Chapter 248: Chapter 143: Number 0’s Kidney Strike, Three Consecutive Entries
Seeing how agitated Zero was, he finally reacted and blurted out, "I just saw my sister! My own sister!!"
"What’s wrong with that? Can’t I do that??"
Huh?
Shen Fei’s answer stunned Zero for a moment. But a moment later, she had an even bigger outburst.
"You’re full of shit!!!" she shrieked. "How dare you lie to me!! Could your own sister make you feel *that*?! Ah!!! You liar!! You scumbag!!!"
Shen Fei’s mention of his "own sister" had truly caught Zero off guard. But a moment later, she became even more enraged. The emotion she sensed inside Shen Fei couldn’t possibly have come from his sister. It was impossible for anyone to pick up that kind of feeling from their own sister.
He’s lying to me again! He’s *still* lying to me! I’m so furious!
Feeling she had been deceived again, Zero let out an even louder shriek and struggled harder.
Meanwhile, Shen Fei, who was standing opposite her, was genuinely confused.
"Stop shouting! Let me explain, here’s what happened..."
To get Zero to calm down, a helpless Shen Fei had no choice but to tell her everything that had happened since he left Mist City, down to the last detail. He even told her about stepping through the Teleportation Gate and having to adjust himself ’down there’ afterward.
.
.
"Really??"
Zero blushed as she listened to Shen Fei’s explanation. She glanced down at the ’big carrot’ in his pants, which had indeed not yet subsided, and asked with a look of utter disbelief.
"Yeah! That’s exactly what happened!!"
Of course, Shen Fei omitted any mention of Magnus or his rebirth. And while he couldn’t explain the shock he felt hearing Magnus’s name, he told her everything else that had happened in Qing City.
So that was her!!!
Since Shen Fei hadn’t told her the full story, Zero filled in the blanks and formed a rough picture of Xiaohong in her mind.
"Let me go!!"
Convinced that Shen Fei was truly innocent, Zero roared at him. Then, Shen Fei quickly released the vines that bound her.
"Um...?"
Seeing that Zero was willing to communicate, Shen Fei opened his mouth. He wanted to tell her that he had been in a relationship with V, but since V had now committed suicide, he was actually available...
"Shut up!!!"
But before Shen Fei could finish, Zero had already cut him off with a roar. Knowing she had misunderstood Shen Fei, she could only pretend to still be angry to keep him from gaining the upper hand. It was a ’husband-taming technique’ she had learned before the apocalypse from a secret forum.
Seize the initiative. Launch the first attack!
Even though Shen Fei wasn’t her husband, the method would work just fine right now. Looking over her shoulder, she saw that Shen Fei was, as expected, completely dumbfounded and had stopped talking.
"Give it here!!"
Before Shen Fei could react, Zero snatched the Divine Artifact from his hand. When she saw that the Divine Artifact from Country F actually had a charging skill called [Knight’s Power], Zero didn’t hesitate. She grabbed her Waist Cutter and the artifact and, CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!, smashed them together.
Then, the use count for the Country F Divine Artifact’s [Knight’s Power] instantly dropped to zero. Meanwhile, the charge count on the [Scamming Waist Cutter] in Zero’s hand shot straight up to three. This charge count, which was supposed to increase through a large volume of trades in the [Ninth World], had instantly become "3" after being imbued with three special blessings from the Country F Divine Artifact.
"Give it here!"
Moving quickly and not giving Shen Fei a chance to speak, Zero tossed the Divine Artifact from Country F back into his hand and snatched the [Nine-Phase Divine Bottle] from his other one.
SQUISH. POP.
SQUISH. POP.
SQUISH. POP.
With three quick thrusts, Zero charged the uses of Shen Fei’s [Long-range Teleportation] up to three.
WHOOSH.
Once the charging was complete, and having thus compensated for her earlier "rudeness," Zero teleported back to Mist City without another word. At the same time, she severed all her Divine Artifact Links with Shen Fei.
I can’t contact him for at least a week!
Back in Mist City, Zero, who had been forcing a stern expression moments before, now found her cheeks burning red as she immediately made her decision.
"What the hell???"
Zero’s whirlwind of actions had been as fierce as a tiger, giving Shen Fei no chance to get a word in. Then she left without another word, leaving Shen Fei standing alone in Country F, his thoughts a chaotic mess. Staring at the three restored uses of his [Long-range Teleportation], he was even more baffled.
What is that woman doing? She shows up in a rage, charges up my depleted Long-range Teleportation, and then just leaves. What was that all about?
WHOOSH.
After standing there in a daze for a long while, Shen Fei finally shook his head and deactivated the [Knight Arena] skill of the Divine Artifact from Country F. Soon, after retrieving the Knight Arena from the center of the stadium and terminating the teleportation function tied to the Divine Artifact Link, Shen Fei, still shaking his head in confusion, returned to Qing City.
"Bro!!!"
The moment he returned to Qing City, he saw Sun Yu in the lead, followed by Shen Yue and Xiaohong, all rushing toward him excitedly.
