C282 Mutual Affection
Originally, Lin Shiyin wanted to dodge it, but when she saw that the other party was Lin Long, who she was extremely familiar with and had a little bit of good impression of, she couldn't help but be startled.
This kind of ease made others look as if Lin Shiyin had taken the initiative to cooperate and let Lin Long grab hold of them.
Of course, if it was accidentally caught by Lin Long, it would be fine to shake it off in time. But the problem was, after being grabbed by Lin Long, Lin Shiyin didn't seem to have the will to shake it off at all.
Lin Shiyin subconsciously wanted to struggle, but she suddenly felt that the other party grabbing onto her felt really strange.
"Who are you, and what do you want?" Liu Jingtong, who had already stopped in his tracks, had a face as black as ink as he shouted angrily.
He had just announced that he would be betrothed to Lin Shiyin, and when he turned around, this man had already grabbed onto Lin Shiyin's hand in front of everyone, how could he not be angry?
"My surname is Lin Long, and I come from the Purple Sun Sect. I am now a disciple of Master Kong Zhi." Lin Long said lightly.
"Who cares who you are, or which teacher's disciple you are, get the hell out of here right now!" Liu Jingtong roared.
He had originally thought that Lin Long was someone from some large power, and seeing that Lin Long was merely someone from some unknown Purple Sun Sect, and was only a disciple of Kong Zhi, he naturally did not place Lin Long in his eyes.
"I'm in love with Miss Lin, so I can leave, but Miss Lin won't stay here any longer." Lin Long said in a calm and collected manner.
"You like poetry?" What a joke, she is already this young master's fiancee! "Now, I will give you a few breaths' time. Get the hell out of here right now!" Liu Jingtong was so angry that his body was trembling.
At this time, Lin Shiyin's father, Lin Wei, a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance, also said in a low voice behind Lin Long and Lin Shiyin, "Shiyin, why haven't you let go of your hand yet!"
Lin Wei's voice was not loud, but it undoubtedly expressed the Lin Family's position, proving that Lin Long was just a person who suddenly appeared out of nowhere to bite on his gold, proving that Liu Jingtong's engagement was true.
Lin Shiyin's face flushed red. She felt that this situation wasn't so good and wanted to secretly take back her hand, but Lin Long had grabbed her hand too tightly. When she heard her father's question, she quickly tried to pull back her hand.
Who would have thought that Lin Long would hold her hand even tighter at this time, making it impossible for her to easily struggle free.
Soon after, Lin Long smiled at Liu Jingtong and said, "Sir Liu is right, status and status really have nothing to do with it. The important thing is, Miss Lin and I are really in love with each other."
After saying that, Lin Long suddenly turned to the confused Lin Shiyin and asked, "Miss Lin, do you think that's the case?"
Hearing Lin Long's question, everyone quieted down and all of them focused on Lin Shiyin's face, wanting to know what she actually said and whether or not it was really like what Lin Long said.
Even Liu Jingtong had quietened down.
When Lin Shiyin, who was originally at a loss as to what to do, heard this question, she somewhat quietened down.
According to his father's plan, he would be betrothed to Liu Jingtong and marry Liu Jingtong two years later, but he wouldn't like Liu Jingtong at all!
Although he had nothing to do with the Lin Gongzi, following Liu Gongzi's instructions, he could possibly be able to prevent such a thing from happening.
Thinking this, Lin Shiyin quickly raised her head and said calmly, "That's right, Young Master Lin Long and I love each other, so I am sorry, Young Master Liu, we will cancel our engagement."
Upon hearing that, the entire audience was in an uproar, they had thought that Lin Long, who had rushed out halfway, had only wishful thinking, who would have thought that Lin Shiyin would have already betrothed him long ago.
Liu Jingtong's face became extremely ashen. He looked at his own father, then looked at Lin Shiyin's father, and used his gaze to ask them what was going on.
Lin Shiyin's father, Lin Wei's, also had an extremely ugly expression. He looked at her daughter and said in a low voice, "Shiyin, stop messing around!"
With things having gotten to this point, how could Lin Shiyin possibly submit to him? Thus, she turned around and looked at her father, and said "Father, our daughter is not messing around, but hopes that father will grant her wish!"
Lin Wei was so angry that he didn't know what to say.
"Lin Long, why don't you take a look at your status? What's Shiyin's status? Are you even worthy of her? Don't think that just because you're the disciple of Instructor Kong Zhi, you can look down on everyone else just because you've obtained the qualifications to be a third-rate alchemist! "With such a status, you are nothing but a pile of dregs in front of me!" How could Liu Jingtong be willing to give up on Lin Shiyin like this, so he asked Lin Long coldly.
During this period of time, someone was naturally secretly telling Lin Long all of this information.
"Oh? Does Young Master Liu think that you are stronger than me?" Lin Long said, his lips curled up slightly, and a strange smile appeared on his face.
Seeing Lin Long say that, Liu Jingtong immediately had a plan in his heart, and said loudly: "Since you, Lin Long, are so confident, do you dare compete with me in pill refining? If I lose, I will immediately rescind the engagement, if you, Lin Long lost, immediately leave Heavenly Star City, and never come back."
Liu Jingtong had long since obtained the qualifications to become a third-rate alchemist, so he did not place Lin Long in his eyes.
"Of course you can. As for which pill you want to concoct, Young Master Liu, since you're the master, I shall leave it to you to decide." Lin Long said without a care.
Seeing Lin Long being so arrogant to such an extent, Liu Jingtong was both surprised and happy.
He was shocked that the Lin Long in front of him was so arrogant to the point that he couldn't understand it. He rejoiced that the other party would actually be arranged by him.
It had to be known that the Liu Family had a unique third ranked pill, this pill had only been spread around the Heavenly Star City, he believed that Lin Long had never seen such a pill before.
Not to mention, the forging method and process of this pill was extremely complicated, and it wasn't something an ordinary grade-3 pill could compare with.
In the past, he had once challenged a teacher from the Alchemists Union to a competition. Even though the other party was extremely knowledgeable in alchemy, he was not a match for him.
Once he was set on refining this kind of pellet, Lin Long, who was extremely familiar with this kind of pellet, would definitely not be able to compare to him.
Hearing Lin Long's words, Lin Shiyin, who was familiar with this, quickly replied, "Lin Gongzi, you must not let the other party decide what to do."
However, Lin Long smiled and said, "I don't mind."
Lin Shiyin leaned towards Lin Long, causing Liu Jingtong's face to turn even uglier. She was afraid that if there were any changes, she could not wait to begin the battle.
"So she immediately said," Then let's compare it to refining a third grade Nine Revolving Heart Pill. I wonder what you think, Lin Long? "
"Nine Revolutions Pure Heart Pill?" Seeing Liu Jingtong taking out the Nine Transformations Heart Cleansing Pill, how could Lin Long not understand what the other party was planning, but he did not put it in his eyes.
Because in his previous life, many years later, this Nine Revolving Core Pill would become a must-have for every Alchemists Union to cultivate due to the complexity of its refining process.
Because of this, Lin Long was extremely familiar with this pill. The most important thing was that in his previous life, there were people who had simplified the entire refining process.
In other words, Liu Jingtong could not even compare to him.
Of course, how could he say something like this to the other party? If the other party wanted to court death, he would not be able to do so in time.
"Alright, let's compete with this Nine Revolutions Pure Heart Pill!" Seeing that Lin Long had agreed, joy immediately appeared on Liu Jingtong's face. Then, he impatiently turned to his servants and said, "Give me the tools and materials!"
Very soon, two tables, two small cauldrons, as well as the ingredients and formula for the Nine Revolving Core Pill were brought out.
The banquet had turned into a pill refining competition in the blink of an eye.
"In order to be fair, I will give you an incense stick of time to familiarize yourself with the formula before you start the contest." With victory in hand, Liu Jingtong said this to show that he did not take any advantage.
Those who were familiar with the inside information naturally despised him. However, due to the Liu family's influence, they did not dare to bring it up.
"No need." Lin Long said without a care.
Seeing Lin Long's arrogant confidence, Lin Shiyin, Cao Xiuqi and the others started to worry. However, since Lin Long had already said so, they could only look at him helplessly.
You're really crazy, you probably won't be able to act crazy later, Liu Jingtong sneered in his heart.
However, he still wore a smile on his face. "Since that's the case, let's begin the competition."
Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the pill refining competition began.
He knew that he would definitely win the round, so from the very beginning, Liu Jingtong did not immediately take action. He looked at Lin Long proudly, and knew that he had already begun to fight, even if he were to take action, he would not rush, but had a leisurely look, making him look like a great general.
The reason he was like that, was naturally because he looked down on Lin Long's strength. If a teacher from Alchemists Union was compared to him, how could he be so relaxed.0
"As expected of the young master of the Liu Clan."
"He truly deserves to be Qin Yi's disciple!"
"With such a performance, that Lin Long can't even compare to his."
As expected, his performance immediately won praise from the crowd.
Hearing this praise, Liu Jingtong felt even more proud in his heart.
Shiyin, open your eyes wide and look carefully, how can this Lin Long compare to me?
On one side, Liu Jingtong was so calm, but on the other side, Lin Long still had not moved.
Thinking that Lin Long was troubled by the complex formula, Liu Jingtong became even happier.
Seeing you being so arrogant, are you seeing a ghost? Hahaha, Liu Jingtong laughed crazily in his heart.
If this wasn't a competition, he would have definitely laughed out loud.
The others also thought that Lin Long was being held up.
If they knew earlier, they wouldn't have done so. Some of them couldn't help but shake their heads.
Lin Shiyin, Cao Xiu Qi and the rest were naturally anxious, but they could only wait. After all, they were not familiar with the pill, and the competition did not allow them to help Lin Long at all.
After they tensed up for a while, Lin Long finally began to make his move.
However, no one believed that he would win this battle.
