Chapter 1155: Chapter 1175: If You Don’t Have the Strength, Don’t Provoke People You Can’t Afford to Offend!_1

"The Divine Thunder Sky Wood went for 100 million spirit stones, and the Flawless Fruits went for 10 million each; I bought four of them, totaling 140 million."

Xuanji Fairy said softly, "Thank you. I’ll repay you after I come back to life."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "It’s fine. I’m doing all of this to cling onto your thigh after all. As long as you don’t kick me away once you come back to life, it’ll be worth it."

Xuanji Fairy was momentarily speechless. How could this guy never manage to speak properly?

"I’ll kick you! I’ll kick your face, kick you to death!"

Qiao Wei was dumbfounded as she stood nearby. Did Lin Chen really speak like this to a fairy?

Could it be so casual?

Not to mention ordinary cultivators, even immortal slaves were always respectful and in awe when facing immortals.

Could Lin Chen really be bold enough to make a joke with an immortal?

Xuanji Fairy didn’t mind his jokes at all and responded to him just like that, like an intimate...friend?

Impressive!

What a great relationship!

Upon further thought, people’s growth environment must have something to do with it. If it were a cultivator from the Barren Wilderness, they wouldn’t have dared to have such an attitude when meeting an immortal for the first time in tens of thousands of years.

After thinking about it, Lin Chen, who came from the human world, was indeed different from cultivators of the Wildlands.

It’s hard to say where exactly the difference lies, but when you interact with him, you feel that he is different from others.

Being around him makes you feel comfortable.

Wasn’t she first attracted to him for this reason?

"If you manage to refine the Daluo Qiankun Dan successfully, how long do you think it would take to resurrect and restore your strength? How much of your power will you recover?"

"About 20%, I guess."

Lin Chen had no way of estimating just how powerful she would be at 20%, so he asked, "If you recover 20% of your strength, how would it fare against the primordial spirit from the Lower Realm?"

Xuanji Fairy replied, "In a head-on fight, I probably wouldn’t win, but she wouldn’t be able to kill me either. After all, I am a true body, and she is just a primordial spirit from the Lower Realm. She shouldn’t dare to bring her true body down to the Lower Realm."

Lin Chen curiously asked, "Why wouldn’t she dare?"

Xuanji Fairy said with a smile, "The journey from the Immortal Realm to the Barren Wilderness is similar to that from the Barren Wilderness to the Human World. Even with strength, you cannot perform properly. The reason I can only exert 20% of my power is not just because my body is incomplete, but also because of this."

"If she came to the Wildlands, her strength would be suppressed to a very low level. Although she may still be more powerful than me, she might not necessarily be able to crush me completely. Most importantly, she must be afraid of my certain moves that could trap her in the Barren Wilderness."

"She herself definitely wouldn’t dare to enter the Wildlands. She’s not the type to take such a huge risk. At most, she might send her primordial spirit or other immortals to deal with me. So, it’s ’better for her friend to die than for her to be poor,’ right?"

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, "So does that mean as long as you recover, you can basically steamroll through the Barren Wilderness?"

Xuanji replied, "With my 20% power, steamrolling through the Barren Wilderness shouldn’t be a problem, but the premise is that the woman doesn’t find out. Otherwise, she might send her primordial spirit or other immortals to kill me, who aren’t comparable to cultivators from the Barren Wilderness."

Lin Chen laughed, "We’ll do it secretly. Time flies for immortals, and several years can pass in the blink of an eye. By that time, you might have already come back to life and returned to the Immortal Realm."

Xuanji Fairy chuckled, "I hope so. Right now, her immortal slaves are probably searching for me all around the world."

Just as Lin Chen was about to speak, Xuanji suddenly said, "Someone’s coming."

Who’s coming?

Lin Chen was slightly puzzled. He and Qiao Wei stepped out of the pavilion and saw three people descending from the sky. The one leading them was the Arrogant Man from the auction house who had bid against him.

Lin Chen instantly understood. This man had lost the bidding, and now he was ready to deal with him privately.

The Arrogant Man landed on the ground, his eyes falling on Lin Chen, and said coldly, "Kid, do you know why I’m here?"

Lin Chen raised an eyebrow, "Are you here to take it out on me because you feel like you lost face at the auction? Or do you want to force me to give up the Divine Thunder Sky Wood?"

The Arrogant Man sneered, "If you know what’s good for you, hand over the Divine Thunder Sky Wood. I’m not taking it for nothing—I’ll give you 55 million spirit stones!"

Lin Chen blinked, "I bought it for 100 million and fifty, and you’re offering me 55 million. Wouldn’t that mean I’m at a loss?"

The Arrogant Man scoffed, "I could have gotten it for 55 million if it weren’t for you showing off and stirring up trouble. It’s already generous of me to offer you 55 million."

Lin Chen laughed, "So, I have to suffer a loss?"

The Arrogant Man arrogantly said, "Take it as a lesson. If you don’t have the strength, don’t offend people you can’t afford to offend."

Lin Chen nodded, then asked, "You’ve said so much, but won’t you tell me your name, so I know whether I can afford to offend you?"
