"Afu, this is a longevity pill, you can eat it directly. This is a qi-refining pill, you use it to make soup, drink it over seven days, and you can only use one a month. This bone-strengthening pill is the same, and this..."
Yang Fu was increasingly astonished as he listened. These were all low-grade pills. Occasionally, he would hear of a disciple who had advanced in their cultivation bringing one home for their family, and that would make a large circle of people around them envious and jealous.
Now Ye Feng was handing him bottles one by one, including this longevity pill.
I've never even heard of his name before; he must be worth a lot of spirit stones.
Yang Fu took out five spirit crystals he had saved and handed them to Ye Feng.
"Young Master, your cultivation in the sect has been tough. Please take all of this. Now that you've been promoted to inner disciple, I won't have to pay rent anymore, so I have no use for this... It's just a bit short..."
The pills Ye Feng casually takes out now are worth dozens of spirit stones each, so he probably won't need this little bit of spirit crystal.
Unexpectedly, Ye Feng took it.
"It'll come in handy. Spirit stones are always in short supply. I'll be learning alchemy from my master in the future, and there will be many expenses, so I won't stand on ceremony with you."
As he spoke, he took out a jade talisman from his waist, threaded it with a thin thread, and
"This is a talisman that I specially obtained from someone. Wear it, and it will ensure you live a long and healthy life!"
Yang Fu smiled and let Ye Feng put it on him, feeling incredibly warm at Ye Feng's concern.
As for living to a ripe old age, he didn't care at all. Now he had no worries, and he would have no regrets whether he lived or died...
However, the young master is still short of money, so I should help him plant more spirit grains, which will help him in some way.
If he had known that this amulet could withstand damage from Foundation Establishment cultivators, he probably would have refused it even if it meant death.
Although Ye Feng said he didn't need these medicinal herbs, Yang Fu still decided to save them for Ye Feng, thinking that he could sell them for spirit stones later.
Ye Feng could tell what Yang Fu was thinking just by looking at him, and insisted on watching Yang Fu take the longevity pill.
As for the others, he couldn't rush to take them, and he didn't have a good solution. Even if he showed Yang Fu his spirit stones, he figured Yang Fu still wouldn't be willing to eat them.
To completely put his mind at ease, I guess I'll have to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage myself.
Then I can open a villa on the mountain, recruit two attendants, and bring Yang Fu there to enjoy a life of luxury.
"Afu, I'm going back to Liuyun Town for a mission this time. Do you know anyone here who I can pass on a message for you?"
Ye Feng had originally planned to take him along, but now that a junior sister was with him, the priority was definitely the mission—to kill the tiger demon, which might be dangerous.
If I bring Yang Fu along, I might have to reveal my cultivation level. It's better to go alone so I can adapt to the situation.
"What acquaintances do I have left..."
As Yang Fu spoke, his eyes flickered, and he turned around, moving a gray brick from the corner of the wall and taking out a small box.
"This was left behind by the master and mistress... Now that the young master has grown up, it's time to hand it over to you."
Yang Fu seemed to relax as he placed the box in Ye Feng's hands.
Ye Feng felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at him.
Is this guy going to kick the bucket right now? If I hadn't just forced him to take the longevity pill... it's really hard to say.
Ye Feng put the box into his storage belt, said goodbye to Yang Fu,
"Uncle Fu, remember to take these pills. I have a mission to complete, so I'll be leaving now."
Finally, he patted Yang Fu on the shoulder.
"In five years at most, I'll marry a few fairies. I'll need you to help me take care of the children then. Remember to eat well and don't worry about wasting food. I'll refine pills myself later, so I'll have plenty of these."
Yang Fu escorted Ye Feng to the village entrance until he was out of sight before leaving.
He turned around and was stopped in the road by Liang Ze.
"Brother Yang, look at me, I'm getting old, and I'm really finding it harder and harder to be the village chief..."
Finally, after Yang Fu's repeated refusals, they could only add one more position and made him the deputy village chief...

The next day, the two changed into casual clothes and rode their horses towards Liuyun Town.
"My senior brother has such a good relationship with his servants!"
This journey is over two hundred kilometers long, and even riding the fast horses from the post stations, it would take until nightfall to arrive.
Ye Feng always kept his eyes closed and didn't speak, so Kou Ying had to find something to say.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng opened his eyes and said with a smile,
“This is not a servant; he raised me since I was a child.”
Having inherited the original owner's memories, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel grateful to Yang Fu.
However, given the original owner's limited abilities, even if she wanted to repay Yang Fu, she lacked the capacity. Therefore, she often treated Yang Fu with indifference, using this to conceal her true feelings.
Fortunately, although the original owner was a simp, he knew what kind of person Ouyang Yan was, so he didn't let Ye Feng fulfill his obsession.
However, the things left behind by the original owner's parents gave Ye Feng a big surprise.
The box contained few items, just some inexpensive souvenirs and the marriage certificate with the Ouyang family. The surprise was another token that was neither wood nor iron.
It's actually a spiritual artifact, a level higher than a magic weapon!
However, the spiritual energy inside had disappeared, and since Ye Wenyuan and his wife were only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, they were unable to establish a master.
Of course, even for Ye Feng, a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, recognizing a master would be quite a challenge.
It took him four or five times the power of a seventh-level Qi Refining cultivator for half a night and a whole morning to finally get the token to recognize him as its owner.
"Caoyang Sect... Sect Master's Token!!"
Holy crap....
Aside from controlling the sect's formations and representing the sect leader, the sect leader's token has virtually no other function.
Ye Feng had heard of this sect in class; it was a low-level, insignificant sect.
The sect's founder was a single Golden Core cultivator, who was later killed, leading to the sect's demise.
It's unclear how the token ended up in the hands of Ye Wenyuan and his wife...
Sigh, after all that effort, this is all I got...
Ye Feng was slightly disappointed, but then he thought that it was at least a spiritual artifact, and he comforted himself.
Even though it's only a low-grade item, it's still a spiritual artifact. Even if you sell it for money, it'll be worth fifty or sixty thousand!
Besides, it's a sect leader's token, with such great symbolic significance, adding thirty or forty thousand isn't unreasonable...
In high spirits, Ye Feng quickened his pace.
"Hurry up and get there soon, I'll treat you to something good!"
Seeing that Ye Feng was no longer "dozing off," Kou Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief and spurred her horse to catch up with him.

Inside the dark, secret room, the three sat in a circle.
The person on the left started to complain.
"We've already sacrificed so many people, but the formation still hasn't activated. We've run out of maids and servants to deal with this, and everyone's panicking. What are we going to do?"
The person on the right is also sighing.
"This can't go on. Let's target some ordinary people with no connections; that will be faster."
The person in the middle shook his head in opposition.
"Last time, the tiger demon killed an outer disciple of the Qingyun Sect. Someone will definitely come to investigate soon. I've already attracted a tiger demon that's about at the fifth level of Qi Refining. I'll make further plans after the Qingyun Sect people leave."
The three quickly came up with a plan, and the two on either side left on their own.
The man in the middle looked at the two figures as they walked away, a hint of resentment on his face.
If I hadn't been injured and unconscious back then, losing the token, I wouldn't have needed to feign friendship with these two.
But now, this is Qingyun Sect territory. Without these two, the slightest disturbance could mean certain death.
"I just hope what's inside is still there... Most importantly, the Foundation Establishment Pill, and even a Foundation Establishment Fruit Tree!"
