What is your intention in bringing me to this place? Xu lingchong suppressed his hatred and asked in a deep voice.

Its nothing, the masked man chuckled.I pitied you, so I just helped you.

Help me? Xu lingchong couldnt bear to look at her and pointed at the pile of minced meat on the ground. She gritted her teeth and said, Youre also helping me?

Of course. Let me ask you a question. Do you prefer women or power? The masked man teased.

Xu lingchong was stunned for a moment before he slowly replied,Power.

To cultivators who were dedicated to pursuing strength, although women were good things, they were really nothing compared to power and strength, especially for extremely ambitious people like Xu lingchong.

For so many years, he had spared no effort in pursuing Shangguan LAN er. Even if there was a factor of l.u.s.t, the more essential purpose was to take advantage of the situation to rise to power. As long as he could successfully rise to power, he would have as many beautiful women as he wanted.

Since you want power, then why do you have to go through so much trouble to keep this thing? The masked man chuckled in disdain and said,Compared to the childs play of clinging to a woman, its far more practical and reliable to strengthen your own strength, dont you think?

Xu lingchong was left speechless by the question. After a long while, she finally opened her mouth and said,Even if you want to improve your strength, theres no need to be a eunuch. What the h.e.l.l is the relations.h.i.+p between the two?

Of course its related. The masked man snapped his fingers, and an ancient book appeared in front of Xu lingchong. The t.i.tle page was engraved with the dark gold words Jade chrysanthemum treasure book.

Xu lingchongs eyelids twitched. Under the other partys instructions, he picked up the ancient book and flipped it open. The first sentence that entered his eyes shocked him speechless.To practice this technique, you must first castrate yourself

This chrysanthemum Arts is an unparalleled skill, and after you master it, its power is no weaker than the five great skills of Sky Cla.s.s Island, perhaps even stronger. Its just that it has two prerequisites-first, you have to castrate yourself, and second, you have to have hatred that seeps deep into your bones. Youve already mastered both of these. The masked man explained.

This Xu lingchong wavered. Whether he dared to face it or not, he had to accept the fact that he was already a eunuch. As for hatred, his hatred for Lin Yi and Shangguan LAN er was definitely beyond the heavens.

With your talent and condition, as long as you focus on the chrysanthemum Arts, youll be able to reach a certain level in a few months. By then, youll be at least a few times stronger than you are now. Compared to people of the same level, youll be invincible. The masked man continued to tempt him.

Hearing this, Xu lingchong fell into deep thought. He could feel that these words were not empty words without any basis. However, up until now, he still knew nothing about this masked man in front of him.

What was the others ident.i.ty, what was his motive, and why did he want him to cultivate the chrysanthemum Arts? these were all question marks, and he didnt seem to have any intention of explaining.

After a long silence, Xu lingchong suddenly gritted his teeth and said,I dont have any other choice. Im taking this chrysanthemum Arts.

Very good, I didnt misjudge you. Youre indeed a smart guy. Then from today on, you can stay here and cultivate. When youve cultivated to the small success realm, Ill let you out. As for the matters outside and in your home, Ill take care of them for you. The masked man said in admiration. Then, with a sway of his body, he disappeared from Xu lingchongs line of sight as if he had never appeared.

Who is this mysterious guy? Xu lingchong looked at the empty secret room and couldnt help but wonder in her heart.

This secret chamber was completely impervious to wind in all directions, including the top and bottom of his head. There was no way out at all. Even with Xu lingchongs extraordinary eyesight, he could not find any gaps. He even felt a familiar protective array on the wall. The level of protection was so high that it made one dumbfounded.

And this masked man had actually disappeared right before his eyes in such a place. Such cultivation and strength, even with Xu lingchongs experience, could not help but be dumbfounded and incredulous.

Taking a deep breath, Xu lingchong immediately sat down cross-legged and began to study the chrysanthemum Arts. It didnt matter if he was willing or not, things had already developed to this point. If he didnt do as the masked man said and didnt cultivate the chrysanthemum Arts to the small success realm, he would probably never see the light of day again.

Xu lingchongs strange encounter, to Lin Yi who didnt know anything, was equivalent to helping him a lot.

After all, lingchong just went through a huge change, and now was the time when it was the easiest for her to go to the extreme. This was also the time when she posed the greatest threat to Lin Yi, and yet she was suddenly locked up by this masked man to practice the chrysanthemum Arts.

Putting the future aside, at least in the short term, Xu lingchong was no longer a threat to Lin Yi. Lin Yi could focus on his cultivation for a while! Lin Yi didnt go out of his way to find out where Xu lingchong was, either. He was happy to be free since there was no news.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day of the auction. According to their agreement, Lin Yi had come to the Hong Chamber of Commerce early to meet up with Hong Zhong.

However, this time, he appeared in his original appearance. Hong Zhong already knew his ident.i.ty anyway, and his relations.h.i.+p with Hong Zhong had been seen by everyone at the birthday banquet. Instead of using Lin ers ident.i.ty to hide it, it was better to appear openly in his original appearance.

This was actually a psychological game-after all, no matter how much Nan Tianba and the others suspected him, they didnt have enough evidence to confirm that he was the same person as Lin er. Facing Lin Yi himself, this uncertainty could very well become an opportunity. On the contrary, if it was Lin er, the other side could make a move without any mistake.

After greeting Hong Zhong, Lin Yi took out a bag of things and handed it to him,Shopkeeper Hong, these are some pills that I refined not long ago. Can I wrap them up and sell them to your Hong Chamber of Commerce?

Hong Zhongs eyes brightened. He took a look at the cloth bag and found that there were thirteen pills inside, all of which were Foundation-breaking pills. What surprised him even more was that each of these Foundation-breaking pills was s.h.i.+ning with a heavy red halo. They were all rare and top-grade goods!

A total of 13 Supreme-grade foundation-building golden cores! Young hero Lin, youre really generous! Even Hong Zhong, an old shopkeeper who was used to seeing the world, couldnt help but exclaim.
