Chapter 189: Going on a Date with Chi Lingxi
Legendary Destined Reward stolen.
Fate stolen: 5,000
Jiang Feng Fate Value: 163,500
Then...
Another reward.
[First Clear Territory Priority Token]
Jiang Feng’s eyes widened.
"Mine."
The system calculated.
Highest Exploration Contribution: ShenTian
Jiang Feng stared.
"..."
Shen Tian caught the token.
"Mine."
"YOU!"
[Ding!]
Territory Priority stolen.
Fate stolen: 4,000
Jiang Feng Fate Value: 159,500
Then...
[Unique Guild Skill Reward]
Jiang Feng immediately looked toward Shen Tian.
"That one actually belongs to the guild."
Shen Tian nodded.
"Fair."
Jiang Feng relaxed.
Then...
The system spoke.
Unique Guild Skill awarded to player with highest Leadership.
Jiang Feng smiled.
Finally.
Recipient: FallenWind
He laughed.
"YES!"
LittleMaple cheered.
MoonPetal applauded.
Shen Tian smiled.
Jiang Feng opened it.
[Guild Skill: Unbroken Formation]
When guild members fight together, defensive and offensive attributes increase based on nearby guild allies.
Jiang Feng stared.
"That’s incredible."
Shen Tian nodded.
"Good skill."
Xu Ning appeared.
[Associated Fate: 3,000.]
Shen Tian shrugged.
Let him have it.
[Generous.]
He needs something.
Jiang Feng heard nothing.
He simply looked toward Shen Tian.
"You didn’t somehow steal this?"
"No."
"Thank God."
Shen Tian laughed.
Then...
The final reward appeared.
[Hidden Reward: King’s Authority]
Xu Ning froze.
Shen Tian’s eyes narrowed.
Jiang Feng looked confused.
"What is that?"
King Aeron raised his hand.
A golden crown appeared.
Not physical.
Energy.
It moved toward Jiang Feng.
Xu Ning shouted.
[HOST.]
What?!
[That’s the real inheritance!]
The Fate surrounding Jiang Feng exploded.
[King’s Authority]
Unique Passive
Guild members under your command gain increased morale, experience, and resistance to crowd-control effects.
Unlocks future Kingdom Establishment path.
Associated Fate Value: 12,000
Shen Tian stared.
Twelve thousand.
This...
Was huge.
And it was moving directly toward Jiang Feng.
Shen Tian’s eyes narrowed.
Can I take it?
[Your compatibility was zero.]
Was.
Xu Ning stared.
[Host...]
Shen Tian looked at King Aeron.
Then...
At the Dragonfall Bow.
An idea formed.
He equipped the bow.
Draconic energy filled the room.
King Aeron’s spirit turned.
His eyes widened.
"...Vharos."
Shen Tian smiled.
There.
A hidden condition.
The dragon’s weapon contained part of Vharos’ authority.
Shen Tian stepped forward.
King Aeron stared.
"You carry the final will of my companion."
The inheritance stopped.
Jiang Feng blinked.
"...Shen?"
Shen Tian didn’t answer.
The crown split.
Half continued toward Jiang Feng.
Half...
Moved toward Shen Tian.
Xu Ning’s mouth opened.
[You...]
Shen Tian smiled.
Golden energy entered him.
[Hidden Condition Triggered!]
[King’s Authority divided.]
[FallenWind receives Commander’s Authority.]
[ShenTian receives Dragon King’s Authority.]
Jiang Feng stared.
Then slowly looked toward Shen Tian.
"..."
Shen Tian smiled awkwardly.
"Oops."
"YOU DID THAT ON PURPOSE!"
"Maybe."
LittleMaple pointed.
"THIEF!"
MoonPetal laughed uncontrollably.
Xu Ning’s system appeared.
[Ding!]
Major Destiny inheritance altered.
Fate stolen: 6,000
Jiang Feng Current Fate Value: 153,500
In one dungeon...
Jiang Feng had lost...
19,500 Fate.
But...
He still had his guild.
His Leadership title.
His unique guild skill.
And half the King’s inheritance.
Shen Tian had taken everything he wanted...
Without destroying the protagonist’s path.
Xu Ning stared.
[Host.]
Hm?
[You are terrifyingly efficient.]
Shen Tian smiled.
Thank you.
[That wasn’t a compliment.]
Still taking it.
They returned to Silverbrook.
Jiang Feng didn’t wait.
He went directly to the Guild Administration Hall.
LittleMaple practically dragged him there.
MoonPetal followed.
Shen Tian came too.
The Guild Foundation Stone floated above the registration altar.
An NPC administrator looked toward Jiang Feng.
"Name your organization."
Jiang Feng became silent.
He’d already thought about it.
For days.
A name representing starting again.
Movement.
Opportunity.
A sudden change that could turn everything around.
He smiled.
"Windfall."
The stone illuminated.
[Confirm Guild Name: WINDFALL?]
Jiang Feng selected...
YES.
WOOOOOOM!
Golden light erupted above Silverbrook.
A regional announcement appeared.
[REGIONAL ANNOUNCEMENT!]
Player FallenWind has established the guild WINDFALL!
Congratulations to Silverbrook’s newest player organization!
LittleMaple screamed.
"WE DID IT!"
Jiang Feng laughed.
MoonPetal applauded.
Shen Tian smiled.
Then...
A guild invitation appeared before LittleMaple.
[FallenWind invites you to Windfall.]
She accepted instantly.
[Windfall Member #2: LittleMaple]
MoonPetal received one.
She looked at it.
Then...
Toward Shen Tian.
Jiang Feng noticed.
He already knew.
MoonPetal smiled apologetically.
"I..."
Jiang Feng laughed.
"You don’t have to."
She blinked.
"Really?"
"Really."
He looked toward Shen Tian.
"She’s probably joining whatever guild this idiot makes."
Shen Tian raised an eyebrow.
"Idiot?"
MoonPetal’s face reddened.
"I didn’t say that!"
LittleMaple smiled.
"You were thinking it."
"MAPLE!"
Jiang Feng laughed.
Then...
He extended his hand toward Shen Tian.
"Competition starts now."
Shen Tian shook it.
"Looking forward to it."
Windfall had officially been born.
And despite everything Shen Tian had stolen...
Jiang Feng looked genuinely happy.
Several hours later...
Shen Tian logged out.
His capsule opened.
He sat up.
Then...
His phone vibrated.
A message.
Chi Lingxi ❤️
Shen Tian opened it.
Chi Lingxi: Are you busy today?
He smiled.
Then remembered.
They were dating now.
Officially.
And...
He hadn’t actually taken her anywhere yet.
That felt wrong.
Shen Tian replied.
Shen Tian: Not anymore.
Three dots appeared immediately.
Chi Lingxi: Really?
Shen Tian: Yeah.
He thought.
Then typed.
Shen Tian: Want to go out?
The typing indicator appeared.
Disappeared.
Appeared.
Disappeared.
Then...
Chi Lingxi: Like... a date?
Shen Tian smiled.
Shen Tian: Yes.
Nothing.
Ten seconds.
Twenty.
Thirty.
Shen Tian raised an eyebrow.
Then...
His phone rang.
Chi Lingxi.
He answered.
"Hello?"
"YOU MEAN TODAY?!"
Shen Tian pulled the phone away slightly.
"...Yes?"
"I’M NOT READY!"
He laughed.
"You asked if I was busy."
"I DIDN’T EXPECT YOU TO ASK ME OUT!"
"You’re my girlfriend."
Silence.
Then...
Much quieter...
"I know."
Shen Tian smiled.
"Give me an hour."
"One hour?!"
"Two?"
"Three!"
"Two."
"Two and a half."
"Deal."
The call ended.
Shen Tian stared.
Then laughed.
Xu Ning appeared.
[Host.]
"What?"
[First official date.]
"Apparently."
[MoonPetal Saturday.]
"..."
Xu Ning smiled.
Shen Tian pointed.
"Don’t ruin this."
[I said nothing.]
"Your face did."
Two and a half hours later...
Shen Tian arrived outside the sidewalk restaurant.
Not in a supercar.
He’d considered it.
Then decided against it.
