Chapter 499: Chapter 519: Deserving This for Provoking Me _1

"How did you get to Yaochi back then?"

While having breakfast, Lin Chen casually asked about Yaochi, after all, this was his primary purpose of coming here.

"At first, I couldn’t cultivate inner qi no matter how hard I tried. The orphanage director took me to that place, and I stayed there for ten days before breaking through and entering the Nei Qi Realm..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen understood.

It seemed that the orphanage director had also discovered the rich spiritual energy at Yaochi, and it was easier to improve and breakthrough in such an environment. Hence, he took Zhou Yin there, and as a result, she successfully broke through and entered the Nei Qi Realm.

"What kind of place was it?"

Zhou Yin’s eyes lit up as she answered, "It was a magical place. It was surrounded by snow-capped mountains and ice, but the water in the pool did not freeze. The bottom of the pool was colorful, making the entire pool look very beautiful, especially when compared to the surrounding environment, the contrast was intense."

"I cultivated beside the pool and felt the air there was so refreshing, just like what was described in the books as refreshing to the heart and soul. Breathing it in, I felt invigorated. If it weren’t for the difficulty in getting to that place, I would definitely go there to cultivate frequently."

Lin Chen asked, "Is the pool large?"

Zhou Yin shook her head, "Not big. Its diameter was probably only about ten meters. It was a small, round pool. There must be a spring inside, as water flowed outward from the pool, but very slowly. From a bird’s eye view, it looked like the eye of a snowy mountain."

Lin Chen nodded, "Okay, you take me there, and I’ll forget about your extortion."

"Alright!"

Zhou Yin finally relaxed. Lin Chen didn’t touch her the entire night, which filled her with gratitude and affection towards him.

"How long do you plan to stay there?"

Lin Chen shook his head, "I don’t know, maybe for a while."

"Oh, you’re probably going there for cultivation, right?"

Zhou Yin said, "If you’re going to stay there for a while, you’ll need to prepare a lot of things: tents, cooking utensils, quilts, food, cold-resistant clothing, and medicines. The better prepared you are, the more comfortable your stay will be. Otherwise, it’ll not only be hard but also risk falling sick and encountering trouble."

Lin Chen nodded, "Alright, I’ll listen to you."

Zhou Yin said with a laugh, "I’ll take you to buy the equipment later."

After the two finished breakfast and walked out of the hotel, they saw Sun Tao coming from a distance along with an old man in his sixties who walked with his head held high, as if his eyes were on top of his head.

Zhou Yin’s face changed slightly, and she whispered, "I know that person. His name is He Leng. He is a Grandmaster and a member of the Tiemu Sect. Sun Tao’s backer is him, and he usually settles any trouble Sun Tao gets into."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Bringing only one Grandmaster, they really underestimate us."

Zhou Yin gave a bitter smile, "If you have any phone calls or connections to use, do it now. It might be too late once a conflict arises, and no one might care about your identity then."

As the two were talking, Sun Tao had already walked straight over. The old man looked up in front of Lin Chen and Zhou Yin, "I am He Leng, an elder of the Tiemu Sect. I heard that you have beaten four of our Tiemu Sect members and humiliated Sun Tao..."

Lin Chen laughed, "Indeed, that’s what happened."

He Leng didn’t expect Lin Chen to admit it so simply, as it wasn’t the answer he had anticipated. In his view, since he had stepped forward, Lin Chen would definitely explain the reasons and prove that he was the victim and forced to do it...

Lin Chen’s unconventional response completely disrupted He Leng’s rhythm.

He Leng paused for two seconds before continuing, "Alright, I like straightforward people. Since you admit it so generously, I’ll get straight to the point. You injured my Tiemu Sect disciples, how do you plan to settle this matter?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Why settle it? They provoked me, and they deserved it. I was already merciful, only giving each of them a slap on the face to reflect on..."

He Leng sneered, "What arrogance! What’s your name?"

"Lin Chen."

He Leng thought for a moment, not recalling this name. He scoffed, "Then what’s your background?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "No sect, no school."

He Leng’s heart instantly settled. Although he had come to help Sun Tao with his problem, it was all a matter of profit and loss. Why would He Leng help Sun Tao otherwise?

He Leng was scared too.

He was afraid of encountering a situation where someone was pretending to be weak and feasting on tigers, which would result in his own downfall along with Sun Tao’s.

It was better to ask clearly before making a move to avoid trouble.

"Kid, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. Apologize now, and you won’t lose anything you’re supposed to give, but you can avoid getting beaten up and having broken arms and legs..."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I’ll give you a chance too. Slap yourself twice, and I’ll let you guys off!"

It was rare for the Tiemu Sect to be "let off" by anyone in Ding City. Hearing Lin Chen’s words, He Leng immediately exploded, "What a brash kid..."
