Translator: Silavin “Master Qingquan…” Zhao Dian gritted his teeth, resolutely deciding not to engage in an Alchemy Duel with the latter – there was simply no need! Hum… However, just as Zhao Dian cupped his hands, preparing to refuse the Alchemy Duel, Master Qingquan’s eyes flashed, and a terrifying wave of Spiritual Energy spread out. Under the pressure of this terrifying Spiritual Energy, fierce winds arose, enveloping the entire area. The pressure caused many with insufficient cultivation to collapse to their knees. Before Zhao Dian could react, a frightening wave of Spiritual Energy had already violently struck him. Boom! Under countless stunned gazes, Zhao Dian’s body collapsed. As he fell, his eyes were wide open, but there was no trace of life left in them. Clearly, his Spiritual Energy and even his Soul had been destroyed by Master Qingquan! “Zhao Dian!” Several Elders from the Zhao Family cried out in anguish, rushing forward to support Zhao Dian, but blood was flowing from all of his seven apertures. Worse, there was not a trace of life left in his still warm body. Even Heaven would find it impossible to save him now. One of Positively Tranquil City’s top Alchemy Masters had been eliminated within seconds by Master Qingquan, demonstrating the enormous gap between a Human Grade Alchemy Master and a Fully Accomplished Spirit Realm Alchemy Master! At this moment, except for the anguished cries of several Elders, the entire scene was silent. Obviously, everyone was stunned by Master Qingquan’s merciless actions. Zhao Wengting did not go to support Zhao Dian, his expression was completely grave. He knew that the Xiang Family’s target this time was not Zhao Dian, but Zhao Yarong whom he was protecting behind him! If Zhao Yarong died, the Xiang Family would certainly have no reservations about using the Sect’s power to crush their Zhao Family! “Weren’t you boasting earlier? Zhao Wengting, continue sending out your Zhao Family’s Alchemy Masters, let us see just how many excellent Alchemy Masters the self-proclaimed Alchemy Family of Positively Tranquil City has!” At this moment, Xiang Renhan’s mocking voice rang out. The dazed onlookers finally came to their senses, and immediately, countless gazes turned toward Zhao Wengting. Facing a Human Grade Alchemy Master, would anyone from their Zhao Family dare to engage in an Alchemy Duel? Zhao Yarong bit her lips, looking at the lifeless Zhao Dian. Crystal tears welling up in her beautiful eyes. All of her Alchemy Skills had been taught to her personally by Zhao Dian! “Father!” Zhao Yarong called out. “Absolutely not!” Zhao Wengting extended his arm, blocking Zhao Yarong. At this moment, he finally understood why Xiang Renhan had brought so many onlookers – he had anticipated that their Family would cower before a Human Grade Alchemy Master! However, even if it meant being labeled as a coward, he would absolutely not allow his Daughter, the Zhao Family’s last hope, to perish here! “Patriarch Zhao, don’t disappoint me. Since you care so much about your Daughter, why don’t you come up and have an Alchemy Duel with me yourself?” Across from them, Master Qingquan spoke casually, seemingly growing impatient. These words caused the expressions of the Zhao Family members to change drastically once again, anger rising in the eyes of every Zhao Family member. Several hot-tempered younger members of the Zhao Family even nearly jumped out. However, upon seeing Zhao Wengting’s grim expression, they chose to remain silent. When one’s skill was inferior, who could they blame for taking a step back!? “What’s wrong? You are an Alchemy Family, yet you don’t even have the courage to have an Alchemy Duel?” Still seemingly angry about Zhao Dian’s earlier arrogant words, Master Qingquan’s gaze swept over the Zhao Family members, finally landing on Zhao Yarong, who stood behind Zhao Wengting with tears in her eyes. “If you won’t choose, then I’ll help make the choice for you.” Master Qingquan smiled faintly, and that recently dispersed Spiritual Energy pressure emerged once again, enveloping the area. Under this pressure, everyone found it extremely difficult to breathe. [What should I do… what should I do…] Zhao Yarong’s heart was in chaos. She knew the Xiang Family was targeting her, but even if she wanted to sacrifice herself to save the Family, her Father would absolutely not agree to it. Suddenly, at the crucial moment, as if thinking of something, she desperately cast her gaze in a particular direction. Seeing her movement, several Zhao Family Elders followed her line of sight, and upon discovering that at the end of that gaze was that youth whom they held in contempt, their briefly hopeful hearts instantly filled with despair once again. What was wrong with Zhao Yarong – how could she possibly think that this young man had any ability to resist this oppressive force? Haaaaa… Seeing Zhao Yarong in this state, Qin Yichen, who had originally planned not to get involved anymore and was preparing to leave, let out a sigh. “Since no one is volunteering, I’ll choose my opponent myself. Little girl, you’ll do!” At this moment, Master Qingquan’s voice, which filled the Zhao Family members with despair, rang out again. He pointed directly at Zhao Yarong, clearly having lost interest and wanting to directly resolve things. “Master Qingquan, Yarong is the one that we are recommending to the Ten Corner Alchemy Manor…” Zhao Wengting stepped forward, attempting to use the Ten Corner Alchemy Manor to make the other party show some restraint. However, this was destined to be futile. “The Ten Corner Alchemy Manor doesn’t accept people who don’t even have the courage for an Alchemy Duel. Little girl, come, let me teach you some Alchemy Techniques.” Master Qingquan smiled as he said to Zhao Yarong. As he spoke, a powerful force surged toward Zhao Yarong. Once he dealt with this little girl, his mission would be complete. Though he did think doing this was beneath him, the compensation the Xiang Family offered him was truly hard to refuse. “You’re not qualified to guide her!” Along with a cold snort, Master Qingquan’s powerful Spiritual Energy was directly scattered. The previously smug Master Qingquan immediately groaned, his face turning pale. The one who had acted was, naturally, Qin Yichen. He certainly would not stand by and watch Master Qingquan harm Zhao Yarong. Following this scene, everyone’s attention once again fell on Qin Yichen. Haaa… Qin Yichen sighed. He did not want to cause trouble, but trouble always seemed to find him. It was impossible to avoid even if he wanted to. Xiang Renhan watched in shock, clearly not having reacted in time. The Zhao Family members were the same. No one had expected that the youth who had been keeping such a low profile would now display such powerful strength. “Spiritual Flow Realm…” From Master Qingquan’s mouth came these words, spoken one by one, his gaze locked firmly on Qin Yichen. Such a young man, yet he possessed such high Spiritual Energy cultivation!? Siiii… Hearing these words, everyone around could not help but draw in a sharp breath, their eyes filled with shock.
