Chapter 202: Tongxuan? Immortality? That’s not possible
"Well, you left so quickly. I wanted to have some conversation with you since we will be relatives in the future after all..." Qu Tingchun had just finished his work and was about to turn around to greet Mrs. Mu, but found that she had already left.
Qu Tingchun couldn't help but feel regretful. "I originally wanted to have a good talk about the betrothal gifts and dowry. My Xiaofeng is now the number one genius in Qingzhou. It would be unreasonable not to give her a little more dowry."
"Xiaofeng's family is not doing well...Oh, Xiaofeng only has me as his family now, so I must speak well for him and fight for his interests."
Qu Tingchun muttered, glancing at the direction where Madam Mu had left. "Are they going to catch an adulterer? I hope that young couple, with their burning desires, won't do anything they shouldn't."
"Well, if we do it, the dowry will have to be larger... or perhaps, less would be acceptable?"
Qu Tingchun fell into deep thought.
In the small courtyard, Chen Feng and Mu Linlin hugged each other, their eyes full of affection, everything was said without words.
Mu Linlin said, "You almost missed the game this time. I thought you were in danger."
Chen Feng shook his head. "It was just a false alarm, not a big deal...I wonder if Auntie is satisfied with my performance just now?"
As he spoke, Chen Feng couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He felt that his behavior just now was too ruthless.
What should I do if Madam Mu misunderstands me?
Chen Feng didn't care about Chen Yunxue's opinion, nor did he care whether Chen Jinling was an evil cultivator, and he didn't care about the outside world's public opinion about him.
But he still cared about Madam Mu. After all, whether she was willing to nod her head would determine whether his and Mu Linlin's future would be smooth.
"Humph, what does it matter if she's satisfied or not? Anyway, your performance is already very good. Moreover, you can actually kill Tianyuan realm..."
Mu Linlin exclaimed, "Xiaofeng, you've given me another big surprise. I used to worry about not being able to catch up with you, but now I'm not worried anymore. I've given up hope."
"Why are you chasing me? We will always walk side by side..."
Chen Feng smiled and said, "I still have to satisfy my aunt. Otherwise, how can I take you away from the Mu family?"
Mu Linlin's eyes rolled, "At worst, we can just elope..."
Before he finished speaking, a bland voice came from outside the yard.
"Hugging and kissing in broad daylight, and even eloping?"
Madam Mu stood outside the courtyard and spoke calmly, "Mu Linlin, you have indeed become more capable. Do you think I can't restrict you?"
Mu Linlin was frightened, but she did not let go of Chen Feng. She turned to look at Madam Mu with a look of vigilance: "You said at the beginning that if Chen Feng reached the Tianyuan realm, you would let us go free."
"Mother, you can't go back on your word... Xiaofeng is now able to kill a Tianyuan realm cultivator. He has already fulfilled your request. You can't make things difficult for him."
Chen Feng also looked at Madam Mu and said, "Aunt."
Madam Mu looked at Mu Linlin's hand tightly hugging Chen Feng's waist, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes, but she immediately looked at Chen Feng and smiled slightly: "Relax a little, it's nothing serious..."
"I came here this time, firstly to bring Mu Linlin back to the Mu family, and secondly to see you."
"Well, I did say that as long as you can reach the Tianyuan realm, I won't make things difficult for you... I won't break my promise, you can rest assured."
Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face became even brighter. "Thank you, auntie..."
However, the next moment, Madam Mu changed the subject and said, "But, I still want to take Mu Linlin away."
"Why?!"
Before Chen Feng could speak, Mu Linlin screamed, her eyes red: "You, what else do you want me to do? What else do you want from Chen Feng?!"
"Are you really going to push me into this fire pit? You are obviously my mother, why do you have to..."
Madam Mu said calmly, "Don't be excited. I brought you back to help you escape."
"Linlin, I will help you with the matter concerning our ancestors, but if you don't return this time, the Mu family will think you've betrayed the family and won't treat you kindly."
"Although I am nominally in charge of the Mu family, you should know that this is not the case at all. Those old stubborn people are not so easy to talk to."
"You have to come back with me and remove the Charming Bone Fire from your body. Only then can I help you escape."
Mu Linlin's face turned pale when she heard this.
Chen Feng frowned, "Take out the Charming Bone Fire? But Linlin is born with a charming body. If the Charming Bone Fire is taken out, it will affect the essence..."
If the root cause is affected, the future prospects will be almost ruined.
Although Mu Linlin is not as good as Chen Feng, if she practices seriously, she can be regarded as one of the best among the younger generation in Qingzhou in terms of both cultivation and alchemy.
But if the fire of charm is taken out, it is like taking away the origin, and one will move towards mediocrity in the future.
At this moment, Chen Feng suddenly understood why Mu Linlin had stayed in Lihuo City in his previous life and was the only seventh-level alchemist in Lihuo City.
Logically speaking, with Mu Linlin's talent, ten years would be enough for her to surpass the ninth level.
Perhaps in her previous life, Mu Linlin also chose to remove the Charming Bone Fire in order to avoid the murderous hands of her ancestors...
Being born with a special physique has always been a mixed blessing. While you can possess special talents, you can also suffer backlash.
Mu Linlin was born with a charming nature, so when she grew up to a certain point, her charm would erupt and torture her, but it also made her talent extraordinary.
But if the fire of her charm is taken away, the fire will still torment her, but her gift will no longer exist.
Being born with a charming body only has disadvantages.
A trace of struggle appeared on Mu Linlin's face. She then glanced at Chen Feng and took a deep breath. "Okay, I can agree to this."
Madam Mu glanced at her, a trace of sadness appearing between her brows.
"Linlin, it's..."
Chen Feng suddenly spoke at this time: "I can't agree to this."
Mrs. Mu was stunned, and Mu Linlin also turned her head to look. Chen Feng had just said that he should care about Mrs. Mu's opinion.
But now, is he disobeying Madam Mu for his own sake? !
Mu Linlin immediately understood that Chen Feng only cared about her feelings from beginning to end.
Chen Feng looked at Madam Mu, "The fire of charm cannot be taken out."
Madam Mu raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Chen Feng, you may not know what this means?"
Chen Feng said quietly: "What is the cultivation level of the Mu family's ancestor?"
"Tongxuan? Immortality?"
"No matter what level of cultivation he has, if he wants to hurt Linlin, that's unacceptable..."
As he spoke, he took a half step forward: "Unless, you step over my dead body."
The tone was calm, but at this moment, it revealed the most resolute strength.
Madam Mu's mind suddenly trembled, especially when she met Chen Feng's gaze, as if she could see the sharp edge of a sword...
