Taihuang Star Seal

"City Lord Xiao, there are no fire-type and wood-type monster crystal cores in the inventory of the Spiritual Pill Building, and there are also four kinds of herbs that are in short supply."

After listening to Sima Zhong, Xiao Zhenxiong couldn't help but frowned: "Then we can only go to the market to buy it, but doing so is a bit of a waste of time..."

In a blink of an eye, it was three days later.

With Xiao Zhenxiong's powerful financial offensive, the missing materials and crystal cores were all available.

At noon that day, Xiao Zhenxiong received another good news: Ding Chen's background had been found out.

This young man does not have any remarkable background.

About thirteen years ago, a man suspected to be Ding Chen's father saved the Luo family from danger.

Then he entrusted Ding Chen, who was three or four years old, to Luo Haoyuan and left.

This time, he hasn't appeared since more than ten years ago.

According to the great elder Luo Yangjie, Ding Chen's father had died long ago!

Regarding the question of whether Ding Chen has a "master"...

Xiao Zhenxiong questioned the third elder, fourth elder, and sixth elder of the former Luo family one by one, and the conclusion he came to was just four words: never!

In order to verify whether what these "Luo family elders" who had recently rebelled said was true, Xiao Zhenxiong also sent people to conduct a secret investigation.

The result was no different from what the elders had said.

Moreover, according to the report from the people monitoring Luo Mansion—

Ever since Ding Chen was placed under house arrest in the City Lord's Mansion, not even a fly has flown out of the Luo Mansion!

It is even more impossible for someone to tip off the situation...

So, Xiao Zhenxiong and Sima Zhong changed their minds and thought: If Ding Chen really has a powerful backer, it doesn't make sense for him not to make it clear even after being forced to this point.

Perhaps, there is indeed no so-called "Spiritual Realm Alchemist" behind that young man?

This made Xiao Zhenxiong and Sima Zhong feel relieved, but they couldn't help wondering: "But, his superb alchemy skills can't be fake."

"Could it be that... this kid really learned it by himself and awakened his alchemy skills inexplicably?"

Sima Zhong murmured in disbelief.

Xiao Zhenxiong frowned and said, "Perhaps, he had some kind of adventure?"

"For example, he found a legendary 'blessed place for martial arts' or 'Xuan Xiu Dong Tian' and obtained the secret book of alchemy from it?!"

"Hiss, now that you put it that way, it's really possible!"

Sima Zhong's old eyes suddenly lit up: "A blessed land and a cave, this is incredible!"

"But, that kid is not afraid of threats at all..."

"It would be extremely difficult to force him to tell the whereabouts of 'Fudi Dongtian'!"

Xiao Zhenxiong narrowed his eyes and said, "Got it!"

"We can do this and that..."

After hearing this, Sima Zhong hesitated: "Ding Chen's talent in alchemy is quite amazing."

"I am still waiting to drag him to Lingdan Tower, control him with poison, and make him a 'Dan slave' to make elixirs for me day and night to earn money!"

"You let Luo Yongfeng and the others take action. What if those old guys get angry and mess things up..."

Xiao Zhenxiong smiled indifferently: "Haha, don't worry, brother Sima, I know what's going on."

"The reason why I asked those elders of the Luo family to teach that kid a lesson was not just to vent my anger!"

"Wait until he is beaten black and blue, then you and this city lord will come forward to rescue him and win his heart. That's the right thing to do."

"By then, this kid will be grateful and will be less wary."

"Maybe after he finds out the whereabouts of the 'Fudi Dongtian', he will willingly follow you to the 'Lingdan Building' and become a diligent 'Dan slave'!"

Sima Zhong then clapped his hands and laughed: "That's great."

……

evening.

As usual, the servants of the City Lord's Mansion brought a monster meat meal to Ding Chen who was in the training room.

But when the door opened——

"call!"

As a gust of wind blew past, three figures flashed in behind the delivery man.

"Eh? You, you guys..."

The three servants who were delivering the meal were startled and just as they opened their mouths, they were knocked unconscious by a slap.

Several lunch boxes in his hands fell to the ground with a bang!

The noise immediately woke up Ding Chen who was resting with his eyes closed.

When I looked up, I saw three familiar faces——

The old man standing in the middle, bald and beardless, with dark skin, is the third elder of the former Luo family: Luo Yongfeng.

On the left, the man who is over fifty years old, with a pointed face and two mustaches above his lips, is the fourth elder: Luo Guangyao.

The white-haired old woman on the right who is over sixty years old and has a sour look on her face is the sixth elder: Luo Ze.

"Hehehe, you scumbag son-in-law, are you scared silly when you see us?"

The fourth elder spoke first.

The other two followed suit and said in a deep voice:

"Ding Chen, you little beast, you have caused us so much trouble!"

"Not only do we have to live under someone else's roof now, but our wives and children have also been looked down upon and scorned by many people in the city over this period of time."

"All this is thanks to you!"

"I wish I could pull out your tendons and peel off your skin!!"

The three of them spoke louder and louder, with more hatred in their voices, and it didn't seem like they were "acting" at all.

After all, the reputation of "family traitor" is not good, and their experiences are basically true...

"To be honest, I've wanted to kill you for a long time, but I just never had the chance."

"Now it's all right. The city lord is taking a group of people out, saying that he is going to look for some medicinal herbs. We finally got our chance!"

The third elder suddenly spread his legs, pointed at Ding Chen, and then pointed at his feet: "Come, crawl under my crotch, and I might be so happy that I can spare your life."

The three of them were ordered by Xiao Zhenxiong to beat Ding Chen up without harming his life.

In that case, it should be okay to humiliate him a little, right?

Anyway, according to the plan, when they are almost done, Xiao Zhenxiong will come to stop them...

However, what they didn't expect was.

After seeing the three of them, Ding Chen was not scared to pee his pants, but instead felt a little excited?

What's happening here?

Ding Chen stood up slowly, even with a smile on his face: "Oh, you guys came just in time!"

"Come just in time?"

"What do you mean?"

The three of them looked at each other, all of them confused.

At this moment, Ding Chen suddenly rushed forward!

As Ding Chen's unreserved internal strength burst forth, his true martial arts realm was exposed to the few people without any cover.

"The eighth level of the martial body realm?!"

"During the 'Mining Competition', wasn't he only at the 'Third Level of the Martial Body Realm'?"

"It's only been three or four days, how come..."

The three of them were shocked by the sudden change.

The third elder, who was the most powerful, came to his senses first, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Haha, I understand!"

"During the 'Mining Competition' that day, this little beast must have secretly taken some kind of elixir that could conceal the appearance of his cultivation."

"But in fact, he already has the strength of the 'eighth level of the martial body realm', so he can defeat a group of elite team battles!"

"But that's as far as you can go!"

"The cultivation level of the eighth level of the Wuti Realm is indeed extremely strong among the younger generations of the three major families."

"But in my eyes, anyone below the Awakening Meridian Stage is like a three-year-old child playing with a sword. They are simply not worth looking at..."
