"I won't let you speak of Young Master like that! If you refuse, then I'll blind myself—I'd rather be blind than go back with you!"

The mont Qing Lin finished speaking, under her control, Xiao Ling and the Horned Viper King actually managed to shake off their bloodline suppression and stood firmly in front of her.

At the sa ti, Qing Lin's Dou Qi surged rapidly, gathering around her eyes.

"Wait, wait! Saintess, don't listen to that crazy woman's nonsense! We can talk this through—if you need help, we'll help. No need to go to such extres!"

On the side, Bai Ya was so terrified by Qing Lin's resolve that his soul nearly left his body. He quickly tried to dissuade her.

After all, the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils was an incredibly rare physique.

Even in the vast Dou Qi Continent, one might not see a single person possessing it in a thousand years.

The search for the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils had already cost the Heavenly Serpent Mansion countless generations of Chiefs and Elders.

They had spent decades searching before finally locating her.

Before setting out, the Chief had issued an iron command—Qing Lin must be brought back safely.

If she was truly determined to destroy her own eyes, then this would be an utter disaster.

Stopping her once was possible.

But stopping her every ti? Impossible.

If Qing Lin really blinded herself—and if they were the primary reason behind it—then it wouldn't just be their own lives at risk.

Once the Chief flew into a rage, even the families behind them might be erased from the Dou Qi Continent!

The one who had spoken earlier, Lu Man, was also stunned.

She never expected Qing Lin's relationship with Lin Feng to be this deep.

Her beautiful eyes flashed with resentnt as she glared at Lin Feng, then said angrily, "Speak! What do you want?"

Lin Feng, on the other hand, was equally shocked by Qing Lin's actions.

He hadn't even had the chance to speak before this little girl pulled such a dramatic stunt.

She must have planned this in advance. Otherwise, she wouldn't have hidden behind those two magical beasts beforehand.

Feeling the sharp gaze from Lu Man, Lin Feng felt his scalp tingle.

Taking a deep breath, he hesitated for a mont under her impatient stare.

"Screw it. Risk it all. A gamble could turn a bicycle into a motorcycle. In this world, if you're not strong enough, you're worse than a dog. Might as well go for broke."

With that thought in mind, he spoke, "I'd like to ask the two of you to help obtain a Heavenly Fla."

"Heavenly Fla?!"

Bai Ya and Lu Man were both stunned.

They had, of course, heard of such treasures.

Once refined, a Heavenly Fla could not only boost one's combat strength but was also sothing that alchemists searched the world for.

And they just so happened to know a mid-level sixth-tier Alchemist. If they traded a Heavenly Fla with him, even demanding a sixth-tier Pill in exchange would likely be accepted.

Thinking of such benefits, Lu Man licked her lips.

A sixth-tier Pill...

If it were a Royal Extre Pill, which could elevate a Dou Huang's strength by one or two stars...

Then their strength would experience a trendous increase!

Lu Man exchanged glances with Bai Ya, both of them visibly tempted.

"If you dare lay a hand on Young Master's Heavenly Fla, I will never let you off!"

Having grown up facing discrimination, Qing Lin was particularly sensitive to changes in others' expressions.

Seeing their reaction, she imdiately stepped forward, issuing a warning.

"Hehe, Saintess, how could we? Our Heavenly Serpent Mansion is reasonable, after all."

The cunning Bai Ya grinned at Qing Lin, feigning innocence.

Bai Ya turned to Lin Feng with a tempting smile. "Little guy, you're just a re Dou Shi right now. A Heavenly Fla is useless to you. How about this? We'll trade you a Fifth-tier pill for it. What do you say?"

Although his tone seed friendly, his large serpent eyes carried a different aning.

He was confident that a re Dou Shi like Lin Feng couldn't possibly resist the allure of a Fifth-tier pill.

After all, even for an ordinary Dou Wang, such a pill was a precious treasure.

"Apologies, but I have no intention of trading away the Heavenly Fla," Lin Feng said, shaking his head.

Hearing his refusal, Bai Ya imdiately grew agitated. "What's wrong with you? That's a Fifth-tier pill we're talking about!"

"Little guy, you should reconsider," Lu Man added, stepping forward with a seemingly kind reminder. "If you trade with us, you'll get a Fifth-tier pill. But if you keep the Heavenly Fla, what if soone cos to rob and kill you for it?"

However, beneath her words was an implicit threat.

Even if you manage to get it, what can a re Dou Shi do? We can just take it from you later.

Sensing their pressure, Lin Feng exhaled lightly.

Bai Ya's earlier panic had already confird one thing—

As long as Qing Lin strongly opposed them, these two wouldn't dare to act rashly.

Right now, he couldn't afford to show any signs of fear.

Lifting his head slightly, Lin Feng smiled and said, "Heh, I'm not worried about being robbed. But Qing Lin, once she arrives at the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, will surely have a high status. If sothing were to happen to , and she gets upset… she might just vent her anger on a certain female Dou Huang, a certain Sixth-Rank Magic Beast, and their families. That would be unfortunate, wouldn't it?"

Hearing this, Qing Lin imdiately caught on and cooperated smartly. "If anything happens to Young Master, even if I have to die, I will avenge him!"

"You little brat!"

Both Bai Ya and Lu Man gritted their teeth in anger.

Not only did Lin Feng remain unfazed by their threats, but he even turned the tables and threatened them instead.

If not for Qing Lin's relationship with him, they would've crushed any other Dou Shi who dared speak to them like this.

But Qing Lin's words forced them to hold back.

If they offended the Saintess, then once they returned to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, she could make their lives miserable with just a single command.

Seeing that they didn't dare to act recklessly, Lin Feng sighed in relief.

He knew he had won this gamble.

With a smile, he added, "Of course, if soone were to help , Qing Lin would surely be pleased. And once she becos the Saintess, I'm sure there would be no shortage of benefits for them."

Bai Ya's serpent eyes flickered as he quickly sobered up from his greed, analyzing the situation.

If they stole the Heavenly Fla now, they might obtain a sixth-tier Pill.

But the cost? Offending Qing Lin, the future Saintess.

If they returned to the Heavenly Serpent Mansion and she bore a grudge against them…

Their days would be numbered.

Killing Lin Feng and Qing Lin after stealing the Heavenly Fla?

No, that wouldn't work either. They wouldn't be able to explain it to the Chief.

Besides, bringing Qing Lin back was already an enormous achievent.

With such a great contribution, they might still be able to receive a sixth-tier pill from within the mansion.

Moreover, if Qing Lin was truly grateful to them, then with her as their backing…

Their status, and that of their families, would rise trendously within the Heavenly Serpent Mansion.

But giving up the Heavenly Fla now?

That was still hard to accept…
