Under the pitch-black night, the many snake-people in the city did not rest, but gathered outside a secret chamber.
However, in front of several figures, no one dared to speculate.
Lin Feng and Little Fairy Doctor, who were in front, also remained silent, both watching the secret chamber from which intense energy fluctuations were constantly emanating.
"Crack."
With a sound, the door of the secret chamber opened instantly, and a small figure appeared in front of Lin Feng and the others. However, her face was not as happy as expected, but rather looked depressed.
This scene made Lin Feng and the others a little strange.
"Zi Yan, what's wrong with you? Did you have a problem with your breakthrough?"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Zi Yan listlessly raised her head, her little mouth slightly pouting.
"Lin Feng, when are you going to refine a Transformation Pill for me? I really want to grow up."
Hearing Zi Yan's answer, Cai Lin chuckled and comforted her.
"Ziyan, it's alright. I like your petite and delicate appearance too."
Hearing Cailin's words, Ziyan raised her head slightly, and a little light returned to her lifeless eyes.
"It's alright, Ziyan. After a while, I'll refine my alchemy skills and, once I reach the seventh rank, I'll immediately refine a Transformation Pill for you so you can grow up."
"Hehehe, Lin Feng, I knew you were the best!"
Hearing Lin Feng's promise, Ziyan instantly beamed and jumped onto him.
"Ziyan, let me introduce you. This is Sister Little Fairy Doctor, also from Canaan Academy."
Supporting Ziyan, Lin Feng introduced her to Little Fairy Doctor. After hearing Lin Feng's introduction, Ziyan looked away. The three sisters then started chatting, leaving Lin Feng aside.
While the Snake-People City was abuzz with talk of Zi Yan's advancement to Dou Huang, in a slightly renowned city of the Jia Ma Empire, a voice that shook the entire universe rang out from the mouth of a young man.
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young man's potential!!!"
Inside the Xiao family's reception hall, a ferocious-looking young man shouted these words. The hall fell silent for a moment, then the Xiao family members erupted in deafening laughter.
"Enough, my son is so ambitious."
Under the suppression of Xiao Zhan's Great Dou Master aura, all sound vanished. He slowly rose, walked to Xiao Yan's side, and patted his shoulder.
"Yan'er, Father believes in you."
Afterwards, witnessed by everyone in the hall, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran made a three-year pact.
Behind the Xiao family mountain, the once high-spirited Xiao Yan lay dejectedly on the grass, then got up again, uttering his familiar national curse.
"Little boy, do you need power?"
An old voice rang in Xiao Yan's ears, followed by a familiar conversation. After several twists and turns, Xiao Yan finally became Yao Chen's disciple.
"Little Yanzi, you've made a three-year agreement with that girl Nalan Yanran. With ordinary methods, it'll be difficult to catch up with her in a short time. You'll need my special training."
Hearing that Yao Lao seemed to have a way for him to defeat Nalan Yanran in the three-year agreement, Xiao Yan hurriedly perked up and asked.
"Training for the Dou Qi stage, I naturally have a way, but it requires some start-up capital."
Yao Lao floated a slip of paper in front of Xiao Yan and disappeared, leaving only his voice echoing.
"Little Yanzi, you must find a way to buy the medicinal herbs listed here before I can help you refine the spiritual liquid to promote Dou Qi cultivation."
"Heavens!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan hurriedly glanced at the list on the paper, but his eyes glazed over. A figure flashed through his mind, "It seems I have no choice but to go find Xun'er!"
Three days later, Lin Feng, far away in the Snake-People's city, received this news. Looking at it, he sighed, "The gears of fate have finally begun to turn faster!"
Thinking this, Lin Feng began to plan. After breaking through with the help of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, he had reached the peak of the two-star Dou Huang level. After half a year of arduous training, although cultivation became increasingly difficult after reaching Dou Huang level, he again crossed two stars, reaching the mid-stage of the four-star Dou Huang level.
"Without any fortuitous encounters in the short term, it will be difficult to improve further." Lin Feng estimated his progress. To use Dou Huang-level Five Elements Pills and Dou Huang Pills for advancement, he needed to reach the peak of the six-star Dou Huang level. With normal arduous training, it would certainly be difficult to achieve this in less than a year.
"Since that's the case, why not take Little Fairy Doctor to the Cloud Empire first? With my current sealing technique, I can completely guarantee that Little Fairy Doctor's poison body won't go berserk once she reaches the Dou Huang realm."
Due to the lack of poison, even after half a year, Little Fairy Doctor has only barely reached the Dou Wang realm. Lin Feng decided to help her break through first.
When Lin Feng told the three girls, Little Fairy Doctor and Zi Yan, who were chatting idly, their reactions were somewhat different. Little Fairy Doctor naturally agreed with Lin Feng's idea, and Zi Yan was also very happy, as she had been quite bored.
However, Cai Lin's expression was hesitant. Seeing her like this, Lin Feng asked,
"Cai Lin, what's wrong?"
"Lin Feng, I think I might not be able to go with you."
"Sister Cai Lin, why is that? Haven't the Snake-People tribe settled down after half a year?" Upon hearing that Cai Lin couldn't go with them, Zi Yan was the first to become anxious.
"After receiving Lin Feng's pills, the elders are currently in seclusion, breaking through their limits. If I leave now, the Snake-People's high-level combat power will definitely be weakened. If the Emperor of the Monster Mountain Range launches an attack now, the Snake-People will be in danger of annihilation."
"Alright, then Sister Cai Lin must come with us next time."
"I'm sorry, Zi Yan," Cai Lin apologized to the unenthusiastic Zi Yan, then glanced apologetically at Little Fairy Doctor.
"It's alright, Sister Cai Lin. We can meet again when we return from the Cloud Empire." As
night fell, Little Fairy Doctor and Cai Lin tacitly escorted Lin Feng to Cai Lin's room.
"Lin Feng, I don't know how long it will be before you return this time. I... I'm a little reluctant to let you go." Inside the room, Lin Feng and Cai Lin lay on the large bed, Cai Lin nestled in Lin Feng's arms.
"Cai Lin, as long as we buy enough poison for Xian'er's cultivation, we will come back immediately." Lin Feng gently stroked Cai Lin's soft hair and said softly.
Suddenly, Cai Lin, whom Lin Feng was holding, rolled over and pinned him beneath her, her face flushed and alluring.
"Lin Feng, you belong to me tonight!"
