Chapter 625, Unable to Restrain One’s Emotions

Translator: Silavin

 

“Spiritual Rupture Realm? How is it possible that you are also at the Spiritual Rupture Realm!?” The White Cloud Manor Master cried out in a sharp voice, his voice filled with disbelief.

 

At such an age, to reach the Spiritual Rupture Realm, Qin Yichen would be considered a super genius cultivated with all the resources of a First Tier Force within the Imperial City.

 

He was well aware of Qin Yichen’s background.

 

He was merely someone who had emerged from a small kingdom within a Grand Empire. Even if he possessed amazing talent and had encountered some opportunities, he absolutely should not possess such high Spiritual Energy cultivation.

 

“Is it so strange?” Qin Yichen smiled calmly and said, “If I had not even reached the Spiritual Rupture Realm, how could I have defeated Qian Zhengchen and claimed victory in the Alchemy Manor Summit?”

 

“What!? You defeated Qian Zhengchen and won the Alchemy Manor Summit!?” Upon hearing these words, the White Cloud Manor Master’s face immediately turned pale, and his pupils revealed a trace of disbelief.

 

The champion of the Alchemy Manor Summit carried a title far more prestigious than that of a mere regional Alchemy Manor Master. Even within the Imperial Dynasty, in terms of status, this title was far superior to his own.

 

Moreover, most importantly, he had defeated Qian Zhengchen!?

 

As someone from the Imperial City, he knew very well what kind of person Qian Zhengchen was. He was one of those people chosen by Heaven!

 

“Impossible!” The White Cloud Manor Master still could not believe that Qin Yichen had defeated Qian Zhengchen.

 

“The White Cloud Alchemy Manor must not have been well-informed.” Qin Yichen chuckled softly, his Spiritual Energy firmly locking onto the White Cloud Manor Master, his gaze ice-cold.

 

[It’s over!] Feeling this Spiritual Energy pressure that was several times stronger than his own, the White Cloud Manor Master finally felt a trace of fear in his heart. [Might what he said be true? That he had defeated Qian Zhengchen!?]

 

“You cannot kill me! I am an Alchemy Manor Master! If you kill me, the Alchemy Council will never let you go!” At this moment, he could only bring out his own identity, hoping it would have a deterrent effect and make Qin Yichen wary.

 

However, he underestimated Qin Yichen, whose anger had been provoked.

 

Before his words had finished, that Spiritual Energy struck like a sharp sword, piercing into his Knowledge Sea and ruthlessly attacking his Spiritual Body.

 

In just an instant, the White Cloud Manor Master spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his spirit completely deflated.

 

“Quickly retreat!” In the next moment, a weak and powerless voice emerged from his mouth. Then, the seven great commanders hastily descended and, supporting the unconscious White Cloud Manor Master, fleeing in embarrassment.

 

Regarding their departure, Qin Yichen did not pursue to kill them all.

 

That previous strike had already completely shattered the White Cloud Manor Master’s Spiritual Body. In other words, the White Cloud Manor Master was already finished!

 

The reason Qin Yichen did not kill him directly was out of consideration for Dan Xuan in the Alchemy Council.

 

After all, as the White Cloud Manor Master had said, he was a Manor Master. Killing him would be equivalent to challenging the authority of Alchemy Council!

 

As the seven great commanders fled in embarrassment, the coalition army also retreated like a tide.

 

Witnessing the sudden reversal, Twilight City erupted in earth-shaking cheers.

 

Countless people who had originally thought they would face national destruction and Family ruin today could not contain their excitement. The cheers of survival after disaster soared to the Heavens.

 

“Qin Yichen…” Seeing this scene, on the city walls, Xia Zelei was dumbfounded, completely unable to recover his senses.

 

Qin Yichen’s strength completely exceeded his imagination!

 

Originally, he had thought Qin Yichen would have made some progress, but he had never expected this kind of soaring advancement!

 

It should be noted that Qin Yichen had left the Great Prosperity Grand Empire only a year ago, and when he departed, he was merely an Early Stage Martial King, with his Spiritual Energy cultivation just barely making him a Human Grade Alchemy Master.

 

Now, even an Alchemy Manor Master was no match for him!

 

Xia Zelei no longer knew what to say.

 

“So strong!” Xia Ziyi, who had originally regarded Qin Yichen as his goal, could only smile bitterly at this moment.

 

How could he possibly catch up?!

 

Xia Ziyi, was now considered one of the top geniuses in the Great Prosperity Grand Empire. However, in front of Qin Yichen, he was insignificant.

 

Beside him, Xia Zilin said nothing, but her eyes were somewhat red.

 

The moment Qin Yichen turned around, she ran straight towards him, and under Qin Yichen’s astonished gaze, she directly embraced him.

 

With soft jade in his arms and warm fragrance filling his senses, Qin Yichen appeared somewhat at a loss, not knowing where to place his hands. Finally, he gently embraced her back and whispered softly in her ear. “I’m sorry you had to suffer so much.”

 

He could imagine the enormous pressure an army of seven Grand Empires had brought upon her.

 

Originally, she could have handed over the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce to protect herself, but she had not done so.

 

Clearly, this was because of him, showing the depth of her feelings.

 

It would be absolutely false to say Qin Yichen was not moved.

 

If Xia Zilin had not protected the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce, when he returned, the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce and all his loved ones would likely have been unable to escape disaster.

 

On the city walls, the numerous soldiers and the powerful figures who had come from the Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce all showed ambiguous expressions upon seeing this scene.

 

However, no one spoke up to disturb this moment of tranquillity.

 

After a moment, as if suddenly realising something, Xia Zilin came to her senses and discovered that she had actually thrown herself into Qin Yichen’s arms in front of so many people.

 

Immediately, her pretty face turned completely red.

 

Originally, after learning that Qin Yichen already had a Wife and several close female companions, she had always restrained her emotions. However, when Qin Yichen appeared like a Divine God, overwhelming the seven great commanders, severely injuring the White Cloud Manor Master, and causing the coalition army to retreat, she momentarily lost herself and acted so inappropriately.

 

“Hehe.” Looking at the beauty who, like an ostrich, was desperately burying herself in his embrace, Qin Yichen chuckled softly and openly took her hand, walking towards Xia Zelei.

 

“Let’s return to the Royal Palace first.”

 

Looking at the two people before him, Xia Zelei’s face rarely showed a smile.

 

If it had been before, knowing that Qin Yichen already had close female companions, he would absolutely not have allowed these two to associate.

 

After all, Xia Zilin was destined to remain the Empress of the Great Prosperity Grand Empire.

 

But now, he tacitly approved.

 

Xia Zelei understood very well what kind of existence an Alchemy Manor Master was, and he had also heard of the Alchemy Manor Summit.

 

The Alchemy Manor Summit was a grand event of the Imperial Dynasty!

 

It was not difficult to imagine that the current Qin Yichen was already a highly sought-after figure in the Imperial Dynasty.

 

It could be said that it was their Royal Family reaching above their station by trying to tie him down through a union.

 

Drawing closer to Qin Yichen would bring enormous benefits to the Royal Family and the Great Prosperity Grand Empire.

 

As they walked towards the street, the soldiers in the city finally began to cheer, and immediately, the smoke of war dispersed and joy emerged.
