The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron-Chapter 500 - : I Don’t Bully Others, But Others Bully Me

Chapter 500: Chapter 500: I Don’t Bully Others, But Others Bully Me

“If you, Qin Tianchuan, are able to come, so am I, Gongsun Xiao,” Gongsun Xiao said icily.

The robed youth named Qin Tianchuan flashed a faint smile, then turned his attention to Fang Lin, saying with a smirk, “Is this your servant? He seems pretty dim-witted.”

Fang Lin remained expressionless, whereas Gongsun Xiao frowned and retorted, “Qin Tianchuan, watch your mouth. He’s my invited friend who’s also participating in the Crown Prince’s talent banquet.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Tianchuan’s face revealed surprise. He insolently sized up Fang Lin and then scornfully sneered, “Gongsun Xiao, you always like to associate with misfits, and even bring them here. Not only are you now a laughing stock, but you’re also lowering the standards of this talent banquet.”

Gongsun Xiao was furious, “Watch your tongue, Qin. Don’t blame me if I lose my temper.”

Qin Tianchuan showed no fear, “So? Do you want to fight me here? I was just telling it like it is. Your friend choices, Gongsun Xiao, really are deplorable.”

Just as Gongsun Xiao was about to confront Qin Tianchuan, Fang Lin held him back. With a smile, he said, “Let it be. If a dog barks at a person, it would be beneath us to bicker with the dog.”

At these words, Qin Tianchuan’s face darkened instantly, and his eyes, full of murderous intent, fixed on Fang Lin.

Gongsun Xiao was equally surprised, not expecting Fang Lin, who had remained silent up till now, to directly call Qin Tianchuan a dog.

“Kid, I will give you a chance. Kneel before me and knock your head on the ground. Then, let me break your limbs and I will spare your life.” Qin Tianchuan’s voice was infused with icy detachment, as if there was no room for Fang Lin to refuse.

Fang Lin nonchalantly shrugged, “Sorry, I decline.”

At this point, the commotion had attracted the attention of many people who started gathering around.

“What’s going on?”

“It looks like Qin Tianchuan and Gongsun Xiao are at it again.”

“No, it’s that guy brought by Gongsun Xiao.”

“His name is Fang Lin, right?”

“A talented individual from the Lower Three Kingdoms, somehow ingratiated himself with Gongsun Xiao.”

“Now, things are getting interesting. Fang Lin actually dared to call Qin Tianchuan a dog.”

“Even though Qin Tianchuan is indeed not a good person, no one has ever openly called him a dog.”

“Fang Lin is going to be in deep trouble. He has no idea of his status.”

····

People were discussing amongst themselves, full of surprise at Fang Lin’s audacity as well as expressing some sympathy towards him.

What kind of a person was Qin Tianchuan? He was the talented disciple of the mighty Five Elements Sect of Xuan Country, and the junior of an Elder of the Five Elements Sect. Regardless of his own strength or the power of his backer, he was extremely hard to mess with. Even Gongsun Xiao, who had bad blood with Qin Tianchuan, rarely had such aggressive confrontations with him.

Yet, this Fang Lin, a bumpkin from the Lower Three Kingdoms, had the audacity to insult Qin Tianchuan outright? Was he courting death?

Many people were eagerly awaiting the drama to unfold. Given Qin Tianchuan’s personality, he was likely to take Fang Lin to task.

Many of them were more than happy to witness such a scene. Recently, the name Fang Lin had provoked a great deal of resentment amongst the prodigies of Xuan Country. How talented could a genius from the Lower Three Kingdoms be?

At this moment, many among them were expecting Qin Tianchuan to thoroughly crush Fang Lin and make this country bumpkin understand that he was nothing in Xuan Country and had no right to call himself a genius.

“Qin Tianchuan, are you forcing me into a confrontation with you?” Gongsun Xiao advanced a step and said in an icy tone.

With a glowering look at Gongsun Xiao, Qin Tianchuan pointed at Fang Lin and said, “He must take responsibility for his words and actions. You, Gongsun Xiao, can stick up for him if you like, by prostrating yourself in his place.”

“You’ve gone too far!” Gongsun Xiao retorted in fury. His aura flared dramatically, his every move emitting an aura of infinite majesty, like that of a blazing sun.

Many people were surprised. As expected of the rare genius from the Gongsun Family, he had cultivated his family’s unique skills to an impressive level.

Qin Tianchuan, however, didn’t back down. The aura of the Five Elements enveloped him, making him appear godlike, with a volatile and sharp aura.

The two young prodigies seemed on the brink of engaging in a battle.

“Brother Gongsun, let me handle this.” Just then, Fang Lin spoke up.

While Fang Lin could have chosen to hide behind Gongsun Xiao and let him deal with Qin Tianchuan, doing so would make him look even more shameful.

“Alas, I can’t afford to be low-key anymore. I’m minding my own business, but people still want to pick on me. What kind of world is this?” While talking, Fang Lin moved to stand in front of Gongsun Xiao.

Gongsun Xiao furrowed his brows and said, “Brother Fang Lin, you should step back. I can handle this Qin Tianchuan.”

Qin Tianchuan snorted dismissively, “Since you’re asking for death, I’ll oblige.”

With that, he made his move against Fang Lin. His opening move was a fierce killing stroke, manifesting a longsword from the golden aura in his hands.

With a snort, Fang Lin punched out. His fist charged ahead, extremely daunting, the white dots of light on it carrying immense power.

Bang!!!

The smirk on Qin Tianchuan’s face froze, and he took several steps backward, a wave of discomfort stirring in his body and his face shadowed over.

Meanwhile, Fang Lin was standing steady on his original spot, having thrown the punch, a lazy expression on his face.

“Did I just see that? Qin Tianchuan was repelled by his punch?”

“How is this possible? Qin Tianchuan is at a disadvantage?”

“This Fang Lin is surprisingly strong!”

“Qin Tianchuan must have underestimated him.”

···

Many in the crowd were shocked, finding it difficult to believe what they were seeing.

The perception of some towards Fang Lin changed instantly, thinking that he truly was capable of holding the title of the number one genius of the Lower Three Kingdoms. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Gongsun Xiao was equally surprised. He recognized Fang Lin’s skill and that was why he chose to befriend him, but he had never imagined Fang Lin was this powerful. Underneath a single punch, he had suppressed Qin Tianchuan, who had almost exerted full power.

Even he would have trouble accomplishing such a feat.

“Qin Tianchuan, what’s the matter? Has your strength receded due to your indulgence in women?” Lu Yunfei laughed heartily, making Qin Tianchuan want to spit blood. You, Lu Yunfei, who always mingles around with women, have the gall to say that I indulge in women?

“Very well, you’re worthy of me going all out.” Qin Tianchuan gnashed his teeth, the murderous look in his eyes growing more intense. He had been humiliated terribly and had now decided to take Fang Lin’s life.

Fang Lin gave a yawn, seemingly very tired. His casual attitude infuriated Qin Tianchuan even more.

“Hehe, how lively.” Just then, a figure emerged from the mansion, accompanied by hearty laughter.

When people saw him, they all showed a look of awe.
