Medicinal Pills, Choices

Lin Feng brought lunch to Ding Yun as usual.

Seeing today's medicinal meal, Ding Yun's appetite was whetted.

He ate ravenously, finishing all the food in no time and letting out a long, satisfied burp.

Lin Feng was already used to General Ding's slovenly appearance.

He immediately began to tidy up everything to take out.

"Hold on!"

"You ungrateful wretch, I didn't exert myself yesterday for nothing!"

At this moment, Ding Yun suddenly called out to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng froze.

He turned his head and asked Ding Yun with a bewildered expression.

"This subordinate does not know what General Ding is referring to?"

"Oh, really?"

Ding Yun looked at Lin Feng and smiled playfully.

"Yesterday, you, with one strike, took down that Xu..."

"Slow, slow, slow, hehe, General Ding, I remember now.

Yesterday, I found a thousand taels of silver notes in the courtyard!

They must have been dropped by you, sir!"

Lin Feng quickly stopped Ding Yun from continuing, his face shifting from confusion to a simple, honest smile.

He then took out a thousand taels of silver notes from his embrace.

He finally understood that the man in black yesterday was this General Ding.

Who had seen everything he did.

Fortunately, the other party's actions were only for self-protection.

And it was indeed his intervention that saved him from danger.

However, having to hand over this thousand taels before it had even warmed up, it was impossible to say he didn't feel a pang of regret!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk! I didn't expect you to strike it rich, kid!

I didn't see clearly at the time and thought it was just a small note of a few hundred taels!

I didn't expect it to be a thousand taels!"

"Slap, slap!"

Ding Yun clicked his tongue in amazement, flicking the silver note twice. The note made a crisp sound.

It seemed to strike Lin Feng's heart.

Making the corner of his mouth twitch in pain!

"General is joking, it was just good luck, finding it!"

Lin Feng tried his best to say this calmly.

"Haha, that was fun. But you don't need to look so glum.

It's just a little bit of money.

I've been going to the Spring Red Brothel too often lately and spent my monthly allowance early.

So I'm borrowing it from you for now."

Ding Yun looked at Lin Feng's pained face and laughed heartily.

"This is my token. Go to the treasury and exchange five Tiger Essence Pills and two Bone Forging Pills for me!"

Then, Ding Yun threw his General's token to Lin Feng.

The General's token wasn't much different from their student tokens.

Only the material was better, and the inscription was different.

Lin Feng took the greasy token and retreated.

Not long after, he went to the treasury and exchanged for the pills.

He returned the pills and the token to Ding Yun.

At this moment, to Lin Feng's surprise, Ding Yun only took back the token.

"You have a younger brother, and his aptitude is also good. If you can cultivate him.

And if you focus wholeheartedly, you will go even further!

The Tiger Essence Pills are for your brother, and the Bone Forging Pills are for yourself.

Now get lost!"

"I'm going to sleep!"

With that, Ding Yun lay down on the bed. The moment his head touched the pillow, a thunderous snore erupted!

Lin Feng was stunned!

He held the pills in his hand, deeply moved!

He had never imagined that in this chaotic world, besides his family, someone else would care about him so much!

They considered every aspect for him, even his family.

In fact, Lin Feng would have been immensely grateful even if Ding Yun hadn't given him these pills.

After all, the man had saved him.

And now, with these pills, especially the Bone Forging Pills.

Bone Forging Pills were practically impossible to buy with money in the outside world!

He made a silent vow in his heart.

In the future, when his strength was sufficient, no matter what help General Ding needed, he would do his utmost to assist!

Lin Feng cupped his hands in a salute towards Ding Yun and quietly withdrew from the room.

"This General Ding is truly elusive. He's usually just sleeping in his room, yet he even knows that A Yu has good potential!"

Lin Feng sighed inwardly.

He then continued practicing his saber techniques in the courtyard.

The Xu Family, Xu San looked at the uniform left behind by his brother, his heart filled with rage and grief!

He hadn't expected his brother to be so brutally murdered and his body disposed of!

This was clearly a murder, yet the authorities had merely gone through the motions.

Looking at Xu Xiong lying on the bed, Xu San's heart grew increasingly heavy!

The two people closest to him, one dead, one injured!

And the murderer was still at large!

He had some connections within the Demon Purging Division, and he had heard that Lin Feng had already advanced to the early Bone Forging Realm.

His cultivation level was the same as his own.

Furthermore, Sun Ming, the expert from the Green Snake Gang sent by Xu Qiang, had mysteriously died in a sea of fire last night!

When he was found, only bones remained, burned to a crisp!

Now, he knew he couldn't touch Lin Feng on his own.

He was already old, and it had taken him a long time to reach the early Bone Forging stage, and that was only with the vast resources provided by Xu Qiang.

It was a testament to his poor talent!

"Lin Feng! And the murderer of my brother, you two just wait! I, Xu San, will definitely not let you go!"

He then picked up a piece of paper and began to write.

Now that the Xu Family's greatest support was gone, they would easily be swallowed whole in Kaiyang County.

He was going to bet it all!

After avenging his brother, he would sell off their assets and leave this place with Xu Xiong!

They had made quite a few enemies over the years.

If he delayed, it would be too late!

Xu San's personality was ruthless. Years ago, he and his brother had harmed the Zhang Wenyuan family.

He had been the more decisive and brutal one. If Xu Qiang hadn't lusted after Zhang Wenyuan's wife.

Liu Qi and Zhang Wenyuan's son wouldn't have escaped.

And Xu Qiang wouldn't have lost his "roots," almost causing the Xu family to become extinct!

After finishing the letter, Xu San summoned the housekeeper and gave him instructions.

Then, taking the family's silver notes, he walked out the door.

As soon as he stepped outside, Xu San vaguely noticed several people watching their house.

This made him feel even more pressed for time.

Before long, he arrived at Wu Hua's residence.

"Chief Constable, you must seek justice for Xu Qiang! He was clearly murdered. Why are you saying he was killed by a monster?"

Xu San cried out to Wu Hua.

"Old Xu, this is a decision from above. As a mere captain, I have no say in front of all you esteemed lords!"

Wu Hua looked helpless.

He naturally knew the cause of Xu Qiang's death, but without concrete evidence, he, as the Chief Constable, was just a temporary worker. If it weren't for his decent cultivation, the County Magistrate would have discarded him without a second thought.

Did he dare investigate the Demon Purging Division?

Wasn't that just asking for trouble?

Xu San naturally didn't believe Wu Hua's words. With the Xu family in dire straits, he didn't have time to play word games with Wu Hua!

"Lord Wu, let's cut to the chase!

Since my brother's revenge cannot be avenged for now.

You must have a way to deal with Lin Feng, the murderer of my son, right?"

As Xu San spoke, he took out a stack of silver notes and placed them on Wu Hua's desk, each worth a thousand taels.

Wu Hua had heard about the dispute between Lin Feng and Xu Xiong from Xu Qiang.

But now, in just a few days, Lin Feng had become a student of the Demon Purging Division in the Bone Forging Realm.

In terms of status, he wasn't much inferior to Wu Hua.

"Old Xu, you should keep this money!"

Wu Hua pushed the silver notes back, indicating his decision.

"Heh heh, Chief Constable Wu had best accept this silver.

Otherwise, the matter of the murder of Zhang Wenyuan's family back then might accidentally be leaked.

After all, Zhang Wenyuan was a student of the Demon Purging Division. Even after more than ten years, the Demon Purging Division might thoroughly investigate out of pride!"

At this moment, Xu San sneered.

Upon hearing this, Wu Hua's aura instantly turned violent. In the next moment, he was about to attack and crush Xu San before him!

"Chief Constable Wu, please calm your anger. If I suddenly die soon, the news will likely spread throughout the city by the next day!"

Xu San's expression changed drastically as he felt Wu Hua's pressure, but he still managed to speak.

"As long as Lin Feng is dead, and the person who killed my brother is brought to justice, I will immediately take my son and leave Kaiyang County, never to return!"

Wu Hua fell into a moment of quiet, and finally, the killing intent emanating from him dissipated.

Xu San breathed a sigh of relief!

"I will investigate who killed Xu Qiang, but no matter what, you must leave this place within a month, whether there is a result or not!

After a month, I will take Lin Feng's head!

Once Lin Feng is dead, it will be easy to track down your Xu family.

We cannot act now, unless you leave immediately!"

"Leave now, or wait a month, the decision is yours!"

Finally, Wu Hua gave Xu San two choices!
