Chapter 370, A Single Dog’s Resentment

Translator: Silavin

 

Thus, Xia Zilin became the first female to be first in line for the throne in the history of the Great Prosperity Grand Empire!

 

This news quickly spread throughout the entire Grand Empire.

 

From when the Seventh Princess first appeared in the public eye until she ascended to the position, it could be called a miracle!

 

However, those who knew the inside story understood that this miracle was not created by the Seventh Princess herself, but by that youth living in Alchemy Central.

 

Everything he had done since arriving in Twilight City could be called miraculous.

 

Because in the eyes of ordinary people, these were all impossible feats.

 

Killing Li Aofeng! Allying with the Carefree Prince! Destroying the Li Family!

 

He was destined to be a legendary figure!

 

After being next in line for the throne, Xia Zilin did not seem particularly happy. She went to Alchemy Central.

 

“Thank you. Zilin will never forget your kindness in this lifetime!” After arriving before Qin Yichen, she solemnly gave him a bow.

 

“Princess… no, I should say Crown Princess. I guess even calling you that is being too formal. Well, no need to bow. I haven’t done anything in particular…”

 

Just as Qin Yichen was trying to be modest, and as the two were about to exchange meaningful glances, Li Yuanba called out to him from the side with an innocent look, “Hey kid, didn’t I hear you were married to Princess Linghan? What’s the meaning of this? Are you planning to take this woman in as your concubine?”

 

“Damn!” Black lines immediately covered Qin Yichen’s forehead. He had the urge to strangle this bastard.

 

Of course, that was assuming he could overpower him.

 

[When did I ever say I wanted to marry Xia Zilin? I was just appreciating beauty! Appreciating! Does this brute not understand what art is!? When we ‘people’ see beautiful things, we naturally feel happy! Those who love beautiful things tend to be optimistic and cheerful. This was a principle. This is a Dao!]

 

“Erm… I’ll take my leave first…” Just as Qin Yichen was mentally cutting Li Yuanba into pieces, Xia Zilin stood up, lowered her head, bid farewell, and hurriedly left.

 

“Wait. Don’t go.” Qin Yichen reached out his hand wanting to keep her from leaving, but she was too fast.

 

“It’s all your goddamn fault!” Qin Yichen turned around and glared at the carefree Li Yuanba, gritting his teeth as he said, “You definitely did that on purpose!”

 

“You can’t say that. What I did was for your own good.” Li Yuanba chuckled. [For a single bastard like me, breaking up couples whenever possible is also a principle! A Dao!]

 

*Hmph!* Faced with this bastard, who he knew he could not beat in a fight, Qin Yichen could only let out an angry snort to vent his dissatisfaction.

 

However, after his reminder, Qin Yichen realised it was time to go back for a visit, and also time for the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce to expand into Twilight City.

 

…

 

Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.

 

The current Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty was very different from before.

 

After this period of development, the Heavenly Unicorn City had almost become the core of the Northern Region.

 

On this day, a special guest arrived at the Heavenly Unicorn Royal Palace.

 

She wore light clothing with a veil covering her face, concealing her appearance, but this person claimed to be Qin Yichen’s friend and had come to pay a visit.

 

Of course, it was also because she held Qin Yichen’s token that she was able to enter the Royal Palace.

 

“May I ask who this lady is?” Lu Heze asked probingly.

 

These days, relying on some items given by Qin Yichen, he had already advanced to the Spirit Realm, so he could better sense the terrifying aura inadvertently emanating from her body.

 

If the person before him truly came with ill intentions, probably no one in the Royal Palace could stop her.

 

“This humble one is Xia Zilin, I met Qin Yichen in the Twilight Tower.” The veiled Xia Zilin did not conceal her name and answered truthfully.

 

Of course, she did not reveal her status.

 

Being the next in line for the throne for the Grand Empire was too far removed for a small kingdom like this. She also did not want to use her status to gain their respect.

 

On the contrary, after learning that Qin Yichen’s Father, Qin Haoran, was sitting there, her attitude became even more modest.

 

“Ah, so this Young Lady is from the Grand Empire’s Capital.” Lu Heze was slightly surprised, vaguely guessing that the lady before him had an extraordinary status.

 

“Since Miss Xia is from the Capital, do you know if my Son is doing well?” Qin Haoran asked, worried about Qin Yichen’s situation.

 

As parents, their hearts were always tied to their children. If not for pride, it was worry.

 

“Uncle Qin need not worry, he is now a Guest Officer of Alchemy Central, a position of the highest order. Even the Emperor would respect him…” As she answered, Xia Zilin inwardly sighed.

 

It was a true miracle that someone could reach his current position at his age!

 

After arriving in Heavenly Unicorn City, she heard about some of Qin Yichen’s deeds without even having to ask. Therefore, she found his current achievements even more incredible.

 

“That’s good, that’s good…” Learning that Qin Yichen was well, Qin Haoran finally felt relieved, and more smiles appeared on his face.

 

“Guest Officer of Alchemy Central?!” Lu Heze, who had some understanding of the Grand Empire, was shocked.

 

That was the highest institution for Alchemy Masters in the Grand Empire!

 

For a teenager of under twenty to become a Guest Officer of Alchemy Central showed how high his achievements in Alchemy were.

 

After learning what Alchemy Central was, everyone let out another round of exclamations.

 

Originally, some news from the Central Province had already seemed incredible to them, but now, they were stunned to discover that while they were still trying to process it, Qin Yichen had already reached even greater heights.

 

“May I ask what brings Miss Xia here?” Despite his excitement, Lu Heze still asked about her purpose for coming.

 

“I… I just wanted to see where he lives.” Thinking of her purpose, Xia Zilin hesitated slightly, then made up a plausible excuse.

 

Since she was a guest, and had come from afar, Xia Zilin naturally stayed in the Royal Palace.

 

“That is Princess Linghan’s residence.” At Xia Zilin’s inquiry, the guard pointed the way.

 

“Lu Linghan…?” Her purpose in coming here was to see what kind of woman could captivate someone like Qin Yichen.

 

However, she had not realised why she cared so much about it at this point.

 

In the rear compound of the palace, she saw Lu Linghan.

 

She was a beautiful woman no less stunning than herself. Perhaps because of practicing the Profound Dark Eternal Body Technique, Lu Linghan’s entire body was suffused with an icy aura, truly like an ice queen.

 

“Oh?” Even though Xia Zilin was already at the Martial King Realm, she still felt a bone-chilling cold when approaching Lu Linghan, which surprised her.

 

She possessed the Heavenly Hu Jiao Martial Soul. Thus, ordinary Attributes should not be able to affect her, unless this Attribute was above the Heavenly Hu Jiao!

 

[This place is really strange…] Xia Zilin sighed inwardly.

 

Who could have expected that such a small kingdom would not only produce someone like Qin Yichen and a War God of the Grand Empire, but also concealed an opponent that even she had to take seriously.
