Heaven-defying Emperor Zun

Inside the alchemist guild, it was extremely lively and full of voices.

"I scored 59 points in this test, which is only a little short of passing! I will definitely pass the test next time!"

"Hey, it's really bad luck. It's been three years and I can't even pass the exam. Is your alchemist guild playing tricks? You didn't want me to pass on purpose?"

Xiao Chen saw that there were many people in the wide hall, some of them looked to be about the same age as Xiao Chen, and some looked to be 70 or [-] years old with gray hair, and they took part in the assessment like those young people.

"Even an old man in his 70s and [-]s came to participate in the assessment?"

Xiao Chen was surprised, he thought only teenagers would participate in the assessment.

"This is the alchemy test. If you pass the test, you will be prosperous for the rest of your life. Who would give up such an opportunity easily?"

Jin Lingxue at the side rolled her eyes and said angrily.

The alchemy examination in the cultivation world is no less important than the imperial examinations in the mortal world, because it can change a person's fate, and it is an opportunity for the bottom people to leap over the dragon's gate.

"Although alchemists have a high status, it is a pity that most people will hardly succeed even if they spend their entire lives."

Jin Lingxue shook her head slightly again.

Alchemy is a field that requires a lot of talent, and it doesn't mean that your hard work and persistence will be effective.

The so-called seven points are destined, and three points depend on hard work. Only those with excellent spiritual talents have the opportunity to become alchemists.

"Wow, there are beauties."

The appearance of Jin Lingxue has attracted the astonishing gaze of many people.

Her facial features are exquisite, and her skin is as delicate as snow.

The long golden hair spread out, giving it an exotic charm.

There is no doubt that this is a beautiful woman with an angel face, which is fatal to men.

Jin Lingxue took those surprises for granted, and walked with Xiao Chen casually.

Because the two got too close, many people stared at Xiao Chen jealously.

The jealous gaze was like a stab in the back, making Xiao Chen feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, he couldn't help smiling wryly: "Pretty girls are all troubled by beauty."

"C'mon, Miss Ben is pretty, do you want me to draw a few lines on my face to pretend to be ugly?"

Jin Lingxue didn't take it seriously, stroking her long hair, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, that touch of girlishness made people feel fascinated.

Suddenly, there was a loud laugh from the crowd:

"Miss Xueer, you are here too, long time no see."

Xiao Chen turned his head, and saw a handsome young man walking towards him.

This young man was wearing a blue long gown studded with jewels, and a long knife with a cold light on his waist. There was a rare sapphire inlaid on the handle of the knife.

"Master Zhou is here!"

In the hall, many people were in awe of the blue-shirted youth.

This young man in blue shirt is the young master of the Zhou family, Zhou Wushuang.

It is rumored that the Zhou family has two great talents, namely the eldest son Zhou Wushuang and the second son Zhou Lingjian.

The second son, Zhou Lingjian, is quite mysterious, and not many people have seen him.

But the eldest son Zhou Wushuang is more famous.

This person is both martial arts and soul cultivator. He is only in his 20s, and he has already cultivated to the seventh level of the Vein Opening Realm. He is very powerful, and he hopes to break through the Foundation Establishment before the age of 30.

Because of this, Zhou Wushuang is the prince charming of many girls in Qingyang City.

Seeing Jin Lingxue, Zhou Wushuang was full of enthusiasm, ran over in small steps, and greeted Jin Lingxue.

Jin Lingxue seemed to dislike it, and hummed softly:

"Zhou Wushuang, I hate those men buzzing around like flies, you'd better not become that kind of person."

The disgusted eyes made Zhou Wushuang's handsome face slightly distorted.

He wanted to get angry but didn't dare to, he knew that Jin Lingxue came from an extraordinary background, even the young master of the Fang family didn't dare to provoke Jin Lingxue.

At this time, Zhou Wushuang noticed Xiao Chen beside Jin Lingxue, his eyes flashed with hostility:

"Who are you? Could it be Miss Xueer's friend?"

Zhou Wushuang has long admired Jin Lingxue, although Jin Lingxue ignored him, but this did not prevent him from regarding Jin Lingxue as a taboo.

But now, Jin Lingxue was getting very close to Xiao Chen, which made him very unhappy.

Suddenly, a cold laughter came from the crowd:

"Brother Zhou, you don't know, the person in front of you is Xiao Chen, who is well-known in the Xiao family."

"Xiao Chen?"

Zhou Wushuang was puzzled, feeling that the name was both familiar and unfamiliar.

"It's the illegitimate son of the Xiao family. His mother was originally one of the three beauties in Qingyang City, but she eloped with a wild man and gave birth to him."

The crowd dispersed and saw a young man in purple walking over.

This young man in purple has a handsome face. Although he can't compare with Zhou Wushuang, he can still be regarded as a handsome man. Seeing this handsome young man, Xiao Chen's face darkened slightly, and a cold light shone in his eyes:

"Fang Ziming!"

Sensing Xiao Chen's cold gaze, Fang Ziming cupped his hands again and again:

"Oh! It turns out that brother Xiao doesn't like to mention his background in front of outsiders. I'm really sorry. I almost forgot that you are just an unrecognized bastard and trash in the Xiao family."

Fang Ziming seemed to be apologizing, but in reality he was humiliating Xiao Chen.

Many people scoffed when they learned of Xiao Chen's origin.

A look of contempt also flashed across Zhou Wushuang's face: "So it's that trash from the Xiao family! Who am I?"

"Xiao Chen, you, a waste of the Xiao family, also come to the alchemist guild? Could it be that you want to test alchemists?"

Fang Ziming sneered, amplifying his voice on purpose, for fear that others would not hear him.

"I'm a waste, so what are you who was stepped on by me a few days ago?"

Xiao Chen glanced at Fang Ziming, and a hint of sarcasm curled up on the corner of his mouth.

Hearing this, Fang Ziming's expression froze.

"What? The young master of the Fang family was trampled underfoot?"

The people around were puzzled.

At this time, Xiao Chen was rasping his throat, and his voice spread: "Not long ago, this young master of the Fang family was looking for trouble. He came to Xiao's house to compete with me, but he was beaten and carried out by me with a bruised nose and a swollen face."

"Oh! I remembered. I remember that the front family did invite a pharmacist a few days ago to heal the wounds of a young master of the Fang family. I didn't expect it to be Fang Ziming."

After Xiao Chen's reminder, everyone in the alchemy guild knew about it.

Immediately, everyone looked at Fang Ziming with strange eyes.

Xiao Chen is a well-known trash in Qingyang City, but Fang Ziming is actually Xiao Chen's defeated general, isn't Fang Ziming too good?

The strange eyes around made Fang Ziming look embarrassed. He originally wanted to humiliate Xiao Chen, but ended up being embarrassed himself.

Jin Lingxue on the side covered her mouth with a chuckle: "I thought the young master of the Fang family was some kind of powerful figure, but it turned out to be just a silver-like wax spear head."

Being ridiculed by Jin Lingxue, Fang Ziming wanted to find a crack in the ground and get in.

Zhou Wushuang was a little angry, he looked at Xiao Chen, and said coldly:

"Boy, brother Fang is my friend, how dare you humiliate him!"

"He was the one who made fun of himself first, and he can't blame me. Besides, I'm just telling the truth."

Xiao Chen shrugged.

"I don't care what your reason is, immediately kneel down and apologize to Brother Fang, otherwise this matter will never end!"

Zhou Wushuang snorted coldly.
