, they will inevitably have a hard time escaping.

"Young Master, isn't this too dangerous?" Liang Yu wrapped a layer of oilcloth over Tang Wen's coat.

Reaching out to caress Liang Yu's smooth cheek, he said, "Don't worry."

Liang Yu was still worried: "I put a few buckets of clear water in the two courtyards you instructed me to."

"Whose courtyards are they?"

"Just some vacant courtyards I found."

"Good!"

The cage opened, and the hummingbird flew out. The well-trained hummingbird flew towards its old nest in its memory.

With the power of concealment activated, Tang Wen, carrying a large cage, followed closely behind.

Turning left and right, a piece of farmland appeared before him.

Across two miles, a rich floral fragrance wafted over.

Even though his face was covered with a veil, Tang Wen couldn't help but squint.

The floral fragrance was too strong, and pollen flew like dust in the sunlight.

The guards were very casual, hiding in the pergola drinking tea and bragging.

Just kidding, even the most skilled thief would have to avoid this place.

"Buzz buzz buzz"

Tang Wen carefully walked through the flowers, avoiding bees and butterflies.

Chirp!

The buzzing of a bee stopped.

A black hummingbird, its long and sturdy beak pierced through its body.

Tang Wen reached out and squeezed, sending a soothing energy over.

The hummingbird was thrown into the bamboo cage.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

In less than ten minutes, he had caught a hundred hummingbirds.

The cage was densely packed.

In the distance, men in black walked into the flowers, cautiously approaching.

Buzz!

A group of black bees moved out from a large nest and pounced.

The black-clothed man's face was solemn, and he turned to escape.

Looking at his movements, he was actually a transcendent powerhouse.

Tang Wen, who had no intention of stealing honey, became interested.

He stealthily approached the hive, his mind moved, and golden-red color climbed onto his skin.

Reaching out his finger to catch a passing black bee, he pinched it in his hand; it was as big as a fist.

He didn't use mental soothing. The black bee was startled and shot out its stinger with a 'chi'!

For ordinary bees, losing their stinger meant certain death.

But not for the black bee in front of him. He loosened his hand, and it flew away unsteadily.

Tang Wen looked at the white spot on his arm and clicked his tongue in amazement!

Incredible!

If the black bee's stinger was ten times sharper and ten times stronger, it could probably pierce through his outermost layer of skin.

No wonder even transcendents had to avoid its sharp edge.

Once surrounded by ten or so black bees, transcendents would also be injured.

Moreover, this stinger was also poisonous.

Buzz buzz buzz.

Black bees were like clouds, like low-altitude bombers.

Patrolling everywhere in the garden.

Hummingbirds fled far away.

The black bee's nest was built on the ground, as tall as a two-story building.

Like a huge trumpet flower, placed on the ground.

Mental power swept over.

In the huge hive, besides countless bee pupae, black bees, and honeycombs, there was also a not-small honey storage room.

In that honey storage room, hung pearl-sized purple pearls.

It seemed that was the black bee's honey.

Mental power stretched out like tentacles.

Tang Wen said "huh" in his heart.

The beehive was made of unknown material.

It could actually resist the penetration of mental power.

Seeing that the bees were about to riot.

Tang Wen didn't care, and with the thirty-six mental characters in his sea of consciousness fully activated, mental power surged out like sea waves, taking away most of the "purple pearl"-like honey particles.

He packed it in gauze, flashed with the Shadow Nether Steps, and turned to flee the scene.

Almost the next second, the garden exploded.

The black bees crazily bumped around.

"What's going on?"

"Sound the alarm! The black bees are rioting!"

"Retreat, retreat, retreat!"

The Giant Rock Martial Hall's important location, Hundred Flower Garden, was in chaos.

Tang Wen followed the pre-planned escape route and first came to the Horse Gang's territory.

According to the symbols at the entrance, he determined the first courtyard.

There were several large buckets of clear water in the courtyard. He dispersed his concealment power, washed himself, changed into clean clothes, and burned the clothes he had taken off.

Then he stealthily advanced, came to the courtyard in the Giant Rock Martial Hall's territory, focusing on hiding in plain sight.

This time he stayed a few minutes longer.

He lit the prepared fruit wood and smoked it.

After roasting, not to mention him, even the "hummingbird group" in the cage had a fruity wood smell.

It wasn't that he was too cautious, but the hummingbird's tracking ability made him fearful.

Hummingbirds were not exotic beasts, but they were better than exotic beasts.

Especially since the Giant Rock Martial Hall had even stronger mutated hummingbirds, with strength equivalent to high-level exotic beasts.

Their tracking ability was even stronger.

They could distinguish extremely subtle scents.

Finally, Tang Wen came to the Black Water Gang's territory and unexpectedly saw Zhao Zhe's carriage.

Through the unclosed curtains, Zhao Zhe and Lin Shi were both in the carriage.

It seemed they had just left home and were going to visit someone in the inner city.

Tang Wen's heart stirred, and he turned to Zhao Zhe's residence.

Zhao Zhe was not there, so the transcendent protecting him was not there either.

He came to the master bedroom, found the entrance to the underground secret room, and went down the steps.

This underground secret room was not small.

There were also two passages leading to other places.

It was probably left for running away.

Tang Wen looked around and directly placed the purple pearl-like honey on the table in the secret room.

The small hummingbird flapped its wings.

Towards the direction of the table, it crashed against the cage.

The huge bamboo cage was carried up by them.

Their desire for the purple pearl honey was a bit crazy.

Like a red-eyed gambler seeing chips! An addict seeing white powder!

He picked up a cloth to cover the honey, but it didn't work.

The hummingbirds were still crazy.

Tang Wen had to use stealth to hide the existence of the honey on the table.

After isolating the smell for a while, the hummingbirds gradually quieted down.

He opened the cage and caught a hummingbird.

After some comforting, this beautiful little fellow obediently stood in Tang Wen's palm, looking up, waiting for the master's instructions.

Tang Wen tried to hide it and a purple pearl honey together with stealth.

The honey appeared in its sight.

The hummingbird's long beak immediately pierced through it, piercing into the purple pearl's membrane.

Sucking.

Finally, the outer membrane of the honey was also sucked into its belly.

The hummingbird happily flapped its wings, its body temperature gradually increased.

Tang Wen understood.

Eating too much purple pearl-like honey could enhance the hummingbird's power and allow it to evolve.

"This?"

Tang Wen thought for a while, took out a few jade bottles from his arms, which contained the blood marrow of transcendent exotic beasts.

He brought spares.

Transcendent blood marrow didn't bring much improvement to his attributes.

It could only be used as a means to quickly recover from injuries and replenish physical strength.

He poured out a drop of blood marrow, and the hummingbird pounced over and ate it.

The hummingbird, whose physique was equivalent to a low-level exotic beast, couldn't bear the medicine power of such a fierce transcendent blood marrow at all.

The fever came suddenly, and the body temperature rose rapidly.

It was faster than throwing it directly into a pot to cook, and the temperature rose even faster.

But it wasn't as fast as deep-frying.

It was about the same as the rate of temperature increase from slowly roasting it on the fire.

Tang Wen had too much say in cooking birds.

In less than half a minute, the hummingbird couldn't bear the medicine power and began to kick its legs.

Mental power like a trickle wrapped it up. Tang Wen kept communicating with it with Beast Mastery, while using mental power to guide the medicine power in its body, accelerating circulation and absorption.

A few minutes passed.

The hummingbird's body temperature stabilized.

Flapping!

The hummingbird struggled to get up and shook its wings.

Tang Wen and it were stunned at the same time.

Feathers flew everywhere, and the beautiful little bird didn't have a single feather left on its body.

The hummingbird became a bald bird.

The body temperature was too high just now, the bird was nearly eighty percent cooked, and the feathers were roasted off.

The transformation officially began.

Tang Wen quickly comforted: It will grow out in the future.

The hummingbird stared blankly at the bird feathers, the scene was very funny.

At this time, after all, it was in Zhao Zhe's secret room, he didn't delay, and released the next hummingbird.

A purple crystal honey, a drop of blood marrow.

Plus a few minutes of guiding time, another bald bird was born.

But wouldn't it take overnight in this secret room to strengthen a hundred hummingbirds?

He didn't have the leisure.

After thinking about it, he caught two hummingbirds at once and began to strengthen them.

The body structure of the hummingbirds was basically the same.

Tang Wen didn't need to really multitask.

How to say it?

The feeling of manipulating two mental powers at the same time to guide two hummingbirds was probably like when elementary school students do "new word" homework, holding two pens in their hands and writing at the same time.

As long as the distance was appropriate, the handwriting wouldn't be too outrageous, and the efficiency suddenly doubled.

After doing a few groups of two, Tang Wen increased the intensity and guided four at the same time.

Anyway, his mental power was strong enough.

After being proficient with four, it was eight.

At this point, he didn't stack any more.

Two hours passed.

Transcendent blood marrow was exhausted.

There was still plenty of purple pearl honey.

Looking at a group of listless little bald birds, lying in the cage.

He caught them out one by one, and fed each of them two more purple pearl honey.

After the honey went down, the hummingbirds appeared in a state similar to drunkenness.

Flapping their featherless wings, they fell asleep crookedly in the cage.

At this point, Tang Wen completely breathed a sigh of relief.

The number of purple pearl honey in front of him was still very large. He curiously pinched one and threw it into his mouth, his lips and tongue gently pursed, and sweetness exploded.

Energy and physical strength were quickly recovering.

Well, it seemed to be able to repair some minor damage.

Tang Wen closed his eyes and carefully felt the effect of purple pearl honey.

However, there was no damage in his body that needed to be repaired.

With his physical fitness, he could quickly recover from all injuries.

The honey emitted a sweet fragrance. The air circulation in the secret room was poor, and the scent of roasted meat lingered.

Scanning his surroundings, Tang Wen found a white portable wooden box of suitable size.

The box was heavy.

Opening it, he was greeted by a golden glow.

Without hesitation, Tang Wen poured out the gold bars and carefully wrapped the purple pearl honey in gauze before placing it into the box.

Gold, jewelry, and precious porcelain filled the room.

But there was no need to take them.

Sooner or later, this place, including the secret room and its mistress, would bear the Tang surname.

With the box in one hand and the birdcage in the other, Tang Wen prepared to leave.

Suddenly, he turned his head towards a passage within the secret room.

From there, he heard faint footsteps.

Was someone coming from the secret passage?

To his shock, the footsteps indicated that the person was already very close.

No more than ten steps away.

With Tang Wen's current strength, the fact that someone could approach within ten steps before he reacted could only mean one thing!

The newcomer was a Rank 6.

Moreover, at least a seasoned Rank 6.

There was no time to leave.

Here in the secret room, there was no wind.

Moving quickly while cloaked in stealth would create subtle drafts.

Ordinary people wouldn't notice it.

Even transcendents might not detect it.

But a Rank 6 powerhouse would surely sense something amiss.

If that happened, a random area-of-effect attack could shatter his invisibility.

He wasn't afraid of a fight.

But he wasn't wearing a disguise.

The newcomer might recognize him.

Damn!

Being known for sneaking into his sworn brother's wife's bedroom was a minor issue.

But alerting his sworn brother would be a major problem!

How would he make his move then?

In the nick of time, he did two things.

He used his stealth ability to cover the exit of the secret room and used his mental strength to fling the door open.

The underground secret room was lit by illumination crystals, casting shadows in the corners.

Tang Wen enhanced his stealth and hid in the shadows.

Creak!

The iron door of the secret room was pushed open from the outside.

Tang Wen grimaced inwardly: Zhao Zhe was truly brain-dead. Which family's master bedroom had a secret room accessible from the outside?

What was he thinking?

Was it to make it easier for his wife to cheat on him?

Step!

A bare foot stepped into the secret room.

Tang Wen lowered his head slightly, avoiding direct eye contact to prevent alerting the person.
