Saying Conjecture

Li Shin stood calmly in the middle of the road that Kong Lu and the Alchemist Association were about to cross. Everyone was intrigued by his actions and felt that the young man was brave enough.

Kong Lu examined Li Shin's figure carefully and found nothing noteworthy about the young man. He simply assumed that the young man desired his attention.

Shen Zhinhu, of course, was the most agitated. He had already gone to great lengths to persuade the Alchemist Association to back the Shen family. Now a trash from the Li family wanted to be the center of attention.

How could Li Zhinhu keep quiet?

"Why is Shen Zhinhu still here?" The elderly man stated coldly.

"I have no idea, teacher!" Shen Zhinhu responded openly.

Kong Lu was obviously dissatisfied, but he asked calmly. "Who is he?"

Shen Zhinhu's eyes lit up when he saw the opportunity to speak with Kong Lu, and he immediately took a step forward and cupped his hands to explain.

"Master Kong Lu is nothing more than garbage and is unworthy of mention. To maintain order, someone from the Alchemist Association will kick him out." Shen Zhinhu said politely.

Everyone who heard Shen Zhinhu's words believed him right away. Furthermore, everyone was aware of the rumors about the Li family's young master being a piece of trash.

No one would defend Li Shin, who was standing there; in fact, everyone was looking at him with regret, and none of them were ignoring him.

"Please come with us out of here as soon as possible." A guard who had just arrived spoke up.

"I want to speak to Master Kong Lu," Li Shin finally said when more than three guards arrived and were about to chase him away.

"Don't cause any problems, or we'll be rude." The guard had had enough and wanted to use force to drive Li Shin away.

Despite his negative first impression of Li Shin, Kong Lu frowned and asked, "Stop it?"

The guards were perplexed by Kong Lu's demeanor, but they did not argue and stepped aside to allow Li Shin to speak.

"Do you have any interest in me?" Kong Lu inquired once more.

"All right, I have an important matter to discuss with Master Kong Lu." Li Shin nodded slightly and stated his intention directly.

Shen Zhinhu and the others were taken aback. Initially, Li Shin would be flattering, but who would have guessed that Li Shin would be so shameless as to want to speak privately with Kong Lu? Is he unaware of Kong Lu's identity?

Everyone in the room was taken aback by Li Shin's daring move, believing that he was only humiliating himself and the Li Family who supported him.

Many people began to suspect that Li Shin had come here with the intent of embarrassing and harming the Li family.

Even Kong Lu was taken aback by the situation. He clearly did not expect this young man to state his goal so openly.

Unfortunately, Kong Lu didn't have much free time to listen to a young man like Li Shin's words. "Young man, I admire your bravery, but I'm sorry I didn't have time to speak with you."

"Please leave the Alchemist Association now that you've stated your goal. Individuals like you are not welcome here!" Kong Lu stated with a bored expression on his face.

Shen Zhinhu was overjoyed, especially the guards who wanted to take Li Shin away. They can't wait to kick him in the ass.

"Wait!." Li Shin opened his mouth again, his gaze returning to Kong Lu's body, which stood firm.

"Don't cause any more problems, so get out of here!" said one of the guards.

Li Shin didn't move an inch before saying, "You will perish, Master Kong Lu!."

"..." Everyone was taken aback by Li Shin's words.

Kong Lu had to have been a Martial General level cultivator. Even within the Shui Empire, his position and status were extremely noble, yet a Li family trash young master issued a death threat against him.

How brave was Li Shin to attempt such a feat?

"Hmph! Before death, one does not stop making mistakes!" Kong Lu's expression turned cold, and he didn't waste any more words before reaching out to strike Li Shin.

In fact, Kong Lu had internal injuries, but they were not life-threatening and he expected them to heal over time. He will also work quickly to find a solution to his condition.

"I'm only telling the truth, Master Kong Lu!" Li Shin opened his mouth again, but his body only moved for a fraction of a second before dodging Kong Lu's attack.

Everyone assumed Li Shin couldn't avoid and would end up pitifully. But who would have guessed he could avoid Kong Lu's attack?

Shen Zhinhu even began to question his vision, believing that the young man was not Li Shin but someone else.

"What?! To think you'd be able to avoid one of my attacks. You have a lot of talent, so how about the next one?" Kong Lu's expression remained cold, and he grabbed at Li Shin once more.

Nobody dared to blink because they couldn't believe it. A scumbag competing with Kong Lu! Are they all hallucinating?

Shen Zhinhu couldn't possibly be that brave, but he was certain that Li Shin would not be able to avoid him a second time.

But before Kong Lu could grab it again, Li Shin's confident voice rang out. "Throughout this time, you operated the Qi energy within the body with great difficulty, requiring several times the effort."

Surprisingly, Kong Lu looked perplexed when he heard Li Shin's words. Nonetheless, he moved closer to Li Shin, trying to hear every word he said.

Li Shin's voice could be heard once more "Even when you circulate Qi energy throughout your body, which you are currently doing. Your dantian will undoubtedly cause tearing pain. Every muscle in your body, including your arms, will become sore and weak. Not only that, but I'm afraid your body will be very cold for some time, and you won't dare to move because of the pain you're experiencing."

When everyone in the room saw Kong Lu arrive in front of Li Shin, they all assumed that the Li family's trash young master was finished. They all noticed, however, that Kong Lu, who was so close to Li Shin, had abruptly stopped.

"How did you know about my condition?" Kong Lu wondered.
