Chapter 65 The Sun Rises From the West

For several days, Lu Chen did not go out. He stayed in his residence and fiddled with various kinds of pills.

During this period, he also practiced the Heaven-Slashing Technique twice.

Every time he slashed, he was exhausted. He had eaten a lot of top-grade spiritual energy pills, and only had 100 left.

He was heartbroken. The main material of the top-grade spiritual energy pills was in short supply. Where could he get spiritual energy stones?

One less after eating one, there was no way to replenish it.

Of course, practicing twice more would make him more proficient, and he would have a certain control over the Heaven-Slashing Technique.

Now, the power of the slash has increased a lot, and the power is even greater.

Until one day, Chen Yuanliang's laughter came from outside.

"Hahaha, Master, I finally refined the top-grade spiritual energy pill!"

When Lu Chen opened the door, he saw Chen Yuanliang holding a pill furnace, with a smug look on his face, and his mouth was so happy that he couldn't close it.

"Why are you so happy? You have only succeeded until now. What's there to be happy about?"

Lu Chen looked at Chen Yuanliang with contempt. The method of sealing the furnace he taught was indeed feasible, but this guy's talent for alchemy was not good. Otherwise, he should have succeeded long ago with his hand-in-hand teaching.

"Master, look, I succeeded in refining five pills at once!"

Chen Yuanliang smiled and opened the furnace cover. There were nine Hualing Pills inside, five of the best quality, two of the upper quality, and two of the middle quality.

For Chen Yuanliang, this result was already beyond the limit.

"Not bad, I'm lucky."

Lu Chen nodded, affirming Chen Yuanliang's alchemy skills, but also affirming Chen Yuanliang's luck.

For an alchemist without soul fire, using true fire to refine a third-level top-quality pill, the failure rate is naturally very high. Even if he succeeds, he can only refine one.

Chen Yuanliang succeeded in refining five pills at once. Wasn't it mostly luck, or what?

"Master is right. I am indeed lucky. Look at my alchemy robe." Chen Yuanliang still had a smile on his face. He didn't mind Lu Chen's blow at all. He even straightened his chest and pointed at his alchemy robe to show Lu Chen. "Oh, you have been promoted." Lu Chen then noticed that Chen Yuanliang's alchemy robe had an extra red pattern, and he was a little surprised. Chen Yuanliang's alchemy robe had a total of four red patterns, representing a fourth-level alchemist! The alchemy robe is a magical robe made of special materials that can show the owner's status in alchemy. Chen Yuanliang made a breakthrough in his alchemy attainments. When he was promoted to the next level, the alchemy robe automatically had an extra pattern, which was synchronized with the owner's level. "Thank you for your tireless guidance, Master. Otherwise, I would not have been able to be promoted to the fourth level within seven days." Chen Yuanliang bowed excitedly, with endless gratitude to Lu Chen. If it weren't for Lu Chen's support, he would still be managing the small alchemy hall in Shuangmu City, and he would still be that low-level alchemist of the first level. A fourth-level alchemist is an intermediate-level one, and his alchemy skills are improving rapidly.

"Seven days? Oh, how many days are left in the bet?"

Lu Chen then remembered the seven-day bet with Lai Guang.

"Today is the seventh day."

"Hurry up, go sharpen the knife."

"What are you sharpening the knife for?"

"Cut the balls!"

"Yes, yes, I'll go sharpen it right away."

A large group of people came outside Feixia Gate.

Lai Guang came, and Wu Qugong and Sha Haifei also came.

The high-level officials of Feixia Gate also came out to prevent Lai Guang from kicking the door.

The relationship between Feixia Gate and Lai Guang is so bad, and Lai Guang has the support of Ziyun Gate and Suisha Gate, so it is hard to guarantee that he will not take the opportunity to make trouble.

Miao Yan did not expel Lai Xiang, and still let Lai Xiang stay in the gate, in fact, to make Lai Guang afraid to act rashly.

And Lai Guang was also extremely depressed. He sent people to notify Lai Xiang several times, asking Lai Xiang to withdraw from Feixia Gate.

Unexpectedly, Lai Xiang refused to leave even if he was beaten to death, saying that he occupied a good position and was waiting for the underground dragon vein to awaken.

Underground dragon vein?

Is it that easy to awaken?

Among the ninety-nine cities in Dengzhou, only Dengzhou City has one dragon vein. The state lord's mansion was built on that dragon vein and has been guarding it to this day.

If Feixiamen really has a dragon vein to awaken, it should shake Dengzhou. How could Lai Guang not know?

Lai Guang had a doubt. Did Feixiamen keep the matter too secret and outsiders didn't know?

He told the state lord the news, and the state lord was also shocked, but still half-believing and half-doubting.

"Where is Lu Chen, don't you dare to come out?"

Lai Guang looked left and right, but didn't see Lu Chen, so he questioned Miao Yan.

"Someone has gone to notify him. He will be here soon. Grand Master, please wait for a moment."

Miao Yan responded indifferently, and then whispered to Pan Qingyan and other elders, "I saw Master Chen yesterday. He is still at the third level. Lu Chen did not create a miracle and he is doomed to lose. But Lu Chen is the candidate designated by Xuantian Sect. He is of great importance. We Feixia Sect must ensure that he is not harmed."

"Master, are you going to default on your debt? If so, you must not do that."

"Yes, admitting defeat is a matter of eternity. If we help Lu Chen default on his debt, we will definitely be ridiculed by the world. How can Feixia Sect gain a foothold in martial arts in the future?"

"Lu Chen took the initiative to find this bet. He is purely courting death, but he wants us to pay for it. It is really unreasonable."

"Everyone does his own thing and takes his own responsibility. Lu Chen will take the responsibility for the trouble he caused. If he loses, he loses. He should cut whatever he should cut. He will not die if he is cut. Why should we care about him?"

Many elders expressed dissatisfaction and disagreed to help Lu Chen.

Miao Yan looked at the indignant elders and lost her temper completely.

A few days ago, these old guys were chasing Lu Chen to please them, but now they have changed their ways.

In the final analysis, it was all about interests.

They didn't get any benefits from Lu Chen, not even a top-grade spiritual pill, and they were almost turning into grudges.

"The Great Alchemy Pavilion, Ziyun Sect and Shasha Sect have joined forces to force us to come to our door. They bullied me, Feixia Sect, too much. I can't swallow this breath anymore."

Pan Qingyan spoke with a cold tone, "When Lu Chen loses later, I will protect Lu Chen. I will teach Lu Chen to default on his debts. If anyone laughs at him, then just laugh at me, Pan Qingyan."

"Everyone, please don't forget that our Feixia Sect lacks many resources and is difficult to develop. And our breakthrough lies in Lu Chen. Once he enters the Xuantian Sect, our dilemma will be solved."

Elder Fang also spoke, rarely defending Lu Chen, "So, Lu Chen cannot be harmed. I will come forward later to support Lu Chen. At worst, we will have another fight with Wu Qugong and the others. With the sect master here, what should we be afraid of?" "

The two elders of Feixia Sect supported Miao Yan's decision, and the other elders had nothing to say. If the other party wants to start a war later, then they will start a war.

However, the elders looked at Elder Fang with more or less contempt.

Elder Fang disagreed, holding his head high and ignoring all contempt.

"Hey, Elder Fang is actually willing to fight for my little disciple. Has the sun risen from the west?"

A mocking voice sounded.

Lu Chen walked out of the crowd, holding his chin and looking confused, and came to Elder Fang.

Lu Chen couldn't understand. Elder Fang was petty and had always held a grudge against him. As long as something happened to him, it would be his conscience not to add insult to injury. How could he help him?

"Oh, Lu Chen, look at what you said, why does the sun come out from the west? You really don't understand me."

Elder Fang was not angry, but instead straightened his face and said seriously, "I am the chief elder of the inner sect, and it is a matter of law to protect the inner sect disciples. Otherwise, I would be derelict in my duty."

Lu Chen was a little confused.

what's the situation?

Elder Fang took the wrong medicine?

Or am I still asleep?

Looking around, Lu Chen was a little surprised to find that Zhang Chengbin was also there.

As an outer disciple, he is not qualified to follow the elders unless

"what happened?"

Lu Chen asked in a low voice.

"I followed Elder Fang and have already entered the inner gate."

Zhang Chengbin responded quickly, with a look of joy on his face.

"ha?"
