After Ye Qian left, Tianxing, fearing Long Chen might die, specially injected him with several medicines. Only then did he leave with a dark expression, unsure if he was going to ask the Pill Master for an explanation.
Because it was agreed at the time that Long Aotian and Ye Qian would humiliate Long Chen, since Long Aotian was at a critical stage. If he acted and Long Chen said something to deliberately provoke him, it could have a huge impact.
So, Long Aotian was just going through the motions, letting Long Chen see his realm and break his mindset.
As for humiliating Long Chen, he left it to Ye Qian, who had a grudge against Long Chen, to provoke Long Chen and expose a flaw in his mind amid endless humiliation and anger.
But Ye Qian didn't follow the promise at all and nearly killed Long Chen with a single punch, which enraged Tianxing.
Half an hour after Tianxing left, Long Chen slowly opened his eyes, a hint of surprise in his gaze.
"Ye Qian is actually here to help me?"
Only now did Long Chen realize that a new kind of flame power had appeared within him. This flame power was merely a fire seed, extremely weak, so weak that even Tian Xing hadn't detected it.
This was the unique Alchemy Spirit Fire of alchemy cultivators, and this fire was extremely rare—no one but alchemy cultivators could sense its existence.
Ye Qian's punch was sending the Danling Fire into Long Chen's body. For Long Chen, it was truly a timely help.
The alchemical fire entered Long Chen's body and began to slowly burn, gradually forming a mass of energy. This energy was no longer limited by the formation here and was slowly growing.
"With it, I have a place to store my power, and I won't have it all drained away again." Long Chen was secretly delighted; this gave him a glimmer of hope.
...
Inside the Divine Pill Pavilion, in a secret chamber, Ye Qian approached the Lord of Pills. The Lord of Pills closed his eyes in meditation, not opening them, and said, "
Is it done?"
"Yes, I have already followed your instructions and injected the Void Spirit Fire Seed into his body. Lord Tianxing did not notice any flaws, but I am somewhat puzzled." Ye Qian said.
The Lord of Pills slowly opened his eyes, looked at Ye Qian, and said, "Go ahead." "
Why should we help Long Chen? What we're doing is tantamount to betraying the Divine Clan. Although the Divine Pill Pavilion outside operates independently outside the Divine Clan's rules, which do not restrain us, we have never interfered in their affairs. In this way, ..." Ye Qian said.
The Divine Pill Pavilion had always ignored outside affairs, barely listening to anything outside except alchemy. Now, interfering in this matter, Ye Qian felt it was somewhat inappropriate, but since the Pill Master had given orders, he could only comply.
But this matter is extremely risky. If the Divine Clan finds out, the Pill Master will be inseparable from him.
"Long Chen has done you a favor. If it weren't for him, you would have gone further down the path of alchemy. A grudge unavenged is not a gentleman; being ungrateful is a petty man. So you must repay this favor."
Otherwise, when you reach a higher realm in the future, even a little regret will become an insurmountable barrier.
If Long Chen dies just like that, you have the ability to give him a chance, but you don't. Will you be at peace in the future? Will you develop inner demons?
If your nature is cold and cold, that's one thing, but the kindness deep inside you will create barriers again. Giving others a way out is also opening a door for yourself. "The Lord of the Pill said meaningfully.
Ye Qian was startled. He was actually very displeased with Long Chen, but deep down, he was very grateful to Long Chen. If Long Chen hadn't defeated him that time, he still wouldn't be able to settle down and cultivate steadily. Long Chen changed his attitude toward alchemy, which is why he made great leaps forward in both alchemy and realm.
He somewhat resented Long Chen, but he also had to thank him. If Long Chen died, the hatred would naturally disappear. However, as the Pill Master said, perhaps decades or centuries have passed, and he has reached a higher realm. If he recalls this event, would he feel regret and remorse?
"I understand. Thank you, Lord Dan, for your guidance." Ye Qian bowed respectfully, sincerely convinced. The Pill Master was farsighted, but in this regard, he was far behind.
The Lord of the Pill nodded and said, "Although you are rebellious, always competing, and a bit jealous, deep down you are kind-hearted."
It is precisely because of this that I have taught you everything I have learned in my life. Long Chen has worn down your sharpness, allowing you to return the sword to its sheath, keeping your sharpness in check, and your future future is limitless.
So, we owe Long Chen a huge favor, and we must repay it. As for the rules of the Divine Clan, they have nothing to do with us.
Our Divine Pill Pavilion only handles alchemy. Heh, Long Chen is also a pill cultivator, so what we do isn't really crossing the line. "
Hearing the Pill Master say this, Ye Qian smiled too. He hadn't expected that the usually fair and strict Lord Dan could also have an unreasonable side. Such a reason was far too far-fetched.
"But can just a single spark really change his fate?" Ye Qian couldn't help but ask.
"Then that's not our business. We've done what we needed to do. Whether we can escape fate depends on himself."
By doing this, you can be worthy of Long Chen, and I will be worthy of that old drunkard. "The Lord of Pills sighed.
Just as the Lord of Pills finished speaking, his expression suddenly turned strange. He said to Ye Qian, "Prepare your explanation. Tianxing is here, so he's definitely here to complain. Let's cooperate and don't let him see any flaws. This person is full of schemes and not a good person." "
...
On the Tianwu Continent, inside the Tianwu Grand Hall, the High Priest, Tianyu Zhenren, Qu Jianying, the old man, Mengqi, Chu Yao, Ye Zhiqiu, and other women gathered together. The atmosphere in the hall grew extremely tense.
"Let me go. I'll risk my life to get Long Chen back." The old man gritted his teeth, and upon learning that Long Chen had been scammed, he was so anxious he was about to lose his mind.
"This is basically a conspiracy. Long Chen has been captured. If we get into chaos again, the Tianwu Continent will be completely finished.
Not only will Long Chen be lost, but billions of lives on the Tianwu Continent will also be lost. Besides, where are we supposed to rescue him? Do you know where Long Chen is? Qu Jianying grabbed the old man and shouted angrily.
The old man was furious: "It's better than just sitting here and waiting. I'm going to fight the Divine Clan right now. With the Heaven-Opening Divine Stele helping me, even as a Holy Lord, I have the strength to fight." "
What's the point of relying on mere courage? You were like this when you were young, and even in old age, you still can't keep your composure.
When something happens, you have to find a way to solve it, not just lose your temper and act recklessly. That will only make things a mess. When will you mature enough? Qu Jianying cursed angrily.
"What use is maturity? Your heart belongs only to your Tianwu Continent, while I only care about our children.
In your eyes, this old man has never been useful. I'm just like this, and I can never change it in my life. Go find whoever you like. I just want to save my child. The old man was furious too, suddenly stood up, and walked out.
"You..."
Qu Jianying was trembling with anger, tears streaming down his face: "You bastard, how can you say such hurtful things?" The
old man was walking out, but Li Tianxuan grabbed him. Li Tianxuan hurriedly said, "Old man, please don't be so angry. Be anxious. Everyone here is anxious, but as the alliance leader said, haste won't solve the problem."
And you don't need to worry. I guarantee with my head—Long Chen."Absolutely not dead. Everyone
was stunned. Why was Li Tianxuan so certain? Just as everyone was stunned, a voice came from outside the hall:
"I can also guarantee with my head. Long Chen will definitely be fine."
As he spoke, a middle-aged man dressed in white, carrying a long sword on his back, walked in.
Mengqi, Chu Yao, Ye Zhiqiu, and Tang Wan'er were shocked, hardly able to believe their eyes. Tang Wan'er exclaimed in delight, "
Sect Leader!"
