Chapter 756: The Cao Family Patriarch's Reminder

"Senior, keep it safe."

Looking at the Cao family patriarch whose eyes were about to bulge out, Lin Feng chuckled lightly.

Hearing that, he immediately caught on, and as he took the jade box, patted Lin Feng's shoulder and said, "You don't have to keep calling me senior; just call me father‑in‑law."

Having said that, he quickly took the jade box and exclaimed, "With this Bodhi seed we can have the Old Ancestor refine a Bodhi pill for him to take. Now the Cao family can once again produce a Saint‑level strongman!"

Although this Bodhi seed can only increase the chance of a Dou Zun breaking through to half‑Saint.

But this already made the Cao family patriarch unable to control his excitement.

After all, in Dou Qi cultivation, as one's strength rises, the gaps between subsequent realms become unimaginable to ordinary people.

If the Cao family can produce a half‑Saint strongman, their status will surge again.

By then, the three Pill Tower giants would pose no threat to them at all!

Thinking of that, the Cao family patriarch hurriedly closed the jade box carefully and stored the item in his own pendant.

This small thing is the key to whether the Cao family can produce a half‑Saint strongman.

Even if something happens to him, this Bodhi seed must not suffer any mishap.

However, after hearing her father's words, Cao Ying, standing nearby,

suddenly stretched out her small hand and slapped the patriarch's back hard, complaining, "You guy, you just love to sell off daughters!"

"You brat, it's not selling, it's marrying!"

Hearing that, the Cao family patriarch instantly rebutted, then muttered, "I've raised you for so many years, gave you the best of everything, spent so much on you, and you still won't let me recover any of the costs."

However, although his voice was very low, Cao Ying, whose soul power was strong, heard it crystal clear.

Immediately after, she retorted, "You old man, were you infected by Lin Feng? How come your skin has become as thick as his now."

Hearing that, Lin Feng, who was lying on the gun for no reason, twitched the corner of his mouth a few times.

He has always been known for honesty and reliability; how could he be like Cao Ying says?

He then began, "Senior…"

Just as he opened his mouth, Lin Feng saw the patriarch's expression change, and he quickly corrected himself, "Father‑in‑law, I have other matters, so I can't stay here longer; I'll be heading back to Saint Dan City shortly."

"Return to Saint Dan City?"

Hearing that, Cao Ying's father frowned in surprise, then frowned further and asked, "Must we leave?"

"That's right."

Lin Feng nodded, his expression tinged with helplessness.

After all, he didn't know on which day Xiao Yan would attempt to rescue the Medicine Dust.

Therefore, he could only prepare as quickly as possible.

That way, when Xiao Yan goes to rescue his teacher, he can calmly carry out his own plan.

"Alright then, since you have business, I won't try to keep you."

Seeing Lin Feng seemed a bit anxious, Cao Ying's father stopped the chatter and nodded directly.

"I happen to be heading to Saint Dan City as well, so I'll go with you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Ying's delicate voice rang out in the room.

Hearing that, the Cao family patriarch's eyes lit up, and he laughed, "Exactly, since Ying'er is also going to Saint Dan City, and you happen to be on the same road, let's go together."

"Fine."

Regarding the proposal, Lin Feng didn't refuse, and nodded in agreement.

Seeing his agreement, Cao Ying immediately looked at Lin Feng and smiled sweetly, "Since that's the case, wait for me a moment; I'll go pack some luggage."

Having said that, she stepped lightly like a lotus and walked toward the doorway.

"Lin Feng, you must stay vigilant; your current relationship with the three Pill Tower giants is a stalemate. Though in Saint Dan City Xuan Kongzi and the others can't intervene, with your talent they will certainly feel immense pressure and might act rashly."

After Cao Ying disappeared outside the room, the Cao family patriarch turned his head toward Lin Feng and said.

"Father‑in‑law, rest assured, I'm constantly on guard against those three. When the time comes, I'll settle the scores with them together."

As for Xuan Kongzi and the others who have been operating in the Pill Realm for years, Lin Feng naturally could not afford to be careless.

Even if he didn't mention it, he would still keep constant vigilance over those few.

You see, even his breakthrough to Dou Zun was done quietly in an uninhabited place, without Xuan Kongzi and the others knowing.

"Just be aware yourself; those three have been joining the Pill Tower since they were young. Over the years they've built extensive connections in the Pill Realm, so they dare not act against you now, mainly fearing your status as a junior Pill Tower disciple."

"But your current rate of growth far surpasses everyone's expectations. Under such heavy pressure, I fear that your status as a junior Pill Tower disciple and a candidate for Pill Tower giant will lose its deterrent power over them. I see that the day you completely break apart won't be far off."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng's expression also turned very serious.

In his heart, he vaguely guessed that his rapid growth…

It will inevitably cast a deathly cloud over the heads of the three Pill Tower giants, making them restless day and night.

Therefore, as long as those few don't want to die, they will have to risk trying to eliminate this dangerous source—him.

"However, regarding your feud with Xuan Kongzi and the others, I don't know why, but I always feel that the reason he hasn't caused you trouble now is because he's waiting for something."

At this moment, the Cao family patriarch's puzzled voice rang again in the quiet room.

He lowered his head to ponder for a while, then looked back at Lin Feng, his tone serious: "When I chatted with him before and mentioned you, he deliberately concealed his emotions, yet I could still see a hint of confidence in his expression. It seemed as if he could resolve you quickly. I think you should be cautious in the coming days."

"Waiting. Confidence can defeat me?"

Hearing this, Lin Feng let out a soft snort, his mind instantly alert.

After all, based on what he saw and his knowledge from the original work, Xuan Kongzi is not the type who spouts nonsense.

If, as the Cao family patriarch said, the other party is confident they can eliminate him.

Then it's highly likely that Xuan Kongzi has thought of some method, or has found a new strongman to deal with him!

"Could it be that even now, someone is still willing to help the three giants deal with me?"

He hadn't expected that even after displaying such talent at the Pill Assembly, someone would still be willing to help Xuan Kongzi and Xiao Yan deal with him.

However, he quickly thought of Yao Chen, who was still imprisoned by the Soul Hall.
