Chapter 391, Zhao Dian

Translator: Silavin

 

“Qin Yichen…” Upon seeing Qin Yichen’s movements, Zhao Yarou could not help but softly cry out, her eyes filled with anxiety.

 

*Humm…* With a thought from Qin Yichen, a transparent Yuan Energy burst forth from his palm.

 

“Hmm? No Attribute? And only at the Martial Grandmaster Realm?” Seeing this strand of Yuan Energy, Xiang Renhan frowned.

 

*Whoosh!* This Yuan Energy only appeared for an instant before Qin Yichen withdrew it back into his body.

 

However, in that brief moment, everyone had clearly seen that this strand of Yuan Energy was just ordinary Yuan Energy, without any Attribute, let alone the Lightning Attribute.

 

It seemed the Xiang Family guards had definitely mistaken him for someone else.

 

Indeed, how could a mere eighteen-year-old youth possibly be the one who killed three Martial Kings, scared away the others, and rescued Zhao Yarou?

 

“This…” Seeing Qin Yichen’s Yuan Energy, Zhao Yarou, who had been on edge, was also stunned.

 

Earlier, she had clearly sensed that Qin Yichen’s Yuan Energy was of the Lightning Attribute.

 

Why was his Yuan Energy Attributeless now? Even with her extensive experience, she had never heard of anyone who could transform their Yuan Energy Attribute!

 

“See, I knew it wasn’t him!” At this moment, the Zhao Family Sixth Elder glanced at Qin Yichen, his tone filled with disdain.

 

As for Zhao Wengting, he did not stop the Sixth Elder from mocking the youth. He was also filled with confusion – if it was not Qin Yichen who saved Zhao Yarou, then who had rescued her? Moreover, he did not believe Zhao Yarou would lie to him.

 

“You useless fool, are you blind?” Xiang Renhan took several deep breaths and kicked the guard. He had made such a grand display, yet the target was just an ordinary Martial Grandmaster!

 

The guard, who had been kicked to the ground, did not dare make a sound, only getting up sheepishly to stand aside. However, his gaze toward Qin Yichen was filled with confusion.

 

Had he really been mistaken?

 

Then, Xiang Renhan stopped paying attention to Qin Yichen and turned his gaze toward Zhao Wengting.

 

He had not forgotten his purpose for coming here.

 

Eliminate Zhao Yarou!

 

Once Zhao Yarou was eliminated, the Zhao Family would no longer be a threat. Once Zhao Yarou died during an Alchemy Duel, the Zhao Family did not have anyone to send to the Ten Corner Alchemy Manor.

 

When he saw Xiang Renhan turn his gaze toward him, Zhao Wengting suddenly felt a trace of unease in his heart.

 

“Today, our Xiang Family challenges the Zhao Family to an Alchemy Duel. Does the Zhao Family dare to accept!?”

 

Sure enough, Xiang Renhan’s next words immediately caused Zhao Wengting and all the Zhao Family members’ faces to darken.

 

It was a difficult choice.

 

To accept – but the Xiang Family must have made preparations.

 

To decline – but the Zhao Family, as an Alchemy Family, would no longer be able to maintain their standing.

 

“Patriarch!” The group of Zhao Family Elders behind Zhao Wengting were all filled with indignation. If Zhao Wengting had not held them back, they would have caused chaos already.

 

As members of the Zhao Family, when have they ever endured such humiliation!

 

“Go call Zhao Dian here!” Zhao Wengting took a deep breath and slowly said.

 

Moments later, a middle-aged man came running over urgently. This person was Zhao Dian, a Peak Spirit Realm Alchemy Master second only to Zhao Yarou!

 

“Uncle Zhao Dian, teach them a lesson for their arrogance!”

 

“Yes, Uncle Zhao Dian, give them a good thrashing!”

 

Seeing Zhao Dian appear, some of the younger generation behind the Zhao Family let out excited shouts.

 

“Which bastard wants to do an Alchemy Duel with me? Hurry up and come meet your death!” Zhao Dian angrily shouted at Xiang Renhan, his face full of arrogance.

 

However, he did have the ability to back it up. Besides their Family’s Alchemy Prodigy Zhao Yarou, he really did not have any opponents in terms  of Alchemy within Positively Tranquil City.

 

“Why did Zhao Dian come out?” At this time, behind Xiang Renhan, several Elders frowned – their target was supposed to be Zhao Yarou.

 

*Thud!* A meter-tall Pill Furnace was carried to Zhao Dian’s front by several Zhao Family guards. When it landed, it made a muffled sound that caused the ground to violently shake.

 

This Pill Furnace was the Zhao Family’s ancestral treasure as an Alchemy Family, a Low Earth Grade Pill Furnace… the Azure Scale Furnace!

 

Countless Alchemy Masters who had challenged the Zhao Family could only sigh in admiration at this furnace during Alchemy Duels, because it not only increased the success rate of Pill refinement but even had the ability to protect its Master during Alchemy Duels!

 

“Xiang Renhan, hurry and send your Family’s Alchemy Master to meet their death!” Zhao Dian slapped the Pill Furnace and roared.

 

Such arrogant words made the Zhao Family’s younger generation’s blood boil with excitement. This was the pride of being an Alchemy Family!

 

“Meet their death? Zhao Dian, aren’t your words a bit too arrogant?” Just as the crowd was in an uproar, suddenly a voice came from the Xiang Family’s carriage. This voice was not particularly loud, but amid the clamour, it clearly reached everyone’s ears!

 

Clearly, this person’s mastery over Spiritual Energy had reached a terrifying level!

 

“Oh?” Qin Yichen, who was not far away, also let out a surprised sound. It was clearly somewhat unexpected that there would be someone with such refined Spiritual Energy in a place like Positively Tranquil City.

 

Hearing this voice, the original clamour immediately died down, and Zhao Dian’s laughter also came to an abrupt halt.

 

Under everyone’s gaze, a somewhat elderly figure walked out from the Xiang Family’s carriage. When they saw this figure, a wave of sharp inhales sounded.

 

[Wait. This man is stronger than Chairman Hai, and should have also reached the Spiritual Flow Realm!] Qin Yichen frowned, his expression becoming somewhat grave.

 

“Master Qingquan?!” Zhao Dian’s pupils constricted, his eyes revealing fear. [The Xiang Family had actually invited this figure for the Alchemy Duel!?]

 

“This is bad!” Zhao Wengting also sighed, his face turning somewhat pale.

 

Master Qingquan was a genuine Mid Human Grade Alchemy Master! It was said that he came to Positively Tranquil City to help the Zhao Family only at the request of that Deacon from Northern Depths Sect.

 

However, Zhao Wengting never imagined he would represent the Xiang Family in an Alchemy Duel against his Family!

 

This was simply bullying!

 

*Thud!* At this time, Xiang Family guards also carried over a Pill Furnace. Although it could not compare to the Azure Scale Furnace, it was definitely still a rare furnace.

 

“It’s been a long time since anyone dared to challenge me…” Master Qingquan said calmly to Zhao Dian. From his deep eyes, others could vaguely detect anger hidden in their depths.

 

Zhao Dian now felt helpless. Although he was confident, he definitely was not conceited enough to duel with a Mid Stage Human Grade Alchemy Master.

 

What difference would that be from seeking death?
