Chapter 2527: Chapter 2506: Grand Opening Ceremony Chapter 2506 Grand Opening Ceremony
"So this is what it looks like!"
Di Guang stared at the Holy Pill Pavilion in front of him, eyes going completely blank, because the appearance of the Holy Pill Pavilion was so beautiful it was beyond imagination. Only at this moment did he finally understand where Lin Feng’s confidence came from. Even as a stranger, just one look and he couldn’t pull his eyes away; the reaction of other cultivators could well be imagined. He really couldn’t picture that a building like this actually existed.
The white‑clothed woman who had followed Di Guang also covered her mouth at this time. Without saying anything else, just this kind of building alone was a giant signboard; it didn’t even need an actual plaque. She also couldn’t believe that what she was seeing before her was the Holy Pill Pavilion.
"Let’s go in."
Looking at the Holy Pill Pavilion in front of him, Lin Feng spoke with some pride. After he finished, he immediately led the two of them inside.
When they entered the Holy Pill Pavilion and saw the interior decoration, they were instantly stunned speechless. This was a style that went beyond their imagination. But before the Di Guang couple could think too much, Gu Tianhai walked over.
"Brother Di Guang, you’re here!" Gu Tianhai said with a smile as he looked at Di Guang.
The moment he saw Gu Tianhai, Di Guang instantly understood what was going on. He had drunk with Gu Tianhai twice before; there was no need to think about it—Lin Feng must have come to him because of Gu Tianhai. Thinking of this, not only did he not feel angry, he instead said to Gu Tianhai, "I should thank you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have met Pavilion Master Lin, much less come here."
"Don’t mention it. Come with me to the back courtyard first, I’ll arrange a place for you and your wife. The pavilion is about to open these few days, there’s a lot to do. Once we’re open for business, we’ll have a good get‑together." Gu Tianhai smiled and nodded, then led the Di Guang couple toward the back courtyard of the Holy Pill Pavilion to settle them in.
Not long after, Gu Tianhai returned. He gave Lin Feng a thumbs‑up and said to him, "You really are efficient. In just one day you managed to sweet‑talk Di Guang over. I truly bow to you."
This was Gu Tianhai speaking from the heart. In the past, many large and small Sects had gone to invite Di Guang, and not a single one had succeeded. Lin Feng went once and immediately succeeded; that alone proved Lin Feng’s ability—there was really no need to say anything else.
To this, Lin Feng just waved his hand, glanced at Tao Tao at his side, and said to her, "I’ve still got a lot of things to deal with here. Go back and check on Tangyuan’s situation. Once I’m done with things here, I’ll come back."
Tao Tao also knew Lin Feng was busy, so she didn’t say anything more at this moment and obediently turned around and went back to the small courtyard.
After Tao Tao left, Lin Feng asked Gu Tianhai, "How long until the interior renovation here is finished?"
"It should be done by tomorrow." Gu Tianhai replied immediately, then asked Lin Feng, "What are you planning?"
"After the Holy Pill Pavilion is established, I’m going to rearrange the Formations here. With my level in Formations, even if a Divine Venerable wants to mess with the Holy Pill Pavilion, they’ll have to see if their teeth are hard enough to chew it. Only then can I feel at ease leaving the Holy Pill Pavilion." Lin Feng said seriously as he looked at Gu Tianhai.
"Good idea!" Gu Tianhai nodded as soon as he heard this. He agreed with Lin Feng’s arrangement, because only with such arrangements could they truly feel at ease. With Lin Feng taking action, he absolutely believed in the power of the Formation. After pondering slightly, he continued, "Since that’s the case, I’ll immediately arrange for these people to get the interior finished tonight. I’ll leave the night to you. Two days from now, we’ll have the grand opening of our Holy Pill Pavilion!"
"All right, we’ll go with that. In these two days, I’ll set up all the Formations here by myself. Everything else will be handled by you. Don’t forget to invite the City Lord, invite Elder Zhao from the auction house, and also invite the Great Elder of the Lingxiao Sect." After hearing this, Lin Feng nodded and briefly mentioned the related matters, especially emphasizing those three people. These three were extremely important and had to be informed.
"The Great Elder of the Lingxiao Sect?" Gu Tianhai’s eyes immediately widened. He didn’t understand what Lin Feng meant—how could they invite the Great Elder of the Lingxiao Sect? You had to know, the Great Elder of the Lingxiao Sect was absolutely no ordinary figure, and this place had nothing to do with him at all. What were they inviting him for?
"You don’t need to ask, just invite him." Lin Feng didn’t say more. After leaving this sentence with Gu Tianhai, he directly turned and left. He needed to find a quiet place and re‑plan the Formations he was going to set up, to forge the Holy Pill Pavilion of Ling City into an impregnable fortress...
......
Two days later.
The Holy Pill Pavilion in Ling City had its grand opening. Under Gu Tianhai’s arrangements, the opening ceremony was extremely grand. The road in front of the Holy Pill Pavilion was basically blocked, and with deliberate publicity, the entrance of the Holy Pill Pavilion was already packed to bursting, a sea of people!
The Family Heads of the Eight Prominent Families were among the first to arrive and were all resting inside the Holy Pill Pavilion. When they saw the interior decoration of the Holy Pill Pavilion, they collectively fell silent. They finally understood what the gap really was. It could be said that this gap was unprecedentedly huge, simply not on the same level at all. Compared to the Holy Pill Pavilion, their own Alchemy Workshops were downright shabby, not even worth mentioning!
For a moment, the hearts of all the Family Heads were filled with bitterness. None of them had expected things to turn out like this. They knew they were already powerless to stop the rise of the Holy Pill Pavilion, because they had no way at all. So the eight of them just quietly sat inside the Holy Pill Pavilion waiting for the opening ceremony to end, planning to leave as soon as it was over.
But they hadn’t expected that Lin Feng’s guests were not just the eight of them...
When they saw Elder Zhao from the auction house, their expressions immediately changed. Elder Zhao was the one who called the shots at the auction house and represented the Myriad Gods Tower, and he had actually appeared here. What did that mean? It meant there was some relationship between the Holy Pill Pavilion and the Myriad Gods Tower. Even if that relationship was most likely just利益‑based, that still made a huge difference!
Yet before they could recover, they saw that the new City Lord of Ling City had also arrived. In an instant, the faces of the eight people became even uglier. They had never imagined that the Holy Pill Pavilion could actually invite the new City Lord over. You had to know, they themselves still hadn’t even managed to make contact with the new City Lord. In their hearts they were muttering, what’s going on here, how could the Holy Pill Pavilion be this outrageous, even this they can pull off?
But it still wasn’t over. With the arrival of the Great Elder of the Lingxiao Sect, the eight Family Heads were completely stunned, their hair standing on end. What kind of face was this? This was Heaven-Reaching face! It could be said that in all of Ling City, there was no other shop whose opening could make the Lingxiao Sect show up, and it was even the Great Elder of the Lingxiao Sect. Thinking back to how they had actually rejected the Holy Pill Pavilion before, and in the end they had only been knocked for a bit of money, they were actually overjoyed about that right now!
At this very moment, the eight Family Heads finally understood that the background of the Holy Pill Pavilion was Heaven-Reaching, completely beyond their imagination. From now on, even if you gave them a hundred thousand guts, they absolutely could not lay any schemes on the Holy Pill Pavilion. That would just be courting death...
As the opening ceremony of the Holy Pill Pavilion proceeded, with the presence of the Eight Prominent Families’ Family Heads, and with the presence of the three important figures, the Holy Pill Pavilion instantly became a commercial giant among the shops of Ling City. No other shop could exist on the same level as the Holy Pill Pavilion. At the same time, the name "Holy Pill Pavilion" was pushed to the very peak, known by everyone in Ling City!
But what no one had expected was that when Gu Tianhai announced during the opening ceremony that the Holy Pill Pavilion would, from now on, supply three Flawless Quality Grand Quality Elixirs every single day, the name of the Holy Pill Pavilion completely exploded. The eyes of countless cultivators in the city practically popped out, the Family Heads of the Eight Prominent Families were dumbstruck, and even the Great Elder of the Lingxiao Sect found it hard to believe!
As soon as the opening ceremony ended, when the Family Heads of the Eight Prominent Families and the three important figures went to the back of the Holy Wind Sect to rest, all the cultivators surged toward the Holy Pill Pavilion. The Holy Pill Pavilion was packed, the sales floor was insanely hot...
Meanwhile, in the back courtyard of the Holy Pill Pavilion, Lin Feng and the three important figures were sitting at a small table in the courtyard tasting tea. The Family Heads of the Eight Prominent Families didn’t even have seats at this time; yet even standing, smiles still hung on all their faces.
"Young Friend Lin, you truly made me see you in a new light!"
Looking at Lin Feng, the Great Elder spoke first. He really did look at Lin Feng in a new light now. The architecture of the Holy Pill Pavilion was so distinctive, its interior decoration unmatched, and it could even supply Flawless Quality Grand Quality Elixirs. With his eyesight, he could naturally see how impressive Lin Feng’s methods were. To be honest, even now he still found it hard to believe that all of this had been done by Lin Feng alone.
"Great Elder, this was all just me messing around on my own. Please don’t make fun of me." Lin Feng replied modestly as he looked at the Great Elder, his tone full of respect. No matter what, the Great Elder was a genuine powerhouse; the respect due to him had to be shown.
"Pavilion Master Lin, you’re the role model of the business world in my Ling City!" The new City Lord of Ling City also spoke up with a word of praise at this time. Although he had just arrived in Ling City, he had still more or less guessed some of what was going on, especially the fact that the Great Elder had come to attend the opening ceremony of the Holy Pill Pavilion—that alone spoke volumes. So at this moment, he was not stingy with a few extra compliments for Lin Feng.
"City Lord, you’re going to crush me with praise. My shop has just opened; in terms of foundation, it’s nowhere near my turn to boast. Please don’t say things like that." Lin Feng replied quickly at this point, then said to everyone, "I, Lin, thank you all for coming to attend the opening ceremony of the Holy Pill Pavilion. I’ll remember this favor. Thank you!"
Lin Feng bowed respectfully and thanked everyone, then had the thank‑you banquet brought up, and everyone ate and chatted together.
At first, no one paid it much mind. But when they tasted Lin Feng’s Drunken Dragon Wine, everyone praised it, all amazed that Lin Feng actually had such fine wine. To this, Lin Feng could only apologize and explain to everyone that he had obtained it by chance.
In fact, everyone more or less understood what was going on, so they didn’t press the matter and continued eating and drinking. The dishes were excellent, the wine was excellent. Even though they were all people who had seen big scenes, they still couldn’t resist Lin Feng’s cooking and Lin Feng’s wine!
For a whole day, the group drank every last drop of Drunken Dragon Wine that Lin Feng had prepared. On the other side, the Holy Pill Pavilion had already made a sensational debut in Ling City. The first day’s revenue of the Holy Pill Pavilion was an astronomical figure beyond anyone’s imagination...
