My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 132 - 131: Obtaining a Treasure

In the dark, underground space.

Two men huddled by a campfire, one eating grilled meat and the other drinking beer, both carefree and content. These two men were Gao Fei and Xia Tao.

"Mr. Gao, I really can't thank you enough this time," Xia Tao said with genuine gratitude.

"It's a trifle, not worth mentioning," Gao Fei replied with a wave of his hand.

"It may be trivial for you, but for me, it's like a gigantic hole torn through the heavens," Xia Tao said. "Mr. Gao, I still hope you will consider joining the special department. I can offer you a very high position..."

"Let's drop the subject," Gao Fei interrupted, shaking his head. "I will not join the special department."

"Mr. Gao..." Xia Tao began to speak but Gao Fei cut him off.

Gao Fei added some firewood to the flames and then took a swig from the beer bottle, "Although I won't join the special department, I will still help you. For example, this time you mentioned you were in trouble, and I came to help immediately."

"Will it be the same in the future?" Xia Tao asked.

"Yes, it will be the same in the future, of course, as long as it's not about doing anything unethical or inhumane."

"Mr. Gao, continuing like this is not a solution," Xia Tao said. "It seems that the wolf-headed monster can't be killed in the short term."

"So what do you suggest we do?" Gao Fei asked, taking a bite of chicken and chewing slowly.

After pondering for a moment, Xia Tao said, "If we really can't handle it, we should send the wolf-headed monster to another planet. That way, we can rid ourselves of this trouble and won't have to worry about it anymore."

"Alright," Gao Fei nodded in agreement to Xia Tao's proposal. "You take care of the arrangements." The wolf-headed monster was indeed terrifying, and too dangerous to keep on Earth.

"No time to delay, I'll contact the space agency right now to have them arrange a spaceship as soon as possible," said Xia Tao, who was always in a hurry. Having made a decision, he wanted to act immediately, unwilling to delay even a minute. He stood up and left in a rush.

After Xia Tao's departure, Gao Fei continued to eat and drink alone. He had a huge appetite. He ate more than a dozen chicken legs and wings and drank over a dozen bottles of beer, yet he wasn't satisfied.

"...I concede..." A hoarse and unpleasant voice came from the side, weak, trembling, and anxious. The owner of the voice was the wolf-headed monster.

"Hm?" Gao Fei turned his head. "What did you say?"

"I said... I concede... I submit to you…" the wolf-headed monster said with difficulty, "please, let me go."

"Have I heard wrong?" Gao Fei laughed. "You're pleading with me? Weren't you rampant, arrogant, and overbearing? How come you are begging me now?"

"Stop mocking me... I'm truly afraid of you…" the wolf-headed monster said, "Although I am immortal, I can't endure being tortured like this... I'm about to break down..." Over a thousand years ago, he had been attacked and tormented by cultivators but never yielded. However, now he had given in.

It wasn't that he had become cowardly, but rather Gao Fei was too shameless, too despicable, and too unscrupulous. He had had enough and couldn't take it anymore. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"If only you had known this earlier, why bother in the first place?" Gao Fei hummed, "If you hadn't caused trouble in Huaxia, you wouldn't have been captured, and now you wouldn't have to endure this torment. You brought this upon yourself."

"I came to Huaxia as if on a tour, with no ill intent!" the wolf-headed monster gasped, "It was those cultivators who would not let me be. From the moment I entered Huaxia, they besieged and pursued me, and eventually, they used despicable means to capture me. Unable to kill me, they confined me here and tortured me with a formation. It's despicable! I hate it so much!"

"The world is so vast, why did you come to Huaxia to tour?" Gao Fei scoffed, "If you had gone to another country or stayed quietly in your den, you wouldn't have ended up like this."

"Yes, I do regret it. If I had to choose again, I would definitely not set foot in Huaxia ever," the wolf-headed monster stated, "I absolutely despise this country."

"Where did those cultivators who besieged you go?" Gao Fei inquired.

"I don't know," the wolf-headed monster shook its head, "They disappeared a long time ago, probably dead." The monster paused for a moment, "I heard their conversation; they seemed to be heading somewhere... At that time, their expressions were very solemn..."

"Heading somewhere? Where?" Gao Fei pressed.

"I don't know that," the wolf-headed monster shook its head again.

Gao Fei fell into deep thought. Where did those cultivators go? What exactly had happened back then? How many secrets were hidden in this affair?

"Let me go, I swear, I will not seek revenge against you, and I will not harm the people of Huaxia. I will return to the West, never to step foot in Huaxia again," the wolf-headed monster pronounced each word earnestly.

"Do you think I would believe you?" Gao Fei snorted lightly.

"Every word I've said is true, I'm really not lying to you..."

"Enough, shut up. Even if you made a hole in the sky, I wouldn't believe you."

"You..."

"In a few days, I'll send you to another planet, hmm, let's choose Mars. You can live there, and if you can't stand the loneliness and isolation, just kill yourself. For a monster like you, living is just a waste." After saying this, Gao Fei turned his head away, continuing to enjoy his grilled meat and beer, paying no further attention to the wolf-headed monster.

"You can't do this!"

"You're really too cunning!"

"I haven't offended you, why are you making things difficult for me!"

...

The wolf-headed monster roared in anger, its cries filled with fury, but unfortunately, Gao Fei simply ignored it. In the end... the wolf-headed monster deflated, and its mental defenses completely collapsed: "I can help you enhance your strength!"

"Huh?" This time Gao Fei reacted, turning his head: "What did you just say?"

"I said I can help you enhance your strength! A substantial increase in strength! Really, I'm not lying to you!" The wolf-headed monster's expression was very sincere.

"Tell me, how are you going to help me enhance my strength?" Gao Fei asked with interest.

Seeing Gao Fei interested, the wolf-headed monster breathed a sigh of relief. He finally had a chance to negotiate: "I'll tell you how, but you have to promise to let me go."

"Start talking, and if your method really works, I'll consider letting you go," Gao Fei said indifferently.

"Will you keep your word?"

"Of course, I will!"

"Alright then, listen carefully. Inside my body, there is an inner core, which I cultivated over a thousand years. It contains a very immense power. As long as you absorb and refine the power of the inner core, your strength will surge dramatically."

"Inner core?" Gao Fei narrowed his eyes: "You have an inner core?"

"Yes, and it's a large one."

"Take it out and let me see."

"Gurgle..." The wolf-headed monster opened its mouth and spat out a silver-white bead, the size of an adult's fist, smooth and round, radiating an aura that made one's heart palpitate: "This is my inner core."

"Oh, it looks good." Gao Fei's eyes lit up: "Didn't expect you to have such a treasure inside you, hand it over quickly." Gao Fei stood up and strode towards the wolf-headed monster.

"Stop!" the wolf-headed monster shouted.

Gao Fei stopped: "What's wrong? Having second thoughts?"

"I'm worried that you'll go back on your word," the wolf-headed monster said: "Swear an oath, a poisonous oath. I give you the inner core, and you let me go."

"Fine, I'll swear," Gao Fei raised his hand and took a poisonous oath: "Happy now? As a Cultivator, what matters to me is the mental state. If I break my oath, I'll have flaws in my mindset, and I'll encounter many hazards while Cultivating Immortality. I wouldn't joke about my own future."

"Good that you understand... Here's the inner core... for you..." The wolf-headed monster looked at the inner core unwillingly one last time, then blew on it forcefully, and the inner core floated over to Gao Fei. Without the inner core, his body would suffer many concealed injuries, and his cultivation and strength would decline significantly.

Giving away the inner core had many downsides, but to escape this trap and regain his freedom, he had no choice but to sacrifice it, a reluctant decision.

Having made his decision, once free, the wolf-headed monster planned to find a secluded spot to hide, heal his injuries and once his strength was restored, he would seek revenge against Gao Fei. He wanted to tear Gao Fei to pieces and crush his bones to dust! Not only that, but he'd also kill every member of Gao Fei's family.

"What a treasure, truly a fine thing," Gao Fei held the inner core in his hands, his face filled with excitement: "With this inner core, I can enter the Inedia Stage, haha... Fortune really favors me." It was indeed right to have dealt with the wolf-headed monster this time.

"I've given you the inner core, can you keep your promise now?" the wolf-headed monster said.

"Promise? What promise?"

"You! You're planning to cheat! You just took a poisonous oath..."

"Look how panicked you are, I was just joking with you." Gao Fei pocketed the inner core, then looked at the wolf-headed monster with a smile: "Since I've sworn an oath, I intend to keep it. I don't want to court trouble."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let me go at once," the wolf-headed monster urged.

"As of now, I'm going to stop interfering in your affairs. As for how others might treat you, that's none of my business."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Didn't understand? Your IQ is really something. Alright, I'll explain. I'll let you go, but whether my friends will let you go, that's out of my hands."

"You..."

"That's it then, I'm off. Goodbye, no, no, no, it's best we never see each other again." With these words, Gao Fei cheerfully left.

"Bastard! You bastard! You will not die a good death!!!" The wolf-headed monster realized it had been fooled, treated like an idiot, its precious inner core given away for nothing in exchange for freedom, almost died from anger.

...

After coming out of the cave, Gao Fei took out his phone and called Xia Tao: "Old Xia, where are you... I have to leave for a bit urgently, the wolf-headed monster is left to you to deal with... Don't worry, he's very weak now, with no power to resist at all... How's the contact with the spaceship going... It's going smoothly?

That's good, send the wolf-headed monster away quickly, so we can rest easy... Alright, that's it. Call me if anything happens..." After giving a few instructions, Gao Fei hung up the phone, then humming a tune, he walked away with a jaunty step.
