Officer Feng was about to leave, and the two galactic warriors hurriedly stood up.
"Aiya, Officer Feng, no, no! Elder Feng, please don't lower yourself to Xiaoman's level. She just came from the New Territories a few decades ago and is a typical country girl. She doesn't know what it means to be an elder of the Alchemist Guild. Please don't take her words to heart. "
Then, the level-seven Region Monarch said sternly to Xiaoman, "Zhao Xiaoman! Are you still a member of the Fire Cloud Team? Do you know that everyone is living frugally to save money to buy antidotes for elixir toxins? Me, your Big Brother Li, and Sister Sisi and Big Brother Meng who didn't come today, the four of us urgently need antidotes for elixir toxins. Have you calculated how much money is needed? "
Zhao Xiaoman pouted and sulked.
This was the Level 5 Star Sector-level, Big Brother Li, who was beside him, also earnestly advising.
"Xiaoman, Captain Han is right. Our team struggles to survive every day and goes out to train. How can we earn money if we don't improve our skills? Do we need elixirs to improve our skills? Elixirs will cause elixir toxins. We can't even afford to buy the Elemental Gathering Elixir. Elixir toxins can't be taken lightly. Do you want the four of us to die from the poison? "
Zhao Xiaoman said sullenly, "Then you can buy some less toxic ones."
"Easy for you to say. Give me the money. I'll go buy it now!" Captain Han shouted sternly.
Zhao Xiaoman didn't have the money. Most of the native warriors in the Primordial Realm didn't have the money, much less a nobody from the New Territories like her.
After Lin Zhen left, Zhao Xiaoman also went out to train. She wandered in the New Territories for many years and didn't have much money to begin with. Later on, she cultivated to level-nine Star System in the Heavenly Gates and finally came to the Primordial Realm through the Heavenly Gates. However, she realized that the few Universe Crystals she had accumulated were useless in the Primordial Realm.
In the end, she was lucky to have met this adventurer team. There were four people in the team, three men and one woman. Zhao Xiaoman was the youngest in the team.
This team wasn't completely at the bottom. It was at least a Star Sector-level team, and Domain Monarchs had some status in the Primordial Realm.
However, they were all Domain Monarchs, and it was too costly to cultivate. They often could not make ends meet, and elixirs were a huge expense.
Back then, everyone was too eager for quick success and consumed too many pills, resulting in the accumulation of pill toxins. Now that the situation wasn't looking good, they didn't have enough money to buy good antidote pills. In the end, through their connections, they found this Alchemist Guild's Deacon Feng and wanted to buy some cheap pills from him.
Unexpectedly, this Deacon Feng was trying to make things difficult for him, and the way he looked at Zhao Xiaoman was also not right, which led to the current situation.
Seeing that Zhao Xiaoman had stopped talking, Captain Han said to her, "Xiaoman, be a good girl. Go sit next to Elder Feng and have a few drinks with him. Today's public relations mission is all on you. We are counting on you."
With that, Captain Han pushed Zhao Xiaoman towards Deacon Feng.
Zhao Xiaoman was stuck between a rock and a hard place. On the other side, Deacon Feng's eyes were glowing green. Looking at this beauty from the New Territories, he was almost drooling.
The way he saw it, as long as the other party had a favor to ask of him, Zhao Xiaoman would not be able to escape.
On the other side, Lin Zhen couldn't bear to watch anymore.
Of course, in this big world, this kind of thing happened countless times every day. Lin Zhen wouldn't care about other people, but not Zhao Xiaoman.
He stood up and walked towards the other side.
"Xiaoman!"
Zhao Xiaoman had been pushed to Deacon Feng's side. She was struggling when she suddenly heard someone calling her.
It was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through her mind. This voice was so familiar.
Before she turned around, her eyes were already filled with tears.
"Big Brother Lin!"
Zhao Xiaoman suddenly turned around and saw Lin Zhen standing there like a tree in the wind. She instantly burst into tears and ran all the way to Lin Zhen's side, throwing herself into Lin Zhen's embrace.
"Sob, sob! Big Brother Lin, am I dreaming? How can you be here? I haven't seen you for almost a thousand years, right? "
Lin Zhen gently stroked Zhao Xiaoman's hair and laughed. "Of course you're not dreaming. Isn't there a saying in our hometown that goes' if fate brings us together a thousand miles away '? Looks like we siblings are fated. "
"Yes! We're fated. I can even meet you in such a big Primordial Realm. Do you know? Actually, the person I wanted to meet the most was you, but after the dimensional universe came here, I couldn't find the original person. "
"Me too. None of my friends from back then are now. I can only slowly search for them. But luckily, I met Xiaoman today. This Southern Liang wasn't a wasted trip."
Deacon Feng's expression turned ugly when he saw the beauty in someone else's embrace.
However, Deacon Feng was also more shrewd. He didn't flare up immediately. Instead, he wanted to find out who this new kid was.
This person's realm was not worth mentioning. He was only at the Nebula stage. However, Deacon Feng didn't want to offend anyone around a big shot.
But when he heard that, he was immediately fuming.
He thought it was some big shot, but he didn't expect him to be from the New Territories. From his tone, he seemed to be from the same planet as Zhao Xiaoman.
This time, Deacon Feng suddenly felt emboldened. He threw the wine glass heavily!
Crack ~!
The wine glass shattered on the ground.
"Where did this country bumpkin come from? Don't you know where you are? Flirting with a girl? Why? Are you touched by meeting an old friend in a foreign land? If that's the case, do you want me to give you a place to catch up? "
Being praised as an elder by the surrounding people, Deacon Feng dared to call himself an elder in front of these small figures. After all, an elder sounded much more impressive than a deacon.
Deacon Feng's sudden outburst caught everyone off guard. Team Leader Han stood up directly and said to Zhao Xiaoman, "Xiaoman, don't forget why we're here today. Sit down quickly."
Zhao Xiaoman reluctantly got out of Lin Zhen's arms and wanted to pull Lin Zhen to sit down with her.
Captain Han waved his hand at Lin Zhen. "Little brother, I know you're from Xiao Man's hometown. You must have a lot to talk about after not seeing each other for over a thousand years. But you have to be smart and look at the situation. Today, we're having a banquet with Elder Feng, so you don't have to join us. How about this, you can order a few dishes and a bottle of wine, but don't spend more than two thousand dollars. Today, I'll treat you. Later … no, tomorrow, Xiao Man will have time to talk to you.
Team Leader Han said a lot. He thought he was giving Lin Zhen a lot of face. After all, Lin Zhen looked like he was only at the Nebula stage.
Zhao Xiaoman's hair stood on end as soon as she heard those insulting words.
She could be insulted, but Lin Zhen was definitely not!
Zhao Xiaoman also knew some things about Lin Zhen. After being sealed in the Elysium for 700 years, Big Brother Lin's realm was even lower than hers now.
Zhao Xiaoman's heart was filled with jealousy when she thought of how heroic Big Brother Lin was in the New Territories.
"Team Leader! Don't look down on Big Brother Lin. He was a top genius in the New Territories. However, he was delayed by some things. As long as Big Brother Lin has some time, he will definitely be able to make a name for himself in the Yuan Realm. "
"Okay, okay, okay! Even if you're right, Xiaoman, we still have to live our lives now. Little brother, can you be more self-aware? Don't stand behind a woman. Don't you think you're an eyesore here? "
"I really don't think I'm an eyesore!"
Lin Zhen directly sat beside Zhao Xiaoman. "If my sister wasn't here, you wouldn't have the right to ask me to sit here. However, since my sister is here, I really can't leave. I don't want her to be bullied."
Zhao Xiaoman's eyes were filled with tears. In her opinion, Lin Zhen was now in dire straits, but his personality had not changed. He was still able to protect her. Just based on this point alone, even if she had to fall out with him today, she had to protect Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen obviously saw through Zhao Xiaoman's thoughts, but he didn't explain it now.
Team Leader Han's expression changed a few times. He didn't expect Lin Zhen to be so stubborn. Moreover, he wasn't a big shot and was used to being cautious. He really didn't dare to offend Lin Zhen.
Although he was the one treating today, the real host should be Manager Feng. Hence, he turned his gaze to Manager Feng.
Deacon Feng felt that he had been left out, and his expression was extremely ugly. He looked at Lin Zhen and said sinisterly, "Young man, this is the Yuan Realm, not the small planet of your hometown. It's best to be careful when you speak and do things here. You'd better consider the words' alchemist 'carefully."
Lin Zhen sneered. "How should I address you?"
"This is Elder Feng," the man surnamed Li immediately answered.
"Oh, Elder Feng!"
Lin Zhen dragged out his voice, then suddenly said sternly, "As far as I know, alchemists have a strict hierarchy. Since you're an elder, why do you only have four gold stars on your chest? It seems like I should go to the guild and ask if a four-star alchemist can be an elder! "
Lin Zhen's words immediately hit Manager Feng's sore spot. If this matter was brought to the guild, he would definitely be punished.
"Ah! What elder? I'm just a deacon. They're just spouting nonsense. "
"Nonsense? You dare to agree to what others say? What kind of alchemist are you if you don't care about your rank? "
Manager Feng felt that there was a loophole in Lin Zhen's words and immediately said, "What right do you have to question whether I'm an alchemist or not?"
Lin Zhen laughed. "I heard it clearly just now. You claimed that you cultivated both ice and fire and refined antidote pills. Then let me ask you, where is your ice power?"
"Tsk! Of course I have ice power. Otherwise, how can I refine antidote pills? "
"Is that so? Then take it out and show it to me. However, I have to remind you that the power of ice obtained through props has very poor detoxification effects. If you really used the power of ice and fire with your bare hands, not only will I apologize to you today, I will also give you a hundred million as compensation on the spot. If you can't take it out, then I will have to go to the Alchemist Guild to talk about the matter of you pretending to be an elder. I believe that President Nalan, Vice President Dewayne, Great Elder Sima, Great Elder Yue, and Great Elder Charles will all be very interested in this matter."
The few people that Lin Zhen mentioned were the higher-ups of the Alchemist Guild. Of course, this memory came from Gu Yunting. Lin Zhen didn't recognize them, but it didn't stop him from using them as a shield.
Hearing Lin Zhen mention the higher-ups of the Alchemist Guild, Manager Feng was instantly dumbfounded.
This person really had a background!
