When Lin Feng and Gao Hai returned to the neighborhood, it was already half past ten.
"Why did you come back so late?" Under the grumbling gaze of the guard, the two swiped their cards and walked into the neighborhood.
The night was bright. Aside from the moonlight reflecting off the Blue Moon Barrier, the neighborhood was pitch black. Not even a shadow could be seen.
Breathing in the air, Lin Feng frowned.
Although three days have passed since the Day of Awakening, the pungent smell of blood still hasn't dissipated. There was also a faint smell of disinfectant. The combination of the two smells made him feel nauseous.
"Feng, if the netizens knew that your endorsement fee is as high as $18 million, they would go crazy."
"Taking on advertisements in your third year of high school, I'm afraid that the students wouldn't believe it!"
Gao Hai was very excited along the way, as if he had endless things to say.
"That's true." Lin Feng also laughed.
Originally, because of this amount of money, he was pressured to the point that he couldn't breathe. Now that the pressure is gone, he's obviously a lot more relaxed.
"Feng, after earning such a large sum of money, what do you want to do the most?"
"First, move into the inner city. Living in the outer city is very inconvenient."
"Move?
That's right. Which neighborhood do you plan to buy? When the time comes, I'll go and live there for a few days. "
"The sooner the better. Let's go and look at the houses tomorrow."
"If you move, we won't be able to go to school together."
Talking about this topic, Gao Hai, who was excited along the way, suppressed the depression in his heart and said regretfully.
Regarding Lin Feng's meteoric rise and moving into the inner city, Gao Hai was naturally happy for Lin Feng.
On the Day of Awakening at the age of sixteen, refining the demon spirit of their dreams and becoming a Demon Spiritualist above Fighters was the dream of the two brothers.
After becoming a Demon Spiritualist, they would be able to enter the Nine Elite Universities. After graduation, they would find a good job, earn a lot of money, move into the inner city, and change the living conditions of their family. This was their goal.
Now that Ya Ge had realized her dream and signed a contract with the Juxing Club, she would probably be admitted to one of the top three Hero Academy soon.
Although Lin Feng didn't refine a demon spirit, that's because he didn't fancy it. He wanted to refine an Earth Ranking demon spirit. He's only in his third year of high school and he's already a spokesperson for an advertisement. The advertisement fee is as high as $18 million. How many people can compare to him?
His two best friends, who had grown up together, had both soared into the sky and lived the lives of the elites.
Only Gao Hai, although he became a Demon Spiritualist, he only refined a Grade 2 Demonic Vigor Bull.
Compared to others, being able to become a Demon Spiritualist is already very lucky. However, compared to Lin Feng and Ya Ge, he's still as unknown as before.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to move into the inner city for the rest of my life." Gao Hai smiled bitterly in his heart.
"You're not going to school with me?"
Linfeng could feel Gao Hai's frustration and asked curiously.
"You're in the inner city, and I'm in the outer city. How can we go to school together?"
Gao Hai said in a low voice.
He and Lin Feng went to school together since they were young. Going to school together has become a habit.
Compared to disappointment, he's more worried that as time passes, his relationship with Lin Feng will become more and more distant.
When Lin Feng signs a contract with the club and gets into one of the three great Hero Academy, the distance between them will only become bigger.
"Haha."
Linfeng lightly smiled and decided not to tease Gao Hai anymore. He smiled and said, "Tomorrow, we'll move together."
"Move together?"
Gao Hai still couldn't react, "Aren't you going to look at houses tomorrow?
Why are you moving so quickly? "
Linfeng extended his hand and hooked onto Gao Hai's shoulder. He smiled and said, "What I'm saying is, you'll live with me in the inner city!"
Gao Hai's face was filled with shock. He couldn't believe his own ears.
"What do you mean?"
Gao Hai suddenly raised his head and looked at Linfeng. At this moment, he seemed to have understood something. However, he still couldn't believe it.
"You have a share of this money."
Linfeng said as he walked, "Tomorrow, you'll go to the inner city with me to look at houses. We'll each have a house."
Linfeng has a huge sum of $18 million on him. Originally, it was to prepare for refining the Nightmare Lord.
$13 million to buy Qi Blood Pills and Soul Nurturing Pills. $5 million was just in case, to hire a Rank 5 Spirit type Demon Spiritualist to guard him.
However, Linfeng used two months as the maximum time limit, the worst case scenario, and the budget he gave.
But now, only three days have passed. Not only did he break through to Rank 8 Physique Cultivator, his blood qi is also a lot more abundant than before.
At this moment, the Nightmare Lord in Linfeng's body hasn't been assimilated by his blood. If he were to refine it now, he wouldn't need $10 million. At the very least, he can save $3 million. Even the $5 million to hire a Spirit type Demon Spiritualist can be saved.
In other words, Linfeng has $18 million on him. After deducting the $10 million needed to refine the Nightmare Lord, he still has $8 million to use.
As for this $8 million, he's prepared to use it to buy a house and change his living environment.
"I only offered $500. Feng, I can't accept it …" Gao Hai immediately shook his head and rejected.
He couldn't deny that he was moved. After all, living in the inner city is his and his family's wish since young.
However, he only gave $500 to Linfeng. $500 in exchange for a house?
Although he doesn't know what district Linfeng wants to buy, and how big the house is, but in the inner city, the cheapest house is at least $2-3 million.
This amount of money is too much. He doesn't dare to accept it.
"We're brothers. What's mine, there's also yours." Linfeng said, smiling.
Hearing Linfeng's words, Gao Hai slightly lowered his head. His eyes were a little red. He didn't dare to speak. He was afraid that if he spoke, he would cry.
"Why are you so moved?"
Seeing that Gao Hai looked like he was about to cry, Linfeng felt that it was a little funny. Therefore, he laughed and scolded, "Don't you know who I am? Ye Qiu of the South, Linfeng of the North. If Ye Qiu signs with Thunderbolt, he'll get $300 million a year. I, Linfeng, won't be worse than him. I'm still short of your house."
Although he knew that Linfeng was comforting him.
Why does it feel so reasonable?
With that said, Gao Hai felt much better. He held back his tears. "Feng, thank you."
"No need to thank me. We'll go pick a house tomorrow."
"You're not bringing it home?"
In Gao Hai's opinion, buying a house is a big deal. It's naturally better to have family with him.
"No need. It's a surprise for them." Linfeng chuckled and said, "Okay, I'm here. See you tomorrow morning."
"Okay."
Gao Hai watched as Linfeng walked up the dark stairs. He did not move for a long time. The tears that he had been holding back gushed out at this moment.
"Feng, thank you."
Gao Hai murmured. After a long time, he walked home. He wiped away the tears on his face, leaving behind hope for a better life in the future.

Linfeng carefully opened the door, afraid that he would make a big noise and wake up his elder sister and younger sister sleeping in the living room.
When he changed into slippers and walked into the living room, under the dim candlelight, he did not expect that his family was still awake. They were all sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
"You're back!"
Seeing that her son was back, Lin Fang, who was still on tenterhooks, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Linfeng had called to say that he would not be back for dinner, his mother was inevitably worried that he would not come back so late.
"It's good that you're back. Have you eaten?" Lin Kerou was obviously a little sleepy, but she still forced herself to ask.
"Yes, I've eaten. Why are you waiting for me instead of sleeping?" "Your mom is worried, so we can chat," Old Ma explained.
Early this morning, the post 'High School Student Brutally Beats Martial Artist' had reached the top of the daily rankings. The whole neighborhood knew about it, and Old Ma was no exception.
Not to mention, Linfeng's battle today was on the evening news!
Old Ma did not expect Linfeng to be so strong that even a Rank-1 martial artist was no match for him. Although many people doubted Linfeng's talent as a duo cultivator, Old Ma chose to believe in Linfeng.
They were not sleeping so late because they were worried that the doubts and curses from the netizens would pressure Linfeng.
"Little Feng, why don't we not go to Thunder Martial Arts Dojo tomorrow?"
Lin Fang saw that Linfeng was very natural and did not look sad. She hesitated for a while and said this.
She only found out about Linfeng's big commotion from the neighbors today.
She had also browsed through the posts on the martial arts forum. The doubts, curses, and mockery from the netizens on the forum worried her.
She was worried that Linfeng would not be able to withstand the pressure and would have an accident.
The college entrance examination was in less than three months. It was a matter of life and death.
Linfeng understood what his family was worried about.
He had originally planned to give his family a surprise after buying the house, but when he saw how worried his family was, he smiled and said something that shocked everyone.
"I've sold the advertising space!"
