Chapter 1940 - The Trouble from the Various Factions, Part Three

“Qin Nan, don’t be ridiculous! The three of them teaming up isn’t something you can handle, and they have come prepared too. You are surely going to suffer serious injuries from it!” Supreme Chang Xiao transmitted his voice.

“Patriarch, if they challenge me to a fight, I shall accept it, even if I will end up in serious injuries.”

Qin Nan shook his head.

The Sky Taihuang Sect had helped him a great deal. He did not want the Sky Taihuang Sect to pay for his sake any further.

“Uhh…”

Supreme Chang Xiao was lost for words all of a sudden.

He had forgotten something as he was concerned about Qin Nan’s wellbeing.

Qin Nan was the Strongest Immortal and a successor of the Immortals. He clearly had his own principles, which might have even become his own Dao by now. He would continue forward even if he knew the path was leading him to a deep abyss.

“As expected of the Strongest Immortal, your courage alone surpasses many Exceptional Geniuses!”

Supreme Lingluo of the Illusionary Immortal Dao Gate grinned.

The rest of the Nine Heavens Supremes and the Peerless Rulers shared the same reaction too.

Even though they had no chance of killing Qin Nan this time, they would not let him go easily.

Supreme Canglang of the Extreme Living Gate suddenly blurted out, “Hang on!”

It gathered the crowd’s attention. Supreme Canglang said with a cold grin, “I believe the duel is somewhat unfair! Qin Nan is the Strongest Immortal. What does that mean? It means his strength is unmatchable among the immortals.”

“Even with Lei Daoming, Mu Zhengze, and Zhao Li’er joining hands, they might lose the duel very quickly since they were no match against Qin Nan. Therefore, it’s only fair if Qin Nan sealsseal away half of his immortal force.”

“That way, both sides are on equal footing, allowing Qin Nan and the three young cultivators to have an enjoyable duel.”

The expressions of the Sky Taihuang Sect’s authorities darkened upon hearing the words.

Did he just say Lei Daoming, Mu Zhengze, and Zhao Li’er were going to lose very quickly even if they teamed up?

Both sides were only on equal footing if Qin Nan sealed away half of his immortal force?

How ridiculous did this Supreme Canglang sound!?

“If he’s willing to accept the condition, we won’t be fussed over what he has done in the past. Otherwise, the Sky Taihuang Sect must give us an explanation!” Supreme Canglang grunted.

“He’s right!”

“Cultivator Canglang knows better!”

The rest of the Nine Heavens Supremes nodded in agreement.

It was their plan all along.

Lei Daoming remained expressionless, while Mu Zhengze and Zhao Li’er began to wear a helpless look.

Supreme Chang Xiao was just about to speak when a burst of deafening laughter took place in the hall. Supreme Huanshen of the Heaven-Slaying Sect snorted disdainfully, “Such bullsh*t, you’re too naive if you think you can inflict serious injuries on Qin Nan with your plan.”

“I don’t mind telling you that no one below the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm can possibly defeat Qin Nan regardless of their numbers. Stop bringing shame to yourself!”

The hall immediately fell silent.

Supreme Canglang of the Extreme Living Gate was the first to react. He burst out laughing and scoffed, “Cultivator Huanshen, are you slandering Qin Nan on purpose? Qin Nan might be strong, but does he dare to claim he’s unbeatable below the Nine Heavens Supreme Realm?”

What a joke! Qin Nan is at most in the Greater Success Stage of the Peerless Ruler Realm. How could he possibly be unbeatable?”

“Hehe, I bet even Empress Feiyue wouldn’t dare to say she’s unbeatable regardless of the number of cultivators she was facing back in the days!”

The Nine Heavens Supremes and Peerless Rulers gave their remarks with disdainful looks.

They were not treating Supreme Huanshen’s words seriously.

How lowly was his plan to utter such words just to discredit Qin Nan?

Supreme Huanshen said with a pitiful look, “A bunch of frogs at the bottom of the well. I’m too lazy to explain it to you all. Either way, I’ve warned you.”

Supreme Longhe of the Heaven-Repelling Ancient Sect chuckled and said, “Cultivator Huanshen, that’s enough. If Qin Nan is really unbeatable, why don’t we let Qin Nan duel against the three young cultivators according to Supreme Canglang’s suggestion?”

The authorities of the Sky Taihuang Sect wore displeased looks.

Even Supreme Chang Xiao had blue veins surfacing on his forehead.

They assumed Supreme Canglang and Supreme Huanshen were echoing one another!

However, before anyone could speak, Qin Nan said calmly, “If that’s the case, I will seal away half of my immortal force.”

Supreme Chang Xiao immediately transmitted his voice to advise against it, “Qin Nan, that’s clearly against the rules…”

Qin Nan lifted his gaze and said, “Patriarch, don’t worry, I’m not the kind to act on impulse. I can handle it.”

Supreme Chang Xiao felt his words stuck in his throat when he saw the determination in Qin Nan’s eyes. A while later, he shook his hand helplessly and said, “Whatever you say.”

It was unnecessary for him to advise Qin Nan any further under the circumstances. He simply treated it as a lesson for Qin Nan.

It might not be as bad as he had imagined.

“However, since it’s just a friendly duel, you will not overdo it. There’s no reason for you to fight to your deaths. The duel will only go for a thousand breaths,” Supreme Chang Xiao said firmly.

“Great!”

Supreme Canglang exchanged glances with the others and nodded.

They had already gotten what they asked for. If they continued to apply more pressure, it might produce the opposite of the desired result. Besides, a thousand breaths were more than enough time for the duel.

“The duel will take place here.”

Supreme Chang Xiao flicked his finger and summoned a light barrier encapsulated an area of over a few thousand zhang in the hall.

Lei Daoming, Mu Zhengze, and Zhao Li’er immediately went inside the barrier.

Qin Nan followed them into the barrier too.

“Cultivator Qin Nan, things didn’t turn out as I’ve hoped. I apologize in advance,” Mu Zhengze transmitted his thoughts.

“Qin Nan, I was going to teach you a lesson, but I wouldn’t want to take advantage of the situation to bully you.”

“Besides, I will go easy on you on behalf of that stupid Tang Qingshan.”

Zhao Li’er blinked rapidly.

“Tang Qingshan? Senior Brother? You know him? Where is he now?”

Qin Nan was startled. He immediately asked with eyes brimming with joy.
