Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 691: Chapter 284 – This Child, Cannot Be An Enemy!_3

“Enough, enough, it seems the items of the Li Family are not destined to be mine.”

“I am at Fifth Level Foundation Establishment Stage, I wonder what are my chances of winning if I compete with him? Will he still be able to execute that move?”

“His strength is truly unfathomable, he didn’t even use any magic tool. No! As a master of a territory, he certainly possesses a Magic Item. I better not meddle with him.”

“Let’s sneak away, sneak away!”

At the green mountain on both shores.

After the stark silence, sounds of clamor reverberated throughout.

As Luo Chen’s cold gaze swept over, the clamor descended into silence once again.

The Qi Refinement Stage Rogue Cultivators scurried away in panic, forsaking their intentions of fishing in troubled waters.

The majority of the Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators directly left.

Only a minor few, nod at Luo Chen in acknowledgement, mingled a while and then left.

Luo Chen stood tall against the sky, overlooking all around him.

His majestic demeanor was unstoppable!

…

One minute ago.

On an unnamed barren mountain.

A middle-aged Taoist man with a sallow face was about to step forward.

However, the foot he was about to step forward with quickly retracted back.

A figure holding a staff descended from the clouds in the sky.

The middle-aged man looked at the person coming towards him, his pupils contracted.

“Tian Kuizi!”

Chu Kui carrying his long stick, said helplessly:

“Cultivator Huang Sha, you never had any intentions when Li Jinhuang was alive, why do you need to now that he is dead? Doesn’t this tarnish your reputation?”

Cultivator Huang Sha said in a low voice: “We both understand well, when he was alive, there were obligations with Qingdan Valley, who among the Late Stage Foundation Establishment would dare make a move.”

Chu Kui curled his lips but nodded his head anyway.

This was how things worked in the Immortal Cultivation World.

When you are alive, I will respect you out of reverence and affection.

But once you die, all affection ends.

As for benefits?

They can still be sought from others!

Thus, the saying as one departs, the world moves on, fits here perfectly.

Seeing this, Cultivator Huang Sha softened his tone of voice: “Did Li Jinhuang hire you with money? He is about to die, you have already made your move, there is no need to stop me from now on.”

“Unfortunately, no!”

Chu Kui shrugged his shoulders.

Frowning his brows, Cultivator Huang Sha’s gaze fell upon the vast river in the distance.

He sees Wei Tuo walking towards the junior at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Right, let this stupid person act first and seize it, and he will unrightfully take over the Li Family’s businesses afterwards.

However, his gaze fell upon the junior at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

“Did Luo Chen hire you?”

“Congratulations, you guessed right.” Chu Kui inserted his stick into the ground, “He is not dead yet, so I still have work to do.”

Upon saying this, he twitched his eyebrows.

“Honestly, I suggest you take action, then I could also exercise my body a bit. Otherwise, the Spirit Stones I will earn later might suffer a great discount.”

“I must tell you, that man Luo Chen is a real penny pincher, not at all as generous as the outer world portrays him.”

Cultivator Huang Sha’s face darkened.

His skin complexion was not good to begin with, all the more unpleasant with his now darkened face.

Chu Kui did not earn his moniker of Tian Kuizi from someone’s recommendation, instead, he earned it through countless battles.

In this Tian Lan Immortal City’s expanse of land, he is known as the leader among the Rogue Cultivators!

Under the circumstances that the Sect Foundation Establishment does not send anyone out, no one can do anything about him.

It is even rumoured that the few times he lost to a Sect Foundation Establishment True Disciple, he intentionally lost.

With the strength of Huang Sha, competition with Chu Kui would result in a 40 to 60 odds.

40 for him, 60 for Chu Kui.

The reason it’s so high is because his realm is one level higher than Chu Kui’s.

“I would suggest, at your age, and the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment Stage, why don’t you think about breakthroughs to the Golden Core Period, instead of wasting your energy on these petty profits?”

“The benefits simply don’t outweigh the risks!”

Cultivator Huang Sha suppressed his anger, looked into the distance and spoke in a faint voice:

“I am not like you, lone and friendless, I have a clan and descendants.”

“As such, that Spirit Land is no longer able to meet the needs of the clan, naturally I need to expand elsewhere.”

Chu Kui curled his lips, muttering to himself: “That still doesn’t allow you to rob others of what they have established! Just like a bandit, it injures our reputation.”

Feigning ignorance to his sarcasm.

In a cold voice, Cultivator Huang Sha said:

“The Immortal Cultivation World has always been about the survival of the fittest, if you can’t protect it, might as well give it up.”

Chu Kui suddenly became interested.

“So do you think Luo Chen can protect the Li Family?”

“Humph, Wei Tuo is not someone easy to deal with…”

Before finishing his words, Cultivator Huang Sha stopped talking.

Because, he felt that terrifying spirit power fluctuation.

Despite being so far away, it made his body feel chilled!

Chu Kui’s heart also trembled a bit, but maintained his firm demeanor.

“Look, do you still think he can protect it now?”

Cultivator Huang Sha drew a deep breath, “If I take action…”

As soon as he heard those words, Chu Kui’s eyes brightened.

He quickly pulled out his stick.

“Come on, come on!”

“Humph!”

Cultivator Huang Sha turned briskly and departed.

He had no more desire for the Li Family’s resources.

If Luo Chen could hire Chu Kui once, he could hire him again.

If he really incited them, based on Chu Kui’s nature of doing things for money, who knows, he might start a fight with their clan.

Moreover, that Luo Chen…

Watching his departing figure, Chu Kui sighed repeatedly.

I’m losing several tens of thousands!

He picked up his stick, flying back towards the Qin Flower River.

On the way, as he passed a green mountain, the corner of his eye suddenly tightened.

“Huh?”
