Facing Ye Chen's protest, Lin Xiao frowned, grabbed Ye Chen's arm, and began to examine him. After quickly inspecting Ye Chen's body in his hands, he then frowned and let go.
"It's indeed as he said, your True Qi has begun to transform into spiritual energy, and your superficial injuries are of no consequence. While I don't know what this ointment is, as he said, it will definitely help you recover completely within a day, perhaps even in just half a day," Lin Xiao said.
The more normal Ye Chen's body appeared, the stranger Lin Xiao felt.
What was going on with Qi Tian? He was so agreeable?
He had so easily improved Ye Chen's strength, and without any ulterior motives? Was it simply to have Ye Chen be an experimental subject for him?
He couldn't understand.
Perhaps this was just how people from the Artifact Sect were.
The people of the Artifact Sect acted based on their own preferences and judgments of whether something would be beneficial to them.
If it was beneficial to him, he would do it, no matter how absurd it might seem to outsiders.
"Does that mean, later, I can also help Brother Xiao and that kid Ming Yi resist the Misty Immortal Palace?" Ye Chen asked hurriedly.
"Why are you getting involved?" Lin Xiao glanced at him. "We don't know how strong the Misty Immortal Palace will be when the time comes. To be safe, we absolutely cannot have all our forces wiped out. I can go, but you must stay behind."
At that time, Ye Chen would be the one to manage affairs in his absence.
"No, Brother Xiao, I need to go and help. Since I am a combat force, if I go and the Misty Immortal Palace isn't too strong, I can still do a lot!" Ye Chen became anxious upon hearing Lin Xiao's words. How could this be?
Brother Xiao was going, and he wasn't? If the brothers in the Northern Frontier found out, wouldn't they criticize him?
Brother Xiao was currently the soul of the Northern Frontier! He was the benchmark of Longguo! He was their guardian god. Ye Chen could fall, but Brother Xiao couldn't!
"I said it's an order," Lin Xiao reprimanded. He then frowned, the Misty Immortal Palace... that was where his Lin family's ancestors came from, the sect that had kept so many divine realm experts in Longguo with just ten outer disciples.
Even if, according to the Ning family, the Misty Immortal Palace's strength had greatly diminished, how weak could it be?
If every outer disciple was a divine realm expert, then what about the others?
Could there be those above the divine realm, as Elder Zhuge mentioned?
If there were experts above the divine realm, then he would also be powerless.
An order, again an order...
Ye Chen wanted to say something, but upon seeing Lin Xiao's expression, he gave up. There was no choice.
Once Brother Xiao made a decision, he wouldn't change it.
Later... he would arrange for people to protect Sister-in-law and the others, and then sneakily follow. He was now at the Mingxin realm, so Brother Xiao probably wouldn't discover him.
"By the way... later, if Qi Tian comes, notify me. I have something I want to discuss with him," Lin Xiao said before leaving.
"Yes."
Ye Chen didn't know what Lin Xiao wanted to discuss with Qi Tian, but he could roughly guess.
It was likely about the relationship between the Artifact Sect and the Misty Immortal Palace, and to inquire about the current strength of the Misty Immortal Palace from Qi Tian.
It was evident that the Artifact Sect and the Misty Immortal Palace did not get along.
