Chapter 180 - 180: Tianti Road Continues!_l
Nangong Aotian basked in the golden light, with a confident expression on his face.
He seemed to have already seen the scene of Qin Changqing being swallowed by the Flood Dragon.
Jian Yi tilted his head slightly, staring with a curious expression.
Lin Ziyi furrowed her eyebrows, hesitating whether to take action or not. Although she didn’t like Qin Changqing, she found Nangong Aotian’s domineering behavior extremely displeasing.
Si Hongyue and Si Jiuyun, the two sisters, watched without blinking.
“He won’t be defeated so easily,” Si Hongyue murmured softly.
As her words fell, the Flood Dragon lunged forward, but suddenly roared and soared upward, making a sharp ninety-degree turn, only a short distance away from Qin Changqing!
Heading straight for him, then suddenly going upwards?
This scene left everyone dumbfounded.
Roar! !
The Emperor-level Flood Dragon skill leaped into the air and returned to Nangong Aotian’s side, staring in Qin Changqing’s direction with a human-like fear in its eyes.
“How is this possible!?”
Nangong Aotian’s complexion drastically changed.
He realized that no matter how he tried to control the Flood Dragon, it was unwilling to attack Qin Changqing.
That feeling… was it fear?
He, a prince of the imperial dynasty, had a beast transformed from his Fortune that was actually afraid of Qin Changqing?
“What did you do!?” Nangong Aotian stared at Qin Changqing, his face pale.
What should have been a glorious scene was bafflingly neutralized by Qin Changqing, causing him to lose face.
He didn’t understand, and neither did the others.
It seemed like a one-sided situation, so how could it be reversed?
Qin Changqing shrugged, “Are you blind? I’m just standing here without moving.”
Although he didn’t know the specifics, he seemed to have a faint understanding.
He didn’t know what an Emperor-level Skill was, but that Flood Dragon seemed… to be transformed from Fortune?
Flood Dragon transformed from Fortune.
Regardless of how strong the Flood Dragon was, it was still a snake.
Qin Changqing was a dragon.
How could a father lose to his son?
“Demons! You must have used some evil technique!” Nangong Aotian said coldly, “You’re close with the demon girl from the Demon Sect, and you must have learned some strange methods from her! Humph! Qin Changqing, your strength is probably tainted too. Tell me! How many innocent lives have you killed!”
Qin Changqing was stunned.
What the hell…
Feeling helpless, he said, “I thought I was shameless enough, but I didn’t expect you to be even more so. I willingly admit defeat to the Third Prince’s shamelessness.”
“Pfft! Hahaha!” Si Jiuyun suddenly burst into laughter, “What kind of dogshit Third Prince? When you can’t win, you blame others for having a problem.
Sister, don’t you think these so-called righteous sects are all shameless?”
“Demonic girl, don’t be so arrogant in front of the cultivators of Tianchuan State’s righteous sects…”
“Shut the fuck up!” Si Jiuyun’s eyes turned cold, “Continue to chatter, and I’ll have our Huntian Sect annihilate your Dayan Dynasty right after Tianti Road! ” “You—” Nangong Aotian’s face turned an extreme shade of ashen.
Not to mention, the Huntian Sect, as one of the top Fourth Grade forces in Tianchuan State, was much stronger than the Dayan Dynasty.
If the Huntian Sect attacked, the major righteous sects would naturally join forces to resist.
But if Dayan deliberately provoked the Huntian Sect, the other sects might not necessarily take action.
After all, no one would pay for others’ mistakes.
“Bah! Coward.” Si Jiuyun sneered, “You only know how to bully others with your power. Is Tianti Road opened by your family? Do you want Taiyi Academy to give Tianti Road to Dayan? And you still want to hold a selection? Are you even worthy?”
Nangong Aotian didn’t say anything.
“Pfft-
Qin Changqing couldn’t help laughing.
Compared to Si Hongyue, her younger sister Si Jiuyun indeed acted more like a Demon Cultivator.
“Humph!”Nangong Aotian eventually couldn’t save face and stay any longer. With a vicious glare at Qin Changqing, he took the lead and rushed towards Tianti Road.
As he moved, the people from various sects who had no hope of being screened also followed him up.
“Thank you, Qin Daoyou.”
A loose cultivator bowed to Qin Changqing.
One could only attempt Tianti Road once in a lifetime, and there was immortal will on it. Moreover, anyone could enter, which was an excellent opportunity for the loose cultivators that they absolutely couldn’t miss.
Loose cultivators really had it tough!
They had to fight for everything themselves, even putting their lives on the line.
Furthermore, they constantly had to endure being bullied by the disciples of the major powers.
So Qin Changqing’s actions were tantamount to extending their opportunities, which was crucial for them.
Qin Changqing laughed, “You’re all too polite, if you have free time in the future, do come to Yinxu Prefecture. I will certainly sweep the couch to welcome you.”
“Certainly, certainly.”
The loose cultivators thanked him again and then went upstairs.
“Brother, we are leaving too.” Nangong Xue and the others exchanged glances with Qin Changqing. The latter waved his hand, indicating that they could just go as they pleased.
“Hehe, Mr. Qin, I just helped you, how will you thank me?” Si Jiuming said with a smile.
“Let’s go.” Si Hongyue glanced at her, “If you want to show off, wait until after
Tianti Road.”
“Hmph, boring.”
The two sisters left as well.
When more than half of the people had left, Qin Changqing leisurely began climbing the Tianti Road.
“How strange, can any of you figure out what Qin Changqing just did?” Outside the Tianti Road, the elders of various sects gathered and talked.
The scene just now left them puzzled.
“It doesn’t seem like any defensive divine power, and Qin Changqing is only at the sixth tier of the Golden Elixir. Even if he had divine power to block, it would not be possible to do so without making any noise.”
“Could it be an array formation?”
“Impossible, there was no fluctuation of array patterns just now.”
“Since one can’t use magical treasures on Tianti Road, what just happened then?”
They didn’t understand.
Many of these elders were at the Divine Transformation Realm, and the weaker ones were at the Nascent Soul Realm. It was unbelievable that they couldn’t see through Qin Changqing’s tactics.
“It might be the will of Tianti Road.” Wu Gang pondered.
“This kid is strange,” said Lin Ruoyun of Qiushui Pavilion, frowning slightly. However, she soon dismissed the matter, thinking that no matter how weird he was, his low cultivation base was a hard fact, and it shouldn’t pose any threat to her daughter.
“Elder MO, congratulations on the Lingxiao Sect producing another genius.” MO Ziya laughed.
“It’s just good luck that he was sheltered by the will of Tianti Road.” Nangong Fu snorted, “It’s also because Aotian was impatient. When on the 6,000th floor of Tianti Road, the impact of the will becomes significant. His actions might have been deemed intolerable by the will of Tianti Road, which is why the attack was resolved. It has nothing to do with that Qin Changqing.”
Others remained silent.
There was no need to argue with Nangong Fu over such self-consolation.
“Haha! I have to say, the shamelessness of the Dayan Dynasty is quite impressive.” Wei Wuxian laughed heartily, “If they win, they boast about their prowess. If they lose, they come up with excuses first. In the end, they can never be wrong. Hehe, they’re trying to be a dragon when they’re actually a worm. Hypocrisy is the name of the game for righteous people.” MO Ziya said, “Wei Daoyou, you should still be careful with your words.”
“Hehe.”
Wei Wuxian laughed but didn’t say anything more. He was still very wary of the Taiyi Academy.
Tianti Road continued!
With the little episode at the 6,000th floor, the situation on Tianti Road seemed to have ‘quieted’ down a lot.
The disciples of the major sects also understood that, at this point, if they wanted to implement any screening mechanism, the loose cultivators and the small sects would band together, and the ones who’d suffer would still be them.
Before, they could intimidate the loose cultivators into submission with the momentum of their sects and their own strength.
Now that they couldn’t be intimidated anymore, forcing the issue would only backfire.
In the situation of the barefoot not being afraid of shoe-wearers, the loose cultivators may be generally weak, but if they were pushed too far and sought revenge, it would be trouble.
After all, the slightest carelessness on Tianti Road would result in mistakes, and once they fell, there would be no more chances for them..
