C19 A Debt of Gratitude

Lin Cheng was secretly on guard. He held the handle of the long blade in his hand and stared at the female Cultivating Warrior on the carriage.

Very quickly, the carriage arrived in front of him. Lin Cheng took a few steps back without leaving a trace. He saw the female Cultivating Warrior driving the carriage with a joyful expression. She said, "Benefactor, I have finally caught up to you. Your speed is really not slow!"

Lin Cheng asked curiously, "Sister, do the two of us know each other?"

"Benefactor may not know me, but I know benefactor."

The female Cultivating Warrior looked at Lin Cheng's vigilant and doubtful eyes and could not help but ask, "Benefactor, do you still remember that ten days ago, a Cultivating Warrior that was covered in blood returned from outside the city. He went to the Unification Hall to seek help, but was saved by the Three-treasure Pill you refined?"

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "Of course I remember!"

The reason why his Three-treasure Pill could become popular in the Dongluo City was because of a lucky coincidence. He had hung the life of a dying Cultivating Warrior in front of everyone. After consuming three of them in a row, the Cultivating Warrior had come back to life.

Could it be that this female Cultivating Warrior had something to do with that dying Cultivating Warrior?

Seemingly noticing the doubt in Lin Cheng's heart, the female Cultivating Warrior cupped her fists and said, "Benefactor, the Cultivating Warrior that you saved is my Hubby!"

Lin Cheng suddenly understood. "So you are that Cultivating Warrior's wife!"

The female Cultivating Warrior nodded and said, "It is all thanks to the Three-treasure Pill that benefactor refined that I, Hubby, was able to revive from the dead and save my life. Hubby and I will remember your great kindness in our hearts!"

Lin Cheng waved his hand and said, "This is nothing. Furthermore, strictly speaking, your life wasn't saved by me either. If it wasn't for his tenacity to persist until the Unification Hall... I can't save him even if I wanted to. Besides, I didn't know about it when I was concocting pills. The one who saved you, Hubby, was the manager of Unification Hall."

"We will also remember the kindness of the manager of Unification Hall. However, if it wasn't for the Three-treasure Pill concocted by our benefactor, I, Hubby, would have lost my life. Hubby and I have always wanted to thank our benefactor, but Master Chen from the Unification Hall said that our benefactor doesn't like to see outsiders. We are unable to pay our respects to benefactor, so I can only wait for you in the Unification Hall every day. "

The female Cultivating Warrior said gratefully," Today, I saw benefactor coming out of the city. It seems like he is leaving the city. So, I drove here. "

When Lin Cheng heard the female Cultivating Warrior's words, he realized that Chen Yongwen had already started preparing to control him. Fortunately, he had left in time, otherwise, Chen Yongwen would have killed him.

"I'll accept your gratitude, but I'm in a hurry to get back to the city. Please leave." Lin Cheng looked at the sky and saw that it was getting late. If he delayed any longer, it would be very difficult to get to the station before dark, so he planned to rush back immediately.

"Benefactor, where are you going? Let me send you there." The female Cultivating Warrior said.

"There's no need. You should go home and take care of Hubby. I can travel by myself." Lin Cheng shook his head and refused.

The female Cultivating Warrior said, "I, Hubby, can move freely. I don't need anyone to take care of me. Benefactor, please give me a chance to repay you."

Seeing that the female Cultivating Warrior had said this, Lin Cheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed. "Alright, I'll trouble you to send me to the nearest station."

The female Cultivating Warrior nodded happily. "No problem. Hubby and I often go out to hunt and do missions together. I am very familiar with the outside of the city. Benefactor, please get on the car. You will be able to reach the nearest station within four hours."

As she spoke, she pulled open the curtain of the carriage and invited Lin Cheng to get on the carriage.

"In that case, thank you very much."

Lin Cheng did not continue to be polite and directly got into the carriage.

The female Cultivating Warrior sat in front and with a wave of the whip in her hand, the carriage quickly ran.

Through their conversation, Lin Cheng found out the name of the female Cultivating Warrior. She was called Chen Hong. They were husband and wife, and they were both Adventurer from the Dongluo City. They relied on hunting outside the city, and went to various guilds to accept missions to make a living.

Lin Cheng nodded slightly. No wonder Chen Hong looked so capable and experienced. She was also very familiar with driving. It turned out that she was also an Adventurer.

However, Chen Hong's Cultivation Level was not very high. It was only at the sixth level of the Body-refining Stage. With her age of about 30 years old, it would be very difficult for her to break through to the Chakra Stage.

However, this was not absolute. If she could obtain the Heaven-earth Treasure or have some other fortuitous encounter, Chen Hong's strength would naturally have room for further improvement.

"Benefactor, I heard that you have left the Unification Hall?" Chen Hong was a very talkative person. She was magnanimous and did not have the shyness of a young girl. She took the initiative to ask.

"I plan to go out and train for a while. It will be very difficult for me to improve my strength if I stay in the Dongluo City all the time." Lin Cheng said. He didn't mention the conflicts between him and Chen Yongwen of Unification Hall. All he needed to do was to keep these things in his heart.

Chen Hong asked, "Where do you plan to go to gain experience?"

Lin Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go to Yongan City."

"Yongan City?"

Chen Hong thought for a while and said in surprise, "Is it the Yongan City in the middle of Dongzhou? That place doesn't belong to Stellar Country anymore, right? How could benefactor think of going so far? Isn't the northeastern Daluo Mountain Range more suitable for tough-training?"

At this point, before Lin Cheng could reply, she suddenly thought of something. She said, "That's right. The Demonic Beast has appeared in the outer perimeter of the Daluo Mountain Range. It has become extremely dangerous there. Benefactor wants to train, so naturally, you can't choose such a dangerous place."

Lin Cheng said with a smile, "I have other things to do when I go to Yongan City."

"Benefactor, are you planning to join Dongzhou College?" Chen Hong asked.

"Dongzhou College?"

Lin Cheng thought for a moment and asked, "Are you talking about the Dongzhou College with the title of Dongzhou Pearl?"

Chen Hong nodded and said, "Yes, I have a cousin in Dongzhou College. She wrote a letter a while ago that Dongzhou College started recruiting this month. Benefactor's skill in alchemy is so superb, it will definitely be easy for him to join Dongzhou College."

Lin Cheng smiled and said, "Let's talk about it later."

If Chen Hong had not mentioned it, he would not have remembered that there was another Dongzhou College in the middle of the Dongzhou.

In his previous life, in order to find a way to change his physique and embark on the path of cultivation, he had also participated in the college's recruitment test, but was rejected the moment he registered.

Furthermore, because of his naturally dead meridians useless physique, he was even humiliated by the teacher in charge of the recruitment at that time. At the same time, the other youths who participated in the test also mocked him.

Now that he thought about it, it really felt like a lifetime had passed.

In fact, the reason Lin Cheng went to the central region of Dongzhou was not because he wanted to join the Dongzhou College. The reason he wanted to go to the Yongan City was because it was closer to the Boundless Forest.

The Boundless Forest was Lin Cheng's target.

Because, in the Boundless Forest, there was one thing that Lin Cheng dreamt of - Blue Fire!

It was precisely because of that time when he went to the Dongzhou College to participate in the recruitment test that he was humiliated. Lin Cheng left angrily. He entered the Boundless Forest to search for the Heaven-earth Treasure, hoping to change his constitution. However, he had made a mistake and entered a hopeless situation. He had almost died and was still alive.

By chance, not only did Lin Cheng not die, he even found the Blue Fire there.

A few years later, he had made sufficient preparations and returned once again. After going through countless hardships, he finally succeeded in obtaining a strand of the Blue Fire, and his skill in alchemy improved by leaps and bounds.

Seeing Lin Cheng remain silent, Chen Hong thought that he did not have the confidence to pass the Dongzhou College's test. So, she said, "Benefactor, don't worry. With Benefactor's skill in alchemy... By the way, the Dongzhou College would certainly welcome you to join them. If benefactor is there, you can look for my cousin. Her name is Zhao Qingyan, tell her my name. She'll know. "

Lin Cheng smiled and nodded. He said, "No problem, thank you very much."

At this point, Lin Cheng suddenly thought of something.

If he remembered correctly, in Lin Yu's memory, the fiancée of Lin Yu, Shi Yueming, seemed to be in Dongzhou College.

That's right!

He carefully thought about it and confirmed that Shi Yueming had joined Dongzhou College. Since then, the two of them had never met or communicated with each other.

To be precise, from the time they had been stuck at the third level of the Body-refining Stage and had been unable to break through for a long time, Shi Yueming rarely came to find him.

Lin Cheng thought in his heart, another snobbish woman!

He couldn't help but think of Princess Ann Ya in his previous life. That woman had wanted him to stay in Medicine King Valley. One should know that... At that time, he was already middle-aged. He was thirty years younger than Princess Ann Ya!

In the Cultivation Realm, a gap of thirty years was nothing. However, in the Mortal Realm, a gap of thirty years was still very big. He could almost be Princess Ann Ya's father!

Lin Cheng had considered this at that time. Although he was a little tempted, he did not agree. However, Princess Ann Ya was very respectful to him. Under Zuo Mu's persuasion, he stayed in Medicine King Valley.

But when he thought about the scene of Zuo Mu and Princess Ann Ya surrounding and attacking him, he understood everything and saw everything clearly.

Chen Hong smiled readily and said, "Benefactor, there is no need to be polite with me. Oh right, we still need more than two hours to reach the station. Benefactor, please rest for a while."

Lin Cheng did not stand on ceremony and nodded slightly. He really needed to think about what to do next.

Actually, even if Chen Yongwen didn't covet Lin Cheng's alchemy finger technique, Lin Cheng wouldn't stay in Dongluo City for too long, especially after he broke through to the seventh level of the Body-refining Stage. Although his strength wasn't high, he had the ability to protect himself. He was planning to go and find the Blue Fire.

Especially when he thought of that possibility last time. Could it be that someone had found the Blue Fire by chance and had taken it away? He was very anxious. Now that he had some strength, he naturally wouldn't wait any longer.

Chen Yongwen coveted his alchemy finger technique, and Tan Yulan almost killed him. This made Lin Cheng decide to leave.

At the same time, his desire for strength became even stronger.

"Shi Yeming..."

Lin Cheng did not think that things would be so coincidental. He wanted to go to the center of Dongzhou to search for the Blue Fire. Chen Hong's cousin, Zhao Qingyan, happened to be in Dongzhou College. His fiancée, Shi Yueming, was also in Dongzhou College.

However, Lin Cheng did not have many thoughts in his heart, and he had never thought of continuing the engagement with Shi Yueming. His heart was incomparably firm, and he only had one goal in his life - to become a strong man and step into the Immortal Dao.
