The Extreme Alchemist of the Mighty Cauldron

Chapter 640: Chapter 640: Fang Lin’s Strength

“What kind of status does the Crown Prince have? Why would he stoop to your level and fight with a lowly ant like you? You overestimate yourself way too much.” The middle-aged man said coldly. Even though the intent to kill was suffocating, he managed to keep it in check, not instantly making his move against Fang Lin.

Fang Lin smiled lightly, “There is nothing worthwhile to discuss with a servant like you. If the Crown Prince does not dare to step forward, then I will go to the other royal family members. I will kill every one of them to see if he will not care about their lives.”

Having heard Fang Lin’s proclamation, some of the members of the royal family in the crowd paled, but then they remembered that the Crown Prince would absolutely not sit back and watch this happen, which gave them some reassurance.

“Since you are so obstinate, do not blame me for being brutal. I will break all your limbs before taking you to the Crown Prince,” the middle-aged man stated. He suddenly lunged forward, initiating the offensive.

Waiting for the man to make his move, Fang Lin showed a slight smile at the corner of his mouth as soon as he saw the man charge towards him.

Boom!!!

With a palm thrust, he clashed directly with the middle-aged man’s palm, immediately generating surging Inner Strength. The middle-aged man’s complexion changed, and he backed away at once.

Fang Lin stood there holding with a roast meat in one hand scarcely moving, a slight hint of disdain visible on his face.

“Servants will always be servants, you’re too weak. Might as well let the Crown Prince come, or else I really won’t be interested,” Fang Lin shook his head and said.

At this scene, many people revealed expressions of shock as the middle-aged man was put at a disadvantage, repelled by Fang Lin with a single strike.

Has Fang Lin become this powerful?

The middle-aged man was secretly surprised. His strength was second only to the Crown Prince’s old grey-attired servant, having reached the Sixth Layer of Heavenly Origin.

By rights, dealing with Fang Lin should be easy, yet unexpectedly, Fang Lin’s strength was much stronger than he could’ve imagined.

“Looks like you have already refined the Sacred Medicine,” the middle-aged man said, his face turning grave.

Fang Lin nodded and said with a smile, “The taste of the Unfading Flower of Seven Spirits is quite good. Unfortunately, the Crown Prince won’t have the chance to enjoy it.”

The crowd became restless. It was no wonder that Fang Lin had grown so much stronger. It turns out it was due to the influence of the Sacred Medicine.

Thinking back to the time when Fang Lin had forcibly snatched the Unfading Flower of Seven Spirits from Zhou Yishui’s hand, people felt like they were in a dream.

“Even though you swallowed the Sacred Medicine, you are still nothing but an ant, destined to not make any significant impact,” the middle-aged man roared. He launched himself like an arrow let loose from its bow, instantly arriving in front of Fang Lin.

“So fast!” The crowd gasped.

Fang Lin was slightly surprised as well, but he reacted quickly and threw a punch at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man quickly dodged Fang Lin’s punch and swiftly aimed for Fang Lin’s waist.

“Playing dirty?” Fang Lin smirked, taking a swift kick at the man sending him back.

The man heavily fell, feeling as if blood was stuck in his throat. His face alternately flushing and paling, and he was extremely uncomfortable.

“Doesn’t it feel terrible not being able to cough up blood?” Fang Lin jeered.

The middle-aged man thumped his chest forcibly and finally spat out a mouthful of blood, only then did he feel more at ease.

Without saying a word, the middle-aged man once again initiated an attack. His strength was formidable, and his Physical Strength even more impressive, hence he was planning to capture Fang Lin relying on his physical prowess.

Unfortunately, he met Fang Lin who was also strong in the aspect of Physical Strength, but Fang Lin was not at all like his past-self.

Thump!

A punch landed on the middle-aged man’s shoulder, instantly breaking his left shoulder blade and causing his arm to hang loosely by his side.

Fang Lin fiercely struck, not giving the middle-aged man any chance to retreat. He landed another punch right on the man’s other shoulder.

This time, the man’s arms were entirely immobilised and hung loosely at his sides, his face extremely pale.

Thump!

Fang Lin gave him another kick, sending the middle-aged man flying. This kick was so strong that even though the man had a strong physique, at least three or four of his ribs were broken.

Thud!

The middle-aged man fell onto the ground, his face covered in dust and blood spurt out from his mouth. His eyes were filled with grimace and anger.

Fang Lin stood above the man, looking down at him, but did not make another move.

“I’ll spare your life for now, bring your master here,” Fang Lin said with a smile.

Struggling to stand up, the middle-aged man stared at Fang Lin with frosty eyes, “Even if your power has greatly increased and you managed to defeat me, you will never match up to the Crown Prince.”

Without even sparing him a glance, Fang Lin said, “Get lost. Go back and tell Zhou Yishui to come see me.”

The middle-aged man clenched his teeth in rage. He wanted to tear Fang Lin apart but unfortunately, he was not as powerful as Fang Lin. For now, he could only swallow his anger.

The middle-aged man left the scene, having arrived with great momentum, only to depart in a state of disarray.

Those who witnessed this battle were in disbelief. In such short time, Fang Lin had become this powerful? He had defeated even the trusted aides of the Crown Prince with a few punches and kicks.

Could it be, that this Fang Lin could really challenge the Crown Prince and become as powerful as Mei Yingxue and Dugu Ruoxu?

Many people shook their heads, thinking if that was the case, it would be far too terrifying. Even with the miraculous Sacred Medicine, it shouldn’t be possible for Fang Lin’s strength to have increased this much.

Yet if he did not have enough confidence or strength, how could Fang Lin dare to challenge the Crown Prince? Unless he was out of his mind.

Of course, no one would believe Fang Lin had gone insane. If he dared to do this, it must be because he had some degree of assurance that he could survive while dealing with Zhou Yishui.

After the middle-aged man left, nobody from the Crown Prince’s faction made an appearance, nor was any word heard from them, as if they had completely forgotten Fang Lin’s existence.

Many people were puzzled, wondering why there had been no reaction from the Crown Prince’s side. Could it be that they did not have the confidence to face Fang Lin’s challenge?

Soon, news trickled down that the Crown Prince has gone into a dangerous place to seek his fortune, hence he had no time to bother about Fang Lin.

This news seemed reasonable to the crowd, the Crown Prince was just too busy to concern himself with Fang Lin, it was not because he was afraid of him.

This made some people who were looking forward to a face-off between Fang Lin and the Crown Prince a little disappointed, as it seemed unlikely for the Crown Prince to have a showdown with Fang Lin anytime soon.

Hearing about this, Fang Lin also felt disappointed. He even wanted to inquire about the hazardous place that Zhou Yishui had ventured into, intending to follow him into it.

However, nobody knew about it, they only knew Zhou Yishui had gone to a perilous place, but not the specifics.

While Zhou Yishui did not show up, another person, who Fang Lin awaited, did.
