Battle Through the Heavens: Starting from the Jia Ma Empire

Chapter 48 Warmth

Above the azure sky, a giant griffin flapped its wings and flew towards the distant horizon.

If someone had a keen eye, they would be astonished to discover that above this unruly king of the sky, there was a figure standing with his hands behind his back, and the griffin did not show any sign of resistance, which was truly unbelievable.

The handsome figure was none other than Lin Feng. Standing on the back of the griffin, he looked at the distant capital city that was already faintly visible, and couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation as he approached home.

"But I wonder if Little Fairy Doctor will blame me for undergoing such a long training period?"

A few thoughts rippled through Lin Feng's mind. He couldn't help but pat the QQ Dance at his feet. The Sky King, having received the signal, suddenly spread its wings and accelerated, leaving a black afterimage in the sky.

Lin Feng walked through a market town in front of the Alchemist Guild in the capital of Gama.

People occasionally recognized him as the most famous genius alchemist in the Gama Empire recently, and the youngest elder of the Alchemist Guild. However, just as someone was about to step forward to make an impression, his friend quickly pulled him back.

Seeing his utterly bewildered expression, he quickly explained, "You idiot, didn't you see how hurried the Alchemist was, and how anxious he looked?"

However, this guy really was a fool, still a liar. Fortunately, Lin Feng had already moved forward, and his companions didn't say anything more.

Of course, in this bustling market, there were always some people who were alone and not very perceptive, so they went up to Lin Feng and greeted him.

"Lord Lin Feng, I am..." A fat, richly dressed middle-aged man swaggered forward, beaming at Lin Feng. He seemed to already be imagining Lin Feng's polite response, the two of them drinking and chatting happily, and Lin Feng refining pills for him as their friendship deepened.

However, a polite voice suddenly rang in his ears, pulling him back from his reverie.

"Sir, I have urgent business today. If you need anything, please make an appointment at the Alchemist Guild!"

Lin Feng didn't give this clueless fellow a hard time, but he also didn't waste any words with him. After leaving a polite remark, Lin Feng ignored him and continued walking towards his residence in the capital.

Watching Lin Feng leave without stopping, the smile on the fat, big-eared middle-aged man's face froze instantly, and he stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do.

Upon seeing this, the man who had been playing the drum finally realized what was happening and quickly thanked his friend beside him with a grateful expression.

The man didn't seem to mind, just waved his hand and mumbled something about it being a friend's business. Then the drummer uttered a vague phrase containing something like "foot wash" or "full service."

The man immediately changed his previous indifference, his face flushed, and he said nothing but "no ceremony," pulling the bewildered man in an unknown direction, causing the guy who had just cleared his head to be bewildered again.

The other passersby who heard this exchanged glances and found that they were all giving each other ambiguous looks, then pretended to be nonchalant.

Ignoring the nonsensical words spoken by these people, Lin Feng finally managed to get through the crowded area after walking for a while, and then stopped in front of a courtyard.

"The Lin residence!"

Looking up at the familiar plaque, Lin Feng pushed open the door and entered. The familiar corridor, bamboo forest, and pavilion came into view.

After returning home, Lin Feng slowed down his hurried pace. Although he still couldn't suppress his longing for Little Fairy Doctor, he wasn't in a hurry.

Walking down the familiar corridor, occasionally glancing up at the bamboo leaves rustling in the wind, Lin Feng couldn't help but recall the leisurely chat he had with the little fairy doctor Qinglin here more than four months ago.

Although he had some memories in his mind, he kept walking. After turning a corner again, Lin Feng heard two cheerful girls' voices.

One voice sounded somewhat familiar, clearly belonging to Little Fairy Doctor, while the other was somewhat unfamiliar, causing a hint of doubt to flash in Lin Feng's eyes.

"Fine! We'll find out once we go in."

He deliberately made some noise with his footsteps, startling the two people inside who were chatting happily.

"Brother Lin Feng!?"

The voice of Little Fairy Doctor came with a hint of surprise, seemingly carrying a trace of disbelief.

"Fairy."

She ran to open the door, and sure enough, the person she had been longing for appeared before her. Little Fairy Doctor was stunned and stood there, not knowing what to do.

"Fairy."

Seeing Xian'er's state, Lin Feng called out softly again, took a few steps forward, and gently embraced the bewildered Little Fairy Doctor in his arms.

"Brother Lin Feng. It's me."

After nestling in Lin Feng's arms for a while, Little Fairy Doctor raised her head, her eyes red as she looked at Lin Feng. She looked so frail and pitiful.

He reached out and smoothed the messy strands of hair on Little Fairy Doctor's forehead, then lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead.

"Xian'er, I'm sorry for making you worry."

Lin Feng's voice carried a hint of guilt. If Lin Feng were strong enough, he wouldn't have had to leave Little Fairy Doctor alone in the capital. Even Qing Lin wouldn't have been forced to leave.

"Brother Lin Feng, don't say that," Little Fairy Doctor gently covered Lin Feng's mouth. "Brother Lin Feng has already worked very hard. We are still young, and we will definitely be the center of attention in the future."

Looking at the Little Fairy Doctor comforting him, Lin Feng felt a surge of warmth in his heart. This was the person he was willing to fight desperately to protect.

"Ah," Little Fairy Doctor blushed as if she had remembered something, and quickly got up from Lin Feng's arms. She pulled Lin Feng to the red-clad figure who had been watching from the side and began to introduce him.

"Brother Lin Feng, this is Sister Ya Fei, you've met her before." Little Fairy Doctor didn't wait for Lin Feng to ask why Ya Fei was here, and immediately introduced her.

"After Brother Lin Feng went off to train, Xian'er also began to enter seclusion. However, she felt bored after being alone for four months. Just then, Sister Yafei came to visit, and we became friends."

The little fairy doctor, who had been talking non-stop, calmed down and then, as if she had remembered something, looked at Lin Feng expectantly.

"Brother Lin Feng, guess what level I've reached now?"

Seeing the little fairy doctor's face beaming with praise, Lin Feng couldn't help but smile. He hoped she would continue to be so happy. Although this woman possessed a physique that ordinary people dreamed of, this physique ultimately brought her a lot of suffering.

Even if Lin Feng hadn't obtained the Five Elements Sealing Technique, she had planned to cherish the time she spent with Lin Feng and Qing Lin, and then secretly leave when the Calamity Poison Body was about to erupt.

"Then, our little princess, could you tell me what realm you are currently at?"

"Brother Lin Feng," she said sweetly, her face slightly flushed. After calming down for a moment, she said mysteriously to Lin Feng, "I'm already a three-star Dou Shi!"

Looking at the proud Little Fairy Doctor, Lin Feng smiled gently. It was rare to see Little Fairy Doctor like this. All along, she had been a quiet observer, watching him and Qing Lin play around, occasionally smiling softly.

Lin Feng had sensed the Dou Qi realm of the person before entering the room, and also sensed the Five Elements Seal on the person's body. It was still very stable, which was one of the reasons why Lin Feng was so happy.

"Cough cough,"

While Lin Feng and Little Fairy Doctor were interacting without a care in the world, Ya Fei, who was standing to the side, seemed to have a lump in her throat and coughed softly.

Startled awake from their sweet nothings, they realized there was another person standing nearby. They exchanged an awkward glance and then smiled at each other.

Seeing that the young couple seemed to be getting lost in their own world again, Yafei quickly spoke up and pulled them back.

"Mr. Lin Feng, I am Yafei from the Mittel family. I met you at the celebration banquet that night, but I don't know if you still remember me."

Looking at the respectful Yafei, Lin Feng waved his hand, "No need to be so polite. It's rare for Little Fairy Doctor to have a friend by her side. You can just call me Lin Feng from now on."

"Mr. Lin Feng is indeed gentle, but I cannot be disrespectful." Looking at Ya Fei, who covered her mouth and chuckled, but still called him Mr. Lin Feng softly, I knew that she was just feeling constrained by his identity as an elder of the Alchemist Guild.

Lin Feng didn't care much, and then told the two about his experiences training in the Monster Mountain Range.

Of course, only the pleasant parts were told, and some confidential matters were not revealed.

"Speaking of the Monster Mountain Range, there was only one monkey and one pig."
