Level Up in Martial World

Lu Zhen fell to the ground and closed his eyes.

Lin Yazhou snorted and turned back:

"With your Mental Power damaged, it would take a long time for you to recover. Although I didn't want to sever the path of such a youngling, unfortunately, you left me no choice," he spoke in coldness and turned his head.

"I have fulfilled the promise, Alchemist, and now it is your turn to fulfil your end of the term."

"This…" The Alchemist hesitated, looking at the fallen figure of Lu Zhen.

"What, you don't trust me?" Lin Yazhou raised his brows:

"If so, then forget it."

With a shake of his head, he was about to leave.

"No, no, Senior, I didn't mean it like this."

The Alchemist hurriedly bowed his head and muttered with a trembling voice:

"How dare I renege on my promise, Milord. Here."

Hesitation only flickered for a mere moment before he took out a golden pill and gave it to Lin Yazhou.

"Hmph."

Lin Yazhou caught the pill, turned away, and his figure vanished from the place without speaking a single word.

The Alchemist gritted his teeth with bloodshot eyes, his fist tightly clenched:

"If you weren't a Separation and Union Martial Artist, then you would already be."

His eyes were calm, but this calmness hid terrifying murderous thoughts that could only be suppressed.

As an Alchemist, their pride was high, and even all the sect leaders gave them so much face. Let alone he, who was reaching the next level and was at the cusp of it.

Wherever he went, there would always be a line of people to greet him, and he inevitably grew arrogant because of it. But now, being disrespected right to his nose, it left a sour feeling that couldn't be calmed down.

This old man's temperament was as great as a child's temperament, with pettiness that couldn't be compared!

His body was trembling with rage, and his pupils darted around to find an object on which he could vent his present frustration.

Then his pupils fell on the fallen figure of Lu Zhen, the corner of his lips gradually curling up:

"You bastard, don't expect an easy death. I will also slaughter every single one related to you, and your pitiful city will be my domain soon. I have already informed the sect behind Kong Jiang, and they should be acting soon."

"Exactly, don't expect an easy death."

Suddenly, the Alchemist heard a deep and cold voice in his ears, which caused him to change his expression. Simultaneously, he mechanically turned around to see the cold face of Lu Zhen, who was staring at him.

Gulp!

The Alchemist gulped hard, his soul trembling in fear:

"I… Please, forgive me…"

His voice was cut short as the gleaming saber of Lu Zhen cut through his body in a single slash and cleaved it.

Blood splashed on his body, and Lu Zhen remained calm and collected. He looked at the severed corpse without a shred of mercy.

He then crouched down to loot his body and quickly found some stuff lying around, and Lu Zhen took them all and left in silence.

Before his figure completely landed on the ground, Lu Zhen thought in his heart with doubtfulness:

"Did Lin Yazhou really not notice?"

Lu Zhen landed on the ground and looked at the two sisters.

"Should we stay here or leave?" he casually muttered.

"What happened up there?"

Jui Luli didn't reply to his answer, instead her eyes were on the ship in the sky, filled with confusion.

"I killed Kong Jiang and the Alchemist, and except for this, another thing also happened."

Lu Zhen made a thoughtful expression.

"!?" Jui Luli opened her mouth, looked at Lu Zhen with disbelief in her eyes: "What can be more frightening than this?"

"Hee." Lu Zhen didn't speak but just laughed it off with a smirk on his face. His expression was filled with mysteriousness as he uttered:

"Lin Yazhou appeared and blocked me."

Jui Luli hugged him, her soft breast pressing against his strong chest:

"What happened? Are you injured everywhere?"

"Even if I was injured, with your healing, I would have recovered already," Lu Zhen replied expressionlessly.

"You." She blushed and backed away slightly, just so her soft marshmallow brushed his strong chest, causing her entire face and ears to heat up:

"Anyway, tell me."

Jui Luli pulled his sleeves.

"Fine, I will tell you. That man injured my mental power and thought that I wouldn't wake up anytime soon, so his… image left the place and I was finally able to kill the Alchemist."

"Eh, wouldn't killing the Alchemist cause the wrath of him?"

"Oh," Lu Zhen rubbed her plump cheeks with a smile on his face, "You are so innocent for the world."

"Hmm?"

Jui Luli thought hard, and in just a minute she formed a conclusion in her mind while Lu Zhen rubbed her cheeks:

"Could it be—?"

"Who knows." Lu Zhen touched her red lips with his index finger for her to stop speaking, and then looked behind her. Yin Li was there, almost fully recovered from her injuries, but she was looking sideways with a pout on her cute face.

"I will be leaving this place soon. Are you coming with me or not?"

He turned to Jui Luli again, his expression now serious.

"Didn't you kill Kong Jiang? Why go now?"

"It seems the trouble has not ended. Do you know which sect Kong Jiang is related to? If they can send a representative of a High First-stage Martial Realm, their strength is definitely not weak," Lu Zhen said.

Jui Luli shook her head with a nonchalant expression:

"Don't worry about that. As long as you don't encroach on their interests, and since you have such growth potential, they might make amends to you instead of going out of their way."

"Sigh, you don't understand. How strong is their sect?" Lu Zhen asked with a sigh.

"They are a peak sect just below the super sect. They have multiple peak First-stage Martial Artists."

"How strong are the super sects then?" he asked, raising his brows.

"Super sect is just a coined term for those ancient sects with heritage enough to even defend against a Separation and Union Martial Artist."

"I see." Lu Zhen touched his chin in contemplation.
