Chapter 497: Meeting Feng Yichen Again

Little Chick has been in a deep slumber for over ten years this time.

It is the longest time it has ever slept.

During its slumber, its cultivation growth speed was extremely fast.

Now, its cultivation has reached the Seventh-Order Will Stage.

At the same time, its appearance has also undergone significant changes.

The feathers on its tail have grown quite a bit longer.

Although the feathers on its body are still cyan, they have become as crystal clear as precious jade, with a faint shimmer rippling over them.

If one senses carefully, one can perceive that this shimmer, while seemingly inconspicuous, contains an extremely astonishing aura of destruction within.

It is just that Little Chick seems to be controlling it deliberately; when the cyan shimmer touches him, it does not cause him the slightest impact.

It only makes him feel an extremely comfortable sense of warmth.

"Cheep, cheep, cheep~"

After seeing Wang Jianqiang again, Little Chick seems very excited, jumping around incessantly on his shoulder.

Wang Jianqiang smiles and strokes its soft feathers, "You woke up at just the right time; come out and walk around with me."

Upon hearing this, a flash of joy appears in Little Chick's large eyes.

Having slept for such a long time, it feels like its body is about to rust.

It was just afraid that after waking up, it would encounter its master playing those boring games that waste time.

Fortunately.

The timing of its awakening seems just right.

……

"Junior?"

Wang Jianqiang has just left his Residence Space.

A voice suddenly rings out from the side.

Wang Jianqiang turns his head to look, and a familiar figure immediately enters his view.

"Senior Linge, you are..."

"Just got back?"

Wang Jianqiang calmly sizes up Linge.

This Linge is beautiful, with a slim waist and long legs, and fair, tender skin; everything about her is good.

It is just that she is not very filial.

His gaze pauses on her chest for a moment, and he secretly sighs with regret in his heart.

Linge does not notice Wang Jianqiang's gaze, nor does she know Wang Jianqiang's thoughts.

At this moment.

Her heart is filled with excitement.

"Junior, I didn't expect you to be able to refine Perfect Pills."

Hearing Linge's words filled with reverence, Wang Jianqiang is stunned, then becomes thoughtful.

Could it be...

Have the cultivators in Wenxian City who were reluctant to leave because of him returned?

Just as Wang Jianqiang is secretly guessing in his heart.

Linge's next words confirm his guess, "Junior, in order to support Wenxian City before, many students from the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace entered the Outer Realm Battlefield."

"After the war outside Wenxian City ended, only a very small portion of these people returned."

"It wasn't until five days ago that the others returned one after another."

"The news that you can refine Perfect Pills was brought back by them."

"Now, your name has spread throughout the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace."

"Many people want to beg for your help with Alchemy."

Speaking of this, Linge cannot help but sigh with emotion, "Jing and I both thought that you, Junior, should have gone to the Newcomer Secret Realm like other New Students; I didn't expect you to have entered the Outer Realm Battlefield and made such a great name for yourself."

Hearing Linge's words, Wang Jianqiang smiles, "Just empty fame, not worth mentioning."

Upon hearing this, Linge immediately shakes her head, "This is not empty fame; your pills played a decisive role in the great battle to defend Wenxian City, this is a solid, tangible merit."

Wang Jianqiang smiles.

"Wang has just returned to the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace and needs to walk around to familiarize myself with the environment, so I won't chat with you any longer, Senior."

"Farewell."

After speaking, he walks toward the distance.

Watching Wang Jianqiang's departing back, Linge's red lips part, but in the end, she does not make a sound.

……

Every student who can enter the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace is a heaven-gifted prodigy.

But even among prodigies, there are levels.

Just like right now.

Wang Jianqiang fully experiences the joy of being a Top-tier Prodigy.

Walking in the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

Everywhere he passes, everyone he meets enthusiastically steps forward, trying their best to leave a good impression on him.

Some female students with abundant assets even frequently unleash their ultimate techniques.

It leaves him dazzled.

Originally, Wang Jianqiang had intended to stroll for only half a day, but after feeling the enthusiasm of the many senior sisters and senior brothers, he acted in the spirit of unity and friendship.

Wang Jianqiang changed his mind on the spot.

He strolled for a full day, arrived at the entrance of the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, and only then, still feeling unsatisfied, decided to return to his residence.

Just as Wang Jianqiang turned around, preparing to head back.

A figure walked in from outside the main gate.

Upon seeing Wang Jianqiang, their expression immediately turned cold, "It's you, you piece of trash!"

Hearing the voice from behind him, Wang Jianqiang paused, looked back, and then a warm smile spread across his face, "So it is you, Senior Brother."

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

The person who arrived was none other than the idiot who had previously tried to woo Mu Lingxi and had been played in circles by her.

According to Lingxi, his name seemed to be Feng Yichen.

Wang Jianqiang's polite and enthusiastic demeanor left Feng Yichen somewhat at a loss.

He was clearly putting on an aggressive, accusatory front.

Could this bastard not tell?

His expression froze, and then his heart grew even more furious.

This piece of trash must be doing it on purpose.

Just like that day.

That day, after the conflict with Mu Lingxi and this person, he had specifically replayed the events in his mind after returning.

He discovered.

This bastard was not wronged in the slightest.

Although this bastard had not said anything excessive to him on the surface.

In reality, he had been secretly cooperating with Mu Lingxi.

This bastard and Mu Lingxi had purely treated him as a part of the "play" between them!

And he had even pretended to be innocent afterward.

What was even more heartbreaking was that he had actually been fooled!

Come to think of it, this bastard was even more hateful than Mu Lingxi!

Because he had previously accepted a mission, he needed to leave the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace in a hurry.

Therefore.

After the conflict with those two, he had left the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace to go on his mission.

He hadn't expected it to be such a coincidence.

Just after returning, he had run into this bastard.

He looked at Wang Jianqiang coldly and said in a chilling voice, "You hypocritical bastard, I want to face you in the Life and Death Arena!"

A look of innocence appeared on Wang Jianqiang's face, "Senior Brother, there is no grudge or enmity between us; why would I want to face you in the Life and Death Arena?"

"Hmph, spare me that act." Feng Yichen sneered, "Do you really think I can't guess what you were thinking back then? You still dare to play innocent in front of me?"

"That day, you were deliberately cooperating with that bitch Mu Lingxi to join her in humiliating me."

Upon hearing this, the look of innocence on Wang Jianqiang's face grew even thicker, "Senior Brother, you have truly misunderstood. I, Wang, have always been united, friendly, and kind-hearted; how could I do such a thing?"

"Hmph, you don't need to pretend anymore; I will not be fooled again." Feng Yichen's expression was icy.

Wang Jianqiang sighed, "It seems Senior Brother has a deep misunderstanding of me."

Feng Yichen scoffed, "Enough nonsense, just tell me whether or not you dare to face me in the Life and Death Arena?"

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "Senior Brother, you and I have no grudges, so I will not face you in the Life and Death Arena."

"So, you don't dare?"

Feng Yichen sneered and continued, "In that case, I guarantee that within three days, the news that you are a coward who fears death and dares not enter the Life and Death Arena will spread throughout the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace."

"Although competition among Great Wilderness Immortal Palace Students is fierce, they value collective honor highly; if your reputation as a coward spreads, let's see how you continue to get by in the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace."
