”I need to gather some ingredients to concoct the Congealed Rotation Pill!” Lin Cheng said.
Zhu Ziyang heard this and could not help but mutter, ”This freak is finally about to breakthrough to the Arterial Circulation Realm!”
Even though he knew Lin City was about to break through to the Pulse Wheel Realm soon, seeing him open his meridians again and again before his qi, blood, and bones had reached their peak, Zhu Ziquan was so shocked that he was almost numb.
Now that she heard Lin City was preparing to break through to the Arterial Circulation Realm, Zhu Ziquan seemed to have let out a long sigh of relief.
If he stayed with such an abnormal person for too long, it would cause him to lose all will to fight!
Lin City glanced at her and said, ”You don't have to worry. At most, in a few days, we'll go to Yongan City, and then I'll remove the poison from your body. With your talent, I'm afraid you won't be slower than me in cultivation.”
From the examination of her meridians in Lin City, he knew that her talent was extraordinary. Even though Lin City had no cultivation experience and did not know how good her talent was, Lin City knew that she was definitely better than him.
”You didn't forget to treat my poison!” Zhu Zi rolled her eyes at him. Thinking of how this shameless little thief had pinched her with poison all the way here, she hated him so much that her teeth itched.
”Let's go.”
Lin Cheng smiled faintly.
Boundless Forest!
The moment they stepped into the forest, Lin City was slightly dazed.
He was only here to pick the herbs. In fact, his true purpose was to come to Boundless Forest to take a look.
That's right!
The mountain that Lin City brought along Bamboo Hill was the mountain range that belonged to the Boundless Forest. It stretched all the way to the vicinity of Yongan City. And in the depths of Boundless Forest, there was something that Forest City had been looking forward to for a long time — — Azure Flame!
Although the azure flames were at the other end of the Boundless Forest, which was still hundreds or even thousands of miles away, Lin City was already feeling impatient and wanted to take a look inside the forest first.
Because they were in the outer perimeter of the Boundless Forest, the two of them did not encounter any dangers. Occasionally, a few wild beasts would pass by, but they would not cause much harm to the two of them.
On the other hand, there was an indiscernible leopard that had been easily killed by Lin City. To ordinary adventurers, this was a dangerous wild beast, but it was actually enough for two people to have a feast of barbecue!
The Boundless Forest stretched for thousands of miles, and many of them contained heaven and earth treasures. Ordinary medicinal herbs were quite common, and Lin City had been harvesting for three whole days, almost filling up the remaining space in the storage bag.
”Where are you going once we reach Yongan city?” Lin Cheng suddenly asked.
”I want to go to the East Continent Academy.” Zhu Ziyang said.
Lin Cheng was stunned for a moment. He had not thought that Zhu Ziyang would also want to go to the East Region Academy. He recalled Lu Yuanzi's request and said, ”Then we can continue to travel together.”
Bamboo Fork asked, ”You're also going to the East Continent Academy?” ”That's right. With your apothecary talent, entering the Eastern Region Academy will be an easy task.”
Lin Cheng shook his head, ”I don't want to join the East Continent Academy, but to look for someone.”
In his previous life, in order to be able to step onto the path of cultivation, he came to the East Continent Academy to register, but was instead humiliated by the teacher in charge of student recruitment.
Right now, he had a great number of martial arts and combat skills in his mind, which could help him reach the Danhai Realm. Why would he need to go to the East State Academy and be restricted?
Just as Lin Cheng wanted to explain, he suddenly heard voices in front of him. Immediately after, he saw a few people walking out from the forest.
”Huh?”
A surprised exclamation was heard, ”What a beautiful woman!”
Zhu Zi's delicate eyebrows knitted together, and her face revealed a displeased expression. She was about to open her mouth to reprimand him, but Lin Cheng stopped her.
”Don't be angry, we'll see what happens.” He could already see that the few people walking out from the forest were being led by a well-dressed youth. Behind him were three burly men.
It was obvious that these three people were the servants of a certain family's young master. The youth's gaze was fixed on the bamboo stick, his eyes revealing a lustful and evil look.
”Young mistress, how should I address you?” The youngster smilingly asked as he looked at the bamboo stick.
As he spoke, his gaze swept over Zhu Ziyang's body. When he saw her curvaceous body, his eyes began to shine even more brightly.
”Scram!”
Bamboo's face turned cold as he said coldly.
The young man laughed out loud: ”Little girl, in this Yongan city area, those who dare to make us, Di Changqing, scram have yet to be born! ”Let me introduce myself. I am Di Changqing, the second young master of the Zhai Clan of Yongan City. If …”
”Scram!”
Zhu Zifu let out a cold growl, interrupting Di Changqing. She was extremely disgusted with this kind of playboy.
After being scolded twice in a row, Di Changqing's face turned ugly, ”Girl, looks like you didn't hear what I just said!” Since you refuse the toast, I'll have to let you have the forfeit! ”Arrest that little girl and kill the men …”
Zhu Ziquan's expression changed. He never thought that this Di Changqing would actually be so vicious that he would easily kill Lin Cheng!
Swish!
In a split-second, Lin Cheng who had been silent all this time suddenly made his move. A dazzling light flashed and appeared right in front of Di Changqing.
A short sword with an incomparable murderous intent was approaching Di Changqing!
Ah!
Di Changqing was both frightened and furious. He let out a loud roar out of instinct, wanting to dodge subconsciously. However, the speed of that short sword was way too fast. He didn't even have time to react as he could only watch the short sword pierce towards his throat.
”Clang!”
