Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor-Chapter 983 - 993: Golden Crow Elixir

"As for the betrothal gifts, Master Ye may first take a look!" With these words, a white light flashed from the storage ring in Chief Clerk Feihong's hand. Immediately, eight exquisite gift boxes appeared on the table.

Chief Clerk Feihong glanced at Chu Feng with disdain and then said mockingly, "Young man, I don't know what so-called true love you speak of, but I must tell you, in Sword Immortal City, benefits are above all else. It's the basis for your survival."

"This is not a place where idealists can survive. Every strong person or family who survives in Sword Immortal City has gone through countless bloody trials."

After speaking a few sentences, there was no sign of stopping.

Instead, it only aroused Chief Clerk Feihong's sense of superiority and desire to lecture.

"Forgive my bluntness, but a wild child like you, who has nothing, is not worthy of Miss Ye Wu, this golden phoenix. People must have self-awareness." Chief Clerk Feihong's words became more nonsensical, making Lin Wushuang a bit unable to listen. "Young man, don't be so quick to refute. Once you see the betrothal gifts I've brought, you'll understand the disparity."

"Even if that Super Ninth Grade Soul Reviving Pill is truly made by you, it is still insignificant compared to these betrothal gifts."

This self-important, superior old man finally finished speaking.

He began to open the gift boxes one by one.

Opening the first box lid instantly caused exclamations of surprise.

Because inside the box was an Innate Treasure, a sword engraved with the Pan Chi Symbol.

Even though it was sealed within the gift box, the imposing aura and sharpness it exuded were still terrifying.

Chu Feng looked on enviously, as this was a sword of Innate Treasure level.

The items in the seven gift boxes that followed were each enough to provoke a bloody battle.

The most dazzling was the eighth gift box.

Inside was a genuine Immortal Pill.

Lin Wushuang was also seeing an actual Immortal Pill for the first time. It looked like a flame, bright red throughout.

Clearly visible was its core, resembling a brilliant sun, extremely eye-catching.

Around the Immortal Pill were thousands of auspicious energies, with golden light swirling. As the gift box was opened, they converged to form an auspicious cloud.

"This pill is called the Golden Crow Elixir. As for its effects, as soon as Master Ye swallows it, his cultivation can immediately hope to upgrade to the Earth Immortal Realm Perfection. Then, the Ye Family will no longer need to rely on others, nor depend on the protection of any top experts."

"The Penglai Auction is quite successful, but as I know, in order to ensure the safety of the Penglai Auction, your Ye Family not only partnered with another large family but also spent a fortune hiring an Earth Immortal Realm Perfection expert to oversee. It's estimated that at least one-third of the annual earnings go into that expert's pocket."

Chief Clerk Feihong smiled with great confidence, convinced that Master Ye would make the wise choice.

Chu Feng sat there, listening quietly.

Gathering useful information for himself.

The remarks of such a powerful figure were truly astounding.

Earth Immortal Realm Perfection, is this the strongest being in this realm?

Moreover, despite the Ye Family's prowess, they don't even have a single Earth Immortal Realm Perfection.

Just how hard is it to cultivate to such a realm?

Master Ye needs this Golden Crow Elixir to advance to Earth Immortal Realm Perfection. Is the Sword Dao they cultivate of Fire Attribute?

"Master Ye, and Grand Master Yan Ying, please take a close look at the brilliant sun within the Immortal Pill. You will definitely discover a surprise," said Chief Clerk Feihong with a smile once more.

Everyone focused their eyes on the brilliant sun within the Immortal Pill.

Because it was so dazzling, everyone squinted to examine it.

At first, Chu Feng didn't pay much attention. But once he saw clearly, he was astonished, nearly having his eyes pop out.

Good heavens, that brilliant sun was actually transformed from a Three-legged Golden Crow.

It was like a fetus, the Three-legged Golden Crow being nurtured, with its head and tail curled into a ball. Hence, it looked like a round sun.

An elixir that can transform is an important symbol of an Immortal Pill.

The two Immortal Pills Chu Feng refined in his previous life emerged as a phoenix and a feng after their creation.

If it weren't for their flaws, they would undoubtedly become genuine Immortal Pills.

"Uncle Ye, I won't hide it. I know you've been cultivating to Upper Earth Immortal Realm for over five hundred thousand years. Soon, it'll be six hundred thousand years. Within the Earth Immortal Realm, there's a saying: 'No less than six thousand years, no less than sixty thousand years, and no more than six hundred thousand years in the Upper Realm.' If you can't advance to Perfection after six hundred thousand years, there's little hope for further advancement in this lifetime."

At the right moment, Young Master Jin Ling spoke up.

His expression was sincere, words heartfelt, revealing a well-meaning intent boiled down to one word: filial piety.

In reality, this was somewhat amusing.

Master Ye was neither Young Master Jin Ling's father nor his close relative. Given Young Master Jin Ling's arrogance, why bother showing filial piety to an unrelated Ye family elder?

Because of his affection for Ye Wu, does he love her family too?

Let's not forget, his marriage to Ye Wu hasn't been finalized yet. Over the years, he has tirelessly pursued Ye Wu, but she has never agreed.

She hasn't even shown Young Master Jin Ling a kind face.

Imagine, in such a situation, Young Master Jin Ling's filial piety to Master Ye comes off as rather ludicrous.

It might make sense if he were trying to curry favor with Master Ye.

Unfortunately, Young Master Jin Ling was too clever by half, overacting the part. He didn't grasp the balance.

If Young Master Jin Ling were dealing with ordinary people, they might find his actions quite flattering.

But Master Ye, an old monster who has lived for hundreds of thousands of years, is already a master. Beyond that, he's the wisest of the wise.

He could predict what Young Master Jin Ling was up to.

"These betrothal gifts truly tempt the old me. Master Jing, you are considerate. But my daughter is grown up and has her own opinions. As her father, I can't forcefully make decisions for her, can I? As you all saw earlier, when she gets stubborn, she won't listen to anyone, even wanting to elope with this young man named Chu Feng."

Master Ye did not directly decline Young Master Jin Ling's marriage proposal.

Instead, he handed this decision over to his daughter.

"Father, I knew you love me." Ye Wu's face already had a happy smile. "So, please take these betrothal gifts back! In short, Jin Lingjing isn't my type; he doesn't suit my taste."

Ye Wu already had Ye Yanying on her side, and with Master Ye relaxing his stance as well.

She could completely have her own say in her marriage.

Immediately, without further ado, she coldly refused the marriage on the spot.

"This... Miss Ye Wu, perhaps reconsider. As long as the Ye Family accepts these eight betrothal gifts, your strength can immediately ascend to a new level." Chief Clerk Feihong's expression became somewhat stiff.

Overconfident, it seems they will return empty-handed.
