CHAPTER 868: CHAPTER 878: TANG DAN KING

It seems that the owner of this residence is still a favored person under the Panlong Heavenly Emperor. I just don’t know, who exactly is this big figure?

Chu Feng is completely clueless about the big figures in the Azure Dragon Imperial City, as if blindfolded.

He couldn’t help but remember the benefits of Li Shishi.

If Li Shishi were here, she would definitely know upon asking.

There are quite a few servants inside the residence, busy with their work. Some are tending the flowers and trees, others are sweeping the floors, cleaning. Someone is even pouring water into the fish pond.

In the lifestyle of the wealthy, everything is about grandeur and luxury, enjoying life to the fullest.

They don’t care about spending Silver.

Poor people find secret joy just filling their bellies. They don’t have spare money to spend on these landscapes and such.

Chu Feng’s nose twitched, and the scent of medicine wafted over from the south.

The construction of an Alchemy Room generally has its considerations, and in such wealthy households, the considerations are even more pronounced. The east is where the owner resides, with auspicious purple air from the east, symbolizing wealth. The west is for guest rooms, and the north is mostly used for livestock, for the servants to live.

The south represents fire, because according to legend, the entrance to the Immortal Realm, the South Heavenly Gate, is in the south, so the south symbolizes longevity and auspiciousness.

Building the Alchemy Room to the south of the residence not only facilitates fire acquisition but also carries good symbolism.

Therefore, the vast majority of private Alchemy Rooms are built to the south.

In fact, Alchemy is a very costly and extravagant affair.

Ordinary wealthy families absolutely cannot afford it.

Not to mention anything else, just maintaining a Pill Master is not an easy task.

Chu Feng directly flew towards the southern Alchemy Room. Along the way, the servants of the Pang Residence only felt a slight breeze pass by. They were completely unaware of Chu Feng’s presence.

"Oh, I didn’t expect the Pang Residence to support multiple Pill Masters!"

Breaking into the South Courtyard, he saw several Alchemy Rooms built inside, with Pill Masters busy with Alchemy inside.

Even for wealthy families, they generally support one or two Pill Masters at most. It’s because the Elixirs they refine are not for sale, but specifically for the master and family.

Whatever Elixir is needed, they just give the order, and the supported Pill Masters can quickly refine it.

Upon close observation, Chu Feng discovered that the Wu family had a total of six Pill Masters. The most powerful among them was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties with a conspicuous scar on his face.

It extended from the left brow all the way down to the chin.

It looked quite fierce and terrifying, resembling a giant centipede crawling across his face.

Moreover, the man’s gaze was especially fierce and cunning.

Just from his appearance, it was clear that this person was not a kind soul.

Isn’t the Pang Residence afraid of being backstabbed by keeping such a Pill Master?

The other eight Pill Masters showed immense respect for this person, whom they called Tang Dan King. Perhaps, it was because of his immense skill in the Alchemy Dao that the master of the Pang Residence knowingly kept him despite his unsavory nature.

Chu Feng wanted to borrow space to lay eggs, naturally, he wanted to use the best Alchemy Room.

Without a doubt, Tang Dan King’s Alchemy Room was the best one.

Tang Dan King’s cultivation was not low either, surprisingly having a Nine-star Sword God Cultivation. Such formidable cultivation was definitely enough to be unrivaled among Pill Masters.

At this moment, besides Tang Dan King in the Alchemy Room, there were also two Alchemy Boys.

They should both be Tang Dan King’s disciples.

Birds of a feather flock together, and these two disciples probably weren’t good people either.

Chu Feng thought that killing or knocking out these three without alerting anyone would be very difficult.

First, find a place to hide and wait for the right moment to act.

He’s betting they won’t stay in the Alchemy Room all the time.

His eyes quickly scanned the entire Alchemy Room, the outside was a large area with two Pill Furnaces set up, utilizing earth fire. There were also two rows of large medicine racks, where various medicinal materials could be stored.

This setup made it convenient to quickly use the materials during Alchemy.

Even the temporary storage table for medicinal materials was sculpted and polished from a whole piece of White Jade.

"Quite a setup!" Chu Feng found it difficult to hide outside, so he might as well sneak inside.

The inner room should be where Tang Dan King temporarily rested and slept.

When he enters the inner room, Chu Feng will instantly strike and eliminate him.

His body flickered, and he directly entered the inner room.

Upon entering, Chu Feng couldn’t wait to terminate the Shadow Escape Technique. Though powerful, it was incredibly taxing.

Chu Feng exclaimed he couldn’t afford the consumption.

"Mokeboer, can your Illusion Technique work on the three outside?"

"A Nine-star Sword God and two Sword Saints, it’s a piece of cake!" The Demon Eye Evil Spirit King said with confidence. "Even if the master lays on this bed snoring in sleep, I guarantee they won’t discover you!"

Having followed Chu Feng for a long time, the Demon Eye Evil Spirit King gradually became in sync with Chu Feng.

With just a word from Chu Feng, it knew exactly what he wanted it to do.

"Master, what are you doing?" The Demon Eye Evil Spirit King was startled to find Chu Feng lying straight on the bed.

"Isn’t this what you said? I can snore and sleep, and you can block it, so they won’t find out." Chu Feng rolled his eyes, speaking exasperatedly.

Lately, after many perils and continuous fierce battles, he hadn’t had a good rest. Chu Feng was indeed feeling a bit tired.

Lying on the bed allowed him to relax and recover faster.

But truly lying on the bed snoring in sleep, he wouldn’t dare. The 400,000 soldiers of the Outer City, two lovely wives, and several hundred brothers from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, were all waiting for his return.

He must hurry up and refine the Ninth Grade Talisman Elixir.

The top experts of the Azure Dragon Royal Family, having returned empty-handed, would find their ancestral graves destroyed by Chu Feng. They would definitely be even more furious, and surely would attack the Inner City again.

Chu Feng lay on the bed, holding a Spirit Stone in each hand, quickly recovering Sword Essence.

He only had one Elixir for recovering Qi-Blood left, and without hesitation, he swallowed it. Perhaps because he had taken the same type of Elixir too many times in a short period, its effects were clearly not as good as before.

Outside, the conversation among the three was audible.

The disciple responsible for adjusting the Alchemy Fire said, "Master, is it true that the ’Guanyin’s Child-Giving Elixir’ you refined for Madam Pang is so miraculous?"

"How dare you doubt the effectiveness of master’s Elixirs!" The disciple on the right, in his thirties, was handsome, but his cheeks were hollow. In face reading, such a person is treacherous and sinister at heart.

"I’m just curious and asking. Why should senior brother falsely accuse me! If you want to talk about boldness, senior brother is much bolder than me. A few days ago, he even attempted to peek at master’s Elixir recipe!"

The young man adjusting the Alchemy Fire was barely in his twenties, quite young.

With a harmless smile, he spoke clearly.

He immediately turned the tables on his senior brother, scaring his senior brother so much that his face turned pale.

"Master, don’t listen to junior brother’s nonsense. I was just trying to pay my respects to master, but it turned out master wasn’t there..." explained the senior brother hurriedly.
