After Ji Xin scolded Gu Zhenxiong, Shi Xun looked at Elder Lin,
Elder Lin, later, go find Qin Chu. Youngsters are all quite naive and have strong self-esteem. Given the current situation, he might not come back. If he doesn't come back, it'll make us look like we're afraid of someone! Bring him back, first, to prove that our Alchemist Guild isn't afraid of anyone, and second, Qin Chu is a good Alchemist seed, worthy of our protection.
Elder Lin nodded,
I will arrange this matter, but Vice President Gu might stir up trouble. I wonder if the Guild Chief will intervene.
If the Guild Chief intervenes, then we'll deal with that. For now, we'll stick to the strategy we've decided on,
Ji Xin said.
Because of the injury on his back, he couldn't practice his sword. Qin Chu stayed at the Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan's stronghold, basking in the sun and pondering matters. The Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan's situation was relatively passive, as the White Tiger Sacred Clan and the Blazing Thunder Sacred Clan could unite at any time. At that point, the Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan's current strength wouldn't be enough to withstand them.
Young Lord, don't worry too much. We won't fight openly. If they want to attack us, they'll have nowhere to exert their strength. However, that Shang Tianhua is indeed quite strong. With his White Tiger Soul activated, his strength will instantly increase by three layers. My subordinate is not his opponent, and the Law Enforcement Elder can't hold him off. Perhaps only the Young Mistress can suppress him,
Qingyi said.
Qin Chu didn't speak. Young Mistress… he still needed to quickly research how to save his mother, but it was very difficult. Especially after the news of the Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan re-entering the world spread, the Black Tortoise Sacred Clan's watch would become even stricter. But no matter how strict it was, he had to save her.
While Qin Chu was recovering from his injuries, Elder Lin found Qin Longfeng and explained the Alchemist Guild's intentions.
Elder Lin, you know?
Qin Longfeng looked at Elder Lin with some surprise.
You came at a very opportune time. I paid a little attention, so I know some things. Tell Qin Chu to come back. As long as he is in the Alchemist Guild, he is safe. Also, if he's not here, others will think our Alchemist Guild is not united, and that our Alchemist Guild is afraid of trouble,
Elder Lin said.
Okay! I'll bring him over later. He's currently recovering from his injuries!
Qin Longfeng said.
Elder Lin nodded,
Don't think too much, and don't pay attention to Gu Zhenxiong. He's a despicable fellow.
After parting with Elder Lin, Qin Longfeng went to the Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan's hidden spot and explained the situation to Qingyi. As for Qin Longxuan, he had already left. The City Lord's Mansion forbade him from acting, so he couldn't fight. He needed to return to the Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan and replace some people who could act, so that in case of an emergency, they wouldn't be helpless.
Qingyi thought for a moment,
The Young Lord can go to the Alchemist Guild. The Alchemist Guild is not avoiding the issue; it's to show their strength. So we should cooperate. Of course, this is also a favor.
Qin Longfeng and Qingyi met Qin Chu and explained the situation.
Alright then, I'll go to the Alchemist Guild. I'll heal my injuries while performing Alchemy to earn materials,
Qin Chu said.
Qingyi escorted Qin Chu to the entrance of the Alchemist Guild before leaving!
Seeing Qingyi, who was wearing a bronze mask, many Cultivators looked on with reverence, as this was a person who had fought against the White Tiger Sacred Clan Chief.
Qin Chu safely entered the Alchemist Guild, and only then did Qingyi blend into the crowd. He was currently under the City Lord's Mansion's ban, but if others actively attacked him, he wouldn't be polite.
Back in the Alchemist Guild, Qin Chu greeted acquaintances. When he saw Gu Zhenxiong, Qin Chu smiled.
Seeing Qin Chu with a smile on his face, Gu Zhenxiong wished he could punch him twice directly, but he couldn't. An Alchemist Guild Vice President attacking an Alchemist would be a huge joke.
Qin Chu returned to his previous courtyard, tidied up, and settled in.
Not long after Qin Chu settled in, Lang Lang arrived at the courtyard.
Qin Chu, you're not being fair. You didn't take me to such an exciting battle yesterday!
Seeing Qin Chu, Lang Lang expressed his dissatisfaction.
Brother Lang, I returned quite late yesterday. Besides, I didn't want to drag you into it. Otherwise, the White Tiger Sacred Clan would chase after you to deal with you, and you wouldn't have a peaceful life,
Qin Chu said with a smile.
Lang Lang shook his head,
You still don't understand me. Am I afraid of trouble? I'm only afraid of having no trouble!
Haha! Then that's fine. If anything happens in the future, I'll call you,
Qin Chu said with a smile.
That's right. When your Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan completely rises, I'll also have a backer, right? This is also a gamble. I'm optimistic about your Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan, or more accurately, I'm optimistic about you,
Lang Lang patted Qin Chu's shoulder.
His shoulder being patted pulled at the injury on his back, and Qin Chu grimaced in pain,
I say, Brother Lang, don't pat me. I was cut yesterday. If you pat me again, you'll pat me to pieces.
Uh… then you should slowly recover from your injuries first. The battles outside have nothing to do with you anymore,
Lang Lang said.
At this moment, Qin Longfeng entered Qin Chu's courtyard,
Qin Chu, let me check your injuries.
Thank you, Uncle-Grandpa. Brother Lang, this is my Uncle-Grandpa Longfeng. He is an Alchemist of the Alchemist Guild and also an Elder of my Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan,
Qin Chu introduced.
Lang Lang cupped his fists at Qin Longfeng, who nodded at Lang Lang while examining Qin Chu's injuries.
Uncle-Grandpa, was that person from the City Lord's Mansion who appeared on the battlefield yesterday very strong?
Qin Chu asked, looking at Qin Longfeng.
Yes, General Golden Armor Gongyang Yi, a powerful Elder of the City Lord's Mansion. They should have received the news during the day, otherwise they wouldn't have appeared so promptly,
Qin Longfeng nodded.
He could make Shang Tianhua retreat, so his strength must be very strong,
Qin Chu said, recalling the scene from last night.
Qin Longfeng shook his head,
His strength is good, but not enough to scare Shang Tianhua away, nor to make the Law Enforcement Elder and Protector Qing wary. It's that everyone can't fight him. He represents the City Lord's Mansion. If you fight him, then the City Lord and Vice City Lord of the City Lord's Mansion will act, and the Demon Castle and the Alchemist Guild will also act, becoming public enemies of Holy Martial City.
It's that serious?
Qin Chu was surprised.
Yes, it's that serious. Holy Martial City is the Holy Martial City of all Cultivators. The City Lord's Mansion represents a hundred forces. The Demon Castle, the Alchemist Guild, and other forces all support the City Lord's Mansion. So in Holy Martial City, you can't go against the City Lord's Mansion,
Qin Longfeng said.
You must never provoke the City Lord's Mansion. If you provoke the City Lord's Mansion, then you can't come to Holy Martial City. If you come, they will deal with us,
Lang Lang reminded Qin Chu, worried that Qin Chu's impulsive nature might lead him to go against the City Lord's Mansion.
Qin Chu, don't worry. The Clan Chief and Princess will come later. The Law Enforcement Elder and Protector Qing can no longer fight, but our Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan still has people who can fight,
Qin Longfeng said.
Hearing Qin Longfeng's words, Lang Lang's face was filled with shock. The Vermilion Bird Sacred Clan's Clan Chief has emerged?
