Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator

Lin Xuan didn't react.

He frowned, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him whose attitude had completely changed.

What kind of trick are they playing now?

A sugar-coated bullet attack?

First, he locked himself in a water dungeon and tortured himself to the point of near death with water droplets.

Now they're doing this again.

Something's not right...

Seeing Lin Xuan's expression, Liu Bo's heart skipped a beat, and cold sweat broke out again.

He rubbed his hands together, stepped forward, and bent even lower.

"Young Master Lin, I was blind to your greatness before and offended you!"

"Please allow me to atone for my sins! This bucket of spiritual liquid has now completely healed your injuries!"

Seeing that Lin Xuan remained silent, he gritted his teeth and continued:

"From now on, 20% of the resources in Jiangzhou will be allocated to you!!"

Lin Xuan remained silent.

Elixir...resources...

He wasn't haggling.

However, they still didn't understand the situation at hand.

Young Master?

I?

"25%!"

Liu Bo's voice was trembling with tears.

He gritted his teeth, wanting to slap himself in the face.

They brought this on themselves!

Seeing Liu Bo's pained expression, Lin Xuan finally spoke up.

"What...are you doing?"

"30%! Young Master Lin, that's the most we can offer!"

Liu Bo was so anxious that he kept stamping his feet.

"With the addition of you and Wang Dali this year, resources were already stretched thin. If we add more, I really can't afford to contribute! I, as the director, also need to make a living!"

He counted on his fingers, his face full of distress:

"Look, the league only has so many quotas each year, and there are so many people waiting to get them! And what about our brothers' quotas..."

Lin Xuan thought for a while.

Although I don't know what happened.

But it seems that I have indeed joined this so-called Ancient Martial Arts Alliance.

Could that water dungeon be the third trial?

But this third level is too insane; it's practically designed to kill you.

He always felt that something was off, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"Um."

Lin Xuan finally spoke, giving a faint "hmm".

He decided that no matter what, he would get out first.

No.

No, let me absorb this elixir first!

This stuff is really comfortable to soak in!

The true energy within his body rapidly replenished, even more abundant than before.

Upon hearing this, Liu Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good! Good! Young Master Lin..."

He leaned closer and lowered his voice.

"From now on, in front of outsiders, I'll still call you Xiao Lin, and you can call me Director Liu. In private, we can... okay?"

Seeing Liu Bo's fawning manner, Lin Xuan nodded.

However, he secretly rejected his previous idea.

I'm afraid the water dungeon isn't the third level.

Even if I pass.

He doesn't need to treat himself that way.

The changes before and after.

This only proves one thing.

In his eyes.

My identity has undergone a complete transformation!

Can...

Why?

Could it be that mysterious voice from inside the water dungeon?

Apart from that, he didn't seem to know any other ancient martial arts practitioners.

Wang Dali, Ye Jin.

Although they were all capable, their strength was not enough to frighten Director Liu so much.

Thinking it over, Lin Xuan shook his head secretly.

Let's restore our strength first!

He closed his eyes.

It began to frantically absorb the nourishment from the spiritual liquid.

That warm energy seeped into the skin and surged through the meridians.

The true essence in his dantian became increasingly abundant. The meridians, which had been dried up by the Blood Burning Technique, were now like parched land receiving rain, greedily absorbing every bit of power.

Watching Lin Xuan cultivate.

Liu Bo breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left, no longer wanting to bother him.

As soon as he stepped out of the inner room, the smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by an exhausted expression.

He rubbed his temples.

"This is truly...a terrible tragedy..."

"Director Liu, what about these spiritual liquids?" a researcher whispered.

"Give it all to him, and keep a close eye on his health; there can't be any loss."

Liu Bo waved his hand and left.

I had only taken a few steps outside.

He saw Ye Jin and Wang Dali coming towards him.

Neither of them looked too good.

"Director, why did you lock Lin Xuan in the water dungeon?"

Ye Jin looked serious, her tone questioning.

Wang Dali, standing to the side, glared at him intently.

If Ye Jin hadn't stopped her,

He's definitely going to start fighting right away.

Normally, Liu Bo would definitely teach these two ignorant boys a good lesson.

But now, he no longer has that spirit.

Liu Bo waved his hand, looking impatient:

"Alright, enough with the nonsense. Young Master Lin... Xiao Lin is already one of us."

"From now on, we're all family. He's recovering from his injuries inside, so if you're worried, just wait here."

After saying that, he yawned and left.

"Staying out all night... Ugh... I'm going to get a beating again."

He touched his thinning head, sighed, and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Ye Jin and Wang Dali exchanged a glance, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.

"What does he mean?"

Wang Dali scratched his head, looking puzzled.

They were just about to fight, and now they're suddenly saying they're family?

Ye Jin shook her head:

"N-no... I don't know. Weren't we supposed to be going to the water dungeon? How did I end up joining already?"

"Never mind, let's go check on my brother first!"

"Walk!"

As they spoke, the two arrived outside the room in front.

Once inside, you'll see a large screen displaying various complex waveforms and data.

Various indicator lights flashed continuously, emitting a slight buzzing sound.

In front of them was a huge one-way window.

Looking through the glass, Lin Xuan was sitting in a wooden tub, his eyes closed, surrounded by mist, his expression calm.

"Team Leader Ye, Team Leader Wang."

The two researchers greeted each other, and one of them stood up and adjusted his glasses.

"How is Lin Xuan?" Ye Jin nodded.

"Something's not right," one of them said, his brow furrowed.

Upon hearing this, Wang Dali's anger flared up instantly:

"Damn it, you broke my brother?"

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and turned to look for Liu Bo.

Ye Jin was quick-witted and stopped him.

"What happened?"

Ye Jin turned to look at the researcher.

The researcher quickly shook his head:

"No, no! It's just that Team Leader Lin... is a bit different from ordinary people!"

"Different from ordinary people? Aren't we all like that?" Wang Dali looked completely bewildered.

"Hmm...you should come and see for yourself."

As he spoke, he brought up a set of data on the computer screen.

The screen displayed various curves and numbers, densely packed together.

Wang Dali had just joined the league and didn't understand any of this stuff.

He stared at the screen for a long time, feeling dizzy and overwhelmed.

Ye Jin, however, quickly realized what was going on after just one glance.

Her eyes widened, and her voice changed tone.

"Why is he absorbing the spiritual liquid so... quickly?"

The researcher nodded:

"Yes, this is your usual pace, Team Leader Ye, but this new Team Leader Lin..."

He adjusted his glasses and solemnly declared, "It's...five times yours!"
