But just now, although she hadn’t yet read the contents inside, she had already looked at the scroll. However, she wasn’t a member of the Lin Clan, didn’t that mean she would have to marry Lin Feng?

Immediately, her perfectly delicate face turned an intense shade of red. Even her slender, fair neck flushed pink as well.

After remaining silent for quite some time, she finally lifted her slightly misty eyes, and murmured in a soft, stammering voice, ”My Clan definitely won’t agree to me marrying outside.”

”This girl is really too pure, she actually believes that!”

Seeing that Dan Chen didn’t reject the idea, Lin Feng’s eyes brightened, and he couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

If Cao Ying had heard those words, she definitely wouldn’t have believed him, and might have rolled her eyes at him a few times.

However, the reason Dan Chen thought that way was because this method of condensing an artificial flame was exceedingly rare and precious on the Dou Qi Continent.

Especially for a family of alchemists like the Dan Clan, this kind of Dou Technique that could enhance the power of their flames and increase their success rate in refining pills was something they valued immensely.

But Lin Feng giving it to the Dan Clan was also his way of repaying Dan Yitian for leaving him so many alchemy techniques and prescriptions. Although those alchemy techniques were mostly outdated for him now, it’s had been of immense help to him in his earlier years.

Moreover, Dan Yitian had also left behind a Soul Cultivation Technique, the Grand Profound Flame Control Array, and even a Dou Sheng’s relic that contained a Heavenly Flame and other priceless treasures.

”In that case, I should help the Dan Clan a little more. Just giving them this Flame Creation Art alone feels a bit insincere.”

Thinking of all the benefits Dan Yitian had brought him, Lin Feng pondered silently. During this period, he had also investigated the origins of the Dan Clan. He discovered that before the founding of the Pill Tower, they did indeed have an ancestor with astonishing talent.

However, that Dan Clan Ancestor vanished without a trace after leading a team on an expedition—no one ever found him, dead or alive. The many experts who went with him all disappeared completely as well.

But what shocked Lin Feng the most was that Dan Yitian’s wife’s family was actually the current Cao Clan. Although he didn’t know exactly how the Cao Clan had transformed into a family of alchemists, judging from some clues,

It seemed that after Dan Yitian disappeared, the Dan Clan, in order to protect themselves, handed over many alchemy techniques to the Cao Clan, which at that time still had a Dou Zun expert guarding it.

After all, the Dan Clan back then wasn’t what it is now—there wasn’t much of real value left. The only thing that could truly impress others was the alchemist inheritance left behind by Dan Yitian.

It was likely that the Cao Clan used those techniques they obtained from the Dan Clan to nurture alchemists extensively.

Later, after aligning themselves with the founder of the Pill Tower, they gradually rose step by step to their present status. As he recalled all this in his mind, Lin Feng reached out and gently stroked Dan Chen’s silky hair.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly sensed something off. Immediately, he turned swiftly toward his left. There, dozens of meters away, an elderly man with white hair and a youthful face appeared out of nowhere.

”Hehe, if you want to marry the little princess of our Dan Clan, it won’t be that easy.”

Seeing Lin Feng’s gaze land on him, the old man chuckled softly.

At the same time, Dan Chen also turned her head to look over.

”Ah!”

Upon seeing the newcomer, Dan Chen cried out in surprise. Her already flushed face turned even redder, and she hurriedly hid behind Lin Feng.

”No way...”

Seeing the girl’s reaction, Lin Feng’s mouth twitched as he thought uncertainly in his heart.

At that moment, Dan Chen peeked out half of her blushing face and weakly said, ”Old Ancestor, why did you come out of seclusion so soon?”

”Chen’er, have you been completely bewitched by this brat? I said before I went into seclusion that I’d be cultivating for about half a year. Isn’t it about that time now?”

The old ancestor shook his head with a smile, teasing her.

When Dan Chen heard that, she remembered that indeed, half a year ago, before her ancestor went into seclusion, he had said exactly that. In that instant, she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. These past few days, she had actually forgotten all about it.

”Junior Lin Feng, greets Senior.”

Lin Feng quickly reacted and cupped his hands respectfully.

Seeing the salute, the Dan Clan’s old ancestor gave a small nod in return before continuing, ”So you are Lin Feng. I heard those fellows mention you earlier. At first, I didn’t quite believe it, but I didn’t expect that your soul has actually stepped into the Spirit Realm.”

Sensing Lin Feng’s current soul power, the Dan Clan’s old ancestor couldn’t hide the astonishment on his face. As a peak eight-colored eighth-tier alchemist, he naturally understood what it meant.

For someone of Lin Feng’s age to have already reached the Spirit Realm in soul power—this level of talent was truly extraordinary. What’s more, his Dou Qi strength wasn’t lagging behind either. At such a young age, he was already a half-step Dou Zun-level cultivator.

”Senior overpraises me, this junior was merely fortunate.”

Lin Feng smiled calmly upon hearing this.

After all, he knew his own situation best. His strength might owe a little to talent, but most of it came from the Flame Mantra and those Heavenly Flames. So how could he dare to be arrogant?

”Lin Feng, someone from the Ye Clan is looking for you.”

Just as he finished speaking, before the Dan Clan’s old ancestor could respond, a voice suddenly called out from the distance.

Lin Feng turned his head toward the sound and saw an elder swiftly flying toward them. He recognized the man—it was one of the elders from the Pill Tower responsible for managing communication between the Small Pill Tower and the outside world.

”Elder, may I ask what business the Ye Clan has with me?”

Hearing that it was the Ye Clan, Lin Feng frowned slightly and cupped his hands in inquiry.

”I’m not sure of the details myself, but according to Ye Zhong, someone else is looking for you.”

The elder shook his head, telling Lin Feng everything he knew.

”Someone else looking for me?”

Lin Feng was momentarily stunned, finding the situation rather strange.

”Well, I’ve delivered the message, so I’ll be taking my leave.”

After saying that, the elder immediately departed from the area.

”Thank you for informing me, Elder.”

Lin Feng replied politely.

The elder waved his hand dismissively before his figure quickly vanished into the distant sky.Lin Feng pondered for a moment, then decided to go and see what was going on.

However, he felt slightly relieved knowing that since Ye Zhong came personally, it most likely meant the visitor wasn’t an enemy.

He then turned toward Dan Chen and said, ”I’ll go out for a bit to see what’s happening. In the meantime, you can start cultivating this Flame Creation Art. The artificial flame it produces may not compare to a Heavenly Flame, but it’s much stronger than ordinary beast flames. Whether for pill refinement or combat, it’s a great asset.”

”Mm, Brother Lin Feng, come back soon.”

Dan Chen nodded her little head, then gently ran her delicate fingers over the crimson scroll in her hands, smiling sweetly.
