At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

Lin Chen stood up, looked at Chen Yuanjie, and said calmly: "Where are you taking me?"

Chen Yuanjie said: "The sect leader has summoned you."

"What did you say?" Lin Chen's pupils shrank, and he didn't expect that even the master of the Alchemy Sect came to see him personally.

But soon, he was relieved.

Since Zhao Mengrou was Chen Yuanjie's disciple and the direct daughter of the Zhao family, and Zhao Mengrou was killed by him, how could the Zhao family spare him lightly?

People from the Zhao family are here, so naturally Chen Yuanjie will be here too!

"Take me there."

Although he was wondering why Chen Yuanjie was so anxious to call him over, Lin Chen did not refuse.

Chen Yuanjie glanced at him, said nothing, turned and walked forward.

A group of people followed him.

A moment later, Lin Chen followed Chen Yuanjie into a towering mountain peak.

Halfway up the mountain, there is a beautiful and elegant palace. There are guards patrolling outside the palace and it is heavily guarded.

"The sect leader is waiting for you inside, please go in quickly." Chen Yuanjie stopped outside the palace, said to Lin Chen, then turned and left.

"Thank you." Lin Chen raised his fist towards Chen Yuanjie.

"Hmph! Don't thank me!" Chen Yuanjie turned around and glanced at Lin Chen, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.

"Hey! Look, that man seems to be carrying a sword on his back!" At this time, someone noticed Lin Chen's back and suddenly shouted.

"It seems like there really is a sword. This sword is not simple. It has simple patterns on it. It doesn't look like an ordinary weapon!"

"Could it be that he is the legendary ancient weapon?"

Suddenly, everyone around him looked at the sword Lin Chen was carrying with greedy eyes.

Lin Chen listened to the sounds around him, raised the corners of his mouth, smiled playfully, and thought to himself: "It seems that these people are eyeing the sword on my back! Hehe, I just like this kind of boy who gives money!"

However, there was still a look of fear on his face, and he continued to lower his head and ran towards the palace gate in a hurry.

"Boy, stop!"

A cold and majestic voice came from the palace.

"Meet...meet the sect leader!" Lin Chen stopped, turned around, knelt in front of the palace, and shouted respectfully.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a white robe, with a beard, a Chinese character face, an aquiline nose, sharp eyes like daggers, and a domineering and majestic temperament, slowly walked out of the palace.

Next to him was Chen Yuanjie.

"Are you Lin Chen?"

The leader of the sect, Zhao Hongtai, looked at Lin Chen, then his face darkened, and he shouted coldly: "Why did you kill my apprentice? She is just a weak woman!"

His voice was like thunder, deafening.

This sect master's strength has reached the peak of the Extraordinary Ninth Level, not much worse than Chen Yuanjie, and even much stronger than the leader of the Dragon Elephant Sect, Hai Rong, whom Lin Chen once encountered.

"I...I just accidentally killed him, I didn't mean to kill him!"

Lin Chen was so frightened that his body trembled, his face turned pale, and he said in a panic.

"Oh, accidentally? Humph!"

Zhao Hongtai's face was so gloomy that he seemed to be dripping with water. He swayed and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Lin Chen and slapped Lin Chen on the head.

boom!

Lin Chen didn't react in time and was slapped to the ground. His head was buzzing and he couldn't get up for a while.

Zhao Hongtai looked angry and stepped on Lin Chen's shoulder. With a click, Lin Chen's shoulder blade shattered and he let out a miserable howl. He was sweating profusely in pain.

At this time, a middle-aged woman rushed to Zhao Hongtai and said anxiously: "Sect Master, please don't hurt his life!"

Zhao Hongtai's face froze. This middle-aged woman's name was Wang Lanying. She was his wife and his only beloved wife.

At this time, Wang Lanying's face was stained with tears, and she hugged Lin Chen's arm tightly, looking frightened.

Lin Chen looked at her with a stunned look on his face.

Wang Lanying has an ordinary appearance and sallow skin. Generally speaking, monks have a longer lifespan. Therefore, although she looks to be in her forties, her actual age is estimated to be only about thirty-seven or eighteen years old.

But at this time, she was crying so hard that her eyes were red and swollen.

Lin Chen was lying in the distance, looking at this scene, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

What's going on?

Aren't Zhao Yuhan and Zhao Menglan senior sisters? When did it become a mother-daughter relationship?

He originally thought that Zhao Yuhan was accepted as a direct disciple by Zhao Hongtai, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a bloody drama.

Hearing Wang Lanying cry, Zhao Hongtai turned pale.

He is not stupid, he knows that his concubine is not willing to be with him.

"Damn you bastard! I will definitely cut you into pieces!"

Zhao Hongtai was furious, kicked Wang Lanying away, glared at Lin Chen fiercely, and walked quickly towards the palace.

"Lin Chen, how are you? Get up quickly, I beg you, stop pretending!"

Zhao Yuhan ran over all the way and helped Lin Chen up, her eyes red and her tone pleading.

She felt extremely regretful and felt that it was all her fault.

I don't even know him, so why bother with him?

She knew very well that if Lin Chen fell into these two people, he would definitely die.

"Ahem!"

Lin Chen covered the wound and coughed violently. With a forced smile on his face, he said to Zhao Yuhan:

"Leave me alone and hide quickly! I don't want to drag you down!"

"I don't! I don't want it!" Zhao Yuhan shook her head firmly, "I want to accompany you!"

Lin Chen's face froze and he looked at her blankly.

He didn't expect that this girl Zhao Yuhan would be so infatuated. She was not afraid of being surrounded by so many people!

This moved Lin Chen's heart, and at the same time he felt that he owed the other party too much!

"Yuhan, I know, you like me. But I'm not worth what you do! Get out of here quickly, my death is not a pity, your life is more important!" Lin Chen gritted his teeth.

"No!"

Zhao Yuhan shook her head vigorously, tears streaming down her face.

At this time, the middle-aged man Zhao Hongtai finally came to the palace with six other people.

Lin Chen's heart twitched violently when he saw this, and he secretly cursed that he was in big trouble now!

These six people are all at the fifth level of Xiaoyao Realm, and two of them have even reached the seventh level of Xiaoyao Realm!

And he was only at the eighth level of foundation building, not even the Golden Core realm. How could he possibly be able to defeat this group of people?

The most important thing is that these six people have locked themselves with their spiritual thoughts. Once they fight, he will not be able to escape the other party's pursuit!

Zhao Hongtai looked at Lin Chen with a cold face and said in a cold voice: "Are you Lin Chen?"

"That's right!" Lin Chen nodded.

"Very good! Today, you are dead!"

Zhao Hongtai took one step forward, and the air exploded like thunder.

A terrifying aura erupted from his body, pressing against Lin Chen, as heavy as a giant mountain.

Bang!

Lin Chen's whole body hit the palace wall and was directly embedded in the wall. The wall cracked and he spat out a mouthful of blood mist. His body was slightly twisted. It was obvious that his ribs had been broken and he was dying.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Hongtai's face paled slightly.

Although he hated Lin Chen very much, he definitely didn't want Lin Chen to die like this. After all, Lin Chen's identity was not simple.

Zhao Yuhan's expression changed drastically and she hurriedly shouted: "Dad, you can't kill him, I beg you!"

She was also a little resentful towards Lin Chen. After all, Lin Chen had saved them, but at this moment, she was harmed like this by herself.

Lin Chen slowly slid down the wall, stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Zhao Yuhan, and said indifferently: "Miss Zhao, I saved you, but you repaid me with kindness. It's really disappointing!"

After saying that, he turned to look at Zhao Hongtai and others, grinned and said: "If you want to kill me, then go ahead! Anyway, I, Lin Chen, will lose my life sooner or later, and dying early may be a relief. !”

"You're talking nonsense!" Zhao Hongtai scolded.

"Hahaha!" Lin Chen looked up to the sky and laughed, "Am I talking nonsense? Do you think I am talking nonsense? Have you forgotten what you said in the first place?"

Zhao Hongtai frowned and stared at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen continued: "You said that you want me to always follow you and protect me. I have to follow you to become stronger. And I have helped your Zhao family a lot. You will treat me well and give me glory for the rest of my life." !I promise you!"

Zhao Hongtai's eyes flickered, and after a moment, he said: "I am a man of my word. Since you said you would protect our Zhao family, now I will let you replace Zhao Hongru as the head of the family!"

Lin Chen was stunned. He didn't expect that this guy would change his mind.

Zhao Hongtai snorted coldly and said, "I forgive you for Yu Han's sake! You are just an alchemist. Even if your strength is stronger than the average fourth and fifth level of Xiaoyao Realm, so what, do you still dare to fight me?"

"You fart! My master is an alchemy master! I tell you, if you dare to touch him, my master will definitely not let your Zhao family go!" Zhao Yuhan shouted angrily.

"Master of Alchemy?"

Zhao Hongtai laughed heartily and said with ridicule: "If he is a master of alchemy, then I will be a cultivator in the ninth level of the extraordinary realm!"

He sneered and said: "A kid from the Xiaoyao Realm is still a master of alchemy. Is your head filled with water?"

When Lin Chen heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Zhao Hongtai does not believe that he is an alchemy master, so he does not take Zhao Hongtai seriously.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t say that I am just a free-spirited ascetic!

"Boy, you are really lucky! However, I will not let you go so easily! If you dare to insult Yuhan, I will cut you into pieces today!"

Zhao Hongtai snorted coldly, stretched out his right palm, turned into a claw shadow, and grabbed Lin Chen.

Boom!

The space vibrated, and the spiritual power surged and roared, as if a wave was sweeping in.

In an instant, Zhao Hongtai's sharp claws had reached Lin Chen's throat. The speed was astonishingly fast, as if he was teleporting!

Lin Chen's pupils shrank and he felt a death crisis covering his whole body.

However, facing this blow, Lin Chen was still helpless.

His body is now severely damaged and he is unable to activate his spiritual defense at all.

He looked bitter and sighed: "Oh! I didn't expect that I would die under the attack of such ants in the end. It's so sad and regrettable!"

"Stop...stop!"

A scream came from Zhao Yuhan.

Zhao Yuhan was so frightened that she rushed to Lin Chen and blocked Lin Chen's neck.

Lin Chen staggered back a few steps and almost fell onto the bed.

Zhao Hongtai's sharp claw shadow stopped half a meter away from Zhao Yuhan's shoulder. The sharp claw tip was only half an inch away from the skin, but it stopped.

Zhao Yuhan felt weak all over and sat slumped in Lin Chen's arms, with tears in her eyes.

Just now, if she hadn't rushed over, Lin Chen would definitely have died under Zhao Hongtai's terrifying claws.

She was full of anger and hatred towards Zhao Hongtai.

Zhao Hongtai sneered: "Yuhan, get out of the way, otherwise, I will not only destroy him, but I will also kill you too!"

After saying that, he looked at Lin Chen and said with a ferocious smile: "Boy, aren't you a master of alchemy? If you are capable, why not refine another 'Pulse Shaping Pill'?"

Pulse Shaping Pill, a second-grade treasure pill!

It can greatly improve your training qualifications and break through bottlenecks!

For ordinary people, the price of Pulse Shaping Pill is simply astronomical.

However, for Lin Chen, the medicinal materials of the Pulse Shaping Pill are precious, but it does not mean that they cannot be prepared. His "Holy Demon Swallowing Heaven Creation Art" records the formulas and medicinal properties of many medicinal materials.

Just follow the recipe above to make it!

However, now he simply doesn't have the energy to find medicinal materials to prepare the Pulse Shaping Pill!

Hearing Zhao Hongtai's words, a look of ridicule appeared on his face.

"Do you think I can't refine the Pulse Shaping Pill?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps beside him.

Immediately afterwards, a woman in white walked in from outside the house.

Lin Chen looked out the door and saw who was coming. His face was startled and he said in surprise: "Luo Ling?"

Luo Ling saw Lin Chen with an excited look on her face.

"Lin Chen, where is my father? He is still alive, right?"

She ran to Lin Chen's side, grabbed Lin Chen's sleeve and asked.

Lin Chen shook his head, sighed, and said, "Your father has died."

At this point, he couldn't help but said: "It's all my fault. If it weren't for saving me, your father wouldn't have died."

"how so!"

Luo Ling was stunned, her face pale, her fists clenching.

Zhao Hongtai and Zhao Yuhan were a little confused as to who this girl was and why she suddenly appeared and called her Master Lin Chen.

"Sister Luo Ling, don't worry, Lin Chen has already healed Uncle Zhao's injury." Zhao Yuhan comforted her.

Luo Ling glanced at Zhao Hongtai, gritted his teeth and said, "I know. Uncle Zhao has woken up and is recovering very well!"

She did know that Lin Chen used acupuncture to help Zhao Guangde recover.

However, in their opinion, Zhao Guangde was able to wake up only because of the healing elixir Zhao Hongtai gave him just now. Otherwise, how could he have recovered so easily.

"What? Guangde has woken up?"

Zhao Hongtai looked ecstatic and looked at Lin Chen: "You mean, Guangde has woken up? His injury is healed?"

Zhao Yuhan and Zhao Hongtai were both pleasantly surprised.

"Yes, your father has woken up, but he still can't move, so he asked me to bring him to see you."

Lin Chen nodded and said: "As for Uncle Zhao's injury, you will understand it later. I have to rush back to Yuehai State immediately. I must go back as soon as possible. My friend is still waiting for me!"

"your friend?"

Zhao Yuhan looked suspicious and looked at Luo Ling: "Is it the woman named Ye Yiren?"

"Yeah." Luo Ling nodded.

Zhao Yuhan curled her lips and said: "I have already guessed that you have a relationship with her! However, no matter how beautiful she is, she is still my fiancée. You'd better stay away from her to avoid getting into trouble!"

Luo Ling's face froze.

Zhao Hongtai scolded with a sullen face: "Yuhan! What nonsense!"

He looked at Lin Chen and apologized: "I'm sorry. Yuhan is still young and doesn't understand many things."

"It's okay!" Lin Chen waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"you--"

Zhao Yuhan was about to retort when Lin Chen looked at her and said indifferently: "Shut up! If you keep talking, you won't recognize me as your master!"

Zhao Yuhan opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't dare to say anything more. She couldn't help but lower her head, her eyes were red, and she felt extremely aggrieved.

Lin Chen turned to look at Zhao Hongtai: "What do you want me to do before you let me go?"

Zhao Hongtai saw tears in the corners of Zhao Yuhan's eyes and felt heartbroken. He hurriedly coaxed: "Yuhan, don't cry. Although Lin Chen deserves to die, I will torture him slowly, so don't feel sad."

After saying that, he shouted coldly to Lin Chen: "Boy, since you have a relationship with Luo Ling, you should have heard about the grievances between our Zhao family and Ye Yiren, right?"

Lin Chen frowned, nodded, and said: "Of course I know that Ye Yiren killed my mother and caused me to disappear for five years. My father was beaten into a disability by the Ye family! When you talk about revenge, you mean this one?"

"That's right!"

Zhao Hongtai nodded, "The Ye family cannot escape the involvement in this matter, and you are a disciple of the Medical Immortal Sect. The grudges between our Zhao family and your sect should also be resolved! Your master Ye Yiren, then Let me deal with it, and leave the rest to you! "What do you think?"

"Haha! That's great! Grandpa Zhao, you are so wise!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yuhan cheered and flattered Zhao Hongtai, then stared at Lin Chen and sneered: "Lin, I advise you to listen to Grandpa Zhao and don't ask for trouble. Your strength is worse than Grandpa Zhao's. Far away, what can you do to avenge your master? I advise you to stop your wishful thinking!"

Luo Ling also looked at Lin Chen with some worry, fearing that Lin Chen would get hot and agree to Zhao Hongtai's conditions.

"Are you sure you want to fight alone?" Lin Chen asked with a smile on his face.

Zhao Hongtai snorted coldly: "Of course. If it was three months ago, maybe I would really be afraid of your master, but now, I have stepped into the ninth level of the extraordinary world, and even your master can't do anything to me. I want Killing her is easy!"

Lin Chen nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you. Come with me."

He spoke calmly, as if he was not worried about losing.

But Zhao Yuhan and Zhao Hongtai both thought he was crazy.

"Hmph! This idiot who doesn't care about life or death actually dares to compete with my father! He's really looking for death!"

Zhao Yuhan sarcastically said: "In that case, then come with me."

With that said, she pulled Zhao Yushan up, walked into the room, and closed the door at the same time.

After a while, Zhao Hongtai and Lin Chen entered the house, and Lin Chen noticed someone lying on the bed.

The man looked to be about sixty or seventy years old, with dark skin and a heaving chest. He was obviously still alive.

Seeing Lin Chen come in, Zhao Yushan had a look of surprise on her face and shouted: "Father!"

Zhao Hongtai's face was also full of excitement, and he quickly walked to the bed to check Zhao Guangde's injury.

After a moment, he said with a joyful expression: "Great, all the meridians in Guangde's body have been connected! Moreover, I feel that there seems to be a strange power in his body that is nourishing his damaged meridians. It probably won't take a few days." , Guangde will wake up!”

Listening to their words, Luo Ling still looked confused.
