The three of them packed up the Divine Fire Rhinoceros and set off with Chu Tian towards their base.
As they approached the base mentioned by the three, Chu Tian began to hear the sound of flowing water.
Using his spiritual perception, he quickly saw a large waterfall, and behind the waterfall, there was a fairly large cave.
The cave had been prepared and stocked with a lot of supplies, and there was even a small hot spring near the back.
Chu Tian thought this was a good temporary base, and it was well hidden. It was unlikely that anyone would easily find it.
Chu Tian waved his hand, activated his psychic power, and created a space the size of one person by separating the waterfall's water. He then flew in first.
Before long, the woman from the group also entered the waterfall and said to Chu Tian, "Senior, we were in a sorry state earlier. I'll go clean up inside first."
Without much delay, the woman walked into the cave, where there was a hot spring.
Chu Tian had no interest in peeking at someone taking a bath. He used his spiritual perception to check and saw the two men washing themselves in the waterfall.
After about half an hour, the three of them finished washing up and got ready.
Chu Tian looked at the leader of the men, a tall and handsome young man in his twenties, wearing a combat suit that highlighted his muscular contours.
The other man was a burly middle-aged man, the highest-ranked member of the group with a C-level.
The last woman was elegant and looked to be in her early twenties. She seemed like a refined lady, but her black combat suit with gold trim accentuated her excellent figure.
However, Chu Tian's heart belonged to someone else, so he had no interest in this woman. After such a long journey, he was more interested in the alcohol they mentioned.
"Senior, my name is Lin Yang, and I'm the leader of this three-person team," said the burly middle-aged man, and he proceeded to introduce the other two. "This is my younger brother, Lin Xing." The handsome young man nodded to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian nodded in return.
Then, Lin Yang introduced their team's last member. "This is my sister, Lin Xi," the burly middle-aged man said hurriedly.
When Chu Tian heard Lin Yang's words, he looked at the three of them. Lin Yang didn't seem to resemble Lin Xing and Lin Xi as their older brother. However, there was a slight resemblance between Lin Xing and Lin Xi.
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Well, I came here for a drink. After having some, I'll be leaving."
"Senior, can you tell us your name?" Lin Xi suddenly asked.
Chu Tian didn't intend to interact with these people, so he gave a fake name, "I'm called Lu Ren."
"It turns out you're Senior Lu," Lin Xi continued, "But we haven't seen Senior Lu at the Sixth Human Base. You're probably not from our Sixth Human Base, right?"
Chu Tian frowned and gave her a stern look, exuding his spiritual pressure. Lin Xi suddenly felt like a fierce beast was pouncing on her and nearly lost her footing. She turned pale, and sweat dripped from her forehead. It was clear that she had been frightened.
Lin Yang seemed to notice something was amiss and quickly changed the topic, "Lin Xi, you're good at cooking. Go prepare something delicious for us. We'll have a few drinks with Senior Lu today."
With that, Lin Xi hurried to the makeshift stove on the side. Lin Xing followed to assist her.
However, Chu Tian could sense that these three had ulterior motives. He decided to pretend to meditate and used his spiritual power to observe what they were up to.
Lin Yang, who had been sitting not far away, suddenly stood up and walked towards the simple stove in their base. Lin Xi was cooking, and when she saw Lin Yang approaching, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes. She took out a communicator and typed a message.
Lin Xi: Emperor's Tyrant Spear, this should be Chu Tian, the one wanted by the Federation, right?
Lin Yang: It's most likely him. Put the poison in the wine and increase the dosage. Make sure you and Lin Xing take the antidote beforehand.
Lin Xing: Big brother, should we inform the Federation or the Clinton family?
Lin Yang: Why should we inform them? We'd be sharing the credit with them for no reason. Besides, this time, we've prepared a poison even A+ ranked talent warriors and beasts can't resist. He's just a B+ ranked talent warrior. Be careful.
After this exchange, Lin Yang waved his hand and returned to his previous spot.
Lin Xi and Lin Xing continued pretending that nothing had happened and focused on cooking.
Chu Tian's spiritual perception had caught all of this, and he couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
Chu Tian possessed the innate talent to be immune to any poison or toxin. He had no fear of them trying to poison him. He decided to see what these three were planning next.
After about half an hour, Chu Tian smelled the aroma of food, and then Lin Yang, standing outside the alert zone, softly called out, "Senior, Senior Lu."
Hearing the call, Chu Tian pretended to come out of meditation and looked at the table not far away, where there was food and a lot of wine. He smiled and said, "You've gone to a lot of trouble."
"Senior, what are you talking about? If it weren't for you saving us, we might have been trampled to death by the Divine Fire Rhinoceros," Lin Yang hurriedly said, leading Chu Tian to the head of the table.
After all four of them were seated, Lin Xi quickly took out four bottles of wine covered in dust. She also brought out four cups with ice cubes in them. Then, she said to Chu Tian, "This wine has a history of several hundred years. We found it in a very well-preserved winery. Senior, you're in luck."
Hearing Lin Xi's words, Chu Tian smiled and grabbed a bottle in front of him, poured a glass, smelled it, and said, "Not bad, it does seem quite aged." After speaking, he downed the glass in one gulp.
Seeing Chu Tian drink the wine, the three Lin siblings couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking their plan was working.
"Senior, you're too polite," Lin Yang said with a smile. "Please enjoy the meal."
Lin Xi and Lin Xing also continued to act as if nothing had happened and began to serve the food.
Chu Tian, with his spiritual perception, had seen everything and couldn't help but sneer inwardly. After all, he was immune to any poison, and he wanted to see what these three were going to do next.
