Hearing this, Ling Shi's face immediately turned green, and he felt so ashamed that he couldn't face anyone.
"Hahaha."
Everyone laughed. Compared to Wu Chen, Ling Shi was simply weak, like a clown.
"Humph, this guy deserves what he got."
Yun Shishi snorted coldly. She didn't have any good feelings towards this guy Ling Shi at all.
"let's go."
Wu Chen did not attack Ling Shi too much. He did not take this guy seriously at all.
The news about this Alchemist Conference spread quickly and caused a sensation.
"Is this Alchemist Conference over?"
"It's over, why, you didn't know?"
"I just heard from someone else."
"I heard it from others. Didn't you go and see it yourself?"
"I was delayed by something and couldn't go. Did you go to see it?"
"What are you doing? You don't even want to watch the Alchemist Conference. This is such a wonderful event."
"I can't do anything about it. Something urgent has happened. Who will be the champion of this Alchemist Conference?"
"Who else could it be? Wu Chen."
"Wu Chen, why does this name sound so familiar?"
"Haha, your feeling is not wrong. You do know this name, but you know it in a different way."
"Oh, who is this person?"
"Guess what."
"Guess? How can I guess that?"
"Haha, you should be able to guess it. The clue is two words: Heavenly Monument."
"The Heavenly Monument? There is indeed a person named Wu Chen on the Heavenly Monument. He is ranked 75th on the Heavenly Monument and is one of the young giants. You can't be talking about him, right?"
"Yes, that's him."
"Are you kidding me? I admit that he is amazing in cultivation, but how can I believe that he won the Alchemist Conference Championship?"
"Believe it or not, he is the champion this time. Not only is he incredibly talented in cultivation, he is also incredibly strong in alchemy. He is terrifyingly strong."
"Hiss, is this still a human?"
"hehe."
"Tell me more about it."
"Okay, listen carefully."
People in the streets, alleys, restaurants and inns were talking about the Alchemist Conference.
"Haha, Wu Chen, you are very famous now. Almost everyone knows you." Xia Youlan teased.
Wu Chen shrugged and said, "When has my fame ever been smaller?"
Xia Youlan smiled. That’s right. This guy would cause a huge disturbance wherever he went, whether it was in the Black Dragon Empire or the White Tiger Empire.
Yun Shishi said: "Wu Chen, I just heard a good thing, guess what it is?"
"What?"
Yun Shishi said: "I heard that Ling Shi was killed."
"Ling Shi was killed. When did it happen?"
Wu Chen was a little surprised. Although Ling Shi was arrogant, he had a good talent in alchemy. If he could change his personality, he might become a master in the alchemy world in the future.
Yun Shishi said, “I don’t know. I heard from others that his body was found in an alley. I don’t know who did it.”
“What a pity.”
Yun Shishi curled her lips and said, "What's so pitiful about this guy? He is arrogant, ignorant and foolish. In my opinion, he must have offended someone he shouldn't have offended, so he was killed."
She didn't have the slightest favorable impression towards Ling Shi. When she thought of what happened at the Alchemist Conference a few days ago, she gnashed her teeth in hatred. She had never met such a disgusting person before.
Wu Chen shrugged without commenting. Indeed, with Ling Shi's personality, it was easy for him to offend people. Since the person was already dead, he didn't care.
"I heard from Grandpa and the others that they are planning to go back to Beichenyuan. Wu Chen, do you want to go back with us?"
Wu Chen frowned and shook his head: "I don't want to go back yet, Zhongzhou is pretty good."
With his current strength, he would not have much room for improvement if he returned to Beichen Academy or Dongxuan Territory. However, it was different in Zhongzhou. The land of Zhongzhou was full of various opportunities. As long as he could seize some of them, his strength would improve by leaps and bounds.
"Aren't you going back?"
Yun Shishi seemed a little disappointed when she heard Wu Chen say that he would not go back. She was an alchemist and her purpose of coming to the White Tiger Empire was for the Alchemist Conference. Now that the Alchemist Conference was over, she naturally wanted to go back with her grandfather and the others. However, Wu Chen would not go back, which meant that they would be separated again. After this separation, she didn't know when they would see each other again.
"Shunyan, Senior Sister Youlan, what about you? Do you want to go back?" Wu Chen asked Shunyan and the others.
"us?"
The two looked at each other, and Xia Youlan asked, "Junior sister, do you want to go back?"
Shunyan shook his head: "I'm not going back."
Although Zhongzhou is an unfamiliar place full of dangers, there are also various opportunities along with the crises. He has been in Zhongzhou for only a few months, but he has mastered the sword light flying technique and broke through the dragon transformation realm. All these were unimaginable in Beichen Academy, so she decided to stay in Zhongzhou and follow Wu Chen to explore the world and not go back for the time being.
Xia Youlan said: "Since you, Junior Sister, are not going back, then it would be so boring for me to go back alone."
Yun Shishi opened her eyes wide: "Aren't you guys going back?"
Xia Youlan nodded: "We should stay in Zhongzhou and continue to practice and cultivate to enhance our cultivation and strength."
Xia Youlan was very clear about her own qualifications. Without any luck, it would be very difficult for her to break through to the Dragon Transformation Realm. Perhaps she would never be able to break through in her entire life and would be stuck in the Star Realm.
"Why."
Yun Shishi sighed. She was an alchemist, and her main job was to make pills. She was not like Wu Chen and the others, who mainly focused on spiritual practice. If they wanted to grow as alchemists, they needed to consume a lot of resources. Without the support of Beichenyuan, it would be difficult for them to maintain the consumption they needed. Therefore, she had to go back to Beichenyuan and be with her grandfather and the others.
"Wu Chen."
Just then, a voice came from outside. The four of them looked up and were a little surprised, because the person who came was the eighth prince Ye Wushang.
"Eighth Prince, why are you here? Is there something wrong with the ancestor's illness?"
Wu Chen went to meet him. In his opinion, it was very likely that the royal ancestor was ill and asked him to come to the palace for treatment.
However, this time he guessed wrong.
