Chapter 271: Passionate as Fire 🔥

Published: November 30, -0001

The Bloodline Holy Land is the most powerful force in the Da Qi Kingdom, and its president holds an extraordinary position.

Although he is also a first-grade Alchemist, and holds a respectable status in the Da Qi Kingdom, he is still far inferior compared to the president of the Bloodline Holy Land.

"Ugh..."

Caught off guard, the first-grade Alchemist didn't know how to respond, sweat breaking out on his forehead. He could only say, "Three gentlemen, please wait a moment. I have already sent someone to notify the Pavilion Lord. I believe he will arrive shortly."

"Mm." Nodding, he looked at the many guards from the Alchemy Pavilion opposite him, their hands gripping their weapons tightly in tension, and couldn't help but smile, "You all needn't be so nervous. I am here only to pay respects to Pavilion Lord Xiao Ya, with no ill intentions."

No ill intentions?

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere on the scene suddenly changed. Everyone exchanged glances, not knowing what exactly Dongfang Qing was plotting.

Could it be that the president of the Bloodline Holy Land was not here to condemn the Alchemy Pavilion? If that were the case, why would President Dongfang come in person?

However, would the dignified president of the Bloodline Holy Land come to deceive everyone?

The first-grade Alchemist was also taken aback.

He then forced a bitter smile.

If Dongfang Qing's purpose was to cause a ruckus in the Alchemy Pavilion, could these guards really stop him?

Just thinking about it seemed impossible. Dongfang Qing's strength was comparable to that of the Da Qi Kingdom's number one expert, Wu Wang Xiao Zhan; dealing with just a few of them would be as easy as chopping vegetables.

"Step back!"

Thinking of this, the first-grade Alchemist hesitated for a moment before immediately ordering the group of guards to withdraw.

"Where is President Dongfang?"

At this moment, a clear and melodious voice suddenly rang out as the crowd parted, revealing a stunning beauty walking forward from behind.

It was none other than Xiao Ya.

Following her were Qin Chen and Liu Guang.

Xiao Ya's expression was very serious, resembling an ice-cold beauty, as she quickly approached Dongfang Qing.

"Pavilion Lord."

The first-grade Alchemist and the managers of the Alchemy Pavilion hurriedly bowed in greeting.

Waving her hand to dismiss them, Xiao Ya finally fixed her gaze on Dongfang Qing, her heart slightly alert.

Although she and Dongfang Qing were not strangers and had interacted a few times, their relationship was not particularly deep.

This time, she had resolutely chosen to offend the Bloodline Holy Land for the sake of Qin Chen. It was impossible not to feel nervous.

With the president of the Bloodline Holy Land personally arriving, Xiao Ya's sense of vigilance and seriousness was unprecedented.

If this matter was not handled well, it would undoubtedly be a huge disaster for the Alchemy Pavilion.

"President Dongfang, long time no see. I hope all is well."

Gathering herself, Xiao Ya revealed a smile as she cupped her hands in greeting.

Given the current situation, she could only respond to whatever was thrown her way, though she was unsure how intense the opponent's offensive would be.

Just as she was guessing, Dongfang Qing smiled lightly and replied, "Pavilion Lord Xiao Ya, indeed long time no see."

Before Xiao Ya could respond, his gaze had already shifted to Qin Chen behind her, a smile appearing in his eyes as he unconsciously stepped forward.

"Whoa!"

Thinking that Dongfang Qing was about to take action, Xiao Ya tensed up, her internal energy gathering instantly, ready to strike.

"Hahaha, young friend Qin Chen, it’s been a long time!"

Just then, Dongfang Qing burst into hearty laughter and warmly grasped Qin Chen's hand.

"President Dongfang, long time no see."

Seeing Dongfang Qing's enthusiastic demeanor, Qin Chen chuckled as well, but his expression was quite awkward as he forcefully pulled his hand away from Dongfang Qing's grip, getting goosebumps all over.

"Big brother, you’re a grown man, being enthusiastic is one thing, but why are you gripping my hand so tightly?"
