Initially, when the two met in the goat's gorge, Qin Ning's every attitude and action exuded absolute confidence.
Plus, the awakening of the Imperial Body.
Even her father couldn't predict the Imperial Body, and no one in the entire Bei Ming Empire knew about it, but Qin Ning merely glanced at it and confirmed it, then brought her to the Yun Ling Platform to examine her spiritual body.
Then there was the Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystal, which countless people frantically sought.
In Qin Ning's eyes, it seemed… it was just a piece of candy for children.
That's right, it was exactly like that!
Just like a piece of rock candy.
Qin Ning fundamentally didn't care about those Heavenly Fire Spirit Crystals.
Adding to this reunion, every word and action of Qin Ning was incredibly confident!
This was not a disguise at all.
Even after two meetings, Qin Ning's image in her heart had become unfathomable.
Therefore, she only needed to obey Qin Ning's every word!
Sheng Xin Rui also offered an apologetic smile to Ming Yu at this moment, clasped his hands, and hurriedly followed.
"Brother Qin Ning, that sword costs ten million gold, what a pity…"
Ling Xiao Fei clicked her tongue, "But seeing that idiot Wang Zhen Yu's foolish expression makes me feel much less angry!"
"Then are you happy?" Qin Ning smiled.
"Yes, I am!" Ling Xiao Fei giggled, utterly adorable.
"Then that's good!"
Qin Ning smiled lightly, "And gold or whatever is useless, as long as Xiao Fei is happy!"
"Brother Qin Ning is so good!"
Hearing their conversation, Sheng Xin Rui felt his face stiffen.
Qin Ning could have opened the sword after betting with Wang Zhen Yu, but he didn't.
Instead, he put it up for auction.
Qin Ning didn't care about money; otherwise, he wouldn't have sold it for two million.
He deliberately put it up for auction in front of everyone just to make Wang Zhen Yu completely lose face.
After all, it was all because of a single sentence from Ling Xiao Fei.
"Brother Qin Ning, they are so hateful, Xiao Fei hates them!"
Thinking of this sentence, Sheng Xin Rui suddenly realized that Ling Xiao Fei's position in Qin Ning's heart seemed… higher than he had anticipated!
"Have the medicinal ingredients I need been prepared?" Qin Ning looked at Ye Yuan Yuan and asked.
"They have been properly prepared, when will Young Master have time?"
"After this matter is done!"
Qin Ning turned to Sheng Xin Rui and said, "Take me to see your father!"
"Yes!"
The group left, and at this moment, Commander Du Jie's face had turned ashen.
"Second Prince, this brat doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Who does he think he is?"
"It's fine!"
Ming Yu waved his hand and said, "Since I intend to seek out worthy talents, I don't mind humbling myself. A genius is extremely valuable to me, not to mention, he is also a Spirit Array Master!"
Hearing this, Du Jie was still unhappy, but since his master had spoken, what else was there to argue about?
"You investigate Qin Ning's background!"
"Yes!"
At the same time, Wang Zhen Yu also turned pale and left in a rage.
Today, Qin Ning had deliberately humiliated him.
Otherwise, Qin Ning only needed to open the array, why bother with an auction?
This was clearly Qin Ning intentionally teaching him a lesson.
As the Young Master of the Wang family, to be taught a lesson by a mere brat like this, he had truly lost all face!
"Investigate, investigate for me what background this brat has! This Young Master will never swallow this insult!"
"Understood!"
At this moment, Qin Ning had no idea that he had been targeted.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
He followed Sheng Xin Rui into the seventh floor of the Sheng Dan Pavilion.
The seventh floor was considered the core of the Sacred Pill Pavilion; no one was allowed in except for important members.
"Father!"
They pushed open the door and entered. Seeing Sheng Dengfeng, Sheng Xinyue immediately became more respectful.
Although he was a prodigy in alchemy, Sheng Dengfeng had nine children, and he was the youngest. In front of Sheng Dengfeng, he still had to be very careful.
"Is this the Young Master Qin you spoke of?"
Sheng Dengfeng did not show disdain for Qin Ning's youth, but he was incredibly surprised in his heart.
The genius whom his son revered so much was unexpectedly so young.
But could this young man really do it?
"Brother Qin's alchemy is incredibly powerful, Father. This time, Brother Qin has agreed to help you improve your alchemy!"
Improve alchemy?
Hearing this, Sheng Dengfeng was stunned.
He was competing with Jiu Shi this very afternoon. Was just one morning enough to help?
What a joke!
"Ninth Brother, are you bringing a charlatan to joke with Father?"
At this moment, Sheng Yuncai, who was beside them, couldn't help but burst out laughing, "This young man looks to be about your age, doesn't he? Can he really help Father improve his alchemy? Moreover, Jiu Shi and his group will arrive this afternoon. Is half a day enough? What a joke!"
Sheng Xinyue, hearing this, ignored Sheng Yuncai and just looked at his father, saying, "Father!"
"Alright, then what should I do?"
Sheng Dengfeng finally nodded.
He originally didn't believe that Qin Ning's insights into alchemy could surpass his own!
After all, a fourth-grade spirit alchemist was very rare in the Beiming Empire!
How much could a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth know about alchemy?
But the competition was starting this afternoon, so at this point, he could only make the best of a bad situation.
"Young Master Qin, what should I do?" Sheng Dengfeng asked.
"It's simple. You just need to refine the medicinal pill you are most proficient in and show it to me once, that's all!"
Qin Ning said indifferently.
"Show it once?"
Sheng Yuncai interrupted again.
"My father is a spirit alchemist, with superb alchemy skills. Are you, a mere brat, trying to trick my ninth brother, wanting to secretly learn my father's alchemy?"
"Or were you sent as a traitor, wanting to probe my father's abilities?"
"Fourth Brother, if you say a few less words, no one will call you mute!" Sheng Xinyue frowned.
Hearing this, Sheng Yuncai was also extremely stunned.
Sheng Xinyue dared to talk back to him?
