My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 172 - 170: A New Crisis (Part 3)
"No!" Feng Taiping suddenly stopped while he was running at high speed.
"What's wrong?" Liu Datong asked with a puzzled face, "What's not right?"
Feng Taiping slowly furrowed his brow: "We... might have been deceived..."
"Deceived? By whom?"
"Who else? It's that Gao Fei!"
"You mean..."
"Liu Datong, what would you do if someone came looking for trouble with you?" asked Feng Taiping.
"I'd slap them to death without hesitation!" Liu Datong said firmly.
"I'd do the same," Feng Taiping nodded, "But Gao Fei... didn't do that! He simply warned us a few times and then let us go. Isn't he being too kind?"
Liu Datong blinked, "You're saying... Gao Fei was bluffing us... But that doesn't make sense, he's clearly at the Eighth Layer of the Golden Core Stage." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"I once read an ancient text, there was a passage that I still vividly remember..."
"What did it say?"
"There are special methods to quickly enhance Cultivation. There are two types: the first truly improves one's Cultivation but it is time-limited and comes with side effects! The second appears to enhance Cultivation, but the true strength doesn't increase, this is what people refer to as the Blinding Method."
"Such things exist?"
"I'm now suspecting whether Gao Fei used the Blinding Method to feign his strength and intentionally scare us away."
Liu Datong nodded, "That's a possibility... but..."
"But what?" Feng Taiping inquired.
"What if we're wrong? What if Gao Fei really is a Golden Core Stage cultivator?" Liu Datong said, "These matters aren't a joke. If we guess wrong, we'll be in trouble."
Feng Taiping exhaled a heavy breath, "I'm feeling a bit confused right now, indecisive."
Liu Datong's mind was also in turmoil, similarly at a loss for ideas. In terms of intelligence, he simply couldn't compare to Feng Taiping.
"I think..." Feng Taiping said thoughtfully, "let's go back and take a look... monitor Gao Fei secretly... If he truly is a Golden Core Stage cultivator, we'll leave immediately. If Gao Fei is deceiving us, then we'll strike and eliminate him."
"Monitor him?" Liu Datong twisted his mouth, "That's very risky... If Gao Fei discovers us, we're doomed."
"If you're scared, then don't go," Feng Taiping said. "I'll go alone."
"You..."
"I won't be at ease until I clear this up."
"...Fine! I'll go with you! Even if it means death, who's afraid?!"
"That's the spirit, kid! Let's go!"
And with that, the two men turned around and headed back to Southern City.
...
Now, back to Gao Fei.
After scaring Feng Taiping and Liu Datong away, Gao Fei hurried back to his place, picked up the white stone, and quickly left, then found a hidden spot to hide.
It was truly frustrating.
Last time, he was chased by Lu Sanyang and had to jump into the sea to escape, hiding for a long time before he dared to show his face.
This time, he was hunted by Feng Taiping and Liu Datong and had to hide again, Gao Fei was almost turning into a turtle withdrawing into its shell.
"Those two guys... they shouldn't suspect me, should they..." Gao Fei muttered to himself, "They seem pretty shrewd... After giving it some thought later, they will surely harbor some doubts... Sigh..." As he said this, Gao Fei let out a sigh, "Really upsetting! Too upsetting!"
"In the end, it's all because my Cultivation is too weak! Not enough self-protection!"
"If I were a Golden Core Stage cultivator, the Yin Yang Sect wouldn't dare to provoke me!"
"Strength... In this day and age, having strength is the only guarantee!"
"Keep striving!"

He had no Spirit Stones, no inner cores, and no antiques or ancient jade either, which meant his cultivation speed would be exceedingly slow. To break through to the Golden Core Stage, he would definitely need a lot of time… His best course of action was to find a way to subjugate the white stone. Once he had it under control, he could rapidly enhance his strength.
"Come on!"
Gao Fei took out the stone from his suitcase, gently placed it on the ground, then extended his hands to rest them on the white stone, mobilizing the True Qi within his body to start eradicating the mental power attached to the white stone.
…
"Gao Fei is not at the company!"
"And he isn't at home either!"
"Has he disappeared?"
"He must be hiding."
"So, Gao Fei has been deceiving us?"
"It appears so."
"Damn it all!" Liu Datong cursed loudly: "A lifetime spent hunting geese, only to end up blinded by one! It's infuriating!"
"Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must find him!" Feng Taiping said through clenched teeth.
"Once I find Gao Fei, I swear I'll skin him alive!" Liu Datong's eyes flashed with killing intent: "And pull out his tendons!"
That very afternoon, Feng Taiping and Liu Datong trashed the Feitian Group offices and even injured many employees. What was most audacious was that after trashing Feitian Group, they didn't rush to leave, but ended up cornered by the police in the building.
Feng Taiping and Liu Datong sauntered out of the building, injuring all the surrounding police officers. The police cars parked at the entrance were smashed to pieces.
Audacious!
Truly too audacious!
The entire city's police force was mobilized, searching for Feng Taiping and Liu Datong everywhere, but even after turning Southern City upside down, they couldn't find them. The two seemed to have vanished from the human world.
…
"Dammit!"
Gao Fei gritted his teeth and cursed: "They can't find me, so they smash my company, this is outrageous!"
"What the hell!"
"They've done this twice now!"
"Do they really think I'm easy to bully?"
"Yin Yang Sect! Once I've increased my strength, I'll annihilate you!"
…
"Crack!"
A crisp sound suddenly emanated from within the white stone, akin to the noise of shattering glass.
Immediately afterward, the white stone began to emit a hazy white halo, enveloping Gao Fei's hands.
A tingling sensation spread up his arms…
"What's happening?" Gao Fei used his mental power to communicate with Xuan Jizi's soul: "Why has the white stone turned like this?"
"Congratulations! The mental power I attached to the white stone has been cleared. Now the white stone has become ownerless; you may try to subjugate it," Xuan Jizi's soul said with a slightly sour tone.
"Really?" Gao Fei's face lit up with joy: "After so many days of hard work, finally there's a payoff. Tell me quickly, how do I subdue the white stone?"
"First step, bite your finger and smear your fresh blood on the white stone, making sure to cover the entire stone without leaving any gaps."
"Cover the entire stone?" Gao Fei cringed: "That's going to need a lot of blood!"
"If you want to subdue the white stone, you must do it this way," Xuan Jizi's soul replied.
"You're not deceiving me, are you?"
"...Do you think I would dare to deceive you now?"
"You'd better not dare," Gao Fei snorted lightly: "If you dare to deceive me, I'll scatter your soul at once."
