At this moment, as he made his move and released the aura of the Golden Elixir Realm, the surrounding alchemists were all shocked and silenced.
Alchemists generally have low cultivation levels. The link to the origin of this information resides within Nøv€lß¡n★
Even it they have high cultivation levels, they are not particularly good at fighting.
After all, most of their time is spent on alchemy, so how could they have the energy to study combat as well?
Moreover, even if there are some who are good at fighting, it is unlikely that they would offend the Qin family for an unrelated person.
“Please wait.” At this moment, Zhuge Wanqing spoke up, “Master Qin, the Alchemy Convention is about to begin, and every alchemist here is a guest I have invited. I apologize on his behalf and ask Master Qin to show mercy.”
“Well...” Qin Changqing stroked his chin and smiled, “Since Miss Zhuge has interceded, I will let him stay. However, I don’t think he has much ability, Miss Zhuge, so don’t have high expectations.”
“Master Qin is joking. The Alchemy Convention is an opportunity for everyone and an honor for Danqing Pavilion. Alchemy exchange has always been the aim of Danqing Pavilion, not simply judging the level of alchemy skills.”
Quite a good talker, huh?
Qin Changqing smiled inwardly. This girl was from Danqing Pavilion; although her words were very polite, he could still see a sense of arrogance belonging to someone in a higher position from her attitude.
Perhaps to Zhuge Wanqing, Yinxu Prefecture was just a small place, not worth mentioning.
He waved his hand, signaling the two disciples to put Liao Chao down.
“You...” Liao Chao’s face turned green with anger, but in the end, he said nothing.
“Alright, since it’s the Alchemy Convention, let’s begin.” Qin Changqing smiled and looked at the alchemists, “If any of you are interested, you can join my Qin family anytime. Danqing Pavilion might be a powerful force, but a big tree doesn’t necessarily provide good shade.
Although my Qin family is small, we still have some say in Yinxu Prefecture.”
“Besides, my master often said that when an outsider smiles at you, it’s not necessarily because they’re friendly; they might be hiding a knife in their smile. Be careful not to be easily fooled by others when you’re walking around Yinxu or Dongchi County in the future.”
The alchemists looked at each other.
Wasn’t this the same as saying that Danqing Pavilion had ulterior motives?
This Qin Changqing, he sure has guts.
Zhuge Wanqing’s gaze flickered, but she said nothing.
On the other hand, Li Ruoyu beside her couldn’t help but take a second look at Qin Changqing.
“This guy is special, maybe I can try to win him over and use him to suppress my senior sister.” Li Ruoyu thought secretly.
The Alchemy Convention would last for three days.
“You see.” Qin Changqing shook his head, “Even a random disciple from my Dan Peak would be more qualified to sit here than you. Miss Zhuge asked you to join just to make up the numbers, and you really thought you were some kind of important figure.”
“Qin Changqing!” Jin Xiao’s eyes widened in anger.
But he didn’t dare to say anything.
The others felt the same way. Yinxu Prefecture was the territory of the Lingxiao Sect, so at present, the only people who could confront Qin Changqing were from the Danqing Pavilion.
However, Zhuge Wanqing had been staring at the square all along, and it was obvious that she had no intention of helping him. In fact, she was quite annoyed in her heart.
Why couldn’t this Qin Changqing just cooperate?
Although the Lingxiao Sect had a monopoly in Yinxu Prefecture now, Alchemists were still a valuable ‘resource.’ What benefit would there be in offending so many of them for no reason?
She couldn’t help but suspect that Qin Changqing was looking down on these Alchemists because there was an extremely powerful expert in his family.
Unfortunately, Zhuge Wanqing had searched twice but failed to find any mysterious expert among those below.
“By the way, I’ve heard recently that there have been many top-grade elixirs on the Yinxu Prefecture market.’
As she spoke, she pretended to glance casually at Qin Changqing, only to see him still staring enthusiastically at the square.
“Qin family head...” Zhuge Wanqing had no choice but to hint more explicitly,
“It seems that those top-grade elixirs are all from your Qin family’s shops.”
“Oh? Really?” Qin Changqing didn’t even blink, “Maybe, I’m not quite sure, you see, I’m just a small family head. The day-to-day management of the family business is handled by others.”
Zhuge Wanqing was speechless.
You, a small family head?
He played it small now, but didn’t he act big just now?
She knew that Qin Changqing was unwilling to tell the truth.
That was also right; such a talent must be hidden and protected.
Now, she was beginning to doubt whether the mysterious expert had even come to compete.
Maybe... he didn’t even come?
It that was the case, then the purpose of holding this Alchemy Convention would be thwarted by half.
What could she do to make Qin Changqing speak up?
Zhuge Wanqing couldn’t help but ponder.
But she knew that she couldn’t show her eagerness too much, or else Qin Changqing would see through her intentions..
