"We’ll meet again soon, and then you’ll be begging me..." Lin Tian strode forward, casually speaking, and walked with the Seven Stars steps towards the Jinling City District. Coincidentally, both Bi Zhenyu and Yin Liuyin were students of Yanjing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, making them Lin Tian’s future senior sisters. Thinking of this, Lin Tian reached into the storage bag and took out an item. It was a school badge, showing signs of contamination. Besides that, it was severely damaged by trampling. The name on the original school badge was now indistinguishable and extremely blurred. The only clear part was the lettering of the Medical Skill Department of Yanjing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Naturally, this belonged to a girl Lin Tian stumbled upon in Bin City; she had something peculiar that caused the Nine-Turned Chaotic Pearl in Lin Tian’s mind to react violently, giving him a splitting headache. Back then, he couldn’t leave his information with the girl, as he passed out from the intense pain. In the end, he was only left with this damaged school badge. At least, Lin Tian had a clue about the girl. Given its connection to the Nine-Turned Chaotic Pearl in his mind, the girl’s identity or the item she had was extraordinary. After finishing the college entrance exam, Lin Tian decisively chose to enter Yanjing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. "I hope to find it! Anything connected to the Nine-Turned Chaotic Pearl is incredibly important to me!" Lin Tian spoke softly to himself, a thoughtful expression on his face. As Lin Tian reached the Jinling City District, the sun set behind the western mountains. The city of Jinling began to light up as night markets gradually became bustling. Passing through the lively streets, Lin Tian arrived at the Qinhuai River alongside the Jinling Ancient City, where it was even more crowded with tourists at night. Lin Tian walked along the Qinhuai River bank, strolling casually. His Divine Sense expanded, enveloping the area around the Qinhuai River. But he did not spot the girl named Bei Pingxue. Lin Tian wasn’t too surprised though. The other party had mentioned heading to East Sea City, and likely wouldn’t return so soon. While passing by, Lin Tian hoped to try his luck in seeing Bei Pingxue again and learn about the mysterious Seventh Floor. He also wanted to see if he could encounter others from the Seventh Floor. "Never mind, I’ll head straight to East Sea to bid farewell to Shu Yi..." Lin Tian stood amid the surging crowd, whispered to himself, and turned away, displaying a solitary figure. He walked deeper into the Jinling Ancient City along the Qinhuai River; the surroundings grew quieter. Some old streets in the Ancient City, despite having luxurious bars and restaurants, were quite deserted outside the venues at night. After all, except for the Qinhuai River, other areas of the Ancient City were sparsely populated at night. Lin Tian intended to find a secluded corner and take off using his Flying Sword. Suddenly, the sound of car brakes came from behind, followed by a very delighted voice, "Lin... Mr. Lin, what are you doing here!" The pleasant, melodious call made Lin Tian stop in his tracks. The voice was clearly calling him. Lin Tian turned towards the sound and saw several luxury cars parked along the street. When Lin Tian saw a group of young men and women getting off one of the cars, he was taken aback. The source of this content ɪs novel[f]ire.net Four of them, surprisingly, were people he knew. Leading them was Ling Xiaowu, whom Lin Tian had met at Tianxiang Villa before and even helped. Following her were Lee Du, Luuo Qian Die, and Lu Wang. "Mr. Lin, it’s really you!" Ling Xiaowu quickly ran forward, her face full of surprise and delight. The other three followed, respectfully greeting Lin Tian. As one of the Young Masters from their high school, Lu Wang also slightly lowered his posture. Back at Tianxiang Villa, he had witnessed Lin Tian defeat the Young Master from Stone City. Yet, Lin Tian remained unscathed. It was clear that the young man before them had considerable power and was worth befriending. Ling Xiaowu and the other three expressed gratitude towards Lin Tian. Especially Luuo Qian Die, who smiled charmingly at Lin Tian, her exquisite face showing elegance. She respectfully said to Lin Tian, "Thanks to your help, Mr. Lin, I was freed from a predicament. Your grace is beyond repayment. Here I can only express my heartfelt thanks again for your rescue..." "It was just a chance encounter, a casual act!" Lin Tian shook his head and spoke indifferently, while glancing at the high-end cars behind them. A number of stylishly dressed young people, dazzling with jewelry, stepped out of the cars. It was clear that these people came from extraordinary backgrounds. Looking at the scene, Lin Tian asked Ling Xiaowu curiously, "What are you all up to?" "We’re planning a farewell party!" A hint of melancholy appeared on Ling Xiaowu’s delicate face, along with some helplessness and bitterness, as she explained to Lin Tian, "These are our classmates from Jinling’s top high school, about to head to their respective universities since summer break is ending. It means this group might each go their separate ways, uncertain when we’ll meet again! That’s why we decided to hold this farewell gathering." So that’s the reason! A look of realization crossed Lin Tian’s face, as he glanced at Ling Xiaowu and the others, feeling somewhat envious. Having such classmates and friendships was a blessing. Lin Tian nodded slightly to Ling Xiaowu and others, smiling as he prepared to leave on his own. However, Ling Xiaowu quickly ran over, blocking Lin Tian’s path, and sweetly said, "Um... Mr. Lin... Brother Lin, could you join our farewell party? At Tianxiang Villa, you rescued me and Lee Du, and helped Luuo Qian Die greatly. We can’t let you leave without properly thanking you! We’d feel uneasy otherwise!" Beside them, Luuo Qian Die quickly chimed in, saying to Lin Tian again, "Mr. Lin, you helped me a lot, yet I haven’t properly thanked you; it’s just not right! Since we’re holding this farewell party, please join us!" Luuo Qian Die paused, then pointed at Lu Wang and continued, "This time, the party is hosted by our Young Master Lu, and everyone’s free to enjoy themselves!" Lu Wang promptly added, acknowledging Lin Tian’s considerable strength and potentially intimidating background. Desiring to build connections, he quickly joined in, "Mr. Lin, our classmates sincerely invite you, plus it’s to repay your previous assistance. Please grant us this honor! Initially, my actions towards you were overbearing; I hope you forgive me..." Seeing them so persuasively, Lin Tian noted the time, knowing he could reach East Sea City with a Flying Sword in about ten minutes. Not minding a short delay of an hour or two, he agreed, "Alright, as we’ve met again, it’s fate, let’s go have some fun then!" Ling Xiaowu’s eyes brightened with delight, her face filled with joy as she exuberantly cheered. She took the lead to guide Lin Tian towards a tower-style building with a strong ancient charm. A rustic stele stood beside the entrance, faintly inscribed with the words—Le Ba!
