Chapter 92: Separation (1/2)

After Patriarch Feng waking up from his slumber, life in City Lord Mansion was peaceful but busy.

Aside from occasional hostile glances from certain soon-to-be father-in-law at his soon-to-be daughter-in-law; occasional bickering from father and daughter; and occasional chiding from scary-when-angry mother, the time passed rather smoothly.

But, it didn't last long and turned better only in a week due to a big gift from Snowy.

After receiving the gift, Patriarch Feng often hummed and made a big prideful grin as he looked at Madam Feng, who gently caressed her stomach with a shy but content expression.

It was a big gift indeed.

When Snowy told Feng Xue that she wanted to give a conceiving assisting medicine as a gift to her parent, Feng Xue felt a bit complicated.

Of course, she was happy for her parents that always want to get her another sibling.

Feng Xue, who had a dream to one day see the big world and stood in the summits of experts, also felt reassured that at least her parent wouldn't felt lonely when she wasn't around.

But, given that her age, according to the custom of the world, which already in the age of having a baby herself, having a baby sibling made her rather fearful.

What if her sibling called her aunt instead of big sister?

It was rather a silly concern, but still a concern nonetheless.

The dealing with Grand Alchemist Chen also advanced without a hitch.

For two weeks, Snowy focused on refining pills that could fasten Patriarch Feng's recovery while guiding Master Chen Xi in her spare time.

On the other hand, Master Chen Xi also start to hold his side of the deal.

He already made several batches of pills for Feng Family, practically elevating their overall strength to another level.

Their force was now several times stronger than at the time of Yan Family's assault.

It can be said that among the Great Family, Feng Family's power should be in the upper-middle. And, with several years more, they could be in the top three.

Master Chen Xi was also eager to talk with Patriarch Feng about the new business.

If this plan succeeded, the new pill shop will become the new pillar of the Feng Family's power.

Furthermore, it will allow them to make a connection with more high-standing force and big shots in Eastern Region.

As the Feng Family represented the mark of the Phoenix, it can be said that they underwent rebirth from the ash, gaining fortune from misfortune.

Thus, the new shop would be called Nirvana Pill Hall.

As for the matter of cooperation with the Pill Haven Sect, it could only be put aside for now until Alchemist Chen Xi returned to the sect and mediated the cooperation.

The days passed smoothly.

Feng Xue started to cultivate again after her father's condition got better.

This was the first time she had properly cultivated after her breakthrough to Golden Core Stage.

To her surprise, her cultivation speed improves by leap and bound.

If her previous cultivation speed was akin to fill a bottle with water by putting it under the drizzle, then her current speed was akin to fill the bottle by directly scooped it into a small stream.

Moreover, she also gained significant insight into her bloodline's secret and comprehend true fire law, the most profound law of fire element.

Her golden core was also slightly changing as more and more runes appeared on the surface of her core.

Currently, her golden core appeared to be half golden and half crimson in color.

This transformation startled Elder Yang as he Feng Xue's cultivation before quickly grinning and laughing, greatly pleased.

How could he not be happy?

His prized disciple actually had one of those cores that were only mentioned in the legend!

Elemental core!

Feng Xue's Golden Core transformed into an Elemental Core!

The legends said that the elemental core only appeared once in one thousand years!

But soon, his expression turned cautious and solemn.

This matter could be a blessing or disaster.

As the saying goes, Tall trees attract the Wind.

The Eastern Region might look like peace on the surface but the undercurrent was violently stirring.
