Chapter 1929 - Shadow of the Insects
“This…”
Qin Nan was a little startled.
Why would the copper mirror show up for no reason?
“Qin Nan, I have to admit that not only is Empress Feiyue a great beauty, she’s also someone with extraordinary talents. It’s going to be insane if you can hook up with her.”
“Oh, you should marry that Supreme Rudao too,” Doom said with a mischievous grin as he collected his thoughts.
“Enough with your nonsense.”
Qin Nan’s lips twisted.
“It’s working!”
Xia Huanhuan was pleased when she saw Qin Nan’s reaction. She placed her hand on her waist and began to take off her long dress.
She was well aware of the difference in cultivation between her and the mysterious young man. Her appearance alone was only enough to distract him briefly.
Therefore, she decided to undress to deliver a stronger blow.
“Puff!”
Qin Nan and Doom almost spat.
This Xia Huanhuan was willing to do anything just to escape!
It was fine if she was using the trick against someone else, but she was using it on Qin Nan!
He still had the red string on him. Empress Feiyue was going to see everything through the red string!
Xia Huanhuan was overjoyed when she saw Qin Nan in great shock. She was feeling even more confident. Her expression became alluring with a hint of grief, “Husband, why are you treating me as your enemy? Don’t you know that I…”
She continued to take off her dress while she was speaking, revealing her shoulders first. She was going to take it off further.
BANG!
An overwhelming will surged wildly in the nick of time.
The rift shook vigorously. The sky and the ground were devoured by darkness.
Xia Huanhuan’s eyes immediately widened in astonishment.
How did the young man unleash such a terrifying will?
The will immediately penetrated her mind and knocked her out as soon as the thought crossed her mind.
She regained her appearance too.
It was obvious that Qin Nan did not attack her. It was Empress Feiyue instead!
“Copper mirror, this…”
Qin Nan wore an awkward expression. Either way, Xia Huanhuan had only claimed the copper mirror’s appearance because of him.
“One more time, and I’ll make you an eunuch of the mundane world!”
A cold voice said, before everything quickly returned to normal.
“Phew, what a relief…”
Qin Nan let out a long sigh.
He was quite familiar with the copper mirror. If she was really angry, she would attack him without bothering to waste her time talking to him.
Qin Nan withdrew his thoughts. He immediately captured Xia Huanhuan with the Ownerless Heaven Pattern.
He looked at the young man whom Xia Huanhuan had brought with her.
“Senior, I…”
The young man tugged his neck inward in despair.
He thought it was his chance to become successful in his life, yet he ended up in such a tragedy.
“Come in here too.”
Qin Nan knocked the young man out with his immortal force and captured him with the Ownerless Heaven Pattern too.
“Tsk tsk, Qin Nan, you have only captured Exceptional Geniuses so far. You have never used it on a Heaven Immortal. Don’t tell me you’re trying to get your revenge just because Xia Huanhuan had chosen him instead of you?” Doom teased.
Qin Nan rolled his eyes. He ignored him and scanned the surroundings.
He had gone deep into the mysterious palace while he was chasing after Xia Huanhuan without realizing it. There were no other cultivators nearby. He only saw an enormous mountain with a magnificent aura standing firmly not far ahead.
The waist of the mountain had a floating ancient city.
Qin Nan’s Immortal Eyes of the Divine God of Battle also picked up an unusual energy ripple from the city and the mountain. Those two places must contain some ancient successions and fortunate encounters.
However, Qin Nan was not interested in them at all. He quickly withdrew his gaze.
He had just captured Xia Huanhuan. The people of the Ten Desires Sect would notice that she had gone missing very soon. They were most likely going to send a lot of experts to investigate this place. He should leave as soon as possible.
Buzz buzz buzz!
A loud buzz was heard all of a sudden. Qin Nan quickly looked around him and saw countless pitch-black insects flying out of the mountain.
The buzz was produced by their rapidly beating wings.
“Doom, could they be…”
Qin Nan was astounded.
“That’s right, these are venomous insects, the Black Immortal Venomous Insects to be precise. Only a Peerless Ruler can nurture them.” Doom wore a cold look as he said with a hollow laugh, “It looks like we are lucky enough to stumble into an old friend.”
He was clearly referring to Immortal Emperor Gushi whom they had fought against in the Realm of the Primordial Blood.
Qin Nan did hear that Immortal Emperor Gushi had come to the Twenty-Third Small Immortal Realm, but he did not expect to stumble into him here.
Qin Nan noticed the venomous insects focusing their attention on him. He quickly used an Art of Dao Seeking to alter his presence.
The immortal flames in his eyes flickered.
Qin Nan did not have a good impression of Immortal Emperor Gushi. If he did not learn the Lord of All Worlds in time, he had no clue what was going to happen to him in the end.
“Qin Nan, let’s take a look. Immortal Emperor Gushi is called one of the Three Great Peerless Rulers. He must be after something valuable,” Doom said.
Qin Nan nodded after a slight ponder.
He was not in a rush for now. He did have some time to spare. He would not mind taking a look first. It was not too late to run away if he did not find anything valuable.
Whoosh!
Qin Nan arrived at the mountain following a flicker. He activated the Immortal Eyes of the Divine God of Battle to scan his surroundings.
“This must be it!”
A few moments later, Qin Nan locked his gaze on a towering tree. He directed a wisp of immortal force at it with a flick. The leaves on the tree fell rapidly and formed a formation.
Qin Nan stepped onto the formation. He started to fall as if he was dragged by a strong force into a tunnel.
The tunnel was five zhang tall and three zhang wide. It was moist, and was flowing with a shocking immortal intent.
Qin Nan withdrew his aura as he followed the path. His vision soon broadened as he arrived in a chamber.
The walls on both sides were engraved with ancient drawings. They were lit up by candles.
“The treasure here has been taken.”
Qin Nan concluded when he saw the empty platform. He could not help but frown.
It was obvious that Immortal Emperor Gushi had been here, but where did he go? Why was he missing?
“Qin Nan, look, there’s a teleporting formation here!”
