The apple of Chen’s eye

The Female Boss said with difficulty: "It's not about the Spirit Stones. Business must be conducted with integrity. Since the guest has booked our entire inn, naturally I cannot accept your Spirit Stones."

A trace of mockery appeared on the young girl's beautiful face: "Your inn talks about integrity? This is the first time I've heard that. Fine, I won't waste words with you. I am the youngest princess of the Chen Family. If you make things difficult for me, I'll immediately tell my father."

"This…" The Female Boss did not know what to do. She certainly knew that this young girl was the Chen Family's beloved daughter, but Young Master Shen had sternly said that absolutely no one was allowed in. If she let this young girl in, and Young Master Shen blamed her, she could not bear the consequences.

"Let her in." Shen Ba stood upstairs and said loudly.

Hearing Shen Ba's approval, the Female Boss immediately stepped aside to let the young girl in.

The young girl glanced upstairs and walked in on her own.

"Miss Chen, what would you like to eat? I'll have someone prepare it right away." The Female Boss immediately went over to greet her.

Shen Ba looked at the young girl below, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

"The women of the Chen Family are all of high quality!"

Seeing Shen Ba's expression, the Severed-Finger Martial Artist knew what Shen Ba was thinking and said worriedly: "Young Master Shen, Miss Chen is not someone to be trifled with. Her father dotes on her very much."

"I know." Shen Ba waved his hand, "I understand her father's strength. Offending the Chen Family would do me no good."

Although he was now scheming against Chen Nan, it was all under the table. As long as it wasn't brought into the open, it would be fine.

The Shen Family and the Chen Family had never had a good relationship, so mutual antagonism was normal.

If he were to forcefully take the Chen Family's youngest daughter now, the Chen Family Head would be at odds with him to the death, both emotionally and in principle.

Even if he didn't die, he would lose his standing in the Shen Family. He was a very ambitious man and would not be foolish in this regard.

…

"The Chen Family's beloved daughter?" Qin Ming, in his room, saw everything clearly using the Heavenly Eye.

"The Heavenly Eye is really useful. I didn't expect that now, with the Power of Heaven and Earth, I could see so far." Previously, Qin Ming's Heavenly Eye could only see up to ten li, but now, with the Power of Heaven and Earth, he could see two hundred li.

A distance of two hundred li, even on an endless plain, the Heavenly Eye could play a very significant role.

Shaking his head, Qin Ming stopped thinking about the Heavenly Eye. This Innate Divine Ability, he had no idea how to make it grow.

Now that he had advanced to Martial Emperor, the Heavenly Eye's ability had increased a lot, which was good for him.

To make it progress further, he estimated he would need to advance to Martial Venerable. As for other than improving his strength to drive the Heavenly Eye's progress, he had no other way.

"Chen Family. Hmph…" Qin Ming coldly glanced in the direction of the Chen Family, a plan quietly forming in his mind.

Since this time he intended to deal with both the Chen Family and the Shen Family together, investigating intelligence naturally meant gathering information on both families together.

Quietly leaving the inn, Qin Ming arrived at a shop selling Medicinal Pills.

The shop was ordinary, and not many Martial Artists came to buy pills. The shop's assistant was a Middle-aged Man.

"Welcome to our shop. What do you need, guest?"

"Give me seven qi refining pills, eight Qi Increasing Pills, and nine qi gathering pills." Qin Ming looked into the Middle-aged Man's eyes and said.

The Middle-aged Man paused: "Guest, the shop only has eight qi gathering pills."

"Then make it seven." Qin Ming smiled.

"Then please follow me to the back. I'll get them for you inside." The Middle-aged Man lifted the curtain and made a gesture inviting him in.
