Martial Master

“Chen Shao, you were a bit reckless for beating up Qinghong Dan Shi's Dan Tong like that, weren't you?” On the way, Zhuo Qingfeng couldn't help but say.

He Dan Tong was a bit arrogant, but being beaten like this is definitely not a good thing for Qin Chen, who wants to develop in Dan Dao City.

“Hehe, don’t worry, this Young Master has his own ideas!” Qin Chen smiled faintly, yet he was unconcerned.

He dared to act this way because he had his own considerations, and it wasn't completely driven by impulse.

First of all, it was a bit strange for Qinghong Dan Shi to invite him at this time; it could only be one of two possibilities.

The first possibility is that he thinks highly of him, which is why he sent someone to invite him over, wanting to establish a good relationship. In this case, as long as this master is a reasonable person, he wouldn't listen to He Dan Tong's one-sided words.

After all, it was indeed He Dan Tong who acted arrogantly first, and he only retaliated afterwards.

The second possibility is that even if Qinghong Dan Shi was deceived, it wouldn't be a loss for him, because Qinghong Dan Shi was just a vice pavilion master, and he already had a Holy Daughter under him. It was impossible for him to remove his Holy Daughter and let Qin Chen take the position of Holy Son.

However, Qin Chen's goal was to become the Holy Son of Dan Dao City. Although Qinghong Dan Shi was a vice pavilion master, he couldn't help him at all. If he didn't have enough bearing and was incited by He Dan Tong, offending him wouldn't matter, it was nothing serious.

What Qin Chen cared about the most was the opinion of the pavilion master of the Alchemy Pavilion; only he could decide his fate.

But in the eyes of the pavilion master, one side has a terrifyingly young genius alchemist, while the other side is just a Dan Tong. Who do you think the pavilion master would favor? Moreover, he was on the reasonable side.

Of course, there is a second possibility for Qinghong Dan Shi inviting him, which is that he disapproves of his actions in the Alchemy Pavilion and wants to call him over to teach him a lesson or suppress him.

In that case, it goes without saying that beating He Dan Tong was even better. If others were preparing to teach you a lesson, would you really just kneel and thank them without resisting?

So, Qin Chen didn't dwell on the earlier incident at all.

The group first went to the Alchemy Pavilion to meet Zhuo Qingfeng's senior brother, Jiao Jialiang, and then under Jiao Jialiang's lead, they arrived at the residence of Xuan Yi Yao Wang.

Xuan Yi Yao Wang's residence is located near the Alchemy Pavilion, in the most luxurious area of Dan Dao City. However, despite the good geographical location, the decorations were very simple, lacking any gold and brilliance, instead giving off a sense of returning to simplicity.

Upon learning of Zhuo Qingfeng's arrival, Xuan Yi Yao Wang quickly met with Qin Chen and the others.

The servant led them into the residence, where an elderly man with a somewhat haggard appearance was already waiting in the reception room.

This man had graying hair and looked tired, giving off a feeling of having reached the end of his journey.

“Master.”

Seeing the old man, Zhuo Qingfeng directly knelt down, tears streaming down his face. Compared to fifty years ago, Master had aged too much.

He still remembered that his master was once the most promising vice pavilion master of Dan Dao City, even having the hope of inheriting the position of pavilion master. But fifty years later, Xuan Yi Yao Wang had become a lonely old man, which made one sigh.

“Qingfeng, you’ve finally returned.”

Xuan Yi Yao Wang saw Zhuo Qingfeng and was also in tears, his body trembling: “I heard from your senior brother Jiao about your news, and I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t expect you to actually come back.”

The old man gently stroked Zhuo Qingfeng, showing that he still cared for him deeply.

The two first chatted about their respective matters, and then Xuan Yi Yao Wang excitedly said to Zhuo Qingfeng: “I heard you broke through to the Yao Wang realm. Good! My disciple Xuan Yi is indeed not mediocre; I didn’t expect you to break through to Yao Wang in such an environment. I truly did not foresee this, good!”
