Peerless Battle Spirit

Chapter 973 - Senior Brother and Junior Brother

“This…”

“The Saber King's Boulder was slashed in half!”

“Holy crap, how is Qin Nan’s saber intent so powerful?”

“Is he the top inner disciple of the Dragon Emperor Clan, or the top inner disciple of the Heaven-Saber Sect? I believe only Tang Qingshan’s saber intent is comparable to his!”

The crowd inhaled deeply with astounded faces.

The Saber King's Boulder was an incredible rare artifact, which no one had managed to slash in half until now!

“Let’s go.”

Tang Qingshan glanced at the First Elder.

Qin Nan brought his fists together and followed behind.

The two proceeded straight toward the main entrance. No one dared to stop them.

“Quick, call for an elders meeting!” The First Elder’s expression darkened as he stared at the two figures, before he waved his hand and left the place through a rift.

The other elders immediately followed him.

A moment later, the news regarding Qin Nan’s arrival and his achievement of slashing the Saber King's Boulder in half was made known to every single person of the Heaven-Saber Sect, apart from the two Martial Monarchs.

“Are you sure, Tang Qingshan called Qin Nan his Junior Brother?”

“I heard that they both came from the lower district of the Eastern Continent, so it wouldn’t surprise me if he is!”

“This Qin Nan is too terrifying, no wonder his rank had increased by over seven hundred!”

“I’m afraid only Senior Brother Tang Qingshan’s saber intent could be comparable to Qin Nan’s among the inner disciples!”

“I heard that the elders are having a meeting, are they trying to kill Qin Nan?”

“Hehe, with Senior Brother Tang Qingshan involved, who would dare to harm him?”

Various discussions took place in the Heaven-Saber Sect.

Even the disciples from the other factions were discussing the same topic.

As the disciples expected, the elders were not able to come up with any useful decision after a series of quarrels in the meeting.

Even though Qin Nan’s actions had given the Heaven-Saber Sect a great slap to their face, what could they possibly do?

Tang Qingshan’s Senior Brother was the Martial Monarch of their Heaven-Saber Sect!

As long as the Martial Monarch remained silent, no one would be able to harm Tang Qingshan, unless the top core disciple was involved!

Meanwhile, in the second inner disciple palace…

The atmosphere was slightly oppressive as the inner disciples stared blankly at one another. Most of them gulped their words down as they saw the expression on Cui Lixu’s face.

“Phew!” Cui Lixu exhaled deeply before he recovered and said, “The fact that Qin Nan is here doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad thing. I remember Senior Sister Wen Wu is planning to hold a gathering when the Nine Sabers Ancient Mountain is activated, right? Why don’t we suggest for her to invite Qin Nan too?”

“That’s not a bad idea!”

“Smart move, Senior Brother. We could easily get them to do the dirty work for us to humiliate Qin Nan!”

The inner disciples expressed their thoughts.

Wen Wu was one of the core disciples of the Heaven-Saber Sect, ranked twenty-seventh on the Monarch Ranking. Similar to Cui Lixu, she was the disciple of one of the two Martial Monarchs of the sect, the Thousand Light Saber Monarch.

As the Nine Sabers Ancient Mountain was opening, Wen Wu became interested after knowing that the saber artists from the other factions would be paying them a visit, thus she had planned to hold a gathering to make friends with them.

Wen Wu was extremely faithful to the Heaven-Saber Sect, thus she hated the enemies of her sect the most. She had once spent a month’s time to hunt down the copper and silver-grade enemies of her faction.

If she were to stumble into Qin Nan, even though she would not be able to kill him on the spot due to Tang Qingshan’s presence, it was enough to cause Qin Nan a great deal of trouble.

…Meanwhile, in the first inner disciple palace…

The undercurrent flowing around the Heaven-Saber Sect was entirely irrelevant in this palace.

The inside of the palace was very simple, with only a small pond, two wooden chairs, a wooden table with two sets of chopsticks and bowls, and two cups.

There was no sign of any treasures or artifacts, but it made everyone felt at home.

Tang Qingshan’s expression became calm as he entered the palace. Instead of talking to Qin Nan, he went forward and placed the black saber on one of the chairs, before letting out a rare smile, “Meng Er, Qin Nan is here.”

The black saber shuddered softly to express her joy.

“Senior Sister, it’s been a while.”

For some reason, Qin Nan could feel his nose tingling. He immediately withdrew his thoughts and wore a smile.

“Go and pay respects to the master and Senior Brothers.” Tang Qingshan said.

Qin Nan nodded as he entered the room.

On the center of the wall hung the hand-drawn portrait of Sacred Leader Qinglong with a gentle smile, and beside it were the portraits of Peak Leader Duanmu, Peak Leader Luo, and Peak Leader Zhang. The artist was incredibly talented, as he was able to make the drawings feel extremely alive.

“Master, Senior Brothers…”

Qin Nan stared at the portraits blankly, as he could clearly remember everything that had taken place at the Qinglong Sacred Area.

Although fate had been cruel to them, he still had Tang Qingshan with him.

They were still moving forward while carrying the will of Sacred Leader Qinglong, Peak Leader Duanmu, Peak Leader Luo, and Peak Leader Zhang.

They were not dead, as they still lived in their hearts.

Without hesitation, Qin Nan dropped to his knees and did three kowtows, before leaving the room.

“You reminded me not to forget about the Qinglong Sacred Area, and I’m really grateful for it. Sometimes, I felt like my cultivation was going haywire, so I asked a sacred artist to draw their portraits to remind me that master and three Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers are watching over me.”

Tang Qingshan said softly as his gaze cleared, “Qin Nan, don’t worry, I’ve chosen to let go of myself to fully immerse myself in the Art of Slaughter. After all, to surpass the Godly Exterminator, I’ve got to become one first.”

"To surpass the Godly Exterminator, you’ve got to become one first?”

Qin Nan’s figure shuddered as he recalled Tang Qingshan’s behavior at the Ranking Battle, and immediately come to a realization.

Tang Qingshan had found his path!

“Senior, congratulations!” Qin Nan said sincerely, “You will be successful, and you will be able to protect me too.”

“You little brat…” Tang Qingshan was left speechless.

Since when did this Qin Nan know how to pull a joke? He clearly knew that Qin Nan’s ranking on the Monarch Ranking had surpassed his, although it was because Tang Qingshan had spent the whole month cultivating in seclusion.

In terms of strength, it was impossible to tell who was stronger was at the moment.

“Qin Nan, how strong are you now?” Tang Qingshan withdrew his thoughts and picked up a pair of chopsticks.

“Senior, how about you?” Qin Nan slowly plucked three leaves from the tree beside him.

The atmosphere of the place intensified all of a sudden.

The black saber on the chair fell silent, as if it were watching them closely.

“I should be able to beat you!” Tang Qingshan’s eyes unleashed a shocking murderous intent as the pair of chopsticks were fired at a rapid speed.

“You’re no match against me!”

Qin Nan’s battle intent skyrocketed as the leaves were fired from his hand.

BANG!

The chopsticks and leaves collided into one another, resulting in a tremendous impact.

Following this, it was as if two magnificent figures had risen in the midst of the ashes.
