"If Grandmaster Qing Quan challenged her to an alchemy duel, it would definitely affect his reputation. Doesn't he care?" The Xiang Family's head elder frowned and asked curiously.
"Hmph …"
When he mentioned this, Xiang Ren Han's face flashed with a hint of pain.
How could Grandmaster Qing Quan not care about his reputation? However, the so-called reputation would waver under such great temptation!
Moreover, Tranquil Sun City wasn't considered a first-rate city in this area. If word got out, people would think that the Zhao Family was insensible and offended Grandmaster Qing Quan. That was why he challenged them to an alchemy duel.
Who would laugh at a human alchemist over such a small matter?
Afterwards, Xiang Ren Han led many guards and a few elders towards the Xiang Family. In the middle of their group, there was a luxurious carriage.
Seeing the Xiang Family's head and elders move out, many people on the street had a hint of reverence. When they saw the direction of the Xiang Family's head, many people's expressions became somewhat interesting.
There were also some sharp-eyed people who secretly guessed who was in the carriage. Even the Xiang Family's head wasn't in it. It must be a great figure that even the Xiang Family had to look up to.
Along the way, more and more people gathered to watch. A huge crowd followed behind the Xiang Family's horse as they headed towards the Zhao Family. Xiang Ren Han wasn't the least bit dissatisfied with this. Instead, he had a smile on his face.
For him, the more people he attracted, the better.
As long as there were enough people, how could the Zhao Family refuse the Xiang Family's challenge?
Once they refused, the Zhao Family's medicine store could forget about opening in Tranquil Sun City in the future. As an alchemy family, if they didn't even have the courage to accept an alchemy duel, how could they establish themselves?
…
"Little brother, Old Sixth's words were unintentional. Please don't take it to heart!"
Inside the Zhao Family's house, Zhao Wengting helplessly explained to Qin Yichen. No matter what, Zhao Yarou admitted that it was Qin Yichen who saved her. The latter was the Zhao Family's benefactor.
"Zhao Family's head, Miss Zhao has returned safely. Thank you for your hospitality these days. I still have matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you."
Qin Yichen's face was still gloomy as he casually said.
However, he did not notice that when he said the words "Miss Zhao", Zhao Yarou's expression darkened a little.
"Little brother, please rest for a few more days. Let us, the Zhao Family, play host to you."
Zhao Wengting said with a bitter smile. However, even he felt that it was impossible for the latter to stay.
If it had been him, he wouldn't have been able to take it either if he'd really saved Zhao Yarou and been ridiculed by the family elders.
"No need."
Qin Yichen shook his head and clasped his hands together towards Zhao Wengting. He then looked towards Zhao Yarou, only to discover the reluctance in the latter's eyes.
"Sigh …"
Qin Yichen shook his head. He could tell that Zhao Yarou had developed feelings for him.
However, at this time, he didn't have the time to talk about love. He needed to quickly increase his strength and support so that the Feng Clan could face him head-on.
After he finished speaking, Qin Yichen turned around and walked out.
"Little brother …"
Zhao Wengting sighed softly and prepared to chase after Qin Yichen. However, when he stepped out of the Zhao Residence, his expression suddenly changed and he looked towards the opposite street.
"The Xiang Clan?"
Qin Yichen frowned and looked at the people who came with their men. In Ningyang City, the only people who could cause such a commotion, besides the Zhao family, must be the Xiang family.
However, Qin Yichen did not intend to meddle in other people's business. He didn't want to do such a troublesome and unrewarding task. Moreover, from what he remembered, Zhao Yarou had been able to safely enter Shifang Dan Province after the assassination attempt. It seemed that the Xiang Clan could not do anything to the Zhao Family.
However, Qin Yichen did not realize that because of his intervention, Zhao Yarou's fate had changed. For example, this incident had never happened in his previous life!
"Master, that person's back seems to be the one who saved Zhao Yarou!"
At this moment, a guard ran from the Xiang Clan group to Xiang Renhan's side and spoke in a low voice. He was one of the black-robed men who had not pursued Qin Yichen because he was afraid of him.
"Hm?"
Xiang Ren Han's face sank when he heard this, and then he didn't hesitate to shout loudly, "Stop!"
Following Ren Han's gaze, the crowd, who were following behind to join in the fun, also looked at the figure who had just arrived from the main entrance of the Zhao Clan.
When Qin Yichen heard this voice, his footsteps also stopped. At this moment, he was in a very bad mood …
Zhao Wengting's expression changed abruptly. He did not even have time to think about why Xiang Renhan had come. At this moment, the only thought in his mind was that this was bad. Qin Yichen had been recognized by the Xiang Clan!
A person who had saved their daughter from under their noses, they definitely would not let him go.
"Qin Yichen …"
Zhao Yarou's eyes flashed with anxiety.
"Huff huff …"
Qin Yichen took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled. He clenched his fists and turned around.
"Eh, why did Master Xiang call a young man over?"
"Could it be that the Xiang Clan is not here to cause trouble for the Zhao Residence, but for this kid?"
Seeing Qin Yichen's face, many people who were watching the fun flashed a look of doubt in their hearts.
When Xiang Renhan saw the young man, his brows furrowed. How could this kid save Zhao Yarou?
"You're not deliberately making up an excuse, are you?"
Xiang Renhan confirmed with the guard with a gloomy expression.
"Master, I wouldn't dare, but his back really does look very similar to the one who escaped!"
The guard's gaze swept over Qin Yichen. For a moment, he did not dare to be certain, nor did he dare to say that he had lied to Xiang Renhan.
When he heard this, Xiang Renhan's gaze was fixed on Qin Yichen. For a moment, the place fell into silence. Countless gazes were mixed with doubt as they stared at the young man's figure.
"Kid, I don't know if you've heard about the death of three Martial Kings from my Xiang Clan."
The silence lasted for a moment before Xiang Renhan shouted in a deep voice.
When Xiang Renhan said this, the surrounding crowd immediately burst into an uproar.
It turned out that the death of three Martial Kings from the Xiang Clan was true!
Even though those Martial King experts had taken some kind of medicinal pill and were forever stuck at the initial stage of Martial King, three initial stage Martial Kings were still quite a force to be reckoned with.
