Chapter 0667: Following the Wrong Person

Just like Huang Fei’s reaction at that time, Huang Yi bit her own arm hard.
A delicate scream came from inside the room.
“It hurts so much! It’s unbearable!”
If the people in the hotel heard this, those unaware might start speculating wildly! Fortunately, Huang Long had already separated her room with a small array.
Standing inside the room, Huang Yi felt the searing pain in her arm and then realized what was happening. Her eyes widened in shock: “This… this is real!” She then looked around the room, kicked a table nearby—still painful!
If she had been skeptical before, what about now?!
Huang Yi’s breathing became rapid. She clenched her small fist and punched a piece of iron in the room with all her strength. In an instant, the iron shattered into countless pieces.
In the past, with her strength at the mid-level of Grade 7, she could at most knock the iron away but not destroy it, let alone turn it into fragments!
“Am I… am I a powerhouse of the Divine Realm?!”
“Am I really a powerhouse of the Divine Realm?!”
“It seems I really am a powerhouse of the Divine Realm!”
Huang Yi repeated these words in a dazed state, filled with excitement and speechlessness. Eventually, tears welled up in her eyes, streaming down her face.
Anyone who suddenly went from mid-level Grade 7 to a powerhouse of the Divine Realm would react similarly to Huang Yi.
It was even more joyful and exhilarating than a pauper suddenly possessing billions in wealth!
It took over an hour for Huang Yi to calm down from her excitement, disbelief, and speechlessness. Only after that did she return to a normal state.
Once back to normal, she remembered that the pill was given to her by her father, that it was given to her father by Brother Huang, that Huang Long had once said it was a divine pill, and that her father had repeatedly emphasized it was a divine pill!
“It’s a divine pill… really!” Huang Yi swallowed hard and whispered to herself. She still seemed to remember the wonderful fragrance in her mouth when she swallowed it.
“If it’s a divine pill, then what is Brother Huang’s identity?!” Her eyes widened, her breathing quickened, and her nose flared.
She didn’t dare to think further!
It was then that she understood why her father’s attitude toward Brother Huang had changed so much these past few days!
“So, Father already knew!” Huang Yi thought to herself, feeling a hint of sadness. After realizing Huang Long’s true identity, she suddenly felt as if he was moving further away, his image in her heart becoming increasingly vague.

This is the gap between our statuses!
Huang Yi understood that it was utterly unrealistic for the two of them to be together, and her heart was filled with bitterness.
At that moment, the door was knocked again, and Huang Fei’s voice came through: “Yi’er, have you gotten up?” It turned out that a night had passed, and it was already daylight.
For a long time, there was no response.
Worried, Huang Fei was about to push the door open when it swung open, and Huang Yi stood before him.
“Yi’er, you?” Huang Fei was about to speak when suddenly, Huang Yi rushed at him, hugging him tightly, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed uncontrollably, leaving Huang Fei confused and unsure what was going on.
“Yi’er, what’s wrong? Did someone bully you?” Huang Fei asked anxiously, his face full of concern.
Huang Yi only shook her head without saying a word, which made Huang Fei even more panicked.
“Father, you already knew Brother Huang’s true identity, right?” Huang Yi suddenly spoke up.
Huang Fei was stunned; he hadn’t expected his daughter to ask such a question. Could it be…?
“Yi’er, you know?” Huang Fei asked in surprise.
Huang Yi nodded.
Seeing her nod in confirmation, an idea flashed through Huang Fei’s mind—had his daughter swallowed that divine pill? Only that could explain how she might know.
As if sensing Huang Fei’s thoughts, Huang Yi nodded again and said, “I swallowed that pill.”
Sure enough! His suspicion was confirmed.
“Then, Yi’er, what about your strength now?!” Suddenly, Huang Fei thought of an important question. He tried to use his spiritual sense to detect his daughter’s strength, but found that he couldn’t sense it at all.
Unable to sense it?!
“Yi’er, you?!” Huang Fei pointed at her in disbelief.
“Father, I’ve now reached the Divine Realm!” Huang Yi nodded, her expression complex.
Although Huang Fei had anticipated this, he still gasped upon hearing it—a single divine pill had turned a mid-level seventh-tier warrior into a powerhouse of the Divine Realm overnight!
That pill was truly terrifying!
Huang Fei was stunned for a long time. After a while, he burst into laughter: “Great! Finally, the Huang family of Qingfeng Town has produced a powerhouse at the early stage of the Divine Realm!” Though he had missed the chance to become such a powerhouse himself, his daughter achieving it made him even happier.
After all, the previous head of the Huang family, Huang Feng, was only a peak warrior at the early stage of the Divine Realm—the only one in the entire family!
But upon hearing this, Huang Yi’s expression turned strange. She said, “Father, I’m not at the early stage of the Divine Realm—I’m at the mid-stage!”

As Huang Yi’s voice faded, Huang Fei’s laughter suddenly stopped. His eyes widened in shock: “Mid-stage Divine Realm?!?” A thought flashed through his mind—wasn’t that even stronger than the previous family head, Huang Feng?!

But then, Huang Yi’s voice rang out again: “Actually, I should be at the peak of mid-stage Divine Realm!”

Peak of mid-stage Divine Realm!

Huang Fei’s mind couldn’t process this. After a long while, his voice, mixed with crying and laughing, sounded like that of a madman.

Huang Yi understood her father’s excitement and didn’t try to stop him. However, to avoid disturbing other guests in the hotel, she isolated the surrounding space. As a powerful being in the Divine Realm, she had the ability to do so.

A moment later, a cough made the two turn around.

“Huang, Brother Huang!”

“Huang, Senior Huang Long!”

They exclaimed in unison. It was indeed Huang Long!

Huang Long was smiling at them. Seeing his expression, Huang Yi suddenly lowered her head, fiddling with the hem of her clothes. At this moment, she was no longer a peak-level mid-stage Divine Realm warrior but just a girl.

As for Huang Fei, he was grateful yet awkward, not knowing how to thank Huang Long. For them father and daughter, Huang Long was like a second father—him at the peak of the Sacred Realm and her in the Divine Realm. They knew they could never repay such kindness.

“Tomorrow is the Huang family assembly. I want to go out for a walk. How about you two?” Huang Long asked.

Of course, they had no reason to refuse. Even if Huang Long hadn’t suggested it, they had planned to go out soon anyway.

So, Huang Fei informed the senior attendants in Qingfeng Town, and the three of them left the hotel to explore Dragon City.

Due to Huang Long’s status, they were initially a bit reserved around him, but gradually they became more relaxed.

As they wandered, they came to a quiet alley. Huang Fei understood Huang Long’s intention. He turned around and sneered at the person behind him, “You treacherous wretch! You’ve followed us for so long—still not coming out?”

As soon as Huang Fei spoke, a sinister cackling sound arose. Then, a dozen figures appeared before them. But the leader wasn’t the treacherous wretch; it was a thin old man with half black and half white hair. The treacherous wretch stood respectfully beside him.

Seeing this old man, Huang Fei’s expression changed slightly before returning to normal. He said, “Elder Three, Long Gong!”

The person who came was Long Gong, the third eldest of the Dragon God Family. Huang Fei knew this third eldest, Long Gong—he had met him at the first three family assemblies. He was a powerful warrior at the peak of the mid-stage Sacred Realm and also served as an enforcement elder of the Dragon God Family.

However, Long Gong’s arrival made Huang Fei’s heart sink. Although the Young Master of the Dragon God Family acted recklessly, that was only relative. He still couldn’t command the family’s elders, let alone Long Gong, who was an enforcement elder. There was only one reason for this: he must have been sent by the family head, Huang Heng.

Huang Heng must have sent him after learning that the Young Master’s strength had suddenly surged, and Huang Heng had become greedy.

“Dare you, a mere administrator of Qingfeng Town, not kneel and pay respects to Elder Long Gong?!” A family guard behind Long Gong shouted angrily at Huang Fei.

In the past, Huang Fei would have been terrified, but now he simply stared at the guard coldly, unshaken. This was the difference brought about by a change in status and strength.

Seeing Huang Fei’s reaction, Long Gong narrowed his eyes. Before coming here, the family head, Huang Heng, had told him that Huang Fei’s strength had suddenly increased for some reason and that he should take him to the family’s execution hall for thorough interrogation. It seemed what the family head said was true. But he thought Huang Fei would become arrogant just because his strength had improved a bit and think he didn’t need to show respect?

A cold glint appeared in Long Gong’s eyes.

Seeing that Huang Fei still stood there unshaken, the family guard became furious. He leaped forward and threw a punch at Huang Fei.

The family guards Long Gong brought were all executors from the execution hall, all at level nine, with the one who attacked being at the late stage of level nine.

Standing there, Long Gong smirked at Huang Fei, eager to see if he had truly reached the Sacred Realm.

But as soon as he thought this, a figure flashed by, and the family guard was sent flying backward.

There was a muffled thud, and the ground trembled slightly.

Looking at the family guard who had landed right at his feet, Long Gong’s expression darkened. It was clear Huang Fei was trying to intimidate him, but he hadn’t expected Huang Fei to actually dare to seriously injure a member of the family’s execution hall.

The envious wolf saw Huang Fei land a punch that seriously injured a member of the Dragon God Family’s execution hall. Instead of being shocked, he was secretly delighted. This Huang Fei was doomed!

Did he really think he could resist the entire Dragon God Family on his own?!

“Good!” Long Gong smiled instead of getting angry, his gaze turning cold as he scanned the three Huang Longs. “All these years, no one has dared to seriously hurt a member of the Farming Fertilizer Clan’s Execution Hall. Huang Fei, right? You’re the first!” It had been over thirty years since Long Gong took charge of the Execution Hall, and this was the first time he encountered such a situation. “Kid, you’re unlucky. When you die later, blame yourself for being blind and following the wrong person!” With that, Long Gong turned to look at Huang Long, smiling coldly. His murderous intent flared—turns out he had mistaken Huang Long for one of Huang Fei’s subordinates!
