Chapter 599: The Dan Family

But just now, although she hadn't yet read its contents, she had already seen the scroll.

But she's not from the Lin family, so wouldn't that mean she has to marry Lin Feng?

Immediately, her perfectly flawless little face turned an intense crimson.

Even her slender, fair, jade‑like neck turned pink as well.

After a long silence, she finally lifted her slightly misty eyes and, speaking hoarsely, whispered, "My family would definitely oppose my marrying out."

"That girl is really naive, believing that at all!"

Seeing that Dan Chen had not refused, Lin Feng's eyes brightened, and he sighed inwardly.

If Cao Ying heard this, he would certainly not believe it and would roll his eyes at him.

However, Dan Chen's thinking stems from the fact that this method of condensing artificial flame is extremely rare and precious on the Dou Qi Continent.

Especially for alchemy families like the Dan family, this battle technique that can amplify flame power and increase their chances of forging pills is highly prized.

Nonetheless, Lin Feng gave it to the Dan family to repay Dan Yitian for the many alchemy methods and formulas he left him.

Those alchemy methods, though, are mostly obsolete for him now.

But in the previous few years, they had been of great help.

Moreover, Dan Yitian also left him a treasured Soul‑Refining Technique scroll, the Great Profound Fire‑Controlling Formation, and a Dou Saint Ruins containing exotic fire.

"Later, I'll help the Dan family again; I'm only giving them this one Flame‑Manipulating Technique scroll, and I feel a bit embarrassed about it."

Thinking of all the benefits Dan Yitian had brought him, Lin Feng mused.

During this period, he also investigated the Dan family's origins.

He discovered that before the Dan Tower was erected, there indeed had been a predecessor of extraordinary talent.

However, that Dan family predecessor vanished without a trace after leading a team out once; they could not find him dead or alive.

And the many strong cultivators who went out with him also disappeared completely.

What surprised Lin Feng most was that Dan Yitian's wife's family is the present Cao family.

Although he doesn't know how the Cao family became an alchemy clan, the clues suggest—

It seems that after Dan Yitian disappeared, the Dan family, seeking self‑preservation, offered many alchemy methods to the Cao family, which still had a few Dou Zun seated at that time.

After all, the Dan family back then was not like now; they had almost nothing of value.

The only thing that could impress was the alchemy inheritance Dan Yitian left behind.

It seems the Cao family leveraged those alchemy methods obtained from the Dan family to vigorously train alchemists.

Later they aligned with the founder of the Dan Tower, and only then did they advance step by step to the present.

While recalling, he extended his palm and brushed Dan Chen's silky hair.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly sensed something was off.

Immediately, he spun around and looked to his left.

He discovered that, dozens of meters away, an elderly figure with crane‑like hair and a childlike face had suddenly appeared.

"Heh, wanting to marry our Dan family's little princess isn't that easy."

Seeing his gaze directed at him, the elder lightly chuckled.

At that moment, Dan Chen also turned her head toward that side.

"Ah!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Dan Chen let out a startled cry; her previously crimson face flushed even deeper, and she hurriedly hid behind Lin Feng.

"No way."

Seeing the girl's reaction, Lin's mouth twitched, and he thought uncertainly in his heart.

At that moment, Dan Chen thrust out her half‑crimson pretty face toward the newcomer and weakly said, "Patriarch, why are you emerging so quickly this time—"

"Chen Er, you must have been dazzled by that kid, right? I said when I was in seclusion that it would be about half a year; isn't the time already up now?"

The Patriarch smiled, shook his head, and teased.

Dan Chen, hearing this, recalled that her own Patriarch had indeed said this half a year ago when he was about to enter seclusion.

In an instant, she felt an urge to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

All this time, she really had forgotten.

"Junior Lin Feng, I have seen you, senior."

Lin Feng, at that moment, also recovered, and immediately bowed, saying.

The Dan Family Patriarch, seeing him bow, gave a slight nod as a response, then continued: "You are that Lin Feng, right? I heard those guys mention you earlier; I was a bit skeptical, but I didn't expect your soul truly"

Having sensed Lin Feng's current soul power, the Dan Family Patriarch's face was also filled with astonishment.

As an Eighth‑rank, Eight‑Color Peak Alchemy Grandmaster, he naturally understood.

For someone his age, Lin Feng has already reached the Spiritual Realm of the soul, which signifies what.

Moreover, his Dou Qi strength has not lagged behind either.

At such a young age, he is already a half‑step Dou Zun‑rank cultivator.

"Your praise, senior, but I am merely lucky."

Hearing this, Lin Feng smiled calmly.

After all, his own people know his affairs; his strength does owe some credit to his talent.

But more so, he relies on the Burning Manual and those exotic fires.

Therefore, he would never dare to be arrogant.

"Lin Feng, someone from the Ye family is looking for you."

Just as he finished speaking, before the Dan Family Patriarch could reply, a voice suddenly came from afar.

Lin Feng turned toward the sound and saw an elder swooping toward them from a distance.

And that man also knew that he was an Elder of the Dan Tower responsible for managing the Xiao Dan Tower's liaison with the outside world.

"Elder, may I ask what business the Ye family has in seeking me?"

Upon hearing it was the Ye family, Lin Feng frowned slightly, then clasped his hands and asked.

"I don't know the details, but Ye Chong said that someone else is looking for you."

The elder shook his head and then relayed the information he knew.

"Someone else is looking for me?"

Hearing that, Lin Feng was startled and felt something odd.

"Alright, I've delivered the message, so I'll be on my way now."

After saying that, the elder immediately left the place.

"Thank you, Elder, for informing me."

Lin Feng, seeing this, also politely said a word.

The elder waved his hand as well, and his figure swiftly vanished into the sky.

Lin Feng pondered for a moment, then decided to go see what was happening.

What relieved him was that Ye Chong could come to find him, which indicated that the person was probably not an enemy.

He then looked at Danchen and said: "I'll go out first to see what's going on. You could lately practice the Nong Flame Decision; the transmuted fire it produces, though not as good as Exotic Fire, is far better than ordinary Beast Fire, making it a fine choice for both pill refining and fighting enemies."

"Hmm, Brother Lin Feng, the sooner you go, the sooner you return."

Danchen nodded his small head, then his jade‑like hand gently brushed the red scroll in his hand, and he smiled sweetly.

Non‑formal text.

Last night, after finishing two chapters, I wanted to nap, but ended up falling asleep; this is yesterday's third chapter, and I will post it tonight.
