Chapter 120: Chapter 120- Climbing the tower (2)

Inside the infernal battle tower, third floor.

Lin Huiyin sat crosslegged and was silently cultivating. A great amount of heat was being released from her body. Due to the sudden attack from the Zhang duo earlier, she was unable to acclimate her body to the level of flame energy on the third floor.

And due to further pushing her body to its limit during their battle, she was in a pretty precarious situation. Even her cultivation might have been endangered if not because of Yang Chen providing her with a Cold Energy Pill which was helpful for suppressing flame energy.

At first, she was hesitant to take that pill from a hateful guy like him. However, when he threatened that he would feed it to her forcefully if need be, she could only take the pill.

Feeling the effects of the tier 1 pill soothe her body and suppress the infernal flames wreaking havoc in her body, Lin Huiyin felt a great relief. She hurriedly circulated her battle energy around her body and using the secret cultivation art of her Lin clan, she slowly absorbed the flame energy inside her body.

Since the infernal flames of this tower had the properties of cleansing one’s bones and marrow, it helped her remove the impurities from her body.

As the saying goes, in every danger lies an opportunity, Lin Huiyin used this chance and fervently absorbed the large amount of infernal flames that entered inside her body to push towards the next rank.

To her surprise, she felt her strength slowly rising. It wasn’t very long ago that she broke through the battle apprentice stage and entered the battle master level. Yet now her level already showed signs of increasing once again.

Time passed by and Lin Huiyin continued cultivating. It was only after when she sensed her body had completely acclimated to the infernal flames here and the energy inside her body was in control, did she stop cultivating.

That being said, she did not immediately open her eyes and get up. The reason for that was because, Yang Chen sat cross-legged not very far away from her.

She didn’t know why but every time she looked at him, her heart would start pounding faster and her mind would become turbulent.

Then there was also the matter about the wager she made with Yang Chen which was the large part of her worry.

"Why did I have to go ahead and make such a bet with him... Kuh!! What should I do now?" Lin Huiyin grimaced. She slightly opened her eyes and peeked at Yang Chen who was silently seated in his place

She was just peeking at him, when suddenly their eyes accidentally met.

"I knew it, you are done cultivating" The latter got up from his place and approached her. "Hey, don’t pretend, I saw you opening your eyes just a second ago"...

"Hmph" In front of his insistence, Lin Huiyin simply snorted and refused to open her eyes.

"Heh, if you are going to be like that then, I have no choice. Do you still remember the wager that you made? What was the condition again? Hmm... wasn’t it something along the lines of if you win, I will do anything? Hehe, I wonder what I should ask of you?" Yang Chen sized Lin Huiyin up and down.

Feeling his intense gaze on her body, Lin Huiyin frowned her brows and hurriedly opened her eyes.

"You...!!" She was about to say something in anger only to see the teasing smile on Yang Chen’s face.

She hurriedly shifted her eyes as her face blushed red.

What was going on, why was she even unable to match his gaze? Oblivious to her emotional turmoil, Yang Chen continued "Hehe, I won the wager. Shouldn’t you also keep your end of the promise?".

"W-What do you want?" With a voice as low as a mosquito, Lin Huiyin muttered. She was still unable to gaze directly at him.

Seeing her behave so strangely, Yang Chen decided to tease her more.

"I want you to...".

BADUMP... BADUMP... What was he going to ask? He wouldn’t ask that right? Just imagining about it, made her ears go red.

"I want you to... forget about our grudge"

However, to her surprise, nothing of that sort happened. Yang Chen only wanted to have a clean slate with her.

Lin Huiyin was silent, it was only now that she realised the other party was only teasing her earlier by saying things like that. And here she was imagining all sorts of things. Shame and embarrassment filled her heart.

Lin Huiyin who was unable to look straight at Yang Chen just a few seconds ago, was now glaring at him with fierce eyes like that of a lioness.

"You hateful fellow, go die" Shouting those few words, Lin Huiyin ignored Yang Chen and rushed towards the passageway to the fourth floor. She was just about to reach the staircase when, Yang Chen appeared in front of her like a ghost.

"You... are you going back on your words?".

This guy how was he so fast? Lin Huiyin brooded. Earlier when facing the bullies from the Zhang Clan, he was so sharp and witty. How did he become so dull all of a sudden to not even get the hidden meaning behind her words.

That said, how can she forget the scene from the bathhouse so easily? It was him who entered her bath. Lin Huiyin felt like if she let it go so easily, she would lose to him. That was something she was unwilling to accept.

Just as she was pondering as to what to do, an idea suddenly struck her.

"Who said that I’m going back on my word? Of course, I Lin Huiyin will keep my word without even you needing to say it. However, have you really completed the wager?"...

"What do you mean?" Yang Chen locked his brows in a frown. As he had proposed he came out unscathed from the combined attack of the Zhang Duo, what else could there still be left?

A crafty light flashed in Lin Huiyin’s eyes as she pointed out "You seem to be misunderstanding something. Yes, I did accept the wager however, I also that I will only comply if you won without a scratch".
