Beast Taming: The Empress Is Shocked After Peeking Into My Future

188 Meeting A Rival At The Banquet

Aloy stood outside the door and looked at the completely new Shen Fei.
Her eyes immediately widened as she gazed unblinkingly at him.

“You can be this handsome?” Aloy said in surprise, looking infatuated.
Aloy laughed as she looked at Shen Fei with admiration.
“You’re really good-looking!”

Shen Fei grinned.
“Thank you for the compliment.”

“Shen Fei, let’s go.” Aloy pulled his arm and left.

Shen Fei allowed her to pull him away, but he thought in his heart, ‘This girl… Don’t tell me she actually likes me?’

…

In the backyard of the mayor’s mansion, outside a luxurious pavilion, Shen Fei and Aloy walked over .

The butler walked over to them with a kind face.
He said, “Young Lady Aloy, Young Master Shen Fei, welcome back.”

“Grandpa,” Aloy called out.

“Young Master Shen Fei, welcome back.
Lord Gelin had ordered a few clothes to be prepared for you.
I hope you like them.”

Shen Fei nodded his head.
He then walked into the pavilion and sat down in the living room.
There were a few sets of clothes in the living room, each with a different style, all exuding a classical charm.

Seeing these clothes, Shen Fei did not know whether to laugh or cry.
He had to change his clothes every time he attended a banquet.
It was really tiring.

Shen Fei could not help but praise, “As expected of a rich second generation.
These clothes are quite expensive.”

Not long after, Shen Fei changed into one new set of clothes and walked out of the pavilion.
Under the lights, he looked even more handsome.

“Hmm, this style is really not bad.” Seeing this, Aloy’s eyes lit up.

“Shen Fei, come, let me take a look.
Are they pretty?” Aloy excitedly ran forward and pointed at all of Shen Fei’s new clothes.
She was as happy as a child.

“They’re pretty good.” Shen Fei smiled lightly.

“They’re nice, but the clothes are too elaborate.
A few details still need tidying up.” Aloy smiled in exasperation.

“There’s no need to go through so much trouble, I can do it myself,” Shen Fei said.
He took the wooden basin and began to wash up.

“No, you have to come with me,” Aloy said stubbornly.

Shen Fei helplessly sighed and said, “Sigh…”

Seeing Shen Fei give in, Aloy immediately laughed out loud.

The butler smiled respectfully and brought over a dish.
“Young Master Shen Fei, here are some soul dishes that Lord Gelin had the chef prepare for you.
Try them and see if they suit your taste.”

Soul dishes were made from a material called a Soul Stone.
It contained a strong soul power, which was very helpful for cultivators to increase their soul power.

“Soul dishes?” Seeing the plates on the table, Shen Fei’s eyes widened in surprise.

Aloy pouted and complained, “Wow, father is so biased! He actually gave Shen Fei such precious soul dishes!”

“Hahaha!” The butler smiled awkwardly and stepped aside.

“Shen Fei, let’s have a taste of this soul dish first.
Here!” Aloy said impatiently, picking up some food and putting it into his mouth.

The soul dish melted as soon as it entered his mouth, and a thick and boundless soul energy rushed into his mind, instantly fusing with Shen Fei’s body.

Shen Fei sucked in a breath of cold air.
He felt all the pores on his body open up, and a hot current surged through him.

“What a dense soul power!” Shen Fei was shocked.

Just this soul dish alone was enough to prove that it was a treasure.
It could even be called a divine medicine.
There was no doubt that the soul dishes were precious!

“Shen Fei, enjoy it!” Aloy chuckled and continued eating with him.
“Shen Fei, this is a soul herb.
Try it, and see if it has a soul of its own.”

Aloy handed over a crystal-clear plant that was emitting a faint blue glow.

“Soul herb?” Shen Fei received the herb and carefully observed it.
A huge spiritual wave swept over his heart.

“Wow! So this is a soul herb!” Shen Fei took a deep breath.
His heart was beating violently, filled with unconcealed excitement and agitation.

‘A soul herb! It must be a legendary spiritual herb!’

Although it was only a low first-tier spiritual herb, it was more precious and rarer than many high second-tier—and even third-tier—medicinal pills.

The effect of the soul herb was far superior to other spiritual herbs.
It was priceless and could not be bought even with money.
The soul herb had the effect of strengthening the soul.
Therefore, it was an essential item for soul realm cultivators.

“Go on, try it,” Aloy said with a smile.

“Alright, alright.” Shen Fei chuckled and started eating without holding back.

The food was delicious and had a strong soul power.
It was several times more effective than a first-tier spirit herb.
As expected of the mayor’s mansion!

At this time, an extremely sharp voice called out, “Well, well.
Isn’t this the F-class trash, Shen Fei?”

The one who spoke was a schoolmate of Shen Fei’s named Xia’er.
He was wearing a suit, and regarded Shen Fei with an arrogant look.

Hearing this voice, Shen Fei stopped eating.
He raised his brows and glanced at Xia’er, indifferently saying, “And?”

Hearing Shen Fei’s frigid words, Xia’er’s face suddenly turned dark, and his eyes filled with killing intent.
He gritted his teeth and said, “Shen Fei! You’re looking for death!”

“It’s all in your head.
I can’t be bothered with trash like you,” Shen Fei sneered.
After that, Shen Fei shook his head, ignoring Xia’er and resuming his meal.

Xia’er began to threaten him, “Shen Fei, you’d better speak politely to me, or else—”

Xia’er’s words suddenly stopped.
Because at this moment, Aloy stood up and said, “Xia’er, what do you want?”

Seeing the goddess protecting Shen Fei, Xia’er’s heart ached.

“Aloy, if Shen Fei dares to give me this attitude, I guarantee that he won’t be able to bear the consequences,” Xia’er said coldly and pushed Aloy aside.

“You…!” Aloy’s pretty face darkened.

“What do you think you’re doing, Xia’er!” Shen Fei raised his head and glared at Xia’er.

“Hmph!” Xia’er snorted.
“Shen Fei, I know you’re very strong, but why don’t you think about your status? You’re just a mere F-class trash.
I’ll show you who the real future young master of this family should be!”

“Oh?” Shen Fei’s eyes suddenly widened slightly and a dangerous glint passed over them.
“You’re nothing.
I don’t even see you as a worthy opponent.” Shen Fei shrugged his shoulders.

Hearing this, Xia’er almost blew his top.
He roared ferociously, “B*stard! You dare to look down on me?! I will defeat you today! You’re courting death!”

Xia’er roared and charged at Shen Fei.
His speed was so fast that he was almost a blur.

Whoosh! Xia’er was in front of Shen Fei in an instant.
His right leg suddenly kicked out with terrifying force.

Shen Fei placed his hands behind his back and calmly watched Xia’er’s attack.
His kick was powerful and heavy, the air whistled and shook.
He was clearly not holding back.

Swish!

At the critical moment, Shen Fei’s left arm shot out as quick as lightning and grabbed Xia’er by the ankle, pulling it up.

Crack!

Xia’er was caught off-guard and his entire right foot was dislocated.
He gritted his teeth in pain and his forehead was covered in sweat.

Xia’er’s eyes widened in shock.
“H…How can you be so strong? You’re definitely hiding your strength!”
