Sensing that overwhelming pressure that left him without even the will to resist, Cao Dan's face suddenly changed drastically. Then he suddenly remembered that there were still some experts standing at his side.

He hurriedly shouted toward the two red-robed elders behind him and the gray-robed elder beside him: "Two Elders, Ku Yi Zun Zhe, quickly stop this man for me!"

"Half-Step Dou Zun?!"

At the sight of that suddenly unleashed pressure, the gray-robed elder, who had not moved a muscle from beginning to end, finally raised his eyes and frowned.

A Half-Step Dou Zun, while not the same as a true Dou Zun like himself, was still no trivial thing. And the other party was clearly under thirty, yet already possessed such terrifying strength. This could not be a simple figure.

Yet even as he spoke, the gray-robed elder still slowly took a step forward. As that step landed, a dreadful aura rose like a tidal wave, instantly blocking Lin Feng's pressure with ease.

As for the two red-robed elders, they quickly stepped up as well, forming a defensive posture. After all, judging from the aura just now, Lin Feng's group was definitely not simple.

The crowd around them was equally shocked by the scene.

Among them were many powerful figures who could all sense that terrifying pressure Lin Feng had released earlier.

"Damn it, just who is this guy?"

Now that Ku Yi Zun Zhe had blocked that pressure, Cao Dan let out a breath and thought with a grave expression. Though arrogant because of the Cao Clan's strength, he wasn't so brainless as to miss the obvious.

This man before him, so young yet so strong, clearly was no ordinary person. With that in mind, Cao Dan cupped his hands and said: "I am Cao Dan of the Cao Clan, may I ask who this gentleman is…"

"Hehe, I, Lin Feng, am just a nameless junior. How could I be qualified to exchange words with Young Master Cao? Still, I advise you, it's best to step aside."

Lin Feng gave a light laugh and said casually.

Hearing that nonchalant tone, Cao Dan's brows knit again. The other's attitude clearly showed he didn't take him seriously at all.

Cao Dan's face sank as he threatened: "Lin Feng, is it? I admit, for you to have such strength at your age, your talent is indeed outstanding. But before my Cao Clan, that talent is far from enough!"

"Oh, the Cao Clan's influence is indeed impressive. But while I don't intend to stir up trouble with your Cao Clan, if you really want to declare war in their name, I won't be afraid."

Lin Feng directly ignored the threat, still laughing lightly.

At these words, the gray-robed elder's deeply wrinkled brow furrowed slightly, and he slowly took another step forward.

"One more step and you will stay here. With just your One-Star Dou Zun strength, you don't have the qualifications to run wild here!"

But as his foot fell, a cold, clear voice rang in his ears.

Immediately after, a terrifying pressure swept down on the gray-robed elder and the three others, so overwhelming they could barely move. That aura only lasted for a brief instant before vanishing.

When it faded, the gray-robed elder's face was filled with disbelief, his eyes carrying a trace of fear as they fixed on Xiao Yixian. He could sense that she too was a Dou Zun expert—and her level was far above his.

Realizing they would gain no advantage, the gray-robed elder quickly whispered to Cao Dan: "Let it go for today. Their strength is far beyond what we can match."

Hearing this, Cao Dan could only grit his teeth and spit out a threat: "Lin Feng, don't get too full of yourself. Crossing my Cao Clan is no joke. This time this Young Master may not be able to do anything to you, but next time, I'll return with an even stronger force. I'll see then how far that Dou Zun at your side can carry you!"

After saying that, he turned around and left the place.

After all, since the strongest person on their side had already spoken that way, if he stayed any longer, he would only be asking for trouble.

Seeing the former leave after throwing out some harsh words, Lin Feng's brows furrowed slightly. But considering that this was the Pill Tower, it wasn't appropriate to make a move and teach them a lesson, so he didn't say anything further.

"Don't worry, by tomorrow those people will be itching all over. And the symptoms will last for several days, I'm sure it will leave them with a very deep impression."

At this moment, Xiao Yixian suddenly sent a voice transmission.

Hearing her words, the frown on Lin Feng's face instantly relaxed. He then pulled Xiao Yixian's delicate body into his arms, kissed her lightly, and said with a grin, "Hehe, my Xian'er still understands me best, let me reward you a little."

"Behave yourself, this is a public place."

Xiao Yixian rolled her eyes, speaking with mock annoyance.

As for the onlookers nearby, after seeing the Cao Clan's group scurrying away with their tails between their legs, they too quickly dispersed. However, it was clear that today's incident would soon spread like wildfire throughout the Holy Pill City.

After all, the Cao Clan's influence in recent years had been at its peak. And now, to flee so pathetically in front of a crowd, naturally everyone wanted to see how exactly the Cao Clan planned to recover their face.

After all, it had been a long time since the Holy Pill City had such a good show. As for what would happen later with Lin Feng and his group, they naturally didn't care.

"Lin Feng, Xin Lan, are you both alright? I just heard that Cao Dan went looking for trouble with you."

At this moment, Ye Zhong's anxious voice suddenly rang in the ears of Lin Feng and the two women.

Hearing this, Lin Feng chuckled and said, "We're fine, that guy came to cause trouble, but after seeing our strength, he ran away with his tail between his legs."

"Phew, as long as you're alright."

Hearing Lin Feng's words, Ye Zhong finally let out a long sigh of relief.

However, a trace of helplessness still flashed across his eyes. From what he knew of Cao Dan, this man was extremely arrogant. Back when he had come to discuss the marriage alliance between the Cao Clan and his Ye Clan, he had been just as overbearing.

Although today he was forced back by Lin Feng, given the chance, he would definitely make a comeback later. Then, Ye Zhong slapped his forehead and said, "Because of that Cao Dan matter earlier, I almost forgot, I've already arranged it—you can now go apply for your alchemist rank."

Hearing this, Xiao Yixian's eyes instantly lit up with expectation, and she urged, "Then let's go quickly."

Being someone who loved alchemy deeply, she naturally yearned for an official rank badge from the Alchemist's Holy Land. Now that Ye Zhong had said it was possible, she couldn't help but feel impatient.

"Elder Ye Zhong, please lead the way for us."

Seeing her so eager, Lin Feng chuckled softly, then gently held the hands of the two women, and spoke to Ye Zhong.
