105: Chapter 105 Double Happiness

At noon!

The entire Jidao Martial Arts Hall!

Crowds were surging, and it was extraordinarily lively.

For Pavilion Master Su, today was a day of double happiness.

First, Lin Feng was officially becoming his disciple!

Second, Lin Feng had agreed to get engaged to his beloved daughter, Senior Sister Su Qingya, and become his ideal son-in-law.

Thus, a few days ago, Hall Master Su Tongtian had sent out invitations in advance, inviting the big figures of Qingyun County to come and witness the ceremony today!

And everyone gave him plenty of Face!

Almost every notable figure in Qingyun County had arrived.

After the apprenticeship ceremony concluded, Hall Master Su Tongtian also publicly announced the engagement of Lin Feng and Senior Sister Su Qingya.

Next, a grand feast was held within the martial arts hall to entertain these distinguished guests!

In the outer courtyard's Martial Arts Arena, over a dozen tables were set up!

Various delicacies were served, their aroma wafting for miles!

In the Inner Courtyard, however, only one table was set.

It was meant for the truly prominent figures of the county town.

Battalion Commander Chu Xingchen of the Demon Suppression Bureau sat at the head of the table in the center.

To his lower left sat Pavilion Master Ji Linger of the Pill Pavilion.

To the right sat a man in black robes.

This person was none other than Envoy Lu Fei of the Demon Corpse Sect.

When Commander Chu Xingchen introduced him publicly, he said Envoy Lu Fei was a friend of his from Qinghe Prefecture!

Since Envoy Lu Fei's strength was not weak, having already stepped into the Shenbian Realm Initial Stage!

Combined with being Commander Chu Xingchen's good friend.

He naturally sat in the secondary seat of honor.

As the host, Hall Master Su Tongtian sat below Pavilion Master Ji Linger!

Master Li Badao and Hall Master Guo Yunxiao also attended today's banquet.

Although these two didn't get along with Hall Master Su Tongtian, they were still invited on this joyous day.

Additionally, the heads of the Four Major Families had also come!

However, these four could only occupy the lowest seats.

As today's protagonist, Lin Feng was pulled by Hall Master Su Tongtian to sit right beside him.

"Haha, everyone, thank you for coming to my beloved disciple Lin Feng's apprenticeship banquet today, as well as the engagement banquet for Feng'er and my daughter. I'll drink first as a toast, please help yourselves!" Hall Master Su Tongtian stood up, raised his glass with a smile, and drained it in one go!

"Cheers!" Hearing this, everyone hurriedly raised their glasses and finished their wine.

After three rounds of wine and five courses of tea.

The guests then began to converse freely!

"Protector Chu, that kid called Lin Feng is not simple at all!" At that moment, Envoy Lu Fei sent a quiet voice transmission.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Commander Chu Xingchen was startled and asked in confusion.

"This morning, I was planning to go to Qingyun Alley to contact one of our Demon Corpse Sect's secret sentries here. Guess what I saw on the way?" Envoy Lu Fei acted mysteriously.

"What did you see?" Commander Chu Xingchen asked, puzzled.

"From a distance, I saw that Lin Feng actually decapitated a Cultivator at the Late Stage of the Core Condensation Realm with a single sword strike, and judging by his movements, he didn't seem to use his full strength."

"What?" Hearing this, Commander Chu Xingchen couldn't help but be deeply shaken, and he involuntarily cried out in surprise.

Because he was too shocked, while the previous conversation was through Divine Thought transmission!

This time, he couldn't help but shout it out publicly.

Lin Feng and the others all looked at Commander Chu Xingchen in surprise.

"Battalion Commander Chu, what's wrong?" Pavilion Master Ji Linger asked from the side, puzzled.

"Ah! No... it's nothing, I just thought of something that shocked me greatly!" Commander Chu Xingchen hurriedly shook his head with a smile.

Then, he scanned the guests at the table and said apologetically, "Everyone, my apologies, I lost my composure just now!"

"Haha, it's nothing!"

"No matter, no matter!"

Hearing this, everyone hurriedly replied with forced smiles.

"Is what you just said true?" Once the others' attention shifted, Commander Chu Xingchen's Face turned grim, and he asked again via voice transmission.

"Yes, absolutely certain. I saw it with my own eyes!" Envoy Lu Fei nodded slightly.

"So, we've all been fooled by that kid Lin Feng?" Commander Chu Xingchen glanced coldly at Lin Feng.

"Indeed!" Envoy Lu Fei replied. "In my opinion, that kid has definitely hidden his cultivation level; he's not as simple as the Early Stage of the Core Condensation Realm seen on the surface!"

"You mean, it's possible he killed Young Master Su Ming?" Commander Chu Xingchen asked again!

"I can't be sure of that yet!" Envoy Lu Fei shook his head and explained, "After all, Young Master Su Ming was no ordinary Late Stage Core Condensation Realm Cultivator. As a dual Cultivator of body and martial arts, he was practically invincible among his peers. Even if Lin Feng was hiding something, killing him wouldn't have been easy!"

"Then what do you mean?" Commander Chu Xingchen frowned and continued to ask!

"In my opinion, we shouldn't alert the enemy before having solid evidence, but we must place this Lin Feng under close surveillance. What if he really did it?" Envoy Lu Fei suggested.

"Fine, I'll listen to you!" Commander Chu Xingchen nodded and said with a dark expression, "Once this banquet is over, I will dispatch my trusted subordinates to monitor this boy closely!

The moment I find out he did it, I will strike with thunderous force and kill him."

"Good!" Envoy Lu Fei nodded heavily and said no more!

...

"Pavilion Master Su, I have a matter I'd like to ask your help with!" At that moment, Pavilion Master Ji Linger turned to Hall Master Su Tongtian and spoke loudly.

"Oh? What is it? Pavilion Master Ji, please feel free to speak!" Hall Master Su Tongtian laughed.

"Five days from now, I have a very important Precious Medicine that needs to be transported to Qinghe Prefecture, but I lack reliable manpower. So, I would like to ask you, Pavilion Master Su, to help with the escort. What do you think?"

"Ah! This..." Pavilion Master Su looked troubled.

"Pavilion Master Su, I won't let you help for nothing. As long as you're willing to help me this time, I'll make the decision that from now on, everyone from your Jidao Martial Arts Hall will get a twenty percent discount on all Medicinal Pills purchased from the Pill Pavilion!"

"I'd like to help you with this, but unfortunately, I have no time to spare a Clone of myself; I must stay at the martial arts hall to teach my disciples!" Hall Master Su Tongtian shook his head and refused directly!

The road from Qingyun County to Qinghe Prefecture is not peaceful!

Not only are there countless bandits to Face, but many powerful demons also cause trouble at night!

A slight lapse in caution could lead to eternal damnation.

A mere twenty percent discount on Medicinal Pills wasn't enough to move him.

"Pavilion Master Su, don't be in such a hurry to refuse. If you're willing to help this time, I can also give you a Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pill." Pavilion Master Ji Linger continued to entice him.

"What? A Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pill?" Hearing this, Hall Master Su Tongtian's heart couldn't help but leap.

As the name suggests, a Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pill is a Medicinal Pill that can help a Late Stage Core Condensation Realm Cultivator successfully advance directly to the Divine Transformation Realm!

The value of this pill is completely immeasurable.

It's not something that can be bought with silver or Spirit Stones.

Because the Materials for refining this Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pill are extremely rare!

Thus, such pills are almost entirely in the hands of those major families and Sects.

For ordinary people, obtaining one is as difficult as reaching the heavens!

If he could get one, wouldn't he be able to help Lin Feng or his daughter, Senior Sister Su Qingya, step into the Divine Transformation Realm as soon as possible in the future?

To be honest, if it were any other treasure, Hall Master Su Tongtian wouldn't be moved!

But the Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pill concerned the future of his beloved daughter and son-in-law, so he had to give it serious consideration!

"Pavilion Master Su, rest assured, the task of escorting the Precious Medicine isn't being given solely to your Jidao Martial Arts Hall. I will also be bringing a group of my own subordinates along!

The reason I'm inviting you to go along is just to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Hall Master Su Tongtian thought for a moment and said with a grave expression, "I want two Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pills. If you agree, I will personally set out and accompany you to Qinghe Prefecture!"

"Ah! This..." Pavilion Master Ji Linger's expression changed, her eyes showing deep hesitation and struggle.

After all, two Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pills were no small matter.

But thinking of the importance of that Precious Medicine, Pavilion Master Ji Linger finally gritted her teeth. "Fine, I agree. As long as you can safely escort me back to Qinghe Prefecture, I will present two Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pills with both hands!"

"Haha, deal!" Hall Master Su Tongtian laughed heartily!

If he could truly get two Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pills, then once his daughter and son-in-law Lin Feng stepped into the Core Condensation Realm, they would be able to advance to the Divine Transformation Realm very quickly.

...

"Pavilion Master Ji, in the past, your Pill Pavilion almost always collaborated with our Badao Martial Arts Hall for escorts. Why didn't you come to us this time?" At that moment, Master Li Badao, who was at the same table, spoke up displeasedly!

He wanted the Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pills too.

Forget about two; even if it were only one, he would have agreed!

After all, a Second-grade Realm-Breaking Pill practically meant the creation of a Divine Transformation Realm expert.

"Indeed, Pavilion Master Ji, our Fengyun Martial Arts Hall can also do this. I don't want much; just one realm breaking pill will do!" At this time, Hall Master Guo Yunxiao also spoke up quickly, volunteering himself.

"Haha, I have already discussed it with Pavilion Master Su. I won't trouble the two of you with this matter!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger shook her head and refused directly!

The truth was, the Precious Medicine to be escorted this time was extremely valuable and concerned the life and death of her father!

She didn't want any mistakes to occur.

And Master Li Badao and Hall Master Guo Yunxiao clearly lacked character; they weren't as reliable as Hall Master Su Tongtian.

She worried that if she invited these two to be responsible for the escort, they might make a move midway and steal the Precious Medicine!

Therefore, after considering everything, she still decided to pay a higher price to invite Hall Master Su Tongtian.

As for why she spoke of this matter in public instead of discussing it with Hall Master Su Tongtian in secret!

It was mainly because even if it were done in secret, it couldn't be hidden.

Because that life-saving Precious Medicine was something she had recently bid a large sum for at an auction.

At that time, Master Li Badao and the others were also present.

Rather than being evasive, it was better to speak out proactively!

Additionally, the reason she did this actually had a deeper intention.

"Damn it, how come every good thing is snatched away by that man named Su!" Master Li Badao gritted his teeth in secret, itching with hatred!

Beside him, Hall Master Guo Yunxiao's Face was also as dark as water, looking at Hall Master Su Tongtian with immense resentment and unwillingness.

"Haha, Pavilion Master Su, then it's settled. We'll set off in five days!" Pavilion Master Ji Linger said with a smile.

"Fine, just send someone to notify me in advance when it's time to leave!" Hall Master Su Tongtian nodded!

"By the way, will you bring Lin Feng along this time?" Pavilion Master Ji Linger asked casually.

"Of course!" Hall Master Su Tongtian said with a smile. "Lin Feng is not only my beloved disciple but also my ideal son-in-law. Naturally, I must keep him by my side at all times to prevent him from being harmed by people with ill intentions."

After saying that, Hall Master Su Tongtian glanced coldly at Master Li Badao and Hall Master Guo Yunxiao.

Seeing this, the two were so angry that smoke almost came out of their ears, and they glared with indignation...

What Hall Master Su Tongtian didn't expect was that because of his decision today.

It led to Lin Feng obtaining infinite fortunes in the days to come.

Including various high-grade Precious Medicines, Heaven-Grade Divine Weapons...

His strength grew by leaps and bounds, and he soon stepped into the Divine Transformation Realm.
