chapter 287: i am ling han translator: reverie_ editor: kurisu
martial arts and alchemy were the sameâthey were about spending a long time to advance, aiming for the peak.
moreover, alchemy had no way of speeding up the process.
there were spirit medicine and spirit fruits in the worldâeating a stalk or a piece could increase cultivation and turn one into a formidable cultivator over night. however, there definitely wasnât anything good like that that could make an alchemistâs techniques improve greatly in a matter of days.
even with the strange firesâ existence that only allowed alchemists at lower tiers to refine higher tier medicinal pills, one still needed enough understanding of alchemy to do so; they couldnât reach the sky in a single bound.
ling han wasnât twenty, but he was already a medium level black grade alchemist?
this was definitely a joke; if such a genius âs name didnât spread across the world, how could they have not heard of him?
âhmph, i almost got deceived by you, you actually dare pose as an alchemist. how dare you!â cheng fei jun said threateningly. his younger brother was captured and even had one of his arms severed earlier, making him extremely infuriated.
ling han laughed indifferently, pointed at his chest, and said, âopen your filthy eyes and look clearly, is this fake?â
f-filthy eyes?
everyoneâs mouth twitched, he actually dared to berate a high level black grade alchemist so; this guy was truly extremely daring.
âyoungster, hand over your alchemy master certification for inspection.â qian xing, one of the spiritual pedestal tier warriors, spoke to ling han. seaÊá´h thÑ nôvel(f)ire.nÑt website on google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
badges might be faked, but alchemy master certifications not. on top was complete information, which could be investigated and verified immediately.
cheng fei jun sneered, and said, âso what even if you are a medium level black grade alchemist, you still have to listen to my orders!â
âtsk, tsk, tsk!â ling han wiggled his finger and said, âwith which ear did you hear me say that iâm a medium level black grade alchemist? youâre an idiot as expected!â ignoring cheng fei jun who was already bursting with anger, he took out the third silver badge and placed in on his chest.
three silver badges, the same as cheng fei jun!
âimpossible!â
everyone said the same three words inside their minds. there definitely, definitely, definitely existed no such a young high level black grade alchemist.
âha!â cheng fei jun sneered, already not believing from the point when ling han took out the second silver badge.
âhuh!?â qian and yang, the two formidable spiritual pedestal tier cultivators, were startled momentarily, remembering someone all of a sudden.
âbullsh!t, you think wearing three silver badges can make you pass as a high level black grade alchemist?â the one who boot-licked cheng fei jun earlier immediately jumped out, pointing and shouting sharply at ling han.
ling han sighed and said, âhavenât i mentioned that i hate it the most when others point at me?â
âyoungster, youâre surnamed ling?â the spiritual pedestal tier warrior surnamed qian suddenly interjected.
âling!â cheng fei junâs expression immediately changed as he thought of someone. âling han, youâre ling han!â
his expression was filled with rage.
half a year ago, he advanced to high level black grade, creating the record in the desolate north. a thirty year old high level black grade alchemist put in a large place like the north region was extraordinary, and very few could surpass him.
however, his complacency was only maintained for several monthsâvery quickly, another young genius came out of nowhere, and became a high level black grade alchemist. moreover, the genius was younger than him, so much younger that he couldnât believe it.
seventeen!
at first, even several people in the star brilliance palace hall had doubts about the truth of the matter, let alone him. however, with fu yuan shenâs own handwritten letter and many medium level black grade alchemistsâ joint guarantee, people could only believe it.
from that point on, cheng fei jun hated ling han for stealing his glory; otherwise, he wouldâve had the glory of being the youngest high level black grade alchemist, and how dazzling would that be?
this detestable guy stole his limelight, and today, he ran to his territory, injuring his younger brother and trampling over his face in public?
he definitely wouldnât allow it!
âi am ling han.â ling han took out the crystal that could prove an alchemistâs status. origin power poured in and instantly formed a curtain of light that clearly wrote ling hanâs alchemy master level, when and where he broke through, as well as the witnesses at the time.
everyone cried out, because this happened only one or two months ago, and most people still didnât know of ling hanâs existence; they couldnât help but stare blankly at ling han.
too young, so young that people couldnât accept it!
cheng fei jun, a thirty year-old high level black grade alchemist, surprised people every time they saw him, sighing deeply for just how young he was, but what about ling han?
seventeen? eighteen?
my goodness!
âfirst, let go of my younger brother!â cheng fei jun said, clenching his teeth.
ling han laughed lightly, and said, âyou say let go and i do so, then what face do i have?
âling, han!â cheng fei junâs eyes burst with flames. âwhat exactly do you want?
at this moment, qian and yang, the two spiritual pedstal tier warriors, sat by and watched. whether it was ling han or cheng fei jun, both were high level black grade alchemists, they both had boundless prospects and were equal in status, so it wasnât worthwhile for them to offend either one.
ling han laughed. âyou finally asked about the main point. this guy has, well, obviously done countless terrible things, but i just arrived, so iâm not clear on just how terrible, nor do i have the effort to investigate. however, itâs the truth that this guy tried to kill me, yes, actually thinking of killing an alchemist. thatâs death penalty, iâm not wrong, right?â
âhmph, my younger brother didnât know your status, this crime could be forgiven!â cheng fei jun immediately said.
âyou say it can be forgiven, so itâs forgiven? itâs not like you were the one who was threatened by this scum!â ling han ridiculed. âno need to trouble the star defense force. this person conspired to kill an alchemist, i declare immediate execution!â
âyou dare! you dare!â cheng fei jun stamped his feet and said sternly, âling han, youâre going to make an eternal enemy out of me?â
âwho the hell are you?â ling han scorned, his expression full of disdain.
âyou, you dare insult me!â cheng fei jun was stamped with fury, the veins on his neck twitching. âi wonât lower myself to your level. hurry up and let go of my brother!â
ling han laughed loudly and said, âi discovered that you have quite the comical talent, but unfortunately, i donât appreciate it at all.â he shook his hand, and instantly, a long sword appeared from thin air. as a high level black grade alchemist, he was already unafraid of people knowing of him having a âspatial ring.â
âolder brother, save me! save me!â cheng kai fu immediately felt ling hanâs threatening killing intent and instantly waved his arms while screaming; however, his arm was jut reconnected, it couldnât withstand such intense movement, so with a pa , the arm instantly fell from his shoulder, fresh blood gushing out profusely.
pu , without hearing his cries in pain, ling han already struck, slicing open his neck.
blood gurgled inside cheng kai fuâs mouth as it spilled out violently, and he reached out towards cheng fei jun, but his arm only rose halfway before drooping weakly to the ground.
âbrother!â cheng fei jun shouted grimly, eyes bursting with flames. âling han, i swear one of us will die!â
âha!â ling han shrugged indifferently and said, âiâll make a bet that youâll kneel properly before me later and call me master ling.â
âbullsh!tâ cheng fei jun spat outâfor him to be humiliated as he kneeled before the one who killed his brother? impossible.
âhow about it, want to bet? if you win, iâll give you my strange fire, and conversely, you have to give your strange fire to me if i win.â ling han finally spoke of his true motive.
