Chapter 762: Xiao Yan Comes to the Door

There's no way, who made your man me so poor, with no other way to increase strength. If we don't use some method, it won't be long before Xiao Yan's strength surpasses ours, and then he'll come to our door to kill and loot.

Speaking of this, Lin Feng shrugged and continued: "What's more, those guys from the Hall are filthy rich and often bully the Pill Tower; taking a bit of their stuff is just revenge for the Pill Tower."

Hearing those self-righteous words, Cao Ying's eyes twitched involuntarily as she thought: "The Soul Hall is indeed bad, but you're not any better than those people."

However, thinking of what Xiao Yixian just said, the soul origin can be directly absorbed by cultivators and remarkably enhances the soul realm.

She also felt that this was indeed a good method.

After all, even with her exceptional talent, upon entering the Spirit Realm she felt her soul power increase, yet advancing became suddenly ten times harder.

In this situation, if she also possessed the Falling Heart Flame capable of refining the soul and obtaining origin power, she might very well do the same.

"Wait, those pills you gave me before—could it be that they boost soul power because they contain soul origin?"

Suddenly recalling those pills, Cao Ying swiftly turned her head to look at Lin Feng beside her.

"Exactly, aside from that, I don't have many heavenly treasures left that can boost soul power."

Hearing that, Lin Feng nodded and then replied.

Speaking of boosting soul power, Cao Ying sighed: "I never expected that in this Pill Tower, you're the one hiding the deepest."

"If those old-timers from the Xiao Dan Tower knew you alone possess several strange fires, while they've searched half their lives and found not a trace, they'd probably vomit blood on the spot."

Speaking of this, she frowned again, puzzled: "However, even though strange fire is very useful for us alchemists, even if one possesses a strand and can fuse another, the boost to pill refinement isn't that great, right?"

Thinking this, Cao Ying's brows knit tightly as she gazed curiously at Lin Feng.

After all, the process of subduing strange fire entails great risk.

But the gains from subduing multiple strange fires seem rather low.

By common sense, one should let other family members absorb the excess strange fire.

And if there's no family, or if family members aren't suited to absorb strange fire, wouldn't it be better to trade it for high-level cultivation techniques, combat skills, and pills?

"Knock knock~"

Before Lin Feng could speak, a knocking sound suddenly came from outside the room.

"Miss, young master, outside there's a young man named Xiao Yan saying he has important business; should we let him in?"

Next, a servant's voice from the Ye Estate drifted in.

"Xiao Yan?"

Hearing that, Lin Feng's eyes narrowed as he guessed the visitor's purpose.

As for the other four women, upon hearing Xiao Yan had come, their faces all showed a hint of surprise.

After all, Xiao Yan's relationship with that group appears superficially bad but is actually terribly awful.

In this situation, he actually came straight to our door.

After a brief thought, Xiao Yixian frowned slightly and said: "Husband, that Xiao Yan fellow probably wants to blackmail us with information about my Misfortune Poison Body."

"Misfortune Poison Body!!"

Hearing this news, Cao Ying was the first to lose composure before Lin Feng could speak.

Regarding that terrifying physique that makes people's faces change at the mention, she naturally had heard of it.

But she never expected that such a physique, only existing in books, would actually appear beside her!

"Stay calm, Xian Er's physique has long been under control; there's nothing to fear."

Seeing his surprised expression, Lin Feng waved his hand casually.

Next, he told the outside: "Take him to the reception hall; I'll be there shortly."

He had already guessed Xiao Yan's purpose roughly.

After thinking it over, he still decided to meet the other party.

"Yes."

The servant at the door, after respectfully acknowledging the order, immediately left.

After the servant left, Lin Feng rose and asked the four women: "Do you want to come along?"

"I'll go with you."

As soon as those words fell, Xiao Yixian, thinking it might concern her, stood up and replied.

As for the other three women, they shook their heads.

After all, they weren't interested in Xiao Yan, so naturally they had no desire to go.

Seeing this, Lin Feng let them do as they wished, while he took Xiao Yixian and headed out.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yan, led by a servant of the Ye Estate, arrived at a reception hall.

At that moment, his eyes held a hint of tension.

After all, whether he can retrieve something from Lin Feng this time depends on whether this information can be put to use.

But thinking back to when he was in Heijiaoyu, foolishly shouting for his master to obtain the Poison Pill Method to trade for Spirit Pill ingredients, he wanted to slap himself.

If he hadn't traded away that Poison Pill Method back then, he could now use it to threaten Lin Feng.

Thus he could easily reclaim the Walking Bone Spirit Cold Fire and Bone Flame Ring that Lin Feng had previously seized!

But now he doesn't know whether the one who helped his wife control the Misfortune Poison Body will make what choice.

"No problem; if they don't compromise, I'll spread this matter. If I can drive that white-clad woman out of Holy Pill City, I'll have a way to kill her and seize that unknown strange fire."

Xiao Yan comforted himself with a thought, then sat on the wooden chair, quietly awaiting Lin Feng's arrival.

After waiting a few minutes, a faint footstep sounded outside the door.

Soon, the footsteps drew nearer.

Not long after, a man and a woman appeared at the doorway.

"Speak, what do you want from me?"

Entering the reception hall, Lin Feng, unwilling to waste words with Xiao Yan, directly asked his purpose.

While speaking, he and Xiao Yixian also each walked over and sat on the wooden chair opposite Xiao Yan.

Seeing that the former didn't want to waste more words, Xiao Yan wasn't annoyed either.

After all, he didn't come here this time just to chat idly with Lin Feng.

Now the other party actually wants to get straight to the point, so he will just go along with the other's wish.

Thinking this, Xiao Yan gazed at the small medical immortal beside the former, sneered and said: "Your wife previously attacked me with poisonous battle qi; after our confirmation, that is the toxin unique to the Misfortune Poison Body. As a disciple of the Dan Tower, you secretly brought a time bomb into the Dan Tower—this is not good."

"After all, everyone knows the Misfortune Poison Body is extremely dangerous, with constant risk of eruption; you are putting the safety of everyone in Saint Dan City at risk!"
