**

Leaving aside the hatred between Xiao Yan and her husband Lin Feng, back then when she attacked the Jia Ma Empire, she had even sent her subordinates to capture Xiao Yan’s two older brothers and handed them over to Soul Hall.

She didn’t believe that once he learned the truth, Xiao Yan would let her go. After all, she had heard Lin Feng say that this Xiao Yan cared deeply about his family and master.

When Xiao Yan saw Lin Feng, his face also froze in complete shock. To run into Lin Feng here, he hadn’t been mentally prepared for it at all. In his eyes, although Lin Feng’s talent was decent, his background was lowly, and unlike himself, Lin Feng had never encountered a good master.

At most, at most, he could dominate a region like the Black-Corner Region. Yet who would have thought, Lin Feng had not only come to the Pill Region, but judging from the alchemist badge hanging in front of him, he had even become a peak seventh-tier alchemist!

”Could it be that he is the Lin Feng that’s been making all the noise in the Pill Region recently?”

Seeing the peak seventh-tier alchemist badge, Xiao Yan immediately had his answer.

Unless this world just so happened to have two young men named Lin Feng both arriving in the Pill Region at the same time, and both being peak seventh-tier alchemists, otherwise, in the Pill Tower there could only be this one Lin Feng!

”Still, even though running into this Lin Feng here is unexpected, since he appeared right in front of me, doesn’t that mean I might have a chance to obtain the Green Lotus Core Flame from him?”

At that thought, greed flashed in Xiao Yan’s eyes.

For a cultivator who practiced the Flame Mantra like him, Heavenly Flames were simply too important. Without enough Heavenly Flames, his ceiling would basically already be locked in place! As for changing cultivation techniques?

He would first have to be able to endure the backlash of multiple Heavenly Flames erupting inside his body!

”Wait, that woman also seems to have a Heavenly Flame...”

Coming back to his senses, Xiao Yan shifted his gaze onto Xiao Yi Xian.

He could feel that his own Heavenly Flame had the same kind of reaction toward the direction of that woman, just like when it had sensed Lin Feng. Which meant that this woman definitely also carried a Heavenly Flame.

However, relying on his high-grade seventh-tier soul power, he could faintly sense that the woman in white was extremely strong. If he wanted to seize her Heavenly Flame, it would be incredibly difficult.

At this time, Lin Feng slowly released his hold around the waists of the two women and walked step by step toward Xiao Yan.

Seeing this, Ye Xin Lan also noticed something was off. She immediately turned to the Xiao Yi Xian beside her and asked, ”Sister Xian’er, does husband know that man?”

Hearing that, Xiao Yi Xian explained, ”When Lin Feng had just formed his Dou Qi vortex, he happened to pick up a Low-Grade Xuan Class Dou Technique. But this Xiao Yan snatched it away from him.”

As Ye Xin Lan gradually understood the grudge between Lin Feng and Xiao Yan, the way she looked at Xiao Yan also became more hostile.

Meanwhile, some people nearby had also recognized the two. Seeing that something was about to happen, quite a few gathered around to watch the commotion.

”What, are you planning to make a move against me here?”

As Lin Feng walked slowly over, Xiao Yan swept his eyes over the crowd gathering to watch and frowned as he spoke.

At the same time, the Dou Qi inside his body began to circulate rapidly. Although this was the Pill Tower, and with so many people around, the chance of the other party daring to make a move was very small, Xiao Yan still didn’t dare to let his guard down.

After all, this was someone who had once defeated a Two-Star Dou Zun expert.

”Heh, I don’t exactly have the interest to make a move against you right now.”

Seeing how wary Xiao Yan looked, Lin Feng chuckled lightly.

Not to mention the surrounding crowd, the moment he walked closer to Xiao Yan, he could faintly feel a hidden gaze watching him. Obviously, there were Pill Tower experts keeping an eye on the situation here.

Of course, that was normal. After all, the relationship between Xiao Yan and the Three Leaders of the Pill Tower was something pretty much all the core members of the tower now knew.

With Xiao Yan appearing in this trading venue, it was only natural that many would be paying special attention to his movements. That being the case, Lin Feng definitely wouldn’t make a move against Xiao Yan in such a public setting.

After all, doing something so thankless, only a fool would do that. When Lin Feng finally came up beside Xiao Yan, he let out a cold laugh and said, ”Come to think of it, I should actually thank you for where I am today.”

”Thank me?”

Hearing that, Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment. He couldn’t recall ever doing anything that could be considered a favor for the other.

Seeing the confusion on his face, Lin Feng continued calmly, ”If you hadn’t forcibly bought off the only valuable thing I had back then, leaving me with no cultivation technique to practice, maybe I would’ve just chosen some random city in the Northwestern Region, dominated a little territory, taken a few dozen concubines, and lived out my life that way. I wouldn’t have been driven to take the risk of killing that first-tier alchemist Liu Xi, and I wouldn’t have climbed step by step to where I am now.”

Hearing that, Xiao Yan’s pupils shrank violently.

Memories buried deep in his mind suddenly all came surging back. That incident of first-tier alchemist Liu Xi going missing—he had heard rumors of it back in Wu Tan City.

But he never expected it had actually been this man’s doing. Even more unexpected, that little moment of greed for a Low-Grade Xuan Class Dou Technique back then had actually set off such huge consequences!

”What? Xiao Yan once even snatched a Dou Technique from Lin Feng? Now that’s interesting.”

”Yeah, do you think the two of them are gonna fight?”

”I’m curious too.”

As soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, heated discussions erupted within the crowd of onlookers.

After all, anyone who could come here wasn’t stupid. Just from Xiao Yan’s expression, most of them had already guessed the truth behind Lin Feng’s words. Seeing the crowd talking so fervently, Xiao Yan’s brows furrowed tightly.

Lin Feng had chosen to say all this in such a public place. From now on, wouldn’t everyone in the Pill Tower be wary of him? If so, how was he supposed to keep his footing in the Pill Tower?

”If time could turn back, no matter how hard it was back then, I should have killed this Lin Feng outright, cutting off future trouble once and for all!”

Xiao Yan clenched his teeth hard, fists tightening.

Being remembered by a genius with greater talent than his own was anything but amusing. But who could have guessed that a penniless brat from back then would reach this point today?

After speaking, Lin Feng turned around and walked toward Xiao Yixian and Ye Xin Lan, who were waiting for him in the distance. Then, under Xiao Yan’s greedy yet wary gaze, he wrapped his arms around the soft waists of the two women and continued walking deeper into the hall.

As for the crowd of bystanders, they could only sigh in disappointment. Looked like today’s little drama wasn’t going to play out after all. Soon enough, those disappointed spectators drifted off in small groups.

The place, once bustling, once again became spacious and quiet.
