My Sexy CEO Wife-Chapter 220 - 218: A Piece of Snow-White Stone

A group of troublemakers was thus subdued by Gao Fei.

They had all been quite arrogant before, but after getting a beating from Gao Fei, they all became very obedient.

In the following time, Gao Fei started to instruct this group of troublemakers, and by the end of the day, everyone was exhausted and could not go on. There was no way around it—Gao Fei's training methods were too harsh, which left the troublemakers speaking of their hardships.

Of course, the results were good. After a day of devastation, everyone's strength had improved.

"Combat is all about skill. Don't just blindly attack; carefully observe the enemy's weaknesses. Once you find them, strike hard and fast, and take the enemy down with the quickest speed. Aim for a decisive blow and don't give your opponent a chance to recover," Gao Fei advised.

"You all have good potential and are promising martial arts students. As long as you practice diligently, you are sure to achieve great success."

"Be ruthless with your enemies and sincere with your friends, and strive to have a clear conscience in all your deeds."

"Alright, that's enough for today. You all can go back and rest now. Tomorrow morning, we continue training," Gao Fei announced.

Waving his hand, Gao Fei said, "Go back, take a hot bath, then sleep well. Replenish your energy because tomorrow's training will be even more grueling."

The students got up from the ground and left, supporting one another.

"Mr. Gao, thank you for today," Xia Tao approached from the side. "I've prepared dinner in the canteen, all seafood with excellent taste, and I've also brought a few bottles of fine liquor. Let's have a good drink tonight."

Following Xia Tao's lead, Gao Fei arrived at the canteen.

At the position near the door was a large dining table, covered with various kinds of dishes—crabs, lobsters, assorted fish—emitting an enticing aroma from a distance. Additionally, a few bottles of beautifully packaged white liquor were placed on the table.

"This is so lavish," Gao Fei commented with a smile. "How can the two of us finish all this?"

"Luo Lisheng and Fan Xiaomei are also coming," Xia Tao replied. "I especially invited them to drink with you." Adding after a moment, Xia Tao said, "They have a nickname—Wine Immortal. It's what everyone calls them."

"Wine Immortal?" Gao Fei was taken aback. "So, they can drink a lot?"

"Yes," Xia Tao nodded. "They really can hold their liquor! Every time I drink with them, it makes me apprehensive."

"Okay then," Gao Fei pointed at Xia Tao's nose and said, "You're up to no good, eh? Inviting two Wine Immortals to get me drunk? Are you trying to show me who's boss because I beat up your men today and you're holding a grudge, planning to get back at me like this?"

"Do I really seem that despicable to you?" Xia Tao asked with a wry smile.

Gao Fei nodded earnestly, "Yes, you are quite despicable."

"..." Xia Tao was left speechless.

A few minutes later, Luo Lisheng and Fan Xiaomei arrived. They had taken baths and changed into fresh clothes, looking very spirited. They had already decided to join forces against Gao Fei, intent on getting him utterly drunk. Unable to outfight him, they wanted at least to outdrink him!

Unfortunately... that wish was doomed to go unfulfilled.

Gao Fei was a formidable fighter and an even better drinker, practically immune to intoxication. He sat down and poured one cup after another into his mouth; in a short time, he had drunk dozens of cups without a hint of red on his face or shortness of breath—no sign of drunkenness at all.

On the other hand, Luo Lisheng and Fan Xiaomei were red-faced, thick-necked, and unsteady, struggling to speak clearly.

The winner was clear!

The two of them together were no match for Gao Fei! The gap was just too great!

"Mr. Gao... I... I give up..." Luo Lisheng slurred, "Completely give up... From now on... you are my idol...

my only idol..."

"I'm convinced as well..." Fan Xiaomei swayed, speaking with difficulty, "You're the real Wine Immortal... In front of you... I'm just a little shrimp..."

"Admirable! Really admirable!" Xia Tao sighed. "Mr. Gao, can you just tell me how many more cups you need to drink before you'd fall drunk?"

Both Luo Lisheng and Fan Xiaomei stared with wide eyes at Gao Fei, curious about his answer. Over the years, they had met many skilled drinkers, but next to Gao Fei, they all seemed to fade in comparison.

"I don't know," Gao Fei shook his head. "I've never been drunk before." Ever since he began his path toward Cultivating Immortality, drinking had become child's play for him; a full cup of liquor ingested was immediately absorbed and neutralized by his True Qi. Gao Fei found it difficult to get drunk.

"A bottomless pit," Xia Tao exclaimed. "Your capacity for liquor is like a bottomless pit! I think you should enter a drinking contest; you'd definitely win the championship and even break the world Guinness record!"

"Not interested," Gao Fei took a sip from his cup, "Drinking is about enjoyment, savoring slowly, relishing the indescribable feeling it brings."

After eating and drinking their fill, it was well into the night.

Luo Lisheng and Fan Xiaomei were utterly inebriated, barely able to stand, and in the end, Xia Tao had to take them back.

Gao Fei, hands clasped behind his back, walked toward the rest area.

The moon was full that evening, and the stars sparkled with a brilliant light. Gazing up at the sky, Gao Fei murmured to himself, "Does heaven have an end? If it does... where would that end be? And where is the Immortal Realm mentioned in the legends? What lies behind the vast expanse of stars?"

After stepping onto the path of Cultivating Immortality, Gao Fei's temperament had changed. He often found himself staring at the sky in a trance, eager to soar into the cosmos, to explore its mysteries, to see if heaven truly had an end, and incidentally, to search for the legendary Immortal Realm.

Could the Immortal Realm be the very end of heaven?

Is the Immortal Realm the only one?

Aside from the Immortal Realm, are there other realms out there?

Do those mythological figures from legends actually exist? 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Whenever Gao Fei thought about these questions, he felt an unbearable itch in his heart, so much so that he struggled to calm down for several days.

As a mortal, he naturally wouldn't have pondered such things, because thinking about them was pointless; mortals have a lifespan of at most a century, after which they turn into a handful of yellow earth. There was neither time nor energy, nor ability to explore the mysteries of the cosmos.

But now, things were different.

Gao Fei had become a Cultivator; not only had his strength increased dramatically, but his lifespan had also surged. He had the time, energy, and ability to explore the mysteries of the cosmos! Gao Fei secretly decided in his heart that one day he would step into the cosmos to search for the end of the heavens.

He wanted to unearth all the hidden secrets of the stars!

The more Gao Fei thought about it, the more excited he became. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, pointing to the sky with a domineering tone, "Just wait! One day I will conquer you and become the ruler of the cosmos!"

"Eh? What's that?"

Gao Fei's gaze caught sight of something that thrilled him immensely.

Off to the left in front, there was a multicolored stone shining with a serene light under the moonlight, dreamy and ethereal, extraordinarily beautiful.

"Spiritual Energy!"

Gao Fei felt a surge of Spiritual Energy from the stone, an incredibly abundant wave of it.

"Treasure!"

Gao Fei quickly dashed over, circled around the stone a few times, and activated his Clairvoyance to inspect it. The more he looked, the happier he became—what a fantastic find! Indeed, doing good brought good fortune! Hahaha...

He had come to the base to be an instructor as a favor, and unexpectedly stumbled upon a stone brimming with Spiritual Energy—what a pleasant surprise.

"This must be a Spirit Stone."

"Such a large Spirit Stone."

"The Spiritual Energy inside is rich and pure."

"I must get it!"

Eager, Gao Fei took out his phone and called Xia Tao, "Hey, come out quick, I need to talk to you." Without waiting for Xia Tao to reply, Gao Fei hung up and continued to gaze at the stone, his eyes sparkling.

In less than a minute, Xia Tao arrived: "Mr. Gao, what's so urgent?"

"I want this stone," Gao Fei got straight to the point, "Name your price, I'm willing to pay anything."

"Uh?" Xia Tao was startled: "You called me out just for this stone?"

"That's right." Gao Fei nodded: "This stone is very beautiful, and I like it a lot. I hope you can sell it to me."

"Just take it, no charge." Xia Tao said with a smile: "It's just a stone, not worth much."

"No, I can't just take it for nothing; I must pay you." Gao Fei's stance was firm: "I can't take advantage of you. Is ten million enough?"

"Ten million?" Xia Tao exclaimed: "Don't scare me... Can a mere stone be worth ten million?"

"It is, definitely worth it," Gao Fei nodded: "I'll transfer the money to you right now." Gao Fei took out his phone and unhesitatingly transferred ten million to Xia Tao.

"Mr. Gao, you..." Xia Tao was at a loss for words: "You came to the base as an instructor, and instead of getting paid, you've given away ten million—I can't in good conscience accept this."

"There's no need for you to feel troubled. If anything, it's me who's taking advantage of you." Gao Fei waved his hand subconsciously, intending to put the stone into his storage ring, but after careful thought, he decided against this idea. If he really put the stone into his storage ring, he would definitely frighten Xia Tao, which would be difficult to explain later.

After a moment of contemplation, Gao Fei had an idea: "Find some people to move the stone outside, then I'll arrange for someone to transport it away."

"I'll get a vehicle to deliver it to Southern City for you."

"There's no need for that, just do as I've told you."

"...Alright then." Under Gao Fei's insistence, Xia Tao found a few people to move the stone, weighing a thousand catties, outside. Originally, Xia Tao had placed the stone inside the base simply because it looked nice, as decoration—little did he know it would eventually catch Gao Fei's eye.

Xia Tao placed a high value on Gao Fei; it wasn't just a matter of an inconsequential stone, but Xia Tao would have agreed even if it was something more important. The longer he knew Gao Fei, the more he valued him. Gao Fei had become Xia Tao's trump card in his mind, capable of solving all his difficulties.

"Alright, there's nothing more, you can all go back and rest."

Once Xia Tao and the others had left, Gao Fei turned into a shadowy figure and left the base. Seeing that no one was around, he swept the stone into his Storage Space with a grand gesture and then returned to the base. The entire operation was flawlessly executed, and not a single person noticed.
