Chapter 142 - Unwarranted Compliments

"Basically, but this one is quite more advanced in the sense that it takes the properties of all the ingredients used to form it and put them into effect…

"

"For instance, I told you to use Space Dao because nothing can pass through space undetected; not even ghosts, spirits and shadows…

"

"Thus, it has taken your Space Dao energy and stored it within itself, and will keep absorbing the energy in the atmosphere before converting them into Space Dao energy to keep the formation and the barrier powering itself and on standby till the end of time…

" Little Fei proudly stated…

Min Hong walked down the stairs as he conversed with Little Fei and Daniel, whilst the rest of the group also seemed to be murmuring some things to each other when Min Hong came in;

"Is everything alright?

" Min Hong asked as Gong Yi stood up to offer him a seat before letting him in on the topic of their discussion;

"Yeah, we were just talking about how we had the best sleep of our lives last night…

" Gong Yi said;

"Eh?

" Min Hong acted surprise like he had no idea of what they were talking about;

"Yeah, the stalking feeling abruptly vanished last night…

" Elder Fu added;

"Oh?

" Min Hong once again exclaimed like he was truly surprised by the situation;

"Yeah, and the ominous aura that covered this building is no longer there…

" Yu Ming also chipped in;

"You don't mean it!?

" Min Hong continued his acting;

"It was actually true, I and Ting Ting slept like a baby last night, but you were so busy staying up doing whoever knows what and you missed out on the opportunity to have a nice rest…

"

The Princess added with a sneering smirk as the entire group laughed lightly at the situation whilst Min Hong's brows were twitching;

'Tch, to think I was busy dealing with shadows and providing security whilst you all were snoring through your butts, and you dare rub it on my face… Hmph!'

Min Hong snorted mentally in playful anger as a mischievous smirk abruptly appeared on his face;

'Perhaps I should let Cheng and his Partner give you another dose of nightmares… Hehe he…' Min Hong thought to himself as he gave an evil mental chuckle;

'But you are all lucky I have to complete this mission in two days, so I have no time to play around…'

Min Hong added before he finally looked up to all of them and all of a sudden the table went silent;

Min Hong had been silent for a while whilst simply gazing at them, and they understood that he was about to address them and didn't want to tell them to keep quiet;

"It's nice that everyone actually had a nice rest, because you will all be needing that extra energy very soon…

"

"Eh?

"

Xiao Gui was the first person to voice out his confusion; to him and to the rest of the group, they didn't think anyone within the tribe could give them any sort of problems should they get into a fight;

But that was if it was the real Left grand Elder and co that they were fighting, but only Min Hong knows, and he realized it might be too dangerous to let these people know about the Yao Demons now…

"Yeah, my gut keeps telling me that a big trouble is coming and on the horizon…

"

Min Hong wanted the group to be mentally prepared to battle people stronger than them without giving them any clue into the identity of their opponents after all, he couldn't simply walk up to the group and say;

"Hey guys, we will be fighting some Yao Demons tomorrow and most of them are all in the Late Saint Stage

/Nirvana stage…

" when they don't even know what a Yao Demon is…

"Unh?

" Gu Ming exclaimed softly;

"Yeah… That's why I have been having trouble sleeping…

" Min Hong added;

"Fei Hong has never cried wolf, so that means if he is feeling that sort of danger then there is a strong probability it might be true…

" Gong Yi chipped in as the rest of the group nodded;

'No wonder this peacefulness we are experiencing was very abrupt…'

'So they are trying to let us get complacent and drop our guards before they sweep in and clear us all…' Gong Yi nodded as he shared his views;

'Well, I didn't mean it that way, but if that works, then fine, I will go with that…' Min Hong thought to himself;

'So he was up all night because he couldn't shake of the feeling of lurking danger, and I was here thinking it was because he wanted to screw Ting Ting…'

'That's so petty of me, and very noble of you…' The Princess mentally chastised herself before looking at Min Hong with a warm expression;

'Eh?'

'What have I done?'

'Why is she looking at me like that?' Min Hong was stunned by the sudden change in the vibes he was getting from the Princess;

'So he was so worried about us that he couldn't go to sleep, and I really thought he was trying to ram me last night…'

'Ki Ting that's so despicable of you!' Ki Ting chastised herself as well before looking at Min Hong with a smitten expression;

'He is handsome, talented and considerate…'

'We really need to stop thinking perverse thoughts whenever he pops into mind…' Ki Ting added;

'Wow, so we were busy dozing off and this guy couldn't sleep because he was concerned about our safety!'

'True leader!'

The rest of the group also had one good thing or the other to note about Min Hong;

'So, he was the presence I felt outside my door last night?' Yu Ming thought;

But whist she did feel a presence last night, it was that of the shadow she felt and not Min Hong, because Min Hong wrapped the Oblivion Dao aura all over himself which means no one would be able to detect his presence, except if that person was a Sage, or an expert with stronger understanding of the Oblivion Dao than himself;

"So, he truly cares about me?

" She thought to herself before looking at Min Hong with a smitten face of her own…

Min Hong realized he seemed to be getting unwarranted compliments and it was stunning, thus he quickly moved on with the topic to ward off the awkward situation...
