Chapter 2172: Chapter 2192: Nangong Night Gains Recognition_1

"Petty trick!"

The voice of Hua Tianjun was like a thunderbolt, echoing through the Nine Heavens. At the same time, a green radiance poured over everything, colliding with the brainwashing demon sound.

In an instant, the sky was filled with green light.

"Ah!"

Duan Yuelan let out a miserable cry and turned into a streak of green light, fleeing instantaneously. At the same time, the magical treasure she had thrown out exploded violently, instantly collapsing the surrounding space.

Lin Chen was also within this explosion range. At the sight that he was about to be shattered by the shockwave, the green light spread over, wrapping around him, blocking the broken space fluctuation in front of him.

The space fluctuation slowly subsided, there was no trace of Duan Yuelan in the air anymore.

Hua Tianjun was frowning, looking at the distance: "She’s injured. I fear it will take one or two hundred years to recover. I reckon she won’t have the energy to hunt you down anymore."

Lin Chen blinked, "She’s injured, but she’s not dead, is she? She can’t beat you and she doesn’t dare to provoke you. Now this accountability isn’t all on my head, is it? Even if she’s severely injured again, killing me would be no problem at all. Fellow cultivator Hua, aren’t you washing your hand off after instigating this trouble?"

Hua Tianjun turned his head to glance at Lin Chen, snorting coldly, "I have already helped you to chase her away, don’t push your luck."

However, Lin Chen showed no fear, "Where am I pushing my luck? I am just speaking reason, okay? Tell me, where did I say something wrong?"

Hua Tianjun was silent for a second, "She had just used a secret treasure, and I had protected you which made me unable to pursue her. I also have no way to find her now..."

Lin Chen magnanimously waved his hand, "How about this, when Yu Shoudao died, he placed a Life Curse on me at the cost of his life. You help me to lift this Life Curse, and Duan Yuelan won’t be able to track me, then this matter can be considered settled. If she finds me again in the future, I will consider it as my bad luck. Is that okay?"

"Life Curse?"

Hua Tianjun once again fell silent for a few seconds, "I can’t lift it."

Lin Chen looked at Hua Tianjun with a face of shock as if he was very surprised. After a few seconds, he changed his tune, "Okay, it is indeed troublesome to resolve the Life Curse. I don’t blame you if you can’t lift it. How about this, I heard that your Heavenly One Sect has a Ten Thousand Medicine Garden, which cultivates countless Immortal Medicines. I want three Ghost Face Blues. We can consider the favor you owe me returned. How is that?"

"Ghost Face Blue?"

Hua Tianjun coldly stared at Lin Chen, "This is your real purpose in coming here, isn’t it?"

Lin Chen candidly replied, "If you had killed Duan Yuelan straight away, or lifted the Life Curse from me directly, where would I need to find any Ghost Face Blue? This is just a solution out of no choice. Just say whether you agree or not."

Hua Tianjun stared at Lin Chen, his eyes seemed like sharp awls, wanting to pierce several bloody holes in Lin Chen, but Lin Chen acted nonchalantly as if knowing he was owed a favor, staring fearlessly at Hua Tianjun.

"You were there with so many people that day. Are you going to ask each one of them for a favor?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Some people will renege on their debt, but I think you, Hua Tianjun, won’t. Besides, you are the one with the Ghost Face Blue, who else should I ask if I don’t ask you?"

The expression on Hua Tianjun’s face became somewhat strange. Was this considered as a compliment to himself?

Hua Tianjun snorted, "Follow me."

Lin Chen immediately felt relieved, smiled, and followed Hua Tianjun’s footsteps.

Soon, the two arrived at the Heavenly One Sect. Hua Tianjun threw a phrase "Wait here" before he went into the Heavenly One Sect.

Soon, a disciple of the Heavenly One Sect came out and handed a box specially for storing Immortal Medicine to Lin Chen.

After inspecting the items, Lin Chen confirmed it was the Ghost Face Blue that he needed. After he safely put away the medicine, Lin Chen asked, "Where’s Master Hua?"

The disciple answered calmly, "The Hall Master has gone to cultivate. He has instructed me to give you the medicine and to relay a message."

Lin Chen laughed, "Please tell me."

"After you betrayed the Three-Saint Sect, I have a higher regard for you. But if you want to gain my approval, it is far from enough. I will wait for you to defeat me."

Lin Chen’s expression became somewhat strange. This message was not meant for him; it was clearly for Nangong Night!

Without wasting any time, Lin Chen flew up immediately and soon arrived above the sky dome, entering the Linglong Tower.

Having obtained the Ghost Face Blue Lin Chen’s clone brought back and hearing the relayed message, Lin Chen’s expression suddenly became subtle.

"This Hua Tianjun is indeed strange. He treated his son like dirt before, but now he somewhat acknowledges him..."

Ziyun Zunzhe smiled, "South Palace Night’s mother, South Palace Yuan, once schemed against Hua Tianjun. She gave birth to South Palace Night and used this relationship as a protective talisman. Three-Saint Sect also wanted to fetter Hua Tianjun with this. It’s quite normal that Hua Tianjun despises South Palace Yuan and her son out of resentment. Now that South Palace Night has betrayed Three-Saint Sect and even helped you to kill Yu Shoudao, in Hua Tianjun’s view, this behavior appears more like a man who dares to take responsibility. So, he probably gained some approval for him."

After careful thought, Lin Chen agreed, "It might indeed be the case. How proud Hua Tianjun is! A man who dares to challenge Qin Zheng. He is no one who will allow someone to fetter him with petty tricks. The fact that Nangong Night was seeking protection wholeheartedly, he disdains; Nangong Night risking his life and leading his own path, he appreciates..."
