My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 891 - 889: The Mysterious Old Man

The Black Alliance has no interest in the Alchemy Furnace, but the Celestial Pill Sect is looking to trouble Mo Jing recently. It’s evident this old fellow is waiting for his Divine Cauldron; he must be from the Celestial Pill Sect.

"Are you from the Celestial Pill Sect?" Chen Tianlong probed.

"You’re quite smart," Madman Li said indifferently. This person was the Fourth Elder of the Celestial Pill Sect, Li Changfeng, known as Madman Li.

Of course, regardless of this identity or his true identity, he would not tell Chen Tianlong. Even though Chen Tianlong, in his eyes, was just a dying man, he couldn’t casually disclose secrets of the Celestial Pill Sect...

"However, many smart people have short lives." Madman Li did not answer Chen Tianlong’s question but said, "Hand over the good stuff on you, and I’ll leave you a whole corpse."

"Everyone can talk big. If you want what I have, beat me first," Chen Tianlong said, though lacking confidence. Back in the battle against Fang Dali, he felt a lot of pressure. If not for the Flying Shoes to escape, he would have been finished long ago, not to mention a Celestial Dao Five Stars expert.

Moreover, the person before him, Chen Tianlong felt, was definitely a tough character!

"Beat you? Even a Profound Dao Two Stars expert dares to say that in front of me? Really overestimating yourself." Madman Li looked at Chen Tianlong with some disdain. "Hand over your possessions honestly, and I promise your woman stays alive!"

Madman Li also got a clear look at Wu Mengting and could determine that she wasn’t the person they were searching for back then but just someone who resembled her. However, despite this, she was definitely connected to that person somehow, so Madman Li couldn’t make decisions himself and had to take her back to the Celestial Pill Sect for the leaders to decide...

"If that’s the case... then you can die, old man!" Chen Tianlong said, launching a Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist Fourth Form.

"Boom!"

A thunderous explosion sounded from Madman Li’s chest, followed by Chen Tianlong throwing the Soul-Stealing Three Needles, aiming at Madman Li’s chest!

Since this guy appeared before him, Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but fight him, so as soon as Chen Tianlong made a move, it was a killing blow, leaving no reservations.

Escaping, Chen Tianlong certainly couldn’t outrun a Celestial Dao expert. No matter how skillful Chen Tianlong’s techniques were, they weren’t the match for such an expert. Against someone like Madman Li, Chen Tianlong had no confidence!

Especially with Wu Mengting by his side, Chen Tianlong had no way to escape alone, so he could only confront Madman Li!

Madman Li never expected that an expert of Chen Tianlong’s caliber would dare to initiate an attack against a Celestial Dao Five Stars expert, which shocked and angered him!

While the attack from someone of Chen Tianlong’s strength wouldn’t cause much damage to him, he was still very angry. It was a sign of Chen Tianlong’s contempt!

Previously, Madman Li did not take Chen Tianlong seriously, not even bothering to activate his Heart Method. But seeing Chen Tianlong’s Soul-Stealing Three Needles, he felt a bit fearful; after all, it was the famous trick of that ruthless man from over a decade ago and not to be underestimated.

However, by the time Madman Li activated his Inner Power Heart Method and used Powerful Qi to guard his body, it was already a bit late. He was still injured by Chen Tianlong, albeit lightly, but for Madman Li, it was an utter insult!

Madman Li’s face was filled with venomous resentment and anger, his crimson eyes fixed on Chen Tianlong. His chest, struck by Chen Tianlong’s attack, was surging with blood and Qi. He had to cycle his Heart Method to calm it down.

He snarled, "Good, very good! Kid, I underestimated you. You managed to unleash such a powerful Martial Technique? If I’m not mistaken, this move is from that old immortal Yan Nanfei, isn’t it?"

"Hmph!"

Chen Tianlong also did not expect that his full-force strike only caused Madman Li’s blood and Qi to surge. In just an instant, Madman Li was back to normal, which left Chen Tianlong feeling quite dejected. He... was still too weak!

In the Mortal Realm, he could be considered very heaven-defying, winning all battles, which inflated Chen Tianlong’s confidence to an extreme. But in the cultivation world, he kept facing setbacks.

First Fang Datong, now running into this heaven-defying old man, truly unlucky.

"Whether you say anything or not doesn’t matter, I don’t want to know your secrets."

Madman Li said calmly, "I have to admit, among the younger generation, you have some skills, but dying at my hands, you’re not wronged. Even if you’re a favored disciple of the Ancient Sect, you’re not wronged!"

"Why are you unscathed? My move just now was delivered when you hadn’t activated your Heart Method, meaning you didn’t have Powerful Qi guarding you, just like any ordinary person with a strong body. How could you remain unharmed?"

This was what puzzled Chen Tianlong the most.

Previously, when he faced opponents of a higher level, as long as the ambush was done properly, he could still inflict a certain degree of harm. But this person here seemed to be unaffected.

"You really want to know?"

Madman Li chuckled softly, "It’s okay to tell you, let you die knowing. Your move has power and momentum, but your true strength isn’t there. You’ve elevated it using some trick, but the force of your Powerful Qi is far inferior! It’ll work against ordinary Tunnel experts, but against me, you’re just unlucky!"

After hearing Madman Li’s words, Chen Tianlong’s expression instantly shifted. He hadn’t expected things to develop to this extent!

This was Chen Tianlong’s most difficult and troublesome battle yet.

Before the fight even properly started, Chen Tianlong began to feel the urge to retreat. The opponent was simply too strong. If Madman Li’s words were true, Chen Tianlong wouldn’t even have the chance to escape.

"Sigh! Since you’re so confident, how about taking five moves from me? If you can withstand five moves, I’ll give you the stuff, and you can do as you please!"

Chen Tianlong hesitated for a moment, saying somewhat unwillingly.

Chen Tianlong’s proposal made Madman Li pause! He hadn’t expected Chen Tianlong to make such a strange request at this time.

Although in his view, Chen Tianlong wasn’t anything remarkable, taking the lives of Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting would be as easy as turning the hand. But he was wary that they might escape separately!

If the woman fled, he would certainly pursue her. However, if Chen Tianlong fled, there would be some uncertainty. If Chen Tianlong truly was Yan Nanfei’s disciple, a successful escape could have repercussions for them.

Though the Celestial Pill Sect was powerful, they didn’t want to go against well-known experts like Yan Nanfei and others.

With this thought, Madman Li slowly nodded and said, "Alright, then I’ll take five moves, how about that?"

"Good, then I’m going to attack!"

Chen Tianlong felt a bit relieved, beginning to compress the Powerful Qi Bomb, a technique he recently saw in his aunt’s medical notes. It’s said that by compressing Powerful Qi, a small Energy Ball could be formed and focused to deliver a massive attack to the enemy.
