Martial Master

Qin Chen came to the Alchemy Pavilion this time, naturally not without thinking, charging straight in. He was well aware that there were insiders from Piao Miao Palace within the Alchemy Pavilion, so he first arrived at the Ouyang family.

From the information he had gathered, he knew that Zi Xun and the others were currently under the protection of the Ouyang family. Therefore, the first stop of Qin Chen’s visit was Ouyang Hongguang, the ancestor of the Ouyang family, who was now the deputy master of the Alchemy Pavilion.

“You are Qin Chen?”

Ouyang Hongguang was taken aback upon hearing this, his gaze turning serious as he looked at Qin Chen.

Qin Chen's name was certainly well-known, and the news of the Bloodline Holy Land had already spread to the Alchemy Pavilion, creating quite a stir and chaos.

In fact, not long ago, Ouyang Hongguang had attended a meeting at the Pill Tower, where the discussions revolved around how to view Fu Qiankun's return and the matter of the Bloodline Holy Land being previously manipulated by Piao Miao Palace. This was crucial for the Alchemy Pavilion’s future decisions on whether to join the Bloodline Holy Land Alliance.

Unfortunately, the opinions within the Alchemy Pavilion were varied, and everyone had their own perspective. After a noisy debate, and with the Pavilion Master not emerging from seclusion, the discussion ultimately ended without any resolution.

At this moment, with one of the parties involved in the Bloodline Holy Land, Qin Chen, appearing in the Ouyang family, how could Ouyang Hongguang not be shaken?

Especially as Qin Chen quietly entered his personal refining room, the restrictions within the refining room showed no fluctuations at all. Ouyang Hongguang himself did not sense Qin Chen's presence, which left him astonished due to Qin Chen's profound cultivation.

He focused his gaze on the young man before him, who had a smile on his face and a gentle demeanor, yet exuded an inexplicable aura of Dao with every movement, as if he had merged with the heavens and the earth, becoming one with them.

“What a terrifying spatial realm.”

Ouyang Hongguang inhaled sharply. It was no wonder the person could enter his refining room silently; this individual's mastery of spatial techniques was immensely superior to his own, simply incomparable.

Moreover, under Qin Chen's pressure, he felt light and breezy, as if the terrifying might of the Martial God level was nothing more than a gentle breeze brushing against him, which also left Ouyang Hongguang alarmed.

It should be noted that although his cultivation was only at the late stage of the Ninth Level, as the deputy master of the Alchemy Pavilion, he possessed Golden Blazing Flames. In terms of combat power, he was by no means inferior to a typical peak-level Martial God. Yet at this moment, under Qin Chen's overwhelming presence, he felt completely unfazed, clearly demonstrating the depth of Qin Chen’s cultivation.

The rumors circulating in the Martial Domain were indeed not unfounded.

Seeing Ouyang Hongguang staring at him in silence for a long time, Qin Chen couldn’t help but laugh, “Is this the way Master Ouyang receives guests?”

He chuckled lightly, with an air of nonchalance, which instantly dissipated Ouyang Hongguang's imposing aura, like smoke vanishing without a trace, effortlessly.

“Ah!”

Ouyang Hongguang finally realized he had been disrespectful. However, upon hearing Qin Chen's words, he felt speechless. His way of receiving guests wasn’t great, but neither was Qin Chen’s; barging into his refining room without the host's permission was quite something.

Of course, Ouyang Hongguang only thought this in his heart. After the shock, he quickly returned to normal, smiling as he cupped his hands in salute, “So it’s Qin...”

He immediately stumbled over his words, as Qin Chen’s identity was too complex for him to decide how to address him. Should he call him President Qin?

Or perhaps Young Master Chen?

Or Brother Qin?

Being the dignified deputy master of the Alchemy Pavilion, Ouyang Hongguang quickly collected himself and smiled, “So it is City Lord Qin. It is said that City Lord Qin possesses astonishing abilities and celestial cultivation. Meeting you today, it is indeed well-deserved.”
