”Brother Lin Feng that crest on the carriage belongs to the Dan Clan, one of the Five Great Clans of the Pill Tower alongside my Ye Clan. The people inside must be our opponents for this trip.”

After spotting the emblem on that luxurious snow-white carriage soaring across the sky, Ye Xin Lan leaned close to Lin Feng’s ear and explained softly.

”The Dan Clan, huh. Didn’t expect to run into one of the other four clans the moment we arrived at Holy Pill City.”

Hearing this, Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly. He gazed at the Void Heavenly Horse Beast gradually disappearing at the horizon and muttered under his breath.

Of course, he knew of the Dan Clan, one of the Five Great Clans of the Pill Tower. But since he hadn’t recognized the symbol before, he hadn’t realized that carriage was theirs.

At this moment, Ye Xin Lan again leaned close and reminded him, ”Brother Lin Feng, the Dan Clan has always kept a low profile, and outsiders rarely know anything about their internal affairs.

But within the Pill Tower’s Five Great Clans, only the Dan Clan and Cao Clan still have ancestors living in the Small Pill Tower. Our Ye Clan, as well as the Bai and Qiu Clans, have long since declined, and we no longer have any elders capable of entering the Little Pill Tower.”

Hearing Ye Xin Lan’s words, Lin Feng’s eyes immediately tightened.

To enter the Small Pill Tower, one must at minimum be a seven-colored eighth-tier alchemist. Since people of the Dan and Cao Clans could enter, their alchemist ranks must have reached that level.

”No wonder in the original story, Cao Dan was so arrogant. Even knowing Xiao Yan had both Xiao Yixian and Tian Huo Zun Zhe, two Dou Zun experts at his side, he still acted so domineering. Just looking at the Cao Clan’s strength, they truly had no reason to fear ninety percent of Dou Zun powerhouses.”

Staring toward the horizon where the snow-white carriage had vanished, Lin Feng shook his head inwardly.

”If the Dan Clan is already here, then the other three clans should be arriving soon as well.”

Looking at that luxurious carriage, Ye Zhong frowned and muttered, ”I wonder who the Dan Clan will send to participate in this year’s assessment?”

”Hehe, Grand Elder Ye Zhong, don’t worry. As long as they don’t send out an eighth-tier alchemist, I won’t be afraid.”

Hearing the worry in Ye Zhong’s tone, Lin Feng turned back with a light smile.

At those words, Ye Zhong’s brows finally relaxed. He smiled, ”That’s true. With Mister Lin Feng’s soul power, I fear there are almost no rivals beneath the Spirit Realm.”

Looking at Lin Feng, who carried a hint of unique spirit brilliance, the worry in Ye Zhong’s heart dissipated.

The man’s soul power had already stepped half a foot into the Spirit Realm, and his alchemy was just as refined, leaving almost no shortcomings. Unless the other clans all sent true eighth-tier alchemists into the assessment, with Lin Feng’s abilities, there was no one to fear.

”Come, let’s find a place to rest for now. Tomorrow we’ll head to the Pill Tower’s testing assembly, get you a ranking badge, and then think about the assessment itself.”

With his mood lightened, Ye Zhong smiled and addressed Lin Feng and the others.

Saying this, Ye Zhong turned and flew toward the edge of the crimson plaza. Seeing this, Lin Feng took the hands of Ye Xin Lan and Xiao Yixian, following right behind him.

The three followed Ye Zhong, circling through the outer districts of Holy Pill City for nearly half an hour before finally descending near the southern region.

The place they landed was a fairly spacious courtyard. However, the courtyard was clearly old and dilapidated, looking as though it hadn’t seen signs of life for many years.

On the gate above hung a wooden plaque.

Two barely discernible characters were carved into it: ”Ye Courtyard.”

”This was once one of the Ye Clan’s properties. But after our clan’s downfall, we no longer had the face to remain in Holy Pill City, and no one has tended to this place since. Still, as a temporary rest stop, it’s not a bad choice.”

Looking at the courtyard, Ye Zhong turned to Lin Feng with a sigh.

For staying here, Lin Feng and Xiao Yixian had no objections. After all, both of them had clawed their way up step by step from the very bottom.

When it came to living conditions, they weren’t particularly demanding. And though Ye Courtyard looked rather old and run-down, it had the advantage of being secluded.

Naturally, they had no complaints.

”Hehe, since you two have no objections, and it’s already getting late, let’s all rest for now. Tomorrow we have proper business to attend to.”

Seeing they had no issues, Ye Zhong let out a small sigh of relief, then spoke to the group.

After that, everyone found their own rooms to stay in. Of course, Lin Feng was naturally pulled into the same room by Xiao Yixian.

”Creak~”

The next morning, as the sun slowly rose, a refreshed Lin Feng and the rosy-cheeked Xiao Yixian pushed open the door and walked out together.

”Mister Lin Feng, since you’re awake, shall we head out?”

As they stepped outside, an old voice rang from the courtyard gate. Ye Zhong appeared there, smiling at the pair.

”Uh, sure. But Grand Elder Ye Zhong, just call me Lin Feng from now on, no need to be so formal.”

Thinking about everything between himself and Ye Xin Lan, Lin Feng scratched his head awkwardly.

After all, he had already enjoyed most of her body, leaving only the final step undone. Now, hearing the elder still address him so formally, it made him feel a little embarrassed.

At those words, a trace of joy flashed across Ye Zhong’s aged face. So his granddaughter had been rather capable after all—Lin Feng was already changing the way he was addressed.

If she pushed just a little further and bore him a son or daughter, wouldn’t the Ye Clan’s bond with him become even stronger?

At this thought, Ye Zhong decided he would find some time to sit down with his granddaughter. He’d encourage her to take the initiative and secure Lin Feng as soon as possible.

Beside them, Ye Xin Lan’s fair cheeks immediately flushed pink. Because of her shyness, her smooth jade-like legs twisted restlessly.

”It’s getting late, we should be going.”

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yixian’s pretty, rosy face showed a trace of jealousy as she cut in.

”Yes, yes, I’ll first take you to the Pill Tower’s testing site to get you an official ranking badge, so things will be easier afterward.”

Noticing that Xiao Yixian wasn’t particularly happy, Ye Zhong quickly went along with her words.

After all, this woman, who looked so delicate, was in truth a genuine Dou Zun powerhouse. If she were angered, life would not be easy for the Ye Clan.

With that, he turned and walked out of Ye Courtyard. Lin Feng, seeing this, took the hands of both Xiao Yixian and Ye Xin Lan, following after him.

Xiao Yixian didn’t say anything at this.

After all, she had already accepted the matter between Lin Feng and Ye Xin Lan, so there was nothing left for her to object to.

Leaving Ye Courtyard, Lin Feng walked hand in hand with the two women, following behind Ye Zhong for nearly ten minutes before they stopped outside an ancient stone tower on the outer edge of Holy Pill City.
