Alchemy Master

Chapter 630, The Game Between Young and Old

Translator: Silavin

Qin Yichen did not meet Feng Wentian in the inner hall of the Feng Family.

He was led to a small valley.

The valley had a lake and a pavilion.

Feng Wentian sat within the pavilion, seemingly fishing.

Several Feng Family guards escorted the two men to this place, then quietly departed.

Feng Lingzun brought Qin Yichen to the pavilion.

“Lingzun, you’ve had a tiring journey. Go and rest first.” Feng Wentian did not turn around, his gaze still fixed upon the lake’s surface.

Feng Lingzun was startled, seeming to want to say something, but Qin Yichen beside him prevented this and smiled at him.

Though Feng Lingzun was somewhat worried, he departed helplessly, nonetheless.

Within the pavilion, only Qin Yichen and Feng Wentian remained.

Time passed bit by bit. Feng Wentian seemed to have forgotten Qin Yichen’s existence, never speaking nor turning around, concentrating entirely on fishing.

Qin Yichen was neither impatient nor anxious, sitting within the pavilion and drinking alone.

[This tea is decent.] Qin Yichen wore an expression of enjoyment.

Both men focused on their own affairs, neither breaking the tranquillity of this place.

Until Feng Wentian’s fishing rod suddenly sank heavily. He pulled upward, and a palm-sized red-tailed fish was hauled up.

At this moment, a young servant appeared from somewhere, took the fish, placed it in a bucket, and departed with delight.

Only then did Feng Wentian turn around.

Qin Yichen smiled in response.

This was not his first time seeing Feng Wentian, so naturally he would not be intimidated.

“You are Qin Yichen?” Feng Wentian casually wiped his hands and set the fishing rod aside.

“Qin Yichen greets Senior.” Qin Yichen stood up and bowed to him.

This fellow might become his future Father-in-law, so courtesy was appropriate.

“Hehe.” Feng Wentian smiled faintly, seated himself, and sipped his tea lightly, making it impossible to discern his emotions.

Qin Yichen also sat down, holding the miniature wooden bird that Gongshu Zhiyi had given him, playing with it absent-mindedly.

In an unguarded moment, Feng Wentian’s gaze swept across that wooden bird. Almost instinctively, his gaze fixed upon the wooden bird for a full three seconds.

This scene was observed by Qin Yichen, but his expression remained unchanged.

“Which Clan do you come from?” Feng Wentian seemed to have discerned something, his expression becoming somewhat grave.

“Hehe.” Qin Yichen also imitated him, smiling slightly, neither denying nor confirming.

This was precisely why he had visited the Gongshu Clan before coming to the Imperial Dynasty.

Lu Ban’s Descendants!

Lu Ban was a Peerless Master of a whole generation!

Peerless Master meant one who sat at the pinnacle. One how established Sects or created their own school—a different method of cultivation. Only such a person could be called a Peerless Master!

Although the Lu Clan lived in seclusion and did not involve themselves in worldly affairs, the Lu Ban Sect and Lu Ban’s Descendants were existences that no Force dared to underestimate.

Even the Feng Family!

Moreover, according to Qin Yichen’s knowledge, the Feng Family had found a branch of the Lu Ban’s Descendants. who had constructed various things for the Feng Family.

A strange gleam flashed in Feng Wentian’s eyes.

This was a situation he had not anticipated.

In these Six Imperial Dynasties, though Hidden Families were numerous, the foundation and strength of his Feng Family were absolutely second to none.

Yet, he dared not underestimate Lu Ban’s Descendants

He had dealt with one branch. He had witnessed the supernatural Craftsmanship of the Lu Ban’s Descendants, which transform the inanimate to the living.

Combined with the prestige of the Peerless Master Lu Ban’s name, he dared not underestimate his descendants.

If the young man before him was one of them, then many things could be explained.

Excellent Spiritual Energy talent.

Divine level mastery of Spiritual Energy.

Endless supply of Pill Formulas.

He was well aware that Lu Ban’s Descendants primarily cultivated Spiritual Energy.

Now, he could no longer treat this young man before him with a condescending attitude.

Because even tracing back to their origins, Lu Ban’s Descendants were not inferior to their Feng Family in the slightest!

Now, Feng Wentian suddenly had a headache.

Originally, he thought he could dismiss Qin Yichen casually and perhaps employ some methods to make Qin Yichen retreat in the face of difficulties.

But how was this impossible now?

Casually dismiss him? What a joke!

He had dealt with just a mere branch of Lu Ban’s Descendants, and only after promising numerous benefits and sending many precious materials did they reluctantly take action.

Therefore, in Feng Wentian’s mind, Lu Ban’s Descendants were unfathomable.

One powerful expert of theirs was equivalent to an army!!!

As described in ancient records about the Peerless Master Lu Ban, he alone had repelled the invading Foreign Races. What tremendous power he must have held!

And now, his Feng Family had already received benefits from them, making them inherently at a disadvantage. Treating this matter perfunctorily was no longer possible.

As for making Qin Yichen retreat in the face of difficulties…

Feng Wentian could only smile bitterly.

So, now he has a headache.

What he originally thought was an easily resolved matter had now become truly complicated.

“Senior, this Junior has no other thoughts. Right now, I only wishing to see Miss Qianxue.”

At the mention of Feng Qianxue, Qin Yichen was obviously somewhat anxious.

Regarding what he said, Feng Wentian rolled his eyes dramatically.

[As if I would believe you have no other thoughts!]

But, with Ouyang Haotian also present, he was in a difficult position.

“It is currently inconvenient for Qianxue to see outsiders…”

Feng Wentian spoke the truth.

Feng Qianxue’s Martial Soul awakening was imminent. How could she be disturbed by outsiders?

Here, Ouyang Haotian must be mentioned.

Ouyang Haotian was absolutely meticulous in his care for Feng Qianxue, and in all matters, he was wholehearted.

Without Ouyang Haotian’s help, Feng Qianxue could not possibly have awakened her Martial Soul in such a short time.

“Is Miss Qianxue’s Martial Soul awakening imminent?” Qin Yichen suddenly asked, his expression becoming even more anxious.

Feng Qianxue’s Martial Soul was about to awaken, and Ouyang Haotian was by her side!!!

“Hmm?” Feng Wentian’s brow obviously furrowed, seeming somewhat displeased.

Feng Qianxue’s Martial Soul matter was a Feng Family secret, known by very few people. Ouyang Haotian was definitely an exception.

So how had Qin Yichen learned of this?

“Senior Feng does not know, but actually, the Pill Formula for that Heaven Fire Gathering Pill last time was given by me to Ouyang.”

Qin Yichen suppressed his agitated emotions and directly stated, “I have another item in my possession, called the Nirvana Transformation Pill, which I believe would be of great benefit to her Martial Soul awakening.”

As he spoke, he directly took out a Pill Formula from his ring in front of Feng Wentian and handed it over.

[A Space Ring!?] Though this was merely a small action, Feng Wentian’s eyes obviously narrowed.

One must know that even his Feng Family only possessed one Space Ring, which even he was not qualified to wear, but was kept by that Old Ancestor.

Yet, this young man who was only in his teens actually wore a treasure that even he did not possess!

Next, he received that Pill Formula, and with just one glance, his pupils dilated sharply.

The Nirvana Transformation Pill , this was simply a Divine Pill tailor-made for his Feng Family!

Of course, he did not know that this was indeed tailor-made by Qin Yichen for his Feng Family.
