“HAHA, it must be this kid’s first time to the Royal City!”

“Hehe, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. He wants to head up to the second floor when he is only at the fifth-layer Martial Sacred Realm?”

The people in the silent restaurant suddenly burst out laughing and mocked with their eyes filled with disdain.

They were not looking down on him because of his cultivation, as the fifth-layer Martial Sacred Realm was considered relatively impressive in the Royal City.

However, they only felt that this Qin Nan was being too ignorant.

As everyone knew, the Southern Continent had three great factions: the current royal family in power, the Chen Clan, and the Bai Clan.

The Chen Clan’s Patriarch was the National General in charge of three hundred thousand Fiery Soldiers, with many talented disciples rising from his clan too. Meanwhile, the Bai Clan’s Patriarch was the Prime Minister of the current dynasty, with authority second only to the current emperor. Furthermore, her daughter was also the queen.

The Aromatic Inn was constructed by the Bai Clan’s third mistress.

The stairs to the second floor of the Aromatic Inn were protected by a powerful formation. Those without an eighth-layer Martial Sacred Realm cultivation would surely die if they tried to pass it.

As such, those who were able to pass through it would be grandly received by the Bai Clan.

“Mister, I’m sorry. I’m afraid you can’t head to the second floor for the sake of your safety.” The waiter collected his thoughts and explained, without looking down on Qin Nan.

“So you’re implying that I can head up if my cultivation is strong enough?” Qin Nan asked.

“Of course.” The waiter said patiently, “Our third mistress has already told us to receive those who are able to enter the second floor warmly, and they will even be treated as special guests of our Bai Clan. However, it’s too much of a challenge for you, so you should probably give up…”

“I’ll try.”

Before the waiter could finish, Qin Nan let out a smile and proceeded to the entry swiftly.

Although his current cultivation was only at the fifth-layer Martial Sacred Realm, he could easily peek through the formation with the power of his left eye of the Divine God of Battle.

The waiter wore a dumbfounded look.

The cultivators on the first floor were shocked too.

What was wrong with this kid, still daring to head to the second floor after knowing the danger?

Was he really tired of living?

However, a shocking sight took place.

Each step that Qin Nan took would result in a soft explosion, as the powerful formation protecting the stairs was shattered.

“This…”

The cultivators and the waiters were astounded, unable to believe what they were witnessing.

Are you kidding!

He was only a fifth-layer Martial Sacred!

The formation that could kill a seventh-layer Martial Sacred had no effect on him?

Within a few breaths, the crowd saw Qin Nan’s figure entering the second floor and disappearing from their sight.

“It’s…it’s completely shattered!” A relatively old cultivator said with a trembling voice.

He had seen many eighth-layer Martial Sacred Realm experts entering the second floor before, but each of them had relied on some powerful Martial Arts or other methods to overcome the formation, but the young man had just done it as if he were only taking a stroll in the park, and had even destroyed the formation as he made his way up!

Even a ninth-layer Martial Sacred couldn’t possibly do that!

Gasp!

The crowd reacted and inhaled deeply, their eyes filled with great respect. They finally realized how extraordinary the young man was.

The waiter soon recovered from the shock and immediately took out a badge to send a message.

…Meanwhile, on the second floor of the Aromatic Inn…

There was nothing much on the second floor, only a room that was around forty-zhang that was built with some valuable ancient woods, resulting in a pleasant scent. There were also precious wines being displayed, with fascinating drawings on the wall. At the center of the room was a futon made of golden silk.

It turned out that the room on the second floor was specifically used to cultivate in seclusion.

Qin Nan approached the futon and sat with his legs crossed, before unleashing his Divine Sense.

“Mm? The saber intent that everything in this Aromatic Inn possesses is indeed different, which seems to be related to a complete saber art.”

Qin Nan pondered.

Why was the saber intent in this Aromatic Inn different than the ones he had found on the streets?

Could it be…

The saber intent at special places like this would be different?

Having this thought, Qin Nan rose from the ground. Since he had finish comprehending the saber intent there, it was time for him to take a look at other places, like the Chen Clan, Bai Clan, the palace, etc. to prove his speculations.

However, as Qin Nan stepped out from the room…

Thump thump thump!

A series of footsteps could be heard coming from outside the Aromatic Inn in an orderly fashion, like the marching of a troop.

BANG!

The door of the Aromatic Inn was kicked open.

The cultivators were astounded, as they did not expect someone would dare to trouble the Aromatic Inn in the Royal City.

Following this, several bulky men rushed into the place with stern expressions over their faces, thirteen of them in total, each possessing a cultivation of the seventh-layer Martial Sacred Realm!

A while later, a young man wearing a long robe and a dark expression on his face entered, followed by a muscular man with thick brows.

The crowd was stunned.

Wasn’t this the second son of the Chen Clan, Chen Rong?

Why was he here with his subordinates?

Chen Rong scanned the crowd and snapped after he did not discover Qin Nan’s presence, “Search the place! I don’t care where he’s hiding, bring him to me!”

“Alright!”

The thirteen bulky men answered before carrying out the order.

The waiter immediately went up to Chen Rong and said, “Mister Chen, what’s the problem? This is the Aromatic Inn, and our rule is that no violence is allowed——”

PA!

Chen Rong showed no mercy and gave the waiter a slap across his face while glaring at him, “Rules? Do you think I, Chen Rong, am scared of your clan’s third mistress? Enough with the bullshit, or I wouldn’t mind crippling you!”

The waiter was left in shock, as he never thought Chen Rong would be so disrespectful.

“As expected of the second son of the Chen Clan, how imperious.” At that instant, Qin Nan’s voice echoed in the building.

This Chen Rong dared to bring his people to avenge himself after he was willing to spare his life the first time.

“Mm? It’s you? How are you on the second floor?”

Chen Rong and the man standing beside him were startled seeing Qin Nan.

They clearly knew the rules of the Aromatic Inn. Only those with a cultivation of at least the eighth-layer Martial Sacred Realm were able to enter the second floor. How did he get up there?

“Go, bring him down here!”

Chen Rong reacted and said with a hollow laugh.

He could not care less how Qin Nan was able to make his way up to the second floor, neither did he care what his relationship was with his sister. He only knew that after returning to his clan, his beloved Four-Horned Golden-Eyed Tiger completely lost its usual appearance, which hid in the corner and trembled in fear.

This made Chen Rong incredibly furious. He had spent many years in the Royal City, and no one would dare to bully him like that. As such, he immediately summoned thirteen elite Fiery Soldiers to detain Qin Nan and bring him back to the Chen Clan so that he could torture him!
