Chapter 106: Chapter 53: The Beginning of Spirit Furnace Providential Selection_1 Chapter 106: Chapter 53: The Beginning of Spirit Furnace Providential Selection_1 In front of Long Kongkong was a pile of shrimp shells, and he didn’t eat many. His judgment was correct, Hep Benn really seemed to love this dish, her red lips covered with red oily sauce, looking alluring.

“Is it good? Should we come back next time?” Long Kongkong said with a big smile.

“Who said I will come with you? Go and wash your hands. It’s late, and I’m going home.” Hep Benn wiped her mouth with a napkin.

“Alright.”

After washing his hands, Long Kongkong came back to pay. The waiter told him that the bill had already been paid.

“Goddess, this is not fair. Girls shouldn’t pay when going out to eat.” Long Kongkong looked helpless.

Hep Benn said indifferently, “You were already working to afford school, and most of the food was eaten by me. Don’t forget, I am your boss. Can a boss let his employee pay? Let’s go.”

As she said this, she began to walk out.

“You should go home early.” Standing at the doorway, Hep Benn said to Long Kongkong.

Long Kongkong suddenly looked righteous, “It’s already so late. I will definitely take you home. It’s a man’s duty.”

“Aren’t you a kid? Didn’t you say that yourself?” Hep Benn looked at him with a playful smile.

Long Kongkong chuckled, “A boy should also protect his girl, right? What do you say, goddess boss?”

“You and your sweet talk!” Hep Benn walked in a certain direction, and Long Kongkong quickly followed.

At this time, there were fewer people on the street, and the silence seemed more apparent. The shadows of the two were stretched long and then short by the magical lanterns along the road, sometimes overlapped.

Hep Benn’s house was not far away, it was about a twenty-minute walk. It was a small courtyard in an alleyway that didn’t look big.

“Okay, I’m home.” Hep Benn stopped walking and spoke softly.

“Alright, goddess, you should go get some rest!” Long Kongkong waved at her with a smile, but he stood still.

“Mhm, you can go now.” Hep Benn turned to open the door. Long Kongkong, who usually had a glib tongue, was unusually quiet on the trip back home.

After she entered the door and looked back, he was still standing there, unmoving.

“Why haven’t you left yet?” Hep Benn poked her head out.

Long Kongkong said with a smile, “I was just thinking if there’s a surprise.”

Hep Benn asked, puzzled, “What surprise?”

Long Kongkong spoke in a low tone with a mysteriously look, “Like a goodbye hug or something.”

“In your dreams!” Hep Benn scolded and quickly shut the courtyard door.

“Goddess boss.” A soft call came from outside.

Hep Benn didn’t open the door again, and asked through the closed gate, “What?”

“See you tomorrow.” The voice of Long Kongkong came.

Hep Benn was stunned for a moment, then a strong smile spread across her face, “See you tomorrow.”

Wonderful weekends always go by quickly. Well, it was especially wonderful for Long Kongkong.

When the two brothers met again in the school dormitory, Long Dangdang looked pale as if he had been seriously ill, even his eyes seemed duller than usual, only his spirit seemed decent.

The weekend was agonizing for Long Dangdang, spent in constant sacrifice. Even though there was a powerful priest to heal and restore him, the cultivation of sacrificing the burning of own essence was still extremely painful. The greatest gain was that Hai Jifeng taught him a way to transform spiritual power into liquid, he planned to give it a try this week. To see if he could evolve to the 5th rank before the spirit furnace providential selection ritual started.

According to Teacher Zi Tianwu, this seemed to be the best way to evolve liquid spiritual power.

Contrarily, Long Kongkong was in high spirits, he seemed much vibrant and happy. His smile never faded.

“What did you do this weekend?” Long Dangdang looked puzzled at his little brother.

“Brother, do you know? I asked the goddess out for dinner. We ate spicy shrimp!” Long Kongkong said proudly.

“That’s it?” Long Dangdang said speechlessly.

“Of course not, I also peeled shrimps for her to eat, she ate them all, they were very tasty. Don’t you think we’re getting closer?” Long Kongkong declared confidently.

Long Dangdang sneered, “Not really, I just feel like a ‘yes-man’ is appearing.”

“Long Dangdang, who are you calling a ‘yes-man’? You don’t understand at all!” Long Kongkong was furious. If it were not for the fact that he couldn’t beat him, he would have pounced on him.

“Does Teacher Na Ye not care that you were going out on weekends?” Long Dangdang asked curiously.

Long Kongkong retorted angrily, “How did I go out? That’s called work-study, and the teacher fully agrees.”

“I doubt it, you must have tricked Teacher Na Ye.” Long Dangdang knew his brother too well.

The anger on Long Kongkong’s face disappeared instantly, and he took hold of Long Dangdang’s arm, “Brother, dear brother. You can’t tip off, for the future happiness of your dear brother.”

Long Dangdang glanced at him and said, “As long as you study hard and cultivate diligently, I won’t betray you. Our cousin has already invited us to join her demon hunting team in the future. She is very strong, and there will be other people joining in the future. You have to keep up, understand?”

“Okay, brother, you’re right, I will listen to you. As long as it does not affect me accompanying the goddess on weekends, it’s nothing.” Long Kongkong agreed without hesitation.
