Chapter 2686: Conversation with Tianhai

Chang Tianjie glared with bloodshot eyes, roaring, "Come!"

Immediately, four guards appeared in front of Chang Tianjie. He instructed them, "Investigate for me! Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground in Lin City, find the murderer who killed my son. I want to kill him with my own hands."

As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, wishing he could immediately execute the enemy himself. Thinking of this, he also blamed himself greatly. If he hadn’t indulged his son, allowing him to venture into Lin City, they wouldn’t have suffered such a tragic fate of the elderly burying the young. But regardless of who his son offended, he refused to believe anyone would disregard the Myriad Heavens Divine Cult and dare to lay such a vicious hand on his son. He must understand what truly happened and avenge his son.

"Yes!" The four guards, having received their orders, immediately rose and left.

As the four guards left, the entire room exploded; the walls flew out in an instant, and the ground shook violently. Dust flew everywhere, and Chang Tianjie clenched his fists, let out a roar, and continued to weep alone in the room...

Lin Feng returned to the Holy Pill Pavilion. Tao Tao and Gu Tianhai immediately came to greet him, Tao Tao looked at Lin Feng worriedly and asked, "Brother Lin, are you okay?"

"I’m fine. I killed him." Lin Feng replied calmly.

Upon hearing this, the two guards who came with Chang Chuang were utterly shocked. Seeing Chang Chuang’s absence, they had no choice but to believe it was true. They immediately ran back to Feng Changhai to report. Although they were sent by Feng Changhai to be with Chang Chuang, with Chang Chuang dead, they couldn’t escape the repercussions.

Seeing Lin Feng’s demeanor, Tao Tao and Gu Tianhai didn’t say much more. Lin Feng then approached Gu Tianhai and said, "Come with me, I have something to assign to you."

Lin Feng and Gu Tianhai then went to the study room, closed the door, and Lin Feng cautiously said to Gu Tianhai, "I think it’s time for you to start working on the sect matters. My primary task now is to choose a location. Once I find it, I’ll notify you immediately, and you’ll gather the Ascenders quickly. We need to speed up the process."

After recent events, Lin Feng had carefully considered. Their current strength could basically meet his expectations, and dragging things out might attract unforeseen troubles, just like having already provoked the Myriad Heavens Divine Cult. The pressure would only intensify from here on.

After hearing Lin Feng’s words, Gu Tianhai responded, "Actually, I’ve been preparing during my leisure time, Young Master, you don’t need to worry. Once you choose a location, I’ll handle it right away."

He then took out a scroll from the study, which detailed the sect’s rules, reward and punishment system, and some preparations needed. Each item was clearly organized, something he compiled while staying up late after closing the Holy Pill Pavilion, wanting to assist Lin Feng in establishing the sect was his lifelong wish, and being able to support Lin Feng was his honor, so he would definitely dedicate himself fully.

Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction upon seeing the scroll. Having Gu Tianhai meant he didn’t have to worry about anything and could fully focus on cultivation. With someone like this by his side, he was truly content.

Looking at Lin Feng, Gu Tianhai continued to ask, "Young Master, where do you plan to go next?"

Thinking for a moment, Lin Feng replied, "I want to take a look at the Frost Highland in the Northern Part."

"Frost Highland? That’s the territory of the Alien Race. Young Master, why do you want to go there?" Gu Tianhai was puzzled upon hearing this. If he were looking for a sect location, it wouldn’t be suitable; it’s a harsh land, cold climate, and dangerous Alien Race. He truly didn’t know what Lin Feng planned to do.

"I obtained a strange book and a ring in the Southern Region waters. I believe they are closely linked to the Alien Race, and I wish to see if I can find any opportunity. If I could truly connect with the Alien Race, we could ask for their help when establishing the sect in the future." Lin Feng explained to Gu Tianhai. He had heard about the Alien Race before; books only recorded briefly, but he thought if he could unravel the secrets of the ring and book, maybe he could gain unexpected rewards.

Gu Tianhai understood Lin Feng’s concerns upon hearing this and nodded in agreement. He then asked, "The expenses after establishing the sect will be enormous. Although the Holy Pill Pavilion business is thriving, it’s far from meeting the sect’s expenses, even including the Holy Pill Pavilions in Xucheng and Ling City."

Lin Feng had considered this. Previously, he wanted to execute other business plans, but he was just too busy. He then said to Gu Tianhai, "The Holy Pill Pavilion must definitely expand. There are many secondary cities around Lin City, quickly establish the Holy Pill Pavilion in those other cities too. You can send people to manage them, and now that you also have the Eternal Sky-Suppressing Disk, it’s very convenient to travel anywhere."

"Establishing the Holy Pill Pavilion is no problem, but the issue of Dan Masters..." Gu Tianhai said worriedly. Finding a good Dan Master is incredibly difficult, and most importantly, they must be loyal to the Holy Pill Pavilion, else the method to craft Flawless Quality Elixirs might leak out.

"Let Di Guang or Meng Jiao go to the new store first. As long as the inventory is sufficient, there won’t be any issue. You can slowly find a alchemist, but the most important thing is to ensure loyalty." Lin Feng was currently too occupied to deal with the alchemy matters. If a suitable candidate was found, he would come back to teach the new alchemist.

"Hmm." Gu Tianhai nodded, but he thought of another problem and said, "What about the defensive array?"

Previously, whenever the Holy Pill Pavilion opened, Lin Feng himself would set up the protective array. If Lin Feng were absent, ordinary array masters wouldn’t measure up to Lin Feng’s level, and the array they set up wouldn’t be of much use to the Holy Pill Pavilion.

"This is easy to handle. Every time the Holy Pill Pavilion opens, we just invite Elder Song Cheng over. As long as he appears, no one would dare act recklessly." After pondering for a moment, Lin Feng smiled faintly and said. He thought of leveraging the reputation of the Myriad Gods Tower; even those who had ideas about the Holy Pill Pavilion would think twice. Moreover, the opening of the Holy Pill Pavilion was always grand, drawing attention from notable figures in various cities. Upon seeing the Great Elder of the Myriad Gods Tower, they would surely assume a close relationship between the Holy Pill Pavilion and the Myriad Gods Tower, thus restraining their actions.

Gu Tianhai also laughed upon hearing this, saying, "As expected, Young Master thinks things through."

Whenever Lin Feng and Gu Tianhai talked, they forgot about time, and unknowingly several hours passed. They discussed the Sect’s planning, and both felt they had gained a lot...

It had been several days since returning to Lin City. Ma Biaohu felt very uneasy in his heart. Seeing Lin Feng busy every day, he was embarrassed to disturb him. After much deliberation, he decided to visit the Peng Family and see Peng Muxue. After all, it had been years since their separation, and he truly missed Peng Muxue.

Having changed his clothes, Ma Biaohu arrived alone at the entrance of the Peng Sect Manor. His heart was extremely nervous, as he had little experience with matters of the heart. Thinking about soon seeing the young miss of the Peng Family, he stood at the door for a long time, unsure of how to speak.

Suddenly, he saw Peng Qianshan standing at the entrance, talking to the guards. He walked up, and upon seeing Ma Biaohu’s visit, Peng Qianshan promptly greeted him, saying, "Brother Jia, you’ve come. Is Pavilion Master Lin back as well?"

Peng Qianshan had previously misunderstood Ma Biaohu and never showed him a pleasant face. He felt very embarrassed, but after the misunderstanding was cleared, he realized Ma Biaohu’s character was very good, and anyone with Lin Feng wouldn’t be lacking. He hadn’t expected Ma Biaohu and Lin Feng to be gone for several years.

Ma Biaohu saw the change in Peng Qianshan’s attitude and was at a loss for words, merely smiling and replying, "Yes, we’re back."

"You’re here to visit Muxue, right? Please, come inside." Peng Qianshan saw Ma Biaohu coming alone and guessed he was here to see Peng Muxue, so he quickly invited Ma Biaohu inside. Actually, he also hoped Peng Muxue could find a suitor soon, and he could tell Peng Muxue seemed to have a good impression of Ma Biaohu earlier. He thought this marriage might happen.

"Thank you." Ma Biaohu said politely to Peng Qianshan and then followed him into the backyard garden.

From a distance, Ma Biaohu saw Peng Muxue sitting happily on a swing, her figure swaying high and then falling, the light green skirt fluttering as she revealed a sweet smile, as if a Heavenly Immortal descending to earth. The sight captivated him, and his gaze could no longer leave Peng Muxue’s figure.

"You go ahead, I’ll not be joining." Peng Qianshan patted Ma Biaohu on the shoulder, indicating he should approach on his own. He didn’t want to interrupt the rare reunion of the two, and then he turned and left.

Ma Biaohu stood frozen in place, rehearsing in his heart how to speak to Peng Muxue. His heart raced as if it would leap out, more so than when facing Demon Beasts. Yet, facing the young miss of the Peng Family made him too shy to approach, making him feel quite embarrassed.

As half-incense time passed, Ma Biaohu summoned the courage to walk up to Peng Muxue, clearing his throat before saying, "Eldest Miss Peng, I’ve returned."

In fact, Peng Muxue had already seen Ma Biaohu standing in the distance. She just pretended not to notice, secretly observing Ma Biaohu’s awkwardness, which amused her greatly. Ma Biaohu, a tall and sturdy man, embarrassed and standing like a blushing apple from afar, appeared very cute to her. She then covered her face with a smile and said, "I’ve seen you."

Ma Biaohu hadn’t expected Peng Muxue to respond like this, leaving him unsure how to continue. Being direct was more his style; he didn’t like beating around the bush. He then bowed his head and asked, "How have you considered, Miss?"

Peng Muxue saw Ma Biaohu lower his head, unwilling to meet her gaze, and couldn’t help but burst into laughter but didn’t respond. Seeing Ma Biaohu this time, she found he had changed greatly from years ago, though she couldn’t pinpoint exactly where. But judging by his appearance, his strength seemed greatly improved. Intentionally teasing him, she didn’t speak but instead gazed at Ma Biaohu with her watery eyes.

After waiting a moment and seeing the Peng Family Miss not responding, Ma Biaohu grew anxious. Raising his eyes to look at Peng Muxue, when their gazes met, Peng Muxue’s face unexpectedly reddened.
