“Young… Young Master Su, what brings you here?”

The shopkeeper’s voice started to tremble when he saw who had arrived in the shop.

Su Ying was Su Ling’s older brother. He was only 17 years old and a First Stage Elementalist. That didn’t make him a genius, but he had an identity that garnered more attention – Third Stage Alchemist.

Alchemists formed one of the most respected classes in the Tianyuan Continent, and they were even more highly regarded than Elementalists.

A Third Stage Elementalist might not have anyone else supporting him, but a Third Stage Alchemist would have countless Third Stage Elementalist Mentors behind him. He might even have Fifth or Sixth Stage Elementalist Mentors.

A 17-year-old Third Stage Alchemist was considered a genius in all of the Beian Nation. Even the emperor had to be kind to him.

On top of that, Su Ying was backed by an elder from the Dan Sect, a First Grade Alchemy Grandmaster, Dan Wuji.

This was another reason why Su Ling dared to challenge Yun Qingyan to a fight even though she knew that Grand Master Yun was extremely protective of his granddaughter. Even if Grand Master Yun were the top fighter in all of the Beian Nation, he would think twice before offending an Alchemy Grandmaster.

“I can’t be here?” Su Ying looked nastily at the shopkeeper.

Yun Qingyan followed the sound of the voice to find a young man wearing black. He didn’t look too bad and did look a lot like Su Ling. The gloominess in his eyes destroyed his handsome face.

“Of course not, of course not. It is our honor for Young Master Su to come to our lowly shop.”

The shopkeeper bowed low and had smiles plastered all over his face. His attitude towards Su Ying was completely different from how he treated Yun Qingyan earlier.

It was hard to blame him. After all, even though both the Su family and the Yun family were influential families in the capital, Su Ying was a genius Alchemist and was backed by an unparalleled master with a bright future ahead of him, while Yun Qingyan was just a useless bum. If Marquis Yun had to retire from his position, she wouldn’t last long. So of course, she didn’t deserve the same treatment as the young master of the Su family did.
