Chapter 837, Return to Heavenly Unicorn

Translator: Silavin

 

After spending several days in Heavenly Dragon Imperial City, Lu Xiaoguan, having received Qin Yichen’s message, swiftly rushed over from the Lu Clan.

 

Following Lu Xiaoguan’s arrival at the Imperial Dynasty, Qin Yichen, accompanied by Feng Qianxue, Lu Xiaoguan, and Ye Liangchen along with other high-ranking members of Soaring Joy Chamber Of Commerce, boarded a Martial Emperor Realm Flying Demonic Beast and set off towards Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.

 

…

 

Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.

 

When the morning rays enveloped the entire Royal City, an endless stream of visitors gathered before the Qin Family Residence located at the city’s most central position. The most powerful Forces from various Dynasties stood respectfully waiting before the Qin Family Residence. Many passersby, upon glimpsing the emblems representing various Forces on the robes of those gathered, couldn’t help but raise their eyebrows in secret astonishment, their hearts stirring with shock.

 

The entire Qin Family Residence maintained exceptionally strict security today. Any non-Qin Family member walking the nearby streets immediately attracted numerous vigilant gazes. The slightest hint of suspicious behaviour would instantly draw multiple attacks.

 

At the main gate of the Qin Family Residence, Qin Baihe, Qin Haoran, along with Lu Heze, Xia Zilin and others stood with faint smiles, their gazes fixed upon the distant horizon.

 

*Screech!* After an indeterminate period, a tiny black dot appeared on the far horizon. Simultaneously, a Flying Demonic Beast’s cry rang out like rolling thunder, resonating far and wide.

 

Upon hearing this cry, countless people felt the Yuan Energy within their bodies suddenly stagnate. Immediately after, fiery gazes turned towards the distant sky.

 

In merely moments, that black dot rapidly enlarged under everyone’s watchful eyes. Then, accompanied by fierce gusting winds, an incomparably majestic Flying Demonic Beast landed above the Qin Family Residence.

 

Several figures leapt down from the beast. Despite deliberately restraining their auras, when they touched ground, an oppressive atmosphere still made countless onlookers catch their breath.

 

“Grandfather, Father, Father-in-law, Yichen has returned!”

 

Gazing at the familiar faces before him, Qin Yichen’s face revealed a smile emanating from deep within his heart.

 

“Grandfather, Uncle…” Beside him, Feng Qianxue also offered respectful greetings to the gathered elders.

 

“Good, good. It’s wonderful that you’ve returned!” Qin Baihe’s aged eyes crinkled into narrow crescents with delight, nodding repeatedly. Beside him, Qin Haoran wore an expression of unmistakable pride. When Lu Heze saw Feng Qianxue, a trace of surprise flickered through his eyes. He shook his head subtly but said nothing further.

 

After all, he had never expected his Daughter could monopolise such an outstanding young man…

 

Xia Zilin’s face flashed with momentary awkwardness. Inwardly sighing, she approached Feng Qianxue with a warm, welcoming smile, displaying none of a Grand Empire Queen’s bearing. “Sister Qianxue, please come inside quickly…”

 

Amidst countless respectful gazes, Qin Yichen and his companions walked inside with smiles.

 

On the Flying Demonic Beast, Lu Xiaoguan grumbled with dissatisfaction.

 

He had not even brought Gongshu Zhiyi on this journey, as Qin Yichen had assigned him a task: to establish an Array at the Withered Frost Grass Production Area within the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty.

 

As the Young Master of the Lu Clan, descendants of Lu Ban Sect, his accomplishments in Arrays were considerable. This was precisely why Qin Yichen had sought his assistance.

 

Qin Yichen had not concealed anything from him. Understanding the critical importance of Withered Frost Grass, Lu Xiaoguan shook his head helplessly. The Flying Demonic Beast beneath his feet suddenly shot skyward, streaking towards a specific direction.

 

Meanwhile, within a small courtyard of the Qin Family Residence, Qin Yichen mysteriously produced a pot of tea that had already cooled, pouring cups for everyone present.

 

Observing the tea water tinged with verdant green, everyone’s expressions grew solemn. They naturally understood that anything Qin Yichen brought forth would be no ordinary item.

 

“Grandfather, Father…” Qin Yichen cupped his fists towards the assembly, gesturing with his hand. “This tea must be consumed in one gulp. Don’t sip it slowly…”

 

Following his instruction, everyone lifted their cups with some bewilderment, then drank completely.

 

“This… what is this?!” The moment the tea entered their throats, everyone’s expressions changed involuntarily. They could distinctly feel their spirits suddenly reinvigorated upon drinking. Even Qin Baihe felt as though he’d grown ten years younger!

 

“Elf Tea. It will increase your lifespan.” Observing his numerous relatives’ reactions, Qin Yichen smiled faintly as he explained.

 

“*Siii…* Increase our lifespan!?”

 

Hearing those words, Qin Baihe and the others trembled. Even without understanding what Sacred Lands were, they clearly grasped the preciousness of anything that could extend life.

 

After all, countless powerful cultivators facing their final moments found themselves helpless, meeting their end with bitter regret.

 

Items that increased lifespan attracted endless pursuers, yet few could obtain even an opportunity!

 

This revealed the extraordinary value of anything capable of extending one’s lifespan!

 

“You… you foolish boy, why didn’t you drink any yourself? You only gave it to us!” Qin Baihe slapped his thigh in dismay, speaking with considerable reproach in his tone.

 

“Grandfather, rest assured. The Sacred Land Hall Master specifically prepared this for all of you. I’ve already drunk my share.”

 

Feeling this Familial affection, warmth flooded Qin Yichen’s heart. He immediately smiled as he explained.

 

“Sacred Land Hall Master…” Hearing this title, everyone gasped sharply. Such a figure existed absolutely beyond their reach! Yet such a person would bestow such a precious tea upon them?

 

“No matter how great one’s accomplishments, what meaning does it hold without Family?” Qin Yichen spoke with a smile, his tone revealing utmost sincerity.

 

Hearing his words, everyone understood these came from his innermost heart. Qin Baihe and the others gazed at this young man with gratification.

 

This young man hadn’t become arrogant due to his changed status. What a truly fine Son of the Qin Family!

 

…

 

Following Qin Yichen’s return, Qin Baihe was in too much joy, directly hosting a banquet of ten thousand tables throughout the Royal City, entertaining those various Forces who had travelled far to visit Qin Yichen.

 

Countless Elders throughout the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty sighed with regret at this, secretly lamenting why they hadn’t extended assistance when the Qin Family had fallen on hard times.

 

However, by now, those wishing to curry favour couldn’t even queue up…

 

Within the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty, Qin Yichen and his companions remained for nearly ten full days.

 

Qin Yichen did not conceal matters concerning Lu Linghan and Little Ling’er.

 

However, to reassure everyone, Qin Yichen vaguely mentioned the Mother and Daughter had been accepted as Disciples by an influential figure from a major Force, telling Lu Heze and the others not to worry. That this was an invaluable opportunity for them.
