Everyone stared at Lin Chen, dumbfounded. This guy was incredibly good at pulling a fast one.

Clearly, he was smacking someone's behind for some cheap thrill, yet he shamelessly claimed it was for medical treatment.

"Medical treatment!" The Hall Master of the Pantheon, Eliza, narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, a murderous intent surging.

Lin Chen sniffed the fragrance on his hand and smiled faintly: "Miss Alice, if I'm not mistaken, do you often feel dizzy, sometimes hallucinate, and these symptoms are most pronounced at midnight?"

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Alice was instantly stunned.

Alice's headaches had been troubling her for a long time, but she had only confided this to her mentor.

Moreover, for the sake of stabilizing Alice's status in the Pantheon, her headache issue was known to no one other than her mentor.

"How, how did you know?" Alice asked, bewildered.

Lin Chen chuckled softly: "Even though I smacked your behind just now, each hit targeted an acupuncture point. If you touch your forehead now, isn't it hot?"

Alice instinctively touched her forehead, and indeed it was warm.

Lin Chen continued: "I noticed you were sick the first time I saw you, so I kindly decided to treat you."

"Originally, every time you used True Qi inside you, your head would feel a stabbing pain. Try again now," Lin Chen said with a smile.

Alice paused, attempting to use the Qi within her, and sure enough, the stabbing pain disappeared.

"How is this possible? Did you really cure my illness?" Alice exclaimed in disbelief.

Gah!

The room fell into dead silence.

Everyone had thought Lin Chen was bluffing, but looking at Alice's expression, they realized it was true.

Eliza blinked her beautiful eyes, and the killing intent on her body instantly dissipated, looking at Lin Chen with a hint of deeper meaning.

She knew of Alice's illness and had tried various methods without any results. She didn't expect Lin Chen to solve it by spanking.

Though the method is somewhat embarrassing to speak of, it indeed cured Alice's illness. If she attacked him, she would be unreasonable.

At this moment, Zhang Sanfeng breathed out a sigh.

Being familiar with Eliza's personality, once she goes berserk, nobody can stop her.

She had already shown killing intent; if she attacked Lin Chen, he would surely intervene too, leading to a lose-lose situation.

"It's real?"

The crowd was instantly speechless; they had thought the Pantheon would end up in a death struggle with Lin Chen, yet the plot suddenly twisted.

Although Lin Chen spanked Alice, it was for healing.

Now, Lin Chen not only had no fault but became Alice's benefactor.

"Alright, if Alice's headache is truly cured, I will let bygones be bygones. But if it recurs, I will take your life," Eliza said coldly, staring at Lin Chen.

"Hey, aren't you being unreasonable? I used True Qi to heal your disciple, yet not a single thank you. By the way, the treatment consists of three cycles; this was just the first. If you want her headaches fully cured, more behind-spanking is necessary. Since you lack sincerity, forget it, you can have the guts to kill me," Lin Chen said, somewhat disgruntled.

"Hiss!"

The crowd was stunned; who was Eliza? She was known as the witch.

Her explosive temper made even Zhang Sanfeng and others dare not act too ostentatiously in front of her, yet this kid dared intimidate her.

"What did you say?" Eliza's face darkened, walking towards Lin Chen step by step.

A powerful aura instantly enveloped Lin Chen.

Zhang Sanfeng was about to intervene but saw Lin Chen signaling him with a look.

"Hmm! Does this kid have another trick up his sleeve?"

Lin Chen smiled lightly: "Lady Eliza, only I can cure her illness; this is her last chance for treatment, or she'll surely die in three years."

Hearing Lin Chen's words, Eliza abruptly stopped her steps, her aura instantly dissipating: "What did you say?"

"This girl was lucky to meet me; otherwise, within a year, Qi would rush to her brain causing instant death. Although I treated her just now, it only prolongs life for three years. Of course, I can cure her, but that depends on my mood."

Eliza's gaze fixed on Lin Chen, her eyes flickering.

Finally, she took a deep breath; Alice was her daughter. Although Lin Chen's words sounded alarming, she dared not take the risk.

She walked to Lin Chen and nodded slightly: "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for treating my daughter. I will trouble you further in ridding her of her illness."

Speaking, Eliza felt a bit resistant inside; Lin Chen had already stated, treating this illness requires spanking. Her words could even translate to, please continue spanking my daughter's behind, Mr. Lin.

The crowd was in an uproar seeing the proud Eliza bowing her head.

With a red face, Alice also stepped up to Lin Chen: "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for your help just now."

Lin Chen didn't seem to care: "I save people based on my mood, and right now, my mood is terrible."

"This!"

The crowd was instantly left speechless.

Eliza and her daughter Alice of the Pantheon were acknowledged as the two great witches, yet this guy dared to show off in front of them.

Eliza didn't get angry but rather laughed: "Mr. Lin, as long as you save my daughter, you will be the benefactor of our Pantheon. We are willing to ally with Huaxia Martial Arts."

Bang!

Eliza's words shocked everyone present, and the faces of the other powerhouses changed.

As everyone knows, the Pantheon is renowned for being free and unrestrained, never allying with anyone.

Among all forces, the Pantheon controls all wandering supernatural people, their power being the most terrifying. Alliance with them would enhance any force like a tiger with wings.

Upon hearing Eliza's words, Zhang Sanfeng's beard trembled three times.

Huaxia Martial Arts has always been targeted by Europe's three martial arts forces united, standing alone. Alliancing with the Pantheon would change the entire scenario.

Lin Chen was waiting for this exact phrase from Eliza: "Seeing how sincere you are, I agree to save your daughter."

Everyone inside the hall looked at Lin Chen in stupor.

In this martial arts world, probably no one but this young man could make the Pantheon bow down.

Lin Chen turned his head and walked towards Tian Biao.

At this moment, Tian Biao was almost dumbstruck; he couldn't have dreamed matters would develop like this.

In his heart, he had practically concluded Lin Chen was doomed, yet now not only did Lin Chen not become the Pantheon's arch-enemy, but he became their benefactor.

Then, Lin Chen's gaze landed on Li Mengli, who was lying on the ground, and his gaze instantly turned cold.

"Mr. Lin, I'm glad you're okay, I was scared to death just now." Tian Biao said with a simpering smile.

Lin Chen let out a cold snort: "Really? You're quite disappointed I wasn't killed by the Pantheon!"
