"What a beautiful young lady!"
"Whose daughter is this? How can she be so beautiful?"
The enthusiastic gazes and praises from the crowd made Chen Yue so shy that she couldn't lift her head.
She lowered her head, bit her lower lip, and clung tightly to Su Feng's side.
"Young Master... I... let's go back and change back..."
She hated the feeling of being the center of attention.
Su Feng, however, was somewhat gloating. "You're good at everything, except you're too insecure."
This is Chenyue's biggest problem.
"You are outstanding in every way, so why are you afraid? Stand tall and be confident."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yue's face flushed even redder, but she inexplicably felt somewhat happy.
"Young Master, is this a compliment?"
"That's not it."
Su Feng was absolutely amused by the girl in front of him.
Not only is she adorable, but her personality is also so endearing that it evokes a protective instinct in you, making you want to shield her from the wind and rain...
Sometimes, Su Feng would unconsciously be drawn to Chen Yue's amethyst-like pupils.
As they were leaving Renjia Town, they ran into Qiusheng and Wencai, who were also about to leave the town. They seemed to be in a hurry.
"Master Su!"
The two bumped into Su Feng and Chen Yue and hurriedly ran over.
"Young Master Su, so you've been here all along! We were just about to go to the banana grove to look for you!"
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?" Su Feng raised an eyebrow and asked.
Qiu Sheng took a few breaths and replied, "Uncle Mama has brought back the body of Second Master Ren. Master is waiting at the Ren residence. If Young Master Su is able, would you like to come with us?"
Clearly, they were there to deliver a message about Nintendo.
Su Feng nodded thoughtfully.
Will it really go that smoothly?
How come he remembered that in the movie plot, what was being transported back wasn't Nintendo's corpse...?
Regardless, since he had promised Ren Fa to take care of this matter, he would not abandon it.
Chen Yue, standing to the side, was also quite sensible, saying, "I can go back by myself. Young Master Su, please go ahead and get back to your work."
"Okay, then be careful on your way back."
After giving a brief instruction and watching Chen Yue leave, Su Feng hurriedly followed Qiu Shengwencai towards the Ren residence.
It's broad daylight, so there shouldn't be any problem letting Chenyue go back alone.
Moreover, Chen Yue's current cultivation level is beyond what ordinary people can easily approach.
If you run into a shameless pervert, who knows who will end up suffering the consequences?
……
Upon arriving at the Ren residence, Su Feng immediately sensed the solemn atmosphere.
White lanterns hung inside the mansion, and the air was filled with the scent of incense…
Upon entering the courtyard, Su Feng immediately understood what was going on.
An altar was set up in the courtyard, and a tall, slender middle-aged man, dressed in a Taoist robe, was performing rituals beside it.
From the man's mustache and his sharp, mean-spirited appearance, Su Feng could roughly guess that this person was Mama Di.
On the side of the altar, there was a coffin, inside which lay a corpse dressed in strange clothes, with a talisman for suppressing the corpse on its forehead.
"Young Master Su, you've arrived."
Uncle Nine was also nearby. When he saw Su Feng arrive, he quickly came over to greet him.
"The one performing the ritual at the altar is my good-for-nothing junior brother, Mama..."
He introduced it softly.
Su Feng pursed his lips and nodded.
This is no longer an atmosphere for joking or teasing.
"Second Uncle, why is your life so miserable—"
Ren Fa slowly approached the coffin, wiping away tears as he cried out in anguish.
"You've finally reached the age to enjoy life, but why is God so unfair to you? Even now, as you're about to be laid to rest, you have no children to see you off."
Seeing Ren Fa's tearful and genuine expression, everyone else in the courtyard also felt saddened.
"I never expected that Master Ren would be such a sentimental person."
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai also sniffed.
Of all the people present, it seemed that only Su Feng was the one who understood, and he was completely uninterested in Ren Fa's performance.
"Master Ren, please do not approach the coffin."
The woman who was presiding over the ritual said softly, "I am casting a spell to let Second Master Ren rest in peace."
Upon hearing this, Ren Fa hurriedly moved away from the coffin.
"Young Master Su, have you noticed anything amiss?"
At this moment, Uncle Nine whispered a question in Su Feng's ear.
Su Feng raised an eyebrow, feigning ignorance, and asked softly, "What makes you say that, Uncle Jiu?"
"The corpse lying in that coffin..." Uncle Nine crossed his arms and stared intently at the other end of the coffin. "I noticed earlier that the yellow talisman on the corpse's forehead would be blown around from time to time..."
"So I guess this Second Master Ren is either a zombie, or... a living person in disguise."
After all, while it's possible to make a living person pretend to be dead and appear completely still, the most difficult thing to control is often their breathing.
Sometimes even the slightest noise can disrupt the rhythm of breathing.
"Hehe, Uncle Jiu really has a good eye," Su Feng chuckled softly.
He had already guessed it before even entering the Ren residence.
It seems that exactly what happened in the plot did indeed occur.
"I never expected my junior brother to do something like this..." Uncle Nine said through gritted teeth, his face looking rather grim.
As a fellow disciple and his junior brother, he actually tried to take advantage of the situation and get away with it in this way!
This not only disrespects the deceased, but also humiliates the living!
Seeing that Mama was carrying out the ceremony in a very serious manner, Uncle Nine finally couldn't stand it anymore and walked out in a few steps.
"enough!"
Uncle Nine roared and immediately stopped Mama Di, who was ringing the bell. Mama Di trembled and swallowed nervously.
“Master Ren,” Uncle Jiu turned to Ren Fa and said with some difficulty, “Could you please ask the guests who came to offer their condolences to leave first?”
Ren Fa was completely bewildered, not understanding what Uncle Jiu meant by this.
But when he looked past Uncle Nine and saw Su Feng with the same serious expression, he knew that things were probably serious. So he didn't care about any formalities and quickly "invited" everyone else in the courtyard to leave.
Before long, only a few of them remained.
"Uncle Jiu, can you tell me now what happened?" Ren Fa asked cautiously.
Uncle Nine took a deep breath and immediately walked to the coffin, peeling off the talisman that was stuck to Nintendo's forehead.
The "corpse," now stripped of its last cover, lay motionless with its eyes tightly shut...
"Hey! What are you doing? Trying to sabotage me?!"
Seeing this, Mama quickly stepped forward to stop her, saying, "Even if there is any grudge between us, we have to wait until after this ritual. The dead are the most important people, you can't be unaware of that, can you?"
"Hmph! The dead?" Uncle Nine was furious and reached out to pinch the "corpse's" arm hard.
Ren Fa was startled and tried to step forward to stop him, but Su Feng stopped him.
"What's going on?" Uncle Nine was stunned. "Why is there no movement?"
He had already used a lot of force; most people would have groaned in pain long ago.
But surprisingly, this person who was pretending to be dead didn't move at all, not even twitching their eyelids.
Is it really that professional?
"Enough! For the sake of our brotherhood, give me some face and don't ruin this ceremony. If the deceased's spirits don't find peace, can you take responsibility for that?"
Mama secretly wiped away her sweat and quickly pulled Uncle Jiu away.

Chapter 130 Bio-Zombie! The Terrifying Final Form!
"I need to continue the ritual, so please don't disturb me!"
Mama took out a corpse-suppressing talisman from her sleeve again and stuck it on the "corpse's" forehead.
Before leaving, he whispered to the "corpse," "Well done, Ah Hao."
Afterwards, he returned to the altar to continue performing the ritual.
Uncle Nine returned to his original spot, looking puzzled. He couldn't understand it at all. The spot he had just pinched was the most tender part of his arm, and any normal person would have cried out in pain!
Could it be that he ate some kind of elixir or cast some kind of spell to be free from all pain?
“It seems Uncle Nine is at a loss.” Su Feng chuckled. “In that case, let me give it a try.”
Su Feng concealed his fingertips inside his sleeve, rubbing his fingers together rapidly. In the instant the spiritual energy sparked, he pointed towards the coffin.
