Chapter 128: Seeking the Queen's Help

~7 min read 1,299 words

After thinking it over, Lin Feng also felt that only that place could have these things.

Looking at the smugly boasting Zi Yan, he said with a twitching corner of his eye: "Don't tell me you looted the Jia Ma Empire's Alchemist Guild."

"You're really smart. On the day of the finals of the Alchemist Tournament, that Dou Huang old man who threatened me left his lair to oversee the finals, which let me reap great success. After I had taken everything from the core area, I was discovered by the Dou Wang guarding outside. But don't worry, I wasn't seen by that person."

While speaking, Zi Yan stood with hands on her hips, full of pride.

And when Lin Feng heard this, he finally understood why, whenever Zi Yan left Heijiaoyu, he always felt like he had forgotten something.

Forget to warn this fearless little brat in front of him not to steal medicinal herbs!

Now he could only pray that Xiao Yan and his disciple wouldn't find out about this...

"You little troublemaker, you almost ruined my plan—confiscate all of this."

After saying that, Lin Feng waved his hand and swept everything on the stone platform into his storage ring.

"What? These are the fruits of my labor, and you dare to swallow my stuff—return my hard-earned money!"

Upon hearing that everything was gone, Zi Yan instantly turned into a little tiger, flailing her hands as she charged at him.

Unfortunately, after Lin Feng raised a hand to block Zi Yan's head, her short little arms couldn't reach him at all.

After subduing the little girl, Lin Feng then brought her to the space barrier.

With Zi Yan's help, he smoothly exited and then flew swiftly toward Spirit Mountain City.

He had been away for so long now; he needed to go back and check on the situation at the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

Otherwise, who knows what those desperadoes from Heijiaoyu might do.

"Pavilion Master."

Having been summoned by Lin Feng, who had just returned, several people hurried to gather in his courtyard.

"I've been in seclusion this whole time; nothing's gone wrong inside the pavilion, right?"

Gazing down at the several supervisors, Lin Feng casually asked.

Looking at that aura, much stronger than before, several people felt a chill in their hearts.

Then Pang Sheng, head of the Treasure Sales Department, stepped forward and said: "With your Five-star Alchemist's deterrence, plus our current strength not being weak, no strong dare to cause trouble—only your previously refined pills have nearly sold out, so we need to restock."

"Hmm, these are some pills I refined; take them first to replenish the inventory."

Seeing that his forces were safe and sound, Lin Feng nodded slightly and then tossed out a low-level storage ring.

"By the way, Pavilion Master, in three months Black Seal City will hold its annual auction; this is the auction catalog."

At that moment, Wang An of the Treasure Search Department suddenly stepped forward and said, simultaneously handing over a small golden booklet.

Upon hearing what he said, Lin Feng realized this was the auction where Xiao Yan first encountered Heijiaoyu in the original story.

After taking the booklet and asking a few more questions, he let the others go attend to their tasks.

However, he retained Niu Tuo and Zhang Shi, who had already advanced to Nine-star Dou Ling.

Gazing at the two, Lin Feng took out two jade bottles and placed them on the table, then said: "Here is a Five-star high-grade medicinal pill I personally developed, the Supreme King Pill. Its effect is that it gives roughly an eighty percent chance for a Dou Ling peak cultivator to break through to Dou Wang."

Upon hearing about this pill that could help them break through to Dou Wang, their eyes instantly blazed with fervor.

They also knew that this time, their advancement to Nine-star Dou Ling was only possible thanks to Lin Feng's help.

As for Dou Wang, they had spent decades, possibly even their entire lives, without necessarily being able to break through.

But as long as they take this pill before them, they have about an eighty percent chance to break through into that longed-for realm.

Seeing their expressions, Lin Feng also curled his lips slightly and then added: "However, once you take this pill, your life and death will be under my control."

"This..."

Upon hearing that, the two exchanged a glance, and the fervor in their eyes diminished somewhat.

Given their sensitive nerves, accustomed to licking blood from the blade, who would willingly entrust their lives entirely to another?

Yet, considering the pill's powerful effect, they found themselves unable to voice refusal.

Lin Feng, seated at the head, did not urge them, merely closing his eyes quietly to rest his spirit.

He did not believe the two could refuse these two pills.

After all, given their talent, if they cultivated normally, reaching Dou Wang before dying of old age would already be a sign of ancestral blessings.

Now that such a good opportunity has arisen, as long as their brains aren't addled, they know how to choose.

"Thank you, Pavilion Master, for your gracious gift; we are willing to surrender control of our lives to you."

Sure enough, after a moment's hesitation, the two ultimately chose to accept the pill.

He flicked the pills toward them with a casual toss and then said: "Go take them now; after a while, there will be a great battle."

"Yes."

Niu Tuo and Zhang Shi, although they thought the great battle Lin Feng mentioned was no simple matter, also didn't dare to ask, so they merely withdrew.

Anyway, no matter what, taking this pill to boost combat power is always right.

"Lin Feng, when will my Huangji Pill be ready?"

Seeing them leave, Zi Yan, who knows where she popped out from, asked Lin Feng.

"Stop urging me; take these pills and eat them first—I'll give you the medicine tomorrow or the day after."

Lin Feng lightly flicked her little head and said helplessly.

"Hmph, if you're not going to give me a reward, that's fine—but you actually hit me."

Quickly putting away the pills, Zi Yan covered the spot that had been flicked and ran off to look for the nearby mountains and forests.

She intended to chat with the magic beasts inside about medicinal herbs-related topics.

Watching the increasingly mischievous Zi Yan, Lin Feng shook his head.

He then produced a dazed-looking Little Color and coaxed: "Little Color, could you let the older sister inside your body come out for a bit?"

"Ooh ooh~"

The Heaven Swallowing Python, hearing that it wanted the wicked woman who often bullied it to come out, weakly shook its snake head.

There are three fire-attribute fifth-grade pills, little guy, take a look, how fragrant they are.

Seeing its resistant look, Lin Feng directly took out a jade bottle, pulled the stopper, and swayed it before its eyes.

And Little Color also resisted stubbornly for a few seconds before quickly succumbing, its little head shaking wildly.

After the three pills entered his belly, his body suddenly burst forth with a halo of color, and then Medusa's familiar delicate form appeared in his arms.

Speak, what business do you have with this king?

As she spoke, Medusa's peach-like delicate form did not leave Lin Feng's embrace, seeming to have already grown accustomed to this.

However, seeing Lin Feng this time actually take the initiative to seek her out, Medusa was also quite curious.

Your Majesty, do you have any way to conceal the aura on my body?

Rubbing his hands together, Lin Feng asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Medusa furrowed her brows slightly, her tone a bit impatient: 'You came to me just for this? No!'
