Meanwhile, at the entrance of the Wretched Disaster ForestâŠ
âItâs time to head back to the Anti-Heaven Alliance to demand some compensation.â
Qin Nan mumbled with a cold smirk.
A few days ago, on his way to the Wretched Disaster Forest from the Anti-Heaven Alliance, he had been ambushed by the Martial Monarch of the Dead Spirit Tribe, the Thunder Roc Monarch Beast, Martial Monarch Nanjian, and the othersâmore than ten Martial Monarchs in total. He could not believe it to be a mere coincidence. It must have been a setup by the Illusionist Martial Monarch and his crew.
If he hadnât been accompanied by the Sun and Moon Sword God, he would not have been able to survive such a murderous plot.
How could he not get his revenge?
Qin Nan learned the location of the Anti-Heaven Alliance using the Seven Luminaries Sword Talisman. He withdrew his aura and disappeared into the rift, as he headed swiftly toward the Anti-Heaven Alliance.
Time gradually passed. Two days later, inside the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword, the Anti-Heaven PalaceâŠ
âIllusionist Martial Monarch, why are you panicking? Whatâs wrong?â
Following two monarch auras, Martial Monarch Mingkong and Martial Monarch Rongtian arrived majestically. Their auras were stronger than a few days ago, a clear sign that they had had some improvements over the past few days.
âIâve just received the latest information. Two days ago, Qin Nan activated his Seven Luminaries Sword Talisman to locate the Anti-Heaven Alliance, which means heâs still alive.â
The Illusionist Martial Monarch said with a long face.
Since he had learned the news, his good mood had completely disappeared.
âHeâs not dead yet?â
Martial Monarch Mingkong and Martial Monarch Rongtian were startled.
Clearly, after they had spread the news, even if the other Martial Monarchs were unwilling to make their moves, the South-Heaven Sacred Ground would surely set up a trap. How could Qin Nan possibly survive it?\nâMaybe Qin Nan is already dead and someone from the South-Heaven Sacred Ground is activating the Seven Luminaries Sword Talisman?â
Martial Monarch Rongtian said as a thought crossed his mind.
âMm? Thatâs highly possible tooâŠâ
The Illusionist Martial Monarch and Martial Monarch Mingkongâs eyes glistened.
In the past, when the disciples of the Anti-Heaven Alliance were killed, the South-Heaven Sacred Ground would activate the Seven Luminaries Sword Talisman to locate the Anti-Heaven Alliance so they could send someone over to investigate.
Although the South-Heaven Sacred Ground had never figured out where the Seven Luminaries Flying Sword was, they had never stopped trying.
âFellows, Iâm sorry, Iâve let you down.â
A cold voice echoed in the hall.
A figure had appeared at the entrance of the Anti-Heaven Palace out of nowhere. It was none other than Qin Nan.
After spending two days traveling, Qin Nan had returned to the Anti-Heaven Palace. He headed straight to the Anti-Heaven Palace and happened to stumble upon the conversation.
âQinâŠQin Nan?â
The Illusionist Martial Monarch, Martial Monarch Mingkong, and Martial Monarch Rongtian shuddered.
The remaining hope in their hearts completely dissipated.
âSuch a powerful presence, did his cultivation have a breakthrough lately?â
The three Martial Monarchsâ eyes widened when they turned around and saw Qin Nan.
They had discovered that Qin Nanâs aura had suddenly become quite obscure, like a black hole. They could not observe anything even with their cultivations.
In addition to that, they felt a vague pressure from his presence.
None of this had been the case before.
âI have to say, Iâm really impressed by your plot. If I werenât lucky enough, I might be a corpse by now and no one would know the truth.â
Qin Nan stared at the trio as he stepped forward with an expressionless face while uttering the words in a cold tone.\nAn overwhelming aura burst out from this body.
It was as if the atmosphere inside the Anti-Heaven Palace had frozen.
âHehe, Hall Leader Qin Nan, I have no idea what youâre talking about. While you were away from the Anti-Heaven Alliance, we too went somewhere.â
The Illusionist Martial Monarch quickly calmed his thoughts and said indifferently.
âQin Nan, what happened? If itâs something serious, why donât you tell us? Letâs discuss it together. Weâll lend a hand. After all, youâre someone of the Anti-Heaven Alliance too, we wonât allow anyone to bully you.â
Martial Monarch Mingkong and Martial Monarch Rongtian were even better. They acted as if they were actually concerned.
As Martial Monarchs, they were clearly smart enough to cover up their wrongdoings. Although Qin Nan was suspicious of them, they had not left any trace behind, thus Qin Nan would not be able to find any proof.
Without the evidence, all they had to do was to deny it and pretend that they were clueless about it. Qin Nan could not do anything to them.
Qin Nanâs eyes glistened, but he was not too surprised.
It was not like he had not witnessed how shameless the trio could be, hence he had already expected them to deny it.
âQin Nan, I have to say, youâve really caught us by surprise. Now, if you were to apologize to us, weâd pretend nothing happened in the past. We wouldnât take your Heavenly Arcana Immortal Fruits either.
âThereâs no point in you continuing to fight with us.
âEven though youâre very powerful now, you have to understand, youâre still a mere Martial Progenitor and we are Martial Monarchs.â
The Illusionist Martial Monarch said calmly after a slight hesitation.
âThatâs right, apologize to us and weâll forget about the past.â
The eyes of Martial Monarch Mingkong and Martial Monarch Rongtian flickered, who immediately followed up.\nThey had spent lots of time with the Illusionist Martial Monarch, thus they were able to interpret his thoughts fairly quickly.
Qin Nanâs strength was fairly outstanding now and they were no match against him. To prevent Qin Nan from troubling them, they had no choice but to compromise. Once their cultivations improved, they would then be able to get their revenge.
âApologize? Just how shameless can you be?â
Qin Nan almost burst out laughing hearing the words.
The trio was far more shameless than he could have imagined.
Since the very beginning, the trio had been picking on him. Even when they had to compromise, they still demanded he apologize?
Ridiculous!
âYouâre not willing?â
The Illusionist Martial Monarch, Martial Monarch Mingkong, and Martial Monarch Rongtianâs expressions turned cold!
They were already being lenient since they were Martial Monarchs and he was only a Martial Progenitor!
âIf you say so, thereâs nothing left to discuss. By the way, does it make any difference even if you know the truth? You have no proof, you canât do anything to us!â
The trio spoke with mocking grins.
Even though they had no intention of troubling Qin Nan for the time being, they were still Martial Monarchs; they had their pride. Since Qin Nan had rejected their offer, they would immediately oppose him.
âIs that so?â
Qin Nanâs gaze turned icy.
A tremendous murderous intent burst out from his body, causing the surrounding temperature to drop rapidly.
âWhat now? Youâre trying to fight us? HAHAHA, if you have the guts, go ahead and do itâŠâ
The trio was not scared after seeing Qin Nanâs reaction. They burst into laughter instead.
The Anti-Heaven Alliance had strict rules for not using any violence against comrades.
They would not believe Qin Nan had the courage to break the rule.\nHowever, before they could finish, a tremendous aura exploded out in the palace.
âIâll grant you your wish!â
Following a thunderous roar, Qin Nan lunged at the trio like a beam of light.\n
