Chapter 174: Killing Miao Qinghe
Jiang Lan looked at Miao Qinghe in silence.
He understood the other party’s point.
His existence had affected the Heavenly Human Race.
Even if he did not obtain the Empyrean Scripture and even if he had no intention of cultivating it.
He had the qualifications to obtain it.
That was equivalent to threatening the Heavenly Human Race.
The Empyrean Scripture belonged to the Heavenly Human Race.
What would happen if an outsider obtained it?
The answer was impossible to predict, but the Heavenly Human Race’s position would definitely be threatened.
This was not a question of whether he wanted to or not, but whether he could.
As long as he could, it was useless no matter how he thought about it.
Only by not existing could the Heavenly Human Race sleep peacefully.
It was just like a stranger getting the keys to one’s house. One couldn’t expect the other party to not want to come.
Even if the other party didn’t want to come, he still had the key.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, one would either take back the key or change the lock.
And if the key couldn’t be taken back and the lock couldn’t be replaced. Then…
It was like someone having their pa.s.sword known but he could not change his pa.s.sword lock.
Could he take out the pa.s.sword from the other party’s mind?
The answer was no.
Thus, the only other option was to make the other party disappear.
Now that Jiang Lan knew the pa.s.sword, the Heavenly Human Race would definitely want his life.
If Jiang Lan wanted to end this matter, he couldn’t expect the other party to suddenly think things through.
He could only…
Send them on their way.
“How strong is the Heavenly Human Race?” Jiang Lan calmly asked.
As a Human Immortal, he did not know if he had the strength to go against the entire race.
It was highly unlikely for him to do so.
“As Human Immortals, neither you nor I can understand the strength of the entire race,” Miao Qinghe said.
“How about comparing it to Kunlun?” Jiang Lan asked again.
Miao Qinghe looked at Jiang Lan and sneered in a low voice.
“Why don’t you ask your master? What can you obtain from a Human Immortal like me? ”
Jiang Lan didn’t feel anything when he heard Miao Qinghe’s words. He only opened his mouth once more.
“After you die, will the Heavenly Human Race continue to send people to hunt me down?”
“There’s no way they’re going to give up. You went up the stairs, and that was the biggest mistake you made.”
“Since this matter was so important, why did you guys let me go?”
“Because there has never been an outsider who could trigger the Stairway to Heavens, not to mention ascending to its peak. An outsider going up the Stairway to Heavens had even created a storm at our place.” After a pause, Miao Qinghe immediately asked.
“Did you kill Miao Xiu?”
“Go ask him yourself.” Jiang Lan spoke softly as he walked towards Miao Qinghe.
Seeing Jiang Lan approach, Miao Qinghe frowned.
“Your cultivation level shouldn’t be in the perfected Human Immortal Realm. It’s very difficult for you to kill me. Once my Dharma treasure is activated, there will be seniors in the race who will take a look at what’s happening here. Aren’t you going to escape first?”
“I will run, but…” Jiang Lan walked up to Miao Qinghe and calmly said.
“I’ll send you to reunite with the others first. You’ll be lonely if you’re late.”
“The Immortal Binding Rope is not enough to kill me.” Miao Qinghe immediately said.
He was a little worried. The other party always gave him a feeling of fear.
It was as if a great calamity was approaching him.
“It’s true that the Immortal Binding Rope can’t kill you, but…” Jiang Lan reached out his hand to grab the opponent’s defensive Dharma treasure. The Power Of Nine Tribulations filled his hand.
At this moment, a calamity shadow appeared and a destructive aura appeared from Jiang Lan’s hands.
At this moment, the hand representing the great calamity grabbed onto Miao Qinghe’s defensive Dharma treasure.
“However, I never thought of using the Immortal-binding Rope to kill you.”
The Power Of Nine Tribulations belonging to Jiang Lan began to erupt. Miao Qinghe felt as if he was in a great calamity.
It was as though all his defenses were unable to withstand the descent of the calamity.
Bang!
After some time, he felt a crack appearing in his defense.
The sound of rus.h.i.+ng power followed.
It was as if there was a terrifying existence at the end of the horizon that was treading on air, bringing disaster to the world.
Miao Qinghe was terrified.
“How did this happen?”
In the next moment, Jiang Lan’s large hand grabbed towards him. Miao Qinghe wanted to escape, but he couldn’t move.
The other party was much stronger than him.
“I checked. You shouldn’t be this strong. This doesn’t make sense. ”
“Have you heard of the Sage Chapter?”
Jiang Lan’s hand reached out towards Miao Qinghe’s head.
Boom!
Everything returned to normal.
“Go to the netherworld. You will have companions to talk with.”
Jiang Lan looked at the blood mist and muttered to himself.
The Heavenly Human Race was a troublesome existence. As long as he was strong enough, theoretically speaking, they wouldn’t dare act rashly.
However, he was not strong enough. At least, not yet.
Putting aside his cultivation, even the current him wasn’t a match for the other party.
But would they send someone stronger?
This place was close to Kunlun after all. If they were to send someone immensely strong, it would have a different meaning. It might not be long before the person’s head would be separated from his body.
After that, Jiang Lan didn’t pay any more attention to this and directly vanished on the spot.
Now that these people died, the Heavenly Human Race should start paying more attention to him.
They might also spend more effort investigating and tracing what had happened. It was hard to say if he would be able to still hide what had happened with just his One Leaf Vision.
With the newfound superior divine power, he felt that his One Leaf Vision was no longer sufficient.
However, as a Human Immortal, if someone were to use divinity skills on him, he would be able to feel it.
There should be no problems at the moment.
Miao Qinghe had said that a Senior from his race would start investigating and divining what had happened the moment he activated his Dharma treasure. Even though Jiang Lan didn’t believe it, he still decided to leave first.
Of course, he still did his best to erase all the evidence present.
After Jiang Lan left, all the array formations disappeared as if they had never been set up.
The array that concealed the secrets from the heavens had also disappeared.
The people of the Heavenly Human Race would come specially looking for clues once they found out that the party’s mission had failed. This meant that the array formations that hid the occurrence here from the heavens would not be that effective.
Jiang Lan went to a faraway place.
The place he had arrived in was the Flat Sky City, which was half a month’s journey away from Kunlun.
This was a very prosperous city with powerful people.
However, it made no difference to Jiang Lan.
Was there a need to care about such things when shopping?
The streets were extremely large and bustling.
The ground he was stepping on was made of st.u.r.dy tiles.
Qingcheng Town, on the other hand, was built with stones. The two were simply incomparable.
Although there were many people, it was not crowded on the streets.
“There are many cultivators here.”
On the way, Jiang Lan felt that many people here were not ordinary people.
Before long, he saw someone buying candied fruits.
After standing for a while, he walked over.
He decided to just buy this.
“Boss, get me… two skewers.”
“Alright, one skewer costs three copper coins, two skewers costs five copper coins,” said the middle-aged boss.
As he spoke, he pa.s.sed two skewers of candied fruits to Jiang Lan.
Looking at the candied fruits, Jiang Lan didn’t immediately respond.
“Please wait for a moment.”
The middle-aged boss nodded.
He didn’t feel that this was a person who couldn’t afford it. Judging from his clothes, he wasn’t an ordinary person.
Jiang Lan turned to look at the street, planning to catch someone to exchange for some money.
He had no money.
The other party might be willing to accept spirit stones, but human hearts were treacherous.
If an ordinary person took a spirit stone, they would probably be dead before they reached home.
With a single glance, Jiang Lan found a couple.
He had seen them before.
“This time, when I go back to see Father, I want to buy two medicinal pills that can increase his lifespan. I’ll definitely be able to buy it this time,” said Zhou Shu to the female cultivator, Lu Qian.
“Senior Brother, you should have no problem breaking through to the Golden Core Realm,” Lu Qian said with a smile.
To reach the Golden Core Realm at such a young age was a form of reputation itself.
Very few people were willing to offend someone with such potential.
However, they, who were originally very happy, suddenly stopped. Someone had blocked their way.
