Legend of Reborn Alchemist

0Zhu Ziqiao bit her lips but firmly said, "Master, I must go out for a while and ask for your permission."    

    

"You..."    

    

A flash of anger flashed across Shui Hui's eyes and she immediately suppressed it and asked in a deep voice, "Are you going to find that kid called Lin Cheng?"    

    

Zhu Ziqiao shook her head and said, "No. Master, I have other things to do."    

    

Shui Hui slightly frowned and looked suspiciously at Zhu Ziqiao. Then she said, "Ziqiao, Master can see that there is a relationship between you and that kid called Lin Cheng. Master did not want to stop you but you have just become his disciple. There are still a lot of things that need to be done, as well as items that need to be received. No matter how anxious you are, you can't go out today. "    

    

"But..."    

    

"Master promised you that after today, Master will give you one day's time to find Lin Cheng. " Shui Hui did not wait for Zhu Ziqiao to speak and said again.    

    

Zhu Ziqiao was stunned and a little unbelievable. She then asked happily, "Master, is what you said true?"    

    

Shui Hui scolded with a smile, "You lass, does Master need to lie to you?"    

    

Zhu Ziqiao immediately heaved a sigh of relief and could not help but say, "Master, thank you for understanding me."    

    

"You little girl, for a brat, you even have to contradict Master. If I don't agree to you, I think I won't be able to keep this disciple of yours, right?" Shui Hui pretended to be angry and said.    

    

"Master..."    

    

Zhu Ziqiao stuck out her tongue and her face turned slightly red but she did not know what to say.    

    

In fact, from the moment she followed Shui Hui, Zhu Ziqiao had already made a decision in her heart. If Shui Hui stopped her and Lin Cheng's matter, she would rather leave Dongzhou College.    

    

Although Zhu Ziqiao was only seventeen years old, she was extremely smart. Naturally, she could see that Shui Hui did not like Lin Cheng. If Lin Cheng also passed the examination and joined Dongzhou College... That wouldn't be a big deal, but Lin Cheng hadn't passed the examination yet. After the deadline for the examination had passed, he would leave the Dongzhou College. It wouldn't be easy for her to meet Lin Cheng again at that time.    

    

Therefore, Zhu Ziqiao had made up her mind. Although increasing her strength was extremely important to her, if she separated from Lin Cheng, or even became a stranger, she would not agree to it no matter what.    

    

She wanted to go out this time because she wanted to find Lin Cheng and tell him her decision.    

    

However, she never thought that Shui Hui would be so open-minded and directly agree. Moreover, she did not show any signs of opposing her relationship with Lin Cheng. This made her heave a long sigh of relief.    

    

"Little girl, Master has also come from your age. Naturally, he understands the relationship between you and Lin Cheng."    

    

Shui Hui looked at Zhu Ziqiao's happy and somewhat shy look and a cold glint flashed across her eyes. But her face carried a gentle smile as she said, "But you should know that your aptitude is extraordinary. That kid called Lin Cheng is only a mediocre person and the two of you are destined to not be able to reach the end. I believe that Lin Cheng is also clear about this. So, if I'm not wrong... Even if you go and find him, he will certainly leave you on his own accord. "    

    

Zhu Ziqiao's pretty face changed when she heard this, but she quickly shook her head and said firmly, "Master, although I haven't known Lin Cheng for a long time, I can tell that he will definitely not do this."    

    

Thinking of that little thief, Zhu Ziqiao couldn't help but frown. That little thief definitely wouldn't be as inferior as her master had said. That guy was really full of himself.    

    

"Master didn't say that Lin Cheng would feel inferior and think that he wasn't good enough for you. It was because if he really had feelings for you, he would take the initiative to leave you."    

    

Seeing the smile on Zhu Ziqiao's face, the depths of Shui Hui's eyes became even more sinister.    

    

She said again, "Girl, perhaps you do not understand. Your spiritual affinity is dark blue. What exactly does this mean? As long as nothing unexpected happens, you will very likely step into the Immortal Dao in the future. If Lin Cheng is really doing this for your own good... He will naturally take the initiative to leave, or else, he will be with you. It will only be a burden to you, and it might even ruin your future path. "    

    

Zhu Ziqiao heard this and shook her head slightly but did not say anything else.    

    

She firmly believed in her heart that Lin Cheng would definitely not harm her.    

    

Furthermore, she had never thought of stepping into the Immortal Dao, much less becoming a Giant. She only wanted to step into the Core Sea Stage and investigate that matter. After that, she would be with Lin Cheng, and that was enough.    

    

However, it was not appropriate to mention these words to Shui Hui. Although the two of them were master and disciple, Zhu Ziqiao was still somewhat restrained in front of Shui Hui. Furthermore, she knew very well that if Shui Hui knew that she had no ambition, she would definitely not be happy.    

    

Therefore, Zhu Ziqiao buried this thought in her heart and did not say it out loud.    

    

She only thought that when she found Lin Cheng tomorrow, she would tell Lin Cheng clearly and let him know her determination.    

    

If it was before this, Zhu Ziqiao would definitely be embarrassed to speak, but now the situation was different. Not only did she join the Dongzhou College, but she also took an elder as her master. However, Lin Cheng did not pass the test, which made her somewhat flustered.    

    

Because she knew that improving one's strength was definitely not something that could be done overnight. She was going to cultivate in the Dongzhou College for a long time, but she did not know where Lin Cheng should go.    

    

She decided to find an opportunity to tell Shui Hui that Lin Cheng was an alchemist. She hoped that she could let Lin Cheng join the Dongzhou College.    

    

She believed that as long as Shui Hui was willing to give Lin Cheng an opportunity to prove herself, Lin Cheng would definitely be able to join Dongzhou College.    

    

Zhu Ziqiao did not notice that deep within Shui Hui's gentle smile, her eyes were somewhat cold.    

    

Lin Cheng left the Inner Academy.    

    

Shui Hui's gaze that was filled with killing intent made him realize that this woman really wanted to kill him.    

    

Lin Cheng was fearless in his heart, but he would not foolishly send himself to his death. Furthermore, he had already seen Zhu Ziqiao take Shui Hui as her master. There was nothing for him to worry about, so he decided to leave first.    

    

Even though Shui Hui regarded him as an ant and could kill him as she pleased, however, Lin Cheng had to admit that Shui Hui's strength was indeed terrifying. A Core Sea Stage had already stepped into the ranks of the cultivator. To the Cultivating Warrior... This was a qualitative leap. Countless people would never be able to cross this heavenly chasm in their lives!    

    

Zhu Ziqiao acknowledged Shui Hui as her master. Just by looking at how much Shui Hui attached importance to her, one could imagine how far Zhu Ziqiao would grow in the future.    

    

The heavier Shui Hui's killing intent towards him, the more it showed that Zhu Ziqiao's talent was extraordinary!    

    

Hence, Lin Cheng was not worried that Shui Hui would treat Zhu Ziqiao badly. But before leaving, he still had one more thing to do.    

    

"Hmm?"    

    

Suddenly, Lin Cheng frowned slightly. He suddenly had a kind of palpitating feeling, as if a poisonous snake was staring at him from behind.    

    

Lin Cheng immediately realized that there was someone following and monitoring him from behind!    

    

He was secretly shocked, but he did not turn around. His footsteps did not even change, and he continued to walk forward as if he did not notice anything.    

    

Lin Cheng gave up on the idea of leaving Dongzhou College. When he arrived at the outer court, he saw the exam sites that were filled with people. His heart stirred. Immediately, he pretended to be watching a show and walked over quickly. He squeezed himself into the crowd, and then pretended to be watching a show. He looked back at the crowd.    

    

He immediately noticed that not far behind him, a middle-aged servant was staring at him with a cold gaze.    

    

Lin Cheng's heart could not help but sink. The servant's gaze was extremely fierce. Although Lin Cheng only glanced at him once, their eyes did not meet. However, he could tell that the servant's strength was definitely not low. Judging from the bright light in his eyes, he was afraid that the servant was at least a Chakra Stage warrior.    

    

Dongzhou College was worthy of being the number one academy in Dongzhou. Even a servant had such strength!    

0

    

Lin Cheng's brain spun quickly. He thought to himself, I don't know why this servant would target me. Furthermore, looking at that sharp gaze, it was obvious that there was some hostility towards him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have felt like he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.    

    

Shui Hui!    

    

Lin Cheng immediately thought of Zhu Ziqiao's master, the Seventh Elder Shui Hui. In Dongzhou College, only she had a reason to attack him.    

    

"I didn't expect that she would come so quickly!"    

    

Lin Cheng sneered in his heart and thought to himself, "It seems that this girl's talent is even higher than I imagined!"    

    

To be able to make Shui Hui so impatient to attack him, it could be seen that Zhu Ziqiao's talent was absolutely shocking. This made Lin Cheng not know whether he should cry or laugh.    

    

Zhu Ziqiao's talent was amazing and she was especially valued by Shui Hui. Lin Cheng was naturally happy for her in his heart.    

    

However, Shui Hui, this woman, actually wanted to attack him because of Zhu Ziqiao's extraordinary talent. She treated him like an ant and this made Lin Cheng unhappy.    

    

When the servant saw Lin Cheng squeezed into the crowd and then disappear, he was stunned and quickly walked forward. But when he arrived in front of the crowd, there was no trace of Lin Cheng.    

    

The servant's face immediately darkened. He did not expect that. I can't believe I lost him by following a puny Body-refining Stage Cultivating Warrior. Thinking of the task given to him by the Seventh Elder, he gritted his teeth. He went straight to the academy's main gate. The academy did not allow outsiders to be present at night. Unless it was an esteemed guest of the academy.    

    

Therefore, Lin Cheng definitely had to go out. As long as he went to the gate to wait, he would definitely be able to block Lin Cheng.    

    

At the same time.    

    

Lin Cheng had already left the examination point. Furthermore, he had no intention of leaving now. Instead, he turned around and headed towards the direction of the inner courtyard.    

    

He wanted to find Zhu Ziqiao again.    

    

Because he already understood that if he did not find Zhu Ziqiao as soon as possible, he was afraid that there would be no more chances in the future. Shui Hui had already started to make a move on him.    

    

"Little thief!"    

    

Seeing Lin Cheng, Zhu Ziqiao's eyes suddenly lit up. There was an unconcealable joy on her face as she quickly ran over, "Little thief, didn't you leave? Why are you here?"    

    

When Lin Cheng heard the nickname 'little thief', he immediately glared at her. When he saw her happy expression, he couldn't help but laugh, "Little girl, I'm here to tell you that I want to leave for a period of time."    

    

"Little thief, where are you going?"    

    

Zhu Ziqiao immediately asked anxiously, "Don't worry, I will immediately go back and beg Master to give you another chance. As long as you can prove that you are an alchemist..."    

    

Lin Cheng shook his head, "It's useless. Little girl, since the examination in Dongzhou College is based on the affinity of the spiritual energy, it means that if the affinity of the spiritual energy is too low, there is nothing Dongzhou College can do about it."
