"Father!" Qin Fan raised his determined eyes and said to Qin Hong in a deep voice. At this moment, this man taught him a profound lesson and made him deeply understand the cruelty of this world. He respected him and called him "Father!" Father, "Give me time. As long as you give me some time, I will have the confidence to have the strength to protect the one you love! So please give me some time, father! Don't agree to anyone's proposal to my sister for the time being!"

"Time?" Qin Hong was first surprised that his son suddenly had such confidence, but soon he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Now, I'm afraid I really don't have much time to give you..."

"Father, are you talking about that..." Qin Li was also startled, trying to figure out the meaning of his father's words, and a hint of uneasiness gradually appeared on his face.

"Yes, the day of the Zhenwu Family's pilgrimage once every thirty years is coming soon!"

"A day of pilgrimage?" Qin Fan's mind moved slightly, and some memories related to it appeared in his mind.

In the Daqian Kingdom, there is a place in charge of awarding noble titles, called the Zhenwu Temple. Those who have made a significant contribution to the country will have their families given the title of "Zhenwu Family", ranging from ninth grade to first grade, from low to low. High, divided into nine grades in total!

But this title is not entirely hereditary!

In order to prevent the descendants of these heroes from becoming less enterprising because of their noble status, every thirty years, the heirs of these noble descendants under the age of 22 will be called to the Zhenwu Temple to undergo some tests. During the tests, , some families may be able to maintain their original grades, but some may be demoted! And if the heirs of this family cannot even reach the realm of martial arts masters, then the title of the True Martial Arts Family will be revoked!

Therefore, the title of the Zhenwu Family is only semi-hereditary, which means it is not completely inherited!

"About two hundred years ago, my ancestors of the Nanfeng Qin family achieved the title of a third-grade Zhenwu family. However, over the years, the number of descendants of our Nanfeng Qin family has become increasingly sparse, and there is no one who can compare with our ancestors. I am ashamed to say that the descendants of Bi can only retain the title of a ninth-grade Zhenwu family in my generation." When he said this, Qin Hong seemed to feel uncomfortable in his heart, and a look of pain appeared on his face. , he took a deep breath before continuing.

"That's why I have always felt ashamed of my ancestors, so I forced you to practice hard since you were a child. What I never expected was that this would have the opposite effect on you..." Qin Hong thought after taking a look at his son. I don't know what it feels like, "Until these years, your cultivation has been stagnant. I actually have given up hope on you, so the heir of this generation can only choose within the family..."

"Even so, what does that have to do with Qin Jin's marriage proposal?" Qin Fan frowned and asked in a deep voice. He was not really interested in inheriting the family, but Qin Li's marriage was what he cared about most. .

"Among the younger generation of the family, Qin Jin is now the clan member most promising to break through to the realm of martial arts. This means that he is the only one who meets the requirements of the family heir. Moreover, he is the son of the great elder, and the clan elders all think that he He is the perfect match for Li'er, so I will naturally consider his proposal of marriage carefully." Qin Hong turned around and said with his hands behind his back, as if he didn't want to see Qin Fan's reaction.

"What if I can also break through to the realm of a martial artist before the day of pilgrimage?" Qin Fan said lightly, but he still had a convincing confidence in his body.

"Although you have changed a lot and have more fighting spirit than before, and my father is also pleased with this, but it has been less than three years since the day of pilgrimage. How dare I believe that you can transform from a third-level martial artist in such a short period of time?"

How can a disciple reach the realm of an innate martial artist?" Qin Hong, who had his back to Qin Fan, had a glint in his eyes at this time. He was also very curious about his son suddenly becoming so confident. Could it be that Xiao Fan?

Got a special opportunity?

"What will it take for father to believe it?" Qin Fan raised his eyebrows and asked loudly.

"Okay, our family's annual test will be in three months. If you can perform to my satisfaction by then, I will believe you. I will withstand the pressure from the clan and refuse the marriage proposal from the elder, and make a marriage proposal before the pilgrimage.

I'll give you a chance to fight in the past three years! But if you still haven't changed my mind in three months, my father will have to make some plans for the future development of the family." Qin Hong thought for a while and then said in a deep voice.

Qin Fan said. His heart is also for his son. If this can inspire Qin Fan to work hard, he will naturally be happy to see it.

"It's a deal."

In his room, Qin Fan sat in the middle with his arms straightened. In front of him was the medicinal cauldron that Qin Li had just sent over. What was also delivered with it was some medicinal materials that Qin Fan asked Qin Li to help prepare.

, and a book that introduces the basic knowledge of medicine refining.

What surprised Qin Fan was that this cauldron was personally selected by Qin Hong and sent to Qin Li after he knew that Qin Fan wanted to learn how to make medicine. It is said that it is the Qin family's family medicine cauldron!

Little did he know that Qin Hong thought this was the opportunity that Qin Fan encountered, so he spared no effort to facilitate it.

This medicine cauldron is about half a meter high and is red in color. On the wall of this medicine cauldron, there are some special patterns and meticulous carvings. The surface also has a special luster. And the most special thing about this medicine cauldron is

There are nine fire dragons entwined on the outer wall, which are vividly carved. The mouth of the dragon happens to be the nine entrances to the fire, so it looks like the nine dragons are spitting flames into the cauldron.

At the top, the cauldron lid is movable, which is where the elixir is put. And on the four edges of the cauldron lid, there are seven small holes arranged in a special regular pattern, which are the places where Qi is released.

This cauldron is not extraordinary in any aspect, especially when Qin Fan just touched the medicinal cauldron, he found that the medicinal cauldron was still emitting a faint heat wave!

According to some unsystematic grading of medicinal cauldrons, medicinal cauldrons can be divided from second to best: ordinary cauldrons, fine cauldrons, Tiangong cauldrons (excellent in craftsmanship), and good luck cauldrons (won the creation of heaven and earth). Each cauldron is further divided into upper, middle and lower.

Third-class medicine cauldron that can automatically emit heat. The materials and workmanship are extremely exquisite, and the quality is at least a Tiangong cauldron! In his previous life, Qin Fan was the only inheritor of the Hidden World Alchemy Sect, and the cauldron he used was a medium Tiangong cauldron.

"This is at least a high-grade Tiangong cauldron!" Although he hasn't started refining medicine yet, Qin Fan secretly estimates that this medicine cauldron may be better than the one he used in his previous life. There are many theories that this is a heirloom of the Qin family.

I believe it a bit.

It is self-evident that a good cauldron can assist the alchemist. Having such a good cauldron made Qin Fan feel a little more excited. However, refining medicine requires a calm mind, so he did not start refining it right away.

Instead, he picked up the book Qin Li sent about the knowledge of refining medicine in this world and slowly flipped through it.
