Chapter 1336

As soon as he walked in, two Soul Transformation experts checked his badge before letting him continue .

Long Chen had originally thought that the Divine Pill Hall would be a huge cla.s.sroom with disciples studying diligently . He had imagined that it would be a boring life of constantly facing strict teachers and pill furnaces .

But the scene before him was completely different from what he had imagined . This place was a wonderland . It was a large change from the hasty tempo of alchemy outside .

The green gra.s.s was like a carpet, and the air was pure and clear, almost like it could cleanse a person’s heart and soul .

As he walked along the stone path, he suddenly heard tinkling laughter . That laughter was full of delight .

Turning at the corner, he saw several maidens chatting happily in a few swings hanging from large trees .

The maidens looked young, and each of them was a rare beauty . They were playing happily .

Long Chen stood in the distance . Looking at those happy maidens, he suddenly thought of Meng Qi, Tang Wan-er, Chu Yao, Yue Xiaoqian, and Ye Zhiqiu .

If one day they could leave this world of slaughter and find a wonderland like this, he would accompany them like this every day . They would have a pile of kids, and he wouldn’t trade such a future even for the chance to become a G.o.d .

Without realizing it, Long Chen became absent-minded and simply stood there like a wooden block . The more he stared, the more fed up he became with this world .

“Oh? There’s a new junior brother there . And he looks very young and handsome . Hey, junior brother, do you want to come and play?” One of the maidens saw Long Chen . She wasn’t the slightest bit bashful or embarra.s.sed . She even invited him to join them .

The other maidens stared at him curiously . Although three people would get to enter this place every two months, those people were mostly Jade Core experts . Someone like Long Chen with his Foundation Forging cultivation base was rare . More importantly, he was truly handsome .

Long Chen smiled and courteously said, “Thank you big sisters, but I still have some things to do . I won’t disturb you . ”

Long Chen didn’t even know how long it had been since he had smiled like this . This smile of his made him look like an innocent boy from next door, and it was very warm .

He could sense that these maidens were innocent and naive . They had no malice toward him . That was why his smile was very natural and sincere .

“Hey, junior brother, wait a moment . I have a bit of advice!” said one of them .

“Advice? Please, tell me . ” Long Chen was startled .

The maidens stopped swinging and walked toward Long Chen . One of them said, “Seeing what a nice boy you are, I’ll tell you this . Once you’re in the Divine Pill Hall, don’t join any faction . Just stay neutral . Otherwise, it’ll be troublesome . ”

The maidens all looked around, afraid others would hear them .

“Thank you for the warning . I understand . ” Long Chen was grateful . These maidens were clearly also neutral, the ones that Zhao Xiang had called opportunists . But they had taken the danger of offending both factions to warn him, and that made him grateful . At least, there were still some good people in the cultivation world .

Although they were few, it was because they were so few that they were to be treasured . But Long Chen was going to have to disappoint them . He had long since chosen his faction .

“Don’t you know it’s not good to randomly gossip?”

Just at this moment, three people walked over . The three were all men . The one who had spoken was their leader, and he was a large and st.u.r.dy man .

Long Chen immediately laughed upon seeing them . Inside the Divine Pill Hall, the male disciples wore white robes and the female disciples wore red robes .

But the ones in factions had special symbols as well . The conservative faction’s disciples had a small s.h.i.+eld mark on their collars to express their side .

As for Long Chen’s collar, there was supposed to be a small spear on it . But he had only just joined and hadn’t gotten his robes yet .

Seeing those three, he knew that they had come to greet him and give him a display of power to get him to join their side .

The maidens all shrank back, clearly a bit afraid of these three .

“Don’t you know it’s not good to spout c.r.a.p at others? Just how much s.h.i.+t did you eat to make your breath so smelly?” Long Chen already had a backing and was fully confident . He no longer needed to endure this .

“Brat, you’re courting death- pfft!”

That person charged forward, only to get punched in the face . His nose broke and blood splashed .

Long Chen wasn’t used to this . He found slapping people in the face much more pleasurable . But he didn’t dare to bring out his face-slaps because he was worried others would recognize him . His divine face-slapping art was unrivaled and unique . It would be too easy for others to recognize it .

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Attack together!”

That person held his nose in pain . With a furious roar, the three of them attacked him together .

The maidens all let out startled cries, not expecting Long Chen to actually take the initiative to attack them . Things instantly blew up .

Long Chen almost laughed upon seeing them attacking him . These people really didn’t know how to fight . If they only had this little skill, they’d have long since been killed in the outside world .
