Even until his death, Chen Yongwen's eyes were still full of unwillingness and disbelief!

He could not believe that a dignified Pulse Wheel Realm master like himself would die in the hands of a small martial artist like Lin Cheng!

He found it even more unbelievable. The sneak attack that he had originally been confident of, not only did it not catch Lin City, it actually caused him to die under Lin City's blade!

He couldn't accept it!

I can't believe it!

The complicated emotions on Chen Yongwen's face gradually faded, but the unwillingness in his eyes was so obvious!

"Hu!"

Seeing that Chen Yongwen had died, Lin Cheng let out a long breath of relief. After which, his body swayed as he felt his vision blurring, and he almost fell to the ground.

Lin Cheng quickly stabbed his saber into the ground, his hand gripping the hilt tightly. Only then did he manage to stabilize his body.

At this moment, an extremely weak feeling hit Lin Cheng. His legs went soft, and he fell to the ground while leaning against the wall.

In the battle with Chen Yongwen just now, he had already used all of his strength and consumed an entire bottle of Returning Energy Pills. This was already half of all his restoration pills. The elemental energy within his body had been completely depleted. He did not have the slightest bit of strength left, and it was even difficult for him to move his hands!

It was as if he had collapsed!

However, compared to the fatigue on his body, his heart was filled with ecstasy!

The Arterial Circulation Realm!

This was a master of the Arterial Circulation Realm!

Chen Yongwen, such a dignified Pulse Wheel Realm master, was actually killed by him in a fierce battle!

Whether it was in his previous life or this life, this was the first time!

Even though Lin Cheng could vaguely sense that Chen Yongwen, this Pulse Rotation Stage expert, had yet to reach the peak of the Pulse Rotation Stage. He should be at the first or second level of the Pulse Rotation Stage.

Even though this was the first time he had injured Chen Yongwen from behind while launching a sneak attack, it had affected his strength and speed.

However, this did not affect the wild joy in Lin Cheng's heart!

No matter how many reasons there were, it could not change the fact that in the fierce battle of life and death, he did not back down in the slightest, directly killing Chen Yongwen, this master of the Arterial Circulation Realm!

"Haha …"

Lin Cheng opened his mouth and laughed in a low voice. His laugh was very hearty. If it wasn't for the fact that it was still night and there were still people living in the surrounding rooms, he would have really laughed out loud!

Defeating and killing Chen Yongwen, this gave Lin Cheng a lot of confidence. To him, this was an extraordinary thing!

This made Lin Cheng realize that the path he had chosen was the right one!

As long as he trained diligently, he could also become an expert. His fate would be completely in his own hands, and he would not be sold out.

Furthermore, it was not when he was being forced to concoct pills and had no power to resist!

Even though Lin Cheng was exhausted, his eyes were shining brightly!

Infinite confidence rose in his heart, and the faith in his heart became even more resolute!

"I will definitely continue on the path that I have chosen!" Lin Cheng resolutely said in his heart, "I want to step into the cultivation world and become an immortal path expert. I will definitely!"

After the ecstasy, Lin City gradually calmed down and started to ponder over the current situation.

"I absolutely can't sit here right now. My elemental energy has been completely used up. With such exhaustion, this is the best time to cultivate!" "Now that I'm training, the recovered Yuan Power will be even purer!"

He glanced at Chen Yongwen's corpse, and his eyes fell back on the bed. This reminded him of the poisonous substance that came out when Chen Yongwen came in, with a wave of his hand.

"So it's a drug with paralysis properties!"

Just a whiff from Lin Cheng and he immediately understood the characteristics of this poison. It was obvious that Chen Yongwen wanted to bewitch him and then kill him. Or he could even capture him and force him to hand over his Alchemy Finger Technique.

Fortunately, the poison was paralyzed, and it was mainly concentrated on the bed area. Lin City was standing at the door with it open, and he was almost unaffected by it.

"We can't waste time! We have to start cultivating immediately!"

"Also, it's best not to take any supporting pills. If you just rely on pills to forcefully increase your strength, it'll only cause your foundation to be unstable. Only those who have trained hard and obtained the most reliable are able to do so! "

"Ugh!"

Lin Cheng took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, raised his long blade and closed the door before locking it shut. These actions had already exhausted all the strength he had accumulated during his short rest.

Currently, Lin City no longer had any extra power to go outside and rearrange the traps.

"No worries!" I think other than Chen Yongwen, no one else will be able to break in. " Lin Cheng placed his saber by his side and reached out to grab it.

Actually, he wasn't too sure either. If Chen Yongwen came chasing, would Tan Yulan send people after him too?

On second thought, Lin City felt that even if Tan Yulan sent someone over, it would still be impossible for them to arrive so quickly, because after he left, Chen Yongwen would be the first one to know. If Tan Yulan wanted to know, it would probably take some time.

He deduced that if Tan Yulan's men were to come, they would have to wait until the next day at least!

With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Lin Cheng no longer hesitated and immediately started to cultivate. He slowly activated the Sky Spill Profound Technique and gradually immersed himself in the cultivation state.

"Clang clang!"

A crisp sound of metal hitting metal could be heard.

Lin Cheng suddenly opened his eyes with a trace of vigilance in them. Very soon, he realized that it was the sound of a bell ringing.

The direction of the sound should be coming from the front yard. He guessed that it should be the bell hanging from the horses tied to the front yard. He immediately stood up and looked out of the window.

He immediately pulled out the mat under his bed and picked up Chen Yongwen's body along with the scattered blood and flesh. After confirming that there was no one outside, he quickly carried Chen Yongwen's body into the wilderness and hastily cleaned up the mess.

Soon after, he returned to the inn and cleaned up the traces of blood in the room. Fortunately, the inn was extremely simple and crude, and a layer of dirt was enough to cover the bloodstains on the ground.

If it was a marble floor, or an inn with a high grade wooden floor, it would be more troublesome to clean up the bloodstains.

After finishing all of this, the sky was already bright.

Carrying a long saber on his back, Lin Cheng walked out of his room.

At this moment, he swept away the fatigue from his battle with Chen Yongwen. His cultivation in the middle of the night had made him spirited once again. The elemental energy within his body had completely recovered, and it was faintly purer than before!

On the other hand, the place on his shoulder that had been hit by Chen Yongwen's palm still had a faint pain. Lin Cheng knew that this was a bone injury, and it would take some time for him to recover.

Thinking of this, he felt even more glad. If he hadn't practiced the first move of the 'Scorching Sun Saber' on Chen Hong's carriage and hadn't slacked off, he would have finally grasped the first boning move after countless practice!

Otherwise, the one who would have turned into a corpse today would not have been Chen Yongwen, but Lin City instead!

Lin Cheng walked out of his room, his mind still thinking about his fight with Chen Yongwen last night.

He knew that he would be able to survive and kill Chen Yongwen. The fierce and powerful saber technique of "Scorching Sun Saber" and the Seven Stars Cloud-Stepping Steps were both of the most important uses.

If the < Sun Force Blade > wasn't too tyrannical, he wouldn't have cut off Chen Yongwen's hand so easily!

However, there was still a huge gap in strength between the two of them!

The sneak attack from behind had cut off Chen Yongwen's hand, but it only lowered his strength by a little, which made the gap between the two of them not that big!

What really allowed him to defeat Chen Yongwen, was still that indomitable spirit and determination!

Lin Cheng believed that if he had been a little bit weak last night, even if he had been slightly afraid, he would have been the one to die. That palm strike on his shoulder by Chen Yongwen was the best proof of that.

That palm instantly made Lin Cheng's entire arm hurt and he lost consciousness. It took him a while to recover!

One could imagine how strong Chen Yongwen actually was!

But Lin Cheng did not show any signs of retreat, he had trained his character for dozens of years and it was as hard as iron, even when facing an expert like Chen Yongwen he did not show the slightest fear, even provoking the fierceness to fight for his life!

Combined with the fierce < Sun Force Blade > and the Seven Stars Cloud-Stepping Steps, he seized the opportunity in an extremely short amount of time, forcing Chen Yongwen to passively defend, unable to attack again!

Of course, there was also one more point that played a crucial role in Lin City's fierce battle with Chen Yongwen.

That whole bottle of Restoration Pills!

If it weren't for that whole bottle of Energy Recovery Pills, Lin Cheng wouldn't have the power to make that final Eviscerate. Just the consumption of Chen Yongwen's energy alone would have been enough to exhaust him to death!

"Pills, battle skills, footwork, and unparalleled courage. How could Chen Yongwen not die?!"

Lin Cheng was in high spirits when he thought of this!

Suddenly, Lin Cheng's footsteps stopped and he thought of Chen Hong!

Yesterday, it was Chen Hong who drove him here. Apart from her, no one else knew where he had settled in. How did Chen Yongwen get here?

Lin Cheng frowned. Could it be that Chen Hong betrayed him?

This thought had just flashed through his mind when Lin Cheng shook his head and laughed. That shouldn't be possible. Yesterday, he had personally watched Chen Hong drive away, so he probably wouldn't come back.

Moreover, Chen Hong didn't know which room he lived in, but Chen Yongwen did.

"It seems like, it should be Chen Yongwen secretly following us from behind. He still has some scruples in Dongluo City, but at this small relay station, he can act recklessly without restraint!"

Lin Chen thought, "But he never thought that this was the place where he would die!"

Soon, Lin City thought about it again. Since Chen Hong knew that he had left Dongluo City, then there must be someone else who would know. Tan Yulan would get wind of it sooner or later, wouldn't she send someone to look for trouble with Chen Hong?

"Tan Yulan …"

Lin Cheng's eyes flashed with a cold light, "If anything really happens to Sister Chen, I will make sure you die with me!"
