"Tsk tsk, that fatty is probably doomed."

"That's the Frozen Emperor, after all. Although that brat has a strong Despicable Donkey by his side, encountering the Frozen Emperor means certain death!"

"What a pity, that fatty seems to be an Alchemy Grandmaster. Being able to refine an elixir that causes a Heaven and Earth Phenomenon must mean he's at least a Fifth-rank Alchemist."

Countless passersby watched the scene from afar, thinking that with even the Frozen Emperor stepping in, that fatty wouldn't escape even with wings.

Ling Feng frowned slightly. The old man called the Frozen Emperor exuded a bone-chilling aura, somewhat akin to Yaan Jinghong, but Yaan Jinghong's coldness was like child's play compared to this person.

This person is likely a High-Level Human Emperor!

A black shadow flashed, and the Despicable Donkey flew beside Ling Feng, also showing a trace of seriousness.

A High-Level Human Emperor is absolutely not to be underestimated!

"You troublesome brat, you really messed up big time this time."

The Despicable Donkey muttered.

Ling Feng gave a wry smile. Who would have thought the Frozen Emperor was nearby? He originally planned to eliminate Murong Qianjun and his son first, then use the Thousand Mechanism Transformation to change his face. By then, who would know Murong Qianjun and his son were killed by him?

But plans couldn't keep up with changes. Now that things had come to this, there was no choice but to fight with all his might.

"Kid, you sure have guts!"

At this moment, the Frozen Emperor across from them fixed his icy gaze on Ling Feng and the Despicable Donkey, assessing the peculiar duo and said coldly, "You should consider the master when beating a dog. My Murong family is not so easily bullied!"

"If people do not offend me, I will not offend them. If people offend me, I will repay them a hundredfold!"

Ling Feng's eyes sharpened, and he shouted loudly, "If it weren't for Murong Qianjun and his son's aggressive pushing, I wouldn't have bothered with these mad dogs."

Murong Qianjun immediately burst into tears, sobbing, "Frozen Emperor, don't listen to his nonsense! Clearly, he robbed my Yin Yang Stone at the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. My father just came to advise him to sell the Yin Yang Stone, but instead, he met a gruesome death!"

"Hahaha! How ridiculous!"

Hearing Murong Qianjun's shameless words, Ling Feng burst into laughter. This person's face was truly thicker than a city wall.

To lie so blatantly, even the Despicable Donkey couldn't match his shamelessness.

The Frozen Emperor, naturally no fool, saw through Murong Qianjun's deceit, but so what?

The Frozen Emperor snorted lightly, his gaze sharp as an arrow aimed at Ling Feng, and said coldly, "The death of my Murong Mansion's steward must be compensated with your life! End your life now and don't dirty my hands!"

"Wait a moment!"

At that moment, Murong Zining bit her lip, holding back a retching impulse, and whispered to the Frozen Emperor, "Uncle Frozen Emperor, although this person killed the steward, he might be a Sixth level Alchemist, and his cultivation is not yet at the Emperor Level. An Alchemist's Soul Talent generally far exceeds that of ordinary people. He is precisely the person we need."

The Frozen Emperor's eyelids twitched slightly, pondered for a moment, then turned his gaze back to Ling Feng, saying faintly, "Kid, our Murong family always cherishes talents. The grudge with Murong Qianjun can be written off, but you must agree to become our family's Chief Alchemist and serve us for at least ten years!"

Murong Zining took a deep breath, forcing a smile as she looked at Ling Feng's current appearance, "This... sir..."

Murong Zining swallowed hard, biting her lip, adjusting her breathing several times before barely accepting Ling Feng's astonishing appearance and continued, "This offer is quite generous. Becoming the Chief Alchemist of our Murong family comes with ample benefits and respect from all Cultivators in Deserted City. Any materials you need, our Murong family will strive to provide."

"If the sir is still hesitating, Zining can give you three days to consider, how about it?"

Ling Feng rubbed his nose, letting out a strange laugh. This Murong Zining was truly hypocritical, being able to speak with a charming smile in front of him despite his current visage.

But if she knew he was the one who made her dance in front of everyone, how would she look then?

"My name is Long Fei!"

Ling Feng squinted, his bead-sized eyes scanning Murong Zining, pretending to be lecherous, even swallowing mischievously to disgust her, "You're quite beautiful, I don't mind refining elixirs for your Murong family, but you must marry me!"

As he spoke, Ling Feng patted the massive belly formed by the Eight Desolate Body Forging Technique, sending fat rippling, rendering Murong Zining speechless and wide-eyed.

"You!"

Murong Zining clenched her delicate fists, "Young Master Long, don't go too far!"

"You, a mere toad, want to eat swan meat!"

Murong Qianjun shouted loudly, "Frozen Emperor, this person doesn't know his place and should be slain immediately!"

The Frozen Emperor's expression turned icy, staring coldly at Ling Feng again, raising three fingers and saying word for word, "Boy, if you want a woman, the Murong family can provide, but you'd better stop having ideas about Zining. I'll give you three breaths to decide, if not, you'll die!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"Wow, what a big mouth!"

Just then, a gray figure appeared on the horizon, and an elder with a long beard descended from the sky, landing directly in front of Ling Feng.

This gray-robed elder was none other than the old man who sold Ling Feng the Yin Yang Stone, Yang Shuzi!

Yang Shuzi glanced disdainfully at the Frozen Emperor and the others, saying coldly, "A Sixth level Alchemist wanting a woman is not a toad wanting to eat swan meat? Perhaps this young lady cannot even reach his level!"

Yang Shuzi snorted softly, glanced at Ling Feng, and chuckled, "You kid, you're interesting! Truly interesting!"

It turns out that the Heavenly Phenomenon caused by Ling Feng refining the Xuanhai Ningshen Pill had alerted Yang Shuzi, who had been observing from the shadows until the Frozen Emperor appeared, prompting him to reveal himself.

"It's Yang Shuzi!"

"Oh my, no wonder this kid is so arrogant with Yang Shuzi backing him!"

"Master Yang is probably one of the few in Deserted City who can dare to contend with the Murong family!"

The surrounding crowd erupted into discussions, shocked by Yang Shuzi's appearance.

"Master Yang!"

The Frozen Emperor's eyelids twitched slightly, clenching his fists, showing considerable apprehension toward Yang Shuzi.

"This person is under my protection!"

Yang Shuzi stood with hands behind his back, raised his eyelids slightly, and said faintly, "You may leave now."
