Chapter 12: He Is Still a Child
Inside the house.
Wang Hongxia was incessantly cursing.
Suddenly, she heard Ye Feng’s voice. At first, she was stunned, then overjoyed beyond measure.
Ye Feng really came back?
“A trade?”
“Are you telling the truth?”
Wang Hongxia shouted suspiciously, “Ye Feng, you’re back? Why did you suddenly change your mind?”
Ye Feng lifted the bag of food in his hand and opened it.
“Don’t worry about it!”
“This is food. See for yourself.”
“If you’re satisfied, we can make a trade.”
Through the peephole, Wang Hongxia saw the food in Ye Feng’s hand.
Bread, milk, ham… a rich variety, and in large quantities.
She swallowed hard, her eyes full of longing and greed.
Unable to resist the temptation of food, Wang Hongxia took the initiative to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Wang Hongxia’s gaze locked tightly on the food in Ye Feng’s hand.
“Ye Feng, I really thank you!”
“You truly are a good person!”
Saying this, Wang Hongxia reached out to grab.
Ye Feng looked thoughtful.
At this moment, her hostility had actually lessened somewhat…
So hostility could fluctuate!
Ye Feng stepped back a step, his eyes playful.
“Wang Hongxia, are you trying to snatch it?”
“No, I…” Wang Hongxia was a bit impatient. “You said you were going to give me food.”
“I said a trade, not to give it to you for free.”
Ye Feng paused, then continued, “Tell me, what valuable things do you have? Medicine, tools, weapons—something to exchange.”
“I… I can buy it with money. Five hundred… no, a thousand yuan for the food in your hand!” Wang Hongxia’s face twisted in pain.
“No way!” Ye Feng shook his head and refused. “At this point, money is worthless. You have to offer something real.”
Wang Hongxia’s mind raced. She said, “How about a gold bracelet? I also have a gold necklace…”
Ye Feng kept shaking his head.
“Then… what do you want? We can talk!” Wang Hongxia lowered her head slightly, playing with a lock of hair, feigning embarrassment.
“My child is here, so it’s not convenient to say… Anything can be negotiated.”
Ye Feng sized up Wang Hongxia, shook his head, and said, “You’re too ugly, and you stink of fox.”
“Also, I suddenly changed my mind. The trade is off!”
After speaking, Ye Feng turned to leave.
Wang Hongxia was stunned, not expecting such a reaction from Ye Feng.
“Ah! I don’t stink!”
“Ye Feng! You can’t leave!”
Wang Hongxia let out a piercing scream, instinctively reaching out to grab Ye Feng.
“What? Are you going to use force to snatch?” Ye Feng turned back.
---
Wang Hongxia’s eyes were filled with anxiety as she gripped Ye Feng’s arm tightly.
“Ye Feng, is the food really yours?”
“Isn’t it you who took it from someone else’s house?”
“What’s wrong with sharing some with me?”
At this moment, Ye Feng’s perception registered Wang Hongxia’s hostility intensifying, the red hue deepening…
At the same time, the little boy, Dongdong, suddenly rushed towards Ye Feng, reaching for the bag of food in his hand.
“I want to eat! Give me some food now!”
Dongdong tugged at the bag but failed to snatch it from Ye Feng.
Ye Feng looked down at the brat’s behavior. Memories of previous unpleasant encounters flooded his mind, a trace of disgust flashing in his eyes.
The brat kept struggling, making a commotion.
Ye Feng’s voice was cold: “Little brat, let go!”
The brat ignored him: “No! I won’t let go!”
Ye Feng glanced at Wang Hongxia: “Control your child, or don’t blame me for warning you!”
Seeing this, Wang Hongxia did not stop Dongdong. Instead, she joined in grabbing, encouraging him.
“Dongdong, good job! Let’s snatch it from him. I don’t believe he dares to do anything to you…”
Hearing his mother’s encouragement, Dongdong grinned proudly and even bit Ye Feng’s hand with his teeth.
“Give it to me, or I’ll bite you to death!”
The brat Dongdong’s hostility flared as a pale red.
“Interesting…” A cold gleam passed through Ye Feng’s eyes.
Dongdong opened his mouth, biting towards Ye Feng’s wrist.
Suddenly, Ye Feng exploded with force, landing a fierce punch to Dongdong’s stomach!
Bang!
Ye Feng’s strength was many times that of an ordinary person.
Even without full power, it was more than a child could endure.
“Argh!”
Dongdong let out a piercing scream, then flew in an arc through the air.
Thud!
His body slammed hard against the wall, then slid down like a dead dog, limp on the ground.
The events unfolded too quickly. Wang Hongxia was stunned.
Only when Dongdong hit the ground did she realize what had happened, letting out a harrowing scream.
“No! Dongdong!”
“My Dongdong!!”
Wang Hongxia cried as she lunged at the limp Dongdong.
Seeing this, Ye Feng felt immensely satisfied!
His disdain for Dongdong had long been ingrained.
Now, having brutally beaten the brat, he felt refreshed.
“Oh my god!”
“Dongdong… wake up!”
Wang Hongxia went mad, shaking the child nonstop.
Dongdong lay like dough, soft and motionless, without any response.
Ye Feng’s strength—let alone a child, even an adult couldn’t bear it.
The brat Dongdong had fallen unconscious.
“Ye Feng… you’re not human! Dongdong is just a child!”
“How could you lay a hand on him! Beast… beast!!”
“Scum! Trash! You’re worse than a beast—you’re a demon!”
---
Wang Hongxia wept bitterly, pointing at Ye Feng’s nose and hurling curses.
By now, her hostility had turned a deep purple-red.
Ye Feng smiled with satisfaction; he had basically figured out how to read hostility perception.
It was a color-coded scale of hatred.
Ye Feng looked at Wang Hongxia with a cold sneer.
“Oh, I’m a beast? Like mother, like son. If you don’t educate your child, someone else will.”
“Forget it. I don’t bother talking to the dead.”
Since returning here, Ye Feng had never planned to let them off.
He took out the Flame Battle Sword from his space.
The blade gleamed sharply, exuding a deadly aura!
“Beas—”
Seeing the sharp battle sword appear from thin air, Wang Hongxia’s curses abruptly stopped.
“What… what do you want to do?”
Her face turned pale, her whole body trembling as she backed away.
Ye Feng held the Flame Battle Sword, stepping closer to Wang Hongxia.
Thump! Thump!
Wang Hongxia’s scalp tingled, her body shook, and her heart felt like it would burst out.
“No! Ye Feng, don’t come near! Killing is illegal!”
Wang Hongxia stared with bloodshot eyes, trembling all over, nearly wetting herself in fear.
“I… I was wrong. Please don’t kill me…”
Ye Feng raised the battle sword.
“No!”
“Sarilang!!”
Wang Hongxia screamed in terror, her soul seemingly fleeing.
In the next moment, the blade flashed!
Ssshhh!
Wang Hongxia’s head flew off.
Blood sprayed wildly!
Her head landed on the ground.
Her body collapsed limply, twitching slightly before falling still.
Ye Feng’s expression was calm. He sheathed his sword and turned to leave.
As he turned,
a bolt of thunder suddenly crashed down, pulverizing the brat’s body into pieces!
Eradicate the roots, leaving no risk!
Ye Feng stepped out of the door. The system notification sounded.
[Notification: Event triggered!]
[Notification: Reward +10 bait!]
Ye Feng was momentarily stunned, then overjoyed.
An event triggered again!
