Extreme Almightiest Chapter 1288 - 1286: He Doesn’t Have That Much Time

Chapter 1288: Chapter 1286: He Doesn’t Have That Much Ti

"Hang in there. After all, the commotion last night was too big to ignore. There’s really no other choice. I’m considering ways to avoid this happening again in the future. If it works out, we won’t have to deal with this sort of hassle anymore."

Lin Feng chid in to offer so comfort. Tianhai City was such a ss these days, with so many cultivators around, that situations like this were almost inevitable. To restore peace, there were only two solutions. One was to wait until the Immortal’s Relic Mansion on the sea opened, which would disperse the cultivators. The other was to construct a new small world. However, both options required ti, and there was no way to speed them up. For now, they could only manage to maintain as best as they could.

"Don’t worry. Dealing with a few reporters is no big deal—it’s just annoying, that’s all. Anyway, let’s stop talking about it and eat. After this, I still have to head to work. I bet there are journalists already waiting at the principal’s office by now." Smiling, Ding Wan’er replied lightheartedly to Lin Feng. After saying this, she quickly called the other won to join her for breakfast. She indeed had a lot to take care of today.

Before long, everyone finished eating. Ding Wan’er and Leng i left for work, while Lin Feng thought for a mont before turning and leaving the villa as well. The outermost protective barrier of the battlefield from last night was no longer needed, so he naturally wanted to reclaim the materials he used to construct it. After dismantling the array, Lin Feng decided to check in on the children’s training. Ti passed by just like that.

As noon approached, Lin Feng suddenly received a call from Ding Wan’er.

"Wan’er, what’s up?" Ding Wan’er usually didn’t call him, so as soon as Lin Feng answered, he casually asked what was going on.

"Lin Feng, here’s the thing. Sister Leng has a friend who just returned from abroad and invited her to a al. Sister Leng originally wanted

to go with her, but I’ve been too busy to make ti. If you’re free, could you go in my place? I have a feeling sothing’s off about this. If it were a close friend, Sister Leng wouldn’t have insisted on taking

along." On the other end, Ding Wan’er explained the situation in detail. At first, she hadn’t thought much of it, but the more she considered it, the stranger it seed, which was why she decided to call Lin Feng.

"No problem. I’ll go take a look." Hearing this, Lin Feng agreed imdiately. After responding, he hung up the phone, opened the GPS on his phone to locate Leng i, and disappeared in a flash.

......

anwhile, in a private room at the Jingjiang Grand Hotel, Leng i was chatting with a few young won. These won were all from prominent families, and they had played together as children. It was because of this shared history that Leng i decided to attend the gathering.

"I’m so happy to see all of you now that I’m back! It was so hard to co back this ti, so of course, I had to get everyone together. How have you all been these past few years? Personally, I’ve been loving life abroad—it’s so much better than here. The air, the environnt, the food—everything seems better than back ho. You all should really go have a look soti; I’m sure you’ll fall in love with that way of life too," Jin Xin, wearing a stunning purple gown that highlighted her tall figure and fair skin, said excitedly as she glanced around the room. She had returned this ti to catch up with her childhood friends, not knowing how they had been faring after all these years.

"What can I say? I married a good husband, and my life is all about taking care of my family now. Not much to do aside from playing a bit of mahjong when I have free ti. It’s pretty leisurely."

"I really envy you for settling abroad. I wanted to go too, but my husband absolutely refuses—he gets terrible motion sickness on planes, so there’s no hope for us."

"Honestly, you’re the only one really living it up abroad. Life here in the country has definitely improved, but I’ll admit, the environnt isn’t as good. Though when it cos to food, I still prefer what’s here at ho."

...

At the table, a few of the won casually chid in, laughing as they spoke. Life abroad might seem great, but life in their holand wasn’t so bad either. Ultimately, they felt more accustod to local living. Running off overseas would be lonely—surrounded by only foreigners and no friends, it would just feel off. Of course, these were thoughts they kept to themselves, instead opting to say polite, superficial things without much substance.

Leng i sat quietly at the side, her face as cold as ever. By now, she had picked up on the undertone of Jin Xin’s words; this whole reunion seed to be nothing more than a chance for Jin Xin to show off. Leng i felt this et-up was utterly pointless—she wouldn’t have co if she’d known. Still, having already committed to being here, it wasn’t appropriate to leave halfway through. She resolved to simply sit back, observe, and refrain from comnting.

But even though Leng i had no desire to engage, Jin Xin didn’t intend to let her off the hook, deliberately drawing attention to her. "Leng i, how have you been doing all these years?"

"What do you think? I finished school and beca a teacher—I’ve been working tirelessly ever since. I can’t compare to soone like you who has the luxury of traveling the world," Leng i replied succinctly. Although she didn’t feel like talking, Jin Xin had addressed her directly, so she had to respond. Still, she kept her words brief and didn’t elaborate.

"What are you so busy with? For us won, the most important thing is to find a good husband. Let the n take care of the outside world. Look at Ma Ke—she married well and gets treated like absolute royalty. That’s the life we won should aspire to. Not to criticize, but with your looks and background, I don’t understand why you’d settle for anything less. You’re General Leng’s granddaughter, after all. I just don’t know what you were thinking." Jin Xin spoke earnestly, as though offering heartfelt advice to Leng i. She had heard about Leng i’s situation through others. While the prominent families from their circle were generally more tolerant of polygamy, with Leng i’s standing and appearance, she should have at least been the first wife, not accepted any lesser role. Of course, these bolder thoughts stayed in her mind; out loud, she rely accused Leng i of undervaluing herself.

Hearing Jin Xin’s remarks, Leng i’s face grew even colder. She suddenly noticed how much Jin Xin had changed—no longer the kind, cheerful girl she rembered from their childhood. Now, Jin Xin seed petty. Leng i felt herself losing the affection she once held for her old friend. Casually, she retorted, "Yeah, I’m with Lin Feng. What are you trying to say?"

Leng i’s tone was calm, but she clearly wanted to see where Jin Xin was going with this—raising the subject at this reunion felt pointed, as if she had so ulterior motive. Leng i was curious to see what ga Jin Xin was playing.

"All I’m saying is that we won should choose truly capable n, ones who can protect us. Power and influence an little to us. Did you know? My current boyfriend is amazing—not just any ordinary man but a true cultivator. By the way, do you all even know what a cultivator is?" Jin Xin spoke with a triumphant smile, her face brimming with pride as she ntioned her boyfriend. The re thought of him filled her with delight and satisfaction.

As soon as Jin Xin finished speaking, the other won at the table all shook their heads. They didn’t understand what she ant by "cultivator." It was their first ti hearing the term. They were curious—who were these so-called cultivators, and were they really so extraordinary?

Leng i dismissed most of Jin Xin’s earlier comnts, but when the topic shifted to cultivators, she couldn’t help but laugh. Jin Xin’s boasting struck Leng i as absurd—so what if her boyfriend was a cultivator? Leng i herself was one too. If they were talking about prowess, Lin Feng was leagues beyond, practically invincible. Finding this all so laughable, Leng i felt increasingly bored and resolved to leave. However, before she could say anything, the door swung open, and a tall, lean young man entered. Handso and looking to be around thirty, his radiant smile made him seem exceptionally warm and approachable. This was Jin Xin’s boyfriend, Lei Nan.

"Sorry to keep all you lovely ladies waiting. I ran into so trouble with parking and got delayed. My apologies," Lei Nan said with a polite smile as he addressed the group. He had accompanied his girlfriend back to the country, and making these won wait embarrassed him greatly.

"Wow, Jin Xin, your boyfriend is so handso!"

"Exactly! He could totally be a leading man in a movie!"

"Jin Xin, how is it you’re so lucky? Even abroad, you found such an amazing boyfriend!"

...

The won at the table couldn’t hide their admiration as their eyes lit up at the sight of Lei Nan. They hadn’t expected Jin Xin’s boyfriend to be so exceptional. His looks alone were enough to make anyone jealous—Jin Xin was truly fortunate to have found such a catch abroad!

Leng i glanced at Lei Nan briefly, then silently withdrew from the chatter, sitting alone. Lei Nan’s courtesy made her reluctant to leave imdiately, so she decided to bide her ti and quietly slip away when the opportunity arose. However, while Leng i had no intention of stirring up drama, Jin Xin seed eager to keep targeting her.

"Leng i, so you’ve seen my boyfriend now, right? Pretty great, isn’t he? By the way, where’s your Lin Feng? You should have him co over. Even if you two aren’t officially married yet, it wouldn’t hurt to let him show his face. Lei Nan and I will be heading back to Europe in a few days, so why not let us et him before then?" Jin Xin deliberately pressed the subject, clearly provoking Leng i. Back in their childhood, Leng i had always been cold and indifferent, and that had persisted to this day. Jin Xin was genuinely curious about the kind of man who could handle soone as frosty as Leng i.

"Forget it. He doesn’t have the ti for this," Leng i calmly replied while looking at Jin Xin. Lin Feng was always busy; there was no way he’d waste ti on such trivial matters. She wouldn’t consider dragging him here.

But to Jin Xin, Leng i’s words sounded like an excuse. In her mind, Leng i was too ashad to invite Lin Feng, fearing he couldn’t asure up to Lei Nan and that his presence would only bring embarrassnt. Thinking this, Jin Xin’s expression turned smug and self-satisfied.

anwhile, the other won at the table were less focused on the subtleties of the conversation. They were far more interested in Lei Nan, and rembering what Jin Xin had ntioned earlier, they began eagerly asking about cultivators.
