The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 957: Chapter 951: Flame Pond

From the moment he entered the reception hall, Long Hentian hadn’t noticed Lin Tian’s presence.

It was only now that he realized there was someone else sitting here.

Shu Zihui, who had brought Long Hentian here, was left speechless.

Thinking of Lin Tian’s identity, his heart was filled with urgency, wiping sweat from his forehead, preparing to introduce him.

However, Lin Tian waved his hand, not wanting to waste words, interrupted Shu Zihui, and said to Long Hentian: ”My name is Lin Bei, I’m a friend of Shu Zihui! Your Cold Mountain Valley uses young girls as stoves for cultivation, and one of them you brought back from the East Sea is my friend! Bring her out, and if she’s willing, I’ll turn around and leave! If she’s not willing... Cold Mountain Valley better be prepared to quell my fury!”

Standing nearby was Wu Jiu.

Originally, he wanted to explain Lin Tian’s identity to Long Hentian.

But now, hearing Lin Tian’s words, he understood that Senior Lin was already simmering with anger.

If anything goes wrong, Cold Mountain Valley might face a major crisis.

At this level, Wu Jiu, merely an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, was left speechless.

He could only remain silent, sighing inwardly.

With Long Hentian’s temperament, Lin Tian’s words were sure to provoke rage.

Primarily, upon hearing a young supreme would appear from Southern Continent, even younger than himself, Long Hentian scoffed outright, not believing at all.

Under such circumstances, even if Wu Jiu came out to persuade, he wouldn’t succeed and thus preferred to stay out of it.

The current Cold Mountain Valley was already under the sway of the Long Family.

Indeed.

Long Hentian’s face first turned cold, then he became enraged and laughed: ”You’re here to threaten me at Cold Mountain Valley? You truly have guts, truly know where to find places! Although I don’t know which sect you belong to, but with Brother Long Teng here, you dare say such things, aren’t you disregarding Dragon Cry City?”

These words directly tied Cold Mountain Valley and Dragon Cry City together.

Without understanding Lin Tian’s origin, he didn’t speak conclusively but instead gave Lin Tian a warning.

At the same time, he turned to look at Shu Zihui, narrowing his eyes: ”Junior Brother Shu, who is this friend of yours?”

”Young Sect Master... this...”

Shu Zihui glanced at Lin Tian, his face showing some helplessness; he also wanted to persuade Long Hentian but finally said instead: ”He’s my sister’s friend... also... also a cultivator. It seems...”

”No sect, no faction!”

Lin Tian glanced at Shu Zihui, speaking to supplement, then continued: ”Where is the person?”

”Oh, no sect, no faction? You’re quite bold!”

Long Hentian exhaled slightly, thinking Lin Tian was just a loose cultivator, without background or origin, which meant nothing, how high could cultivation be at such a young age?

”Is Liu Nai’er your woman? That makes it more interesting! I love using things belonging to others! If you’re not afraid, follow along, she’s in the Cold Flame Pond!”

Turning back with a sneer, Long Hentian no longer paid attention to Lin Tian and walked out of the hall, leading Long Teng and others.

Lin Tian’s lips subtly curled, his expression remained calm, and he followed along.

If he hadn’t seen Liu Nai’er, just from Long Hentian’s words, he would have instantly killed him.

Long Hentian and that Long Teng were merely at the peak of Qi Refining Ninth Level, in their twenties; although not the top talent in Earth’s many cultivation sects, their talent was not bad.

Yet, in Lin Tian’s eyes, such characters were existences that could be wiped out with a flick, weak as ants!

For now, he was too lazy to pay attention to their clamor.

”Mr. Lin, this...”

The urgent Wu Jiu approached quickly from behind, speaking with a troubled expression.

”If the person is unharmed, everything is negotiable!”

Lin Tian shook his head slightly, interrupting Wu Jiu, and said in a deep voice.

Soon.

The group arrived behind the Cold Mountain Valley’s mountain gate.

There was a huge cluster of ancient buildings.

Surrounded by black marble walls, seven or eight meters high, making it unable to see inside, looking very solemn.

As they approached, a faint chill began to permeate between the air, icy to the bone.

Just clearing that towering wall-enclosed building cluster, Lin Tian’s Divine Sense had already spread out.

But to his surprise, the Divine Sense encountered obstruction; it was laid with an array.

Yet it couldn’t block Lin Tian’s powerful Divine Sense.

He could see inside clearly.

Inside were ancient pavilions, rockery flowing water, all arranged in River South garden style.

Except in the middle of this building cluster, there was a cold pond with flames rising.

No mistake!

Flames blazing, emitting chill, it’s the cold pond!

Such circumstances were astonishing!

The flames rose several meters, the pond emitted chill, icy cold—this imagery was incredibly unusual!

Especially, amidst those flames, there were many ice flowers blooming, white mist encircled them.

Sanfu Flower!

Seeing the ice flowers clearly, Lin Tian recognized them instantly.

Previously, at Cold Valley City’s Cold Valley Scenic Spot, Lin Tian had seen them while traveling with Zhu Ting’er.

It’s likely the true place of origin for these Sanfu Flowers is here at the Flame Pond!

Simultaneously, Lin Tian noticed a plant among the Sanfu Flowers was tall as a person, glowing black, with black petals, covered in black breaths that seemed like poison, looking scary.

Beside the Flame Pond, three people were sitting.

A middle-aged man, similar in appearance to Long Hentian by seven or eight parts, possessing Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivation, seemed like Long Hentian’s father.

Nearby, there was an old man with white beard and hair; he vaguely resembled Long Hentian’s father and son, likely Long Hentian’s grandfather. His cultivation was quite profound, surprisingly a Fake Core Realm cultivator!

At this moment.

The two were sitting cross-legged on the sides, and between them was a man shrouded in a black robe, face unseen.

But Lin Tian sensed this man’s cultivation.

Golden Core Early Stage!

This was a Golden Core Great Cultivator!

In front of this man was a pill furnace, seemingly refining elixirs.

However, Lin Tian just glanced and then moved his Divine Sense, subsequently enveloping the entire building complex.

To his relief, he found Liu Nai’er in one of the rooms inside.

The little girl was together with her uncle Liu Nianguang and aunt Chai Xingzhu, while the latter two were talking endlessly, seemingly persuading her.

Lin Tian checked Liu Nai’er and found she was intact, finally exhaling in relief, his expression somewhat eased.

As for what Liu Nai’er’s uncle and aunt were saying, he wasn’t concerned.

Instead, in other rooms, Lin Tian saw several girls, some with pale faces, showing terror, others extremely excited, eager to try.

”Brother Long Teng, please wait here; I’ll go in and inform my grandfather and others!”

Approaching the gate of the wall, Long Hentian stopped, turned to Long Teng and others, and courteously bowed.

”Alright!”

Long Teng nodded slightly, pausing.

Long Hentian turned back to glance at Lin Tian, saw the latter had followed, curled his mouth, showing a cold smile, then gently opened the gate and stepped inside.
