After the initial shock, Luo Hong, Kong Zhi, and the other members of the Alchemist Alliance walked over to praise Linlong.
"Linlong, as expected of a disciple of our Alchemist Alliance. As expected of someone personally taught by Teacher Kong Zhi." Luo Hong praised Linlong. Although he knew that Kong Zhi did not teach Linlong anything, the Alchemist Alliance was proud of him.
"President, you're overpraising me." Linlong smiled.
"Linlong, I'm getting old and it's time for me to retire. It looks like the Alchemist Alliance will have to be handed over to a young man like you," Luo Hong said.
Hearing Luo Hong's words, the surrounding people could not help but be stunned. Luo Hong's words were no small matter. He was clearly reserving his position for Linlong.
"Not only did Linlong obtain first place in the Alchemy Competition, but he also solved 100 questions in a short period of time in the secret realm. His strength is definitely at the level of a fifth-grade alchemist. Such a young talent is definitely qualified to be our Alchemist Alliance's president."
The other instructors of the Alchemist Alliance could not help but say the same.
Even Gu Qi subconsciously spoke up. He no longer had any thoughts of competing with Linlong.
Hearing their words, Linlong shook his head. "President, I appreciate your kind intentions. However, Linlong is still young and needs more training. He is not qualified to be the president of the Alchemist Alliance."
"I'm not asking you to take up the position immediately. What I mean is, when you mature in the future, you must come back and take over my position." Luo Hong pretended to be serious.
"Since the president is so kind, let's see if I can fight for it." Linlong laughed.
Just as they were talking, a cold voice suddenly came from behind Linlong. "Linlong, I, Qin Xiaoyu from the Yin Sifting Sect, challenge you!"
Linlong was slightly taken aback. He turned around and saw a young but extremely beautiful girl standing not far away from the crowd. Who else could it be other than Qin Xiaoyu?
"She's the Yu who was with De in the secret realm."
"I didn't expect her to be from the Yin Sifting Sect. How surprising."
Looking at Qin Xiaoyu, the youths who had just rushed out of the city and gone to the mystic realm all started shouting.
"Senior Brother Lin Long, teach this Qin Xiaoyu a lesson. Let her know the power of our Alchemist Alliance. She actually dared to sneak into our Alchemist Alliance's secret realm. She must be tired of living."
"Exactly. Senior Brother Lin Long, for the sake of our central territory, for the sake of our Alchemist Alliance, you must accept the challenge and teach her a fierce lesson."
Seeing that Qin Xiaoyu was actually bold enough to challenge the Stellarsky City, some people commented.
Seeing Qin Xiaoyu's delicate features, some people secretly shook their heads. They thought to themselves that Lin Long could even deal with a Martial Overlord. Qin Xiaoyu was just courting death.
After shouting for a while, everyone's gazes focused on Linlong, waiting to see what he would do.
"Fine, I, Lin Long, accept your challenge." Lin Long smiled faintly as he looked at Qin Xiaoyu.
Upon hearing Linlong's reply, Qin Xiaoyu's delicate body visibly trembled.
After calming down, she took out a Talisman Sword. After yelling, she stabbed it straight at Linlong.
Qin Xiaoyu's strength had also reached the Martial Lord realm. She was truly a rare genius. The surrounding people who saw through Qin Xiaoyu's strength couldn't help but hiddenly nod their heads.
In an instant, Qin Xiaoyu's Talisman Sword, which was covered with faintly burning flames, had already arrived in front of Linlong. However, what shocked everyone was that in such a crucial moment, Linlong still did not move.
What is Linlong doing? Does he not know that his opponent's Talisman Sword can kill? Such a thought couldn't help emerging in their hearts.
Even an expert like Luo Hong's face changed greatly. With Qin Xiaoyu's speed, if Linlong did not react at all, it would be troublesome. If it was light, he would be heavily injured by Qin Xiaoyu. If it was heavy, he would be killed by a single strike.
At a time like that, even if they wanted to go up and stop it, it was too late because Qin Xiaoyu's sword aura was already too close to Linlong.
However, Linlong still did not react, as if he did not think Qin Xiaoyu could pierce through him with a single strike.
Seeing this scene, some people in the surroundings even exclaimed in shock.
As for Luo Hong, he had already closed his eyes in despair. The same was true for Kong Zhi. It was not easy for the Alchemist Alliance to produce a genius that could shake the entire Chaotic Sky Continent. Who would have thought that such a genius would die so mysteriously?
However, the scene that they had anticipated did not happen. For some reason, Qin Xiaoyu's sword actually stopped in front of Linlong's chest and did not pierce through, even though they could see that the sword had already pierced through Linlong's clothes.
Could it be that Qin Xiaoyu thought that she had already restrained Linlong and wanted to play a game of cat and mouse? However, did she not know that Linlong could defeat her with just a wave of his hand?
All sorts of doubts flashed through their minds.
At this moment, Qin Xiaoyu suddenly said coldly, "Why don't you dodge?"
"Because I know that you won't kill me," Linlong said indifferently.
Even though he said that, he still did not move.
"Who said that I won't?" As she spoke, Qin Xiaoyu suddenly pulled back her sword and pierced it towards Linlong's chest again.
Just when everyone thought that Qin Xiaoyu was really going to pierce through this time, Qin Xiaoyu's sword actually stopped in front of Linlong's chest again.
"Why don't you retaliate? Why?" Qin Xiaoyu suddenly shouted.
To the astonishment of the surrounding people, Qin Xiaoyu's shout was clearly accompanied by a sobbing tone. Moreover, Qin Xiaoyu's eyes were also clearly filled with tears.
The two of them definitely had some sort of relationship in the past. At this moment, how could they not see it?
"Ah …" Linlong suddenly let out a sigh.
After this sigh, Qin Xiaoyu suddenly pulled back her sword again. However, this time, she did not pierce it towards Linlong's chest again. Instead, she slashed it towards her own neck.
Seeing this scene, someone immediately cried out in alarm.
Although Qin Xiaoyu was a member of the Yin Sifting Sect, they did not want to see such a beautiful girl commit suicide in front of them.
However, the sharp sword ray ultimately did not cut through Qin Xiaoyu's snow-white skin. This was because Linlong had made a move. Just as the sword ray was about to slash her neck, Linlong suddenly struck Qin Xiaoyu's hand. The sword was immediately repelled and deeply embedded in the mud several meters away.
Only the sword hilt that was exposed could not help but tremble.
"If you don't retaliate, why won't you let me die!" Qin Xiaoyu cried.
After saying that, she raised her hand and slashed towards her own neck again. However, she still could not do as she wished because Linlong had already grabbed her hand.
In order to prevent her from doing anything foolish, Linlong could only knock her out with a palm strike.
At this moment, how could the surrounding people not see what was going on?
It was clear that Qin Xiaoyu deeply loved Linlong, but due to the pressure from her sect, she had no choice but to challenge Linlong to a duel. However, she could not do it in front of Linlong, who did not intend to retaliate.
Feeling that she had let down her sect, she finally chose another method, which was to commit suicide to atone for her sins. However, Linlong did not allow her to do so.
What a loyal and affectionate girl. After understanding this, the surrounding people sighed in their hearts.
They sighed that such a girl was born in the Yin Sifting Sect. If she was born in the Central Region, it would be such a good marriage.
"Husband, what's going on?"
At this moment, Lin Shiyin, who had just arrived at the back of the crowd, rushed out and asked.
"Shiyin, bring her back first," Linlong said to Lin Shiyin.
Although Lin Shiyin had just arrived at the back of the crowd, she had already seen the scene of the two fighting from afar. Therefore, she could already guess what was going on. However, she did not say anything and only asked the servant girl who came with her to bring Qin Xiaoyu back.
At this moment, the surrounding people pretended that they did not see anything and left one after another.
"Husband, can you tell me about her?" Lin Shiyin asked as she walked.
Linlong had told her about Chuxi Town and the Su sisters in Chuxi Town, but he had not told her about Qin Xiaoyu.
"Ahem …" After coughing awkwardly, Linlong told her about the trials and tribulations he had gone through with Qin Xiaoyu in the mystic realm.
Seeing that Qin Xiaoyu was such a loyal and affectionate girl, Lin Shiyin was relieved.
She was an open-minded girl and had never thought of dominating Linlong. She only hoped that Linlong would love her, so she accepted Qin Xiaoyu in her heart.
Not long after arriving at the Alchemist Alliance, Qin Xiaoyu woke up. The first thing she saw was an extremely gentle and beautiful girl sitting in front of her bed.
"You're awake. This is a bowl of medicinal soup that I just brewed. Drink it." Seeing that she had woken up, the other party took a bowl of medicinal soup and smiled.
Qin Xiaoyu, who had already sat up, shook her head slightly and looked at the other party. "You're Lin Shiyin, right?"
She had seen the other party by Linlong's side many times, so even though she did not ask for her name, she knew that the other party should be Lin Shiyin.
"Yes, I am." The other party nodded.
"I really envy you," Qin Xiaoyu said.
"You can stay. The Lin family will not reject you," Lin Shiyin suddenly said.
Can I stay? Qin Xiaoyu laughed bitterly in her heart.
As a disciple of the Yin Sifting Sect, how could she stay in the enemy's home? However, she could not kill Linlong.
"Forget it." Qin Xiaoyu shook her head and stood up.
Lin Shiyin wanted to say something but did not say it in the end.
Then, she watched as Qin Xiaoyu walked out of her room.
