Chapter 216: Lin Yan Frightened by Zi Yan
Everyone was utterly dumbfounded by this bizarre scene.
Eating pills by the handful?!
Is she even human?!
Oh, wait… Zi Yan isn't human.
But Wu Tian is even more outrageous.
Sure, he's not human either, but he can casually refine these pills as if it's nothing.
Is that even possible?!
What about the dignity of alchemists across the Dou Qi Continent?!
While everyone was still stunned, Wu Tian and Zi Yan continued their shameless exchange.
"Annoying Big Brother, how can you steal my candy?!" Zi Yan pouted in anger.
Wu Tian flicked her forehead lightly and said, "Little Zi Yan, these are my candies. How is that considered stealing?"
"Hmph! I'm not little! I'm only this size because you keep rubbing my head, which is stunting my growth!" Zi Yan tilted her head and huffed.
Wu Tian chuckled, "Alright, don't be mad. I'll refine a few hundred more for you later…"
Zi Yan put her hands on her little waist and declared, "A few hundred? That's not enough! I want thousands, tens of thousands, an unlimited supply! From now on, you must refine pills for me endlessly!"
Everyone's eyes widened.
Wait… what does this sound like?!
Could this be considered a weird way of confessing?!
Wu Tian had no choice but to rub Zi Yan's little head again and say, "Fine, I'll keep refining them for you…"
Just then, someone rushed inside.
"Report! Alliance Leader, there's someone outside specifically asking to see the boss!"
Wu Tian frowned.
Who came looking for him?
"Man or woman?"
Xun'er and Hu Jia asked in unison.
Wu Tian: …
"Uh… a man!" The messenger replied.
"Good!"
Wu Tian's mouth twitched.
All he did was bring back a little girl, and they were already this sensitive?!
Seriously, why isn't Han Yue the one looking for me?!
"Let's go see who it is!"
With his hands behind his back, Wu Tian walked toward the entrance of the Ri Yan Alliance.
When he saw the visitor, he was surprised.
Lin Yan?!
Didn't I already beat him up?
What's he doing here?
Looking for another beating?!
The moment Lin Yan saw Wu Tian, an overwhelming aura filled with rage erupted from his body.
The violent energy surged outward, causing all the surrounding students to stagger back in fear.
"That's Lin Yan, the madman! What's he doing here?!"
"He has the worst temper in the entire Inner Academy. Why else would he come? He's obviously here to challenge the boss!"
"Lin Yan is ranked in the top 30 of the Strong Ranking. At this rate, he might break into the top 10 soon!"
"This time, the boss has a real opponent. If he wins, our Ri Yan Alliance's reputation will be cemented!"
"I heard the boss pushed through six floors of the Qi Refining Tower. Lin Yan trains on the sixth floor, so he must have suffered at the boss's hands and is now here to settle the score!"
"Huh? That makes sense! So he's here for another beating!"
"Boss is awesome! Boss is invincible!"
Hearing this chatter, Lin Yan's face twisted with rage.
His anger surged, and his gaze burned with fury as he locked onto Wu Tian.
A chilling voice escaped his lips.
"I've finally found you!"
"Last time in the sixth floor, I wasn't ready. Wu Tian, come! This time, let's have a proper fight!"
Wu Tian grinned slightly.
"Heh, sounds good. I've been itching for a fight too."
Lin Yan's smirk widened.
This Wu Tian guy…
He actually has the aura of a true powerhouse.
Unlike those other weaklings, he doesn't back down!
This time, he had to go all out and win!
A terrifying energy exploded from Lin Yan's body.
His fist sliced through the air like a whirlwind, leaving behind a red tinged afterimage.
At the same time, his entire figure turned into a red shadow, streaking straight toward Wu Tian's face!
Despite Lin Yan's fierce attack, Wu Tian's expression remained calm.
His dark eyes locked onto Lin Yan's flushed face, and then…
Wu Tian suddenly smiled a strange, "kind" smile.
Lin Yan's mind went blank for a second.
Wait… why is he smiling like that?
Something's not right!
Even though he felt suspicious, Lin Yan didn't hesitate.
His fist continued toward Wu Tian's face.
However…
Just before his punch landed, Wu Tian reached behind him and pulled something out of thin air.
The next moment…
Lin Yan's face turned pale.
"OH SHT! OH SHT!"
Lin Yan immediately stopped his punch and yanked his arm back as fast as he could.
His energy vanished completely, and the rage on his face transformed into utter terror.
His body froze in place, and after a brief moment, he stumbled backward more than ten steps!
"You… Why are you here?!"
Lin Yan's horrified voice rang out.
Everyone around them was confused.
Why was Lin Yan so terrified of this little violet haired girl?
At that moment, Zi Yan was just eating another "candy bean".
Pouting, she turned her head to glare at Wu Tian.
"Annoying Big Brother, how could you use me as a shield?!"
Wu Tian grinned and said, "Well, it's best not to fight if we don't have to. Besides, with you here, he's behaving much better, isn't he?"
"Hmph! Fine, I'll let it slide since you refine pills for me. But can you put me down now? This is uncomfortable!" Zi Yan pouted.
Wu Tian let go of her, causing her to drop to the ground.
"Hmph! You just let go without warning? You're so rude! How do those girls even like you?!"
"Next time, don't carry me like that! Even if you bribe me with candy, I won't forgive you!"
Wu Tian chuckled.
Zi Yan's big, bright eyes scanned the crowd before finally locking onto Lin Yan, who was still frozen in place.
Lin Yan instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
Oh no. I'm doomed. I'm going to get beaten up again!
Zi Yan frowned unhappily.
"Why are you shouting so loudly? Do you want a beating?!"
Everyone watching was stunned beyond belief.
Lin Yan, one of the top 30 in the Strong Ranking, a future top 10 contender…
Is terrified of this little girl?!
Who is she?!
How is she so terrifying?!
Even the older students looked shocked.
Most of them had never seen Zi Yan before because she was rarely spotted in the Inner Academy.
To them, Zi Yan was more of a myth a legendary existence.
Only those who had personally experienced her fists knew the truth…
This adorable little girl… was actually the fearsome "Muscle Queen" of the Inner Academy!
