Chapter 1306: Chapter 1305: The Life of Emperor Qitian, World-Ending Luan Immortal Palace
âEveryone, itâs been a long time,â a figure walking out of the mountain dust chuckled lightly.
His voice was clear, making it very pleasant and magnetic to hear.
The longsword returned to its sheath, and the sound of footsteps came lightly. As the dust gradually dispersed, everyone finally saw the figure of Qi Haoran.
He wore a white robe, still spotless after all these years.
The white robe was as pure as snow, and the longsword behind him was three feet wide and three feet long, with the sound of a dragonâs cry coming from the sheath.
The silver-white sword emitted a faint light.
Beneath his feet were the Chenlong Boots, and his black hair was tied up with a black ribbon, with faint waves of sword intent in his eyes.
He practiced the way of the sword, but the sword relied primarily on power.
The sword was just a tool for bearing power.
âSect Master Qi, youâve finally come out,â Elder Bi exhaled a deep breath.
What he feared most was that Qi Haoran was currently in a state of enlightenment and unable to appear for a while.
If this led to Xu Zimeiâs wrath, the Haotian Sect would probably face a catastrophe.
âElder Bi, what exactly happened?â Qi Haoran glanced around.
His deep eyes seemed to instantly see through the thousand-mile area around the Haotian Sect.
There was neither war nor signs of destruction, so he naturally didnât understand the situation of crushing a Life Crystal.
âYouâd better speak with this Young Master Xu,â replied Elder Bi.
Immediately, he retreated with the others.
The two of them talking, it certainly wasnât convenient for them to stay.
âWho are you?â Qi Haoran glanced at Xu Zimei, then his eyes suddenly widened as if he sensed something.
âYou have practiced the Heaven-shaking Skill.â
As a fellow practitioner of the Heaven-shaking Skill, he naturally could perceive some subtleties.
Or perhaps it was the aura intentionally emitted by Xu Zimei.
âAre you Qi Haoran?â Xu Zimei asked.
The other party nodded in response and asked, âFrom the Ten Great Families?â
It was not unreasonable for him to think so, after all, the true origin of the Heaven-shaking Skill lay in the Heaven Extreme Realm where the Ten Great Families resided.
Xu Zimei didnât speak but took out the Legacy Token given by Emperor Qitian.
He directly threw the token to Qi Haoran.
âThis is Yuranâs token,â Qi Haoran was shocked and quickly caught the token.
âThatâs right, itâs his.â
âEmperor Qitian asked me to bring the token back, and now I have fulfilled my promise,â Xu Zimei said.
âHow is he?â Qi Haoran put away the token and sighed.
âHeâs dead,â Xu Zimei said bluntly.
âDead,â Qi Haoran was slightly stunned by the news.
âHe was suppressed by the Myriad Flowers Fairy and suffered immense torment, already on the brink of annihilation,â Xu Zimei explained.
âI happened to meet him once at the end of his life.â
âIf we had been stronger back then, todayâs outcome might have been different,â Qi Haoranâs figure was somewhat dazed, difficult to accept.
âEven in death, he remembered the Haotian Sect.â
âWhat conflict do you have with the Myriad Flowers Fairy?â Xu Zimei asked.
He had met the Myriad Flowers Fairy before, but the other party had appeared only as a projection.
It was also that Xie Changliuâs wife was controlled by the mind.
âConflict, probably still about the Heaven-shaking Skill,â Qi Haoran replied.
âEach of the Ten Divine Methods has a divine method, and the Wan Family of Northwest City is the origin of the Heaven-shaking Skill.
And the Myriad Flowers Fairy is said to be a consecration of this Wan Family.â
âConsecration?â Xu Zimei murmured to himself.
âActually, I and Emperor Qitian are brothers, identical twin brothers,â Qi Haoran suddenly said.
âYou donât look alike,â Xu Zimei said.
âWho says twins have to look exactly alike,â Qi Haoran said.
âOur mother was a servant girl of the Wan Family, who once became pregnant with the family headâs child by chance.
But ultimately, because of her low status, from birth we could only follow our motherâs surname, not Wan.â
Qi Haoran smiled and continued, âAfter we grew up, we stole the cultivation token of the Heaven-shaking Skill from the Wan Family.
Then we fled to this Catastrophe Demon Domain, intending to establish a sect and create a force comparable to the Ten Great Families.â
âThe Myriad Flowers Fairy was ordered by the Wan Family to kill you?â Xu Zimei asked.
âI suppose thatâs the case, or else we have no interactions and no grievances,â Qi Haoran said.
âThat Myriad Flowers Fairy is a true powerhouse. At that time, Emperor Qitian and I had already made a name for ourselves in this Catastrophe Demon Domain.
Unfortunately, even with the two of us together, we werenât her match.
Emperor Qitian was captured by her, and I searched everywhere in vain, only to enter closed cultivation, hoping one day to rival the Myriad Flowers Fairy.â
âEmperor Qitianâs sacrifice protected the Haotian Sect and fulfilled me.â
Qi Haoran closed his eyes, his body trembling slightly.
âIt would be wise for you to stay out of the Myriad Flowers Fairyâs matters,â Xu Zimei said.
He had encountered the Myriad Flowers Fairy, who should be an ancient lingering power.
Joining the Wan Family, she must have a purpose; otherwise, she would never subject herself to othersâ orders.
âIn terms of both sentiment and reason, both my Haotian Sect and I, Qi Haoran, owe you a debt of gratitude,â Qi Haoran turned around and solemnly said.
âShould you need anything in the future, you can come to my Haotian Sect.â
âWell, I happen to have something,â Xu Zimei said with a smile.
âWhat is it?â Qi Haoran asked.
âHelp me destroy the Tianluan Immortal Palace,â Xu Zimei said.
âTianluan Immortal Palace?â Qi Haoran frowned slightly and said, âI need to discuss this matter with the sect and will give you a satisfactory answer.â
âIâll be waiting,â Xu Zimei nodded, then left towards the courtyard.
Watching Xu Zimeiâs departing figure, Qi Haoran knew that destroying Tianluan Immortal Palace was no simple matter.
After all, the opposing party was also a top-ranking force.
Besides, having just exited seclusion, he needed to familiarize himself with others and couldnât make a decision on his own.
âŠâŠ
In the Haotian Sectâs Council Hall.
After listening to Qi Haoranâs words, the Second Elder was the first to complain, âHe has so many Great Saints. Destroying the Tianluan Immortal Palace would be a matter of minutes.
Why does he need us to take action?â
âYoung Master Xu must have his own plans,â Elder Bi explained.
âElder Bi, you are an elder of the Haotian Sect. Your actions too must prioritize the sect,â the Second Elder replied.
âDo you know how many people will die if a war is waged?â
The elders below also began to argue amongst themselves.
Some agreed, hoping to align with Xu Zimei, while others refused.
âWhat do you think, Huijun?â Qi Haoran turned his gaze to Qiao Huijun and asked.
âEverything is up to Sect Master,â Qiao Huijun said with a smile.
He no longer offered any strategies since Qi Haoranâs return from seclusion.
Agreeing or refusing such matters offered no benefit.
So he threw the ball back to Qi Haoran.
âAny elder who disagrees, please stand out,â Qi Haoran glanced around at everyone and asked.
