Martial Master

“I have met Lord Cai and Manager Zu.”

Qin Chen met with Cai Gaofeng and Zu Anming in the reception room of the Ancient Medicine Hall. Upon seeing the two, Qin Chen merely nodded slightly without any sign of restraint, exuding a calm aura, as if a godly king had descended, invincible in the world.

Having witnessed the might of a Holy Master in the Forbidden Land, he naturally did not fear the Earth Saint aura of Cai Gaofeng and Zu Anming, and Qin Chen's demeanor caused Cai Gaofeng's gaze to flicker, feeling even more astonished.

This young man is extraordinary! It was the first time he had directly encountered Qin Chen. As the steward of the city lord’s mansion, he had seen countless young talents in the past, yet no matter how remarkable they were, they all treated him with utmost respect. None had ever been as nonchalant as Qin Chen.

“This must be the Young Hero Qin Chen.”

Cai Gaofeng was extremely enthusiastic: “Young Hero Qin Chen should already be aware of my background. A few days ago, in Cang Xuan City, the young lady of our city lord's mansion was attacked by assassins. Thanks to Young Hero Qin Chen saving her, I was spared from punishment. Today, I finally found Young Hero Qin Chen, indeed a heroic youth with extraordinary bearing.”

“Yesterday, Manager Zu Anming from the West City found me, and I learned that the young hero was at the Ancient Medicine Hall. The city lord was very excited to know that Young Hero Qin Chen is still in Cang Xuan City, and insisted that I come and invite you to the city lord's mansion to express his gratitude in person.”

Cai Gaofeng was very tactful, despite his high position, he did not put on airs before Qin Chen and seemed very amiable.

Zu Anming's brows twitched wildly. This was the first time he had seen Cai Gaofeng in such a posture. Although he appeared to be humble in front of Qin Chen, in front of other forces in Cang Xuan City, he was a dominant presence, looking down upon others.

After all, anyone who could serve as the chief steward of the city lord's mansion was no simple character.

“Lord Cai is overpraising me. I am merely a wandering cultivator, and the act of saving someone was just coincidental, nothing worth mentioning.”

Qin Chen naturally did not believe that Cai Gaofeng had only learned about this matter yesterday. Given the strength of the city lord’s mansion, they would probably have known about his presence in the Ancient Medicine Hall that same day. They were merely looking to investigate him quietly or had no intention of contacting him.

It was likely that the news of him slaying Feng Buqun yesterday had alarmed the city lord’s mansion, prompting this invitation to meet.

“Ah, perhaps this matter is trivial for you, young hero, but for our city lord's mansion, it is a tremendous favor. I hope you will not decline. The city lord is already waiting at the mansion.”

Cai Gaofeng continued to invite.

Upon hearing this, Qin Chen had no choice but to comply.

The group immediately left the Ancient Medicine Hall and headed towards the city lord’s mansion.

As they departed, Qin Chen did not hide at all, and naturally, many nearby people noticed.

This immediately shocked many observers, causing their hearts to tremble.

The entanglement between the Ancient Medicine Hall and the Ancient Fang Pavilion had already drawn the attention of countless people, especially after the master of the Ancient Fang Pavilion, relying on his cultivation, attempted to forcibly seize the Ancient Medicine Hall with six Earth Saints, only to be set up and slain by a young expert from the Ancient Medicine Hall.

This news had already blown everyone's mind, particularly the fact that the only survivor of the Ancient Fang Pavilion, Vice Master Ji Fanye, planned to align with the Dusty Pavilion, which further captivated everyone's attention and gathered countless gazes on the Ancient Medicine Hall.

Although the Ancient Medicine Hall was merely a small force in Cang Xuan City, it had a slight reputation in the West City area and was not significant at all; even if it were destroyed, it would be inconsequential.
