Zi Ling carefully sensed for a moment, discovering that these killing intents were from Black Yan Hall, Yunlong Heavenly Palace, and even one from Tan Yu.
Seeing this, Zi Ling immediately became serious and had no heart to pay attention to Zhang Caiyun anymore.
It should be known that Tan Yu's strength is not inferior to Zi Ling. Such combat power far surpasses that of ordinary Creation Realm experts; she dared not take it lightly and must treat it cautiously.
It seems Lin Chen and the people of the Tan Family have formed a grudge.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen, I didn't expect that in just two short months since entering the ruins, you've made quite a few enemies. You have some skills, a bit like Senior Sister me." Zi Ling looked at Lin Chen and conveyed with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Lin Chen was speechless, feeling that in Zi Ling's view, having more enemies is a sign of skill.
However, Zi Ling had no idea that forming grudges with those people was not Lin Chen's wish. If he had a choice, he wouldn't want to become enemies with them either.
But there was no way around it; the enmity between Lin Chen and these people was indeed unavoidable.
Take Hei Xuan for instance; the person inexplicably wanted to annihilate him, so how could Lin Chen willingly let him do it?
For such potential dangers, the best method is to eliminate them completely so Lin Chen can feel at ease.
As for people like Yun Kaige, Wang Shuo, and Zhou An, each with their prestigious backgrounds, they are not easy to offend; the enmity with them was also forced upon Lin Chen.
Lin Chen didn't want to provoke them, but these people actively sought trouble with Lin Chen.
Moreover, if not for Zi Ling being present, Lin Chen wouldn't dare show himself and would probably hide behind the crowd.
After all, there are many experts here, as well as quite a few enemies. If Lin Chen were to appear blatantly, these people might join hands against him.
But with Zi Ling here, the situation is different.
Seeing Zi Ling not planning to quarrel with Zhang Caiyun, both Zhang Hongying and Zhang Tianjie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Zi Ling said she overlooked it for Lin Chen's sake, showing that Lin Chen holds a significant place in her heart.
Zhang Hongying, hearing Zi Ling's words, couldn't help but take a few extra glances at Lin Chen, secretly contemplating whether there might be something between those two; otherwise, when has Zi Ling ever considered others' face in her actions?
Even Cheng Liang looked at Zi Ling with a peculiar expression, then at Lin Chen, thinking to himself that Senior Sister Zi Ling and Lin Chen surely have a thing going on and that he should tell Wan Qiansan later.
"Young Master Lin Chen, do you still happen to have any Flame Explosion Talismans on you? We'd like to buy some more." After the matter between Zhang Caiyun and Zi Ling calmed down, Zhang Hongying approached Lin Chen and asked.
Previously, with the help of the Flame Explosion Talismans borrowed from Lin Chen, they averted many crises in over a month. Without those talismans, who knows how many casualties they would have sustained.
At that time, buying talisman inscriptions from Lin Chen proved to be a wise decision, though they had thought it expensive initially.
However, out of the original one hundred and twenty-six talisman inscriptions bought and borrowed, they've already used up one hundred. They didn't know what dangers they would encounter next, hence inquiring Lin Chen.
"This... Miss Hong Ying, I do have a fair amount of Flame Explosion Talismans on me, but I already loaned you all a hundred last time. You still owe me ten million low-grade Spirit Crystals. I can't loan you more talismans until the debt is cleared." Lin Chen looked at Zhang Hongying and the others and said blandly.
After all, they seemed to be treating Lin Chen like a supply channel.
"Young Master Lin Chen, rest assured, we've acquired quite a few materials during this time. We'll settle the debt with you first."
"Here are materials worth ten million low-grade Spirit Crystals. Please take a look, Young Master Lin Chen."
Saying this, Zhang Hongying took out a spatial ring and handed it to Lin Chen, saying.
In this ruin, there are many treasures; as long as one survives, even casually collecting some would yield great profit.
During this time, Zhang Hongying and others resolved numerous crises and acquired many treasures worth twenty million, thanks to Lin Chen's Flame Explosion Talismans.
Lin Chen accepted the spatial ring handed by Zhang Hongying, and a strand of Divine Sense penetrated, glancing over casually. Indeed, it contained many materials, some of which Lin Chen needed for his formation setup.
Lin Chen was pleased and accepted it with an unchanged expression. Calculated thoroughly, these materials were worth ten million low-grade Spirit Crystals even at the lowest selling price.
"Very well, these materials are worth ten million low-grade Spirit Crystals."
Lin Chen said, returning the IOU that he had Zhang Hongying and others write.
"With this, our accounts are settled." Lin Chen looked at Zhang Hongying and said blandly.
"Young Master Lin Chen, may we purchase some more of those talisman inscriptions from you?" Zhang Hongying asked while looking at Lin Chen.
After all, Lin Chen's talisman inscriptions were powerful, having repeatedly assisted them in escaping danger. The making of such talismans by Lin Chen should be difficult, and they didn't know how many he still had. If he had some, he might keep them for himself for emergencies, not necessarily selling them.
"I can sell you the talisman inscriptions, but as you know, the power of these inscriptions—when I sold them to you before, ten thousand low-grade Spirit Crystals per talisman was a friendly price. Now that you've obtained quite a few valuable materials, I can't continue to do charity." Lin Chen said blandly, looking at Zhang Hongying.
"Lin Chen, how can you do this? Doing business is about integrity; you are raising prices on the spot, taking advantage of the situation!" Zhang Caiyun listened to Lin Chen's words, feeling immediately displeased and spoke out. Perhaps annoyed by Zi Ling, this woman seemed heated at the moment.
"Haha, if you think it's expensive, you don't have to buy it. I'm not forcing you. Go and inquire, see what the price of talisman inscriptions or magic treasures with similar power to my inscriptions is in the market. If you can find them, not only will I not raise prices, but I'll also sell them to you at a discount."
"You know well enough yourself the power of my talisman inscriptions from using them."
