Alchemy Master

Chapter 93, Who Do You Think You Are

The voice was not loud, but it came abruptly and was extremely provocative. It caused everyone in the Ye Family Mansion to look over.

Hearing this voice, Li Yuanba and Lin Huarong, standing at the door of the meeting hall, trembled. They looked towards the sound and saw a familiar figure.

At the entrance of the Ye Family Mansion was an old man and a young man walking in.

Both were dressed very ordinarily. The old man looked drowsy, as if he might fall asleep standing. The young man was only in his teens, but his face was frighteningly cold, his dark eyes filled with raging anger.

The newcomers were, of course, Qin Yichen and Zhou Xiaocang.

“Kid, are you tired of living!?”

A Martial Master mercenary was stunned for a moment before a fierce smile appeared on his face. He swung his sword towards Qin Yichen’s neck.

*Crack!* Qin Yichen’s palm was coated with a layer of white Yuan Energy. He grabbed the incoming blade, forcefully bending it. The sturdy long sword was directly broken into two. Before the Martial Master mercenary could react, he felt a chill in his chest, and then he fell into complete darkness.

Looking at the mercenary who had been pierced to death by his own blade, everyone finally took a proper look at this young man.

“In just over ten days… he’s improved so quickly!?”

Seeing how Qin Yichen effortlessly dealt with a Martial Master, Lin Huarong’s eyes greatly expanded, his heart shocked. [He really can’t be judged by normal standards!]

“Quickly leave this place!” Thinking of the current situation, Lin Huarong could not help but shout, his face full of urgency. [If Qin Yichen dies here, we would truly have no chance of making a comeback!]

“Surround them!” Lang Xing shouted harshly, and immediately a group of mercenaries surrounded the old man and the young man.

Despite being surrounded, Qin Yichen remained calm and composed. In fact, he did not even seem intent on escaping. This caused Xue Meigui to narrow her eyes and focus on the old man beside him.

After observing for a long time, she still could not discover anything.

This old man seemed to be just an ordinary person. Xue Meigui could not sense even the slightest fluctuation of Yuan Energy from him.

However, this made Xue Meigui’s expression even more solemn. [Why would an ordinary old man appear here!? If… no… there is another possibility… this old man’s cultivation is above my own!]

This set off alarm bells in Xue Meigui’s mind.

Sure enough…

“Get lost!” With these simple words, the group of mercenaries surrounding Qin Yichen and Zhou Xiaocang were all sent flying. Unable to control their descent, they all landed miserably.

Even the Martial Grandmaster among them was no exception.

“How is this possible!?” Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock, their faces looking as if they had seen a ghost, unable to react for a long time.

“Old sir, we are here on behalf of the Du Family from the Royal City. We hope you can give us some face.” Xue Meigui stepped forward and bowed to Zhou Xiaocang, who was squinting his eyes.

In her view, this old man before her might be a third level Peak Stage Martial Grandmaster, someone she could not hope to contend with. Nevertheless, even if he was a third level Peak Stage Martial Grandmaster, how could he possibly dare to offend the Du Family!?

This was also why she brought up the Du Family, hoping to intimidate this powerful figure before her.

However…

Zhou Xiaocang completely ignored her, as if he had not heard anything, still maintaining his drowsy appearance.

This caused Xue Meigui’s face to change.

“Old fool, don’t act ignorant. Offend the Du Family and they’ll exterminate your entire Family!” Yan Hu, already full of rage, directly cursed, pointing his long sword at Zhou Xiaocang.

*Hmph!* Zhou Xiaocang suddenly let out a cold snort, a tangible aura sweeping out, directly sending Yan Hu flying. He crashed into the surrounding wall, and after falling down, he repeatedly coughed up blood. When he looked at Zhou Xiaocang again, his eyes were filled with fear.

“Even Du Batian would not dare to speak to me like this. Who do you think you are?” A calm yet cold voice came from Zhou Xiaocang’s mouth, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble.

Du Batian was the Head of the Du Family, and also a third level Peak Stage Martial Grandmaster. Yet, this old man dared to directly call his name, showing that he did not fear the Du Family.

Xue Meigui’s heart sank, knowing that they had hit a steel plate this time.

While they were shocked by Zhou Xiaocang’s strength, Qin Yichen walked towards the hall. Along the way, no one dared to stop him.

This was no joke. Since Yan Hu was already forced to the ground, who would dare to be the first to stick their neck out?

“Are you alright?” Arriving at the entrance of the hall, seeing Lin Huarong and Li Yuanba covered in blood, Qin Yichen frowned.

“It’s nothing…” Lin Huarong shook his head, but as he relaxed, he staggered, his face turning even paler.

Li Yuanba, on the other hand, gave him a big grin. He shouldered his pair of giant hammers, his form not moving an inch.

“Open your mouths.” Qin Yichen took out a small jade bottle, painfully dispensing two drops of Thousand Year Old Spirit Milk, sending one drop to each of their mouths.

As soon as the Thousand Year Old Spirit Milk entered their mouths, it turned into a clear spring which spread throughout their bodies. Li Yuanba and Lin Huarong did not hesitate and immediately sat cross-legged at the doorway. They were completely immersed in fully absorbing the medicinal properties of the Thousand Year Old Spirit Milk.

“Hehe, you brat, you finally came back.” Ye Liangchen walked out from inside, his expression showing that the weight in his worried heart had been put down.

“I came back too late, causing you all trouble…” Looking at the bloodstains all over the courtyard, Qin Yichen’s expression became heavy.

“It’s good that you’re back.”

Li Yuanfei and Ye Hongyun also walked out from inside, but their gaze stayed on Zhou Xiaocang, who was beside Qin Yichen.

They opened their mouths, wanting to ask, but dared not to.

Because this drowsy old man before them obviously did not take them seriously at all.

The scene in the courtyard just now, they had clearly seen from inside the hall. This old man before them was definitely someone they could not afford to offend.

…

In the distance…

An old man and a young man in his twenties stood on a tall building, looking towards the situation in the Ye Family Mansion.

Upon seeing Zhou Xiaocang appear, the old man’s face first showed surprise, then turned to terror.

“Uncle Pin, what’s wrong?” Seeing his reaction, the young man asked.

“That man…” The old man pointed towards Zhou Xiaocang, his lips trembling, “is the Heavenly Blade!”

When the words ‘Heavenly Blade’ came out of his mouth, the young man’s face had also dramatically changed.

“Impossible! Hasn’t that old man been in seclusion for nearly a hundred years? How could he possibly appear in a place like this?” The young man could not believe it.

However, seeing Zhou Xiaocang severely injure Yan Hu with just his aura, the young man fell silent.

“Qingli, let’s go.” Seeing the young man’s dark expression, the old man sighed and advised.

“Uncle Pin, are we just going to let my Little Brother’s revenge go like this?” Du Qingli’s face looked refined but at the same time enraged as he clenched his fists.

“Of course not!” A flash of sharpness passed through the old man’s eyes, “Your Older Brother is coming back soon…”

“Big Brother Junxiong? Why is he coming back? Could it be… he’s coming back to marry Princess Linghan?” Du Qingli seemed to think of something and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

“That’s right.” The old man nodded, “Marrying the Princess is one thing. Secondly, your Older Brother has gained another opportunity, and has become favoured by an Elder of a major Sect. He has been taken in as a personal disciple. With his new background, why would we need to fear that old dog Xiaocang! So, once your Older Brother returns, we can uproot the Zhou Family if need be!”
