16: Playing hard to get, betting on Xiao Dong's death!

Walking to the outer hall of the Begonia Pavilion, Jiang Lin reunited with Shangguan Yaoyao and Jiang Liu.

This time, he wouldn't confront Xiao Dong head-on; he would just slip away.

Just as he cupped his fists to bid farewell, his eyes caught sight of the Millennium Soul-Soothing Incense on the censer in the center of Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion!

A plan suddenly materialized in his mind.

This time, Xiao Dong's Alchemy would elevate his Alchemy attainment to the Great Master level.

Everything depended on Medicine Immortal, Duan Tianya!

If Duan Tianya were to fall into a deep sleep, would he have a chance to directly eliminate Xiao Dong?

Currently, the opponent only had one Golden Finger left among his three: the cultivation Dao field, the Chaos Pearl.

Moreover, this place belonged to the Royal Secret Realm, so Xiao Zhan's remnants should not be able to enter.

The right time, the right place, and also... the right people!

There was a complete opportunity to directly kill the opponent!

As for the person using the Soul-Soothing Incense, it naturally couldn't be him.

Xiao Dong would definitely be on guard against him the entire time.

The best person for the job was this emperor's most beloved princess, Long Xiyue!

Looking at Long Xiyue's loli face and devilish figure, Jiang Lin directly said, "Princess Long Xiyue, I'm just a commoner and don't understand Alchemy, so I won't join the fun!"

This was a trick to catch her, letting Long Xiyue take the bait herself.

"Alright, alright, hurry up and leave!"

Long Xiyue waved her hand impatiently, dismissing Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin smiled at the corner of his mouth and walked out with Shangguan Yaoyao and Jiang Liu.

After taking two steps, he spoke, "Tsk, is this the Royal Family's most intelligent princess?"

"She's being fooled by a disguised fellow, what's there to be proud of!"

"Going to watch a rigged show, who's intelligence is being insulted?"

"Heaven and Earth Alchemy Flow, how ridiculous..."

Long Xiyue, who hadn't walked far, suddenly turned her head.

"Jiang Lin, what did you say?"

Jiang Lin turned back, curling his lip, "Nothing!"

After speaking, he continued walking out.

"Do you know Great Master Yue Shang's background?"

"I don't know, I don't understand!"

Jiang Lin kept walking.

Seeing this, Long Xiyue stomped her foot in anger and directly pulled out a Dragon Head Token.

"Jiang Lin, heed my command! I order you to tell me what you know!"

Damn it!

Yellow Dragon Token!

Seeing the token is like seeing the Saint!

My sister, this girl is playing such a big card right off the bat!

However, this is exactly what I wanted.

Jiang Lin seemed startled and hurriedly said, "I've seen Yue Shang perform Alchemy, and he actually relies on ancient remnant souls to do it!"

"Without the remnant soul's boost, he's nothing!"

Long Xiyue's face turned crimson with anger: "Impossible, I've seen Yue Shang refine Qi Nourishing Pills, and he definitely doesn't rely on so-called remnant soul methods for Alchemy!"

Jiang Lin raised his head, feigning defiance, "How about we make a bet? You wait a moment, and at the critical moment, crush this Soul-Soothing Incense, and see if Yue Shang can successfully refine it!"

Long Xiyue said impolitely, "What are we betting?"

"If you win, I'll give you a top-grade Spiritual Artifact!"

"And if you win?"

"I was conned by Yue Shang once. If I win, I want you to take Yue Shang's life. It shouldn't be hard for you to kill someone in your Royal Secret Realm, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Shangguan Yaoyao on the side gasped sharply.

As expected of a tyrant!

He treats human lives like grass!

Damn it, if I didn't need to build up my favorability, I would have sent him to his death directly!

On the other side, Long Xiyue didn't believe Xiao Dong was deceiving her.

She thought this Jiang Lin was deliberately here to cause trouble and make fun of her.

If she didn't take the bet, he would look down on her, and it would also confirm the fact that Great Master Yue was cheating.

So she took the bet with him!

Let's see if you'll feel heartbroken when you lose a top-grade Spiritual Artifact!

If Yue Shang is really a fake,

If he dares to deceive me, he deserves to die!

"Good, I'll take your bet!"

With that, Long Xiyue directly took the Soul-Soothing Incense and put it into her sleeve.

Then, she turned and walked towards the central flower area.

Jiang Lin put his arm around Shangguan Yaoyao and whispered in her ear, "Good Yao'er, come with this young master to expose the true face of that fake Alchemy Great Master!"

Shangguan Yaoyao suppressed her disgust, clung to Jiang Lin, and walked towards Xiao Dong's direction.

In the center of Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion, the Hundred Flowers Area.

"With your shabby appearance, do you even recognize all these flowers? And you want to refine Hundred Flower Pills?"

"I really don't know what methods you used to get Princess Long Xiyue to bring you to such a core Hundred Flowers Area!"

"Yes, don't make a fool of yourself, if you damage any Spiritual Flower here, nine of your lives won't be enough to pay for it!"

"I'm telling you, if you dare to waste my time with Princess Long Xiyue again, I won't let you off easy!"

Listening to the mocking voices not far away, Jiang Lin closed his eyes and knew what was happening.

Liu Ziyang of the Liu Family, one of the Four Great Families, was provoking Xiao Dong.

Later, under the guidance of Medicine Immortal Duan Tianya, Xiao Dong would miraculously refine a furnace of top-grade Hundred Fragrance Pills.

The fragrance would connect with the entire Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion formation, and the formation spirit would directly bestow upon him a "Hundred Flowers Contending for Beauty Painting," which contained Heaven-Grade Cultivation Technique.

This action would make Liu Ziyang lose all face and make Long Xiyue fall for him.

"Brother Jiang, this is Mr. Yue Shang, whom we just spoke of!"

Long Xiyue smiled, introducing Xiao Dong to Jiang Lin.

Her attitude was extremely intimate and charming, making the people around them green with envy.

"I heard, Brother Jiang, that you were taught by Consort Ziyi in your early years, so your Dao of Alchemy must be extraordinary. Can you help me see what kind of person Mr. Yue is?"

????

Listening to Long Xiyue's sweet inquiry, Liu Ziyang gritted his teeth, daring not to speak his anger!

Jiang Lin was the number one tyrant in the capital; he couldn't afford to provoke him!

His status as a concubine's son was nothing in Jiang Lin's eyes!

In the crowd, Xiao Dong narrowed his eyes as soon as he saw Jiang Lin, his hatred soaring to the heavens.

The destruction of the kunlun mirror, the humiliation of the annulled engagement and being slapped, the grudge of being poisoned and severely injured...

All were still vivid in his mind.

He wished he could go up and devour Jiang Lin's flesh and blood right now.

Unfortunately, they were currently in the Royal Secret Realm, and he dared not act rashly.

At this moment, Jiang Lin knew,

This girl wants to use a borrowed knife to kill, planning to make these two hate me to death, right?

I won't fall for your trick!

Until Xiao Dong fell to the ground, unless there was a special circumstance, he would not openly provoke the other party.

"This Mr. Yue is clearly no ordinary person; he has a profound demeanor and must be a talented and extraordinary individual!"

After speaking, he glanced at Liu Ziyang again, completely ignoring him.

Just a small fry!

The only one he feared was the unreasonable Child of Destiny, Xiao Dong.

Other than that, he was still the Jiang Family's Young Master who feared nothing!

Whether it was Bloodline, background, or strength, truly few among his peers could contend with him!

Xiao Dong, disguised as Yue Shang, turned his head, completely ignoring Jiang Lin.

He secretly spat in his heart, thinking what a hypocritical villain he was, pretending to be graceful in front of a beautiful woman, but in reality, his methods were despicable, bullying men and women behind their backs, committing all sorts of evil.

It seemed Princess Long Xiyue had also been deceived by him.

It was truly unforgivable; his false facade must be exposed!

At this moment, Long Xiyue was already fuming internally.

Hypocritical, Jiang Lin is truly hypocritical!

Just now he questioned Great Master Yue's identity, and now he's blowing smoke!

Hmph, you chickened out, didn't you!

Later, obediently hand over the top-grade Spiritual Artifact!

That's what you get for being arrogant just now!

I almost fell for your trick!

Truly detestable!

"Mr. Yue, I know your Alchemy skills are incredibly superb, why don't we start refining the Hundred Flower Pills now?"

Xiao Dong glanced at Jiang Lin and Liu Ziyang:

"Princess Long Xiyue, this Heaven and Earth Alchemy is a serious matter, it's best for some petty individuals to stay away!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ziyang instantly flared up.

Just now, he dared not speak due to Jiang Lin's fierce presence.

You, what are you, daring to scold me?

"What did you say, you surnamed Yue, you're looking for death..."

Before he finished speaking, Long Xiyue directly reprimanded Liu Ziyang: "Enough! Mr. Yue was invited by me with a great sum of money. Listen to him first. You and your people retreat ten meters!"

Liu Ziyang was stunned, looking at the sneer on Xiao Dong's lips.

He gritted his teeth: "Good boy, you're finished!"

With that, he led his people to a nearby pavilion.

"I'll also retreat a few steps, so as not to disturb Great Master Yue's Alchemy!"

"Hmph, at least you're sensible. If you dare to interfere, I will definitely not let my Imperial Father let you off!"
