Martial Master

"Young Master Chen, I heard that your home was attacked yesterday, are you alright?"

The moment the two people entered, they looked around worriedly. Seeing the mess in Qin Chen's room, they were both furious. "The Qin family is simply too much. You are clearly a member of the Qin family, and yet they want to exterminate you like this. It's simply intolerable!"

"Don't be nervous, I'm fine. But where did you hear this news?" Qin Chen asked, opening his sleepy eyes with a puzzled expression.

"Young Master Chen, don't you know? The entire capital knows about the attack by the Qin family's steward. He brought assassins from the Shadow Kill Tower to attack you. This matter has alarmed His Majesty, and the emperor has issued a decree to find out the culprits. If anyone is found colluding with Shadow Kill Tower, they will not be spared. Now, the Qin family is in chaos."

"Yes, I heard that after Dean Chu Weichen got the news of your assassination, he went to sound the Alarm Drum before dawn, accompanied by Prince Kang."

Zhang Ying and Lin Tian chimed in one after the other.

Qin Chen immediately understood that it must have been Prince Kang who did this for him.

"Hmm, your cultivation level..."

Suddenly, Qin Chen noticed Lin Tian and Zhang Ying and was taken aback.

Yesterday, during the major exam, both of them were only at the Human Level mid-stage. In just one day, their cultivation levels had improved significantly, which shocked Qin Chen.

"Hehe, Young Master Chen, you noticed too? We don’t know why, but ever since we practiced the mantras you gave us, the speed of condensing true qi in our bodies has increased several times. Our cultivation levels are growing daily."

Lin Tian and Zhang Ying said excitedly.

"That’s odd."

Qin Chen frowned slightly. The technique he gave them was a very common one in the Martial Domain, combined with some characteristics of the two. Although it could indeed boost their cultivation speed, it shouldn’t be to such an exaggerated extent.

"Come here and let me take a look."

As Qin Chen spoke, he placed his right hand on them, sensing carefully. He immediately perceived a mysterious power in their bodies being activated, exuding a surging aura.

Qin Chen’s gaze hardened, shocked as he looked at Lin Tian and Zhang Ying. Could it be that a special bloodline exists within their bodies? Such a situation generally arises when a hidden bloodline is activated. Apart from this, Qin Chen couldn't think of any other reason.

"Young Master Chen, are we alright?"

Seeing Qin Chen's serious expression, Lin Tian and Zhang Ying asked nervously.

Currently, they were utterly devoted and obedient to Qin Chen.

"It's nothing."

Seeing how tense they were, Qin Chen smiled. He thought he might perform some tests on them later to determine the reason.

"Let’s go!"

After breakfast, Qin Chen walked out.

Lin Tian and Zhang Ying immediately said, "Young Master Chen, you just survived an assassination attempt yesterday. It’s really unsafe outside right now. Why not stay home and wait until His Majesty finds the real culprit?"

"Don't worry, it’s not as unsafe outside as you think. Who would dare to make a move in broad daylight in the capital?"

Lin Tian and Zhang Ying thought about it and found Qin Chen’s words reasonable, so they followed.

"By the way, where are we going?"

Halfway there, the two asked curiously.

"To buy some things."

Qin Chen replied with a smile.

Soon, the three arrived in front of an extravagant building. The entire structure was luxurious with jade carvings and gilded railings, exuding a sense of wealth, overshadowing all surrounding buildings.

The building was seven stories high. Hanging above the massive entrance was a large plaque with the words "Treasure Pavilion" written on it.

"Hiss!"

Lin Tian and Zhang Ying gasped. "Young Master Chen, why are we here?"

The Treasure Pavilion was the most prestigious treasure shop in the Da Qi Kingdom’s capital. It was said that treasures abounded there, with a collection comparable to the royal family.
