Chapter 427 - The Successor of Gambling City (1/2)
“Don’t overthink it. I shall head straight there and find the object first!”
Qin Nan calmed himself down. There was no way he could solve all his doubts now, thus instead of pondering further, his priority now was to improve his cultivation to the peak Martial Ancestor Realm so he could pay a visit to Sacred Leader Qinglong to clear the doubts.
Following this, the four swiftly pressed forward, heading straight to the location of the succession.
...Meanwhile, on a mountain somewhere in the Qinglong Mystical Ground...
The peak of the mountain stood two figures. One of them was none other than Yang Taitian. As for the young man standing beside him who was clothed ordinarily, he wore a faint smile on his face while the pride in his bones was vaguely displayed from his aura.
If any other disciple were to be here, the person would discover that this young man was the second-ranked son among the three sons of Xiao Clan, the successor of the Gambling City—Xiao Hong!
“According to the intel, Princess Miao Miao is now heading to the location of Sacred Leader Qinglong’s succession!”
Yang Taitian wore an unpleasant face.
He followed his father’s instructions to participate in the Qinglong Mystical Ground Trial just to deal with Qin Nan. However, he ended up changing his mind when Sacred Leader Qinglong announced that his succession could be found here. That being said, he had not expected this Princess Miao Miao to be this powerful.
As such, not only did he fail to eliminate Qin Nan, he could not even acquire the location of Sacred Leader Qinglong’s succession!
“Don’t worry, from my predictions, Princess Miao Miao would definitely summon Qin Nan to the location of Sacred Leader Qinglong’s succession,” Xiao Hong said in a calm tone, “Once they’ve gathered together, we would only need to find their location and deal with them all at once with the help from the two brothers, Xue Wuji and Xue Wuheng!”
Yang Taitian wore a confused look, “How are we able to find their location?”
“The Saintess Jiang Bilan had already expected this to happen. She specifically prepared an artifact for us. It’s capable of finding the location of Sacred Leader Qinglong’s succession!”
Xiao Hong calmly said and flipped his right hand. An ancient mirror appeared in his palm.
The frame of the ancient mirror was carved with six dragons, each dragon having five golden claws, leaving it with an imperious appearance.
“Five-clawed Golden Dragons peeking at the secrets of the Heavens, find the succession at once!”
Xiao Hong let out a grunt as he inserted his force into the ancient mirror, causing it to instantly let out a series of roars. Six golden dragons—each with five claws—could be seen emerging from the ancient mirror and soaring into the sky.
A brief while after, a light dot flickered on the surface of the ancient mirror, which was just over a hundred li away from their current location.
“Awesome!”
Yang Taitian could not help but express his astonishment.
“It’s just a mere trick. Brother Yang, you would need to deal with Qin Nan when the time comes.” Xiao Hong said with a firm tone.
“That won’t be a problem.”
An icy grin appeared on Yang Taitian’s face.
His father was worried that Qin Nan would interfere with their plans at the Ocean of Death, thus he had prepared many ways to eliminate him in this Grand Competition of the Sixteen Mountains. However, he had not expected the eldest son of the Xiao Clan and the Saintess of the Trading Alliance were planning to deal with Qin Nan too, thus sending Xiao Hong here.
Now with the help of Xiao Hong and the Xue brothers, how could Qin Nan escape from death this time?
“I’ll send a message to Xue Wuji!”
After Xiao Hong transmitted his voice, he exchanged glances with Yang Taitian, before the two immediately left the place without further ado.
……
……
“We’re here!”
