Mu Ling's eyes carried a teasing smile, she felt utterly satisfied inside.
If Mu Yunxue had been with Zhao Mubai, she might only be able to feel jealousy, but things were different now.
"Mu Yunxue, what use is your beauty? You had a good hand of cards, yet you played them poorly."
Who is Zhao Mubai? He is the most handso man in Vermilion Bird City, even ranking in the top ten on the Purity List.
Mu Ling's face showed a look of anticipation, hoping Lin Chen was a nobody, so she could properly humiliate Mu Yunxue.
"Sir, may I know which family you co from, or under which sect you studied?" Mu Ling asked with a smile.
Lin Chen replied indifferently, "I've just arrived in the Immortal World, and I don't belong to any sect."
Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Mu Feng's face suddenly beca unpleasant.
"Dad, although Lin Chen has no sect or prominent family background, he is truly outstanding," Mu Yunxue quickly explained.
"No sect, no prominent family background, in this world dominated by resources, without background, how outstanding can he really be?" Mu Ling said disdainfully.
"Young man, today is the engagent ceremony between Mu Yunxue and Zhao Mubai of our Mu family, you are not welco here, so I'd ask you to leave," Mu Feng said coldly.
Lin Chen rely smiled at Mu Feng and Mu Yunxue's mother Qiu Yun: "Uncle, Auntie, I am Mu Yunxue's boyfriend, here to et the parents today."
"You..." Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Mu Feng's face beca even darker.
Even Qiu Yun's face looked sowhat troubled.
As for the family mbers, their expressions were quite peculiar, but most contained a teasing look, wanting to see Mu Yunxue's family's embarrassnt.
After a brief silence, it was Qiu Yun who recovered from the awkwardness first.
"Oh, you must be Lin Chen. Please, have a seat," Qiu Yun said with a smile.
Except for Qiu Yun, everyone else simply watched Lin Chen with cold eyes, without a hint of emotion.
"Sister, is this your boyfriend? Quite interesting, coming to et the parents without bringing any gift," Mu Ling mocked.
"By the way, Zhang Fu, what gifts did you bring when you ca to et my parents?" Mu Ling asked with a smile.
Beside Mu Ling, a plain-looking young man stood up and said with a smile: "When I t Uncle and Auntie, I brought a lower-grade Spiritual Energy worth ten thousand spirit stones."
Upon hearing Zhang Fu's words, Mu Feng's face beca even harder to look at.
This Lin Chen was making him lose face, practically slapping it.
"Lin Chen brought gifts," Mu Yunxue said.
"Forget it, I don't need them; better not take them out," Mu Feng said coldly.
Mu Feng wasn't foolish. If the gift was too poor, it would only be more humiliating.
Mu Feng was now just thinking of how to drive this young man away to avoid further humiliation.
"Dad, you should look at Lin Chen's gift," Mu Yunxue said anxiously.
"Ha, yes, Uncle, let's see this nobody's precious gift," Mu Ling mocked.
Mu Ling deliberately emphasized the word 'precious.'
"Ha, no sect, no background, what kind of gift could he possibly have?"
"It probably won't be worth much if he takes it out."
Listening to the family's discussion, Mu Feng's expression grew even darker.
"Enough, I don't need your gift, just get out," Mu Feng shouted impatiently.
"Dad!" Mu Yunxue also said anxiously.
"Uncle, don't, after all, he's sister's boyfriend. Let's see what gift he could possibly bring," Mu Ling mocked.
Amidst everyone's ridicule, Lin Chen finally spoke slowly.
"The gift I bring for Uncle is sothing I believe you'll be interested in, for it can directly elevate your cultivation to the high realm of Immortal Emperor."
Though Lin Chen's voice wasn't loud, to everyone, it was like a bombshell.
"Can elevate Mu Feng's power directly to the high realm of Immortal Emperor, how could that be possible!"
Mu Ling suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Yunxue, is your boyfriend delusional? Uncle damaged his strength years ago and has no chance of enhancing it."
People around shook their heads continuously.
Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Mu Feng's eyes initially sparkled with hope.
But soon, that glimr faded.
"How could it be possible? To enhance his power unless there's an Emperor Spiritual Pill, but there are only less than three of those in the entire Immortal World."
Thinking that, the hope on Mu Feng's face gradually disappeared too.
"Young man, are you suggesting you have an Emperor Spiritual Pill?" Mu Ling laughed.
Lin Chen nodded, extending his hand to reveal a porcelain bottle.
"Indeed, I have an Emperor Spiritual Pill, and it's of the highest grade. Not only can it elevate Uncle's power directly to the pinnacle of Immortal Emperor, but it can also minimize side effects. With diligent cultivation, there's even a chance to reach the God Realm," Lin Chen said calmly.
"What did you just say?" Hearing Lin Chen's words, everyone was in shock.
But after brief silence, everyone's faces were filled with disbelief.
To be aware, crafting an Emperor Spiritual Pill requires a Grandmaster of alchemy.
And there is only one Grandmaster in the Immortal World.
That Grandmaster is the Sect Master of the Immortal Elixir Sect, dicine God, a top-tier figure in the Immortal World, beyond the reach of individuals like them.
Moreover, it is heard that even dicine God successfully crafted only three Emperor Spiritual Pills, all of lower quality.
A high-quality Emperor Spiritual Pill, how could it be possible?
"Careful, young man, you might be attempting to deceive us with a random pill," Mu Ling sneered.
"No, the pill was personally crafted by Lin Chen," Mu Yunxue explained anxiously.
"Haha!" Suddenly, waves of laughter echoed in the hall.
Everyone's face displayed ridicule.
If this pill were found accidentally by Lin Chen, so might believe it; to say Lin Chen crafted it, how could that be?
Lin Chen's age is rely in his early twenties, crafting a Emperor Spiritual Pill, simply impossible.
Mu Feng's face was livid. He was almost ready to order this boasting without groundwork guy to be thrown out.
Originally, Mu Feng hoped Lin Chen had exceptional traits that might change his mind about marrying his daughter to him.
After all, Mu Yunxue liked Lin Chen.
However, Mu Feng suddenly realized Lin Chen possessed no rits beyond boasting.
Mu Yunxue took the pill bottle from Lin Chen's hand.
"Dad, this scent, this quality, and the energy fluctuation when forming a pill truly only belong to high-level dicine pills." Saying this, Mu Yunxue opened the bottle.
A fragrant aroma imdiately spread throughout the hall.
"Enough, take your Emperor Spiritual Pill and leave," Mu Feng's voice carried anger.
Mu Yunxue's eyes glistened with tears, but Lin Chen remained calm from start to finish.
