Alchemy Master

Chapter 1007, Adorable Little Girl

Translator: Silavin

“En, it sure is getting late. Sacred Master Candidate Nie, please return. This Qin won’t see you out.” However, once again, contrary to Nie Chengrui’s expectations, this ‘toad’ who had taken his twenty thousand drops of Spirit Liquid actually refused outright!

Nie Chengrui looked at Qin Yichen somewhat incredulously, as if curious about exactly who had given this fellow the courage to treat him this way!?

Having taken his Spirit Liquid without the slightest embarrassment, instead treating it as perfectly natural. Even his invitation for Feng Qianxue to dine together had been rejected by him?

Most crucially, regarding Qin Yichen’s shameless behaviour, Feng Qianxue’s expression showed not the slightest dissatisfaction or disgust. Rather, happiness overflowed across her exquisitely beautiful face, as if she only cared about this ‘toad’. Regardless of whether his behaviour was right or wrong, she did not care in the slightest.

The surrounding crowd at this moment also looked at each other in dismay, all feeling a sense of absurdity in their hearts.

Nie Chengrui, a Sacred Master Candidate of Startling Cloud Sacred Land.

Yet at this moment, someone had taken his Spirit Liquid and still given him no face whatsoever!

Only Ying Xinghui, seeing this scene, felt slightly better in his heart.

Because Qin Yichen had treated him exactly the same way!

He just could not understand what exactly gave this fellow such courage!?

“Sacred Master Candidate Qin is courting death.”

“After offending Ying Xinghui, he still dares to offend Nie Chengrui. It seems he’s truly tired of living.”

The onlookers all thought inwardly.

In the distance, hidden among the crowd, Xuan Mingge and Lin Fengying’s expressions also became exceptionally ugly.

Qin Yichen’s courage was truly too great. Fortunately, they had extricated themselves earlier, hoping they had not drawn this fire upon themselves.

With Qin Yichen consecutively offending two top-tier Sacred Lands, even if they wanted to help in future, they would have to carefully weigh the matter.

It was not that they did not want to help, but that their hearts were willing, yet their strength was insufficient!

Whether Ethereal Spirit Sacred Land or Startling Cloud Sacred Land, either one alone could already suppress them until they could only gasp for breath. Two of them… they simply dared not continue imagining.

“Sacred Master Candidate Qin, your behaviour is somewhat excessive, wouldn’t you say?” Nie Chengrui finally could not restrain himself, his voice somewhat gloomy as he spoke.

“Oh…” Hearing this, Qin Yichen also paused slightly, then smiled, saying, “Sacred Master Candidate Nie, you can just demand this Spirit Liquid from Sacred Master Candidate Ying. I’m just passing on the responsibility of collecting to you. Not like you are losing anything.”

These words, when spoken, seemed perfectly normal. Ying Xinghui had lost the wager to Qin Yichen and indeed still owed him twenty thousand drops of Spirit Liquid. However, Ying Xinghui had long made clear he would not yield on the wagered Spirit Liquid.

Moreover, even Nie Chengrui probably could not take this Spirit Liquid from the latter’s mouth. After all, though Ying Xinghui was wary of him, he had not reached the level of fear.

This time, Qin Yichen had clearly decided to take advantage of Nie Chengrui!

“Hehe, Sacred Master Candidate Qin, my Spirit Liquid isn’t so easily taken. Today, you can choose not to go, but Miss Feng must leave with me!” Nie Chengrui spoke in a heavy voice. Between his words, a terrifying aura faintly emanated from his entire body, showing clear signs of attacking if they could not reach an agreement.

Sensing this scene, everyone’s expressions showed emotion. Quite a few people even quietly retreated some distance, fearing Nie Chengrui truly would not be able to restrain himself and, upon attacking, would involve them.

“Sacred Master Candidate Nie, you’re overthinking. I said I’m not going, which means we’re not going.” However, facing Nie Chengrui’s forceful pressure, Qin Yichen’s expression showed not the slightest fear. He remained utterly calm.

“You!” Hearing this, fury surged skyward in Nie Chengrui’s heart. He glared viciously at Qin Yichen, those eyes seeming as if they wanted to transform into ten thousand sharp swords and tear Qin Yichen to shreds.

This utterly vile ‘toad’. Having swallowed his Spirit Liquid, he still would not let him invite Feng Qianxue!

As a Sacred Master Candidate of Startling Cloud Sacred Land, who did not show him respect upon meeting? When has Nie Chengrui ever suffered such a massive loss?

The enraged Nie Chengrui’s entire body radiated a golden-yellow lustre. He did not want to make a move here, but he could barely control himself.

Though he would not go so far as to employ his full might here, he still wanted to use his aura to teach Qin Yichen a lesson!

Merely employing aura to suppress, for Startling Cloud Sacred Land, though this would also cause considerable trouble, it should at least preserve his safety, no?

Under Nie Chengrui’s aura, the Spirit Crystal Area fell completely silent. Merely emanating traces of aura caused quite a few Martial Ancestor Sacred Master Candidates to feel it difficult to breathe. One could imagine how terrifying it would be if Nie Chengrui fully erupted?

He was truly worthy of being Startling Cloud Sacred Land’s Sacred Master Candidate!

[Make your move. Hehe, hurry up and attack!] On one side, Ying Xinghui’s eyes were full of cunning amusement. The frustration he had suffered earlier had left him depressed, but seeing Nie Chengrui suffer setbacks now brought considerable satisfaction to his heart.

His status was not that inferior to Nie Chengrui’s. This also allowed Ying Xinghui to understand more clearly what terrifying consequences would result from making a move here.

Those consequences were absolutely not something Nie Chengrui believed he could resolve!

The entire Spirit Crystal Area fell into complete silence. Suddenly, a childish voice suddenly rang out.

“Eh, Nie Chengrui? What’s this shameless fellow doing here?”

When they heard this sentence, everyone in the Spirit Crystal Area wore expressions of shock.

Nie Chengrui. What exalted status did he hold? Even if some Sacred Lands’ Sacred Masters met him, they would probably need to treat him courteously!

Yet today, people had consecutively provoked him!

Moreover, when Nie Chengrui was enraged, someone still dared speak mockingly!

This was simply courting death!

Furthermore, listening to that crisp voice that still carried traces of childishness, it clearly came from a child’s mouth!

Though one might say children speak without restraint, wasn’t this child’s courage too great?

Did the speaker not realise that such words could bring about the whole extermination of the Force behind them?

“Ah!” At this moment, Nie Chengrui’s eyes seemed to turn golden-yellow. His gaze shot viciously towards a certain direction. From there, a petite figure squeezed out from the crowd.

One could see this was a little girl only about one metre tall, who appeared no more than five or six years old!

However, this child was extremely delicate and spirited, just like a porcelain doll, making people’s hearts involuntarily fill with tender affection upon seeing her.

“Such an adorable doll!”

“Alas, what a pity!”

Upon seeing this little girl, everyone’s pupils contracted. They could not help but praise her inwardly, but immediately after, they began worrying for her.

After all, she had just mocked Startling Cloud Sacred Land’s Sacred Master Candidate!

Was this not asking for trouble?

Perhaps only such an innocent child would dare speak of Nie Chengrui this way.

However, contrary to everyone’s expectations, upon seeing this little girl, not only did Nie Chengrui not explode on the spot, but the moment he saw her, his originally oppressive aura actually receded like the tide at astonishing speed.

His expression also became somewhat terrified.

No, it was indeed terror he felt!
