Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 3913 - 3932: Recovery of Strength

Zhang Zhongjiu’s words made Lin Chen and the others suddenly moved.

Yes, as long as our group becomes stronger and can suppress the Lei Family and the He Family, wouldn’t things take a turn for the better?

Although if Lin Chen can return, he might directly bring the people he cares about to the Federation, but from the initial Human World, to the Barren Wilderness, to the Thunder Immortal Domain, to various high-ranked Immortal Realms, and finally to the Heavenly God Realm, Lin Chen has traveled a long way, forming many connections along the way.

As long as there’s a possibility, Lin Chen still hopes to save them.

Of course, if after all efforts they still fail, then Lin Chen would not feel regret or guilt.

After Zhang Zhongjiu left, Lin Chen immediately dialed Ning Xiuzhu’s phone.

"Lin Chen, I was just about to call you, do you already know?"

Lin Chen replied, "Zhang Zhongjiu just came to see us."

Ning Xiuzhu laughed, "My negotiations with Zhang Zhongjiu went smoothly; he’s helping with my current research. Once it succeeds, I’ll find him a position in the Science Council, helping him return to Planet 011."

"He’s agreed to release you. You and your wife should get ready. Once my expedition team is assembled, I’ll bring you back to your homeland."

"You can come find me later. I’ll first lift the energy shackles’ strength limit on you, restoring your combat power. Once you’ve completed the task and the research results are confirmed, I’ll grant you freedom."

Lin Chen sighed with relief, "Alright, we’re ready to set off anytime!"

Lin Chen hung up the phone, turned around and repeated what Ning Xiuzhu had said, making both Yao Xuanji and Lan Shuiying very excited.

Finally, they saw hope for regaining freedom.

They didn’t doubt Ning Xiuzhu because there was no need for him to lie to us.

If he didn’t want to, he could manipulate our lives, threatening us to help him with his matters.

"For now, let’s not tell Qingluan and the others."

Yao Xuanji and Lan Shuiying both nodded in agreement. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Lin Chen and Qingluan’s identities had changed several times, and now in the Federation, because of their captive status, they were back at the starting line. They initially traded their freedom to the Lei Family and He Family.

Their attitude towards Lin Chen was certainly not friendly, and if they had enough strength, they might try to get rid of Lin Chen and the others once they regained freedom, to avenge their grievances.

The two groups are once again standing on opposing sides, so some information should be kept hidden to prevent any unexpected mishaps.

Luo Wen, having received Zhang Zhongjiu’s notice, soon appeared before the three.

"You can leave at any time now."

Lin Chen nodded, "Good, we’ll leave right away."

Since they could leave, they naturally didn’t want to stay and serve as free labor. The three of them briefly packed up and left the base, heading straight to the Science Council.

Although their freedom wasn’t fully restored, regaining their strength was already a significant improvement.

Science Council.

Ning Xiuzhu operated on the light curtain, causing green radiance to flash on the black rings on their necks, before returning to calm.

Ning Xiuzhu smiled, "You’ve regained your strength, but the shackles can’t be removed for now. However, rest assured, as long as you fulfill our agreement, I will return your freedom."

Lin Chen asked, "Since the strength limit has been lifted, can we start cultivating as warriors now?"

"Naturally, yes."

Ning Xiuzhu laughed, "Your current strength is about at the Level 6, approaching Level 7 standard. I’m very curious to see to what level you can grow using the warrior cultivation method."

"I’ve confirmed that your Bone Refining Method is effective, but I also hope to gather data from your cultivation for reference."

"You all are Heaven Deities with unique attributes of your own. While warrior cultivation does not differentiate between attributes, warriors tend to choose techniques they are better able to manipulate, which often come with different energy conversion methods. In other words, while our cultivation methods differ, there are similarities in their manifestations."

Lin Chen has been in the Federation for some time now and has gained a good understanding of warrior cultivation methods.

Warrior cultivation is quite similar to Immortal cultivation, consisting of Cultivation Techniques and combat skills, where Cultivation Techniques enhance the total energy one can manipulate, while combat skills manifest energy in specific ways.

The energy in warrior cultivation is called Battle Energy, and different combat skills can convert this energy into various attributes with different effects.

"Don’t be in a hurry. Once you return, I’ll prepare a good Cultivation Technique for you and provide corresponding cultivation resources. In return, you’ll need to cooperate with my research so I can test various data on you."

"This isn’t coercion but a pre-agreement collaboration. What do you think?"

Lin Chen nodded without hesitation, "No problem, I’m willing to cooperate."

Ning Xiuzhu, a genius researcher at the Science Council, has quite a reputation. If he wants to study me, then the Cultivation Technique he prepares will certainly be extraordinary.

Since Ning Xiuzhu currently holds their freedom, Lin Chen naturally remained proactive, and even if they fully regained their freedom, fostering a good relationship with Ning Xiuzhu would be vastly beneficial.

Didn’t even the proud Zhang Zhongjiu lower his head without hesitation upon receiving Ning Xiuzhu’s promise?

"Alright!"

Ning Xiuzhu laughed, "You can stroll around the city now. While I still need some time for preparations, I’ll contact you once I’m ready."

"Good!"

Meanwhile, in the Purifier Production Base, Qingluan and others exchanged glances in shock.

"Have Lin Chen and the others left?"

"Where did they go?"

Luo Wen calmly replied, "I don’t know. Zhang Zhongjiu notified me they could leave, so I complied. As for the rest, I don’t know."

After Luo Wen left, Qingluan and the other three looked bewildered.

"Why did they suddenly leave? Did they get in touch with someone?"

Dugu Feng speculated, "All three of them are Heaven Deities with strong capabilities. Perhaps Zhang Zhongjiu needed their help, and since their Artifact Refining Talisman skills might be lacking, he transferred them somewhere else?"

Qingluan said solemnly, "Do you think they might have a chance to regain their freedom?"

The other three remained silent, showing some unease in their eyes.

Nangong Li gritted his teeth and said, "No matter where they went, we’re definitely at odds with them. Our top priority now is to increase our strength. Otherwise, if we run into them again in the future, we’ll be in big trouble!"
