A Good Romance

Cheng Fei Jun had organized this Martial Arts Tea Party to, on one hand, select geniuses and have Luo Ji Feng recruit them. On the other hand, he also wanted to establish his personal prestige. When the time came, he would show himself and use his status as a Black Grade high level alchemist to naturally convince others to join him.

But now, Cheng Fei Jun had been completely forgotten in a corner, while Ling Han had obtained everyone's approval and gratitude. This really made Cheng Fei Jun seethe with anger.

Who asked him to shrink back at such a crucial moment?

In the world of martial arts, even if one's ability was weak, if one fought to the death, others would still give him a thumbs up and call him a good man. But fleeing without a fight and being afraid to fight in public was the most despised act.

Ling Han clasped his fists in greeting, then brought Liu Yu Tong and the others back to the inn. On the way back, Liu Yu Tong and the others were still unsatisfied, saying that since Ling Han had obtained first place, he should have asked Cheng Fei Jun to hand over that Restore Heart Pill.

This caused Ling Han to laugh loudly, and was even more disdainful of them. To think that he, the mighty Alchemy Emperor, would still have to eat a second-grade remnant pill concocted by a Black Grade high level alchemist?

What a joke.

Not long after returning to the inn, customers swarmed in like clouds.

Zhu Wu Jiu was already too busy, so Guang Yuan and Can Ye both went to help. Later, not only did the younger generation of the Nine Nations of the Desolate North come with Origin Crystals, even many alchemists from the Star Brilliance Pavilion rushed over upon hearing the news.

Those who had not broken through to the Flower Blossom Tier were all mortals, and mortals only had a lifespan of a hundred years. Who wouldn't want to live a few more years? The more powerful the elderly were, the more they cherished their lives. For the sake of living a few more years, they were really willing to pay any price.

Though the effects of hundred-year-old ginseng and ganoderma were not nature-defying, they could still prolong one's lifespan, and living three to five more years was definitely not a problem. Moreover, these things were very nourishing and could heal internal injuries, which was equivalent to prolonging one's lifespan.

Liu Yu Tong and Li Si Chan became the housekeepers, happily counting the Origin Crystals on one side, yet Hu Niu looked down on them. She thought to herself, 'these two silly girls, what's so good about Origin Crystals? They should be sticking to Ling Han.'

After a day of selling, Ling Han earned a shocking hundred thousand Origin Crystals. This was a fortune that would make one envious, and it was guaranteed that even the Imperial Family of Rain Country would at most take out a fraction of it.

The auction was nearing, and it would begin in two days.

On the other side, with the help and urging of the three Earth Grade alchemists, Ling Han's alchemist certification would soon be completed. At most, it would take another five days, and his proof of identity would be sent over.

Ling Han was very satisfied, and began to consider where he should go next.

The Star Brilliance Palace Hall was only a transit station for him to leave the Desolate North, so it was naturally impossible for him to stay here for a long time. He would also take the opportunity to certify as an Earth Grade alchemist, giving him a guarantee that he could do as he pleased.

Now that these two matters were almost completed, the next step would naturally have to be put on the agenda.

The Winter Moon Sect was going to open its doors and accept disciples.

After Ling Han heard this news from others, he considered for a while, and decided to go to the Winter Moon Sect.

Firstly, he wanted to inquire about his mother's whereabouts. Secondly, he wanted to collect some interest. For a large sect like the Winter Moon Sect, they definitely had their own medicinal garden. Ling Han planned to empty out their medicinal garden to enrich the space inside the Black Tower.

Who asked this sect to capture his mother and injure his father? If he didn't take revenge, how could he still be considered a human?

When he had enough strength, he would naturally kill Ao Feng and settle this grudge.

En, he would go to the Winter Moon Sect.

However, he had to hide his identity. Otherwise, with his identity as Feng Yan's mortal enemy, even if that Spiritual Infant Tier elite didn't kill him with his status as an Earth Grade alchemist, he would still be chased out. How would he be able to collect the Winter Moon Sect's medicinal garden then?

Because they had spent all their Origin Crystals and the Martial Arts Tea Party was over, many young people did not wait for the auction to begin. They directly set out on their journey, heading towards the Winter Moon Sect. However, among these people who had set out, some actually made a detour after walking for a short distance. They deliberately went to see Ling Han and told him a piece of news.

On their way, they noticed a few young people coming from the direction of the north region.

Could it be the likes of Bao Xin Ran again?

Ling Han thanked them, and these people once again set out on their journey. Ling Han could not help but feel rueful. He had killed Bao Xin Ran only because the latter had infringed on his interests, and had not considered too much. However, the result was that he had gained the hearts of many people.

Otherwise, they would have already left, so why would they deliberately come back to tell him?

But from the fact that they could leave freely, it could be deduced that these new outsiders should be different from Bao Xin Ran. Otherwise, they should have tried to kill them halfway, and not allowed them to leave.

Could it be that they had come to participate in the auction?

This was very possible. After all, there would be at least one Blue Scale Demonic Fruit for sale this time, so it was very normal that it would attract people from nearby.

In the middle of the night, that feeling of being watched came again.

Ling Han knew that Luo Ji Feng had definitely stared at him again. It was not the first time that this old guy had done something like this. However, under Ling Han's Eye of Truth, he had nowhere to hide.

However, Ling Han very quickly revealed a solemn expression, because Luo Ji Feng was actually wearing a mask today.

He was hiding his face, so it was obvious that he was about to do something bad.

Obviously, Ling Han had not given him the chance to make a move all this while, and finally, the old guy could no longer hold back his temper, and decided to make a move even if it was in the inn.

Ling Han hesitated internally. Should he immediately hide inside the Black Tower?

If he hid inside the Black Tower, then he would definitely be absolutely safe. However, he still had one more chance for the power boost from the Black Tower. Moreover, he was currently in the ninth layer of the Gushing Spring Tier, and as long as he could strengthen his foundation to an unshakable level, he would attempt to break through to the Spiritual Ocean Tier.

If he did not use it now, it would be equivalent to wasting an opportunity.

Most importantly, the power boost from the Black Tower was also a process of tempering his body, which was very beneficial to him. Thus, he definitely could not miss it.

Small Tower had also said that the later the chance for power boost, the better it would be. He was now in the ninth layer of the Gushing Spring Tier, and could not wait any longer.

With the power boost, he could possess the cultivation level of the ninth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier, and with his freakish battle prowess, the ninth layer of the Spiritual Ocean Tier was enough to battle against a Spiritual Pedestal Tier elite. Though the higher the cultivation level, the harder it was to battle against someone of a higher cultivation level, battling against someone in the second or third layer of the Spiritual Pedestal Tier should not be a problem.

After all, Luo Ji Feng was only in the third layer of the Spiritual Pedestal Tier.

If he used the Mysterious Three Thousand at full power, he would definitely have the chance to insta-kill him.

After making his decision, Ling Han immediately moved quietly and left the inn, fleeing towards a dark place in the distance.

With the senses of Luo Ji Feng's Spiritual Pedestal Tier divine sense, he naturally discovered Ling Han's departure at the first instant. The old man could not help but be slightly startled. How could it be so coincidental? Just as he was prepared to kill Ling Han even if he had to expose his identity, this brat actually left the inn by himself, creating an opportunity for him.

Strange.

However, he could not resist such temptation no matter what. In his mind, a mere martial artist in the first layer of the Gushing Spring Tier could not possibly pose a threat to him.

The old man leaped and also flew away, following closely behind Ling Han. He planned to catch up to him in a remote area and kill Ling Han. Firstly, he would solve a problem for Cheng Fei Jun, and secondly, he would have to extract the Strange Fire. Otherwise, Cheng Fei Jun would definitely not be able to seize the position of the ruler of the Star Brilliance Palace Hall.

After a mere ten minutes or so, Ling Han suddenly stopped. This was the plaza where the martial arts tea party had been held yesterday. There was still a large number of pergolas that had not been torn down. The surroundings were completely dark, as if it were a ghost town.

This was really a good place to kill — it was so spacious.

It was even more refreshing to read on one's phone.
