A small alchemy shop called 'Yuchi Medicine Pavilion' was located on the edge of Fengcheng's streets.
Although Yuchi Pharmacy's location wasn't ideal, it didn't hinder its booming business.
The crowds were dense.
The shop was bustling with people buying elixirs.
"Father, we absolutely cannot let Junior Sister Qiao marry that Han Feng!"
"Although Han Feng is a sixth-grade alchemist, Father, your alchemist level is also fourth-grade. What gives him the right to do this?"
"To get his junior sister, Han Feng actually offered to refine a Royal Extreme Pill for her! That's outrageous! That's bullying!"
"......"</p>
At this moment, six people are sitting on the third floor of the Dan Pavilion.
Two women and four men.
"Wei'er, no matter what, I will never hand you over! Even if the entire Medicine Pavilion is destroyed!"
Among them, an elderly man of about fifty years old with three wisps of black beard spoke to a woman before him who possessed a beauty that could shame the flowers and eclipse the moon.
His words revealed a resolute determination.
"Thank you, Godfather!"
The woman called Vera stood up, bowed deeply to the black-bearded elder, and said gratefully.
"Hmm."
Yu Chi Lei nodded and said, "Everyone must cultivate diligently. Here, it's a dog-eat-dog world; there's no logic to it. You all go and cultivate. Wei'er stays behind."
Upon hearing Yu Chi Lei's words, everyone except the stunningly beautiful woman left.
"Wei'er, do you know why your father kept you here?" Yu Chi Lei asked.
The stunningly beautiful woman shook her head, indicating she didn't know.
"Wei'er, seven years have passed, why hasn't your husband come looking for you yet?" Yu Chi Lei asked.
"Father, you don't know this, but Wei'er entered a magical door in her hometown, which allowed her to come here. I've been searching for my way back, but..."
"A magical door?"
Yu Chi Lei's old eyes widened in shock. "Where is that door now?"
"It's gone. After I came out, I could never see that door again. I stayed there for three years and gained nothing," the stunning woman said.
"Veer, if you can't go back, then stay here peacefully."
Yu Chi Lei hesitated, then said, "Actually, Han Feng's alchemy level is higher than mine. He has taken a liking to you, and I can't refuse him. However, there is a way to resolve this matter."
"What method?"
The stunningly beautiful woman's eyes lit up.
"Han Feng, as a sixth-grade alchemist, although slightly fond of women, has one particular quirk: he doesn't want women who are already married. If you are already married and no longer a virgin, I can offer some compensation and have someone mediate between us, and Han Feng will naturally stop pursuing you."
"But will he believe it?"
The stunningly beautiful woman's eyes lit up.
“A pharmacist like him can't be fooled, but what if it's true?” Yu Chi Lei said slowly.

Chapter 252 Maple City, Qiao Wei
"fact?"
The stunningly beautiful woman's heart sank.
“Wei’er, back then, Fen’er was very fortunate to have your help. Otherwise, she would not be in this world now. I am extremely grateful for that,” Yu Chi Lei said slowly. “Over the years, Lin’er has been deeply in love with you. I believe you have seen it all.”
Yu Chi Lei continued, “As long as you and Lin’er get married, we’ll take care of it tonight. Then, I’ll say that even before I mentioned it to you, you and Lin’er were already in love and it was a done deal. Then Han Feng won’t be able to say anything.”
"Wei'er, you are virtuous and kind. How wonderful it would be if you could become my daughter-in-law."
As Yu Chi Lei spoke, his eyes lit up.
"Godfather..."
Upon hearing this, the stunningly beautiful woman's expression changed. "Wei'er already has a husband and cannot marry anyone else. I can only disappoint Brother Lin's good intentions."
“Wei’er, your husband has not come looking for you all these years, and the Dou Qi Continent is vast and boundless. How can you possibly find him?” Seeing that his adopted daughter was unwilling, Yu Chi Lei could only sigh inwardly.
It seems there's no other way.
Han Feng gave them only three days, and today is already the second day.
If Wei'er isn't sent there before dark tomorrow...
It's likely that many Dou Huang powerhouses from Maple City will come to visit the Medicine Pavilion.
"Godfather, I am deeply grateful for your care and protection over the years!" The stunning woman bowed deeply to Yu Chi Lei. "To avoid implicating Godfather and the Medicine Pavilion, I have decided to leave!"
