Chapter 717: Chapter 720: Who is the Madman! (Third Update)
Looking at Liang Chen acting fierce in the Dinsional Universe, Lin Zhen laughed: “If you really want to kill , you don’t need to shout threats here. I’m at the XX hotel, you can choose to co alone or bring others.”
Liang Chen hung up the communication. About twenty minutes later, Lin Zhen saw him enter the hotel with his face covered, sneaking around.
After arriving at Lin Zhen’s room, Lin Zhen waved his hand at Liang Chen: “If you want to do sothing, do it quickly. If not, just sit down.”
Liang Chen hesitated for a long while but eventually didn’t dare to swing a punch at Lin Zhen. He sat down disheartenedly.
“Alright, I admit that I’m not a match for you right now, but Lin Zhen, you must do one thing, otherwise, even if I die, I will never forgive you.”
“Let’s hear it.”
“Help my mother restore her mory!”
Liang Chen’s eyes reddened as he spoke: “My mother suffered so much, her mory was erased by her master’s Soul Chasing Bell. I asked my father, but he said it’s none of my business. Lin Zhen, she was trying to save you when she ended up like this. If you can’t take responsibility for her, you’re not a real man.”
“I would do it even if you hadn’t said so. Do you know when your mother will be back?”
“Probably in three to five days.”
Liang Chen looked at Lin Zhen: “Although I think ten thousand of you are not worthy of my mother, I saw everything that happened on the Divine Punishnt Star. Lin Zhen, this is my mother’s choice, and I will respect her.”
“Oh? Don’t you care about your father’s feelings?” Lin Zhen asked, squinting his eyes.
Without any hesitation, Liang Chen said: “Relatively speaking, I care about my mother more.”
Afterwards, he looked at Lin Zhen again: “But don’t be too pleased. If my mother’s mory is restored, I will definitely persuade her to stay away from you. You’re really an unscrupulous person. I’m so poor now that I can’t even lift the lid of a pot. Although I obtained the Qi of Divine Transformation this ti, I don’t even have money to maintain my cultivation.”
Lin Zhen felt a bit embarrassed speaking of this, as he had indeed pit Liang Chen rather badly.
Lin Zhen awkwardly changed the topic: “Let’s not talk about that. Liang Chen, if I’m not mistaken, you’re here to give a heads up, right? Has your father planned to make a move against ?”
Liang Chen paused for a mont: “How did you guess it?”
Lin Zhen smiled: “How could I not guess it? Your father will not let go.”
Lin Zhen clearly guessed correctly, but Liang Chen was still a little unconvinced: “Your issue hasn’t been resolved yet. After all, you received high honors and have many supporters. Before that’s settled, my father can’t take action against you.”
“Hehe, Liang Chen, don’t try to fool . I’m not that naive. Yes, your father can’t arrest openly, but he can do it secretly. Isn’t he worried about running away? And not finding later?”
Hearing this, Liang Chen finally nodded slightly.
“Lin Zhen, although you’re a bit of a scoundrel, I have to say you’re quite smart. That’s right, I heard that my father has found a Longevity Expert from the outside to control you first. Once they suppress the opposing forces, they will announce your cris. That Longevity Expert is on his way now, and this place is probably being monitored. It would be difficult for you to return to the Alchemist Association now. The next ti I see you might be in Nanliang’s prison.”
“A Longevity Expert is coming to catch ?”
“That’s right. Have you ever heard of the Crazy person?”
“Is it soone with a ntal problem?”
Liang Chen rolled his eyes: “Lin Zhen, what nonsense are you talking about at this ti? Crazy is the na of a Longevity Warrior. He is very strong and has a very violent temperant.”
“How strong?” Lin Zhen was a bit interested.
“Hehe, truly amazing. This person is from Xi Liang and was once in the sa profession as you, an Alchemist. In order to strengthen his Spiritual Power, he took forbidden drugs.”
“Oh! He’s also an alchemist? Did he take Spiritual Strength pills or elixirs?”
Lin Zhen knew how difficult it was to get Spiritual Strength elixirs, and he had only managed to make Spiritual Strength potions for the Black Hole Beasts. If there were Spiritual Strength elixirs, that would be a fortune.
“It’s an elixir, but he isn’t exactly successful. His Spiritual Strength elixir is a half-finished product. He experinted on himself, and although his Spiritual Power improved, his personality drastically changed. Now, he has basically lost his humanity and has killed his family and friends. No one wants to be friends with him. It’s precisely because of this that my father sought him out to deal with you. If anything goes wrong, they can just put the bla on him.”
“He really is a madman. So, this person is only half-successful. It seems that his alchemist level was not low back then.”
“Not low at all. When he went mad a few hundred years ago, he was already a peak-tier, fifth-grade alchemist. After his personality changed, he was expelled from the Alchemist Association, and no one knows what level he is now.”
Upon saying this, Liang Chen stood up: “Alright, I have to go now. Lin Zhen, you’re on your own. Actually, I’m quite looking forward to seeing you in prison. But if you get caught, there might be no one to help my mother recover her mory. That’s why I have no choice but to co. I didn’t co for your sake, Lin Zhen, but I’ve done my duty. Goodbye!”
Suddenly, Lin Zhen spoke: “Liang Chen, if one day I decide to turn Nanliang upside down, whose side will you be on?”
Liang Chen pondered for a mont: “I will always stand on my mother’s side.”
After saying that, Liang Chen left the hotel in a hurry.
After Liang Chen left, Lin Zhen stood up and walked to the window.
Liang Zhihuan was really cunning. He said he was conducting research, but it might have been to put Lin Zhen at ease. anwhile, he sent a Longevity realm assassin after him.
“Bring it on! Since this warrior can’t be exposed, killing him shouldn’t be a problem! Liang Zhihuan, if you want to deal with , let’s see if you can really do it!”
From that mont, Lin Zhen had made up his mind. As long as Ning Qingxuan was around, his conflict with Liang Zhihuan would be irreconcilable. Since Liang Zhihuan’s actions annoyed him, they might as well tear off their masks. Given a little ti, he would turn Nanliang upside down!
He estimated his hiding place had been exposed, but if it had been, shouldn’t the hotel owner co to find him?
Thinking of it, Lin Zhen suddenly beca alert. With the royal family’s speed in finding people, it was impossible that they hadn’t noticed him staying in the hotel for so long. Moreover, the owner clearly knew he was staying here, so why hadn’t he co looking for him?
Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t the owner co over and tell him that he’s not welco and to leave?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhen imdiately pushed open the door and went downstairs, arriving at the inn’s front desk.
Upon seeing Lin Zhen, the boss was first stunned, and then asked with a hint of anxiety, “Sir, what can I do for you?”
“Don’t you recognize ?” Lin Zhen asked.
“Uh…no, your na is…?”
Lin Zhen used a Soul Lock, and the Star System Stage boss was instantly controlled.
“Has anyone been looking for ?”
“Respected master, soone has co. Soone just told not to disturb you. I guess the people trying to capture you should be arriving soon.”
“If soone cos, you just do this…”
“Yes, master, please be careful, the sky outside is full of surveillance systems. If you head towards the Endless Star Sea at this ti, you’ll definitely be discovered and pursued.”
“Understood.”
Lin Zhen didn’t plan to enter the Endless Star Sea again; he had to stay on the ground to wait for Ning Qingxuan’s return. Now the primary goal was to return to the Alchemist Guild first.
As the words had not yet faded, the sound of breaking sky echoed from a distance.
“They’re here!”
**********
Outside the inn’s entrance, a martial artist in ragged clothes appeared.
With a full face of stubble, bloodshot eyes, an ashen complexion, and a ruthless glare, he didn’t look like an ordinary person.
However, it was precisely this kind of person who made the world fear Longevity Warriors!
No one knew his real na, but for so many years, he had been known as the Madman.
His Longevity Temple was probably one of the least popular in the entire Da Liang region because this person barely had any humanity. He even had multiple incidents of killing worshippers, so naturally, no one would go to his temple to pay homage.
Later, he simply abandoned the temple and started a wandering life.
Today, he arrived to kill Lin Zhen, having received a large sum of money. The other party’s request was simple: capture Lin Zhen alive.
“Hehe! Since the Emperor of Nanliang demands it, I shall comply. However, I can’t guarantee he’ll be in one piece. If I only bring back a living head and replace the body with a pig’s, I wonder if the Emperor of Nanliang can still acknowledge it?”
At that ti, Liang Zhihuan clenched his teeth in secret. If it weren’t for the need to control Lin Zhen in advance, he wouldn’t bother dealing with this madman at all.
However, he was happy to see Lin Zhen suffer so torture.
The Madman appeared at the entrance of the inn and stepped inside.
He ca to the innkeeper and revealed his red-stained teeth with a grin, “Young man, tell if Lin Zhen is still here?”
The innkeeper trembled, “He is…he just was.”
“Good, take to see him, and don’t try anything funny.”
The terrified innkeeper led the Madman to Lin Zhen’s room, arriving at the door and lightly knocking.
“No need to knock!” The Madman glared, and a surge of Spiritual Power bombarded the door like a bomb, instantly shattering it!
Just as he blasted the door open, he saw Lin Zhen about to jump out the window.
“Hehe! Do you think you can still escape?”
The Madman took an arrow step forward, slashing his three-foot-long steel sword straight at Lin Zhen’s neck!
As the Longevity Warrior made his move, space locked in, giving Lin Zhen no chance to dodge!
But before he could land the killing blow, the innkeeper suddenly attacked from behind, viciously thrusting a long spear into the Madman’s back!
The Madman instantly realized the person behind him was the real Lin Zhen, but he had no idea how he managed to hide his presence.
However, this almost fatal strike didn’t kill him. The Madman roared and whipped around, not even looking as he stabbed his steel sword straight through the innkeeper’s heart!
“If I’m gonna die, we all die together!”
But Lin Zhen didn’t budge, raising his hand and thrusting a long sword into the Madman’s throat!
Blood gushed out of the Madman’s mouth, but this crazy warrior still hadn’t died, stabbing his sword back into Lin Zhen’s throat!
Lin Zhen’s expression didn’t change as he waved both hands simultaneously, plunging two short knives into the Madman’s temples!
After three consecutive fatal strikes, the Madman finally couldn’t resist any longer.
His eyes losing focus, the insane warrior leaned back, life finally departing from his body.
“You…are crazier than !”
