Lin Feng rested in Heaven Saint City for a day before he planned to head to Gentleman City. Lin Feng was very clear about his situation. The Divine Sect and the Dugu family would definitely want to get rid of him.
But so what? They could just come. It was still unknown who would win.
Killing Dugu Xuan was naturally a satisfying thing. The only thing that Lin Feng felt a little regretful was that the mysterious blacksmith had left Heaven Saint City. His wish to upgrade the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda to a Dao Artifact had temporarily fallen through.
He could only wait for the blacksmith to return before looking for her.
…
Gentleman City, one of the ten great ancient capitals of the Divine Land in the East County. It was very lively during this period of time, and many Spirit Formation Masters had come to Gentleman City.
These Spirit Formation Masters were all here for the City Lord of Gentleman City, Han Zihua.
Han Zihua's wife did not have long to live.
On the other hand, Han Zihua loved his wife deeply.
He took out a 100,000-year-old sacred medicine passed down by his ancestors as a reward.
He hoped that someone could refine a Life-prolonging Pill so that his wife could live.
A 100,000-year-old sacred medicine had a fatal attraction to anyone, let alone an alchemist.
Many alchemists flocked over.
However, ordinary life-prolonging pills could not have any effect on Han Zihua's wife.
The City Lord's Mansion.
In a room made of ice, cold air lingered.
On the ice bed lay a beautiful woman who looked like she had walked out of a painting.
Her eyes were closed, and she did not move at all. Her breathing was very weak.
Han Zihua sat on the edge of the bed, tired and sad.
This woman was Han Zihua's wife, Ruo Xi. Back then, in order to save Han Zihua, her meridians, internal organs, and soul were shattered. Even the sacred medicine could not cure her.
Ruo Xi hung on to her last breath and did not leave.
"Dugu Aotian, if it weren't for you, Lin Feng might have already come to fulfill his promise. If Ruo Xi dies, even if I have to risk my life, I will tear you into pieces."
Han Zihua's eyes revealed a hateful expression.
Back then, he had a five-year agreement with Lin Feng.
Within five years, Lin Feng would break through to the Earth Stage and help him refine the Primordial Meridian Replenishing Pill.
Han Zihua thought that his wife could live for a hundred years.
This way, he would be able to find a way to save his wife within a hundred years.
However, they never thought that Dugu Aotian would attack the Lin family.
Later, Ao Tian Ancient Capital issued a bounty on Lin Feng.
In Han Zihua's view, it was very likely that Lin Feng had already died in the hands of the Dugu Clan.
After all, Lin Feng was just a young man. How could he avoid being wanted by the Dugu Clan?
He wanted to give his wife Ruo Xi a chance to live another hundred years.
It was severed just like that.
Towards Dugu Aotian who caused all of this, Han Zihua's hatred also overflowed to the heavens.
"If Lin Feng hadn't died, he would have come to Gentlemen's City by now, but there are no ifs in this world."
Han Zihua admired Lin Feng very much. She still remembered the handsome face of that talented, gentle, and tenacious young man.
Now that he thought of that young man, he could only sigh.
"Sir, more than ten alchemists have arrived. They're already waiting in the living room." The voice of the guard commander came from outside.
Han Zihua already did not know how many alchemists he had received, but none of them had any real ability.
Even if there were some alchemists with decent skills, they still couldn't refine a pill that could prolong his wife's life.
Han Zihua said tiredly, "Arrange for them to rest for a day, then prepare to refine the pill."
"Yes, sir."
The guard commander acknowledged and then retreated.
…
Lin Feng walked out of Gentlemen's City's teleportation portal.
Gentlemen's City was one of the ten great ancient cities in the East County of the Divine Prefecture, so it was naturally very lively.
"Back then, I had a five-year agreement with Senior Han Zihua. Now, there are still a few months until the agreement. I finally arrived early."
Lin Feng let out a long breath.
Five years ago, Han Zihua's wife was about to die.
It was the fire qilin's Mysterious Sky Protection Pill that had extended Han Zihua's wife's life by five years.
Now that Lin Feng had come, he had two goals.
The first was to fulfill the agreement back then and refine a pill to prolong Han Zihua's wife's life.
The second was to rope in Han Zihua so that when the time came, they could attack Ao Tian Ancient Capital together.
…
Lin Feng did not waste any time. He went straight to the City Lord's residence.
The City Lord's residence was very imposing and heavily guarded.
Rumble!
In the distance, a strange beast was rushing over.
This was a Fire Demon Beast, a ferocious creature that was shaped like a Taowu. Its thick and solid limbs were galloping about, surrounded by the power of flames.
A dozen alchemists were sitting cross-legged on the back of a fire magical beast.
In the end, they stopped in front of the City Lord's residence.
"Fire magical beasts? Are those people from the Fire Valley?" Someone recognized the identity of the newcomer and immediately cried out in alarm.
The Fire Valley was an ancient organization, one of the top ten organizations in the seventy-two prefectures.
It was different from the other organizations in the seventy-two prefectures.
That was because the Fire Valley trained alchemists.
Every disciple of the Fire Valley was an alchemist.
Alchemists had a high status in the Tianwu Continent, so the Fire Valley's status was naturally higher than the other organizations.
"Huo Qianyun, that's the Hall Master of the Fire Valley's Alchemy Hall, right? It's said that his alchemy skills are unfathomable. It's said that the Alchemist Guild also wants to recruit Huo Qianyun and appoint him as the president of Youzhou's Alchemist Guild. "
Someone pointed at a man wearing a flaming robe and said.
That man looked to be in his thirties, and his every movement carried an air of superiority and arrogance.
The revered status of alchemists made them have a feeling of being a cut above others no matter where they went.
Lin Feng glanced at the people from the Fire Valley and looked away. When he arrived at the entrance of the City Lord's residence, he was stopped by the guards.
"Do not barge into the City Lord's residence." The guard said solemnly.
Lin Feng flicked his finger.
A faint purple flame danced on his fingertip.
"So it's Lord Alchemist."
When the guards saw that Lin Feng was an alchemist, they looked at him respectfully.
"Pfft … faint purple flame. That should be the 936th Earthfire, the Purple Ethereal Fire, right?"
At that moment, a mocking voice sounded.
Lin Feng looked over and saw a dozen alchemists walking over. They were the alchemists from the Fire Valley, and the one who had spoken was a young alchemist in his twenties.
The young alchemist glanced at Lin Feng disdainfully and said, "City Lord Han has offered such a huge bounty, so any kind of trash dares to come to Gentlemen's City to join in the fun. As City Lord Han's guards, you should keep your eyes open. How can someone who can refine a trash flame like the Purple Ethereal Fire be an alchemist? Most of them are swindlers. Letting them in will only waste City Lord Han's time. "
Lin Feng said indifferently, "Looks like I didn't check the almanac before leaving. Otherwise, why would I hear wild dogs barking in broad daylight?"
The alchemist's expression sank, and he looked coldly at Lin Feng. "Kid, are you courting death? Do you believe that I can kill you with a flick of my finger? "
At that moment, a female alchemist said, "Senior Brother Zhuoyan, why get angry over such a lowly person's words? Wouldn't that be beneath our status? "
