Chapter 1751: Chapter 903: Deal?

Under these circumstances, Zhou Tianlong’s enthusiastic reaction seemed somewhat unusual to Lin Tianming.

For this reason, Lin Tianming felt a bit uneasy inside.

At this moment, perhaps after seeing Lin Tianming’s reaction, Zhou Tianlong also gave a faint smile, which indeed eased the atmosphere quite a bit.

Immediately, Zhou Tianlong spoke: “Young Lin, you’ve come to Yulan Sect to participate in the Alchemist competition?”

Hearing this inquiry, Lin Tianming didn’t dare delay and even less dared to have any thoughts of hiding the truth.

After all, one of his purposes for this trip was to participate in the Alchemist Conference.

And this news, along with his open appearance, had already started spreading around the mountain gates of Yulan Sect.

As of now, there were quite a few cultivators aware of this matter, particularly those in Yulan City, who certainly had gotten some intelligence about him.

On such a basis, any attempt by Lin Tianming to conceal something in front of Zhou Tianlong was utterly unnecessary.

Moreover, Zhou Tianlong’s strength was formidable, his status remarkably high, and he was also the overseer of this Alchemist Conference.

Given all these factors, if Lin Tianming were to lie with his eyes open, it would be akin to seeking death.

Understanding this, Lin Tianming, as soon as Zhou Tianlong’s words fell, hurriedly and respectfully replied: “Reporting to Senior Zhou, indeed, I intend to participate in this Alchemist Conference.”

“It’s just that my alchemy skills are limited, and whether I can achieve certain results in this gathering of prodigies remains uncertain.”

Lin Tianming spoke modestly, his face showing an attitude of neither boasting nor downplaying.

Hearing this, Zhou Tianlong couldn’t help but smile faintly, and his expression seemed quite amicable.

Immediately, Zhou Tianlong pretended to be profound and uttered a sentence.

“Young Lin, you need not be modest. I’ve long paid close attention to the news about you.”

“On this foundation, I’m well aware of Young Lin’s strength and alchemy expertise.”

“Hehe…”

Saying this, Zhou Tianlong laughed softly and, with a slightly excited tone, spoke: “Truth be told, this Alchemist Conference is truly a gathering of prodigies.”

“You should know, to participate in this Alchemist Conference, even the prodigies from Yunzhou have rushed to attend.”

“And our sect has prepared many precious rewards for this grand event.”

“Among them are many treasures, which presumably have significant use for cultivators of Young Lin’s realm.”

“Therefore, Young Lin should make the best of this opportunity and see if you can obtain the leader’s position, so as not to let other prodigies from different regions steal the thunder.”

“And if that is truly the case, I’m afraid the entire Qingzhou cultivators’ expectations will face a great loss of face.”

“At that time, Qingzhou cultivators might find it even more difficult to hold their heads high in front of cultivators from other regions.”

After saying this, Zhou Tianlong looked earnestly at Lin Tianming, with an expression in his eyes that seemed quite hopeful.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Tianming was neither overly modest nor overly confident.

However, in response to Zhou Tianlong’s expectations, Lin Tianming nodded slightly, as if to offer some acknowledgment.

Seeing this attitude of Lin Tianming, Zhou Tianlong didn’t mind much, nor did he intend to dwell excessively on the outcome of this matter.

Instead, Zhou Tianlong shifted the topic and proactively brought up the main subject in the following moments.

“Young Lin, at your visit to our Yulan Sect, and desiring to meet me as well, is there something you wish to discuss?”

“If you have any issues, don’t hold back!”

After speaking, Zhou Tianlong gazed earnestly at Lin Tianming, his heart quite eager for Lin Tianming’s explanation.

Upon seeing this situation, Lin Tianming decided not to beat around the bush.

In his opinion, dealing with Zhou Tianlong, the strongest in Qingzhou, a Fourth Tier High Order Alchemist, a two-thousand-year-old monster, was not the time for skirting around or clever ploys.

Being straightforward might yield better effects and might not easily provoke Zhou Tianlong’s aversion.

With this understanding, Lin Tianming nodded at this moment and then unhesitatingly began speaking about his purpose.

According to him, besides participating in the Alchemist Conference, his main purpose for coming to Yulan Sect was to seek assistance from a Fourth Order Alchemist to refine a Fourth Order Elixir.

Upon hearing Lin Tianming’s explanation, Zhou Tianlong wasn’t surprised.

From his perspective, a Golden Core Stage Cultivator on Qingzhou Land approaching him was either due to some connection with Yulan Sect or a personal link with him.

Apart from these, the most likely purpose was to request his aid in alchemy.

Beyond this, a Golden Core Stage Cultivator seeking him almost had no other reason.

Under such circumstances, when Lin Tianming stated his purpose, Zhou Tianlong had already vaguely speculated about it.

And now, facing Lin Tianming’s statement, Zhou Tianlong showed considerable interest in the elixir Lin Tianming intended to refine.

Thus, in the next moment, Zhou Tianlong asked: “Young Lin, what type of elixir do you want to refine?”

Upon hearing this and seeing Zhou Tianlong’s somewhat expectant expression, Lin Tianming was overjoyed.

Because in his view, Zhou Tianlong’s displayed attitude seemed quite interested in his request.

Moreover, Zhou Tianlong appeared not to reject his plea much.
