Zhang nglong's sudden change of face left Zhan Xun utterly confused. Why did he flip so suddenly?
Even though his words earlier carried a bit of threat, it was rely a reminder to Zhang nglong not to act recklessly. Didn't he see this as a normal thing?
He overlooked one thing, though. If the opponent were a renowned alchemist across the continent, he would have so confidence in them. No matter what the other party wanted, as long as he could provide it, he would still treat them with respect without uttering any harsh words.
But this so-called Master Zhang before him indeed predicted the fire poison outbreak on Old Master's body last night. However, just achieving this might also be within reach for so Level Six alchemists or those particularly sensitive to flas.
Moreover, Zhang nglong was too young, and his life level was pitifully weak. An alchemist also requires strong backing as support. Otherwise, exhausting one's divine breath halfway through alchemy could be perilous.
Hence, he naturally labeled Zhang nglong. Even if this Master Zhang had a way to save Old Master, he probably relied on external resources, like so miraculous treasure obtained by chance or items left by others, which should not have much to do with him.
Therefore, in his mind, Zhang nglong's status was downgraded, and he did not face him with the attitude reserved for high-level alchemists. Such words were uttered instinctively.
However, Zhang nglong found those words very displeasing.
What do you an by this? Are you saying that if I can't heal him, you'll make pay? First, you doubt my ability, and then you dare to threaten ?
He indeed needed this Agate Dragon's essence, but it wasn't absolutely necessary. There are other such essences in the world, not just in their Zhan Family's hands.
Moreover, with his current ability, there are many ways to improve Gu Xiao's body, at most being slightly more troubleso and spending a bit more effort, but not quite like an ergency!
"You seem to have misunderstood the situation," Zhang nglong articulated each word, "It is *you* who are asking for help now, not *you* teaching how to act. You better figure out the current situation before you co to again!"
Zhang nglong then disregarded them and turned to leave.
"Wait!" Zhan Xun's temper flared up. In the Yanlan Empire, no one dared to disrespect the Zhan Family. Who does he think he is to dare lecture ?
Upon seeing Zhang nglong, most people instinctively removed him from the list of those untouchable. Since he refuses to help, then force him to; such is the fearless style of the Zhan Family!
"I don't care what ability you have to heal my father, but today, regardless, I must insist on you coming to our Zhan Family!" Zhan Xun's aura enveloped Zhang nglong, and his power was already very close to that of a Super Life Form!
In the original world, although Zhang nglong only had the life level of a Level Six perfect creature, tackling so Level Nine life forms was not difficult, but it was still quite a leap to a Super Life Form.
Moreover, here, due to the world's force, these beings were stronger than those in the human world. Without relying on the Super God Academy's power, he couldn't really deal with Zhan Xun.
Using the power of the Super God Academy requires a basic prerequisite for one's physical fitness. To use the power of a Super Life Form, Zhang nglong's physical fitness must be above that of a perfect creature, which Gu Xiao's current body cannot contain!
In the martial world, there's bound to be danger, frequent encounters with peril are inevitable for soone like Zhang nglong who often puts on airs. His reason for daring to confront the Zhan Family must be because he has a trump card.
Seeing Zhang nglong immobilized by Zhan Xun's aura, the Third Princess beca anxious.
"Uncle Zhan, we can talk things over. Please, don't resort to violence!"
"Third Princess, this matter has nothing to do with you," Zhan Xun had no intention of backing down, "If Master heals my father, I will personally apologize to him and present a heavy gift. Please step aside; I don't want you to get hurt!"
"Third Princess, step aside, it's okay," Zhang nglong, although restrained by the aura, secretly protected his body with his soul power. He couldn't defeat Zhan Xun, but such an aura is unlikely to harm him.
"I only intended for you to think things through, but it seems you wish to get rough with ," Zhang nglong laughed, "Before, I just wanted the Agate Dragon's essence, but now even adding 5 billion divine crystals isn't enough!"
"Hmph, 5 billion divine crystals, you indeed have the audacity to ask so much. Do you really take yourself as so great Master?"
Zhan Xun had no more ti to waste here. He was about to forcibly take Zhang nglong away, but then, another powerful aura erged next to Zhang nglong, hundreds of tis stronger than Zhan Xun's. It instantly shattered Zhan Xun's oppressive aura, leaving everyone from the Zhan Family breathless.
"A Divine Cultivation Realm expert!" Zhan Xun's expression changed. Such an effortless release could only co from soone at the Divine Cultivation Realm. Zhang nglong had soone like this as protection!
"No… Why is this aura so familiar? It seems like Qing…"
"Zhan Xun, you really have grown bold, daring to act tough on the Master!" Qing Kong slowly erged from behind Zhang nglong, "The person even I dare not touch, and you co here acting recklessly? Didn't your father teach you any better?"
"Qing… Uncle Qing…" Qing Kong is from the sa generation as the Zhan Family's Old Master, only second to him in personal strength back in the day. Now, he is the undisputed number one powerhouse in the Yanlan Empire!
He would actually humble himself to serve as Zhang nglong's bodyguard?
He suddenly recalled sothing Zhan Qing had told him; this so-called Master Zhang seemingly crafted a Saint Grade Divine Weapon for Qing Kong! However, this story sounded too fantastical; without seeing it personally or supporting evidence, the Zhan Family had passively ignored it.
But now, it seems this is not without basis. Otherwise, how to explain Qing Kong coming to protect Zhang nglong?
"Damn, it's a good thing I didn't act disrespectfully back then, or offending the Master would have made miss such a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity!" Seeing the scenario, Qing Kong even felt a twinge of gratitude inside.
"Uncle Qing, why are you…"
"No, I'm not your uncle. If the Master misunderstands, I don't want our relationship to sour," Qing Kong stated, "I know your father is in dire peril, but if you want to ask for help, co with respect and sincerity."
"If you insist on using force," Qing Kong sneered, "I don't mind teaching you young ones, who know no bounds, a lesson on your father's behalf!"
