Chapter 20 Line of Credit

As soon as he arrived at the alchemist guild, Long Chen tried to go to Yun Qi’s refining room . But he was stopped as soon as he entered the inner division .

The alchemist guild was divided into inner and outer divisions; the outer division was open to the empire . The examinations to become an alchemist were all held in the outer division .

But the inner division was the true alchemist guild . Last time, Long Chen had only managed to enter the inner division for his test because grandmaster Yun Qi had been leading the way, so naturally he hadn’t been blocked .

“Unqualified people cannot enter the inner division . ”

The guard in front of the door was a youngster not much older than Long Chen . He was wearing medicinal robes for a youth, and his expression was arrogant as he looked down on Long Chen .

Long Chen faintly smiled and flashed his tablet to him . He then walked right in under his shocked expression .

Seeing his arrogant expression change so quickly to shock, Long Chen couldn’t avoid being somewhat pleased .

It seemed that the old him had been suppressed for just too long . Now that he finally could finally raise his head, he had started to become undisciplined and selfish . But he knew inside that he didn’t have time to waste on such petty things .

When he entered the inner division, Long Chen slapped his forehead; he had forgotten to ask whether grandmaster Yun Qi was even there . If he wasn’t even there, wouldn’t this entire visit have just been a waste?

Just as he was regretting it, a young lady walked past him . Without even thinking about it, he stopped her and asked, “Excuse me, do you know where grandmaster Yun Qi is?”

That young lady had been walking with her head down, and she appeared slightly irritated to be stopped out of nowhere . Raising her head, she saw a thin and weak youngster looking at her . She coldly said, “Why are you looking for grandmaster Yun Qi?”

Long Chen became slightly distracted . This woman was extremely pretty; she might not be comparable to Chu Yao and Meng Qi, but she was definitely a rare beauty that could only be found one every thousand miles .

Although she was pretty, her gaze caused people to feel a bit unwell . Her gaze seemed to say she didn’t believe in good people and there was a difficult to conceal arrogance .

“I just want to know where grandmaster Yun Qi is . Can this young miss tell me?” Long Chen might have been a bit displeased inside, he still continued asking very politely .

“Just who are you? Why are you looking to see grandmaster Yun Qi?” she guardedly asked .

Being questioned twice instead of being answered, Long Chen shook his head and no longer bothered with her . He went deeper in to look for someone else to ask .

“Hey, I’m asking you a question . Why are you so rude?” She became angry when he didn’t reply despite her asking twice .

Long Chen only just took a couple steps before turning to look at her . “You’re here for medicine right?”

“What?” she asked distractedly .

“You must have a mental illness, so don’t run around all over the place . ”

Long Chen’s cold reply had just rang out and he was just turning to leave, when unexpectedly a strong gale appeared behind him . She charged toward his heart along with an angry shout .

“Brat, you’re asking for death!”

Long Chen was quite startled inside; that lady had appeared weak and frail, but her attack caused wind so powerful that it made it difficult for him to breathe . She was shockingly at the peak of Qi Condensation .

As for the palm attack she sent towards him, it contained her absolute strength .

Because all of Long Chen’s spiritual energy was hidden within his FengFu Star, he appeared like a very weak scholar . Even ordinary Qi Condensation cultivators would be heavily injured by such a palm . If he really was normal mortal, it would be very possible for him to die . This uncalled for attack was extremely vicious .

Since Long Chen was already irritated with her, he also didn’t hold himself back and sent out a kick .

Bang!

Before her palm could even reach Long Chen, his one kick smashed into her stomach and sent her flying back .

The woman was sent several meters back before colliding into a drying shelf for medicinal ingredients . The six meter tall shelf collapsed, and all the ingredients on it tumbled down and buried her beneath them .

With an angry roar, the medicinal ingredients flew out as she rushed out, her hair a mess and covered in traces of medicinal powder .

“Go die!”

Flames were practically shooting out of her eyes . The aura around her body exploded out . Slamming her hands together, a golden ripple appeared from her hands and she rushed towards Long Chen .

Long Chen cursed his bad luck at encountering such a brutish woman . How did he end up encountering such a lunatic today?

This attack was clearly a Battle Skill with an extremely great power . Seeing that she wanted to take his life, Long Chen’s face turned cold .

He had a Pill G.o.d’s soul, and so he had some superficial battle experience . But describing it as superficial was only in regards to a Pill G.o.d .

The current enemy Long Chen was facing was just an ant to him . His ‘superficial’ experience was more than enough . Having such an experience gave him great skills, and handling her was a piece of cake .

The only reason she wasn’t injured from his kick was because he hadn’t suffused any spiritual energy into it . But she wasn’t grateful for this and instead wanted to kill him .

Killing intent slowly condensed within Long Chen . Seeing this woman charge at him, he might not kill her, but if she dared come at him, Long Chen would teach her an unforgettable lesson .
