Lin Chen could never reveal his true identity to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the way he worded his narrative was crucial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When he asked me to form a team, it felt off to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I had the same gut feeling about him as you did, thinking that he might harbor ill intentions towards me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I didn’t reveal my real strength to him; I only told him I was in the Triple Realm of Daluo Mysterious Immortal…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qiangwei’s face showed shocked expressions, although Lin Chen had not finished his story, she roughly had guessed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Dongxu was planning to harm Lin Chen, but Lin Chen’s strength was no less than his, so, invariably, Zuo Dongxu would be the one to falter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps he sought to kill Lin Chen, only to be killed by him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qiangwei’s look towards Lin Chen became quite peculiar, even a bit strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen noticed Lan Qiangwei’s expression, but he assumed she had deduced the remainder of the story, which is why she looked that way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he didn’t take it to heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had touched on the pretense about his strength, it was easier to continue the tale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen honestly recounted all that had happened, though he embellished the events slightly towards the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In his pursuit to kill me, he charged in, and I let him fall amidst the Crystal Scorpions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He burst out with his combat power, slaughtering frantically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the sheer number of Crystal Scorpions overwhelmed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suffered severe injuries and was chased relentlessly by several particularly formidable Crystal Scorpions until he vanished into the dark fog.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After he left, I came out and killed the remaining Crystal Scorpions, collected their tail stings, and then came here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Maduo did not wish to team up with me; after waiting for a long while and no one returned, he decided to go down into the Abyss to hunt Crystal Scorpions himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then you arrived.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qiangwei’s beautiful eyes fixated on Lin Chen, “If he was out to harm you, and your strength was no less than his, why didn’t you directly take him out?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You might be kind to others, but when you strike, you’re anything but merciful…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen spread his hands, “He is a genius from Gui Xu Sect, backed by Gui Xu Sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could plot against me because I’m a Loose Cultivator with no backing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if I had acted against him and he didn’t die and managed to escape, I’d have been doomed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For someone without a backing, I had only to endure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I were like you, with Li Hai Sect’s backing, even if he looked at me the wrong way and wanted to deal with me, he would need to think twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the Crystal Scorpions against him, if he lives, it’s his good fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he dies, it’s no concern of mine…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qiangwei looked into Lin Chen’s eyes and after a few seconds, smiled, “You are quite wicked, pretending to be a Daluo Mysterious Immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he knew the truth, he’d be furious enough to spit blood, dead or not.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen nodded, “That’s my guess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He prides himself on his cleverness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning how he was outwitted would indeed make for a priceless expression.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qiangwei softly smiled, withdrawing her gaze, “Haven’t seen you for half a year, have you learned it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen knew what she was asking and bowed solemnly, “I have learned, and I must thank Fairy Lan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, the chance to learn it would have been nearly impossible for me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qiangwei’s smile was bright, “Helping you was just a slight effort on my part, but you saved my life — a real and undeniable fact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life lost, everything’s lost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I am clear about gratitude and grudges.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re my benefactor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if others are against you and want to harm you, I will stand by your side instead of kicking you when you’re down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zuo Dongxu harmed you, actually because of me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For you, it was completely an undeserved misfortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he isn’t dead, I will certainly seek justice for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, even if you had personally killed him, it doesn’t matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a person deserves his fate as long as no one catches you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A clench ran through Lin Chen’s heart; Lan Qiangwei’s words hinted at deeper meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does it mean, even though others want to target me, deal with me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen wondered if he was being too sensitive, given that he indeed felt “guilt shaking his heart.” However, this was not something he could ask directly; the doubt had to remain buried within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, with Fairy Lan covering me, I really don have to be afraid of anyone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen joked with a laugh, then seriously added, “Speaking of which, Fairy Lan, the Island Master mentioned you’re two thousand points away from completing your mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How much more do you need?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lan Qiangwei replied, “I completed some tasks in the past half-year, and these days I’ve been hunting Crystal Scorpions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Together, I may have about eight hundred points.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, “I just picked up a great bargain below, got hold of more than a hundred tail stings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can round up the rest, and you’ll have your two thousand points.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Lin Chen secured more than a hundred tail stings, Lan Qiangwei was unphased and described with a smile, “Over a hundred, that’s quite a lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You really did pick up a major bargain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen chuckled, “And I have a certain friend to thank for that,” he teased.\u003C\u002Fp>",1020,"2026-06-06T01:52:42.117Z",1,"novelbin.me","4c42b417f6ff40906227db52599dca2b1a573a3a1e3f44fdc76c52ae163c9a8c","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-2767","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-2765",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
