Chapter 1741 - The Supremes Are Here
Qin Nan found Immortal Emperor Duling quite amusing. The man immediately distorted the facts and even falsely accused him as soon as he arrived.
Did this Immortal Emperor Duling really think he could behave recklessly just because he was a Peerless Ruler? That he could just pick on him and bully him?
How ridiculous…
“What…what did you just say?”
Immortal Emperor Duling’s eyes flickered with a hint of anger. His voice exploded like thunder in the sky, “This is madness, madness! Not only did you not admit your wrongdoings, you even dare to act so disrespectfully! Let them go at once, and I’ll consider sparing your life!”
Everyone in the Sky Taihuang Sect had always treated him with utter respect since he was Supreme Chang Xiao’s Junior Brother, and had a great chance of becoming a Nine Heavens Supreme!
However, this Qin Nan who was insignificant in his eyes dared to provoke him!
He would have attacked Qin Nan immediately and leave him with serious injuries if he wasn’t standing too close to You Hong and the others. It was unusual that Qin Nan was able to beat his son and the others when his Dao Foundation had been destroyed.
“Things are getting serious!”
The thought crossed the minds of the crowd.
You Hong and his crew were trembling in fear. They never thought Qin Nan was unwilling to spare them even when Immortal Emperor Duling had arrived in person.
“Spare his life? Immortal Emperor Duling, how bold of you to even say that!?”
A cold voice was heard coming from the distance. A figure slowly appeared from the rift with an overwhelming presence. It was none other than Envoy Feng Hua.
“Envoy Feng Hua is here?”
The cultivators were shocked.
“Envoy Feng Hua?”
Immortal Emperor Duling was stunned. He soon wore a dark expression and said, “What do you mean by this? Are you seriously trying to side with Qin Nan and watch him kill my son?”
Most Immortal Emperors in the Sky Taihuang Sect were afraid of Envoy Feng Hua, but Immortal Emperor Duling was not afraid of the man, especially when his son’s life was at stake.
Envoy Feng Hua glanced at Immortal Emperor Duling briefly before looking at Qin Nan with a smile, “Kid, you really gave me a huge surprise! That being said, can you please let them go?”
Even though it was reasonable for Qin Nan to kill them, and taking his talents and background into account, nothing would even happen to him even if he did kill them.
However, it would serve as a great loss to the Sky Taihuang Sect. It would be troublesome if Immortal Emperor Duling lost his mind from it.
Qin Nan frowned and said, “Envoy Feng Hua, they…”
Envoy Feng Hua shook his head with a wry smile before Qin Nan could finish the sentence. He said, “You are just like her. Just consider it as doing me favor, how’s that?”
Qin Nan fell silent.
He was the kind of person who could be persuaded by reason but not cowed by force. Besides, Envoy Feng Hua did help him during the Battle of the Strongest Immortal.
Immortal Emperor Duling was startled once again.
Why was Envoy Feng Hua being so respectful toward Qin Nan?
“Fine, if Envoy Feng Hua says so, I will spare their lives.”
Qin Nan added after a few moments, “However, since they were trying to kill me, they will have to pay for it still!”
Following the words, Qin Nan’s Heaven-Shattering Saber fired three strong saber intents slas.h.i.+ng at You Hong and his friends.
The saber intents pierced through their chests. Their blood poured out from the wound as the terrifying saber intents spread throughout their limbs and bones and severed their meridians.
An overwhelming pain devoured their senses. They immediately cried out in agony.
“You Hong!”
Immortal Emperor Duling was stunned. He quickly went forward and fed You Hong a pill before inspecting his condition with his Divine Sense.
His chest was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with anger when he saw the injuries of his son.
“Qin Nan, you dare hurt my son. You will pay for it!”
Immortal Emperor Duling unleashed his cultivation following the furious snap. His aura of a Peerless Ruler surged across the place.
“Stop it!”
Envoy Feng Hua was startled. He quickly stood in front of Qin Nan.
“Feng Hua, he has dealt serious damage to my son, yet you are still protecting him? I’m telling you, no one can save him today, not even if the Patriarch is here…”
Immortal Emperor Duling’s aura continued to rise, stirring great storms across the rift.
As a Peerless Ruler, he was not stupid enough to act on impulse. However, since Qin Nan had injured his son, he had found an excuse to accidentally kill Qin Nan. Even his Senior Brother would only give him a slight punishment in the end.
“Father…”
You Hong yelled amid the pain he was suffering.
His father had no idea that Qin Nan had already reforged his Dao Foundation. His strength and cultivation were equivalent to the Six Great Core Disciples of the Sky Taihuang Sect.
On top of it, Qin Nan’s talents were even higher than the six core disciples.
Immortal Emperor Duling had no chance of justifying himself if he killed Qin Nan. Besides, what Qin Nan did was reasonable too.
However, it was already too late when he tried to intervene.
The sky within a few hundred thousand li was filled with brilliant light as two formidable auras showed up. The soul of every cultivator shuddered.
“Duling, what do you think you are doing?”
A furious voice uttered. The ground began to shake vigorously.
Supreme Huanglei and Supreme Chang Xiao both walked out from the rift with a displeased look, especially the latter with a dark expression.
“Both…both Nine Heavens Supremes are here?”
The crowd was greatly astounded.
Normally, it was extremely rare to even see a Nine Heavens Supreme, especially Supreme Chang Xiao whose ident.i.ty greatly surpa.s.sed that of the other Nine Heavens Supremes.
“Senior…Senior Brother?”
Immortal Emperor Duling was stunned. He was struggling to believe his eyes.
As his Junior Brother, he knew that his Senior Brother would only show up when it was necessary.
Yet, why would he show up when it was only a mere conflict between two core disciples? He even came in person with Supreme Huanglei!
Could it be…
He had come because of Qin Nan?
He was even more confused upon having the thought. How was Qin Nan whose Dao Foundation was destroyed still worthy for his Senior Brother and Supreme Huanglei to come in person?
“You will be punished for what you’ve done later!”
Supreme Chang Xiao said coldly. Both he and Supreme Huanglei soon turned around and brought their fists together respectfully.
“We, disciples, welcome master to the Realm of Taihuang!”
The words served as a deafening thunderclap in the ears of the crowd.
