Lin Cheng was secretly vigilant in his heart. He held onto the hilt of the long saber and stared fixedly at the female warrior on the carriage.
Soon, the horse carriage arrived in front of Lin City. Lin Cheng backed away a few steps without leaving a trace behind. He saw that the female martial artist was overjoyed. "Benefactor, I finally caught up to you. Your speed really isn't slow!"
Lin Cheng curiously asked, "Big sis, do we know each other?"
"Benefactor may not know me, but I do."
The female warrior looked at Lin Cheng's vigilant eyes and could not help but ask, "Does benefactor still remember that ten days ago, a martial artist came back from outside the city covered in blood to seek help? Was the Three Treasures Pill you refined able to save his life?"
Lin Cheng nodded his head and replied, "Of course I remember!"
The reason why his Three Treasures Pill had been able to cause such a huge commotion in Dongluo City was because it had coincidentally caught the life of a dying martial artist in front of everyone. Once he took three of them, he would be able to bring the dead back to life.
Was this female martial artist related to that dying martial artist?
As if seeing the doubt in Lin Cheng's heart, the female warrior cupped her fists and said, "Benefactor, the martial artist that you saved is my husband!"
Lin Chen suddenly realized, "So you are that martial artist's wife!"
The female martial artist nodded and said, "It was all thanks to benefactor's Three Treasures Pill that my husband was brought back to life. We will remember your great kindness in our hearts!"
Lin Cheng waved his hand and replied, "This is nothing. Strictly speaking, your husband's life wasn't saved by me. If he wasn't extremely tenacious and persevered to the point of coming together, I wouldn't have been able to save him even if I wanted to. Furthermore, I was concocting pills and I was not aware of the situation. The ones who really saved your husband were the shopkeepers who came together. "
"We will remember your kindness as well. "However, if it wasn't for the Three Treasures Pill that benefactor concocted, my husband would have perished. My husband and I have always wanted to thank benefactor, but Master Chen said that benefactor does not like to see outsiders. We are unable to meet benefactor, so I can only stay here and wait."
The female martial artist gratefully said, "Today, I saw benefactor leave the city, so I drove here."
Hearing the female warrior's words, Lin Cheng realized that Chen Yongwen had already started to prepare to control him. Fortunately, he had left in time, otherwise, Chen Yongwen might have tried to kill him.
"I'll accept your thanks, but I'm in a hurry right now. Please go back." Lin City saw that it was already getting late. If they continued to delay, it would be very difficult for them to reach the relay station before nightfall. Thus, they decided to immediately travel.
"Sir, where are you going? Let me send you there." The female fighter said.
"There's no need. You should go home and take care of your husband. I can continue on my journey." Lin Cheng shook his head and rejected the offer.
The female warrior said, "My husband is free to move. He doesn't need anyone to take care of him. Benefactor, please give me a chance to repay this debt of gratitude."
Seeing that the female martial artist had spoken to this extent, Lin Cheng hesitated for a moment and then nodded, "Okay, then I'll trouble you to send me to the nearest relay station."
The female warrior immediately nodded happily, "No problem, my husband and I will often go out hunting to complete missions. I am very familiar with the outside of the city, please get on the carriage. We will arrive at the nearest station in four hours."
After saying that, she pulled open the curtain of the carriage and invited Lin Cheng onto the carriage.
"In that case, thank you very much."
Lin Cheng did not hold back and got on the car.
The female martial artist sat in front and waved the whip in her hand, causing the carriage to quickly start running.
Through their conversation, Lin City found out the name of this female martial artist: Chen Hong. The two of them were adventurers from Dongluo City. They usually went out of the city to hunt, as well as to accept quests from various guilds.
Lin Cheng slightly nodded his head. No wonder this Chen Hong seemed so capable and proficient in driving cars. So she was also an adventurer.
However, Chen Hong's cultivation level was not high, only at the sixth level of the Rebirth Realm. Considering her age of about thirty, it would be difficult for her to step into the Pulse Wheel Realm.
However, this was not absolute. If he could obtain heavenly materials or other fortuitous encounters, Chen Hong's strength would naturally have room for further improvement.
"Benefactor, I heard that you left and came back together?" Chen Hong was a very talkative person. She was very generous and did not have the shyness of a little girl. She took the initiative to ask.
"I plan to go out and train for a while. I plan to stay in Dongluo City; it will be difficult to increase my strength." Lin Cheng said. He didn't mention the contradictions between him and Chen Yongwen. He would just remember these things in his heart.
Chen Hong asked, "Then, benefactor, where do you plan on going to gain experience?"
Lin Cheng pondered for a moment before replying, "Let's head to Yongan city."
"Yongan city?"
Chen Hong thought for a while and said in surprise, "Is it that Yongan city in the middle of the Eastern Region? That doesn't belong to the Star Luo Country anymore, right? How could benefactor think of going so far? Wouldn't the Great Luo Mountain Range in the northeast be more suitable for training? "
Without waiting for Lin City to reply, she suddenly thought of something and said, "That's right, a demon beast appeared in the outer region of the Great Luo Mountain Range. That place has become extremely dangerous.
Lin Cheng smiled, "I have other things to do in Yongan city."
"Does benefactor plan on joining the East Region Academy?" Chen Hong asked.
"East Region Academy?"
Lin Cheng pondered for a moment before asking, "Are you talking about the East State Academy that has the title of 'Pearl of the Eastern Region'?"
Chen Hong nodded. "That's right, I have a cousin who is currently in the East Region Academy. She wrote a letter a while ago saying that the East Region Academy has begun recruiting students this month. Benefactor's alchemy skills are so excellent. It should be easy for her to enter the East Region Academy."
Lin Cheng laughed. "We'll see."
If not for Chen Hong's mention of him, he would have almost forgotten that there was an East Region Academy in the middle of the Eastern Region.
In his previous life, in order to find a way to change his physique and walk on the path of cultivation, he had also gone to participate in the student recruitment test.
Moreover, because of his physique as a cripple of the Heaven's Path of Life and Death, he had even been humiliated by the recruitment teacher back then. At the same time, the other youths participating in the exam were also mocking him.
Now that he thought about it, it felt like a lifetime ago.
In reality, the reason why Lin City wanted to head to the Central Region of the Eastern Region was not because he wanted to join the academy. The reason why he wanted to head to Yongan City was because it was relatively close to the Boundless Forest.
The Boundless Forest was the true goal of the Lin City.
Because in the Boundless Forest, there was one thing that Lin City dreamt of — azure flames!
It was because he was humiliated when he went to the East Continent Academy to participate in the student recruitment examination that he left in anger. He wanted to enter the Boundless Forest to search for treasures of heaven and earth, hoping to change his physique.
By chance, not only did Lin City not die, but instead, they found the existence of the azure fire.
A few years later, he was well-prepared and came back. After going through countless hardships, he finally managed to obtain a wisp of azure fire and his alchemy skills improved by leaps and bounds.
Seeing Lin City fall silent, Chen Hong thought that he did not have the confidence to pass the East State Academy's assessment, so she said, "Benefactor, you do not need to worry. With benefactor's alchemy skills, the East State Academy will definitely welcome you in, by the way, if benefactor gets there, you can go find my cousin. She is called Zhao Qingyan, and if you mention my name to her, she would know."
Lin Cheng smiled as he nodded his head, "No problem, thank you very much."
As he spoke to here, Lin Cheng suddenly remembered something.
If he remembered correctly, in Lin Yu's memories, Lin Yu's fiancee, Shi Yueming, seemed to be in the Eastern Region Academy.
That's right!
He thought back for a moment and confirmed that Shi Yue Ming had entered the East Region Academy. Since then, the two of them had never met, nor had they received any news from each other.
To be more accurate, Shi Yue Ming had been stuck at the 3rd level of the Body Refinement Realm, unable to break through. As such, Shi Yue Ming rarely came to find him.
Lin Cheng thought to himself, another snobbish woman!
He couldn't help but think of the Princess Anya in his previous life. That woman had once proposed to marry him as a princess in order for him to be able to stay in the Medicine King Valley. At that time, he would already be middle-aged, a full thirty years behind Princess Anya!
In the cultivation world, a difference of over thirty years was nothing, but in the mortal world, a difference of over thirty years was still very large. He could almost be the father of Princess Anya!
At that time, this was what Lin City was thinking about. Although he was slightly tempted, he didn't agree. However, Princess Anya was extremely respectful towards him. Under Zuo Mu's persuasion, he had settled down in Medicine Valley.
However, when he thought of the scene of Zuo Mu and Princess Anya bringing their men to besiege him, he understood everything and could clearly see everything!
Chen Hong laughed straightforwardly. "Benefactor, you don't have to be so courteous with me. Oh right, we still have more than two hours before we reach the relay station. Benefactor, please rest for a while."
Lin Cheng didn't hold back and nodded his head. He really did need to think about what to do next.
Actually, even if Chen Yongwen did not covet Lin City's Alchemy Finger Technique, Lin Cheng would not stay in Dongluo City for too long, especially after he broke through to the seventh level of the Rebirth Realm. Although his strength was not high, he had the power to protect himself, so Lin Cheng planned to set off to find the Azure Flame.
Especially when he thought of that possibility last time, could it be that someone coincidentally discovered the azure flame and took it away? He was very anxious, and now that he had some strength, he naturally wouldn't wait any longer.
The fact that Chen Yongwen coveted his Alchemy Finger Technique, as well as the fact that Tan Yulan had almost killed him, made Lin City even more determined to leave.
At the same time, his thirst for power grew even stronger.
"Shi Yue Ming …"
Lin City didn't expect things to be so coincidental. He wanted to go to the Central Region to find Azure Flame, and Chen Hong's cousin Zhao Qingyan happened to be at the East Region Academy. And his fiancee, Shi Yueming, was also there.
However, Lin Cheng did not have many thoughts in his mind, nor did he think about continuing the marriage engagement with Shi Yue Ming. His heart was incomparably firm, and he only had one goal in his life — — Become an expert and step into the Immortal Dao.
