34: Sister Lu, you really do like my husband.

Autumn Chrysanthemum was stunned upon hearing this, her expression one of extreme exasperation.

"Young Miss, do you even understand your own feelings? Yesterday you and Feng Ming had intimate contact; that is clearly liking him. Jiang Shuwan is his wife, and you two are rivals in love. Are you sure you don't hate her?"

Lu An'an shook her head, blushing. "What nonsense are you spouting? There is nothing between Young Master Feng and me. What on earth are you thinking about?"

"Besides, even if I did like Young Master Feng, that would be my business. What does it have to do with Sister Shuwan? First come, first served; she is Young Master Feng's wife, so I should respect her."

"After all, if we were really together, it would be equivalent to me stealing away Sister Shuwan's affection. It would be good enough if she didn't hate me; what right would I have to hate her?"

Autumn Chrysanthemum's gaze rested steadily on Jiang Shuwan's face. "Young Miss, you finally admitted it. You do like Feng Ming."

Lu An'an's face flushed red, and she cast a coquettish glare at Autumn Chrysanthemum.

"I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm leaving first, you can stay here and let your imagination run wild!"

"Hey, hey, Young Miss, wait for me!"

Seeing Lu An'an turn and leave, Autumn Chrysanthemum hurriedly followed her.

...

Linglong Pavilion.

Feng Ming handed all the Pill Formulae he had received as a reward to Master Chen.

With hundreds of formulae, once put into use, the profits from the Feng Family's Medicinal Pill business would multiply.

If they were even willing to sacrifice some profit, the cost-performance ratio of the Feng Family's Medicinal Pills would be maximized.

It could even be said that even without today's competition against Huangfu Yi, the Feng Family would be in an invincible position just by relying on these Pill Formulae.

However, this was just Feng Ming's thinking. After all, the foundation for all of this rested on the Huangfu Family in Qingyang City being willing to abide by market rules.

If they played dirty behind the scenes, relying on these Pill Formulae would naturally not be enough to change everything; it could even be said to be unrealistic.

Then again, the value of these Pill Formulae to an veteran Alchemist like Master Chen was enormous.

It was enough to shock them for a long time.

Although they couldn't take the Pill Formulae configurations out for others to use for Alchemy, as an Alchemist, being able to witness such powerful Pill Formulae...

was, for them, simply the same as a Cultivator obtaining a heaven grade Cultivation Technique; it was an incredibly exciting thing.

At this moment, Master Chen's hands trembled, and he was incredibly excited. "Second Young Master, to be honest, I have lived for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen such Pill Formulae."

"On the market, a single Pill Formula could be auctioned for an exorbitant price, yet you casually produced over a hundred of them. This old man is truly too excited."

"It is also such an honor. Being able to work for the Feng Family, working for the Second Young Master, is simply this old man's greatest blessing and the most correct choice."

Seeing him so excited, Feng Ming just smiled faintly.

"Master Chen, just focus on your research. There will only be more and better Pill Formulae like this in the future."

"If you can achieve a Breakthrough to a Fourth-Grade Alchemist, I can also provide enough Fourth-Grade Pill Formulae. I will give you as many as there are."

Now Master Chen was even more excited; where else could he find something better than this?

He thanked him repeatedly.

Originally, a Breakthrough to the Third Grade was a luxury.

His opportunity stemmed from a Pill Formula from the Second Young Master.

Now he had personally guaranteed that there would be many more such Pill Formulae in the future, and if he could make a Breakthrough, there would be no shortage of Pill Formulae.

Feng Ming did not stay too long at Linglong Pavilion.

As the appointed time slowly approached, he and Jiang Shuwan got into the carriage, intending to head to the square.

There were many people on the street, and everyone was surging towards the square.

Feng Ming and Jiang Shuwan exchanged a look.

"Wife, let's go keep our appointment."

Jiang Shuwan looked excited.

Today's battle could be said to be her first battle since her Breakthrough from the Qi Refining stage.

Having jumped two Realms,

now that she possessed the heaven grade Martial Skill Secret Manual, Frost Cold Art, and the Icy Continuous Palm, she was naturally still somewhat expectant.

Feng Family Eldest Uncle, Feng Muqing, who had received orders yesterday to come along today, looked worried.

"Minger, Shuwan, it's not that your Eldest Uncle is boosting others' morale and dampening our own, but the person you are going to fight is Huangfu Yi, and he is no ordinary character."

"Although he was not admitted to the Lingxiao Sect, I heard that in his earlier years, he was always out training with the Huangfu Family's caravan in Qingyang City."

"In other words, his strength was all honed through hard work, especially his Tiger Leopard Fist, which makes his physical strength far exceed that of an ordinary person!"

"And Minger, you are a man; you should have been the one to fight. I didn't expect that in the end, it would be Shuwan going to fight."

"However, your Eldest Uncle is not blaming you. After all, your legs have only just recovered, and your strength is slightly inferior to Shuwan's, so this choice is not wrong."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shuwan hurriedly spoke up.

"Eldest Uncle, please don't misunderstand. Accepting the challenge was my own request. After all, the trouble this time was caused by me, so I should be the one to resolve it."

Feng Ming looked at Jiang Shuwan with doting eyes. "Eldest Uncle, look, it's not that I don't want to go up; it's that my wife feels bad for me and simply won't let me go."

Seeing this, the Feng Family Eldest Uncle didn't say anything more; they had already decided.

What else could he say?

In the end, Feng Ming was a descendant of the Feng Family, and as his Eldest Uncle, he did not want anything bad to happen to this nephew who had only just stood up again.

After all, Shuwan was a daughter of the Jiang Family; even if the Huangfu Family really wanted to kill, they would have to show some restraint.

Feng Muqing sighed.

Who could have thought that the girl who should have been his daughter-in-law would end up being his nephew's wife.

Now, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the two were a perfect match.

Since Mianer couldn't make it back, perhaps it was destined that they didn't have this fate.

Liumian Prefecture Square.

Huangfu Yi had already made a big fanfare yesterday, announcing that he would fight Jiang Shuwan today.

Therefore, the square was incredibly lively today.

Whether they were Cultivators or ordinary people, they had all come to the square.

Even small vendors heard the news and came to set up stalls around the square.

Everyone was there to watch the excitement, so they were naturally willing to spend a little money to eat some snacks and the like, which allowed the merchants to earn quite a bit.

Needless to say, the Cultivators were also there.

Almost everyone came to the square to watch.

After all, in a small place like Lianmian Town, there were rarely such competitions. Laymen watched for the excitement, while experts watched for the technique.

Especially these Loose Cultivators who lacked Family heritage; they couldn't afford good Cultivation Techniques, and their daily Cultivation speed simply couldn't be fast.

As a result, the strength of these people was generally very low; some didn't even have Qi Refinement Stage level two.

At this moment, they were full of interest.

"Hey, hey! Who do you think will win today?"

"Is that even a question? It must be Jiang Shuwan. A person from the Jiang Family must have very powerful strength."

"Hey, don't speak so soon. That Jiang Shuwan is just a concubine's daughter of the Jiang Family and is not valued; how strong can she be?"

"On the contrary, I heard from relatives in Qingyang City that Huangfu Yi is a genuine Foundation Establishment Stage expert. Whether it is Middle Stage or Late Stage is hard to say."

"Indeed, some say he is only at the Middle Stage, and it is that Tiger Leopard Fist that is powerful, giving him the strength of a Foundation Establishment Late Stage."

"No, I also heard that Huangfu Yi is at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. I heard that with his Tiger Leopard Fist, he can fight against a Golden Core."
