Xu Wanning's lips curled up slightly, forming a helpless smile.
He pondered to himself, how could someone as wary as Qin Feng so easily believe what he said?
After a moment of silence, his deep, pool-like eyes slowly swept across the crowd, as if trying to take in every expression on each person's face.
Immediately afterwards, his lips moved slightly, and a faint, almost imperceptible sound entered Qin Feng's ears through a special method.
“I can see your true appearances, and I also know that you killed Leader Xu of the Thief Alliance!”
When this message quietly reached Qin Feng's ears, his brows furrowed involuntarily, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
He truly hadn't expected that Xu Wanning would possess such keen insight, able to see through the carefully crafted disguise he and Su Liyue had created.
Not only that, the other party even knew everything about their killing of Alliance Leader Xu!
However, upon further reflection, Qin Feng realized that this matter was not entirely unexpected.
After all, the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce is renowned and has boundless influence, with its tentacles reaching every corner of the myriad realms.
With its formidable strength and extensive intelligence network, uncovering these matters would be a piece of cake.
Moreover, the fierce battle he fought with Su Liyue against Alliance Leader Xu that day was earth-shattering, and the huge commotion it caused was hard to hide from people. Presumably, there must have been many people watching the battle from the shadows.
At the same time, Qin Feng quickly discerned the true intention behind Xu Wanning's actions—he knew of Xu Wanning's exceptional strength and thus attempted to befriend or win him over.
However, despite the formidable power of the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce, Qin Feng had no intention of befriending or currying favor with them.
Immediately, Qin Feng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he said slowly, "I understand your thoughts, but I'm sorry, I don't like owing favors to others."
Upon hearing this, Xu Wanning frowned slightly, a sincere expression on his face, and said softly, "Perhaps you have misunderstood my intentions. I sincerely only wish to forge a deep friendship with you, and I have absolutely no other ill intentions!"
Qin Feng looked calmly at Xu Wanning, unmoved, and then replied, "As the saying goes, the debt of gratitude is the hardest to repay, especially for someone like you. So, I appreciate your kindness."
At this moment, everyone in the hall was drawn to the conversation between the two.
When they heard Xu Wanning say those words, they were all dumbfounded and shocked. Some even doubted whether they had misheard or misread what was happening before their eyes.
It should be noted that Xu Wanning is not only the head of the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce in the True Spirit Continent, wielding great power, but his strength has also reached the terrifying half-step Heavenly Dao Realm.
Such a high-ranking and powerful person would actually lower himself to befriend a nobody who was merely at the early stage of the Primordial Saint Emperor realm.
In the end, Qin Feng rejected him!
They were all very curious about what exactly Xu Wanning saw in Qin Feng, given how ungrateful he was.
This is utterly unbelievable, making one feel as if they are in a dream, unable to believe that it is actually happening.
Xu Wanning frowned, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty. He was unwilling to easily give up the opportunity to make Qin Feng owe him a favor.
After hesitating for a moment, he slowly raised his head, stared at Qin Feng, and said in an extremely solemn and profound tone, "Fellow Daoist, do you know that without my assistance and support, with your current strength, you would absolutely not be able to leave this Thief City smoothly!"
Just as Qin Feng was about to speak, a clear and loud female voice suddenly rang out.
"Can't you stop being so stubborn?"
It turned out that Su Liyue couldn't help but interrupt. She slightly furrowed her slender, willow-leaf-like eyebrows, and her expression became unusually serious.
"This is the headquarters of the Heaven Stealing Alliance. Without Fellow Daoist Xu's help, it would be a pipe dream to escape unscathed from this Heaven Stealing City!"
After hearing Su Liyue's words, Qin Feng did not show the slightest panic or fear.
Instead, he merely glanced at Xu Wanning and Su Liyue, then pursed his lips dismissively, seemingly unimpressed by their words.
Then, he slowly swept his gaze over everyone present, a faint smile appearing on his face, and calmly said, "Fellow Daoists, I am a Grandmaster of Alchemy!"
"My alchemy skills are extremely high, and I can easily refine all kinds of precious and rare elixirs."
"Not only that, the elixirs I refine are all at least of superior quality!"
Although Qin Feng's voice wasn't loud, it seemed to possess some kind of magical power, reaching the ears of everyone present with perfect clarity.
"Wh...what? You're actually a Grandmaster of Alchemy? How is that possible?"
Suddenly, a shout filled with shock and disbelief resounded throughout the venue, like a thunderclap exploding in the crowd.
Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to a man pointing at Qin Feng with a look of astonishment on his face, his mouth agape enough to fit an egg.
"Could it be that the top-grade elixir you just took out was refined by you?"
Almost at the same time that exclamation fell, another person couldn't wait to ask, their voice trembling slightly with excitement.
In an instant, everyone present focused their attention on Qin Feng, their eyes gleaming with an intense, burning light, like a pack of hungry wolves eyeing their prey.
If everything Qin Feng said was true, then befriending a master alchemist who could easily refine top-grade elixirs would undoubtedly be a tremendous good thing for anyone.
It is important to know that cultivators not only need to have outstanding talent for cultivation, but also cannot do without a variety of precious resources as support.
Among the many resources, elixirs are the most crucial and important.
A high-quality elixir can often help cultivators break through bottlenecks, improve their strength, and accelerate their cultivation speed.
Therefore, if one can establish a good relationship with this mysterious alchemy master, one will undoubtedly gain great convenience and advantages in obtaining elixirs in the future, which will be of great help to one's cultivation path.
In an instant, everyone's gaze toward Qin Feng became even more fervent, all hoping that Qin Feng could prove his alchemy skills to them.
