Chapter 188: Different from Expectations
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After returning to the shop, Zhou Feng briefly looked at today’s sales of the Rejuvenation Pill.
The Rejuvenation Pill indeed had a large market, and it was still sold out today as well.
According to this situation, Zhou Feng should not have to worry about the Spirit Stones for the time being.
Moreover, Qian Qianqian’s learning speed was also somewhat beyond his expectations.
Although she was blind, Qian Qianqian’s other senses were very sharp. She could basically sniff all kinds of medicinal herbs and know what they were.
She had even tried to refine pills!
Although she failed in the end, this kind of talent seemed a little abnormal.
In just a day’s time, she had familiarized herself with the pill formula of the Rejuvenation Pill, so her pill refinement technique was not too much of a problem.
Most importantly, Qian Qianqian’s blindness didn’t affect her pill refinement.
The flame relied on perception, as well as the pill’s changes. If she were only refining a pill like the Rejuvenation Pill, then it wouldn’t be too much of a problem.
It wouldn’t be too much of a problem if she didn’t have eyes.
At this rate, Zhou Feng would soon be able to obtain a Pill Master as an underling.
“Your current realm isn’t high enough. If you forcefully refine the pill, you’ll only fail. It’s better to focus on familiarizing yourself with it for now.”
Zhou Feng gave some simple pointers.
The main reason Qian Qianqian failed to refine pills was that her cultivation was not high enough.
A Body Tempering fledging wanted to refine pills? This was simply too difficult, so Zhou Feng instructed Qian Qianqian to raise her realm first before trying to refine pills.
Anyway, with the Demon-Devouring Gu’s assistance, Qian Qianqian’s breakthrough should not be too far away.
The only bad thing was that Qian Qianqian was already affected by the Demon-Devouring Gu.
Her Blood Qi was chaotic.
This was the same problem Zhou Feng had faced before, but Qian Qianqian did not pursue a higher realm.
The advantages of this Demon-Devouring Gu were greater than the disadvantages.
After dealing with a bunch of things, Zhou Feng returned to his residence from the small shop.
‘This is…’
Just as he approached his small courtyard, he noticed a few people standing at the door.
The leader’s cultivation was not low!
“Oh? You’re finally back! Hello, son-in-law!”
When Second Steward Li saw Zhou Feng, he immediately walked over with some things in his hands.
Zhou Feng did not look at the specific person.
‘Son-in-law?’
His face showed a baffling expression.
‘I don’t think I know this person in front of me!’
Zhou Feng frowned slightly and asked calmly, “I’m sorry, do I know you?”
“You don’t, but you will from now on. I’m the Second Steward of the Li Clan. You can call me Second Steward!”
Second Steward Li was very polite.
Although from his posture and expression, this so-called Second Steward Li did not seem to be rude in any way, Zhou Feng still felt a trace of arrogance, as if he was looking down on him.
“The Li Clan?”
“That’s right! Your wedding with our Eldest Miss—”
Zhou Feng didn’t wait for Second Steward Li to finish speaking. “Wedding? You’ve found the wrong person. I don’t know any Eldest Miss. Please move aside!”
Zhou Feng believed that these people had found the wrong person. He didn’t know any Eldest Miss at all. Ever since he entered Heavenly Star City, he hadn’t had much contact with women.
Therefore, he must have mistaken him for someone else.
Second Steward Li also frowned. This situation did not seem right. “Isn’t your name Zhou Feng? Didn’t you fight with Wang Shu in the Life-Death Arena?”
Why did Zhou Feng look like he did not know what was going on at all?
“Yes, so? What does this have to do with your Li Clan?”
Zhou Feng used his last bit of patience to talk to the person in front of him.
“Don’t you know about that battle? That the winner can marry into our Li Clan?
“But it doesn’t matter. You didn’t know before, but now you do. I’m here to discuss the matter of you marrying into our clan!”
This Second Steward Li was indeed the steward of a big clan. His tone and bones were faintly emitting a trace of arrogance.
It was as if he was saying that it was a great fortune for Zhou Feng to be able to marry into the Li Clan.
In fact, if Zhou Feng were really a vagabond cultivator, then it would be a great fortune for him to obtain such a beautiful lady and become the son-in-law of the Li clan.
Although becoming the son-in-law of the Li Clan had a slightly lower status than the clan members, he could at least enjoy the clan’s resources.
No matter how one looked at it, it was a great thing.
“Really? How come I didn’t know this?”
Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows and bypassed Second Steward Li, preparing to go back and have a good rest.
He was a little tired.
“Wait! Didn’t you hear clearly? This is a chance to marry into our Li Clan!”
Second Steward Li was extremely puzzled.
Did this person not know that this was an opportunity for him to make a great leap?
The appearance of the noble daughter of the Li Clan was not bad either!
If it were anyone else, they would fight to be the son-in-law of the Li Clan.
“Oh~” Zhou Feng responded indifferently.
‘Crazy! Why would I suddenly become the son-in-law of the Li Clan?’ he ridiculed in his heart.
‘I don’t seem to have much interaction with the Li Clan… As for their so-called Eldest Miss, was she the young girl I met in the stone gambling den?’
Her appearance could indeed be called beautiful, but unfortunately, her personality wasn’t what he liked.
Moreover, her cultivation was too low, and her strength was lacking.
If he had to find a dao partner, Zhou Feng’s first request would be that her cultivation must be higher than his.
This was because he did not want his dao partner to die before him.
Given Li Rong’s cultivation base, she would definitely die before him.
Therefore, this request alone was rejected.
Second Steward Li, who had come to discuss his marriage, was completely dumbfounded as he looked at Zhou Feng. He did not care at all!
“How could this be?”
Like most people, Second Steward Li had already tacitly agreed in his heart that Zhou Feng really wanted to become the son-in-law of the Li Clan.
Even if he did not know the specific situation before, Zhou Feng would definitely agree at the first moment. It was precisely because of this that everyone believed that Zhou Feng would agree.
They did not consider that Zhou Feng would reject them. After all, only a fool would reject such a good thing.
In reality, however, Zhou Feng actually rejected it, and it did not seem like he was faking it.
That nonchalant look made Second Steward Li not know how to handle this matter for a moment.
Before this, Second Steward Li had even anticipated Zhou Feng’s ugly side and that he would ruthlessly demand the Li Clan’s resources.
Second Steward Li had already anticipated many scenarios in his heart. He used a righteous tone to warn Zhou Feng not to have any devious thoughts.
He had to serve their Eldest Miss properly.
Then, he would give some benefits. With a big stick in one hand and a sweet carrot in the other, he would definitely be able to tame Zhou Feng.
He would get the Eldest Miss a sweet and suitable husband.
However, Zhou Feng’s nonchalant rejection threw off Second Steward Li. He did not know what to do!
Was he going to force Zhou Feng to become the Li Clan’s son-in-law?
Where would the Li Clan’s face go if this were to get out?
The Eldest Miss’ face would also be completely lost at that time!
