45. The Marriage Contract



45. The Marriage Contract

However, there was one troublesome matter, speed.

The speed of the pills that Lin Miao refined was too slow. He could only refine once a day. And only three pills could be made each time.

How long would it take to refine a thousand pills? At least a year.

One year was too long.

"Lin Miao, you only refine once a day?" Lin Fei frowned and asked.

"Well..." Lin Miao thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "I can restore my spiritual power quickly in a place with heavy Yin Qi and I will refine more than once a day. I could even refine two, three times, or even more."

Lin Fei nodded.

With more refining times and a proficient technique, the number of pills made each time would also increase.

By then, it wouldn't take so long to refine a thousand Blood-Increasing Pills.

"Where is a place with heavy Yin Qi?" Lin Fei asked again.

"Young master, you don't have to go look for a place specifically. I saw a formation in the zombie-refining technique called the Yin Gathering Formation. The formation is very simple, and I should be able to set it up.

However, the materials needed to set up the formation are a bit special. We need corpses to set up it. There are corpse puppets around, but only five of them. To set up the Yin Gathering Formation, we need at least nine corpses." Lin Miao explained.

Lin Fei fell into deep thought. There were still four corpses.

"I'll get you the remaining four corpses. During this time, focus on studying the refining technique and try to increase the number of pills made each time." Lin Fei said.

"Yes, young master." Lin Miao nodded and Lin Fei left the backyard directly.

Lin Fei was considering the matter of four corpses. Where could he get four corpses from? It would be great if he were in Luo City.

Back when Lin Fei killed the bandits, there were more than just four of them. However, it didn't matter if there were no bandits.

For Lin Fei, getting four corpses was not a difficult task.

Nowadays, it was not peaceful. People die every day.

The mass graves outside the city were piled up with bodies like mountains.

Having the Lin family's servants drag back four corpses was not a difficult task at all.

So, Lin Fei found the steward of the Lin family.

"Steward, find four people and have them go to the mass graves outside the city to drag back four corpses. Just put them in the side courtyards at the back, and someone will take care of them. This is fifty taels of silver. You can give it to the servants as a reward."

"Thank you, Young Master. Please rest assured, I will arrange it right away." The steward took the silver.

Fifty taels. The servants would be eager to do it. It was just transporting corpses, there was no danger.

In the afternoon, a familiar voice sounded outside Lin Fei's door.

"Bro, you're finally back," At this time, Lin Wen, the elder brother, finally finished his busy work and returned to the Lin family.

"Elder Brother, was there any trouble with your business?" Lin Fei asked.

"Hahaha, now everyone knows that our Lin family has an Inner Sect disciple of the Nine Profound Sect. Who dares to make trouble?

Brother, come on, let's go to the hall. Father and I have been worrying about you all this time. There is a good thing."

"A good thing? What good thing?"

"You'll find out when you get there."

Lin Wen was quite mysterious.

So, Lin Fei followed his elder brother to the hall.

In the hall, their parents were also smiling. There was also an old woman who looked to be around fifty years old.

"This must be the Second Young Master, right?" The old woman was also scrutinizing Lin Fei.

And, with a wave of her hand, a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar next to her actually took out a pen and paper and began to draw.

"Father, Mother. What's going on?" Lin Fei's brow furrowed slightly.

"Fei, this is Wang Po."

"We have arranged a marriage for you and I guarantee you will be satisfied. Therefore, we need your portrait to show to the lady. Likewise, the lady also has a portrait for you to see."

"Marriage?" Lin Fei had forgotten about this.

At his age, he should have settled down and started a family in this world. Especially for a wealthy merchant family like the Lin family.

"Father, mother, I just want to focus on martial arts now."

Lin Fei had no intention of getting married at the moment.

"Practicing martial arts and getting married doesn't have to be mutually exclusive. So many inner disciples of the Nine Profound Sect, even the talented ones, have gotten married. Which one of them hasn't married?"

Lin Fei opened his mouth to argue, but couldn't.

Indeed, most of the inner disciples of the Nine Profound Sect had gotten married.

They were just practicing martial arts alone in the Nine Profound Sect.

Only a small portion of the disciples was fully dedicated to practicing martial arts.

"Second brother, I know that people who practice martial arts have their own ideas. So, we talked to your father and decided to find you a suitable match, and you will definitely be satisfied.

In fact, this marriage proposal was not initiated by us. The girl's family approached our Lin family.

She is the daughter of the prefect, and the prefect has one son and three daughters, with only the youngest daughter, Wang Xuan, unmarried.

Wang Xuan, like you, is practicing martial arts in the sect. However, she joined Autumn Haze Mountain and entered the inner sect last year.

Both you and she are practitioners of martial arts, so you will definitely be satisfied with this marriage.

Take a look at the portrait. Her appearance and background are both excellent.

Moreover, this marriage proposal can be considered a high-level match for our Lin family. It is also because the prefect sees your potential and bright future that his daughter is willing to marry into our family."

Lin Fei glanced at the portrait.

The woman in the portrait was indeed quite beautiful. And her temperament was spirited, making her pleasing to anyone's eyes.
