"Too much, it's just too much, asking me to bring more money next time so he can rob me!" Zhou Liang was extremely furious, thinking this as he watched Lin Chen's departing figure with eyes full of icy anger, wishing he could tear Lin Chen to pieces. However, Lin Chen was not aware of any of this.
Watching Lin Chen leave, Zhou Liang immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and began to heal his injuries.
"Oh, isn't this Senior Brother Zhou Liang? I didn't expect that even with Senior Brother Zhou Liang's formidable cultivation, you'd suffer at the hands of that waste Lin Chen. But it seems you were specially taken care of, as you got to keep your clothes." Just as Zhou Liang was sitting cross-legged healing his wounds, a figure approached and spoke.
The newer was none other than Zhang Yuan, and behind him followed a group of his vassals.
Upon hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Zhou Liang's mouth twitched involuntarily.
"Zhou Yuan, did you e here specifically to laugh at me?" Zhou Liang, having just been robbed of his magic treasure by Lin Chen and stripped of his vestment robe, was in a foul mood. Seeing Zhang Yuan's arrival, he did not put on a good face and replied.
"Laugh at you? Haha, Senior Brother Zhou Liang misunderstands. How could I possibly e to laugh at Senior Brother Zhou Liang? Truthfully, we've had similar experiences, so I came to find Senior Brother Zhou Liang to cooperate in dealing with that bastard Lin Chen."
"That bastard is cunning and scheming; he's not someone we can handle alone." Zhang Yuan looked at Zhou Liang and spoke earnestly.
"Oh? Junior Brother Zhang Yuan also has a grudge against that bastard Lin Chen?" Zhou Liang, upon hearing Zhang Yuan's words, realized that perhaps the other party also had grievances with Lin Chen.
"Of course I have a grudge! That bastard not only robbed me of all my belongings, but he also stripped me naked. Do you think I wouldn't have a grudge against him?" Zhang Yuan gritted his teeth, speaking with extreme anger.
Ever since being robbed of his magic treasure by Lin Chen, he didn't even have a vestment robe to wear; the one he was wearing was borrowed from his subordinates. To him, it was an unparalleled humiliation.
Thus, Zhang Yuan's hatred for Lin Chen was imaginable, wishing he could tear Lin Chen to pieces. After being robbed, he was so poor that he came here to the Deacon Hall to take on tasks to earn money.
Earlier, he spotted Lin Chen's Divine Eagle and saw Zhou Liang going to cause trouble for Lin Chen, knowing that Zhou Liang was bound to suffer. How dare he provoke that cunning bastard Lin Chen alone?
Let it be known that Lin Chen is highly cunning. In a place like the Deacon Hall, full of treasures, confronting Lin Chen would only limit one's attack range.
After being robbed by Lin Chen last time, Zhang Yuan investigated Lin Chen to take revenge, discovering that not only he suffered losses at Lin Chen's hands, but even Shi An, Wang Shuo, and others from the Heaven Hall had suffered as well.
Moreover, those from the Heaven Hall who went to trouble Lin Chen ended up being detained, forcing the Heaven Hall to pay ransom for their release.
And regarding Lin Chen, although his cultivation is only the Nirvana Realm Sixth Layer, he is actually a Body Cultivator.
Therefore, in a place within the Deacon Hall with numerous exotic treasures, this guy can attack wantonly without using any spiritual power, making it his prime attack location.
Other people hesitate to use spiritual power for fear of damaging the surrounding exotic treasures, which often leads them to fall into Lin Chen's trap.
So now Zhang Yuan knows that to deal with Lin Chen, he absolutely must not confront him in a place overflowing with exotic treasures.
Upon hearing Zhang Yuan's words, Zhou Liang was momentarily stunned, thinking to himself how Lin Chen had offended so many people.
"Since you also hold a grudge against him, you must have a plan on how to deal with that bastard." Zhou Liang looked at Zhang Yuan and immediately asked.
Since Lin Chen had offended so many people, one more person against him would increase the chances of victory, and Zhou Liang was naturally willing.
"This isn't the place for discussion; Senior Brother Zhou Liang, first recuperate from your injuries, then let's move to a different place to devise a long-term plan. We must ensure this bastard can't recover from our blow." Zhang Yuan took out an elixir and handed it to Zhou Liang. Since he planned to cooperate with Zhou Liang, he didn't hesitate to give away this ordinary healing pill.
With Zhou Liang's addition, Zhang Yuan was more confident in dealing with Lin Chen, determined to make Lin Chen wish for neither life nor death.
Zhou Liang received the elixir handed to him by Zhang Yuan, consumed it, and began healing.
Soon, Zhou Liang's injuries had mostly healed. Although Lin Chen had injured him, there was no deep animosity between them, so Lin Chen had not attacked viciously, only inflicting superficial wounds.
"We'll discuss how to deal with that rascal later; for now, I want to see how that useless kid attempts to refine the Lapis Lazuli Stone. With that waste's cultivation, refining the Lapis Lazuli Stone is pure fantasy. Who does he think he is?" Zhou Liang said indignantly after recovering, then ran towards the direction of the Refinement Hall that Lin Chen had left for.
Upon hearing Zhou Liang's words, Zhang Yuan also became interested and headed toward the Refinement Hall.
He, too, wanted to see whether this cunning waste could refine the Lapis Lazuli Stone. If Lin Chen was all talk, there would be a good show to watch.
But based on his investigation of Lin Chen, despite Lin Chen's cunning, he never acted without assurance. Perhaps Lin Chen really had a way to refine the Lapis Lazuli Stone.
However, to know the truth, he had to witness it firsthand.
If Lin Chen truly couldn't refine the Lapis Lazuli Stone, then he would seize this opportunity to kick him while he's down.
...
"Brother, could you please inform them that I'm here for a task, to refine the Lapis Lazuli Stone." Outside an Artifact Refining Room at the Refinement Hall, Lin Chen approached and greeted.
At the entrance of the Artifact Refining Room, two guards stood with long spears.
Moreover, these two guards were at half-step to the Creation Realm, indicating that there was a significant figure refining artifacts inside the room.
The guard looked at Lin Chen, puzzled.
Because he knew that the Lapis Lazuli Stone meant for refining inside the Artifact Refining Room was no ordinary ore, yet this young man before him, merely at the Nirvana Realm Sixth Layer, dared to accept such a task. It seemed he wasn't here for refining but to stir trouble.
However, these matters were not for him to ment on or worry about.
