Chapter 431 My Energy Bar is Plenty
Xia Ning stepped forward curiously: "Did you overhear the Lord of Solitude's incantation?"
Lin Feng nodded, his expression somewhat complicated: "The incantation is—'Little bunny, open the door.'"
Xia Ning choked on her own saliva, coughed, and laughed, "Are you sure?!"
"That's for sure, all six bats said so."
Xia Ning rubbed her forehead: "I didn't expect... Master Ji is still quite childlike."
Lin Feng's smile faded, and his gaze turned serious: "So tonight... shall we explore the forbidden area?"
Xia Ning shook her head, her eyes sparkling: "Honey, you promised me earlier—you had to satisfy me tonight."
As she spoke, she raised her index finger and gently drew circles on Lin Feng's chest.
"Let's skip it tonight, tomorrow night... I'll go with you myself."
Lin Feng raised an eyebrow, tightening his arms around her and pulling her into his embrace: "We can't go against our goddess's wishes; whatever our wife says goes!"
Xia Ning smiled charmingly and snapped her fingers lightly, instantly enveloping the entire room in a layer of faint light barrier.
As the two were getting closer and about to get down to business, a very faint flapping sound suddenly came from outside the window.
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed: "The bats are back. I'll go take a look."
He walked quietly to the window, and as soon as he pushed it open halfway, a dark figure nimbly slipped in.
It was the largest bat again; it folded its wings and landed steadily on his fingertip, while the other five also landed on the windowsill one after another.
Lin Feng closed his eyes and asked telepathically, "How is the situation?"
The lead bat immediately transmitted what it had seen and felt into his mind:
"The Lord of Silence has emerged from the forbidden area, but his aura is much weaker than when he entered. He coughed incessantly along the way, and his body swayed slightly, indicating that he was extremely exhausted."
Lin Feng raised an eyebrow slightly and nodded slowly: "I understand, thank you for your hard work."
He took out another cup of fragrant honey and placed it on the windowsill.
Upon smelling the sweet aroma, the bats immediately rushed forward excitedly, extending their slender tongues to lick it happily.
But when the honeydew ran dry, the six bats remained in the same spot, showing no sign of leaving.
Lin Feng said helplessly, "I have important things to do. You guys go back first."
The largest bat tilted its head, its thoughts transmitted directly:
"Could you send us some more work? This honey... we've had our fill, we want more!"
Lin Feng was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter.
Since the bat asked for a mission, he was naturally happy to oblige.
"You will remain in this area tomorrow night on standby. Even if we don't need you, you'll still get honey to eat."
The six bats instantly perked up and shouted in unison using their minds:
"Thanks, boss!"
Lin Feng: "..."
Good grief, he's inexplicably become Batman?
Once the bats had completely disappeared into the night, Lin Feng turned back to the bedside and gently pulled Xia Ning into his arms.
"The bat just reported that after the Lord of Silence came out of the forbidden area, his aura was much weaker. He was coughing all the way and could barely stand."
Xia Ning frowned slightly and whispered a guess:
"He's so weak... it's probably not just from the exhaustion of casting spells. I suspect... he's using his own source power to feed the things inside the forbidden area."
"But now is not the time to talk about these things. A moment of bliss on the night of passion is worth a thousand pieces of gold."
Lin Feng lowered his head and gently kissed Xia Ning's forehead:
"My wife is right, living in the moment is the most important thing."
After saying that, he tightened his arms slightly, pulling the person closer.
The newly replaced bed was sturdy and solid, and soon a soft creaking sound could be heard.
This time, there was no longer the overwhelming sense of impending doom, only a calm, steady, and effortless rhythm.

The next day, just as dawn broke, the sky was still shrouded in a pale blue hue.
Xia Ning gently nudged Lin Feng beside her: "Honey, wake up."
Lin Feng, still half-asleep, groggily sat up: "No way... so early, are you hungry again?"
Xia Ning smiled and gently pinched him:
"What nonsense are you talking about? The elders will be getting up soon. If someone finds out I'm hiding a novice cultivator in my room, it'll be a huge problem!"
Lin Feng instantly regained his senses, nodded, and quickly put on the black robe.
Xia Ning quickly got dressed, quietly opened the door, and led Lin Feng downstairs, taking him straight back to the second-floor terrace.
She only turned and left after watching Lin Feng's figure disappear into the archway of the dormitory area.
Lin Feng took out his key and opened the door to dormitory room number 56. Vassim had just woken up, looked Lin Feng over for a moment, and then jokingly said with a smile:
"Your dark circles are so bad, you must have been up a lot last night, right?"
Lin Feng coughed lightly: "The kitten slipped outside last night, and it took us a long time to find it."
Wasim raised an eyebrow and pulled a cigarette case from his pocket: "Want one to perk you up?"
Lin Feng waved his hand: "No need, I have plenty of energy."
After a quick tidying up and washing, the two followed the other chosen ones who were getting up and headed to the Zhaixin Hall.
........................
Zhaixintang.
The atmosphere was silent and numb, carrying a sense of resigned oppression.
Xia Ning floated to the center of the hall, her voice as cool and clear as ever:
"The dining rules remain unchanged today—a vote will be held to select one dormitory room, and all members of that room will be responsible for testing the food."
The bronze sound-recording stone emerged, and the bronze mirror lit up.
Voting begins.
In the end, Wuyun Shandan of the Canglang Kingdom was selected with 11 votes.
She is now the only one left in her dormitory, number 14.
In other words, she has to try all four windows' worth of noodles by herself.
The probability of poisoning is as high as 75%!
Wu Yunshan stood up, straightened her clothes, and walked calmly toward the four dark windows on the north wall.
She stopped in front of window number 1.
A pale hand reached out from the window, holding a steaming bowl of vegetarian noodles.
Wu Yunshan Dan took the bowl of noodles and placed it on a small table that the black-clad butler had specially brought over.
She was the only one left in the dormitory, and it would be a waste of time to go back and forth to table 14 for a meal.
She sat down on the chair next to the small table, glanced down at the plain noodles, clasped her hands together, closed her eyes, and whispered a few words of prayer in the language of the Azure Wolf.
Then he picked up his chopsticks, scooped up a mouthful of noodles, and put it in his mouth.
chew.
Swallow.
She paused quietly for five seconds, and her body showed no abnormalities.
Wu Yunshan stood up and walked towards window number 2.
Inside window number 2, a pale hand reached out again, bringing another bowl of plain noodles.
Wu Yunshan picked up the bowl and took another bite.
Nothing.
She walked to window number 3.
The third bowl.
The third bite.
After swallowing, she stood there for five seconds.
Nothing happened.
Since windows 1, 2, and 3 are all fine, the toxic window is now identified as window 4.
Wu Yunshan carried the third bowl of noodles back to table number 14, sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat the noodles calmly.
This time, it wasn't a taste test for poison, but a real meal.
The room was so quiet you could hear her eating noodles.
Xia Ning's cool voice rang out slowly: "The poison testing is over. Please line up in an orderly manner to receive your meals."
Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and spontaneously formed a long queue, heading towards the window one by one.
