He Linsheng gritted his teeth. In an instant, his face was as malevolent as an evil ghost. “Why is he here! Uncle, it’s him. Hurry up and help me kill him!”

Seeing that He Linsheng was agitated and wished that he could eat Lin Bai’s flesh and drink Lin Bai’s blood, He Xueyao said with an unclear meaning, “It was he who refined the seventh grade spirit replenishing pill that allowed you to wake up. Speaking of which, you should thank him instead.”

He Linsheng thought that he was hearing things, so he couldn’t help but ask, “What! ?”

“Could it be that you’ve forgotten that you’ve swallowed too many pills and haven’t fully utilized the medicinal effects? Your spiritual energy has been completely depleted, and your meridians have been severely damaged.”

He Linsheng immediately revealed an incomparably panicked expression. Only then did he realize that his spiritual meridians had indeed been severely damaged, but now that they were slowly recovering, he instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

It was a pity that he would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. He was destined not to be a grateful person. “SowWhat? All of this is what he owes me. If it wasn’t for this brat, how would I have fallen to such a State?”

He Linsheng stared at Lin Bai with a gloomy expression and said to He Qicheng, “Father, I want to make him pay with blood to eliminate the hatred in my heart!”

He Qicheng agreed without the slightest hesitation. “Alright!”

Lin Bai’s eyes were full of mockery. He knew that this father and son pair were the ones who would burn the bridge after crossing the river. He Fan’s expression was dark and unpredictable. He did not agree or reject. Instead, He Xueyao opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, in the end, she did not open her mouth.

“In any case, it’s such a big family. I didn’t expect that they would go back on their words. If this gets out, I’m afraid that many people will laugh at them.”

In the face of Lin Bai’s ridicule, He Linsheng obviously didn’t take it seriously and revealed a cold smile.

“As long as you die, no one will know about this. Who will know? We can completely announce to the public that you committed suicide because of guilt. Who will pursue it?”

“Clap Clap Clap –“

Lin Bai couldn’t help but clap. “It seems that you’ve even thought of a reason for me. If I had known that you were so ungrateful, I wouldn’t have refined the grade seven spirit replenishing pill and made you a cripple.”

Hearing the word ‘cripple’, He Linsheng’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly. “Who did you say was a cripple? If you have the guts, say it again.”

He Qicheng’s heart instantly felt a little uncomfortable. Moreover, he was certain that Lin Bai was the culprit. If it wasn’t for him, all of this wouldn’t have happened.

“These are all your unreasonable arguments. What you’ve done now is only to atone for the mistakes you’ve committed. Even if you die, it’s deserved of your sins.”

Lin Bai was almost angered by the father and son’s ability to twist the narrative. His eyes were full of ridicule.

“If I remember correctly, you started the conflict first. You were the one who wanted to take drugs. In the end, you were the one who lost and ended up like this. Everything was your own fault. Now, you are blaming others. You really know how to shift the blame.”

Lin Bai sighed and said sincerely, “This is the first time I’ve seen such a shameless person in the world.”

If one ignored the sarcasm in his eyes, those who did not know would think that Lin Bai was complimenting him. Even though He Linsheng and his father were thick-skinned, their faces were green and white at the same time, changing colors like a palette.

“You’re still so arrogant after falling into my hands. I think you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin.”

“Why are you talking so much nonsense with him? You have a sharp tongue. I think you’d better be quiet forever!”

Just as He Qicheng was about to attack, Lin Bai was also ready for a big battle. He summoned Little Black, Little Red, and Little Green at any time. He had long thought of a way out.

He Linsheng and his father were not good people and He Fan naturally stood on their side. It was impossible for him not to have a backup plan.

It just so happened that Little Black and Little Green could join hands to cast an illusion spell and trap the He family members inside. Little Red would launch an attack to cover his retreat. Even if it was only for a few seconds, it was enough for him to escape.

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder in the air was getting stronger, a voice suddenly sounded, “Hold on!”

Everyone looked towards the voice. It was Chen Yan. No one had expected him to suddenly speak.

He Fan asked doubtfully, “May I know what Pill Master Chen has to say?”

Chen Yan walked towards Lin Bai and stood in front of him. “You can’t kill this person.”

It wasn’t just the He family members. Even Lin Bai was a little stunned. He Linsheng was just about to open his mouth and say, “Who do you think you are? If you say you can’t kill him, then you can’t kill him. What right do you have to speak?”

“Shut up!”

He Qicheng and He Fan said almost at the same time, “Linsheng, don’t be impudent. This is alchemist Chen.”

Chen Yan’s status as a grade five alchemist was obviously not low. Moreover, he came from the Alchemist association. This faction was extremely powerful. Their branches were almost all over the continent. As long as it wasn’t a particularly remote small city, one could see it.

It could be said that it was widely distributed. There were countless of them. The Alchemist Association located in the capital was only one of them. It could be seen that their strength was strong. Just like that, an ordinary grade three or grade four alchemist in the outside world, was enough to be respected by people.

If it was in Lin Bai’s small city, it was even more of an existence at the peak. However, in the Alchemist Association, it was at most at the entry level. People like Chen Yan were only above average.

The Alchemist Association headquarters had many sixth or seventh grade alchemists who were extremely rare outside. There were even top grade alchemists in charge. However, they rarely appeared in front of the world.

It was enough to show how terrifying the strength behind them was. It was not something the He family could afford to provoke.

It was no wonder He Qicheng and He Fan were so respectful to him.

“Alchemist Chen, do you know him?”

Chen Yan shook his head. “I don’t. I only met this little brother today.”

Hearing this, the He family members were even more confused. Why would Chen Yan suddenly say something like this..
