Chapter 1349: 1349

“Hehe, Pill Fairy, why would you come here?” said Long Chen awkwardly . It seemed that she had heard everything he had said to Wan Qing .

In other words, she had heard his bragging about how she even came to him for pointers . He had truly embarra.s.sed himself this time .

However, what made his heart shake was the fact that the Pill Fairy’s cultivation base was absolutely terrifying . He hadn’t sensed her existence at all .

It had to be known that within Pill Valley, his nerves were always stretched taut because he couldn’t expose any holes . His spiritual perception was pushed to its peak constantly, but he still couldn’t sense her .

It was like the Pill Fairy had merged with heaven and earth . Standing there, she was like an ordinary mortal . He wasn’t even able to sense her spiritual fluctuations or Heavenly Dao energy .

“Long San, don’t be nervous . I just have a few things I want to discuss with you . I heard that you came here to the inner sect, so I also came . I wasn’t trying to eavesdrop on you . ” The Pill Fairy smiled . The smile was like a lily blooming, making him feel like a spring breeze was blowing by .

“Cough, that’s fine . I still have to thank you for what you did last time, or I’d probably have been expelled from Pill Valley . There’s a pavilion nearby, we can go and sit there . ” Long Chen pointed toward a distant pavilion .

The Pill Fairy nodded and walked beside him . She gently pulled back some stray hair that had blown over her forehead .

Her gentle movements contained a grace that moved Long Chen . Even though he had seen plenty of beauties, he still felt a unique aura from the Pill Fairy .

The pavilion was situated at the peak of a hill . From here, they could overlook the river below them . The scenery was not bad .

“You don’t need to be so courteous . Even if I didn’t interfere, you would have been fine . Furthermore, you have such a powerful backer . No one would be able to expel you just for killing Qu Chunsheng . ” The Pill Fairy looked at the scenery, her eyes s.h.i.+ning like stars in the night, yet also like gems in a deep sea .

“No matter how you put it, I still have to thank you . ” Long Chen smiled .

“I should be the one thanking you . When you killed Qu Chunsheng, you gave me an excuse to vent my dissatisfaction . I’ve been feeling much better since that day,” said the Pill Fairy .

“Oh? Then if you want to thank me, you can just treat me to a meal,” joked Long Chen .

The Pill Fairy smiled . She changed the subject . “The methods you taught that girl were very marvelous . I didn’t expect you to be such a master of the Pill Dao . ”

“I can’t accept such praise,” said Long Chen modestly . But he knew she had more to say .

“With your Spiritual Strength, talent, and comprehension skills, you can walk even further on the Pill Dao . In fact, your accomplishments wouldn’t be any lower than my own . Transforming into a flame cultivator is digging your own grave . ” As expected, the Pill Fairy only got to her point now .

Long Chen sighed, “A person can’t always do what they want . I’m just a country b.u.mpkin with no background . Even you, the Pill Fairy who is wors.h.i.+pped by countless disciples, a G.o.d-like existence, also have a similar helpless expression . Some things are just out of our control . ”

Long Chen had figured out the rough situation in Pill Valley . And through their few encounters, he also had a basic understanding of this Pill Fairy, which was why he said what he said .

A glimmer of sadness appeared in her beautiful eyes . She sighed, “Long San, they’re using you . Can you not tell?”

“I can tell . But at least I have some value this way . That’s a good thing . Now, I get whatever I want . What’s so bad about it?” Long Chen acted like he didn’t understand .

The Pill Fairy turned to stare into his eyes . Her eyes were completely calm, like the surface of a lake that could reflect anything .

“Uh, Pill Fairy, you shouldn’t stare at me like this, or I’ll be embarra.s.sed . ”

“Long San, you’re a curious person . I can’t see through you, but I know you’re smart . They’re using you now, but once you’re no longer valuable to them, they’ll toss you aside without a second thought . I won’t ask you to join the Divine s.h.i.+eld Alliance, but I hope you can join the neutral faction and not help either side,” said the Pill Fairy .

“It’s not possible . Protector Zhuo supported me, and I swore I would repay him . Before repaying him, I can’t leave him . ” In truth, when Long Chen said he had to ‘repay’ him, he was thinking of something completely different . But the Pill Fairy didn’t know this .

She was silent for a moment before bitterly smiling . “It seems I’m not good at persuading people . My first attempt is a failure . ”

“I know you’re being kind, and I’ll remember this . Ah, speaking of which, can I ask you a few things?”

“Asking is harmless . ”

“Then I want to ask, why is your conservative faction so stubborn? Pill Valley clearly has the ability to grow even stronger, so why do they still cower?” asked Long Chen .

“You really know how to ask questions . Your first one is the most difficult one and the reason why Pill Valley is split into two factions . In truth, it’s not that we’re conservative, but that certain people have forgotten the meaning behind Pill Valley’s existence .
