Chapter 560 – Voluntarily Taking the Blame

　　Lin Xuanzhi was smiling. He looked at Yan Tianhen with a kind of indulgence, and said, “Yes, anyway, I have nothing much to do. There is no one to talk to on the island, it’s very lonely. However, planting spiritual herbs can also cultivate one’s body, and it’s also fun.”

　　Mr. Li seemed to swallow an egg raw, staring at Lin Xuanzhi for a while without speaking.

　　Lin Xuanzhi hammered the final word, “In short, since Ah Hen is unwilling, and since I don’t like strangers coming to the island to disturb my peace, I am afraid I can’t help much with this matter mentioned by Mr. Li.”

　　Mr. Li had to sigh, “If this is the case, I won’t force it. I’ve troubled you. I still have some mundane things to do in the sect, so I will leave first.” Mr. Li got up, and Yan Tianhen followed suit.

　　Yan Tianhen smiled and said, “Mr. Li, walk slowly.”

　　Mr. Li had originally planned to leave. Hearing this, he stopped and turned to look at Yan Tianhen, “You have put all your attention on doing business recently, and even your school work has been relaxed. A few days ago, you asked for leave to be in seclusion, but I don’t think you have made any breakthroughs in your cultivation. I know that you are quite talented, and you are good at alchemy. The efforts of others for a hundred years are not as good as your one-day work. But if you want to seek the great Dao, or even the realm where the great Dao is, I’m afraid it is not enough for you to do what you want.”

　　Yan Tianhen suddenly blushed and felt that Mr. Li was absolutely taking revenge on him.

　　Moreover, he was even doing it in front of Lin Xuanzhi!

　　However, Yan Tianhen also knew that Mr. Li was right, so he had to smile bitterly and said, “What Mr. Li taught me is very true, and I will definitely correct my mistakes.”

　　Mr. Li nodded and said, “Another thing, the pills you handed in for the second assignment are obviously not as good as the pills you handed in the first time. If you have time, you can refine again and show me.”

　　What else could Yan Tianhen say? Of course he had to say yes.

　　Mr. Li left in a hurry.

　　After a gust of wind, Yan Tianhen turned his face and saw Lin Xuanzhi looking at him with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

　　Yan Tianhen scratched his head awkwardly. “I wasn’t, I didn’t… I was very serious about practicing alchemy in closed-door cultivation. I didn’t know that he had assigned his classwork. I only heard people mention it after coming out of seclusion, so I was too rushed and only made one top-grade pill.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi said, “You haven’t been able to break through after half a month of secluded cultivation?”

　　Yan Tianhen was also a little at a loss. “It is reasonable to say that my realm has been loosened a few years ago, but I don’t know why I can’t break through.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi asked, “Have you told your dad about it?”

　　“I did.” Yan Tianhen was very upset when he mentioned this, “Then my dad said that he has seen a lot of things like this, and I just have to go with the flow and not force it. He told me to explore it myself.”

　　Olc Wejcht, “…”

　　You Ming really is his biological father.

　　Damn. Who the hell tattled on me?

　　Yan Tianhen was a little surprised, he was indeed practicing these two techniques; but apart from his parents and some close relatives and friends, no one knew what skills he was practicing.

　　Especially his 《Ancient Divine Devil Dance》, Yan Tianhen only cultivated to the third realm.

　　This set of techniques was used in conjunction with the Imperial Corpse Technique, because Yan Tianhen’s Imperial Corpse Technique had not been used in front of people in recent years, so few people know about it.

　　However, Lin Xuanzhi knew so well, which made Yan Tianhen feel incredible.

　　As if seeing through Yan Tianhen’s thoughts, Lin Xuanzhi smiled, “Your master told me all the techniques you are practicing now, and I also know you well.”

　　So that’s it.

　　Yan Tianhen curled his lips and said, “Mr. Li is really unreliable. He even had ideas about you. I don’t know what kind of enchantment Tong Zishu has put on him.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi said, “It is understandable for him to think so, after all, I’ve opened a precedent for you.”

　　“Is the relationship between me and you, and the relationship between them and you, comparable?” Yan Tianhen said indignantly. “I don’t want him to set foot on Penglai Island. This is your peaceful place. No one else can easily touch it.”

　　Seeing that he was angry, Lin Xuanzhi asked, “No matter whether you agreed or disagreed, I still wouldn’t have agreed, but you seem to be targeting that disciple?”

　　Yan Tianhen snorted and said, “Who told him to speak ill of me behind my back? He thought that no one knew about it, but in fact, in Myriad Dao Academy, how can I not have a few spies? I remember what they did and said behind my back. I am a very vengeful person.”

　　Especially that person who even scolded Lin Xuanzhi as well; how could Yan Tianhen endure this?

　　Tong Zishu would pretend to be weak and pitiful, and win people’s sympathy and favor. But in the end, he was quite a troublesome person. Such people, Yan Tianhen had seen a lot in the Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital. When he didn’t know Tong Zishi at first, he had no opinions about the person. But now… If Tong Zishu wants to come to Penglai Island, Yan Tianhen will only send him two words.

　　Keep dreaming!

　　Besides, Yan Tianhen seriously suspected that it was Tong Zishu who instigated Mr. Li to come to Little Penglai to talk about the lease of spiritual plant fields, and Yan Tianhen’s impression of him worsened even more.

　　When Lin Xuanzhi heard this, he said, “So that’s the case, but I didn’t intend to rent this place to him. You became a bad person for nothing.”

　　Yan Tianhen laughed, “How could it have been in vain? It was better for me to be the bad guy than for you to be the bad guy.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi paused, and said softly, “Nonsense. Tell me, why would I need a child to take the blame for me?”

　　Yan Tianhen said with a smile, “I’m willing, I’m happy, and I’m proud to do it. In any case, they can curse me all they want, but I just can’t stand hearing them say any malicious remarks about Huarong Gege.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi was a person outside the mundane world. When others mentioned him, he would be praised, and no one dared to say bad words about him. Lin Xuanzhi’s heart was full of warmth, and Yan Tianhen could always poke the softest place in his heart.

　　At such times, he couldn’t help thinking, If Yan Tianhen’s memory wasn’t wiped out, how happy would such a scene be?

　　The moon in the water is the moon in the sky, and the person in front of you is the one you love.

　　It’s a pity that though they were so close now, they still seemed like strangers.

　　In the case of this Tong Zishu, the two reached a high degree of agreement, and Lin Xuanzhi, from beginning to end, did not intend to give up the peaceful Little Penglai to outsiders. On ordinary days, Yan Tianhen didn’t want to think too much, but when it came to Lin Xuanzhi, he could always think about everything.

　　“Huarong Gege, this place is still within Myriad Dao Academy. If they force you to give up some land, what can you do?”

　　Lin Xuanzhi didn’t worry, and said, “Although this place is still within the Myriad Dao Academy, I have almost obtained the title deed. Even if they don’t like me, no one can drive me away as long as I don’t want to leave.”

　　Yan Tianhen smiled with joy on his face and said, “I’m relieved.”

　　“Let’s not talk about this, how has your pill business been recently?”

　　Yan Tianhen showed a slightly embarrassed look, and said, “It just opened, and the business hasn’t gotten better yet, it will probably be better in the future.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi smiled faintly, and asked, “What kind of medicine have you sold?”

　　“Most of them are pills for beauty, detoxification, and cleansing. After all, these kinds of pills won’t easily overlap with the pills refined by the sect’s gentlemen, and nobody in the sect has sold them before.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi made a little consideration and said, “If this kind of pills can be sold, it will certainly bring endless benefits. It only needs some people to try it first and then give it a good reputation. In the future, the business will be much smoother.”

　　Yan Tianhen’s eyes brightened. “Huarong Gege means that I should give others a free trial to test the effects, and then rely on their feedback and word of mouth to bring out sales?”

　　Lin Xuanzhi nodded and said with a smile, “Ah Hen is really quite business-savvy.”

　　Yan Tianhen scratched his head with embarrassment.

　　Speaking of this, Lin Xuanzhi could only say such a thing because he loves Ah Hen. If he was heard by others, they would probably laugh at him for speaking such nonsense with his eyes open.

　　Yan Tianhen had absolutely no talent in doing business, otherwise, how could he not even understand the business tactic of giving benefits to others first, and then using word of mouth to expand his network and bring in customers?

　　Yan Tianhen himself knew what kind of person he was. He laughed and said, “Huarong Gege, don’t make fun of me. I know I don’t have any talent in business, but I’m lucky. The Elder Martial Brother Shi Yi, who was poisoned by snake venom, came to me today to buy a pill to remove the poison. As long as I can cure him, There will be more people who will believe in me in the future.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi nodded. “If Ah Hen takes action, naturally it will be cured. But the toxins on Shi Yi’s face have accumulated for many years, and it’s hard to eradicate it from the roots. What kind of spiritual plants do you need?”

　　Yan Tianhen blinked and said, “Huarong Gege, you are not worried that I will not be able to cure him?”

　　Lin Xuanzhi looked at him and said, “If you did not feel that you could do it, you would’ve naturally refused him. Ah Hen is also a person who honors promises like they’re worth thousands of gold.”

　　Yan Tianhen was happy in his heart and smiled. “Although I can’t do business, I am still very confident in alchemy.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi smiled, “What kind of medicinal pill are you going to refine?”

　　“Silver Frost Poison Pill, this is a kind of poison pill created by my father, specializing in the detoxification of snake venom, but I have seen the spiritual herbs that are needed, and each one is very strong. Ordinary people would not be able to bear the pain if they actually ingested them.”

　　Lin Xuanzhi said, “If you can help people, it should be fine.”

　　Yan Tianhen sighed and said, “Senior Brother Shi Yi is probably also anxious in his heart. That’s why he came to me desperately. I must help him with all my heart.”

　　Yan Tianhen told Lin Xuanzhi about the few spiritual herbs he needed. After hearing them, he found that there were two kinds of level 6 spiritual herbs that needed qualification to apply for them.

　　Lin Xuanzhi raised his eyebrows, and looked at Yan Tianhen with deep meaning, “I thought Ah Hen was thinking about visiting me because he hadn’t seen me for a long time. I didn’t expect that you just wanted me to buy spiritual herbs for you.”

　　Yan Tianhen was the picture of innocence, and he opened a pair of apricot eyes wide. “I’m not, I didn’t. Buying the spiritual herbs is incidental. Coming to visit Huarong Gege is the most important, otherwise I wouldn’t have wanted you to buy spiritual herbs. I will let Little YuYu go — you can’t misunderstand me.”
