Chapter 5: Enemies on a Narrow Road, Meeting the Ex-Girlfriend Again!

"Mr. Lin, please speak freely!"

"As long as this old man can manage it, even if it means climbing a mountain of blades or descending into a sea of flames, I will not refuse!" Su Wanshan said with a smile.

Lin Feng shook his head indifferently: "Hehe! You are too kind, Elder!"

"There is no need to climb a mountain of blades or descend into a sea of flames!"

Lin Feng turned slightly, his gaze falling upon Lin Wei, and the eyes of everyone present followed suit.

Only then did they notice the little girl standing behind Lin Feng.

"This is..." Su Mingyue looked puzzled.

"This is my younger sister!" Lin Feng explained.

Su Mingyue's expression showed a hint of surprise.

No wonder... looking at the girl's appearance, she was eighty percent similar to Lin Feng.

So she was his sister!

"So it is Mr. Lin's sister. Mr. Lin saved my grandfather's life!"

"Your sister is my sister!"

Su Mingyue smiled and took Lin Wei's hand, but the moment their palms touched, a bone-chilling cold surged into her palm.

Su Mingyue shivered violently, let go of Lin Wei's hand, and her pretty face was filled with astonishment.

In the middle of the dog days of summer, Lin Wei's hand was as cold as an icicle; it was too strange!

Only then did Lin Feng explain unhurriedly: "To tell you the truth, my sister is afflicted with the Kunlun Cold Gu, and I have used my methods to temporarily suppress the cold poison within her body!"

"But this poison is extremely potent, and after three years, the cold poison has already seeped into her bone marrow. Only a special medicinal ingredient can completely eradicate the cold poison and heal my sister's body!"

"And this medicinal ingredient is only possessed by the Su Family!"

Lin Feng's purpose in coming this time was to seek medicine for his sister; fulfilling the marriage contract was secondary, and the most important thing was to heal his sister's body first.

Upon hearing this, Su Wanshan was momentarily stunned: "Medicine?"

"I do not know what kind of medicinal ingredient Mr. Lin needs, but if my Su Family has it, I will certainly present it to Mr. Lin immediately!"

Su Dahai also said respectfully: "That's right! Mr. Lin, you are the great benefactor of our Su Family. As long as our Su Family has it, we will definitely take it out to honor you, Elder!"

Su Mingyue was a bit curious; Lin Feng had vast supernatural powers, could there really be medicinal ingredients he could not find?

"This medicine is the Nine Tribulations Red Sun Ginseng!" Lin Feng smiled faintly.

Nine Tribulations Red Sun Ginseng?

Such a mysterious medicine? Just hearing the name, one knew it was no ordinary object!

Su Mingyue looked puzzled; she had never even heard of this thing.

The Su Family had many industries and was involved in many pharmaceutical collaborations, and Su Mingyue had heard of many types of medicinal ingredients, but this was the first time she had heard of this item.

"Mr. Lin, I know of Red Sun Ginseng, but what is this Nine Tribulations Red Sun Ginseng?"

"My Su Family... does not have this item!" Su Wanshan said with a face full of confusion.

Even Li Hongda, who was standing to the side, was a bit bewildered.

"It is that thing!" Lin Feng pointed to a strangely shaped solid wood ornament next to the table.

The wood was pitch black all over, covered in dense cracks, and looked just like a burnt piece of firewood.

"What? Mr. Lin, are you not mistaken?"

"This thing is just a piece of charred, rotten tree branch. My father thought it looked a bit unique back then, so he picked it up and had someone carve it into an ornament!" Su Dahai said, stunned.

"Hahaha! So Mr. Lin has taken a fancy to this item; please, take it!" Su Wanshan immediately ordered someone to hand the object to Lin Feng.

"Many thanks, Elder Su!"

Looking at the black branch in his hand, Lin Feng smiled calmly.

The Nine Tribulations Red Sun Ginseng is a type of Heavenly Treasure that grows in volcanic craters; this thing is like a tree yet not a tree, like a flower yet not a flower.

Every hundred years, it undergoes the baptism of a lightning fire tribulation. After nine lightning tribulations, it becomes bright red all over, resembling jade marrow.

Although the age of this Red Sun Ginseng had not yet reached its peak, it was enough to eradicate the cold poison in his sister's body.

Lin Feng put the item away; after returning, he would combine it with three other medicinal ingredients to refine it into a pill for Lin Wei to take.

However, Lin Feng did not have a pill furnace on hand right now, so he could only boil it into a medicinal soup!

"Alright, Elder Su, since there is nothing else, I will be leaving first!"

After saying this, Lin Feng took his sister's hand and left the Su Family.

Li Hongda also hurriedly followed them out.

Seeing this, Su Wanshan hurriedly winked at Su Mingyue: "You girl, what are you standing there for? Why don't you go and see Mr. Lin off!"

"Ah?"

"Oh! Grandfather, I... I understand!" Su Mingyue hurriedly chased after them.

"Mr. Lin, you haven't eaten yet, have you?"

"How about I treat you to a meal before you head back!"

Su Mingyue extended the invitation; this was her first time inviting a man to a meal, and she felt a bit shy for a moment.

"I appreciate Miss Su's kind intentions, but I still have matters to attend to; we shall speak of it another day!" Lin Feng smiled slightly.

"Ah?"

Su Mingyue did not expect Lin Feng to refuse her, and for a moment, she felt a sense of loss in her heart.

"Since you aren't eating, then... then I will take you to buy some clothes!"

"Look at how handsome you are, but you are dressed so shabbily; this outfit lowers your attractiveness!"

"Oh right! I'll buy one for your sister too!"

Lin Feng was wearing a tattered long robe; he had been like this for the three years he spent cultivating on the mountain, and Lin Wei, who was beside him, was also wearing her old clothes.

For these three years, in order to save money, she had never bought any clothing for herself.

"This..." Lin Feng instinctively wanted to refuse.

"Oh, alright, alright, just don't refuse!"

Su Mingyue stepped forward and pulled Lin Feng and Lin Wei by the arms, leading them onto her Rolls-Royce.

Afterward, she ordered the butler to drive straight to Jiangbei City SKP, and after parking the vehicle, the group entered the mall together.

"We've arrived, Mr. Lin!"

"I'm taking you to buy a suit!"

Su Mingyue got out of the car and led Lin Feng toward the most expensive designer suit store.

And just as the three of them were about to walk into the shop, a familiar figure suddenly caught Lin Feng's eye.

Upon seeing this figure, Lin Feng's brow immediately furrowed, and his expression turned cold.

The figure was wearing a black silk hip-hugging skirt, carrying a Hermes bag on her arm, and wearing a jade necklace around her neck; she carried a strong air of a socialite.

It was none other than Lin Feng's ex-girlfriend whom he hadn't seen in three years, Jiang Qian.

What a small world!

To think he would actually run into his ex-girlfriend here!

Beside Jiang Qian stood a slightly chubby man in his thirties wearing glasses.

The man had a side-parted hairstyle, though the hair on the top of his head was visibly sparse.

Three years later, the Jiang Qian in his memory had completely changed her style; her former purity had vanished, replaced by a mature and flirtatious look.

"Brother, after the Lin Family incident, I heard Jiang Qian found another man; this must be her boyfriend!" A look of disgust flashed across Lin Wei's pretty face.

As they spoke, Jiang Qian also raised her head; their eyes met, and Jiang Qian was suddenly startled.

"Ah!!!"

"Lin... Lin Feng?"

"It's you, you didn't die?" Jiang Qian looked astonished, her expression as if she had seen a ghost.

Lin Feng sneered immediately: "What? Are you surprised that I'm not dead?"

He hadn't expected Jiang Qian's reaction to be so intense!

However, Jiang Qian quickly regained her composure, her face revealing a thick layer of arrogance and coldness.

"Tsk tsk! I didn't expect that a jinx like you would still be alive!"

"It seems you really have a tough life!"

Hearing Jiang Qian's sarcasm, Lin Wei was immediately furious: "Jiang Qian, watch your mouth! Who are you calling a jinx?"

"Who else could it be? Your Lin Family suffered a total massacre, wasn't it all cursed by this jinx?"

"Back when I was with him, I didn't have a single good day!"

Jiang Qian looked Lin Feng up and down, and seeing him wearing a tattered robe, she burst into laughter.

"Lin Feng, you aren't planning on buying clothes here, are you?"

"Do you know how expensive the clothes here are?"

"Any suit starts at one hundred thousand; you don't still think you're that young master from before, do you?" The mockery on Jiang Qian's face could not be hidden.

At this moment, the man inside finished changing his clothes and slowly walked to Jiang Qian's side.

"Oh, right, I forgot to introduce him to you; this is my husband, the young master of the Wang Family, a newly risen first-class family in Jiangbei, Wang Fugui!"

"What a good name, my dog is also named Fugui!" Su Mingyue, standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

What?

Hearing someone insult her husband like that, a wave of fury instantly appeared on Jiang Qian's face!

Her gaze immediately landed on Su Mingyue.
