Chapter 1444: Chapter 1464: I Can Put On Airs Again! _1

Shi Longjun stared into Lin Chen’s eyes, shaking his head slowly.

"The amount of Green Lotus Fire Spring is limited. We do not have enough for ourselves, so it has always been a non-sale item..."

"Non-sale item?"

Lin Chen with an expression of surprise asked: "No matter how high the price, it won’t be sold?"

Shi Longjun responded without hesitation: "Yes, no matter how high the price, it will not be for sale."

Lin Chen sighed, stood up with an expression of regret: "What a pity, it seems I have to leave empty-handed."

"Friend Lin, wait a moment."

Shi Longjun stood up to retain him, hesitated a bit, then said: "To be frank, our Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines is currently in big trouble. If Friend Lin can represent the White Crane Immortal Sect and help us resolve this trouble, I am willing to gift a part of the Green Lotus Fire Spring to you as a token of gratitude."

Lin Chen again sat down: "I’m just one person and do not represent the White Crane Immortal Sect. But you can go ahead and tell me about the problem, let me see if there is any way I can be of help."

Shi Longjun nodded and proceeded to explain the situation in detail.

The problem was not too complicated. The disciples from Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines and the Qingliu Sect fought over an Immortal Medicine. Two disciples from the Qingliu Sect died, one of them being the son of a sect elder.

A battle broke out between the Qingliu Sect and the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines because of this incident. Several people died or were injured, and the situation did not calm down. Instead, it escalated.

A while ago, the Valley Master of the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines was ambushed during an outing and returned seriously injured, currently in a coma. The Qingliu Sect then came to collect an astronomically high compensation, including the Green Lotus Fire Spring.

They warned if the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines did not compensate within ten days, then they would raze the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines and obliterate it completely.

The Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines sent people to find help, but the people they sent for help were promptly returned, badly injured and dumped at the entrance of the valley. It was evident that the Qingliu Sect had sealed the valley’s exit, not allowing them any chance of calling for help.

Today was already the ninth day, so tomorrow was the final day.

At this moment, Lin Chen had arrived to buy the Green Lotus Fire Spring, which was suspicious and made and others suspect Lin Chen as being a part of the Qingliu Sect.

Lin Chen asked: "Is the Qingliu Sect very strong?"

Shi Longjun answered: "Their strength is more or less similar to the Valley of Ten Thousand Medicines, but my Master was ambushed and is in a coma. He was the strongest in our valley. With him down, no one else can resist the Elder of the Qingliu Sect, Lu Ze’an. Lu Ze’an is at the strength of an early Golden Immortal."

Lin Chen by now understood the overall power scale of the Thunderbolt Immortal Domain. Leaving aside the minor sects, the factions he had encountered like the Sea Cloud Sect were of medium power, and the strongest individuals in these sects were basically peak True Immortals.

With Golden Immortals, or even peak Golden Immortals like the White Crane Immortal Sect and the Boundless Sword Sect, as well as having a powerhouse of the Heavenly Immortal Stage, they were considered the first line of power, and those having a Celestial Immortal Stage powerhouse were considered super forces.

As for something more powerful than an Immortal, it was uncertain whether such a power existed in the Thunderbolt Immortal Domain or not.

Sect power was determined by the strongest person, even if it was only one individual, as long as they were powerful enough, they could command respect.

The White Crane Immortal Sect had a super powerhouse like Su Shaoling and in strict terms, they counted as a super power. However, Su Shaoling had departed and not returned for thousands of years, thus their influence had naturally diminished.

However, if anyone wanted to deal with the White Crane Immortal Sect, or if they were preparing to obliterate the White Crane Immortal Sect, they must take into account that Su Shaoling might suddenly return and how to deal with him at that time.

Even though Su Shaoling was no longer there, he was still a talisman protecting the White Crane Immortal Sect.

Even though there was only one realm’s classification difference in the rank of power, but if it was above the immortal realm, let alone one big realm, even just a small realm, the power gap between the early and middle stages of realms were like a chasm and very hard to cross.

Lin Chen asked: "You said that the Valley Master’s power was on par with that of Lu Ze’an, then who could be the one that ambushed him?"

Shi Longjun shook his head: "I don’t know. The power of the ambusher was much stronger than my Master’s. They were wearing a mask and did not reveal their true face."

Having understood most of it, Lin Chen spoke: "I understand the situation now. Can I discuss it with my friend?"

"Sure, I need to attend to some matters. I will come back later."

When Shi Longjun had left, Lin Chen turned to ask: "Fairy, why did you suddenly push me forward?"

Zi Yun Fairy spoke righteously: "Aren’t you the subordinate? Aren’t these kinds of trivial matters for you to solve? Or should I be the one to argue with him?"

Your reasoning is impeccable!

Lin Chen had nothing to refute and simply asked about the main issue: "What do we do now?"

Zi Yun Fairy calmly replied: "I must obtain the Green Lotus Fire Spring."

Lin Chen nodded: "Alright, we will stay then. For the weaker ones, I can deal with them. As for the stronger ones, I will have to leave them to Fairy."

Zi Yun Fairy stared at Lin Chen: "You were able to strike down a Peak True Immortal with one sword, what are you afraid of facing a mere early Golden Immortal?"

Lin Chen candidly replied: "The couple of life-saving Sword Qi moves that my senior gave me, after using it once there will be one less. It’s best not to use it unless it’s absolutely necessary."

Zi Yun Fairy understood and did not ask further: "Alright, if you cannot handle it, I will step in."

Lin Chen let out a sigh of relief, and chuckled: "Well, in that case, I suppose I could bluff a bit..."
