66: Chapter 67 Becoming a Family Elder

"Young Master..."

Soft, sweet voices echoed in his ears, and an intoxicating fragrance wafted towards him. Combined with the sheer white veils and the warm, soft touch, it was enough to make one's bones feel limp.

It was evident that these female Cultivators had been carefully trained; they were experienced at hunting men.

Chen Fan smiled faintly, focusing only on drinking his spirit tea, seemingly uninterested in these female Cultivators.

Seeing this, Lv Moran frowned slightly. In his eyes, since the other party had so many wives at home, he should be extremely lecherous.

He asked somewhat puzzled, "Alchemist Chen, these Cauldron are of immense help in improving one's cultivation."

"I have many wives at home, and my goal is only one: to produce many offspring and build a powerful cultivation Family. As for these beauties, rather than wasting my energy, it is better to preserve my vital essence."

"As for the path of Dual Cultivation, I am not interested," Chen Fan said truthfully.

"So that's how it is." Lv Moran laughed heartily, unable to help but think more highly of him.

One must know that many Cultivators are often addicted to this; those who are a bit luckier might successfully advance, but their Foundation is often unstable.

He had previously invited many Cultivators, and they simply couldn't hold themselves back when facing these stunning female Cultivators.

Su Yan, who was playing the zither not far away, became thoughtful after hearing this.

Judging from their conversation, the new Cultivator was an Alchemist. To be held in such high regard by the Young Lord of the Lv Family, one could imagine his Alchemy skills were extremely high.

At this moment, Lv Moran gave a slight hint to the women.

Before long, only the two of them remained in the private room.

"Alchemist Chen, if I hadn't injured my Foundation years ago, with my talent, I would have already reached Foundation Establishment. However, although the cuihua pill was refined, it only has three patterns. I wonder if the quality can be improved further?"

Speaking of this, his face was full of regret and expectation.

After hearing this, Chen Fan showed a look of sympathy and said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Lv, I will naturally strive to improve the quality of the Medicinal Pill, so please rest assured."

In fact, the last time he refined the Medicinal Pill, he was already able to refine a four-pattern Medicinal Pill, but those were all reserved for his own consumption.

"Good. Once my Foundation is repaired, I will attempt to break through to Foundation Establishment in the future."

A look of determination appeared on Lv Moran's face as he downed a cup of spirit wine, full of ambition.

By the time the banquet ended, it was already broad daylight.

After taking the Spiritual Plant needed for refining the Medicinal Pill from the Lv Family, he took the teleportation array directly back to Qingyang Market.

After returning safely, he slowly walked to the Treasure Pavilion.

Every time he entered this place, he had an inexplicable feeling, and he suspected that Wang Qingya was already pregnant.

"Alchemist Chen, long time no see." Xue Wentian said warmly, bringing out a Storage Pouch specifically for the Spiritual Plant.

"How has Shopkeeper Wang been recently?" Chen Fan couldn't help but ask as he turned around.

"Everything is well, Alchemist Chen, please rest assured."

"Is that so?" Chen Fan looked towards the second floor with a suspicious expression, feeling a pair of eyes watching him.

After he left, Wang Qingya touched her belly, which was several sizes larger, her expression becoming increasingly grave.

Next, he took the Family flying boat and quickly returned to the Qin Family.

The one guarding the mountain gate was the Third Elder Qin Feng, whose aura was heavy and who was at the Peak Qi Refining Stage.

Seeing Chen Fan step out of the flying boat, he immediately went up to greet him, his attitude appearing very enthusiastic.

"Alchemist Chen, you're back?"

"I went out to take care of some matters. I wonder if the Third Elder has any important business?" Chen Fan noticed the other party's strange expression and asked curiously.

"It's like this..."

Qin Feng lowered his voice and asked in a whisper, "I heard that you have seized the Xiang Family's Spiritual Vein? And that you have successfully registered it with the Immortal Sect?"

"I only recently managed to register it through someone, I didn't expect the Third Elder to know so soon." Chen Fan nodded slightly, knowing that such things could not be hidden, but he was still greatly surprised by the Qin Family's well-informed news.

"Our Qin Family also has Cultivators in the Superior Sect. That person happened to see it by chance, so they passed the news back. Since it was successfully registered, then congratulations, brother."

Being able to possess an independent Spiritual Vein and successfully register it in the Immortal Sect was impossible without connections, so he thought more highly of him, clearly wanting to get closer to him.

"There is one more thing I want to ask you. What is the background of those guarding Cultivators? Could it be that you hired them with money?"

"Third Elder, you are joking. Where would I have that many Spirit Stones? Those are all guards of a friend."

After hearing this, Qin Feng became even more incredulous, his face full of curiosity.

Just as he was about to ask again, a Family Cultivator slowly walked up and bowed: "Alchemist Chen, the Grand Elder has something to discuss with you."

Before long, Chen Fan arrived at the Grand Elder's residence.

Great Elder Qin Yuanshan was amiable and had his daughter, Qin Lingxi, prepare spirit tea.

Soon after, the fragrance of the spirit tea wafted out.

"Good son-in-law, there are rumors outside that you have successfully registered with the Immortal Sect. Is this true?"

"It is true. Actually, I do not have those connections; everything was handled by someone I entrusted."

"Entrusted? Who?" Great Elder Qin Yuanshan frowned slightly, clearly not quite believing it.

"When I was out once, I happened to meet the Young Lord of the Lv Family, and he helped me handle it."

"The Lv Family, which Lv Family?" Great Elder Qin Yuanshan was greatly surprised, as if he remembered something, "Could it be the Lv Family of Daoxuan City?"

Chen Fan nodded slightly, too lazy to hide it. Now that he possessed a Qi Refining Spiritual Vein, he would certainly be the subject of gossip, so it was better to just bring up the Zifu Family directly.

Qin Lingxi, not far away, was equally shocked. She had previously accompanied her father to the Lv Family, and even though they brought generous gifts, no one paid them any attention.

As a Zifu Family, the Lv Family was powerful, and many families wanted to attach themselves to it. In their eyes, the Qin Family was simply not worth mentioning.

Great Elder Qin Yuanshan thought for a moment, and combined with the information he had received earlier, he determined that the other party was not lying.

At this time, his attitude became even more enthusiastic, and he nodded repeatedly.

"Good son-in-law Chen is now at the 12th Level of Qi Refining, and your Alchemy skills are very strong. You can now be promoted to a Family Elder. I will mention this to the Old Ancestor."

"Family Elder?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Fan blinked unconsciously.

One must know that the Family Elders of the Qin Family were always only given to Qin Family Cultivators; as an outsider with a different surname, he was obviously not suitable.

The other party's move was very obvious; besides being reluctant to part with an Alchemist, he cared even more about the Lv Family behind him.

"In a few years, I will be able to break through to Foundation Establishment. If I really become a Family Elder, that wouldn't be bad."

After weighing the pros and cons, Chen Fan did not object, adopting a go-with-the-flow attitude; whether it succeeded or not, he didn't care.

After some conversation, he headed towards the Pill Refining Room.

The Spiritual Plant given by Lv Moran this time was plenty. Besides refining the cuihua pill, there were also the huntian pill and tuomai pill.

Refining these Medicinal Pill didn't take much time at all. Relying on his super-high success rate, he quickly completed the refining tasks.

Next was to continuously consume the Medicinal Pill to increase his cultivation. As each cuihua pill was refined, that layer of shackles became increasingly loose.

In the blink of an eye, two months later, the wives at home were pregnant again.

And good news also came from the Grand Elder: the Ancestor of the Qin Family had agreed to let Chen Fan directly become a Family Elder.
