Just now on the battlefield, I heard him reporting his name while he was hunting and killing members of the Demon Race…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once everyone had confirmed Sun Yixiao’s identity, their eyes subconsciously shifted towards Lin Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen actually knows the Saint of Thieves?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Lin Chen’s embarrassed expression, as if he wanted to cover his face, it seemed they were quite familiar?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he verbally addressed him as Senior, there was not a hint of the sort of respectful reverence you’d expect towards a Quasi-Saint; instead, he was very casual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kong Wenlong suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart, glad he had come to his senses quickly; otherwise, if something had really happened, he feared he would have been doomed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Lin Chen was not some background-less nobody but someone who had connections with a Quasi-Saint and even the protection of a Hall Master!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would dare to bully him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, luckily!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lin Chen also felt somewhat embarrassed, but seeing Sun Yixiao’s undisguised warm tone, joy welled up in his heart from reuniting after such a long separation, and he said with a laugh, “It’s been decades; I had to make some progress, right? Otherwise, going onto the battlefield would’ve just been asking for death.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao laughed heartily, “What’s your current strength?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen answered frankly, “Middle-Grade Great Luo Celestial Immortal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao’s eyes suddenly widened, he cried out in astonishment, “You’ve advanced too quickly, haven’t you? The last time I saw you, you had just newly ascended to Da Luo. How many years have passed, and you’ve become a Middle-Grade Great Luo Celestial Immortal?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen chuckled, “I had some good luck, came across some opportunities, earned some merits here, gained some rewards from the Hall Master, so it was a bit quicker.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao curiously asked, “Rewards from the Hall Master? What did he reward you with, and why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heavenly Immortal Lotus Seed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said frankly, “I was on an errand in the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain, encountered the Demon Race, and luckily disrupted their big teleportation plan…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re that lucky kid!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao’s expression turned odd, “I knew about this, but I never imagined the lucky kid was you. What were you doing running off to the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen naturally couldn’t say he was dealing with Taoist Duan Tian’s affairs and had to respond, “I was visiting a Senior who had helped me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao asked curiously, “Who?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not wanting to expose True Person Tai Xu, Lin Chen diverted the topic, “Senior, why don’t you come over to my place and sit for a while, and we can talk slowly?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao came back to his senses, muttered tactlessly, “All secretive and evasive, let’s go!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Lin Chen and Sun Yixiao left, a large group of onlookers seemed to be petrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao’s manner towards Lin Chen was not at all like that of a Senior towards a junior generation. It was more like two friends reuniting after a long time apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did Lin Chen manage to interact with a Quasi-Saint on such an equal footing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each Quasi-Saint is a leader in their own right, a Top Stream of the Immortal Realm. Naturally, they have high standards, and how could an ordinary person catch their eye?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget interacting on equal terms, it’s not easy for others even to get a glance from them. After all, ordinary immortals are like ants in their eyes. Would you carefully observe a single ant in a swarm on the roadside?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you would, then that one must be different from the rest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had just mentioned Lin Chen’s trip to the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain. Lin Chen said he was visiting a Senior, and it seemed he didn’t want to disclose it openly or let our group overhear it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe this person is also a significant and formidable Big Shot, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, why not just say it outright, especially when it’s a Quasi-Saint who is asking?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Lin Chen’s background is profound and incomprehensible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone exchanged glances, seeing that thoughtful look in each other’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally thinking Lin Chen was just a lucky, insignificant nobody who had accomplished a feat by chance, now it seemed Lin Chen was in fact a major pillar to hold onto!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might not be very formidable now, but his methods and his backing are formidable indeed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Ming and Chen Chong exchanged glances, both feeling a bit relieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had spoken ill of Lin Chen quite a bit, and both of them now shared a sentiment similar to Kong Wenlong’s at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, luckily!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the tent, Lin Chen casually cast the Sound-isolation Technique, then invited Sun Yixiao to sit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao slumped into the chair, grumbling, “All secretive and hidden, what’s there you can’t speak of?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said with a laugh, “I just didn’t want to cause trouble for others by letting words slip out; besides, I’m not the kind of person who bullies others with his status. There’s no need for that. You see, I’m so familiar with my Seniors, but I never go around boasting about it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao snorted, “Even if you did talk about it, it wouldn’t be of much use. If you get into trouble, I might not necessarily help you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen chuckled, “Why would I need Senior to step in for me? Just saying I’m an age-defying friend and a friend of the Saint of Thieves, who would dare to bully me then? They would have to think long and hard, right? After all, nobody wants to provoke Senior, am I right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen flattered Sun Yixiao, who nodded his head in approval, then quickly regained his composure and glared, “They’re all afraid of attracting the attention of a thief, aren’t they?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said with a laugh, “Indeed, thieves are fearsome, but saints are even more terrifying. How many Quasi-Saints are there in The World?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao’s mood softened, “You sure know how to talk, kid. Now tell me, who did you visit?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen smiled slightly, “True Person Tai Xu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sun Yixiao’s smile froze suddenly, he sat up a little straighter, “You know True Person Tai Xu?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1082,"2026-06-06T01:52:52.801Z",1,"novelbin.me","85be925dba1ee15311280b5c186fee3184a5f0e4cb1df370e4074920f237378e","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-2970","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-2968",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
