(Free.) As the sun rises, the first light of dawn appears on the horizon, dew drops hang from the edges of leaves, reflecting the sun's rays, dazzling with seven colors.

  "Hmm." Ye Feng felt a slight headache, raised his hand and rubbed his temples forcefully, making an effort to open his eyes.

  Only saw the flat bluestone, where many people were lying horizontally and vertically, including Zhong Li Ye Ge and Qiu Si Yao. Everyone was still asleep.

  "Master, you're awake." Tang Jing Tian and Wu Liang appeared before Ye Feng.

  Yesterday, no one knew how much wine they had drunk, only that the broken wine jars were piled up high.

  The two of them, however, remained dutiful and did not follow the crowd's madness. They simply drank a few jars of wine casually and then took up their guard duties responsibly.

  And under Ye Feng's coercion, no one was allowed to gather spiritual energy to dispel the effects of alcohol, and in the end, everyone got drunk.

  Hearing the noise from this side, everyone woke up one after another.

  Several women were very embarrassed, losing their composure in front of everyone. When they woke up, Mei Zhi Ruo discovered that she was actually sleeping with Qiu Si Yao in each other's arms, which made her dare not face the crowd, and her face was covered with dense red clouds.

  Qiu Siyao seemed to have no reaction at all, and only whispered to Ye Feng: "The feel is not bad, it's not small either. You'll be lucky in the future, Ye Feng."

  Ye Feng's eyes narrowed as he glared at Qiu Si, "Qiu sister, you're not being reasonable, daring to lay hands on my woman. Let me teach you a lesson."

  Qiu Siyao smiled, "What's wrong, aren't you satisfied? Or would you like to catch him back?"

  Ye Feng was taken aback, his face suddenly turned red, and he didn't dare look at Qiu Siyao again.

  This female devil, I'm at a loss as to how to deal with her myself.

  "Cough cough." Zhong Lì Yè Gē's voice came over, out of place.

  Ye Feng quickly let go of Qiu Siyao's hand and looked towards Zhong Lixiaoge.

  "Ye Feng, I'm going back to the Zhong Lisi family, I'll take my leave," said Zhong Liye.

  "What's the hurry to leave, is there something urgent?" Ye Feng asked.

  "It's been a long time since I left my family, and things have come to an end here. Next, I'll go into seclusion to break through the Golden Core period. This time, I've opened my eyes, previously in Zhongzhou, I thought I was quite impressive, but after witnessing this attack on Qingguang Sect, I've gained a clearer understanding of my own strength, and I must work harder." Zhong Liye said with emotion.

  "Yefeng, I have to go too. Now my brother is the head of the Zhongzhou Antique Appraisal Chamber's branch, and some things still need me to decide personally, can't stay outside for long. Let's meet again when you return to Zhongzhou." Xu Qiang also bid farewell to Yefeng.

  "Ye Feng, I just received news that something has happened in the south and many cultivators are rushing there. You're not busy anyway, why don't you go join the excitement?" Zhong Li Ye Ge said.

  "Oh? What's all the commotion, aren't you going to go have some fun?" Ye Feng asked.

  "I don't know the specifics, but I'm not going anyway. Even if treasures appear there, it's fine if you don't go, others will still have a chance. But once you go, others might as well give up." Zhong Li Ye Ge shook his head, advancing to the Golden Elixir stage was more important than anything else for him, this was a crucial factor in determining whether he could stand firm in the Zhong Li family.

  "Alright, since that's the case, I'll head to the south for a trip. Once I get my hands on the treasure there, I'll reunite with all of you." Ye Feng made a fist at Zhong Liye and Xu Qiang.

  Zhong Li and Xiang Liu drove their flying swords away separately.

  "Yefeng, you can go with peace of mind, I'll take good care of these little lovers of yours." Qiu Siyao whispered in Yefeng's ear.

  "Huh?" Ye Feng was taken aback, what's going on? He quickly turned his head to look back, and somehow, Zhen Xuetian and Mei Zhiruo were both standing beside Qiu Siyao, while Yin Mengli also seemed to be following Qiu Siyao.

  "I'm telling you, Qiu sister, my people are also being robbed." Ye Feng walked up to Qiu Siyao, he did so with good intentions. With Ye Feng's current abilities, having a few people following him would bring many inconveniences, making it difficult for him to act freely and do as he pleased.

  Ye Feng's current achievements are partly due to luck. More importantly, Ye Feng is bold and meticulous, often daring to take risks. If Xuan Xue Tian and others followed him, it would be completely different, even with the internal world, it's not omnipotent.

  "Brother Biao, go and earn a lot of crystal stones for us three, as well as various magical treasures. Actually, wanting to have beautiful women by your side isn't an easy thing either." Zhen Xuetian said with her mouth unguarded.

  "What's wrong with you three? Don't talk nonsense." Ye Feng said awkwardly.

  "Of course it's Elder Sister Mei and Elder Sister Meng. Can't we just get the crystal stones and magical artifacts we need for cultivation from him? What's the point of having a man like him around?" Zhen Xuetian said, then turned to Mei Zhi Ruo and Yin Meng Li, "Both elder sisters, if Ye Feng can't provide us with enough crystal stones, then we won't bother with him. Later on, when we find better men, we'll just dump him."

  Mei Zhi Ruo and Yin Meng Li both had a flush on their faces, what's going on here?

  Ye Feng was like drinking honey, feeling sweet and warm in his heart. From what Xuan Xue Tian said, it seemed that Yin Meng Li also had some feelings for him.

  "Goodbye, Sister Qi. I'll be off then, take care of my three women for me." With that, Ye Feng jumped onto Xiao Hong's back and flew southward with a wave of his hand.

  "Little brother, how are you going to thank me?" Ou Siyao said.

  "Qiu sister, wait for me to come back, I'll catch you then." Ye Feng's lewd words reached Qiu Siyu's ears.

  "This little thing dares to flirt with me." Qiu Siyao said angrily.

  Yin Mengli stared blankly at Ye Feng's receding back, she had just changed from being his junior to being his sister, how did she become his woman, it was too overbearing and shameless.

  However, the red glow on Yin Mengli's face never faded.

  Ye Feng hummed a little tune all the way, with an extremely comfortable mood, heading to the south that Zhong Li Ye Ge had mentioned.

  With no more worries, Ye Feng regained his usual good mood.

  After a month of rushing along the way, Ye Feng arrived at Xiadu State, the southernmost part of the Nine States.

  After passing through Xizhou, I left the territory of Jiuzhou and headed south into Nanhuang.

  Nanhuang and Jiuzhou are equally famous, each being a region of the mainland.

  This continent is mainly divided into five huge regions: Nanhuang, Dongjing, Beimo, Xiyu and Jiuzhou.

  Jiuzhou is located in the middle of the other four regions and can directly enter the other four regions. For a monk from Nanhuang to go to Beimo, he must pass through Jiuzhou, and Dongjing and Xiyu are also the same.

  The change mentioned in Zhongli's Night Song occurred in Xiadu Prefecture, which borders Nanhuang.

  The territory of Xia Yu is also quite vast, no smaller than Zhong Zhou.

  Arriving in Xià Dú Zhōu, Ye Feng felt that the humanities and geography here were completely different from those of Zhōng Zhōu. Perhaps it was because of its proximity to Nán Huāng that Xià Dú Zhōu seemed more like an undeveloped wasteland.

  It is said that the lair of the demon tribe in Nanhuang is obviously less developed than most of Jiuzhou, and it is basically a primitive wilderness.

  It's quite common to see demon clan cultivators here, and human cultivators are also often seen, getting along with the demon clan seemingly very well, some even putting their shoulders together, looking rather intimate.

  The location of the change is closer to Nanzhong, at the southernmost tip of Xizhou.

  There is a desolate plain, said to be a fertile field in ancient times, with endless forests and grasslands growing.

  But now what comes into view is a sea of sand, looking up, the rolling yellow sand, the storm rises, covering the sky and blocking the sun.

  When the wind and waves calm down, the scenery of the sandy sea is still very beautiful, with a blue sky and orange-yellow sand grains.

  Stepping on the fine sand grains, Ye Feng felt that the temperature under his feet was very high, as if the sand grains were nurturing infinite heat.

  Less than half a day after entering the desert, a small city appeared. Such cities are rare in the desert and generally only exist on the periphery of the desert. The main function of the city is nothing more than an inn and shops.

  In the desert sea, there are countless spiritual beasts, and the spiritual beasts in the desert sea are unique. The spiritual beasts that survive here are not found elsewhere, so many monks consider the desert sea a good place to search for gold, entering the depths of the desert sea to hunt and kill spiritual beasts.

  Before entering the desert, they would stock up on necessities in the small town, and after hunting for spiritual beasts, they would also trade them in the small town.

  However, the Desert of Shattered Dreams seems to have infinite charm and endless wealth, but it's not a good place. Every year, countless cultivators who enter the desert can't come out again.

  Ye Feng entered the small town, wanting to know what changes had occurred in the depths of the desert or what kind of treasure had appeared. The small town was the best source of information.

  The main body of the small city is built up with sand.

  Ye Feng took a closer look and realized that this was not just a simple accumulation of sand. If it were just a pile of sand, the small town would probably cease to exist after a storm.

  But grain by grain of orange-yellow sand showed that it was absolutely identical with the sand underfoot.

  Ye Feng stopped to watch, and casually touched the city wall with his hand. He discovered the subtlety of it, originally every grain of sand was as if it had a very strong adhesive force, firmly sticking together.

  But couldn't see what material was used to stick the sand grains together, through the palm of his hand, Ye Feng felt that it was actually spiritual energy that gathered these sand grains together.

  Each grain of sand has a strong attraction between them, and they are attached to each other through spiritual energy, forming the main body of this small city.

  Ye Feng couldn't help but sigh in admiration, what kind of person's grand brushstroke could gather so much sand together and keep it from dispersing for a thousand years? Probably only the legendary immortals could have such cultivation.

  Walking on the streets of a small town, Ye Feng suddenly discovered that no matter how strong the wind was outside the town, there was not a single thread of wind inside the town.

  The city wall of the small town is like a natural barrier, blocking out strong winds and sandstorms.

  The street is not very spacious, with shops and stalls on both sides, as well as various wine houses.

  A whiff of fragrance wafted into Ye Feng's nostrils, and following the scent, he saw a shop entrance with a long barbecue rack placed at the door, filled with all sorts of spiritual beast meat, skewered together with iron hooks, giving off a flavor reminiscent of that world's kebabs.

  However, the skewers in this world are more affordable, and Ye Feng saw that the largest skewer had a small beast on it.

  "Sir, try some, I guarantee you'll be craving for more. After eating this time, you'll think about the next time. I'm the best at roasting skewers here, if you don't try some, you'll regret it for the rest of your life." The roasted skewer vendor was promoting his wares to Ye Feng.

  Ye Feng stopped in his tracks and looked over, his eyes settling on the roasted sand scorpions on the rack. These sand scorpions lived in the sandy sea and weren't considered to be of high quality or have any great use, so the cultivators simply used them as a delicacy.

  Scorpions can be over a foot long, with their outer shell roasted to a golden yellow color. Occasionally, the hard shell bursts open, revealing tender and delicious meat that looks so appetizing.

  Ye Feng asked, this roasted skewer looks very affordable, but the price is indeed not cheap, a single roasted sandworm costs one top-grade crystal stone.

  One top-grade crystal stone can be exchanged for a thousand mid-grade crystal stones, which is enough for a warrior to break through the Gathering Qi stage.

  Ye Feng didn't mind this small amount of money although he needed a lot of crystal stones.

  He reached out and took out a piece of low-grade crystal stone and placed it in front of the vendor, "I'll take a thousand roasted sand scorpions."

  "Clang!" The skewers in the vendor's hand fell onto the shelf. Afraid that he had misheard the quantity, he looked at the inferior crystal in front of him and felt delighted in his heart. Today was indeed a lucky day for him to meet such a generous customer, who spent 1,000 roasted sand scorpions all at once.

  "If you want to taste the flavor of Sha Hai, please come to this wine shop and try the roasted sandworms, drink our exclusive brewed Shalan wine, that's a pleasure beyond the gods." The small vendor generously handed over his clothes and continued to promote the fine wines sold in the wine shop behind him to Ye Feng.

  "Alright, bring me the roasted scorpions whenever they're ready." Ye Feng entered the wine tavern.

  The tavern was crowded with people, most of whom were holding a skewer in one hand and a wine cup in the other.

  The layout of the wine shop was similar to that of a bar in another world. Ye Feng found a seat and sat down, then a bartender came over and asked him what he wanted to order.

  Ye Feng ordered ten bottles of Chardonnay.

  The bartender was shocked, the wine was very strong, everyone used cups to count, and few monks would order a barrel, but this one opened his mouth and ordered ten barrels.

  But astonishingly, the wine keeper didn't dare to ask Ye Feng if he could finish it, because if he couldn't, he would take it away. The tavern had no such rule that forbade customers from taking away the Salan wine, but rather, the more wine the customer drank, the higher the wine keeper's commission would be.

  Soon, ten jars of Salan wine were placed in front of Ye Feng, and the small vendor's speed at roasting skewers was not slow either. Twenty scorpions also came up with it.

  After the vendors and wine keepers left, Ye Feng took in more than a dozen sand scorpions and five jars of sand lan wine into his inner world, where there were not only Sanlang and Xiaohong, but also many people from the Ye family.

  Ye Feng had yet to find a suitable place to settle the Ye family, and they had grown accustomed to the world within his body, contentedly making it their home.

  Eating delicious sandworms, no wonder the little vendor dares to boast, the roasted sandworms are really not bad.

  "Hmm." This Xanadu wine tastes good too, quite strong.

  Ye Feng was enjoying fine wine and delicacies.

  The street vendor was constantly delivering roasted scorpions, but found that he couldn't keep up with Ye Feng's eating speed. Even if the street vendor pushed away all his other customers and only roasted scorpions for Ye Feng himself, he still couldn't keep up with Ye Feng's rhythm.

  The little vendor muttered to himself, could it be that this person is a big-bellied member of the demon tribe? Otherwise, how could so many sand scorpions be eaten in the blink of an eye? And yet, he only saw a tiny bit of shell, they say that when eating people, one doesn't spit out bones, but this guy didn't even spit out shells when eating sand scorpions.

  What made Xiao Fanzi even more surprised was that Ye Feng had drunk all the wine jars, and in front of Ye Feng, there were only four unopened jars and a half-bottle of Chardonnay left.

  Didn't dare to look more, afraid of offending the master, the small vendor's hands moved even faster, and didn't even have time to wipe away the sweat dripping from his face.

  "Bring a roasted sand pig." Several customers came in front of the busy street vendor and ordered that whole small pig.

  This is also a delicacy in the desert, and its body size is not very large. An adult sand pig weighs only about 70 or 80 kilograms.

  These few have a good appetite, but compared to Ye Feng, they are nothing. In front of the great witch, even the little witch can't be counted.

  "Sorry, I really don't have time today." The vendor smiled apologetically, this was simply a happy trouble.

  When business is bad, it's hard to open up, but when business is good, there's no time to serve customers, and that's also a loss of income.

  "What are you busy with? Isn't this a barbecue?" a monk said impatiently.

  "That customer just ordered a thousand roasted scorpions, and I've only managed to roast over a hundred so far. There's no way I'll have time to finish the rest this afternoon." The vendor spoke with an apologetic tone.

  "I don't care about your thousand sandworms or not, just roast one for me right now. Stop cheating me, who has such a big appetite? He ordered a thousand roasted sandworms, does he want to eat until death?" One of the monks cursed and said.

  Ye Feng heard it clearly in the tavern, but restrained his temper and didn't flare up. Ye Feng constantly reminded himself that impulsiveness was the devil, he wasn't here to fight, but to search for treasure, making a fortune quietly was the real truth.

  "Gentlemen, if you don't mind, these two roasted scorpions are a small token of respect from me. Please accept them and change your seats, I'll serve you again next time." The vendor handed over the two roasted scorpions to several people in front of him.

  "Slap!" A tall monk slapped a small vendor's roasted sandworm out of his hand and onto the ground.

  "Damn it, what do you take me for? Do I look like a beggar? Give me two bucks and send me off, quickly, or else I'll kill you."

  The tall monk changed his face instantly without any preparation process, leaving the little vendor caught off guard.

  Staring blankly at several people, the street vendor didn't know what to do.

  Don't give these few people roasted sand pig, it's clear that they are not easy to mess with. And giving them roasted sand pig, the guests inside have already paid for the crystal stone. Looking at their speed of eating sand scorpions, they can no longer afford it themselves. If such an accident happens again, they will be in big trouble.

  "Wait a minute, sir. Let me go in and talk to the customer and see if he can make an exception." The vendor's face was all smiles. These days, even a small-time vendor like him couldn't make a living easily.

  "Discussing nonsense, what compromise? Call that guy inside out to see me. I'd like to see which saint he is, having such an appetite, and not being afraid of bursting to death." These people obviously didn't take the Ye Feng inside seriously.
