1281 Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 31

Chapter 1281

…

A tall and charming woman stood before Xin Ja. The young woman is Rong Beiyin, the one with the strange dark aura in her body which Xin Ja has already identified as a trace of a Shadow Being's aura.

He did not expect to see the woman in the place where Rou Chenchen is working.

"Hi, what are you doing here?" asked Xin Ja while looking at Rong Beiyin.

"Just visiting a friend…" she said while pointing at the tall woman beside her.

"Oh, that's nice… I'm also here to see someone…" Xin Ja said while nodding at the tall woman.

"Really? That's good,… I'll be going then, bye-bye!" Rong Beiyin waves her hand and left.

Xin Ja is showing a deep frown on his face while looking at the receding figure of the two women. He is feeling a bit nervous when that woman Rong Beiyin is near. He did not know why but he could sense trouble brewing whenever she is around.

"Why does it seem that the dark energy in her body is growing?" Xin Ja muttered to himself.

He looks at his handphone and then looks at the signal coming from the direction of Rong Beiyin.

What Xin Ja put on Rong Beiyin's body is a tracker. Just in case of anything that might happen, he would surely be able to at least find her.

Soon, Xin Ja once again waited at the entrance of the building.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure from afar. That figure looks simple as always with her glasses on and her gentle smile.

,m Beside her walks a few of her colleagues but in the eyes of Xin Ja, she is the only one present at this time.

It was been a few months since they last saw each other, and it was always in secret. Since he has already graduated, he is now somewhat confident about facing her family.

Rou Chenchen also saw Xin Ja and was actually surprised.

"Guys… excuse me…" she excused herself from her colleagues and quickly walks towards the figure of a handsome young man.

When the women saw this, they all frowned as they did not expect Rou Chenchen knew the handsome young man. Meanwhile, the men frowned as they never wanted Rou Chenchen to mingle with unknown men.

She might not be the most beautiful woman among their workmates, but she is still the treasure of the alchemist association.

And so the appearance of such a handsome young man is like a threat to them.

Among the male co-workers of Rou Chenchen, one of them is looking at Xin Ja maliciously.

Although Rou Chenchen does not look that beautiful, she is still the genius of the alchemy association. A man could only gain benefits when marrying her and no disadvantages.

This young man is one of the juniors who is working with Rou Chenchen. He has been her classmate in the Association's academy in the capital city.

His name is Zhuang Yunbin.

He is a 21-years-old alchemist that graduated along with Rou Chenchen and began working with her on many different projects now.

He has proven himself to be a good alchemist which is now at the 5th level.

As for Rou Chenchen, she is already an 8th-level master alchemist.

Seeing his crush talking to someone made Zhuang Yunbin angry and irritated.

"Miss Chenchen… Who is this guy?" Zhuang Yunbin asked with an awkward smile.

Rou Chenchen was a bit taken aback and felt a bit annoyed when she was asked like this. It looks like this guy is stepping out of his line. She did not want Xin Ja to mistake her for having a relationship with another man.

"Well, this is my boyfriend… Xin Ja… Little Ja, these are my workmates…" Rou Chenchen introduces as the people walked near them.

Upon hearing her words, the expression of the people around her turned awkward. They did not expect that handsome young man would be their genius workmate's boyfriend.

"I guess that's the reason why she would reject those that approach her… She already has a boyfriend…" someone whispered.

The others nodded as they now understood that what she was telling them was all true.

"Boyfriend? Haha… Miss Chenchen… I advise you not to be deceived by this guy. For all we know, he is just having a relationship with you for some dubious reasons…" Zhuang Yunbin sneered while looking at Xin Ja.

When Rou Chenchen heard his words, her expression turned angry and annoyed.

Why would Xin Ja do that? What can she do that he cannot do?

In fact, after all these years, all of her accomplishments should belong to him. But he decided to give it all to her.

Those pill formulas that he gave her were considered a treasure by the association. If they knew that Xin Ja did not even blink when giving it to her, how would they react to that?

And now, this stupid guy is acting like, Xin Ja wanted to woo her because of a hidden agenda?

For all she knew, this guy is the one with the hidden agenda.

If not for his work efficiency, she would not want to mingle with this guy.

"I advise Mister Zhuang to not overstep your boundaries…" Chenchen glared at the guy.

Xin Ja just showed a faint smile on his face as he looks at the guy.

"Do not get agitated… I'll handle this…" Xin Ja felt a bit like showing off in front of his girlfriend today.

"Hahaha… What can you do? Mere trash like you wants to handle me?" Zhuang Yunbin chuckled.

Suddenly, a cold muzzle of the gun is already pointed at Zhuang Yunbin's forehead.

"Bang! You're dead…" Xin Ja said making Zhuang Yunbin stagger a few steps back.

"Just kidding… Well, since you're an alchemist, why not have an alchemist contest… If you win, I will not see my girlfriend again… But if I win the same thing… do not show your ugly face in front of her…" Xin Ja coldly challenges.

This made the onlookers show excitement in their eyes as there would be a challenge that would happen.

In the alchemist challenge grounds

A few alchemists are now sitting in the audience seat while looking at the two contestants on the stage.

"That's Zhuang Yunbin, right? He is one of the geniuses in the association. Who is his unlucky opponent?"

"I think, I have not seen that guy before… Is he a part of the alchemy association?"

"This is not going to be interesting… we already know the result of this battle…"

The crowd muttered while looking at the two contestants on the stage.

At this time, someone from the inner disciple of the association raised her hand.

"Elder, that person's identity is unknown… We cannot let someone who is not an alchemist enter this sacred place… we should just chase out that person…" she commented snidely.

The elder who is judging this battle frowned and then looks at his records. He typed in Xin Ja's name and then showed a slight frown on his face.

"No… This battle is legitimate…" he said.

This has suddenly caused a small turmoil in the arena.

No one expected that the guy who is fighting against one of their experts is actually an alchemist.

"So you are confident because you're also an alchemist… But take note… this is not the countryside backwater where you came from… This is the central city of the kingdom, a place where only the best survives…" Yunbin proudly claimed.

"Hmm… Alright, I wonder how good the genius of the kingdom is then…" Xin Ja showed a faint smile.

With a slight sneer on his mouth, Yunbin crossed his hand and focused on the association elder who is the referee.

"Alright, this contest would be simple… I want you two to create any boosting alchemy product." The elder said and then took his seat.

When this happened, Zhuang Yunbin walked directly to the herb station and then began taking out some of the herbs.

He did not hesitate and began compounding the herbs and the juice came out. He began refining it along with their juice.

Soon he was able to refine them perfectly and then compound them into one pill.

The compounding became harder as the ingredients are slowly being compressed into a pill.

5 minutes later…

Zhuang Yanbin is already covered with sweat as he presented a single pill to the judge.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Although he used around 4 portions of the material to create this pill and ended up having a lot of dregs… he still ended up having successfully crafted the pill.

"This is the famous body physique enhancing pill… by Elder Tong…"

When he said this, everyone gasped in disbelief.

Even Rou Chenchen showed a slight reaction and interest in the pill. But when her eyes landed on the pill, she just squinted and frowned.

The pill might be a success, but it is still the lowest grade.

"This is good… you are truly a genius… This pill will enhance one's defense in battle. The effect would last for 10 minutes in a fight…" the elder explained.

Everyone gasped in excitement and Zhuang Yunbin raised his head proudly.

When he looks at Xin Ja, he sneered. This is because that man is actually using a mere potion to contest his pill.

"Hahaha… What a foolish guy…" Zhuang Yunbin smirked.
