Chapter 728 - This Wine is Strong
Following this...
As the Sky-Scorching Emperor and his crew had completely destroyed the Dao-Seeking Mountain, it had become history from that day onward. Furthermore, the situation of the Eastern Continent experienced a tremendous change.
The Trading Alliance had withdrawn from White Tiger City and moved to somewhere close to the Wanxiang Pavilion. It then declared that it had formed an alliance with the Wanxiang Pavilion.
As such, in simple terms, there were only two factions left in the Eastern Continent.
Meanwhile, as the incident that took place at the Dao-Seeking Mountain was spread across the Eastern Continent, Qin Nan suddenly became the hot topic for everyone!
“Impressive! So impressive! This Qin Nan is superb!”
“He was known as Duan Qing before and has now switched back to his real identity of Qin Nan, the one who eliminated the Dao-Seeking Mountain! Who else among the geniuses of the Eastern Continent could achieve that?”
“Even the top three on the Hidden Dragon Ranking are incomparable to Qin Nan!”
“Hehe, did you guys forget? Qin Nan sacrificed his Tribulation to destroy the Heavenly Celestial Formation of the Dao-Seeking Mountain. Isn’t he a cripple now?”
“Cripple? You piece of trash dare to say Qin Nan is a cripple? Could you achieve what he’s done? You can’t even be compared to a strand of his hair!”
“That’s right!”
“Let me be honest; it was obvious that Qin Nan had decided to shatter his Tribulation all along. Don’t you know that he had obtained the Heavenly Fortune Talisman? He could easily alter his destiny at the Heavenly Fortune Path!”
“Tsk tsk, I completely forgot about that. That being said, Qin Nan was the main reason that the Dao-Seeking Mountain was eliminated. I don’t think Cheng Tiange would easily forgive Qin Nan at the Heavenly Fortune Path?”
“Of course, don’t you know that the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom is already searching for Cheng Tiange?”
“You can’t be sure about that yet. I was told that Qin Nan was close to an elder of the Mu Clan! Would Cheng Tiange still dare to trouble Qin Nan?”
Countless discussions took place across the Eastern Continent.
Most of the people were respectful toward Qin Nan’s accomplishments, to such an extent that some of them had even treated him as their role model.
Meanwhile, some bad-mouthed and mocked him.
As for the others, they were looking forward to seeing the battle between Qin Nan and Cheng Tiange when the Heavenly Fortune Path was opened.
In summary, the history of the Eastern Continent had been thoroughly rewritten, as a new chapter unfolded.
The name Qin Nan was now the brightest star in the Eastern Continent.
meanwhile...
...Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom, Vermilion Bird Platoon, Yellow Soil Dojo...
Qin Nan, Princess Miao Miao, Sima Kong, Longhu, and Gong Yang had gathered together.
“Brother Yang, what’s your plan for the future?”
Qin Nan was the first one to break the silence.
After he had returned from the Dao-Seeking Mountain, he did not refine the Heaven-Shattering Saber straight away. After giving out all of the rare artifacts, his main concern was the decisions of his companions.
After all, they were no longer the same as before.
“I’m heading to the Middle Continent.” Gong Yang let out a smile facing the group, before he transmitted his voice to Qin Nan, “Qin Nan, obtaining the Nine Symbolic Words was a great fortune for me, but it also gives me a great duty to fulfill. Therefore, I guess we’ll be taking separate paths from here onward, but we’ll surely reunite in the near future.”
“Sure!”
Qin Nan responded with a smile.
A single word as a promise.
Little words were needed between them.
“Farewell.”
Gong Yang glanced at the crowd and recalled the Blind Swordsman and the stone statue. When the statue had let out a smile in the end, the Blind Swordsman had decided to stay on the mountain for the rest of his life to keep the statue company. The whole event had greatly moved him, thus he had decided to fulfill his duty given by the Nine Symbolic Words, so that he could embark on his own adventure.
Love is beautiful.
Gong Yang left the place with a kick.
“HAHA, Qin Nan, I’m not in a rush to leave, but I’m preparing to scour the forbidden areas of the Eastern Continent. Hehe, you know me.” Sima Kong gave Qin Nan a wink and left.
The successor of the Emperor of Thieves would not be satisfied with only stealing from the Trading Alliance.
“This guy.” Qin Nan chuckled and shook his head.
“Princess, seeing how strong and intimidating my body is, and how lonely you will be when you return to the Mu Clan, you’ll definitely need someone like me…” Longhu stared at Princess Miao Miao. The previously stunning young teenage girl had now turned into a devastating beauty, causing his heart to beat rapidly.
“Beat it.”
Princess Miao Miao rolled her eyes.
“AH! Why am I always the one being hurt!” Longhu uttered a roar of agony into the sky.
“Qin Nan, come with me.” Princess Miao Miao reached out her soft hand and held Qin Nan’s hand, causing the latter—who had fearlessly fought against the Heavens and Earth—to be startled, while his heartbeat inexplicably sped up as they flew into the distance.
They soon arrived on the peak of a mountain not far away from the Vermilion Bird Platoon.
The night had fallen. The pitch-black sky was illuminated with countless stars, as if it were a fascinating piece of art.
Princess Miao Miao softened her grip and took a deep breath. She glanced at the enchanting night sky before reaching out her hand and saying, “Qin Nan Nan, where’s my stuff?”
Qin Nan glanced at the Princess, and for a period of time he was dazed.
On the peak of the mountain, the woman’s hair danced elegantly, as a smile was visible on her attractive face, with a slight hint of mischief, as if she had turned into a glamorous elf. Previously, through the Illusionary Mirror, Qin Nan could tell that Princess Miao Miao was becoming prettier, but he had never thought that he would lose himself in her beauty.
Princess Miao Miao straightened her face when Qin Nan remained silent for a while, “Were you lying to me all this time?”
Qin Nan immediately collected his thoughts and let out a wry smile, “My Highness, how would I dare to lie to you? Here are the wines that I’ve collected for you.” Saying this, he flicked his finger and took out all the wines he had stored inside his bag, causing the place to be filled with a great aroma.
“Wow! Such a pleasant scent! So satisfying!”
The Princess’s eyes began to sparkle as a charming smile could be seen on her face.
Qin Nan was dazed once again, before he quickly gathered his thoughts. His eyes were filled with a confused look. Strange, with my current cultivation and will, why am I still being baffled by her charm?
“Not like this, I have to stabilize my Martial Heart…”
Qin Nan mumbled.
“Qin Nan Nan, come and drink with me!” The Princess had already finished a jar, causing her face to blush, giving her a charming appearance.
Qin Nan’s Martial Heart had completely lost its ground as he subconsciously nodded. He picked up a jar and started drinking. A while later, he asked as a thought crossed his mind, “Princess, how did you end up at the Mu Clan? I can see that your status at the Mu Clan is nothing ordinary.”
“Don’t talk about that, let’s talk about your experiences instead. The Princess never expected that our Qin Nan Nan would assemble such a formidable force in such a short period of time—impressive.” Princess Miao Miao’s eyes glittered.
Despite the fact that she had always been keeping an eye on Qin Nan, she still wanted to hear the story from him.
“Cough cough, well, that will be a long story. After the events at the Ocean of Death…”
Not being sure if it was because of the alcohol, or that Qin Nan was relieved after the Dao-Seeking Mountain was eliminated, he began to tell the story of his journey.
The night breeze swept pats.
A man and a woman continued to drink with smiles on their faces.
It was as if time had frozen.
Qin Nan glanced at the Princess before him while he felt slightly dizzy, but he continued to speak as if the words in his heart were never-ending.
It was a strange sight indeed.
Could it be that the wine was strong?
Perhaps.
