Hao Jixin was completely caught off guard as he was sent flying by Ye Jingran's slap before landing on the ground safely with the help of his protector.
This scene immediately dumbfounded everyone.
"Cough! Cough!" Hao Jixin coughed heavily. His face flushed red with anger as he glared at Ye Jingran. "What do you mean by this!?"
Ye Jingran patted her hands as if she was disgusted. "I just wanted to teach you. What's wrong?"
Hao Jixin's face turned gloomy. "Wanted to teach me?"
He suddenly thought of something and pointed at Yun Lintian. "You want to protect him?"
Ye Jingran's slap came after he made a joke about Yun Lintian. Obviously, she was dissatisfied because of this.
Everyone turned to look at Ye Jingran strangely when they heard this. Although Ye Jingran was known as a little devil who did everything at will, she wouldn't attack anyone easily. This meant Hao Jixin's guess should be correct. Ye Jingran clearly tried to protect Yun Lintian.
Yun Lintian's eyes narrowed slightly. He naturally saw through Ye Jingran's thoughts. This woman simply wanted to befriend him. It was just that the method she used would arouse Hao Jixin's anger toward him instead.
"So what? Who let you insult him?" Ye Jingran curled her lips, didn't bother to care about Hao Jixin's anger.
She turned to Yun Lintian and said. "I hope you can see my sincerity. You can come to our Ye Clan at any time."
Hao Jixin gnashed his teeth in a fury. Naturally, he dared not confront Ye Jingran as the Ye Clan was stronger than his Hao Clan. It would bring no benefit to his clan by doing this.
Immediately, he shifted the anger onto Yun Lintian. His eyes were filled with killing intent when he looked at him.
Yun Lintian smiled and cupped his fists. "I am appreciating Young Miss Ye's sincerity. I promise to visit the Ye Clan when the opportunity arises. However, I don't think Young Miss Ye should attack Young Master Hao because of this. He was clearly making a joke, and I didn't feel anything bad about it."
As his voice fell, everyone's mood was mixed. Some were sweating on Yun Lintian's behalf as he had just offended Ye Jingran by saying this, while the others admired his courage.
Hao Jinxin was surprised, and the anger in his heart dissipated a bit.
Meanwhile, Ye Jingran frowned in dissatisfaction. "Are you trying to teach me?"
"I don't dare," Yun Lintian shook his head. "It's just that I don't think violence is a solution. It will create an unnecessary conflict between your Ye Clan and the Hao Clan."
"That's not your concern." Ye Jingran snorted coldly.
Yun Lintian smiled and turned to Hao Jixin. "I'm sorry for causing you trouble, Young Master Hao. This is the best-graded pill I refined. Please accept it."
He then handed a jade bottle to Hao Jixin.
As a young master of the top clan, Hao Jixin naturally didn't lack top-graded healing pills. However, it would be inappropriate to refuse Yun Lintian. In the end, he reluctantly received the jade bottle.
When Hao Jixin opened the bottle, a strong fragrance immediately filled the entire area. Those who were injured during the previous journey could feel their wounds recover just by sniffing the medicinal scent.
Hao Jixin's eyes widened in shock. He had seen a lot of best-graded pills before, but none of them could compare to this one. If Yun Lintian didn't lie, he was undoubtedly a top alchemist.
He couldn't help looking at Yun Lintian deeply. Now, he wanted to slap his mouth for insulting Yun Lintian previously.
Meanwhile, Ye Jingran looked at Yun Lintian with an incredible expression. She was even more convinced now that Yun Lintian was extremely powerful. It seemed she had to reevaluate her method again.
Ximen Wu, who had been silent all this time, stepped forward and said. "See? I told you before that he's a top alchemist."
As he spoke, he cast a deep look at Yun Lintian. Although Ximen Wu might look carefree, he wasn't a fool. Yun Lintian's earlier performance could be described as perfect. Not only could he solve Hao Jixin's anger, but he also showed his value in front of everything.
Even if Ye Jingran wanted to attack Yun Lintian because he reprimanded her, she would have to consider it carefully.
Standing behind him, Liu Yan and her two comrades looked at Yun Lintian in admiration. Even when facing top young masters and young misses, Yun Lintian could still maintain his composure and devise a perfect way to solve the problem.
Hao Jixin didn't take the healing pill. He closed the bottle and cupped his fists toward Yun Lintian. "I had offended Senior Lin earlier. Please forgive me."
Yun Lintian smiled and said. "It's nothing. Everything is fine now."
At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out of the tall building at the front and said. "Dear esteemed guests, the formation is ready. Feel free to use it at any time."
Ye Jingran didn't say anything. She flicked her sleeve and walked into the building.
Ximen Wu looked at Yun Lintian and said. "Let's go, Brother Lin."
Yun Lintian nodded and followed Ximen Wu into the building.
When they arrived inside the building, Yun Lintian saw a huge formation at the center of the hall. What surprised him were the ancient runes around the formation. These ancient runes were clearly inferior to the runes he could inscribe.
Although the formation could send people to a distant location, the distance was far inferior to Yun Lintian's grand teleporting formation back to the Azure World.
This immediately gave Yun Lintian a new understanding. The formation of art in this world was more backward than he thought.
At this moment, Ye Jingran had already walked into the formation and disappeared with a flash of white light.
Ximen Wu didn't say anything and brought Yun Lintian and the others into the formation.
After a brief flash of white light, Yun Lintian already found himself standing in several times more spacious hall than the previous one. Many formations and people could be seen everywhere.
"This is the formation hub of the capital city." Ximen Wu introduced them. "You can travel to other kingdoms or cities from here."
"I see." Yun Lintian nodded slightly.
"Let's go." Ximen Wu waved his hand and walked toward the exit.
