Chapter 996 - The Half-God Tomb
The one speaking was the core disciple standing beside Hua Dichen, with thick eyebrows and a bulky figure. One could vaguely feel the terrifying force in his body, which would be destructive once it was unleashed.
His name was Song Dong, ranked sixty-third on the Monarch Ranking. His true form was a mutated beast, with a bloodline equivalent to a fourth-grade Tian ranked Martial Spirit and a cultivation of the peak Undefeatable Martial Progenitor Realm.
As he spoke, the others in the hall fell silent.
Hua Dichen wore a smile, as if Qin Nan’s arrival had nothing to do with him.
“That’s right.” The seven-inch purple dragon said calmly, “We all know Qin Nan’s talent, thus it’s a good opportunity for you core disciples to support your Junior Brother. What do you think?”
“I don’t mind.”
“Chief is right.”
Hua Lie, the Peak Leader of the Battle Dragon Peak, and Hua Dichen rose from their seats and brought their fists together.
Song Dong and the others seemed unsatisfied, but they were aware of the seven-inch purple dragon’s firm attitude, thus they did not dare to comment further.
“Chief…” Qin Nan stood up and was about to speak.
The seven-inch purple dragon waved its claw and said, “I forgot to mention that a while ago, a few factions including us had discovered a Half-God Tomb in the Worriless Ocean which was about to open soon, hence I’ve summoned you back.”
He then added, “When the time comes, apart from us, the other factions will also send their disciples there. Each faction is allowed to send five representatives.”
Qin Nan immediately came to a realization hearing this.
Half-God meant the half-Martial God Realm, only a step away from the Martial God Realm that completely surpassed the strength of Martial Monarchs.
No wonder the Dragon Emperor would send the seven-inch purple dragon here to discuss it.
Qin Nan also understood why Song Dong was not too happy seeing him.
The other factions would surely send their core disciples to the Half-God Tomb. Even though Qin Nan was ranked three hundred and first on the Monarch Ranking, he was still a great distance away from reaching the standard of the core disciples.
In other words, he was not qualified enough for the level of the succession!
“Three days later, the five of you will gather at the dojo. The First Elder Hua Lie will escort you there.” The seven-inch purple dragon said before glancing at Qin Nan, “Come with me.”
With a grab, Qin Nan’s figure disappeared with the purple dragon.
“Humph!”
“The chief is favoring him too much!”
Song Dong and the other two core disciples blurted out.
In the end, they felt annoyed and jealous because the Dragon Emperor was treating Qin Nan better than he treated them.
“Hehe, why the grumbling? Qin Nan is extremely talented. As his Senior Brothers, it’s our responsibility to look after him.” Hua Dichen said with a smile, patting their shoulders before leaving with Hua Lie.
The eyes of Song Dong and the rest flickered, as they clearly interpreted the meaning behind Hua Dichen’s words.
…Meanwhile, deep inside the Dragon Emperor Clan…
The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast stretched as she smilingly said, “What a surprise, you’re close with Tang Qingshan too?”
They had been keeping an eye out for Qin Nan when he was at the Heaven-Saber Sect.
“Cough cough.”
Qin Nan uttered a cough without answering the question.
“Who would expect so many talented geniuses to appear from a desolated area like the lower district?” The Dragon Emperor exclaimed, “Qin Nan, did you really not get anything useful from your trip?”
The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast was curious too.
They were aware of Qin Nan’s talents, thus they would never believe Qin Nan had failed to get anything from the Nine Sabers Ancient Mountain.
“I did.” Qin nan said with a smile, not exposing the truth.
“Forget it, I don’t even care.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast rolled her eyes and said after a slight hesitation, “Qin Nan, do you hold it against us for putting you with Hua Dichen and the core disciples?”
The entire clan was well aware of the conflict between Hua Dichen and Qin Nan.
“Seniors, just say if you have anything in mind.”
Qin Nan urged.
The two Martial Monarchs would not place the two enemies together for no reason, and would not summon him here for a little chat out of nowhere either.
“We know of the conflict between you two, but I hope you would do me a favor. Can you give them a hand during the trip?” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast stared right into Qin Nan’s eyes.
The Dragon Chief remained silent.
This was their decision. Even though Qin Nan was extremely important to them, it was their responsibility to support the growth of their disciples too.
The others might not know it, but they clearly understood Qin Nan’s capabilities.
If Hua Lie, Hua Dichen, Song Dong, and the others knew the two Monarch Beasts were trying to convince Qin Nan for their sake, it would definitely topple their view of the world.
Qin Nan frowned.
He understood where the two Monarch Beasts were coming from, but he had never been a forgiving person. He had shown mercy by not getting rid of Hua Dichen straight away.
“Seniors, how about this, if they take the initiative to trouble me, I will not show any mercy. Otherwise, I wouldn’t mind helping them if I have the chance, but don’t expect too much from me.” Qin Nan calmly said.
“That’s fine by us.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast let out a relieved sigh. Qin Nan’s attitude was better than she had imagined.
It would be troublesome if Qin Nan treated Hua Dichen as his greatest enemy.
“Take this.” The Dragon Emperor handed Qin Nan a storage bag.
“Senior, this…” Qin Nan was startled, not reaching out his hand.
“HAHA, since when have you been reluctant to take our stuff?” The Dragon Emperor wore a smile, “As the genius whom we have chosen, although we’ve never given you something like the Monarch Talisman as a safety precaution, how could we not give you anything at all?”
It went without saying that the core disciples of the other factions were specifically looked after, granting them an abundant supply of resources.
“Alright, thank you senior.”
Qin Nan received the storage bag without further hesitation and brought his fists together, before the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast teleported him back to the Human Peak.
The Human Peak had experienced a tremendous change due to the presence of the Mountain-Suppressing Godly Orb.
Qin Nan quickly scanned the place.
The two hounds and one mouse were in seclusion, and the same with the eight skeletons. Meanwhile, the Six-Spirited Dragon Vein was having a breakthrough.
“Mm? The Dao Origin Crystal has begun to nurture its intelligence?” Qin Nan glanced at the crystal on the peak, before inserting Vital Qi into it.
The Dao Origin Crystal was the main contributor to his cultivation, allowing him to rise up in the Dragon Emperor Clan.
“Let’s see what the Dragon Emperor has for me.”
Qin Nan took out the storage bag and took a quick glance, causing his breathing to intensify.
