"Mm, I specifically picked this for you~"
Ye Feng nodded, feeling quite satisfied with the aura emanating from Qian Renxue.
Though her cultivation hadn't advanced, her aura had clearly strengthened, and her combat prowess was even more remarkable.
Moreover, under the enhancement of the Rule of Light, Qian Renxue's cultivation speed would also improve significantly.
A Simulated Environment essentially allowed cultivation under suitable rules.
This was especially true for Soul Masters with elemental attributes—their training efficiency was far greater within such an environment.
Qian Renxue's golden Lexical Trait was akin to possessing an incredibly powerful "Simulated Environment" of her own. Even as a Soul Saint, her cultivation speed would still see a substantial boost.
"Hehe, you're so good to me, Ye Feng~"
Hearing this, Qian Renxue felt an inexplicable warmth in her heart. She threw herself at him, wrapping her arms around him and nuzzling her cheek against his.
Even though Ye Feng couldn't always be by her side, she knew he never forgot about her.
And now, he had even brought her such a precious gift.
Of course, even if he had given her something ordinary, she would have been happy—what mattered to her was the thought, not the value of the gift.
At this moment, Qian Renxue felt everything was worth it.
"Let's go. I'm free these next few days, so I can take you out to have some fun~" Ye Feng tilted his head slightly and planted a kiss on her cheek.
Inhaling the fragrance of her hair and skin, Ye Feng felt his desires stirring again.
But since it was almost mealtime, he figured they should eat first—after all, one needed energy for certain activities.
"Huh? We're leaving just like that? Aren't you going to do... something?"
Qian Renxue was slightly surprised.
Given Ye Feng's usual temperament, he would've already taken her right then and there...
She had even prepared herself for it.
Why was he suddenly acting differently today?
Not that she minded—in fact, she was feeling a little eager herself.
Ever since being with Ye Feng, she had completely abandoned her "manual" habits, reserving herself solely for him.
And now, she had been saving up for months...
"Oh? My dear Your Highness, you seem rather impatient, don't you?"
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, gently pushing Qian Renxue against a nearby pillar. He lifted her chin with a finger, his tone teasing.
He hadn't expected Qian Renxue to be even more eager than him.
The Qian Renxue from before would never have been like this.
"N-No way! I was just..."
Qian Renxue stammered, clearly unable to come up with an excuse.
Seeing her adorable flustered expression, Ye Feng couldn't hold back any longer and pressed himself against her.
Soon after, strange sounds echoed through the grand hall...
...
...
Seven days later.
Ye Feng left Heaven Dou City.
His journey to find the Dragon Valley had officially begun.
Oh, and he brought the Three-Eyed Golden Lion along as well.
...
The Boundless Sea.
Ye Feng walked atop the water's surface, ripples spreading beneath his feet.
The deep blue ocean stretched endlessly toward the horizon, its waves surging like thousands of galloping steeds, their silver-white crests rolling endlessly under the howling salt-laden winds.
In the distance, towering waves met the stormy clouds, as though the heavens themselves had been torn asunder. The deafening roar of the sea carried the briny mist, crashing against them with relentless force.
No matter how turbulent the surrounding waves were, they couldn't approach within a hundred meters of Ye Feng.
"Huff~ So this is the ocean? It's so magnificent~"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion perched on Ye Feng's shoulder, the sea breeze ruffling its smooth golden fur, stirring an inexplicable excitement in its heart.
Having just been born, it had never seen much of the world, let alone such a breathtaking expanse of the sea.
Originally, it had been reluctant to leave Sky Curtain City, still lingering over the delicious food there and even feeling a bit resentful that Ye Feng had forcibly taken it away.
But the moment it laid eyes on this vast, majestic ocean, it instantly felt the trip was worth it.
Not just the Three-Eyed Golden Lion—this was also Ye Feng's first time seeing the ocean in this world.
Because this was a fantasy world, the seas here were infinitely more dangerous than those of his past life.
Beyond the threats of weather, the depths hid countless "hunters" lying in wait.
The Soul Beasts of the ocean had never been hunted by humans.
Among them, the number of powerful Soul Beasts was beyond counting.
It was precisely for this reason that human Soul Masters today were completely incapable of developing the ocean.
Long-distance voyages were out of the question—they were practically a death sentence.
When Ye Feng first entered the ocean, he had encountered numerous ambushes from Soul Beasts.
But the moment he unleashed the faint Dragon Might of his Martial Soul, not a single Soul Beast dared approach within ten thousand meters.
This saved him a lot of trouble.
"Ye Feng, where exactly are we going?" the Three-Eyed Golden Lion asked curiously.
They had no idea which part of the ocean they were in now—looking around, there was nothing but endless sea, with no sense of direction whatsoever.
"This time, we're looking for a place called 'Dragon Valley.' It was once the burial ground of the Dragon God. Given your draconic Bloodline, it's an incredible opportunity for you," Ye Feng explained without holding back.
After all, finding Dragon Valley depended mostly on luck—and they would need the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's innate fortune to succeed.
His [Space Hunter] Talent allowed him to detect hidden pocket dimensions, but only if he got close enough.
If they couldn't even get near Dragon Valley's location, then this Talent might as well not exist.
Ye Feng carried the Three-Eyed Golden Lion as they traveled westward.
Before long, Ye Feng spotted a massive stretch of land.
"Look, it's a continent!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion abruptly straightened up, exclaiming in surprise.
"That must be the Sun Moon Continent. Come on, let's check it out."
Ye Feng didn't seem the least bit surprised, as if he had expected this.
After all, thousands of years later, the Sun Moon Continent would collide with the Douluo Continent.
Though there might have been 'Tang San's' meddling involved, regardless, it proved that the Sun Moon Continent wasn't too far from Douluo Continent at this time.
It was just that, due to the backwardness of their maritime technology, even though the two continents were relatively close, the people of both lands remained completely unaware of each other.
But Ye Feng could traverse hundreds of miles in an instant—as long as their general direction was correct, reaching the Sun Moon Continent was only a matter of time.
"Brother Ye Feng, let's go take a look! A whole new continent—there must be so much delicious food~" The Three-Eyed Golden Lion lightly licked Ye Feng's ear, nuzzling affectionately against his neck, its little tail wagging furiously in excitement.
"Such a glutton..."
Ye Feng pinched the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's chubby cheeks, sighing in resignation.
Still, he swiftly teleported forward with it in tow.
After all, he also wanted to see the new continent for himself.
A few breaths later, Ye Feng arrived above the Sun Moon Continent.
With his concealment techniques and high-altitude flight, even the most advanced detection-type Soul Guidance Devices couldn't capture Ye Feng's figure.
Unless a Soul Master happened to look up, they might catch a glimpse of him.
After all, Ye Feng wasn't invisible—those with keen eyesight could naturally spot him.
