"Do you dislike me? I know my character, and few people can accept it..."

Hearing Qin Yichen's words, Shen Ling's beautiful eyes suddenly opened, a mist filled them, and she was about to cry.

Even though she has a carefree personality, if it weren't for the elders in the clan threatening her with the prosperity of the family, Shen Fanwen's side attack, and Qin Yichen being her favorite, Shen Ling wouldn't have done anything to kill her.

This kind of thing happens.

But now, she was rejected by Qin Yichen. One can imagine how she felt.

If there was a hole in the ground, she would definitely crawl into it without hesitation.

But in fact, what made her sad the most was because... Qin Yichen rejected her.

After all, her love for Qin Yichen was real.

"Ahem...you misunderstood, then, I am not from a hermit family!"

Qin Yichen coughed awkwardly and touched the bridge of his nose.

It's not because Shen Ling is not beautiful enough. Speaking of it, Shen Ling is also a rare beauty. However, this situation is not what he wants to see.

What he dislikes the most is treating feelings as a transaction!

"Aren't you from the Hermit family?"

Shen Ling, who was originally sad, looked obviously startled on her pretty face, and then she became even sadder.

She thought Qin Yichen was perfunctory with her.

In various areas of the dynasty, there are many powerful hermit families. They are even more powerful than some of the first-rate forces in the dynasty. In particular, some ancient hermit families have a rich and unfathomable foundation.

Perhaps because of the ancestral precepts, or perhaps because of some other reasons, the people of these hermit families do not go out to travel, nor do they fight for power and wealth. However, no one can ignore their power.

There are even rumors that behind several of the first-rate forces in the dynasty, there is the support of the hermit family.

Among them, the Qian family is one of them.

It is said that when the head of the Qian family was young, he met a woman from a hermit family who was traveling abroad. The two fell in love at first sight and got married. After having children, they gained the secret support of the hermit family.

Otherwise, how could the Qian family be able to compete with the Jishitang Branch of the Feng Clan based on their background?

You know, in business, what matters is the quality of what you sell. If the Qian family doesn't have any skills, even if they have enough power in the imperial city, they won't be able to compete with the Wind clan for profit.

And Qin Yichen's various amazing performances since he appeared in Shifangdan Mansion are not like a person from a low-level kingdom as he said, but more like an experienced disciple from a hermit family.

After all, if it weren't for those hermit families with such terrifying foundations, how could anyone achieve such an achievement at such an age!

No wonder Shen Ling thought he was perfunctory.

"I know this seems very..., but I have no other choice. If you can help our Shen family, then even if I am a slave, I will be willing to..."

Shen Ling's voice suddenly showed a kind of weakness that had never been heard before.

Looking at Shen Ling's charming face with pear blossoms and rain, Qin Yichen took a deep breath. It seemed that this girl had no idea that she was being treated as a victim by several elders.

Seeing Shen Ling like this, Qin Yichen felt a little relieved, and he originally wanted to mention Shen Fangu.

After pondering for a while, Qin Yichen paused and said: "I think the master's spiritual power has reached the peak of the Ling Po realm, and he is only one step away from reaching the level of an Earth-level alchemist."

"Perhaps I can help him break through to become an Earth-level alchemist."

Qin Yichen said slowly, but this simple sentence was like thunder in Shen Ling's ears.

"Really?"

Hearing this, Shen Ling's beautiful eyes couldn't help but widen. After a brief moment of astonishment, a smile as beautiful as a peony bloomed on her cheeks.

"You're already like this. If I don't agree again, won't I be able to leave this room?"

Qin Yichen coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Put your robe on first to prevent anyone from breaking in."

"You...you close your eyes first..."

At this moment, Shen Ling felt a chill, remembering that she was standing naked in front of the person she admired, her pretty face turned slightly red, and her voice was as low as a mosquito, inaudible.

"Didn't you read everything just now?"

Qin Yichen couldn't help but blurt out a blunt statement. He immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly stopped talking. Looking at Shen Ling, whose pretty face was almost as red as a burning cloud, he laughed dryly and closed his eyes.

As Qin Yichen closed his eyes, there was a heart-stirring sound of rustling clothes in the room. A moment later, a faint fragrance came. Before Qin Yichen could react, he felt

When he arrived, his lips were gently covered with soft and hot lips.

"Thank you."

The soft touch only lasted for a moment, and then left like lightning. Then, a whisper whispered quietly in Qin Yichen's ears. Amidst the creaking of the door, the beautiful figure disappeared into the moonlight with a faint fragrance.

As the fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose slowly dissipated, Qin Yichen slowly opened his eyes and looked at the ajar door. He couldn't help but sigh, a woman's thoughts were really difficult to fathom.

"Just think of it as repaying the palace master for giving me the Burning Heart Fruit and the Heavenly Silkworm Spirit Cocoon."

Qin Yichen chuckled in his heart, shook his head, and closed the door.

"call……"

Then, Qin Yichen casually laid down a mental barrier and wrapped the room in it. Then, he took a long breath, turned his hands, and took the piece of flying star spirit crystal that he had bought at the Beidou auction from the ring.

Take it out and place it in front of you.

Looking at the flying star crystal horns, which looked like ordinary stones, Qin Yichen also wanted to shake his head.

If he hadn't known that there would be spiritual seeds in it, he would never have bought it.

He is a human-level alchemist, but he doesn't have the ability to identify stones.

Only earth-level alchemists who have opened their divine eyes can discern stones.

What I want to mention here is the difference between earth-level alchemists and human-level alchemists.

When a human-level alchemist reaches the realm of spirit breaking, he breaks through the spirit beads, and his spiritual body exists within the sea of ​​consciousness. However, at this time, the spiritual body has no active consciousness, and it cannot provide any special abilities.

And the earth-level alchemist is the one who opens the spiritual body.

For example, some people have the divine eye function if they open the divine eye of their spiritual body.

However, there are very few such people!

Among a hundred alchemists who have broken through to the earth level, not even one may have his divine eye opened.
