The crowd parted to make way, and a young man not yet twenty years old walked slowly forward, accompanied by a ‘pet’ that looked like a Dog but was not one.
The young man wore a hemp robe, his face as stern as if carved from stone, imposing without anger.
It was none other than Qin Yichen, who had rushed back from thousands of kilometres away from the Northern Wasteland!
“Didn’t he go to take the Alchemy Tower Test? How is he back again?” Everyone was confused, and King Lu Heze, who had barely managed to stand up, also had a drastic change in his expression.
“Quick, leave! Don’t worry about us!” His voice was shrill and desperate. At this point, if the An Family was determined to eliminate their Heavenly Unicorn Lu Family, they had no power to resist.
The only chance to turn the tables laid with Qin Yichen!
As long as Qin Yichen entered the Alchemy Tower, even if the An Family’s power was great, they would not dare to openly do anything to Qin Yichen. But now, it was different…
“Hehe, another one has come to die. Perfect. We’ll catch them all in one net and eliminate any future troubles!” After a brief pause, An Ranqian’s killing intent immediately spread.
After all, Qin Yichen had only obtained a spot for the Alchemy Tower Test. Right now, the Alchemy Tower did not know how talented Qin Yichen was. With his An Family standing strong in the Central Province for a thousand years, as long as they paid a certain price, they could still cover up this matter.
He had murderous intentions, but Qin Yichen’s steps remained unhurried, and he was walking straight towards him.
Just as An Ranqian was puzzled, Qin Yichen directly pointed at him, and a cold, emotionless voice came from his mouth. “Kill him!”
*Awooo…!* As soon as he finished speaking, the pet that just looked like a Dog suddenly let out a howl. An aura comparable to a Mid Stage Spirit Realm expert suddenly swept out, pressing towards An Ranqian.
Xiao Bai was no gentle creature. Even when it first met Qin Yichen, it had planned to swallow him whole, only changing its mind because of the Dragon aura he felt from Qin Yichen.
It was born from Death Energy, inherently, it was a vicious and murderous being. Now, with Qin Yichen’s command, it immediately revealed its true nature.
Its body was almost solidified with murderous aura, swirling around it like smoke. It truly looked like a Demonic Beast from Hell, walking in the Human world, terrifying people to their Souls.
“What the Hell is this thing?” That murderous aura greatly affected even An Ranqian, a Mid Stage Spirit Realm expert, making him unable to calm his mind. His pupils dilated sharply, and a flash of panic appeared in his eyes.
He, an Elder of the An Family’s direct line, actually panicked at this moment!
Qin Yichen didn’t pay any attention to him at all, instead walking straight towards Lu Linghan, taking out a Pill and making her take it.
“Cough cough…”
After coughing up blood, Lu Linghan slowly regained consciousness. Looking at the familiar face before her, her eyes were misty, “It’s nice to dream of you one last time before dying…”
The might of a Mid Stage Spirit Realm expert was simply not something that someone like her, who had just entered the Spirit Realm and had not even stabilised her foundation, could withstand.
Just now, if it was not for her Yin Meridian protecting her body, she would have had no chance of survival under An Ranqian’s attack.
“You are my Wife, Qin Yichen’s Wife. I won’t allow you to die. No one can take you away from me!” Qin Yichen’s warm voice sounded by her ear, finally waking her up.
“Is it really you?” Lu Linghan’s eyes showed an expression of disbelief, with a hint of joy, but it instantly turned to panic and worry. Just as she was about to warn him about something, she discovered that An Ranqian was being forced to repeatedly retreat by a strange creature.
That Hellish murderous aura directly terrified Souls. Coupled with Xiao Bai’s own cultivation realm not being below An Ranqian’s, how could An Ranqian be a match for Xiao Bai?
*Bang!* With another strike, An Ranqian was directly pinned down by Xiao Bai. The almost tangible murderous aura simultaneously caused indelible damage to both his Soul and body.
“I am an Elder of the An Family, you dare to kill me!?” An Ranqian spat blood and cried out.
Looking at him, now like a stray Dog, the onlookers could not help but gasp in unison, too shocked to say a word.
Who could have imagined that in this situation, Qin Yichen’s return could actually turn the table! After all, that was an Elder of a Millennial Family! To them, that was an existence as vast as Heaven.
Back then, Du Junxiong had suppressed all Forces in the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty, including the Royal Family, with just his title – a direct disciple of an Elder from a Millennial Family.
Yet now, Qin Yichen had trampled all of that underfoot.
“Just kill him!” With Qin Yichen’s order, Xiao Bai unhesitatingly stomped down, crushing An Ranqian’s entire chest, then swallowed him in one gulp.
The remaining Spirit Realm experts from the An Family naturally could not escape either.
*Burp…* After swallowing them all, Xiao Bai let out a satisfied burp, then leisurely returned to Qin Yichen’s side, wagging its tail like a harmless small Dog.
But as its gaze swept past, even those watching from afar felt their legs go weak. Some even collapsed to the ground, unable to bear it, their faces full of fear and panic.
Having seen its ferocious side, how could anyone dare to underestimate this small ‘Dog’ that looked harmless?!
It was only harmless in relation to Qin Yichen alone.
Even King Lu Heze and Zhou Xiaocang kept their distance, not daring to come close, as if afraid this ferocious creature might swallow them in one bite.
The cleanup was naturally left to King Lu Heze.
Although Xiao Bai had dealt with An Ranqian, Qin Yichen’s expression became even more solemn.
Killing an Elder of the An Family meant completely falling out with the An Family, a total break. In the future, the An Family would definitely use various other means to deal with them. Even if he entered the Alchemy Tower, he knew that he would not be completely safe. Not to mention the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty’s Lu Family, which was out in the open.
“Father-in-law, didn’t you plan to send Linghan to the Lu Family?” This point puzzled Qin Yichen.
Logically, given Lu Linghan’s current situation, as long as she entered the Lu Family, the entire Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty would surely receive the Lu Family’s protection. At that time, even if the An Family wanted to make a move against the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty again, they would have to deal with the Millennial Lu Family.
However, after all this time, King Lu Heze showed no intention of passing information to the Lu Family.
“Haaaaa…” King Lu Heze sighed, his gaze turning to Lu Jingtao, who closed his eyes and said nothing.
Qin Yichen learned that the Ancestors of the Heavenly Unicorn Lu Family were actually from the direct line of the Millennial Lu Family, and were even the heir to the Lu Family Patriarch at that time. But that heir was forcefully usurped by his stronger Younger Brother, and stripped of his cultivation. He was later thrown to this barren place now called the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.
This was the reason why the Lu Family ignored this branch in the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.
[So that’s the situation. It had suddenly become a lot trickier…] Qin Yichen could certainly protect himself, but there was no guarantee for the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.
Just as Qin Yichen was worrying, he saw Little Ling’er dragging Xiao Bai by the ear, heading outside.
