Chapter 671

== Victory ==
Huo Wufang had refined an 8-ring Nine Revolution Life Pill.
But Long Chen had refined a 9-ring Nine Revolution Life Pill.
"Next time is the finals, and a Tower Ancestor (塔宗大人) will personally be supervising it. According to what I know, that Tower Ancestor doesn't like trouble. Don't end up failing because you want to mess around," warned the tower administrator (塔执大人).
The others were extremely envious, but it was not the same kind of envy as when they had first met.
It was extremely curious. This thing called envy was something that only appeared when the two parties' strengths were similar. When one person rose to the point that the other could only look up to, there would be no envy.
An ant wouldn't envy an elephant. A housefly wouldn't envy a Kunpeng (鲲鹏). The reason was that the differences between the two were too big. Even if they wanted to be envious, they didn't have the power to be. The current Long Chen was like that.
"Hehe, good, good. If I can get into Pill Valley, then we can coordinate from outside and inside to cut down the Huo family. Then we can think of a way to bring the two of you into Pill Valley as well to play around. Wouldn't that be fun?" laughed Long Chen.
"If you have this kind of heart, then we're happy. But as for bringing us into Pill Valley, you should probably forget about it. We're aware of our own strength. Let's go celebrate."
Although Long Chen's words had been a bit exaggerated, they still made Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo feel extremely comfortable. Even though Long Chen already had hope of entering Pill Valley, he still placed their families in his heart. That was something rare.
In this world, the least reliable thing was a person's heart. When people saw a new target, their hearts would change. But Long Chen's heart had been unswerving from start to finish.
Their celebration this time lasted a full three days. Long Chen had truly become famous. He was a brilliant youngster who was soaring, his brilliance lighting up the sky.
The news that Long San had used a nine-ring Nine Revolution Life Pill to defeat Huo Wufang was rapidly spread throughout the entire alchemy world by the Fang and Chai families. The name Long San was something anyone with the slightest status would know.
Even the various large sects received this news. When this news reached Shui Wuhen's ears, she couldn't help but sigh.
"When Long Chen does something, it always gets blown up into a huge matter. I really don't know what kind of ending he will cause. Huo family, just accept your bad luck. You could have targeted anyone, but you targeted that fellow."
== Pleasure House ==
After the three days had passed, Long Chen entered seclusion once more. He had to study the flame magical arts he had gained. Last time, he had simply memorized them in one go.
But such magical arts were too profound and Long Chen found himself lost. There was still one month until the finals, so he finally had time to study them.
However, he had only been studying for two days when Long Chen was pulled out by Fang Chang and Chai Liehuo. They said that cultivating so all-out like this wasn't a good thing, and he needed to relax.
As a result, the two of them directly brought Long Chen in front of a majestic, lavish building. It was extremely large, and a dazzling slight from the distance.
Atop the building, written in bold strokes, were three words: House of Pleasures!
"Did you bring me to some low-grade brothel?" Long Chen was dumbfounded.
