Chapter 32 Brazen attack
Seeing this, Lin Yao nodded helplessly, his heart seemingly filled with resentment and regret.
"High-grade mortal martial arts techniques and cultivation methods? That's good. Although Chu Tian is the son of the Chu family patriarch, he is ultimately just a Body Tempering Realm guy. It's a sure way to make a fortune."
"Kid, it's a wise choice. I'll need your cultivation techniques and martial arts skills. I also have high hopes for you. You're good at making informed decisions and advancing and retreating, which will allow you to survive longer in the cycle of reincarnation."
Seeing that Lin Yao had agreed as he had expected, Chen Wei smiled with satisfaction and chuckled.
"Ha ha……"
Lin Yao laughed along, but he was speechless inside.
I initially thought you were up to something, but it turns out you were after Chu Tian. I'll use your lives to strengthen my relationship with Chu Tian.
I'm not the kind of person who kills the goose that lays the golden eggs; a living Chu Tian is better than a dead one.
As for the so-called ordinary high-level cultivation techniques and martial arts skills, are they really beggar-like? With Yue'er's help, am I really someone who lacks cultivation techniques and martial arts skills?
They cling to powerful figures with a clear conscience.
If it weren't for the need to break through to the Qi Refining Realm to cultivate Earth-grade cultivation techniques and martial arts, I would have already mastered the set of cultivation techniques and martial arts that Yue'er handed me.
Qiao Weijie kept a close eye on Lin Yao.
When he heard that this guy had missed out on the alchemist's inheritance, his expression changed, and he seemed to feel a sense of triumph.
The forced smile of regret and resentment that Lin Yao deliberately showed on his face gave Qiao Weijie an instant mental orgasm.
What good is fighting skills? In this world, connections and influence matter.
You, who joined halfway through, are dreaming if you think you can inherit the alchemist's legacy.
Once they've used your value, they'll dump you and make you a scapegoat—that's the normal procedure.
Lin Yao's perception, enhanced by the Chaos God and Demon Visualization Method, allowed him to clearly sense the naked malice.
This feeling wasn't limited to Qiao Weijie; Chen Wei, who possessed the strength of the Qi Refining Realm, was definitely looking to make a profit without any investment.
Meanwhile, Fan Jun, who was quite enthusiastic when he first joined the Reincarnation Space, seems to have disappeared as well.
However, Lin Yao did not point it out that these people in front of him had ulterior motives, and he also wanted to use them to do some things; it was just a mutual exploitation.
In order to adapt to the cycle of reincarnation, many people are changing, and so are the people in front of us, as is Lin Yao.
However, the only thing he could guarantee was that he would never let down those who trusted him, Yue'er, Xiao Bing'er...
……
Fan Jun and the others had started preparations long ago. While ensuring their cultivation, they used their spare time to thoroughly investigate Wu Tancheng's plans.
They knew very well that there was a secluded area within Qinghe City, far from the hustle and bustle, suitable for committing murder and robbery.
Walking on the sparsely populated road, Chu Tian and Chu Ning realized for the first time that Qinghe City had such a dilapidated place.
I feel a bit limping when I walk on the road.
Under normal circumstances, given the status of the Chu family members in Qinghe City, it would be absolutely impossible for them to become friends with people like Fan Jun who came from the Body Tempering Academy.
Distance is a powerful tool for severing relationships.
However, because Fan Jun and others had a very good understanding of the two men's personalities based on the information provided by Chen Wei, they catered to their preferences and, through deliberate effort, managed to maintain a fairly good relationship.
To outsiders, especially to the Chu family's Qi Refining Realm guards who were originally secretly responsible for protecting the two, this was a different story.
These orphans, who had decent cultivation talent, didn't care too much because they wanted to build a good relationship with the Chu family and gain a foothold in Qinghe City in the future.
"Brother Fan Jun, you said there's a surprise here, but I don't think so. This place is so dilapidated, like a godforsaken place. What's so fun about it?"
Although I can't go to those crowded places anymore because of my cousin, it doesn't have to be a place like this! Is this some kind of adventure?!
Chu Tian looked at this deserted place and sensed something was wrong. He frowned and glanced at Fan Jun with a flickering look in his eyes.
But nothing was observed.
As for Fan Jun, he also didn't notice Chu Tian's gaze, because his attention was more focused on Lin Yao.
"Where did Lin Dong go? Why didn't anyone follow? Quitting halfway will cost a lot of points."
On the other side, Chu Ning, unaware of the strange situation and Chu Tian's reaction, looked at the environment before her, shook her head, and seemed somewhat disgusted.
"Yeah, instead of coming here, we might as well go to the market. If all else fails, we can sneak over and watch how the adults listen to music in the brothels. Anyway, with Brother Lin Yao helping to stop them, my older sister shouldn't beat us to death."
"What exactly is this Brother Lin Yao that Chu Ning mentioned? Why is there someone with the surname Lin in the Chu family? And why hasn't that kid Lin Dong arrived yet..."
Qiao Weijie noticed the problem in Chu Ning's words and also didn't see Lin Yao present, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
While everyone was lost in their own thoughts, Fan Jun looked at Chu Tian and Chu Ning beside him, but instead of answering their questions, he subtly glanced at a certain place.
When Chen Wei noticed that he was using some kind of tool to scout out that there were no experts at or above the Qi Refining Realm nearby, he signaled that it was time to take action and ignore Lin Yao, who had stood him up halfway.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes. Now the arrow was on the bowstring and had to be released; he couldn't care less about anything else.
"No, this is a trap."
Having lived two lives, Chu Tian sensed something was amiss early on.
At this moment, with a different mindset, he subtly observed the people around him and discovered that they were looking at him and his cousin Chu Ning with mocking eyes.
As for their stance, they formed a tight encirclement, as if afraid that the children would escape.
"Why are these guys targeting me and Chu Ning? Do they want something from the Chu family? Martial arts techniques, cultivation methods, or a huge ransom?"
Having realized everything, Chu Tian did not choose to make a move, but instead remained silent and waited for an opportunity.
On the other side, Fan Jun barely suppressed the gloom in his heart brought by Lin Yao standing him up, and looked up at the silent Chu Tian and Chu Ning who was looking around.
Thinking of the gains from taking down Chu Tianhou, a genuine smile appeared on his lips.
Looking at Chu Ning next to him, he felt that Chu Ning was getting in his way and it was time to get rid of him.
He immediately joked as he raised his right hand and reached out to grab Chu Ning's head.
"Hehe, Young Master Chu Ning, has anyone said you're too noisy? You don't need to wait for your sister to beat you to death, I'll beat you to death for her right now."
Chu Tian, who was subtly observing Fan Jun, noticed that he was about to attack Chu Ning. His fists, hidden in his robes, clenched tightly, and he was about to step in to help.
However, he noticed that Fan Jun seemed to think victory was assured, and also seemed to underestimate Chu Ning, only exerting 60% of his strength.
