Hide in The Immortal Cultivation World, Strike Hard in the Martial World
Chapter 274 - 146 Foundation Establishment Opportunity

After Tan Feng left, Song Chengcheng had a serious look on her face:

"Daoist Chen, how did you get involved with this son of privilege, Tan Feng? He recently became the disciple of a pseudo-core level elder from my Qinglong Island.

He tends to act very arrogantly. It's best not to provoke him."

Chen Yi gave a wry smile,

"I didn't provoke him. I really don't know why he came to my shop acting all crazy."

Chen Yi was genuinely confused. During this period, other than killing a demon cultivator named Tan Qingzhi, he...wait a minute!

Tan Qing? Tan Feng?

They both have the same surname, could it be a coincidence?

A sudden realization made Chen Yi pause. If this was true, he needed to be careful.

Despite this, Chen Yi wasn't overly worried.

"Tan Feng is probably here because I'm Shen Fang's neighbor and Little Emei used to work with Shen Fang. He's probably investigating the secret that Tan Qing mentioned before his death?"

Luckily, I don't know any secrets.

However,

Although it is highly unlikely for them to suspect that Chen Yi, an eighth layer Qi cultivator and a turtle cultivator, is the real killer of the ghost shadow,

But even if he's after Little Emei, it's not acceptable,

The secret that Emei possesses cannot be revealed.

Thinking of this, Chen Yi first said to Emei:

"The Third Young Master of the Tan Family is probably attracted to you. You know your situation better than I and what will happen if you fall into his hands. You should retreat to the Cave Mansion for a while and not come to the front hall for a number of years."

Emei bowed her head respectfully and acknowledged, then she slowly retreated towards the Cave Mansion.

Seeing this, the three of them did not obstruct. After they roughly decrypted Emei's disguise, they understood the situation,

Especially Wang Tengfei, his face was rather peculiar,

Tan Feng is a lecherous character. Earlier when he went to Zhao Family Island, he had his eye on Zhao Chengjing and even wanted to take her as his concubine but failed,

After joining Qinglong Island, Tan Feng repeatedly harassed Song Chengcheng and had even warned Chen Yi to keep his little brother under control,

Song Chengcheng didn't give Tan Feng any chances, but neither did she deliberately offend him,

Now, Tan Feng has come to Wangyue Island, and within just over a year he has coveted a lunar beauty like the young maid working for Chen Yi. He definitely wanted to make a move.

If it wasn't for the timely arrival of the three of them, Chen Yi probably wouldn't have been able to protect his maid.

Wang Tengfei was barely containing his laughter because, he wasn't sure if it was a clash of romantic interests between Chen Yi and Tan Feng,

But the several people Tan Feng had set his sights on were all those associated with Chen Yi...

Meanwhile, Zhao Chengyu and Song Chengcheng could only half understand the situation. Although they had figured out the reason, one of them had their own sister involved while the other was a party to the matter, so naturally they didn't find it humorous.

Song Chengcheng changed her tone,

"Daoist Chen, we have no right to meddle with your romantic affairs, but you are now targeted by Tan Feng. This time we were able to protect you, but we can't always be here. You have to be careful."

Upon hearing this, Wang Tengfei laughed indifferently, "Don't underestimate Daoist Chen, he just wouldn't bother to compete. Otherwise, he wouldn't be afraid of Tan Feng."

Oh?

The other two looked at Chen Yi with a surprised glance. It seemed like it was their first time meeting Chen Yi,

An eighth layer Qi cultivator, what makes him unafraid of Qinglong Island's foundation-establishment genius Tan Feng?

With a bitter smile, Chen Yi waved it off,

"No, no.

I appreciate your concern, my friends. Actually, even in your absence, Tan Feng wouldn't dare do anything to me.

I am a respectable businessman in Wangyue City who pays his rent. He wouldn't dare make a move within city limits.

As for being targeted, I can always just stay in the city!"

Upon hearing this, their expressions turned weird because they recalled Chen Yi's twenty years stay on Zhao Family Island. And now he was convincingly acting like a turtle cultivator?

However, seeing Chen Yi acting this way, they weren't really worried,

"Alright then, Daoist Chen, if you need us, just contact us at our residence."

After Song Chengcheng and Wang Tengfei finished speaking, they stepped back, leaving the floor to Zhao Chengyu,

They had come for Zhao Chengyu's business.

Zhao Chengyu's face was a bit pale, showing signs of sickness. He stepped forward and handed a jade box to Chen Yi:

"Brother Chen, this is a three hundred year old Fire Spirit Fruit. It contains fiery spiritual power. Do you think it could heal my internal injuries?"

When Zhao Chengyu handed the Fire Spirit Fruit to Chen Yi, a look of unease crossed his face,

Before at the Zhao Family, he was an esteemed son, a dual spirit rooted genius and the future successor of the family leader,

While Chen Yi was just an outsider who could only stay at the Zhao Family's behest,

Now, even though Zhao Chengyu has successfully established foundation, and Chen Yi is still at the eighth layer of Qi cultivation,

Chen Yi was his main physician, whether his illness could be cured, his future advancements and remaining lifespan all depended upon Chen Yi,

He had a feeling of having his fate controlled by another person, which naturally made him uneasy.

If Chen Yi was a dishonorable physician, he could simply say that this fruit wouldn't work and he couldn't cure Chengyu, but still keep the fruit for his own cultivation, Zhao Chengyu wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

On the contrary, Chen Yi opened the jade box and after taking a look, he gave Zhao Chengyu a reassuring nod:

"Not bad. While fire attribute spirit fruits are usually fierce and are not suitable for healing, the fact that you cultivate a fire attribute martial method coincides with the attributes of this fruit, making it suitable for you."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Chengyu showed a look of joy, "Really? Thank you so much, Brother Chen!"

Song Chengcheng and Wang Tengfei also let out a sigh of relief. Their trip involved a series of muddled adventures and countless dangerous moments. Fortunately, after one year of effort, they had obtained this 300-year-old spirit fruit,

If it had proven to be unusable, they might have had to travel to the Secret Realm again, the outcome of which they could not guarantee.
