It might seem like Qi Tian didn’t have to put much effort into convincing Li Qingping, but this was only because Qi Tian had numerous methods at his disposal and Li Qingping was caught off guard, thinking he had everything under control, leading to this outcome. However, this doesn’t mean that Li Qingping was an easy target. Within the Li family, Li Qingping held absolute authority and no one dared to question any of his decisions.

Although it felt somewhat excessive and unnecessary for Li Qingping to immediately dispatch five Nascent Soul Masters to guard Qi Tian, they still solemnly complied. First, they bowed together towards Qi Tian and then stood behind him to express their respect and favor.

Li Qingping said, “Little brother, you go ahead. I will have someone secretly follow along. If you all together can’t solve the problem, I will rush over immediately. Even if it really causes a fallout with the Chen family, it doesn’t matter. It’s just a fight to the death between two families.”

Qi Tian chuckled, unconcerned, and said, “No need to make it sound so serious, it’s not that big of a deal.”

After leaving Li Qingping’s residence, Qi Tian and the others hurriedly rushed towards the market.

What kind of personalities these people had and whether they had any reservations in their actions, Qi Tian had no idea at all. Despite what Qi Tian said nonchalantly earlier, he was actually quite concerned about Huang Liuyan’s safety.

The market was somewhat far from Li Qingping’s residence, roughly five or six li away, a distance that wouldn’t take long for Li Qingping and his group to cover.

They traveled by sword-flying, quickly arriving at the market, where, under the guidance of people from the Li family, Qi Tian met Li Rusen and Huang Liuyan who were surrounded.

Huang Liuyan and the others hadn’t suffered any harm. At the time, to reassure Qi Tian enough to enter his residence, not only had Li Qingping sent Li Rusen as an escort, but also dispatched over a dozen subordinates. Now, these subordinates were surrounding Huang Liuyan and Li Rusen, blocking any harassment from outsiders.

However, there were even more people from the Chen family, around twenty or thirty, including a few Nascent Soul Masters. But they didn’t intervene, standing arms crossed at the outermost perimeter, coldly watching everything unfold with sneers.

Qi Tian had no intention of clarifying the cause and result of the events, he just directly led his group down from the sky towards where Huang Liuyan was located.

The arrival of so many people created quite an imposing scene that immediately alarmed the two confronting groups.

Huang Liuyan looked up, saw Qi Tian, and immediately felt relieved. She jumped towards Qi Tian, waving her arms.

“Junior Brother, I’m over here,” she called.

When Li Rusen saw Qi Tian’s face, a spark of hatred flickered through his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it. Following that, he glanced at the Nascent Soul Masters with Qi Tian, and his expression relaxed. Nonetheless, confusion soon covered his face; he thought to himself that the family Ancestor was unusually generous this time to send so many Masters for support. Such generosity was unprecedented. Could it be that relations with the Chen family had grown this tense? He quickly reminded himself to be cautious later on. If a battle broke out with the Chen family, he must not charge forward lest he get caught in the skirmish between Nascent Soul Masters.

The observing Nascent Soul Masters quickly turned solemn, shedding any derision they might have felt. They exchanged glances, then started to move, initially securing advantageous positions in the terrain so that they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage if a fight broke out later.

Qi Tian landed beside Huang Liuyan and asked, “Senior Sister, are you alright?”

The Nascent Soul Masters who had come with Qi Tian didn’t land with him but remained in the air, feet on their flying swords, eyes fiercely fixed on the people below. They too chose advantageous positions, for the dominance of the sky was incomparable to the ground.

Huang Liuyan said, “I’m fine. It’s just that these people are so annoying. I had already picked out an item and even agreed on the price with the vendor, but then they suddenly burst out and insisted on fighting with me for it.”

Qi Tian nodded and asked, “What treasure was it that caught your interest, Senior Sister?”

“This one,” Huang Liuyan said, pulling out a palm-sized plant from her Storage Bag. The plant seemed unremarkable at first glance, with a branch bearing about seven or eight sparse leaves, sporting a small yellow flower in the middle that resembled a daisy.

Qi Tian recognized this plant; it was a kind of precious herb known as Multi-leaf Chrysanthemum. Though not extremely common in the Cultivation World, it was not particularly rare either and could easily be acquired for a certain price. For such a Multi-leaf Chrysanthemum, it seemed somewhat irrational for so many from the Chen family to surround Huang Liuyan and Li Rusen.

Worried he might have mistaken it or overlooked something, Qi Tian quickly activated the Heavenly Dao Engine’s Spirit Qi sensing function, giving the Multi-leaf Chrysanthemum a thorough scan, yet he discovered nothing unusual. It truly was just an ordinary Multi-leaf Chrysanthemum.
