Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 204 - 149: Sister Dong, I’m Here_2

"Xiao Zhan has to guard the National Gate, even if he wants to hunt me down, he can’t leave for years, as long as I don’t go north, I probably won’t run into him. The Second Prince has immense power and countless spies; every town near Dragon Capital surely has his informants. Looks like I can only head south, toward where the Red Lotus Sect’s rebel faction is strongest. Luckily, the Red Lotus Sect people don’t know their Young Master died at my hands, so they shouldn’t have any reason to come after me. As long as I keep my identity hidden and stay low-key, I shouldn’t have any trouble."

Jiang Feng muttered to himself.

"It’s a pity—leaving Zhenbei Prison, it’ll be much harder to find another place to earn Fortune Points."

"Still, at least I have endless time ahead. There’s no rush to get more Fortune Points, as long as I make it through all these dangers, my Fortune Points should definitely rise by a lot."

"But who knows, after Xiao Ran wakes up, what will he tell Xiao Zhan? With Xiao Zhan’s temper, even if there’s no proof I used Jin Muchuan to indirectly hurt Xiao Ran, as long as Xiao Ran tells him I know Loulan Slash, Xiao Zhan definitely won’t let me go."

"And there’s the Second Prince—he suffered such a big loss, it’s impossible he’d leave things alone."

Jiang Feng felt he had nowhere to turn.

This place, Dragon Capital, he couldn’t stay any longer.

He calculated the time—the city gates would open soon. He could leave with the crowd; by the time Xiao Ran wakes up, he would have already left Dragon Capital, and Xiao Zhan wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.

"What a shame—worked so hard to save up a hundred and ten thousand Fortune Points, and tonight they’re all gone."

Jiang Feng felt a pang in his heart.

A hundred and ten thousand Fortune Points—only bought him Mastery Level in Three-legged Body Technique, and Minor Success Level in Wind Palm.

But at least, he wasn’t caught by Xiao Zhan.

"Golden Road... I still don’t know what makes it appear again?"

Jiang Feng muttered.

He knew how lucky he’d been to escape alive just now, all thanks to that suddenly appearing golden pathway. But for now, he still didn’t understand how it was triggered; it didn’t show up every time he used the Three-legged Body Technique.

Just now must’ve been a coincidence, only then was it possible.

"Let’s see how much my Fortune Points went up; if I could escape from Xiao Zhan, it surely can’t be a small amount."

Jiang Feng immediately checked his status panel.

Name: Jiang Feng

Fortune: 56777

"Fifty thousand-plus? That much?"

Jiang Feng was shocked.

He knew he’d completely spent his hundred and ten thousand Fortune Points just now, not a single point left.

"Xiao Zhan’s a Celestial Profound Realm powerhouse, and I’m just in the Primordial Realm. By all accounts, I’d be dead for sure. To manage a jump of fifty thousand plus—it kind of makes sense."

Jiang Feng muttered.

As his cultivation advanced,

The threats capable of hurting him kept getting more dangerous, and the Fortune Points he earned kept increasing. But he hadn’t expected that just escaping from Xiao Zhan would net him over fifty thousand Fortune Points.

"If I could escape from Xiao Zhan a few more times, wouldn’t I be able to level up really fast?"

"But too bad—if I provoke danger on purpose, I won’t get any Fortune Points."

"If I hadn’t been caught off guard tonight, if I hadn’t stumbled into Xiao Zhan’s trap, there would’ve been no gain at all."

Jiang Feng felt both lucky and deeply unsettled.

"Just wonder—with these over fifty-six thousand Fortune Points, if I spend all of them on Wind Palm, how far can I take it?"

Jiang Feng thought again.

He was about to get hunted by Xiao Zhan and the Second Prince’s men, so for his Skills, anything that could be upgraded had to be upgraded, he couldn’t afford to dawdle like before.

Fortune: 71255

"Huh? It’s gone up again?"

Just as Jiang Feng was thinking, the status panel he hadn’t closed yet flickered—his Fortune Points increased again.

"This... Another ten thousand plus—how did it rise again?"

Jiang Feng was stunned.

He knew that whenever Fortune Points increased, it meant he’d survived danger.

"Could it be the Yun Gui Sect’s Immortal Master got into trouble, and I ended up hurting them?"

"No, I clearly saw they were fine, right?"

"Then what’s up with these Fortune Points?"

Jiang Feng put down his bundle, sat back down on the bed.

The unexpected surge in Fortune Points puzzled him; he couldn’t help but start thinking it over. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"I must’ve dodged another round of danger—could it be that Xiao Ran got into trouble again?"

Jiang Feng frowned.

"If Xiao Zhan still hasn’t appeared by morning, then it means something definitely happened to Xiao Ran—at the very least, he still hasn’t woken up."

Jiang Feng suspected, but felt it was very possible.

Soon the sky was bright.

Jiang Feng went about his morning routine, washing rice and making porridge, all the while keeping an eye on the ebb and flow of Heaven and Earth’s power around him.

After eating,

He met up with Uncle Huo at the entrance of the alley.

The two of them headed together for Zhenbei Prison.

Jiang Feng felt nervous, but still walked into Zhenbei Prison.

He entered the third level.

This time, he made sure to walk further inside.

He went near Han Dong’s courtyard, to sense any changes in the aura within.

He discovered someone was there in the courtyard.

It was Han Dong.

"Chief Wang, Chief Ma, Chief Feng!"

Jiang Feng called out instantly.

"Here!"

The three replied in unison.

"Come patrol outside with me!"

Jiang Feng raised his voice.

"Yes, sir!"

The three replied at the same time.

They followed Jiang Feng and began patrolling their jurisdiction.

All the tension left Jiang Feng. Since Han Dong was at Zhenbei Prison, it meant Xiao Ran hadn’t woken up, and the Yun Gui Sect Immortal Master either had an issue and couldn’t awaken Xiao Ran, or was on their way back.

Otherwise—

No matter if Xiao Ran had woken up or not,

As long as the Yun Gui Sect Immortal Master was working on waking Xiao Ran, Han Dong wouldn’t stay at Zhenbei Prison; she’d be waiting by Xiao Ran’s side for him to wake up.

Her presence in Zhenbei Prison could only mean either Xiao Ran couldn’t wake up, or the Yun Gui Sect Immortal Master had left.
