Chapter 1349: 1349

Hehe, Pill Fairy, why would you come here? said Long Chen awkwardly . It seemed that she had heard everything he had said to Wan Qing .

In other words, she had heard his bragging about how she even came to him for pointers . He had truly embarrassed himself this time .

However, what made his heart shake was the fact that the Pill Fairys cultivation base was absolutely terrifying . He hadnt sensed her existence at all .

It had to be known that within Pill Valley, his nerves were always stretched taut because he couldnt expose any holes . His spiritual perception was pushed to its peak constantly, but he still couldnt sense her .

It was like the Pill Fairy had merged with heaven and earth . Standing there, she was like an ordinary mortal . He wasnt even able to sense her spiritual fluctuations or Heavenly Dao energy .

Long San, dont be nervous . I just have a few things I want to discuss with you . I heard that you came here to the inner sect, so I also came . I wasnt trying to eavesdrop on you . The Pill Fairy smiled . The smile was like a lily blooming, making him feel like a spring breeze was blowing by .

Cough, thats fine . I still have to thank you for what you did last time, or Id probably have been expelled from Pill Valley . Theres a pavilion nearby, we can go and sit there . Long Chen pointed toward a distant pavilion .

The Pill Fairy nodded and walked beside him . She gently pulled back some stray hair that had blown over her forehead .

Her gentle movements contained a grace that moved Long Chen . Even though he had seen plenty of beauties, he still felt a unique aura from the Pill Fairy .

The pavilion was situated at the peak of a hill . From here, they could overlook the river below them . The scenery was not bad .

You dont need to be so courteous . Even if I didnt interfere, you would have been fine . Furthermore, you have such a powerful backer . No one would be able to expel you just for killing Qu Chunsheng . The Pill Fairy looked at the scenery, her eyes shining like stars in the night, yet also like gems in a deep sea .

No matter how you put it, I still have to thank you . Long Chen smiled .

I should be the one thanking you . When you killed Qu Chunsheng, you gave me an excuse to vent my dissatisfaction . Ive been feeling much better since that day, said the Pill Fairy .

Oh? Then if you want to thank me, you can just treat me to a meal, joked Long Chen .

The Pill Fairy smiled . She changed the subject . The methods you taught that girl were very marvelous . I didnt expect you to be such a master of the Pill Dao .

I cant accept such praise, said Long Chen modestly . But he knew she had more to say .

With your Spiritual Strength, talent, and comprehension skills, you can walk even further on the Pill Dao . In fact, your accomplishments wouldnt be any lower than my own . Transforming into a flame cultivator is digging your own grave . As expected, the Pill Fairy only got to her point now .

Long Chen sighed, A person cant always do what they want . Im just a country bumpkin with no background . Even you, the Pill Fairy who is worshipped by countless disciples, a god-like existence, also have a similar helpless expression . Some things are just out of our control .

Long Chen had figured out the rough situation in Pill Valley . And through their few encounters, he also had a basic understanding of this Pill Fairy, which was why he said what he said .

A glimmer of sadness appeared in her beautiful eyes . She sighed, Long San, theyre using you . Can you not tell?

I can tell . But at least I have some value this way . Thats a good thing . Now, I get whatever I want . Whats so bad about it? Long Chen acted like he didnt understand .

The Pill Fairy turned to stare into his eyes . Her eyes were completely calm, like the surface of a lake that could reflect anything .

Uh, Pill Fairy, you shouldnt stare at me like this, or Ill be embarrassed .

Long San, youre a curious person . I cant see through you, but I know youre smart . Theyre using you now, but once youre no longer valuable to them, theyll toss you aside without a second thought . I wont ask you to join the Divine Shield Alliance, but I hope you can join the neutral faction and not help either side, said the Pill Fairy .

Its not possible . Protector Zhuo supported me, and I swore I would repay him . Before repaying him, I cant leave him . In truth, when Long Chen said he had to repay him, he was thinking of something completely different . But the Pill Fairy didnt know this .

She was silent for a moment before bitterly smiling . It seems Im not good at persuading people . My first attempt is a failure .

I know youre being kind, and Ill remember this . Ah, speaking of which, can I ask you a few things?

Asking is harmless .

Then I want to ask, why is your conservative faction so stubborn? Pill Valley clearly has the ability to grow even stronger, so why do they still cower? asked Long Chen .

You really know how to ask questions . Your first one is the most difficult one and the reason why Pill Valley is split into two factions . In truth, its not that were conservative, but that certain people have forgotten the meaning behind Pill Valleys existence .

Pill Valley is situated outside the rest of the world . It has its own mission . But some people are selfish and greedy and want to stretch their hands into this chaotic world . Thats not the meaning behind Pill Valleys existence, and doing so would be very dangerous . It would influence the entire balance of the Martial Heaven Continent, and Pill Valley might even be drawn into a cataclysm because of it . But sometimes, people simply refuse to be reasonable and see the truth . So this world is fraught with struggle .

What could bring Pill Valley danger? Isnt Pill Valley the strongest power in the Martial Heaven Continent? asked Long Chen .

Sorry, this relates to Pill Valleys secrets, so forgive me for not being able to answer, said the Pill Fairy .

Long Chens heart pounded . It seemed he still knew too little about the Martial Heaven Continent .

Something that could even threaten Pill Valley? What power was that? Or was it the danger zones?

Many thanks . Although our standpoints arent the same, I sincerely wish that we can be friends, said Long Chen .

Who cared about helping Zhuo Tianxiang? He had only come to get the Nirvana Scripture . He had no intention of being enemies with the Pill Fairy, who was a kind and beautiful person .

To be friends with Master Long San is the fortune of three lifetimes . The Pill Fairy found it funny to call him Master Long San .

Cough, that name is just to intimidate some small fries, said Long Chen awkwardly .

Its getting late . We should go back to the Divine Pill Hall together, said the Pill Fairy .

Long Chen was startled . He immediately understood what she was intending . Being able to walk with a fairy is my blessing .

Long Chen knew that the Pill Fairy was doing this to give a warning to Zhuo Tianxiang and the others . By walking with him, it would make Zhuo Tianxiang and the others nervous .

It was also a kind of protection for him . It was telling Zhuo Tianxiang that if they did something to Long Chen, he would have a place on her side .

If it was someone else doing this, Long Chen would definitely think they were trying to sow dissension . But he knew the Pill Fairy wouldnt do such a thing .

He walked alongside her, talking and laughing on the way . Long Chens mouth had plenty of tricks that could make a person laugh . Even the graceful and refined Pill Fairy couldnt stop laughing .

Long San!

Long Chen and the Pill Fairy had only just arrived in the Divine Pill Hall and were about to part ways when a voice rang out .

It was Jiang Zijun . Flames were about to spit out of his eyes as he glared at Long Chen .

Long Chen shook his head, knowing that this fellows jealous nature was too strong . Long Chen hadnt even thought of such things with the Pill Fairy . He already had too many beauties, and he knew when to be satisfied .

Long Chen didnt even look at him and returned to his residence . He saw Elder Zhu was already waiting for him .

It was unknown if he was worried about Long Chen switching sides or not, but he directly requested Long Chen to go into seclusion and continue cultivating flame magical arts . He was actually in a greater rush than Long Chen to strengthen his body .

This delighted Long Chen, as it was a good thing . The Earth Flame essence he was absorbing to strengthen his body actually didnt affect his body at all . The essence was all absorbed by Huo Long, while he gradually released the power of his original physical body . It just looked like he was getting stronger from the Earth Flame essence .

Elder Zhu, this time, I want you to drown me with Earth Flame essence . I want to keep getting stronger so I can kill that bastard Jiang Zijun . Ill make the name Master Long San shake Pill Valley!

Long Chen directly lay in lava and let out a heaven-shaking roar . This lava was the Earth Flame essence, and was just what Huo Long needed .

Four holes opened on the sides of the lava pool, and Earth Flame essence gushed out, truly drowning Long Chen .

Flame runes revolved around Long Chen as he crazily absorbed the Earth Flame essence . Huo Long almost cried out in excitement .

Previously, Long Chen had been refusing to let it absorb it too quickly . But now Long Chen let it devour as much as possible, the more the better .

After three whole days, Long Chen had absorbed an oceans worth of Earth Flame essence, completely sucking up every bit of Zhuo Tianxiangs stock .

What delighted Elder Zhu was that when Long Chen was enveloped by his flame energy, a punch from the latter could make even the former cough up blood .

Long Chens monstrous physical body delighted Zhuo Tianxiang and the others . Long Chen ended his seclusion, and the first thing he did was go to the inner sect to see that girl Wan Qing .

However, just as he walked out, he suddenly saw a group of people bringing a lanky old man into Zhuo Tianxiangs room . An icy light flashed in Long Chens eyes .
