"Could it be that Xuan Kongzi is planning to wait until Xiao Yan rescues Yao Chen, then let him rely on his own strength and alchemy skill to deal with me?"
For a moment, the only possibility Lin Feng could think of was Yao Chen, the one Xiao Yan was preparing to save.
After all, with his current status as both a disciple of the Small Pill Tower and a candidate for a Pill Tower Leader, looking across the entire Central Plains, aside from those annoying yet undeniably powerful Ancient Clans, there weren't many who would dare provoke him.
If the three Pill Tower Leaders intended for Xiao Yan to secretly revive Yao Chen, then find an opportunity when he was caught off guard and assassinate him, the success rate and safety level of that plan would be quite high.
After all, in the eyes of the outside world, Yao Chen being captured by Hall of Souls meant he was very likely already dead. If a "dead person" suddenly appeared and killed him, then conveniently delivered his body to another faction, such as Hall of Souls...
As long as Xuan Kongzi and the others created the right timing and made sure they weren't present, they could wash their hands clean of suspicion. As for Yao Chen, in others' eyes, he was already dead. Who would even think of him?
"These three Pill Tower old foxes really are ruthless. To think they'd come up with something like this. As long as they prepare the materials well during Yao Chen's revival and push his strength close to his original realm, then with a peak Nine-Change Dou Zun powerhouse dealing with me, a mere One-star Dou Zun, killing me would be effortless."
Thinking to this point, Lin Feng sucked in a cold breath as a chill ran down his spine.
"As expected… you can't underestimate anyone. Otherwise, you really might get overturned in a dirty ditch."
But if the three Pill Tower Leaders could hear his thoughts right now, they would definitely be speechless. Though they might agree that the idea sounded reasonable. At this moment, Lin Feng had no idea his thoughts had completely gone off track.
How could he know Xuan Kongzi and the others never thought that far? They simply contacted Yao Chen's old lover in Flower Sect… and asked her to find a chance to kill him.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Father-in-law, thank you for the reminder. I'll stay cautious from now on and avoid giving them any opening."
The Cao Clan's Clan Leader waved his hand casually and responded, "Just take care. If the situation becomes too dangerous, stay inside the Small Pill Tower for now. You're still young. Even if you want revenge, there's no need to rush."
"And during this period, I'll summon the ancestor back. Once he refines this Bodhisattva Seed into a Bodhisattva Pill and takes it, he may be able to break through to Ban Sheng. When that happens, you won't need to fear those Pill Tower Leaders."
"Father-in-law, rest assured. I'm not impulsive. I won't do something as foolish as smashing an egg against a rock."
Lin Feng said with a relaxed smile. However, although his expression was casual, anxiety still simmered in his heart.
After all, if nothing changed, in just a few years Hun Tiandi would begin his plan to ascend to Dou Di. If Lin Feng did not have enough strength by then, once Hun Tiandi succeeded, he would never have another chance to rise.
Even though those below Dou Di could not sense the inheritance left behind by Tuo She Ancient God. He didn't dare assume that Hun Tiandi still wouldn't be able to sense it after ascending. Once he found the legacy, Lin Feng could guarantee with his life…
Based on Hun Tiandi's personality shown in the original story, if he could seize it, he would. If he couldn't, he would destroy it. And if even that wasn't possible, he would definitely lay down his own methods to prevent anyone else from obtaining it.
As for the Dou Qi Continent… it would likely become a Hun Clan breeding ground, existing solely to serve his race.
"Alright, I've packed my belongings. Let's go."
Just as Lin Feng was zoning out, Cao Ying, who had left earlier, suddenly returned. Not only that, but she had clearly gone to dress herself up.
Her outfit had been changed into a new long dress of red and white, and even her long, smooth jade-like legs were now wrapped in dark-red stockings, each leg covered by one.
"How is it, does it look good?"
Noticing Lin Feng's gaze land on her, Cao Ying slightly lifted her soft pink lips into a smile, spun lightly in place, and asked.
"Looks good."
Since an elder was still present, Lin Feng didn't say anything inappropriate. He simply replied with a smile. Immediately after, he shifted his gaze back to the Cao Clan's Clan Leader and cupped his hands respectfully.
"Father-in-law, we'll take our leave now."
Hearing that form of address, Cao Ying couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. A faint blush slowly spread across her delicate face.
"Alright, be careful on the road."
The Clan Leader didn't say much more, only offered a simple reminder.
"Yes, understood."
Lin Feng nodded lightly, then turned to Cao Ying.
"We're leaving."
As he spoke, he naturally reached out and gently took her soft, warm hand, leading her toward the door.
Under the gaze of the Cao Clan's Clan Leader, the two gradually disappeared from sight. After leaving the Cao Clan Estate, Lin Feng brought Cao Ying toward the entrance of the space wormhole within the city.
Moments later, the two of them flew directly into the slowly rotating black vortex.
Of course, because Cao Ying was with him, Lin Feng received countless looks filled with envy, jealousy and hate along the way. After all, there weren't many people in this city who didn't recognize Cao Ying, one of the two goddesses of the Pill Tower.
But now, that same goddess was holding hands with a stranger, walking confidently and leisurely through the streets. How could this scene not make all those… admirers — cough, simps furious?
Naturally, Lin Feng didn't have time to care about those people. As long as they didn't make a move, he couldn't be bothered with them. As for those who let their hot blood and stupidity guide them and rushed forward looking for trouble — they were already lying on the ground.
Of course, Lin Feng wouldn't go as far as killing them. He merely ensured they would spend a little time resting comfortably in a hospital bed.
Inside the seemingly endless silver passage, a gorgeously decorated space vessel — around sixty to seventy meters long and twenty-three meters wide — shot forward tirelessly.
Perhaps due to its extreme speed, a series of afterimages stretched behind it, fading one after another into the spatial tunnel. Despite moving at such terrifying velocity, the ship remained unbelievably stable, without the slightest vibration.
In fact, it was shockingly smooth, almost unnatural.
Inside the ship's largest main cabin, Cao Ying sat beside a tea table. Her crimson, bewitching eyes looked toward the figure across from her as she asked with a smile.
"That Bodhisattva Pill of yours — did you give it to the Dan Clan already?"
As she spoke, her fair and slender fingers continued spinning a porcelain teacup between them, the cup still containing a small amount of tea.
