Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1825: Chapter 1824 Investigation

Lin Dong maintained his composure, pretending to ask curiously:

”Alliance Leader, who do you think I resemble?”

”You resemble an old acquaintance I’ve never met!” Qin Feng said with a smile.

Lin Dong was puzzled: ”If you’ve never met, how can he be called an acquaintance?”

”Haha, well, that’s because he’s my junior brother. Although we’ve never met, we were once disciples under the same master, learning together in the same place. So, although we’ve never met, naturally he counts as an old acquaintance.” Qin Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong instantly understood—Qin Feng was referring to the identity Lin Dong was originally hiding.

But at this moment, he could only feign ignorance and say, ”Alliance Leader, are you saying I resemble your junior brother? Who is your junior brother?”

Qin Feng replied, ”You may have heard of him. He’s the most brilliant person in the Martial Arts World of the Dragon Country in recent years. He is none other than Dragon Country’s Master Lin, who has created many legends in the Martial Arts World!”

”Hiss~~~” Lin Dong deliberately exaggerated his reaction, saying, ”Alliance Leader, your junior brother turns out to be Dragon Country’s Master Lin? My heavens, that’s shocking.”

Qin Feng laughed, ”Very few people know about this matter.”

”Perhaps even my junior brother, who I’ve never met, went to his grave not knowing he has me as his senior brother.”

”It’s not my fault—our master never truly regarded me as his disciple. So I guess he probably never even told my junior brother that he has a senior like me.”

Lin Dong quickly said, ”Alliance Leader, why do you say I resemble Dragon Country’s Master Lin? I can’t compare to him.”

”You may not compare to him now, but with your talent in alchemy, you’ll sooner or later become someone like him.”

”Don’t underestimate yourself. If you lacked potential, I wouldn’t have chosen to marry my sister to you.”

”It’s impossible—I wouldn’t have selected you to be my brother-in-law.” Qin Feng said.

Lin Dong hurriedly bowed and thanked, ”Thank you for your favor, Alliance Leader. I will definitely cultivate and study alchemy diligently in the future, and I swear to serve the Dan Alliance faithfully.”

Right now, he had to display loyalty.

Of course, kneeling to express loyalty? That was out of the question.

In this world, no one could make him kneel—even if the person in front of him was his senior brother.

Even though he was hiding his identity now, merely posing as a martial artist with grandmaster-level strength.

Still, he would never kneel to Qin Feng!

At most, he would clasp his hands in salute.

Seeing this, Qin Feng nodded slightly, then jokingly said, ”I kept you here for private conversation, but actually, there’s another matter.”

”Please speak, Alliance Leader.” Lin Dong asked hurriedly.

”Since you’re already engaged to my sister, you should move directly to her Xiaoxiang Mansion after this. If possible, have a child with her soon!” Qin Feng said.

Lin Dong: ”...”

Qin Feng casually said, ”I’m not joking about this. Yi Tian and I come from a family in the Dragon Country, but our lineage now consists solely of the two of us.”

”I hope more descendants can carry on our lineage.”

Working up his courage, Lin Dong asked, ”Alliance Leader, pardon my boldness, but since you find your family line sparse and wish for descendants, why don’t you...”

Qin Feng replied indifferently, ”Because the cultivation method I practice forbids it.”

”Enough. Certain matters shouldn’t be questioned further. Just do as I say.”

”I permit you and Yi Tian to begin your relationship and even conceive before marriage...”

”But let me be clear: since you’re engaged to my sister and will marry her, you mustn’t fool around with others in the future. If you do, I won’t let you off lightly.”

Lin Dong could only repeatedly promise, ”Understood, Alliance Leader. Regarding Miss Yi Tian, I will do my best.”

He could only give such a response.

”Very well, go now.” Qin Feng waved his hand, motioning for Lin Dong to leave.

Lin Dong also sighed in relief.

Truth be told, being alone with Qin Feng brought considerable pressure.

He was genuinely afraid of revealing his true identity.

Fortunately, although Qin Feng mentioned once that Lin Dong resembled ’Dragon Country’s Master Lin,’ he didn’t delve further.

How could he not resemble himself?

If one doesn’t even resemble oneself, what’s left?

However, it was clear Qin Feng hadn’t realized that Lin Dong was alive, concealing his identity, and appearing before him in the guise of ’Dong Lin.’

Such circumstances—even for someone like Qin Feng—were truly beyond imagination.

No one would ever make such a connection.

Unless Lin Dong’s strength was revealed, no one would suspect the truth.

After leaving Qin Feng, Lin Dong saw Qin Yi Tian waiting for him at the door.

On her face, there was still a trace of worry.

Lin Dong asked, ”Miss Yi Tian, are you worried about me?”

Qin Yi Tian gently nodded.

Curious, Lin Dong half-joked, ”Miss Yi Tian, I was just chatting privately with my future brother-in-law. What’s there to worry about?”

Qin Yi Tian’s face blushed. She was still a little shy about Lin Dong calling her brother ’brother-in-law.’

Lowering her voice, she sighed, ”You don’t understand. My brother is very terrifying. Don’t be fooled by the warm smile he keeps on his face or the kindness he shows you now... If there’s something you disregard when following his commands, he can turn hostile at any moment.”

”And when he does, it’s faster than flipping a book. Worse still, it can be deadly.”

Lin Dong, despite limited interaction with Qin Feng, had already discerned enough of his personality. It was indeed as Qin Yi Tian described.

With people like Qin Feng, Lin Dong could never fully trust him or truly serve him.

”Alright, let’s go back to Xiaoxiang Pavilion.” Qin Yi Tian said, pulling Lin Dong by the arm and leading him away.

After all, this place wasn’t suitable for conversation—there were too many ears around. The things she wanted to say to Lin Dong next couldn’t be overheard by her brother Qin Feng.

Otherwise, not only would it bring ruin upon herself, but it might spell death for ’Dong Lin’ too.

The two made their way to Xiaoxiang Garden.

Meanwhile, in the Alliance Leader’s Reception Room, Qin Feng and Hong Lian remained the only two present.

Qin Feng turned to Hong Lian and said, ”I asked you to investigate their identities—have you discovered anything?”

Hong Lian nodded and replied, ”Reporting to the Young Master, I’ve uncovered some information.”

”The young lady accompanying Miss Yi Tian, An Lan, is from the Dragon Country Hidden Clan and a member of the Celestial Master Sect.”

”Oh? A member of the Celestial Master Sect?” Even Qin Feng was surprised at this, and he asked with curiosity:

”Why would someone from the Celestial Master Sect hide their identity and infiltrate my Nanyang Pill Alliance?”

”In peaceful times, Dragon Country’s Celestial Master Sect never concerns themselves with worldly affairs. Only during times of chaos do they emerge to resist external threats.”

”Why would one of their members come to my Pill Alliance?” Qin Feng couldn’t comprehend.

Hong Lian shook her head and said, ”I’m not sure either, and the Celestial Master Sect rarely accepts female disciples. That An Lan, being so young and enlisted into their ranks, is truly unusual.”

Qin Feng furrowed his brows, ”Did you uncover anything else about her?”

”No, I couldn’t find out anything else. She likely employed some Celestial Master techniques to conceal her true cultivation level. Even I can’t see through her actual strength.” Hong Lian answered.

”There’s no need to investigate—I can discern.” Qin Feng waved dismissively, ”Forget about her for now; just keep an eye on her moving forward.”

Then, his expression darkened as he asked:

”What about Dong Lin? What did you uncover about him?”

Right now, his focus was on ’Dong Lin’s’ identity!
