Inside Feng Ran Pavilion, the lottery continued.
The ones who trembled with the greatest excitement were undoubtedly Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo.
When the 70,000-year Right Leg Bone dropped into Snake Lance Douluo's hands, the Level 92 veteran actually collapsed to both knees, smashing the floor with his fists as his shoulders shook violently.
He cried.
Openly.
Nobody laughed.
Everyone understood.
To protect Qian Renxue, he and Porcupinefish Douluo had been stuck in Heaven Dou City for more than ten years—stagnant, surpassed, and forgotten.
This wasn't just a reward.
This was ten years of bitterness melting all at once.
Porcupinefish Douluo was even more dramatic.
As his ninth spirit ring transformed from black to brilliant crimson, he trembled uncontrollably, repeating only two words:
"A miracle…
A miracle!!"
But for some people, fate was not so kind.
When the turn came to Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan…
everyone's expression changed.
It was a complicated look—anticipation, pity, and heavy schadenfreude.
Yue Guan was full of confidence.
But when the glowing reward orb finally faded in his hand…
his smile stiffened like frozen dough.
No spirit power surge.
No new ring.
No divine phenomenon.
Instead—there lay a neatly folded item.
Fabric smooth.
A bold, flamboyant purple.
A style… extremely tight-fitting.
Ghost Douluo leaned in, voice hoarse and dark as always, reading the label aloud:
"Never-damaging…
Self-cleaning…
Warm in winter, cool in summer…
King's Purple Exclusive Edition…"
A pause.
Then, the kill shot:
"…Underwear."
PFFT—!!
Someone exploded into laughter first.
And then the entire restaurant erupted.
Even Qian Daoliu turned away, his shoulders trembling like a man trying not to laugh during a funeral.
Yue Guan's face turned green.
He had forgotten—
he was still on the System's observation list.
He turned toward Ghost Douluo with eyes full of betrayal.
Ghost Douluo only patted his shoulder with exaggerated sincerity:
"Yue Guan.
It's alright."
"I think… this underwear suits you."
Chrysanthemum Douluo almost burst a blood vessel.
If sword qi could be generated from humiliation, he would've ascended on the spot.
Qian Renxue's Turn
At last, only Qian Renxue remained.
She was still drowning in despair over the rejected monthly package, her spirits limp, uninterested.
Until Lin Feng spoke.
"Your reward—Spirit evolution."
A white light entered her body.
Behind her, the Seraphim phantom appeared—six wings merging, reforming, reshaping—
Becoming two condensed, pure holy wings that radiated sacred brilliance.
Qian Daoliu's pupils contracted violently.
Her Seraphim spirit quality…
had surpassed his own.
This divine grace finally soothed her disappointment.
But when she remembered she could eat only one meal a day from now on…
her mood sank again.
Qian Daoliu Moves
Suddenly—
Qian Daoliu straightened his robes, walked to the center of the room, and bowed deeply toward Lin Feng.
"Senior."
His voice was filled with reverence bordering on worship.
Everyone stared.
Even Bibi Dong paused mid-sip, a smirk curling on her lips.
The High Priest… what was he doing?
Qian Renxue froze.
"Grandpa?"
Lin Feng didn't look up.
"Speak."
Qian Daoliu inhaled deeply, voice sonorous yet trembling.
"Senior, Feng Ran Pavilion is the most sacred place in the world."
"Junior wishes to… guard the gate for Senior!"
"To serve… as a doorman!"
Silence.
Absolute silence.
Bibi Dong's phoenix eyes flashed with amusement.
For food, this old man has abandoned all dignity…
Gold Crocodile Douluo and the others almost fell off their chairs.
The High Priest—
The tallest pillar of Spirit Hall—
Wanted to be a door guard?!
Qian Renxue almost fainted.
"Grandpa… you…"
But Qian Daoliu ignored everyone—
his eyes locked onto Lin Feng with burning anticipation.
Finally—
Lin Feng opened his eyes, mildly curious.
"Conditions?"
Qian Daoliu's old face flushed.
He rubbed his hands like a child begging for snacks.
"Junior does not seek payment."
"I only wish to use the Dream Crystal bestowed by Senior… to summon Bo Saixi of Sea God Island…"
"To guard the divine gate with me."
He paused.
Then revealed his real request, voice shrinking:
"And if possible… could Junior receive… an extra plate of egg fried rice each day…?"
The other six priests nearly jumped him on the spot.
Big brother!!!
You traitor!!!
You finally had a chance to do something good—
And you ask for egg fried rice ONLY FOR YOURSELF?!
And even worse—
You want to bring Bo Saixi?
Big brother!!
You didn't think of us!
You thought of another woman!!!
BIG BROTHER, YOU HAVE CHANGED!
Meanwhile, their internal screaming intensified:
We treat you as our big brother—
You treat us like air!
All for a woman!!
And a meal!!
Yet they knew painfully well—
Among the entire continent, only two people had enough status to guard the Pavilion gate:
Qian Daoliu.
Bo Saixi.
Everyone else?
Wasn't worthy.
Qian Renxue, on the other hand…
Her face flushed bright red.
Her fists clenched so tight they shook.
Grandpa!
First you abandon me—
Then you sneak off to apply for a gatekeeping job—
Then you offer to bring Bo Saixi over—
Do you want to give me a step-grandmother?!
Lin Feng's Reaction
Lin Feng rubbed his chin, stunned for three seconds.
Then that shock turned into pure, shimmering excitement.
In his mind—
a businessman named "Profiteer" booted up instantly.
Hold on—
let's analyze this properly.
A Level 99 Peerless Douluo—
One of the continent's peak combatants—
Voluntarily applying to guard the gate?
For free?
And not only that—
He wants to bring his own colleague, also Level 99, the High Priestess of Sea God Island?!
Two Peerless Douluo.
Zero salary.
Self-provided manpower.
Is this…
Is this a free top-tier security team knocking on my door?!
Even better—
All Qian Daoliu wanted in return was:
One extra egg fried rice per day.
One.
Egg.
Fried.
Rice.
Lin Feng's mind exploded.
That dish cost him nothing—
just a few extra flips of the wok during employee meals!
This wasn't a deal.
This was daylight robbery—
He was robbing the continent's strongest for pennies!!
