Chapter 10 - Arrogant and domineering (1/2)

Ever since Qin Nan’s cultivation had reached the fourth-layer of Body Tempering Realm, he had been very confident in concealing himself. After one has tempered their viscera, they would be able to completely control their aura. If they stopped emitting their aura, it’d be very hard for people to sense them.

At the very least, it should be impossible for a cultivator at the third-layer of Body Tempering Realm to discover Qin Nan.

Seeing that he had been discovered, Qin Nan felt a slight headache. However, he didn’t continue to stay silent or did he decide to escape. Instead, he chose to walk out in an open manner as he asked indifferently, “How did you discover me?”

The middle-aged man seemed slightly dumbstruck. Usually, these who had been discovered tend to seem flustered or bear killing intent. However, the expression of the young man before him was exceedingly calm. This caused him to feel amazed.

Soon after, the middle-aged man came to his senses. His face subconsciously displayed a sense of pride, “The Martial Spirit I had awakened is named ‘Mistgrass’. Although its rank isn’t very high, it has the ability to sense everything within the circumference of ten meters. Your method of concealing yourself is fascinating and if you weren’t within the range of my ability, then it’d definitely be impossible for me to discover you.”

Qin Nan’s heart shivered. He hadn’t foreseen this.

There were many different kinds of Martial Spirits and an infinite number of them. Although there is a clear segregation between Martial Spirits, their abilities are different.

For example, the two brothers, Qin Yu and Qin Xiao. One had a Bow Martial Spirit while the other had a Sword Martial Spirit; both of these Martial Spirits were classified as an Offense type. The Martial Spirit of this middle-aged man before him was classified as a Probe type.

“It seems like I will need to be more cautious in the future. I definitely can’t underestimate everyone because of my cultivation,” thought Qin Nan to himself. This matter could be considered as a warning.

At this moment, Fang Xue’s angry voice resounded, “Who!? Who was following this young lady!?”

Under the escort of the other two middle-aged burly men, Fang Xue promptly rushed over. After seeing Qin Nan’s figure, Fang Xue’s originally angry expression immediately changed into one of dumbstruck. This was due to the fact that she hadn’t expected that the person following her was Qin Nan.

At this moment, the three burly men swiftly surrounded Qin Nan with brimming killing intent. If Qin Nan were to make the slightest movement, the trio would launch a devastating attack in a blink of an eye.

“Qin Nan? How could a waste like you be following me?’ Fang Xue thought it was inconceivable. She was filled with suspicion as she enquired, “Shouldn’t a waste like you be within the Qin Clan properly practicing? Why were you following me?”

The expressions of the three middle-aged burly men gradually turned into one of dumbstruck. They had never imagined that the youth who had followed them was actually the famous Qin Nan of Linshui City, the number one genius who had turned into the number one waste.

At the same time, the three middle-aged burly men slightly let their guard down. Their instincts told them that Qin Nan wouldn't be able to pose a threat to them with his first-grade Martial Spirit and only half a month worth of cultivation.

Qin Nan’s expression immediately turned cold. Initially, he didn’t mind Fang Xue, but who would’ve thought that the second she opened her mouth, the word “waste” would be blurted incessantly.

“Why does it matter to you whether I’m practicing in the Qin Clan or not?” Qin Nan retorted in an indifferent manner. “Moreover, I hadn’t had the slightest interest in following you. I only happened to pass by, that’s all. Now that you’ve found me, I won’t remain here.”

After Qin Nan finished speaking, he immediately turned around and began to leave. He felt disinclined to further associate with the opposite party.

“What did you say!? Stop right there! If you don’t kowtow and apologize to this lady immediately, you won’t be leaving today!” Fang Xue’s voice was incomparably sharp.

Fang Xue’s mood today was simply terrible. This was due to the fact that she had purchased an extremely expensive ancient map in Linshui City. Following this, she brought her guards along with her to search for the treasure in the map.

She wanted to secretly obtain the treasure and then bring it back to the clan. This would definitely cause her parents to gain a newfound respect for her.

However, they had already searched for four hours as they followed the map, but other than the shabby cavern, there wasn’t anything else. Although Fang Xue refused to admit it, her heart was already clear about the fact that this ancient map was a scam.

To think that she, the young lady of the Fang Clan, with a somewhat important background, had unexpectedly been scammed. How could she not be angry?

Now that Qin Nan had appeared before her with an attitude of contempt towards her, it caused Fang Xue’s already terrible mood to immediately erupt. What qualifications does a waste like you have to talk to me in this manner? Qin Nan, do you actually think that you’re still the number one genius?

It was simply asking for death!

“Kowtow and apologize?” Qin Nan felt this was completely absurd, he couldn’t help but retort, “Is there a problem with your head? You want me to kowtow and apologize? Why should I kowtow and apologize to you? Since you like kowtowing and apologizing so much, why don’t you kowtow and apologize to me?”

Originally, Qin Nan thought the two brothers, Qin Yu and Qin Xiao were immoral and shameless. Who would’ve thought that this Fang Xue was even worse than them. The moment she saw him, she wanted him to kowtow and apologize.
