After Qin Xin entered the Pill Tower of Dading City.
Many alchemists recognized Qin Xin, and their eyes were filled with gratitude.
If it weren't for the pills given by Qin Xin, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape the control of the Soul Control Pill at all. If this continued, they would probably perish in the palace.
Of course, there was also a sense of sadness in the atmosphere of the Pill Tower. Many alchemists had already been used as furnaces by Ding Tian and had become skeletons in the underground palace.
After gesturing to the alchemists, Qin Xin went directly into the inner tower.
At this moment, Jin Yuanbao and the others were pacing back and forth, all worried about Qin Xin's safety.
Only after seeing Qin Xin return safely did they feel relieved.
"Boss, where are we going next?"
Jin Yuanbao was also somewhat curious when he saw Qin Xin tell everyone to prepare and then leave Dading City.
Qin Xin made no attempt to hide anything and said directly, "Let's go to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion first."
"Qin Xin, you wouldn't be going to see your lover, would you?"
Upon hearing that Qin Xin was going to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, Lin Langtian's eyes darted around as if he could see right through him.
Qin Xin smiled, shook his head, and said nothing.
However, after Lin Langtian said these words, no one noticed the expressions on Shui Qingxi and Xia Yue's faces. They seemed to be somewhat happy, but also somewhat disappointed.
Xia Yue naturally knew about Luo Lingyan. She had a deep impression of this woman during her previous trip to Luo Shen Palace. When she learned that Qin Xin was going to Baihua Pavilion, she guessed that Qin Xin was looking for her.
Now I'm just a little more certain in my heart; a woman's sixth sense is still very powerful.
After adjusting their condition, the group of five did not linger in Dading City any longer.
Now that such a thing has happened in the palace, and the entire city of Dading is in chaos, there is no need for them to get involved.
However, before leaving, Qin Xin ran into an acquaintance, Jiang Xinghai.
Previously, when they were at the Eastern Wilderness Academy, Qin Xin got along quite well with Jiang Xinghai, and he also knew Jin Yuanbao and Xia Yue.
"Qin Xin, it's been many years. Your strength has become so formidable."
Although Jiang Xinghai has now become the patriarch of the Jiang clan in Dading City, his temperament remains the same as before, but his eyes now hold a greater sense of determination and responsibility.
"Now that Dading City is in such turmoil, aren't you going to lead the Jiang Clan to seize some of the royal family's possessions?"
Qin Xin was also a little curious when he saw Jiang Xinghai's leisurely appearance.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xinghai waved his hand lightly, "What good would it do to seize it? My Jiang clan is not strong to begin with. It would be good enough if we could just hold onto our current small territory."
Jiang Xinghai saw things very clearly; otherwise, so many alchemists in Dading City would have been tricked into the royal palace, yet none of the Jiang clan members had been persecuted. This might also be related to his clear-sightedness.
Now that the Ding Dynasty has fallen, its vast territory and numerous towns will likely attract the covetous eyes of the Great Xia Dynasty and the Yan Dynasty.
If a small family were to forcibly seize a territory, they would likely face the risk of extermination. Therefore, Jiang Xinghai's idea of holding on to his territory can be considered a great wisdom.
"What, aren't you going to visit the Zhan tribe? When I returned to Dading City, I heard that you became a son-in-law in the Zhan tribe."
Seeing that Qin Xin and the others were about to leave, Jiang Xinghai suddenly asked a question.
This casual question seemed to open the door to wisdom for Jin Yuanbao.
"No wonder the boss came to Dading City. It turns out he secretly became a live-in son-in-law without our knowledge."
"Sigh! Boss, I can understand the pain of being a live-in son-in-law, but you can't keep it from us."
Jin Yuanbao's heartfelt words also drew the attention of Shui Qingxi and Xia Yue, who seemed to be waiting for Qin Xin's reply.
Under the disdainful gazes of these people, Qin Xin felt extremely uncomfortable.
He gave Jin Yuanbao a hard flick on the forehead, and the latter immediately covered his head, looking helpless. "I'm a father now, can't you give me some face, boss?"
Qin Xin glanced at Jin Yuanbao and rolled his eyes at him. This guy was always causing trouble, and the only solution was to beat him up.
"Don't look at me like that."
"It is true that I was the son-in-law of the Zhan clan, but I came to this Dading City in distress at the time. I heard about the plight of the Zhan clan and was entrusted by the Zhan sisters, which is why I did this."
Qin Xin gave a brief explanation, but he was still somewhat displeased with the Zhan clan for their past betrayal.
"Hmph! Boss, why don't we go together and wipe out that Zhan clan? They've gone too far in treating you like this."
Upon hearing Qin Xin's account of what happened in Dading City, Jin Yuanbao became indignant and threatened to tear down the entire Zhan clan.
"Forget it, it's been a long time since then."
"After all, Zhan Qingqi is from the same sect as the four of us, so let's leave this matter here."
After Qin Xin finished speaking softly, the others all nodded.
Not knowing when they would meet again after this departure, Qin Xin was not stingy. Although there were many families specializing in pills in Dading City and they were not short of pills, he still left some Five Treasures Returning to Origin Pills for Jiang Xinghai and asked him to give a portion to the Zhan sisters as well.
Jiang Xinghai understood Qin Xin's meaning. After accepting the pills, he saw the group off from Dading City.
After Qin Xin's figure disappeared from Dading City, three figures appeared at the city gate.
"Qingyue, Qingqi, why don't you come out to see us off? We don't know when we'll meet again after this parting."
Jiang Xinghai didn't quite understand the two sisters' actions and asked them with some curiosity.
However, Jiang Xinghai's eyes were always fixed on Zhan Qingqi. From the perspective of a love rival, he could tell that Zhan Qingqi had feelings for Qin Xin. But what puzzled Jiang Xinghai was that Zhan Qingyue's eyes were also filled with the same emotion, only with a hint of melancholy.
"After all, the Zhan clan wronged him in the past. It's already a pleasant surprise that he's willing to accept my sister and me without holding a grudge." Zhan Qingqi said calmly, holding the Five Treasures Returning to Origin Pill that Qin Xin had Jiang Xinghai give her. Her expression was not very revealing.
Standing beside her, Zhan Qingyue patted her sister's shoulder and said slowly, "I hope his trip goes smoothly."
"Hearing that Grandpa Zhan has now stepped down from his position as head of the family and begun to devote himself to cultivation, the future of the Zhan clan will be managed by you."
"If you need anything, please let me know, and our Jiang clan will do our utmost."
Jiang Xinghai, seeing the two seemingly lost in thought, slowly spoke, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked at Zhan Qingqi.
However, after Zhan Qingqi sorted out her thoughts, her eyes seemed to have undergone a transformation, and Zhan Qingyue, who was standing next to her, felt a surge of joy as she watched her sister's change.
Let's go!
After that brief exchange, the three of them returned to their respective families.
Now that the power structure of the Ding Dynasty is changing, they also need to make long-term plans for the future of their family.
