"Alright, please wait a moment!"
After receiving Lin Xianfeng's affirmative answer, the butler immediately turned and ran into the house.
The matter was of great importance, and he dared not be negligent in the slightest.
Before long, the butler returned with a middle-aged man, rushing out in a hurry.
"Who is the head of the Lin family?"
Upon emerging, the middle-aged man questioned the three of them.
"You are, Mr. Long Feihu, aren't you?"
Seeing the middle-aged man who had come out, Lin Xianfeng immediately stepped forward to greet him.
As the Long family was a top aristocratic family in Long Country, Lin Xianfeng had a general understanding of their internal affairs.
Long Feihu was a genuine cultivator at the half-step Nascent Soul realm, a well-known figure in the capital.
Furthermore, Long Feihu was the eldest son of Old Master Long and the future heir to the Long family headship.
With Old Master Long now in qi deviation, apart from a guest elder, Long Feihu possessed the highest cultivation in the Long family.
If Old Master Long were to suffer any serious harm, the entire Long family would no longer have a Nascent Soul expert guarding it.
At that time, the Long family's status in the capital would inevitably plummet!
"That's right, I am Long Feihu. You are the acting head of the Lin family, Lin Xianfeng, correct?"
Long Feihu nodded and took the initiative to inquire.
The Lin family was one of the prominent families in the capital. Although their overall strength was still significantly different from the Long family, they were also a legitimate old aristocratic family.
Lin Xianfeng, as the acting head of the Lin family, held a status in the capital that was not to be underestimated.
It could be said that with Lin Xianfeng's status, he would not come to the Long family's doorstep to speak nonsense.
Since he had said so now, there must be some secret that others were unaware of.
"That's correct, I am Lin Xianfeng!"
Lin Xianfeng nodded and smiled.
"Patriarch Lin, the situation is urgent, so I won't beat around the bush. You say you have a way to cure my grandfather. Is this true?"
Long Feihu cut to the chase and asked Lin Xianfeng directly.
Currently, Old Master Long was the backbone of the entire Long family and their only pillar.
If Old Master Long were to die, the Long family would lose its only pillar!
This would be absolutely no good for anyone in the Long family.
"That's right, it's true!"
"Mr. Long, allow me to introduce you. This is Chen Lin, a patron of our Lin family. He is an alchemist and can refine the Clear Heart Pill!"
Lin Xianfeng nodded, his expression full of smiles.
"What? You can refine the Clear Heart Pill? Is that true?"
Upon hearing this, Long Feihu's eyes widened.
He knew very well what level of pill the Clear Heart Pill was and had a specific understanding of its effects.
It could be said that if the Clear Heart Pill truly existed, it could not only cure his grandfather's illness but possibly even help him break through to the Nascent Soul realm!
He had been at the half-step Nascent Soul realm for many years and had been unable to break through to the Nascent Soul realm because he feared qi deviation and dared not rashly advance.
Now, with the assistance of the Clear Heart Pill, he would undoubtedly be able to cultivate boldly and break through his current realm.
At that time, the Long family would have two Nascent Soul realm experts!
"That's right, but to refine the Clear Heart Pill, a spirit-grade alchemy furnace is required as an aid. It depends on whether Mr. Long is willing!"
Subsequently, Lin Xianfeng looked at Long Feihu and stated Chen Lin's previous condition.
A spirit-grade alchemy furnace was an absolute treasure. Even a fourth-grade alchemist who personally came to request one had failed to obtain it.
He just didn't know if it could be obtained under the current circumstances.
"Patriarch Lin, if you can truly refine the Clear Heart Pill, the Long family will hand over the spirit-grade alchemy furnace with both hands!"
Upon hearing Lin Xianfeng's words, Long Feihu nodded in agreement without a second thought.
If it were in the past, he would never have made such a decision.
But now, there was no other choice. His grandfather was on the brink of death.
If a method of treatment were not found immediately, not only would his grandfather die, but the entire Long family would face utter ruin!
Although the Long family was known throughout the Long Country's cultivation world as a family of artifact refiners, without a powerful expert to guard them, their enemies would surely tear them apart!
"Good, it's a deal! If I fail to refine the Clear Heart Pill, you can take my head!"
As he spoke, Lin Xianfeng pointed to his own head.
For Lin Xianfeng at this moment, if Chen Lin could refine the Clear Heart Pill to cure Old Master Long, it would be equivalent to having the entire Long family as his backing.
Given the nature of the Long family, no matter what happened to him, they would repay his life-saving grace.
At that time, even if Lin Kaishan were a third-grade alchemist, he would not be able to shake Lin Xianfeng's position.
But if Chen Lin could not refine the Clear Heart Pill, then he would inevitably meet a dead end sooner or later!
"Patriarch Lin, you are too kind. Please come in!"
Hearing Lin Xianfeng's words, Long Feihu chuckled lightly and personally led Lin Xianfeng and the other two into the Long family courtyard.
"Alright, please come in!"
Lin Xianfeng nodded and, with Chen Lin and Lin Yuelong following behind Long Feihu, they entered the Long family courtyard.
At this moment, the Long family was filled with a deathly atmosphere, and many of the Long family disciples wore faces full of grief.
In their view, Old Master Long had already fallen into qi deviation and was beyond saving!
Seeing the pervasive atmosphere of sorrow, Chen Lin couldn't help but nod slightly.
Although he hadn't been in the cultivation world for long, he had encountered more than one or two disciples from aristocratic families.
Therefore, he also knew that internal strife was common in these aristocratic families.
But now, the entire Long family wore faces full of grief.
This suggested that the atmosphere within the Long family was quite united.
"Mr. Lin, please excuse me. I will first take Mr. Chen to see my grandfather. Would you two wait here for a moment?"
Upon entering the living room, Long Feihu did not engage in excessive pleasantries.
After all, for Long Feihu at this moment, their primary task was to cure his grandfather immediately.
But since Chen Lin required a spirit-grade alchemy furnace, he would definitely report to his grandfather as soon as possible and find a way to procure the furnace.
"Alright, Mr. Long, please be my guest."
Hearing Long Feihu's words, Lin Xianfeng did not show any displeasure.
After all, their purpose for being here was to cure Old Master Long's illness.
And now, the only one who could cure Old Master Long was Chen Lin, who had recently joined them.
Under such circumstances, he certainly wouldn't mind in the slightest.
