Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor

"You're naturally accompanying me, your master, on a nice stroll through the residence's back garden!" Chu Feng exclaimed with great pleasure after successfully purchasing the residence and suppressing its malevolent aura.

Thus, he shamelessly flirted with the beauty, Li Shishi, right in front of all his subordinates.

"Humph, I don't want to!" Li Shishi was tremendously embarrassed and even more bashfully flushed. Her master was becoming increasingly frivolous.

Beixie National Master and the Northern Domain Three Evils were sneaking peeks at Chu Feng and Li Shishi with ambiguous looks, then left with a strange smile, knowing when to get out of the way. In fact, Chu Feng was also sending a message to the four of them.

Li Shishi was his woman, and no one was allowed to covet her.

The Beixie National Master might have been alright, being relatively upright. But the Northern Domain Three Evils were not kind, and with Li Shishi being a great beauty and not very strong, her situation was quite precarious while keeping their company for so long.

Now that Chu Feng declared his 'sovereignty' over Li Shishi, naturally, they wouldn't dare make a move on her.

Once the Northern Domain Three Evils and Beixie National Master left, Chu Feng's face lost its teasing smile, taking on a rare seriousness, yet his gaze softened more than ever before.

"Shishi, you've lost quite a bit of weight recently! They didn't mistreat you, did they?"

Li Shishi was stunned; she did not expect her master to show such concern for her.

"It's been fine, except for the time when the Evil Tumor Monk got drunk and harassed me. After that, the Poison Eye Dragon King gave him a severe lesson, and he never dared to offend me again."

Indeed, Li Shishi had faced danger.

However, Chu Feng wasn't too worried as he had told the Beixie National Master to secretly protect Li Shishi.

With the martial prowess of the Beixie National Master, handling the Northern Domain Three Evils was more than sufficient.

Moreover, the leader of the Northern Domain Three Evils, the Poison Eye Dragon King, had consumed Chu Feng's Puppet Elixir and was absolutely loyal to Chu Feng.

Relying on the second and the third of the evils, they couldn't stir up any significant trouble.

"Here are two Fourth Grade Talisman Pills for you! Keep them close so you can defend yourself in case of danger. The golden one is the Fourth Grade Gold Rune Body Protection Pill, and the red one is the Fourth Grade Flame Burst Pill. One for offense, one for defense, capable of instantly killing a Sword Saint Level expert, and definitely can injure a One-Star Sword God with no problems."

The Fourth Grade Talisman Pills crafted by Chu Feng himself were, in fact, even more potent than he claimed.

"Thank you, master!"

Li Shishi's beautiful eyes rippled like a still autumn pool, transparent and moving.

Chu Feng's care for her naturally made her feel exceedingly cherished.

"Alright, go and do something for me! Find some gossipy women, pay them a fee, and have them spread the news throughout the city. Tell them that in ten days, a new Elixir Medicine Shop will be opening on this street. There will be rare elixirs for sale at low prices. Additionally, there will be a large supply of ordinary elixirs for sale that can treat various complex diseases. They work the day of, no cure means double the money back! Also, let it slip to outsiders that the supply of elixirs is limited, and once they're gone, they're gone!"

Chu Feng, having lived for thousands of years, was an old monster. He once assisted his notable disciple, Chen Dazhong, in setting up the Treasure Pill Pavilion and had quite a knack for marketing strategies.

Creating buzz and advertising before the shop's opening was essential.

Paying gossipy women to spread 'insider tips' was the simplest and most effective method.

These women would not only advertise in the vegetable markets and street bazaars, but upon returning home, they'd surely whisper sweet nothings into their men's ears.

Eventually, their men, while drinking or working, would tell other men.

From one to ten, ten to a hundred, in just a few days, the entire Vermilion Bird Imperial City would be engrossed in a buzz, all discussing the news of Chu Feng's little shop.

"What shall we name our Elixir Medicine Shop? If others exploit the name, all our efforts would be in vain!" Li Shishi was evidently savvy with marketing strategies.

She made a lot of sense.

"We need a name that is imposing and also meaningful... What would be a good name?" Chu Feng pondered seriously. "Divine Alchemy Pavilion, that name is too trite! Immortal Grass Shop, that won't do either... Let's call it Longevity Hall!"

"Since ancient times, hasn't the pursuit of Alchemy been for eternal life?"

"One day, I will make the world know that I, the Eternal Life Pill Master, have returned - even more splendidly than in my last life. The elixirs I refine will be even more formidable."

After much thought, Chu Feng finally settled on the shop's name.

"Longevity Hall! That's a good name with profound significance and very commanding. It will definitely be well-received by the masses," praised Li Shishi.

Once the name was decided, Li Shishi showed no signs of leaving immediately.

Chu Feng was somewhat puzzled; this wasn't Li Shishi's usual style.

"Not leaving? Could it be you can't bear to part with me? How about we go to the back garden, find a secluded spot, and enjoy an evening in the moonlight?" Chu Feng suggested with a smile.

"Hmph! Can't you be serious for once!" Li Shishi cast a coquettishly shy glance at Chu Feng and hurried away as if escaping.

Chu Feng couldn't help but laugh heartily, chanting, "When life delights us, make the most of it, don't let the golden goblet face the moon alone!" Li Shishi stumbled almost falling over, taken by surprise.

She truly had no way of dealing with her master.

Despite being teased by Chu Feng and feeling embarrassed, deep inside, she felt a touch of sweetness.

Having dispatched all five subordinates to attend to their tasks and before the arrival of the craftsmen and laborers, Chu Feng roamed his mansion, inspecting and searching for a suitable Alchemy Field.

When he approached a spacious open-roofed hall near the back garden, he felt a subtle shift within himself.

The Nine Yang Strange Fire within him became significantly more active. Threads of Fire Spirit effortlessly entered Chu Feng's body.

"This place seems to be a forge specifically for weapon forging. The Fire Spirit here is so rich, clearly more than ten times stronger than outside. Could there be Earth fire drawn out here?"

Chu Feng scanned the desolate spacious hall, which was piled with Black Iron Ore and rusted iron lumps.

As for precious metals like copper and silver, none were to be seen.

They were probably already sold by the previous owners.

In the center, there was a furnace with a workstation for weapon forging. Other necessities like a large tank for quenching water and a stone for sharpening and grinding were all in order.

On the wall, a few rusted iron swords and Heart Protectors were hung, corroded beyond repair.

The ground and the furnace were covered with a layer of thick dust.

Using the Nine Yang Strange Fire's acute sense of Fire Spirit, Chu Feng quickly located the area with the richest concentration of Fire Spirit - right at the furnace.

After clearing the clutter beneath the cooking stove, Chu Feng's eyes lit up.

Buying this mansion was practically tailor-made for him, a stroke of incredible luck.
