Chapter 4: Chapter 4 Proposal of Marriage

"Who is causing a commotion at the Liu Family residence?"

In the villa, a middle-aged man, accompanied by several others, came out.

When Ye Feng caught sight of this middle-aged man, he was slightly startled.

Because he vaguely felt that this person looked familiar.

But he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"That shouldn't be possible. With this young master's memory, how could I forget someone after seeing them?"

Ye Feng was somewhat puzzled.

After thinking for a moment with no results, he simply stopped trying to recall.

Turning to the middle-aged man with a slight nod, he said, "From Mount Kunlun, disciple of Qing Niu Zi, Ye Feng, is here by the order of my master to welcome the marriage with Liu Yanran!"

"Mount Kunlun? Ye Feng?"

Liu Yuan slightly furrowed his brows, his expression somewhat astonished!

Although the Liu Family was not considered a top-tier wealthy family in East Sea City, it was still a third-tier noble family.

Furthermore, with Liu Yanran's stunning beauty and substantial personal strength, managing the family's business, she naturally attracted many marriage proposals.

However, almost all those who came seeking marriage were of equal social status to the Liu Family.

Who the hell was this Ye Feng who came from Mount Kunlun?

"Tsk, I thought some young master had taken a fancy to our Yan Ran, but it turns out to be a poor boy coming down from the mountain!"

Behind the middle-aged man, a woman dressed in a cheongsam sneered disdainfully.

The woman had an excellent figure.

Because she took good care of her skin, it was very lustrous.

The cheongsam wrapped around a voluptuous body.

She was Liu Yuan's wife, Fang Ling, and also Liu Yanran's mother!

Fang Ling gave Ye Feng a cold glance and continued, "You say you are the beloved disciple of Qing Niu Zi from Mount Kunlun? You come here to my Liu Family to propose marriage, but where is the betrothal gift?"

Being looked down upon just after proposing, Ye Feng felt a tinge of displeasure in his heart.

But according to his master, the Liu Family had shown him kindness in the past.

So, he didn't think it appropriate to make a scene.

After a slight nod, he took out an ordinary-looking small box from his chest.

Upon opening the box, inside was a green pill.

As soon as the pill appeared, a refreshing medicinal fragrance immediately permeated the entire villa.

Smelling this fragrance, both Liu Yuan and Fang Ling's faces showed a trace of astonishment.

"Is this a treasure?"

Liu Yuan's heart shivered!

"This is the Life-Renewing Elixir, left by my master for Liu Tianba, the Family Head of the Liu Family, before he departed. My master divined that the old master was suffering from an illness; this pill can cure his ailment and extend his life by twenty years!"

Ye Feng pronounced each word clearly as he explained the origin of the pill in his hand to Liu Yuan.

After listening to his introduction, the astonishment on Liu Yuan's face had solidified, unable to dissipate for a long while.

He now had one question in mind.

How did Ye Feng's master know about the illness of their family's old master?

"Could it be... that this kid's master really is an ancient immortal?"

The marriage arrangement between Liu Yanran and Ye Feng had been settled by Liu Tianba and Ye Feng's master.

Liu Yuan had been unaware of it.

Thus, he was somewhat indecisive now.

Fang Ling, on the other hand, snorted disdainfully with a sneer, "Hmph, trying to marry my daughter with just a broken pill? Silly Taoist, you're far too naive!"

She didn't believe the story that Ye Feng's master was an "ancient immortal."

After all, the Liu Family was a well-known family in East Sea City.

Many people knew that the Liu Family patriarch was ill.

With a little inquiry, it wasn't hard to find out.

Perhaps Ye Feng had learned of the old master's illness from someone else and thus specifically brought the pill to propose marriage.

"Hmph, so young and yet not learning anything good, always looking for shortcuts; let me tell you, if you want to propose marriage, that's fine, but the betrothal gift must be at least five million, otherwise, forget about it," Fang Ling said with a firm attitude.

The stance of Fang Ling took Ye Feng by surprise.

After considering it, he understood.

This must be the mother-in-law wanting a dowry.

But just five million, isn't that a bit too little?

"Is it really enough to only want five million as the betrothal gift?"

Ye Feng asked Fang Ling.

"Hmph, I don't mean to look down on you, but with your shabby appearance, can you even produce a betrothal gift of five million?"

Fang Ling clearly didn't believe Ye Feng could come up with a betrothal gift of five million.

After all, that was no small amount!

"Just a mere five million, what's that worth? The Life-Renewing Elixir I have here is more than enough as a betrothal gift!"

Ye Feng shook the Life-Renewing Elixir in his hand.

It was made by his master, who had collected many precious medicinal ingredients to create it.

A divine medicine capable of extending the life of a dying person by twenty years.

If this pill were to be put up for auction, it would fetch tens of millions at the very least.

So he said it was more than enough for the betrothal gift.

However, Fang Ling became even more annoyed upon hearing his words.

"You stinky Taoist, are you playing with me?"

Ye Feng quickly shook his head and explained earnestly, "I'm not lying to you, this Life-Extension Pill is indeed enough for a betrothal gift!"

"Hmph! Utter nonsense, get out of here now, or I'll make you regret it."

Fang Ling's eyebrows stood on end, her pretty face turning frosty.

She thought Ye Feng was deliberately trying to amuse her.

"What's all this noise, what a disgrace!"

Just at that moment, a stern voice suddenly burst from inside the house.

Then, an elder with a withered face walked out slowly with the support of his servants.

His face was aged, his hair white, his eye sockets deeply sunken, having the appearance of someone on his last legs, about to pass away.

Upon the elder's appearance, both Fang Ling and Liu Yuan showed obvious fear.

"Dad, why have you come out?"

Liu Yuan and Fang Ling hurriedly greeted him, taking over from the servants and carefully assisting the elder, signaling for the servants to leave!

Although Liu Tianba looked like he didn't have long to live, his gaze was incredibly sharp.

Like that of an eagle!

One could guess that this old gentleman must have been quite the character when he was young; otherwise, the Liu Family wouldn't have such a massive fortune.

The moment Liu Tianba appeared, Ye Feng began to size him up.

And Liu Tianba was also sizing up Ye Feng.

When he saw the Life-Renewing Elixir in Ye Feng's hand, the old man's sharp pupils suddenly constricted, a flash of excitement in his eyes.

"May I ask if this young friend is the disciple of the venerable Master Qingniu, Ye Feng?"

"Yes! I am Ye Feng. Are you Elder Liu Tianba?"

Liu Tianba stroked his goatee and laughed heartily, "Indeed, it is I!"

Confirming that the man before him was the benefactor his master spoke of years ago, Ye Feng quickly bowed respectfully.

"Elder Liu Tianba, this is the life-saving divine medicine my master specially refined for you, the Life-Renewing Elixir! It is also my betrothal gift!"

As soon as Liu Tianba heard it was the Life-Renewing Elixir, his eyes immediately crinkled with laughter.

"Haha... you're quite thoughtful, young man! Very good, very good!"

It was not hard to tell that he was very satisfied with the Life-Renewing Elixir Ye Feng had brought.

Recently, his health had been failing, and reputable doctors had told him he had at most a month to live.

Now that Ye Feng had brought the Life-Renewing Elixir, it was nothing short of a timely help in the snow.

At this moment, he also remembered the parting words of Ye Feng's master.

"In eighteen years, my disciple will come to ask for your granddaughter's hand in marriage with a pill that can extend your life. I hope that when the time comes, you will honor the promise and marry your granddaughter to my disciple."

"Worthy of Master Qingniu, to have predicted my predicament eighteen years ago and prepare the Life-Renewing Elixir in advance to save my life. Considering that the disciple of such an eminent sage is no ordinary person, Yan Ran must marry this young man! In this way, my Liu Family can soar to the heavens!"

As the head of the Liu Family, Liu Tianba's vision and perspective were naturally beyond the comparison with Liu Yuan and his wife.

"Liu Yuan, go pick a good date, find an upscale hotel, and get the wedding between Ye Feng and Yan Ran arranged as soon as possible!"

"What? Dad, are you serious, you want to marry Yan Ran off to this lad?"

Before Liu Yuan could speak, Fang Ling was the first to express her doubts.
