Chapter 803, Seeking Revenge

Translator: Silavin

 

Under Qin Yichen’s questioning, the two newcomers finally revealed the full sequence of events.

 

It turned out that Yi Buzui, whose face had been swept aside by Li Yuanba’s overwhelming display, could not swallow this humiliation. He had called upon his Senior Brother, Yi Buyan.

 

Yi Buyan’s cultivation had already reached the Peak Stage Martial Emperor Realm!

 

Among the Outer Disciples, his strength ranked within the top thirty!

 

Though Li Yuanba’s Physique was formidable, compared to Yi Buyan, there remained a considerable gap between them.

 

After a brutal round of combat, Li Yuanba ultimately proved no match. He ended up severely wounded. If Qin Yichen had not been present, his situation would likely have become dire!

 

Listening to the newcomer’s account, Qin Yichen’s expression became completely dark. If Li Yuanba had been beaten like this in normal combat training, Qin Yichen absolutely would not interfere in such matters.

 

However, for someone ranked in the top thirty among the Outer Disciples to strike a newly-entered Sacred Land Disciple with such vicious force, merely to vent Yi Buzui’s anger, this ignited a burning fury within his heart.

 

“Yi Buyan, is it?!” A cold gleam flashed through Qin Yichen’s eyes. Then he strode toward the exit.

 

“Qin Yichen, what are you doing?” Seeing Qin Yichen’s movement, Bai Ling hastily blocked his path, calling out.

 

She had heard of Yi Buyan. His strength was absolutely beyond question. Moreover, Yi Buyan’s Martial Soul was extraordinarily powerful. Relying on his Martial Soul, he had no rivals within the Martial Emperor Realm!

 

Yet Qin Yichen, in Bai Ling’s eyes, was a prodigious Alchemist!

 

If relying on influence alone, Qin Yichen certainly would not be inferior to Yi Buyan. But observing Qin Yichen’s current demeanour, it was clear he intended to confront Yi Buyan alone!

 

One must understand: Yi Buyan was no benevolent figure easy to reason with. Though Qin Yichen had attracted Dong Yu’s attention, his reputation had not yet spread. Given Yi Buyan’s temperament, he definitely would not show restraint.

 

Should anything happen to Qin Yichen, it would represent an incalculable loss. This was not merely for the entire Brilliant Sky Sacred Land, but for the World of Alchemy itself.

 

Because while every Sacred Land could research Pills with different medicinal properties, apart from witnessing Qin Yichen’s miraculous refinement today, no one had ever succeeded!

 

“Move aside.”

 

Facing Bai Ling’s obstruction, Qin Yichen didn’t even spare her a glance. His voice carried not a trace of emotion. It was ice-cold and absolute. His entire presence radiated a chilling killing intent that froze the blood!

 

Hearing this voice, for reasons Bai Ling could not articulate, her feet involuntarily retreated a step. In her eyes, it was shocking for the typically gentle Qin Yichen to possess such an ice-cold facet!

 

While she remained stunned, Qin Yichen had already walked past her, carrying boundless murderous pressure with complete indifference.

 

Watching Qin Yichen’s retreating back, Bai Ling felt her nose sting with emotion. A wave of grievance suddenly surged through her heart. She, who was regarded as a treasure by the Southern Brilliant Hall, when had anyone ever treated her like this?

 

“What are you all standing around for? Carry him to the side hall to rest!” Finally, Bai Ling stamped her small foot, pouted, and ran out.

 

Seeing Bai Ling’s unusual state, the several powerful figures guarding the Southern Brilliant Hall exchanged puzzled glances.

 

The Southern Brilliant Hall never provided resting places for outsiders, let alone someone grievously wounded and on death’s threshold.

 

However, when they observed Li Yuanba’s breath gradually stabilising, his life at least no longer in immediate danger, astonishment flickered through everyone’s eyes.

 

Qin Yichen had actually revived someone from the brink of certain death!?

 

“No wonder Bai Ling lost her composure like that!” Realising this, the powerful experts guarding the Southern Brilliant Hall exchanged glances, then moved toward Li Yuanba.

 

“Thank you…” Witnessing this scene, the two newcomers expressed continuous gratitude.

 

“Alright, you should leave now.” To restore tranquillity to the Southern Brilliant Hall, after carefully carrying Li Yuanba away, those powerful experts addressed the two newcomers.

 

…

 

In a pavilion adjacent to the Southern Brilliant Hall, a graceful figure rushed in urgently. Simultaneously, an anxious voice rang out.

 

“Uncle Dong, Uncle Dong…” Just as she entered, Bai Ling nearly collided with Dong Yu, who was preparing to depart for the Inner Sect.

 

“Girl, didn’t you say you’d reformed this impetuous habit of yours? Look at you…” Regarding the slightly breathless Bai Ling before him, Dong Yu couldn’t help shaking his head. He asked, “What’s so urgent?”

 

“Qin… Qin Yichen…” Bai Ling pointed outside, gasping for breath. “He’s gone to the Battle Hall!”

 

“Battle Hall? What’s he doing there?” Dong Yu’s brow furrowed. [That boy’s an Alchemist, isn’t he? If he wanted Contribution Points, there was no need to visit such a place.]

 

“Just… just now the Southern Brilliant Hall received a heavily wounded burly man who’d been beaten nearly to death. He seems to be someone extremely important to Qin Yichen. When he left, his expression was terrifying. He’s definitely gone to find Yi Buyan!”

 

Without hesitation, Bai Ling related the events, including Qin Yichen’s treatment methods…

 

“That Medicine Saint with life-restoring, bone-regenerating efficacy… an Immortal Bodhi Vine? Damn it! Just how stupid is that Yi Buyan! To think he would beat someone to that state, wasting the Immortal Bodhi Vine so carelessly! This won’t do! I must immediately report this matter to the higher-ups!”

 

After listening to Bai Ling’s account, astonishment surfaced in Dong Yu’s eyes. Then he hurried out of the pavilion, hastening toward the central region of the Outer Sect, where the Transport Array to the Inner Sect was located.

 

…

 

In stark contrast to the Southern Brilliant Hall’s quiet atmosphere was the Northern Brilliant Battle Hall, brimming with commotion!

 

Currently, somewhere within the Northern Brilliant Hall, a group of Outer Disciples clustered around a figure. Various flattering voices never ceased.

 

“Truly worthy of Senior Brother Yi!”

 

“How could that brute bull be Senior Brother Yi’s match!”

 

“Senior Brother Yi’s current strength probably ranks within the top ten now!”

 

Wave after wave of unrestrained laughter continuously rang out. Face after face wore ingratiating expressions, paying compliments to the figure at the centre.

 

At their centre stood a youth wearing azure robes. He appeared approximately twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He was not particularly handsome; his eye sockets were slightly sunken. However, those eyes possessed the piercing sharpness of an eagle’s gaze. When they swept across others, hearts instinctively recoiled in fear.

 

Throughout the Battle Hall, from time to time, gazes would steal glances in their direction, all containing respectful wariness.

 

This person was Yi Buyan.

 

Not long ago, Yi Buyan had struck against a newcomer. Yet not a single person dared criticise him in the slightest. Not merely because his strength was formidable, but most importantly, within the Sacred Land, no one cared whether that person was a newcomer or not. Here, without strength, no one would sympathise with them!

 

“Are you Yi Buyan?” Amidst the wave of flattering voices, a cold voice suddenly resonated throughout the space.

 

Hearing this voice, every gaze shot toward its source.

 

What they saw: separated by the clustered crowd, opposite Yi Buyan stood a slender figure. When observing this figure, many felt their hearts constrict.

 

Because emanating from that figure was an intensely powerful killing intent!

 

“Insolent! How dare you directly address Senior Brother Yi by his name!”

 

Upon sensing that the figure possessed merely Early Stage Martial Emperor Realm aura, someone immediately leapt forward, loudly rebuking him.
