”Because...” Huang Yi slowly lowered her head, her slightly red face revealing a trace of sadness. ”Because you're my man, the only man I, Huang Yi, will ever have.”
Of course, Lin Zi Chen understood the meaning behind his words. Back in Huang Yi's family, he knew that Huang Yi was just like him, experiencing love for the first time. Although they were once married, Cao Gui had never given Huang Yi any feelings of a man or woman.
Soon after, Lin Zi Chen walked into the car and said: ”Master Lu, what kind of place is absolutely quiet around here? I need a space that belongs to me. ”
Lu Chenghao thought for a moment and said, ”Master, this is the outskirts. There is an undeveloped wasteland outside, is that okay?”
”Alright, let's go.”
Watching the car drive away, Huang Yi smiled bitterly: ”I was looking forward to seeing you.” Why did it become a 'Hope Jun'? Zi Chen, I wonder when will the next time I see you … ”
Because the wasteland that Lu Chenghao had mentioned wasn't too far away, the car turned into a bumpy road about ten minutes later. Not long after they drove off, Lu Chenghao called for Xiao Dao to stop the car, and the convoy also stopped.
Lin Zi Chen looked at his surroundings. Although it couldn't compare to the quiet and secluded mountains, there wasn't a better place to choose from. As long as he was far away from the crowd, he would be safe.
”Master Lu, regardless of whether I successfully concoct the pill or not, I will leave in two days. In these two days, you will take turns to guard here and won't allow anyone to get close. Can you do it?”
After all, Huo Qing wasn't by his side, so Lin Zi Chen could only place the treasure on Lu Chenghao. Other than Huo Qing and Sang Tian Lei, this was also the person he trusted the most.
Lu Chenghao nodded his head, and said solemnly: ”Don't worry, Master. Cheng Hao won't leave even an inch behind.”
Lin Zi Chen took a deep breath, turned around and walked deeper into the forest. He then chose a dead tree trunk and sat down cross-legged.
One had to say, this was a gamble. Once Lin Zichen started concocting pills, he could not afford to be distracted. If there were really opponents, there would only be two. The person would be destroyed or the pill would be destroyed.
He placed the cauldron in front of him and then spread out all the ingredients on the ground. As he looked at the ingredients, his mind began to quickly analyze them.
To an apothecary, it was impossible to grasp the forging methods of all kinds of pills in the world. Thus, most of the time, they would collect the ingredients and rely on the characteristics of the ingredients to determine how to forge them. Experience and talent were indispensable.
But right now, Lin Zichen did not care about the quality of the pills, as long as he could replenish his true qi, it would be enough. What he needed to do was to use his true qi fire to form the pill in the shortest amount of time possible, and then fight against Xia Yan Ting.
In order to save Huo Qing that time, Lin Zi Chen had no choice but to speed up the process of refining pills to deal with Wen Shan. Today, he would try again and face a high rank pill, Qi Condensation Pill, which was an essential pill for a martial artist who had yet to open his Qi Sea and reach the Transcending Mortality Stage.
Lu Chenghao saw Lin Zichen sitting cross-legged not too far away and said: ”Xiao Dao, leave all the men behind. Everyone else leave and return tomorrow morning, tell them to bring everyone when they come.”
”Yes, Master Lu.” Xiao Dao looked at Lin Zi Chen, then walked closer to Lu Chenghao and said, ”Master, is there really danger?”
Lu Chenghao shook his head: ”I don't know, but don't let your guard down. Do as I say.”
”Yes.”
As soon as his voice fell, a ”boom” was heard. Everyone turned to look, only to see the coiling dragon cauldron in front of Lin Zichen ignite with flames two to three meters high. The high temperature immediately spread out, and the wasteland that was originally in winter became warmer.

Fengbei City Police Station.
”Commissioner Liu, a lot of people have come to Fengbei recently. After investigation, most of them are warriors.” A man in a police uniform said.
The police chief of Fengbei City, Liu Changhong, nodded, ”Looks like the news is correct. The patriarch of the Xia family has given a written challenge to Lin Zichen. Zhang Chu, what is his background?”
”This... I really don't know, but he should have some background. He hasn't been in Fengbei for too long, and he can help Shiyin create a business like this.
”You don't know? Hmph, how did you become the head of the Criminal Investigation Department? ”Let me tell you, hurry up and investigate his background. Also, I don't care about any written challenge or martial artists. In short, we do not allow such a battle in Fengbei.” Liu Changhong said.
Zhang Chu saluted and said, ”Yes, Chief Liu. I will increase the police force to the foot of the Great Moon Mountain. If someone fights privately, it will disrupt public security and arrest!”
”Alright, go ahead. Remember to report to me tomorrow about that Lin Zichen.”
Liu Changhong had just finished speaking when several knocks sounded on the door. A policeman walked in: ”Commissioner Liu, a few people are looking for you outside.”
”Looking for me?” What for? Tell them that they are not free right now, and that they will speak of whatever it is in three days' time! ” Liu Changhong was not in the mood to receive them. After all, this arranged battle had already thrown Fengbei into chaos. As the police chief, he was under a lot of pressure.
”Commissioner Liu, but …” ”They are from Beijing and they are wearing military uniforms.”
