Chapter 2421 - 2400: Height!
"The Divine King is a watershed for cultivators, and less than one in ten thousand can break through. It can be said that worldwide, those who can become Divine Kings are truly exceptional individuals. For most people, breaking through to the Qiankun Mirror to become a Divine King Powerhouse is already a stroke of great fortune. Yet, here you are, unsatisfied with taking several centuries to achieve it!" Elder Chu chuckled as he spoke, noticing Tao Tao’s apparent dissatisfaction with the time it took.
But as he was speaking, he caught sight of Lin Feng, and then slapped his forehead, continuing with a smile: "But, girl, with Taoist Friend Lin helping you, I estimate you won’t take that long. Taoist Friend Lin surely won’t let you drag on for such a lengthy period!"
Upon hearing Elder Chu’s words, Tao Tao’s eyes immediately lit up. She turned to look at Lin Feng, her eyes full of vitality. Indeed, as Elder Chu said, with Lin Feng around, she couldn’t possibly be like the others; she believed that Lin Feng definitely had a way to help her break through to the Qiankun Mirror.
Seeing Tao Tao’s gaze, Lin Feng naturally understood her meaning and immediately replied with a smile: "Don’t worry, it’s only a matter of time, and it shouldn’t take too long."
These words were not casually spoken by Lin Feng. The previous battle with Zhu Tianjin gave him direct insight into the domain of Divine King Powerhouses, and now that he could fly, he planned to take some time to carefully ponder it, potentially guiding Tao Tao to a clear path!
Tao Tao’s face was instantly filled with joy upon hearing this, longing for the ability to fly in the sky, where the sky is truly vast, representing genuine freedom!
However, Elder Chu’s eyes widened again, as if struck by lightning, staring at Lin Feng in shock: "Taoist Friend Lin, you... did you just say that you can help Miss Tao Tao break through in this short period?"
For Elder Chu, Lin Feng’s words were truly shocking. In the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm, everyone knew that becoming a Divine King Realm was something no one could assist with. Yet, Lin Feng said such things, indicating he had a special method to help Tao Tao break through. How could that be possible, even if Lin Feng was extraordinarily talented, accomplishing such a feat seemed impossible!
"I have some ideas, but they haven’t been fully deliberated. The exact situation is still uncertain." Lin Feng waved his hand in response, then added: "Please keep this matter confidential, Elder Chu. I don’t want to be harassed by other Divine Origin Realm powerhouses."
Elder Chu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, yet his heart remained shaken. Although Lin Feng’s response wasn’t definitive, given Elder Chu’s understanding of Lin Feng, he believed what others couldn’t achieve, Lin Feng might really manage. Hearing Lin Feng’s latter words, he promptly said: "Rest assured, Taoist Friend Lin, I know the importance of this."
As the conversation unfolded, Elder Chu suddenly remembered the matter of elixirs. Smiling at Lin Feng, he said: "Taoist Friend Lin, do you happen to have time? Recently, the Flawless Quality Elixirs have all been sold out. Not only the Myriad Gods Tower wants to purchase, but many people from other cities are also coming to buy in bulk. What do you think of this..."
"Well, it’s not much of a bother for today. I’ll head to the auction house tomorrow to make elixirs. Everything else remains the old arrangement." Lin Feng responded with a smile, finding alchemy merely a matter of taking some time. Since he was back, he wouldn’t neglect his old trade, but he wanted to handle matters at the Holy Pill Pavilion first.
"Of course, of course!" Elder Chu replied with a smile, understanding that Lin Feng had just returned and had other matters to attend to, so he got up to bid farewell: "Taoist Friend Lin, I’m heading to the auction house now, see you tomorrow."
Lin Feng didn’t hold him back, smilingly gestured for him to leave, and then escorted Elder Chu out of the Holy Pill Pavilion.
After sending off Elder Chu from the Holy Pill Pavilion, Lin Feng returned to the backyard, directly summoning Li Changsong and San’er to inquire about the auction house’s situation. Seeing this, Tao Tao took Guoguo to play in the small pavilion in the backyard.
"How has the Holy Pill Pavilion been operating during this period?" Lin Feng asked Li Changsong and San’er as he looked at them.
"Master, everything is normal with the Holy Pill Pavilion’s operations. Since the Alchemy Pavilion reopened, no troublemakers have dared to come here. Elder Chu’s supply is very stable, and the pavilion’s income has been quite steady, with a monthly net profit of around 800,000 Yuan Stones. Following your instructions, I’ve been delivering the Yuan Stones to Elder Chu for safekeeping every day!"
Li Changsong replied promptly, though after some thought, he continued a bit sheepishly: "Master, our pavilion’s business is so good that it’s significantly impacting the other alchemy workshops in the city. So to avoid conflicts with them, I took it upon myself to halt the sale of some low-profit elixirs, giving other workshops some business."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng smiled lightly and said to Li Changsong: "It’s alright, your arrangement works well."
Relieved that Lin Feng wasn’t displeased, Li Changsong felt reassured, and at this point, San’er stepped forward to report to Lin Feng.
"Owner, over the past year or so, folks from the Divine Medicine Sect have come several times hoping to invite you for a visit, but seeing as you weren’t around, they left. Additionally, some unknown individuals suddenly showed up at our shop wanting to buy a large number of Flawless Quality Elixirs. After discussing with Changsong, we decided to limit the daily sale of these elixirs to prevent them from depleting within the pavilion and harming our reputation." San’er was also slightly nervous, uncertain if their actions were appropriate.
"Yes, this arrangement is good." Lin Feng nodded with a smile. In these circumstances, it indeed should be handled this way. If he were in Xucheng, it wouldn’t matter much, but since he had left only a limited supply of Flawless Quality Elixirs at the Holy Pill Pavilion, it made sense to wait for his return before adjusting the arrangement further.
"How about other aspects?"
"The shop has been extremely busy, so we hired two more assistants."
"Any theft issues?"
"There were attempts, but they failed, as the formations you set up defeated them."
"Hmm, is there anyone special?"
...
After chatting with Li Changsong and San’er about other matters and learning about the Holy Pill Pavilion’s developments over the past year, Lin Feng had Li Changsong and San’er go back to their work. He then turned and entered the small building in the backyard, where he saw Tao Tao and Guoguo playing joyfully!
"Sister Tao Tao, I’m here!"
"Little Guoguo, watch out, I’m going to catch you!"
"You can’t catch me, hahaha..."
"Got you! Now I’m going to tickle you!"
"No... no, I’m scared... hahaha..."
...
The air was filled with laughter and joy, bringing a smile to Lin Feng’s face. Over the past year, Tao Tao had been rather bored, so getting to see Guoguo and laugh like this was refreshing. Feeling cheerful, Lin Feng walked over to join Tao Tao and Guoguo.
"Guoguo, let’s go, Brother Lin will take you shopping!" Lin Feng said with a smile, noticing that Guoguo’s clothes were a bit small. He planned to take Guoguo out for some delicious food and buy her a nice fitting outfit.
"Great, great!" Guoguo cheered happily upon hearing Lin Feng’s words. She usually didn’t have the chance to go out to play while in the Alchemy Pavilion, so now that she could, how could she not be excited?
Lin Feng gestured for them to set off, and Guoguo happily bounced along, while Tao Tao watched Lin Feng from behind with shining eyes, smiling as she followed.
Soon, the three of them were on the street. Guoguo was full of joy, looking around as they walked. Lin Feng and Tao Tao stood together, allowing Guoguo to bounce and take in all the excitement around her.
Before long, they reached a small stall selling trinkets on the side of the street. Guoguo’s eyes were instantly drawn to a particularly unique doll, but without money, she could only tear herself away and leave.
Seeing Guoguo’s reluctant gaze, Lin Feng smiled and went directly to the stall to buy the doll, then followed behind Guoguo with Tao Tao, both smiling.
Along the way, Guoguo saw many things she liked but knew they weren’t hers, so she just admired them, planning to ask her father for some money to buy them when she got back.
As dusk began to fall, they passed by a restaurant. Lin Feng stopped Guoguo from continuing to stroll around and led her and Tao Tao inside.
It’s undeniable that Lin Feng, accompanied by one big and one small beauty, was quite attention-grabbing. Moreover, Tao Tao herself was an extraordinary beauty, immediately drawing the gaze of other patrons in the restaurant, who began to speculate about who this stunning woman could be and why she was so beautiful!
Sensing the attention, Lin Feng simply smiled and shook his head, then asked the waiter for a private room, as he didn’t want their meal to be disturbed despite not minding the attention.
The shop assistant, understanding the situation, promptly led Lin Feng, Tao Tao, and Guoguo upstairs to a private room.
After ordering some signature dishes and drinks, the assistant left, and the three stood by the window, gazing at the outside scenery.
As the lights began to shine, the streets remained bustling with people, and vendors moved through the crowds. Many people wandered aimlessly, laughter occasionally ringing out, indicating just how lively the place was.
"Brother Lin, this place is so lively, how come I never noticed it before?" Guoguo asked Lin Feng while gazing outside.
"That’s because you’ve never looked at it from here. Before, you and your father didn’t see it from this perspective. When you grow up, you’ll understand." Lin Feng said with a smile, gently patting Guoguo’s head, uttering some rather vague words.
Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Tao Tao smiled without saying anything, thinking it was a bit early for Guoguo to grasp such things. Meanwhile, Guoguo looked at Lin Feng with a puzzled expression, not comprehending his meaning. Just as she was about to ask, she suddenly noticed a doll in Lin Feng’s hand, her eyes widening in surprise!
