"Okay, I'll go right now."
Upon hearing this, Red Ghost nodded slightly, her indifferent gaze unintentionally sweeping over everyone, resting mostly on Feng Yi himself—he was the man known as the Revenge Shadow Rider, a legend who had truly experienced countless battles. Even with Red Ghost's usually unflappable nature, her heart stirred up a tempest in that moment...
Aside from Kevin, everyone knew that Feng Yi was actually the Revenge Shadow Rider, whose Mecha had been modified by Reyna back in the day.
Seemingly sensing something, Feng Yi also looked towards Red Ghost at the same time...
This was awkward. Red Ghost quickly averted her gaze, scoffing coldly before lightly flicking her hair and going to wash her hands. At the very least, she wouldn't lose to this man in terms of presence.
"Xixi," Red Ghost is acting so strange today," Xixi covered her mouth as if she noticed something, and after speaking, she ran off to the kitchen to fetch a chair for Red Ghost.
Xiu Yi was incredibly excited, his expression plainly visible on his face, as he constantly referred to Brother Feng, leaving Kevin utterly astounded... He couldn't believe this annoying kid admired this guy named Feng Yi so much.
Only the carefree uncle was calm and composed, his words laden with reflections on life, "Young people, having never seen the outside world, do not know how vast it is—people should live honestly. Xiu Yi, that rascal, keeps shouting about wanting to go out and explore. What do you think about that?"
Reyna turned the conversation to Feng Yi, but Feng Yi preferred to call Reyna 'Uncle Tuolei', "Hehe, we can restrict a child's steps, but we cannot cage their hearts."
Reyna smiled helplessly, "Even you say so."
"Look at that, Brother Feng is even supporting us going out on adventures." Red Ghost and Xixi had just entered the room when they heard Xiu Yi say this.
"Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking. Though, having said that, you are already an adult too. I don't restrain the ambitions of adults, but remember the outside world is not like home, and while exploring, don't forget to control your conduct, maintaining calm judgment at all times."
Reyna's words were directed at Xiu Yi, but also intended for Red Ghost, Xixi, and even Kevin to hear.
"Brother Feng, is the outside world really that complicated? I think it must also be very exciting," said Xiu Yi.
"Sort of, the world isn't large, and when you say it's complicated, it's actually quite simple and straightforward. When you strip away its superficial appearance, you find there aren't many differences between people. What's truly valuable is the experience gained—If you pursue your dreams, face hardships, and fall flat, even forgetting why you started, that precisely is your season of harvest."
Mulling over Feng Yi's words, Xiu Yi and Kevin, although not fully understanding, left Red Ghost and Xixi deep in thought...
As soon as Feng Yi finished speaking, Reyna pushed an open bottle of white spirits towards Xiu Yi. Quite uncharacteristically for the usually strict uncle, he even allowed him to drink, and it all seemed so natural.
"When exploring outside, you'll inevitably have to interact with others; Xiu Yi, remember your Brother Feng Yi's words well."
"I will."
Xiu Yi nodded gravely, his naive eyes suddenly blazing with a mix of courage and dreams. Without a second glance, he picked up the jug and took a big swig.
This was 70-degree proof liquor, and probably, besides Reyna and Feng Yi, no one at the table could handle that much, not even Feng Yi, who widened his eyes in surprise.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Xiu Yi quickly set down the jug, turned his head, and then began to cough continuously, causing everyone at the table to burst into laughter...
Kevin was speechless, having thought the kid was brave, but it turned out he was just a fool.
Xiu Yi regretted it deeply, thinking he had completely embarrassed himself in front of Brother Feng today. He had never drunk white spirits before and thought it would feel like drinking beer. Little did he know, once he took a sip, the potency was so intense that the burning sensation made his throat incredibly uncomfortable.
"Kevin, why didn't you stop me? You did that on purpose, didn't you?"
The group burst into laughter again, and Xiu Yi laughed along as well.
Feng Yi shrugged nonchalantly, "Being young is great, Xiu Yi. This is a lesson in recklessness, and consider it your first lesson."
"Understood." Xiu Yi struck an exaggeratedly solemn pose, "But Brother Feng, our daytime performance must be acceptable, right?"
"Barely passable, 60 points, I guess."
"What? Only 60 points."
Xiu Yi looked completely dismayed, as were Red Ghost, Xixi, and Kevin, who were also shocked. They had outperformed against the Long-tailed Beast, and yet in the eyes of their handsome big brother, it was barely a pass.
"I saw everyone's real-time performance during the day. You all did not do badly, considering your teammates during crises and making correct judgments through actions—but having courage alone is far from enough. Utilizing terrain, observing weaknesses, conservative probing, and professional qualities are all essential skills for an exploration team. In battle, we must not only seek more living space but also accumulate a wealth of knowledge along the way to enhance ourselves. Through hard work, I believe you will soon catch up with me, even surpass me."
Indeed, different from himself, this was a vibrant team that shared burdens among companions. No matter what difficulties or dangers they encountered, Feng Yi believed they would overcome them with joint efforts—and he also believed that this time would not be too far off...
