Translator: Silavin The Spiritual Flow Realm, in other words, a Mid Stage Human Grade Alchemy Master! Everyone knew what this meant – any Human Grade Alchemy Master could hold a respectable position even among the Three Sects and One Manor. What more, one who had reached the Spiritual Flow Realm! What people found most unacceptable was… Qin Yichen’s age. He was simply too young! Who could say he would stop at this level? Being so young and in the Spiritual Flow Realm, if he took just one step further, he could become an Elder even at the Ten Corner Alchemy Manor. As for the Three Great Sects, it would be an honour to have him as their Guest Officer. His future potential was limitless! The expressions on the faces of the Zhao Family members were quite a sight to behold. Such a young Human Grade Alchemy Master had received cold shoulders and mockery from the Zhao Family. Especially the hot-tempered Sixth Elder, who now did not know where to put his old decrepit face. They had even thought he had ulterior motives toward their Zhao Family. Zhao Wengting was now internally rejoicing. Fortunately, he had not repaid kindness with enmity. Otherwise, the Zhao Family would have made another powerful enemy. At this point, he was almost certain that Zhao Yarong had been saved by Qin Yichen. The Xiang Family Patriarch, Xiang Renhan, shared the same thought. Although Qin Yichen did not show Lightning Attribute Yuan Energy earlier, it was perfectly normal for such a young Alchemy Master to possess some Technique to conceal it. Xiang Renhan’s face was very gloomy now, his eyes flickering with a penetrating coldness. [This boy must not be allowed to live!] These few words were all that occupied his mind. He was a massive hidden danger that could bring catastrophic disaster to his Xiang Family! “Master Qingquan…” Xiang Renhan turned his gaze to Master Qingquan. Hmph! Master Qingquan snorted coldly. After consuming another Pill, he had recovered, his eyes narrowed as he stared sharply at Qin Yichen, “You ignorant Junior, you dare to launch a sneak attack against me!?” He did not harbour much hatred toward Qin Yichen, but rather intense jealousy! He had reached his current position step by step, yet this youth before him had already achieved what was nearly his life’s peak at such a young age. Jealousy had twisted his mind, and his target had shifted from Zhao Yarong to Qin Yichen. “Launch a sneak attack against you?” Qin Yichen sneered with disdain. This so-called Master, although he had broken through to the Spiritual Flow Realm, had clearly relied on medicine and Pills to advance. One could say he would be stuck at the Spiritual Flow Realm for life. Moreover, Master Qingquan’s attainment and mastery over Spiritual Energy was even inferior to Chairman Hai! This was despite his higher Spiritual Energy cultivation! [How pathetic. No wonder a small Family like the Xiang Family could get him to come running with just a few benefits. Otherwise, how could a true great Alchemy Master from a Major Sect appear in such a small city?] “You’re not even worthy of me needing to launch a sneak attack against you!” Qin Yichen’s latter words undoubtedly ignited Master Qingquan’s fury. “Such arrogance!” Master Qingquan roared, immediately unleashing his Spiritual Energy, covering Qin Yichen. “Be careful!” Sensing the powerful and intimidating Spiritual Energy surging forth, Zhao Yarong’s beautiful face changed as she warned Qin Yichen. “With such trivial skills, are you looking to embarrass yourself?” Qin Yichen gave her a reassuring look, standing there without even bothering to move. As his words fell, with a mere thought, he formed a giant invisible hand that directly dispersed the incoming wave of Spiritual Energy and pressed back against it. Rumble… The giant hand came pressing down with a thunderous sound, giving Master Qingquan the feeling of a mountain falling upon him. He bit his tongue and resisted with all his might, but only managed to hold on for two breaths’ time. Bang! Puh! With a muffled grunt, Master Qingquan spat blood and flew backward. In just one exchange, Master Qingquan, of the same Spiritual Flow Realm, had already been defeated. “My Divine Soul Bead! You bastard, you dare to destroy my cultivation…” Master Qingquan spat blood, clutching his agonizing head with both hands as he miserably wailed out in grief. His Divine Soul Bead had actually cracked! Siiii! An intake of cold breath immediately spread through the watching crowd, their eyes filled with shock and terror as they looked at Qin Yichen. Originally, they had thought Qin Yichen was a ‘greenhouse flower’, that his Spiritual Flow Realm cultivation was a useless ornament – beautiful to see but not capable of doing anything. They had not expected that the real useless ornament was none other than Master Qingquan. “Heavens…” The Zhao Family members were completely dumbfounded. Qin Yichen had effortlessly defeated Master Qingquan! Zhao Yarong’s small mouth hung open, forgetting to close it. Everyone had thought this would be a great battle, but they had not expected it to end so quickly, and with such overwhelming dominance. “Master Qingquan…” Xiang Renhan looked at the unconscious Master Qingquan, his heart trembling violently. He turned around, roaring at Qin Yichen, “How dare you use such brutal force against an Alchemy Master from the Northern Depths Sect!?” He emphasized the words ‘Northern Depths Sect’ particularly heavily. This was also why the Zhao Family had to swallow their anger even when Master Qingquan killed Zhao Dian. “Today, my Xiang Family will capture you to apologize to the Northern Depths Sect!” Following Xiang Renhan’s glance, several Xiang Family experts moved to surround Qin Yichen. “Xiang Renhan, this is my Zhao Family territory! This matter is not for your Xiang Family to decide upon!” Zhao Wengting coldly snorted, and several Zhao Family experts stepped forward to block them. Immediately, the atmosphere became tense, with signs of a great battle about to erupt. “Zhao Wengting, do you know what you’re doing? Don’t you fear the Northern Depths Sect’s wrath!?” Xiang Renhan berated through gritted teeth. He was furious. But he had no options. In a direct confrontation, his Xiang Family absolutely could not gain any advantage against the Zhao Family. Not with it came to an actual fight. In the end, it would only result in mutual destruction at best, and their side losing at worst. This was not what he wanted! These experts were either painstakingly cultivated by his Xiang Family or invited at great cost – losing even one would deeply pain him. Hmph! Only a cold snort returned. The Zhao Family had connections with the Ten Corner Alchemy Manor, and besides, Master Qingquan had come to their door challenging them to an Alchemy Duel – the Zhao Family could not be faulted for this. Moreover, would the Northern Depths Sect, such a behemoth, make a big fuss over someone who had been crippled? It was a clearly unrealistic prospect. The Zhao Family’s firm stance made Xiang Renhan feel like he had bitten into a rock – with his teeth broken. Unfortunately, he could do nothing about this rock. However, Xiang Renhan knew very clearly what consequences would befall the Xiang Family if they left Qin Yichen unchecked. “Kill!” With a low shout, numerous Xiang Family experts immediately charged toward the Zhao Family’s direction, with only one target – Qin Yichen.
