Chapter 1452: Betrayal
An Invitation from a Medicine Master
Since he had obtained the Life-and-Death Vine, Qin Yichen had originally planned to return to the clan.
However, the Drug Weight wanted to hold a celebratory feast. Qin Yichen could not refuse the warm hospitality of the Drug Weight and the others. In the end, he could only agree and return to the Human Tribe after the celebratory feast.
In the following period of time, Yao Xi also followed closely beside Qin Yichen. Even when he was cultivating, Yao Xi also quietly stayed with him in a secret room. They did not leave each other's side at all. They looked like a couple passionately in love.
Although Qin Yichen knew that this was somewhat inappropriate, Yao Xi seemed to have set her mind on him. Regarding this, Qin Yichen could only helplessly acquiesce.
Qin Yichen was well aware of Yao Xi's feelings for him. However, he didn't have much time left in Pill City.
"Sigh, I'll tell her directly after the celebration banquet."
Qin Yichen thought to himself. He could only treat this as a way to make up for her. In his heart, he did not dare to have any special feelings for her.
His identity as a human was too sensitive. If he really did marry Yao Xi, once his identity was exposed, it was likely that Elder Drug Weight's entire family, and even the entire Yao Clan, would be greatly affected.
After making up his mind, Qin Yichen no longer rejected Yao Xi's kind intentions. In fact, he was much closer to Yao Xi.
Yao Xi had also sensed the change in Qin Yichen.
However, this clever girl also faintly guessed in her heart that perhaps this would be the last time she would be with Qin Yichen.
Although he was a member of the Yao clan and had an extremely noble status, he was so outstanding that even the younger generation of the Yao clan could not compare to him!
Yao Xi knew that she could not rely on her feelings to bind Qin Yichen here. The latter's stage would definitely not be satisfied with just being in the Yao clan.
Although she had already guessed many things in her heart, Yao Xi did not show anything other than greedily staying with Qin Yichen.
The two of them seemed to have a tacit understanding. They just quietly stayed together and did not mention anything about the future.
During this period of time, Yao Xi brought Qin Yichen around Pill City for a stroll.
"Hey, Brother Qin!"
That day, under Yao Xi's lead, the two of them were looking around in Pill City's marketplace when a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind them.
"Yao Jie?"
Hearing this voice, Qin Yichen's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise, and he also greeted with a smile.
He had a good impression of Yao Yao. At least, he was Yao was not as. Yao was Yao Yichen........ Instead, Yao Yao Xi, Yao's Yao Yao's motivation..... was Yao Yichen was Yao.
"Young master Yao Jie."
When he saw Yao Jie, Yao Xi also smiled slightly and bowed.
The latter was the undisputed number one person among the younger generation in the Yao clan. Usually, even Yao Wen and the rest would be extremely respectful when they saw him. Back then, when the Drug Weight Clan had declined, Yao Xi did not even have the qualifications to meet the latter.
"Sister-in-law, don't … I can't accept your bow!"
However, Yao Xi was a little surprised when Yao Jie's expression changed slightly when he saw her bow. He actually dodged and spoke with an embarrassed face.
When they saw the commotion, a look of surprise flashed across the faces of countless people on the street.
Given Yao Jie's status, there were not many people who could make him act in this way.
However, when their gazes landed on Qin Yichen, a look of understanding immediately surfaced on everyone's faces.
Everyone was familiar with this fellow, who had defeated everyone in the Medicinal Ceremony and become the champion.
Yao Xi's pretty face turned slightly red when she heard Yao Jie's address. However, just as she was feeling a little shy, Qin Yichen gently pulled her hand.
"Brother Qin is really lucky. Even the great beauty of our Yao clan has been won over by you."
Yao Jie laughed softly when he saw the shy face of Yao Xi.
"Brother Yao Jie, are you jealous?"
Qin Yichen laughed faintly and said.
"A beauty paired with a hero. I am not the least bit jealous."
Yao Jie shook his head and laughed, "Brother Qin, we agreed to have a chat at my place the last time. You made me wait for a long time."
"I was delayed by some matters during these few days. I hope brother Yao Jie will not blame me."
Qin Yichen awkwardly replied.
"It's fine. The place in front is one of my clan's businesses. If brother Qin is free, why don't we go in and take a look?"
Yao Jie pointed at a majestic building in front of them and laughed.
"I have the same intention."
Qin Yichen nodded and said.
Under Yao Jie's lead, the group of people walked towards the building with quick steps.
"Dan Province's Trading Center?"
When they arrived at the building, Qin Yichen was slightly surprised when he saw the plaque on the door.
Before the Medicinal Ceremony, he had obtained the rare Millennium Chilling Ice Fruit and the Spiritual Pearl of Heaven and Earth in Dan Province's Trading Center.
It was also in that Trading Center that Yao Wen was angered to the point of vomiting blood and Yao Ye fled in embarrassment.
"The boss behind the scenes of Dan Province's Trading Center is the Medicinal Pine Elder."
Yao Xi whispered in Qin Yichen's ear.
In fact, it was no secret that there was a powerful person behind Dan Province's Trading Center. However, there were not many people who knew that the person behind the scenes was the Medicinal Pine Elder. Even Yao Xi only learned about it from Yaoxun after returning from there a few days ago.
As soon as he stepped into the Trading Center, several staff members came up to greet him with a respectful expression.
"Brother Qin, please follow me."
Yao Jie chuckled at Qin Yichen and walked straight upstairs.
Qin Yichen nodded and followed closely behind, holding Yao Xi's hand.
This was not the first time he had entered Dan Province's Trading Center. He also knew that the quality of the items on each floor was different. The higher the floor, the more precious the items were.
Under Yao Jie's lead, they went directly to the top floor of the building.
This place was similar to the Dan Province's Trading Center that Qin Yichen had visited before. There were dozens of crystal counters, and in those counters, there were extremely rare items.
"Brother Qin, you can look around first. No matter what you like here, we will give you a fifty percent discount!"
Yao Jie chuckled when he saw Qin Yichen looking around. He winked at Qin Yichen and said with a smile, "I won't disturb you and sister-in-law. Let's catch up later."
"Fifty percent discount …"
Hearing this, Qin Yichen's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that Yao Jie was really willing to be on good terms with him.
