Martial Master

This slap was far more ruthless than the last one.

Yi Chen fell heavily to the ground and coughed up a mouthful of blood, unable to get up for a long time.

Is this what you call your noble identity, filled with arrogance? You keep calling me garbage, yet can't even withstand a single palm strike from me. If I am garbage, then what are you?

Qin Chen spoke lightly, his words sharper than the previous slap, striking deep into Yi Chen's heart and filling him with humiliation and anger.

Moreover, it wasn't just Yi Chen; those young men who had come with him looked as if they had been slapped as well, their faces extremely ugly.

Chen Shao, you are too reckless.

Seeing Yi Chen sprawled on the ground in such a sorry state, Xiao Ya shook her head bitterly.

Qin Chen came here seeking the Alchemy Pavilion's help, and now, with him causing such a commotion, how could the pavilion assist him?

Forget it, Qin Chen. I think it's best if you don't meet my master. With you causing such a ruckus in the Alchemy Pavilion, Yi Chen's master will surely not let you off. We should leave quickly, Xiao Ya said anxiously.

Want to leave? It’s not that easy. Someone, capture this brat! Is he above the rules, making a scene in my Alchemy Pavilion?

A loud roar echoed, and Yi Chen and the others glared angrily at Qin Chen, shouting loudly. However, they didn’t approach; they merely stared at Qin Chen with resentment.

The commotion in the hall had already spread outside. A series of footsteps approached, and soon a middle-aged man, accompanied by a group of guards, rushed into the hall.

At the same time, a cultured elder dressed in management robes hurried down from the upper level of the hall.

Among the guards, the middle-aged man leading them wore armor, exuding a terrifying aura as if he were a thunderstorm, clearly a sixth-level Martial Venerable.

The elegantly dressed elder, although not emitting a fierce aura, stood alongside the leader without losing any of his imposing presence, also a sixth-level Martial Venerable.

Upon seeing the scene in the hall, both men were taken aback. The leader of the guards rushed forward to help Yi Chen up, angrily asking: What happened here?

Yi Chen is the second disciple of the Gold Source Elder of the Alchemy Pavilion and one of the top geniuses in the royal city's Alchemy Pavilion, with a noble status.

Now, someone dared to attack their alchemists within the pavilion! How could the guard, whose duty was to protect the pavilion, not be furious?

He had been absent from the hall, resulting in Yi Chen getting injured. This was a dereliction of duty on his part.

The cultured elder's face also showed signs of anger and surprise.

Manager Gu Xun, it was that brat who attacked! Yi Chen's subordinates pointed at Qin Chen, their faces twisted in rage.

Following their fingers, both men looked at Qin Chen, shocked.

Young, too young.

They had expected that the person who attacked Yi Chen would be some reckless martial artist from the royal city, but they never anticipated it would be such a young boy.

After seeing Xiao Ya beside Qin Chen, their expressions froze again, instantly realizing that the situation was definitely not as simple as it seemed.

Xiao Ya, what is going on? Manager Gu Xun frowned.

He was one of the managers of the Alchemy Pavilion, responsible for overseeing daily transactions and order. Although his rank was not as high as that of the elders, his status was not much lower.

After all, many elders in the pavilion were high-level alchemists, focused on alchemy and rarely managing daily affairs.

Manager Gu Xun, why are you wasting time? This person attacked me in the pavilion, clearly disregarding our Alchemy Pavilion. Arrest him first and we can discuss it later, Yi Chen gritted his teeth and said.

Manager Gu Xun, it’s not like that! You need to hear me out, Xiao Ya's face changed as she hurriedly spoke.

If Manager Gu Xun planned to take action against Qin Chen, it would be troublesome. With Qin Chen’s temperament, he would never willingly be captured, and a conflict would surely arise. Even her master wouldn’t be able to solve it then.
