Chapter 54 Qin Father Breakthrough

Liu City, City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord sat in his study, intently reading a book.

To outsiders, it appeared that the City Lord was diligent and hardworking, but in reality, he was reviewing the recent income from his assets.

"Tsk tsk… Not bad. Ever since I annexed a portion of the Zhao Family's assets, my daily income has increased even more.

And this recent closure of the road to Chenyang City is also a good thing.

Cooperating with the Chen Family brings in a large amount of Spirit Stone every day!

Hmm… Not bad."

The City Lord felt that life had been wonderful lately; counting Spirit Stone every day was his happiest moment.

"It seems I can even take a concubine now."

Just as he was imagining a beautiful future, an urgent knocking sounded at the door.

The City Lord frowned: "Come in!"

An old man walked in; it was his steward.

"Master, something terrible has happened!"

'Pa!' The City Lord slammed the table hard and said:

"I get annoyed just looking at you. Can't you report some good news for once? It's always 'something terrible has happened, something terrible has happened'!"

"Yes, yes."

The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

"Speak. What kind of news could make you this flustered?"

The City Lord tossed the account book onto the table and said casually.

The old steward then carefully said:

"Master, according to news gathered by the servants, a Grand Alchemist has joined the Qin Family.

And it is a Grand Alchemist capable of refining high-grade qi gathering pill."

"What?" The City Lord stood up abruptly, no longer looking leisurely at all: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"I wanted to say it as soon as I came in, but didn't you tell me…" the old steward muttered.

The City Lord did not hear the old steward's muttering and instead continued to ask:

"When did this happen?"

"Just now," the old steward replied.

"Troubled times! These are truly troubled times!" The City Lord paced back and forth in the study, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.

A Grand Alchemist would disrupt the entire balance of Liu City, and this was not something he wanted to see.

As for threatening the Grand Alchemist and demanding he stop cooperating with the Qin Family,

that was something he dared not even think about. That would be a death wish; the Alchemist Dao Alliance was not to be trifled with.

If he dared to do such a thing, he would probably be buried by tomorrow.

"Let's go! To the Chen Family!" The City Lord seemed to have made a certain decision.

The night in Liu City was still quiet, but the Qin Family residence was brightly lit.

Qin Family disciples waited anxiously in the main hall, and even the respected Elders sat quietly within the hall.

However, their hands gripping the chairs were trembling slightly, clearly indicating that their hearts were not calm at all.

"It's over, it's over."

Someone shouted loudly.

Hearing this, all the Elders hurriedly ran toward the secluded cultivation room.

Outside the secluded cultivation room, several Elders were standing guard, waiting for the person inside to come out.

"Creak!" The door to the secluded cultivation room was pushed open, and Qin Yuan, dressed in black, walked out.

Facing everyone's gaze, Qin Yuan said firmly:

"I have successfully fulfilled the mission!"

"Good!" several Elders shouted loudly.

The other Qin Family disciples also cheered and jumped for joy.

Qin Ming watched his father with a smile; as soon as his father came out, he sensed that his father had reached the Grand Martial Master Realm.

His father's Talent was actually not bad, but the Qin Family's material conditions were too poor, which was why his father had been unable to achieve a Breakthrough for so long.

Now that the qi gathering pill and Heaven Grade Cultivation Technique were available, his father's cultivation base would surely soar.

He had just broken through to the first level of the Great Martial Master.

He believed that in time, his father would be able to continue breaking through.
