Chapter 1017: Chapter 1019 – Applying Pressure

With the clones of the Thousand Light Saber Monarch and Martial Monarch Huo Ling leading the way, the elders followed behind as the group headed to the Dragon Emperor Clan.

“Damn it, he managed to escape. I can only return to the half-God region and report back to the sect!” The genius of the God Ranking cursed with a dark expression before taking his leave. There was no reason for him to stay any further.

After all, his faction was located in the half-God region.

Furthermore, it was impossible for his faction to come all the way to the Middle Continent just for something left by the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch.

“Damn it, Qin Nan was so lucky, but now that my father is involved, there’s no way he will be able to escape!” Huo Wulong cursed before saying in a prideful tone.

The three Martial Monarchs’ sons left the scene too.

“I have to say, this Qin Nan is really impressive.”

“I wouldn’t say so, he was just lucky that he could see in the darkness. Otherwise, how could he retrieve the succession?”

“Now that the factions are applying pressure, the Dragon Emperor Clan wouldn’t dare to offend everyone for Qin Nan’s sake. They will let him hand over the succession too!”

“He might be innocent, but the fact that he has the succession has placed him in great trouble.”

The crowd of disciples discussed for a moment before leaving in groups.

“Qin Nan, such a mysterious saber intent that managed to suppress my three ancient sabers. What saber does he have? It seems like I’ll need to restore the intelligence of my sabers as soon as possible…” Dao Qianzhong mumbled as his eyes flickered coldly, before he disappeared from the place.

In comparison to the treasure left by the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch, he was more interested in the saber in Qin Nan’s hand.

…Meanwhile, in the Dragon Emperor Clan…

Whoosh!

A crimson ray descended from the sky rapidly, before landing on the dojo with a loud crash, resulting in an enormous pit.

“What just happened?”

“I think someone has just fallen from the sky!”

Within a single breath, the elders of the Dragon Emperor Clan immediately went over to take a look. They were stunned as they took a glimpse at the pit.

They could only see Qin Nan covered in blood with a miserable appearance and a weakened aura.

“Cough cough…”

Qin Nan let out a cough and tried to move, but inhaled deeply when he sensed the pain from his body.

The seven-inch purple dragon had sacrificed itself to teleport him inside the rift. He was severely injured because the energy was too powerful for his body to endure.

“Qin Nan…What happened to you?” One of the elders blurted out upon collecting his thoughts.

Qin Nan was about to speak when the space behind him was shattered as a pair of jade-like legs stepped out from it. A fair arm reached out and helped Qin Nan up from the ground.

A pleasant scent entered Qin Nan’s nose.

The elders who were surrounding the pit were dumbfounded seeing the woman.

Wasn’t this the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast?

Qin Nan was startled too. He did not expect the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast to do something so intimate.

“It’s fine, let me handle the rest.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast said softly in a gentle manner.

“Mm.” Qin Nan nodded. He rose from the ground, leapt out from the pit and sat down on the ground to recover his injury.

The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast glanced at the elders. The gentleness in her eyes was replaced with a solemn expression.

“Tell the Peak Leaders, elders, and disciples of the Dragon Emperor Clan to prepare for battle!”

“Activate the Beast Hoard Heaven-Suppressing Formation!”

Her voice echoed throughout the entire Dragon Emperor Clan, causing the Peak Leaders, elders, and disciples who were cultivating in seclusion to be astounded.

“What’s going on?”

“Are we being attacked?”

“Attacked? Are you being serious, who would dare to do so!”

The Dragon Emperor Clan became lively instantly.

Despite being confused, the people immediately executed the orders of the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast.

At that instant, the Battle Dragon Peak, the Nine-Tailed Peak, the Qilin Peak, etc. activated their respective formations, which resulted in a powerful aura.

Furthermore, deep inside the Dragon Emperor Clan, more than ten elders cooperated to activate a huge formation.

A barrier slowly appeared and expanded in the sky, which soon covered the entire Dragon Emperor Clan within it.

The illusionary figures of several ancient beasts appeared above the barrier. It was as if their presence alone could suppress the entire sky!

This was the Beast Hoard Heaven-Suppressing Formation. Even a Martial Monarch Realm expert would have trouble breaking it within a day!

The Nine-Tailed Beast Monarch stood in front of Qin Nan and waved her hand, firing a white beam into Qin Nan’s body. Following this, she scanned her surroundings and said, “All Peak Leaders, elders, and inner disciples are to gather at the dojo now!”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh…

Many people began to make their way to the dojo, and they soon realized that Qin Nan was injured.

“Mm? It was Qin Nan? Why is he injured?”

“Didn’t he go for the succession of the half-Martial God? Why is he here?”

“What happened?”

“I have a feeling that we were summoned here because of him.”

The Peak Leaders and elders whispered among each other.

“Silence!” The face of the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast became cold, “It’s time to welcome our guests.”

The entire dojo instantly fell silent, as the crowd glanced into the distance.

They immediately sensed a formidable aura approaching their direction at a shocking pace. They were astounded when they took a closer look.

It was the Thousand Light Saber Monarch and Martial Monarch Huo Ling!

The people behind them were the elders of various factions, who were considered the authorities of the Middle Continent!

Why would such a terrifying group of authorities come to the Dragon Emperor Clan?

“HAHAHA!” Martial Monarch Huo Ling halted in the air and burst out laughing, “Nine-Tailed, it’s been a long time. You’re still as pretty as you ever! However, what does the Dragon Emperor Clan mean by this? Why did you activate the formation now that we’re here? Are we not welcomed?”

“I’m very disappointed in the Dragon Emperor Clan’s decision.” The Thousand Light Saber Monarch spat in a cold tone.

“Senior Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast, please deactivate the formation.”

“We’re here to have a friendly discussion with the Dragon Emperor Clan.”

The other elders took turns to speak.

The people of the Dragon Emperor Clan were clueless as to what had happened, but their faces became dark. It was obvious that their guests were not friendly at all.

“Fellow cultivators, it’s fine if you want to have a friendly gathering with us.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast said with an expressionless face, “However, once you enter, you will have to stay quiet, as our formation hates humans who speak too much the most.”

Following a wave, a gap slowly appeared in the barrier.

Martial Monarch Huo Ling, the Thousand Light Saber Monarch, and the others did not seem furious as they made their way to the dojo.

“Hehe, Nine-Tailed, let’s keep this simple. Many factions have sent their disciples to retrieve the half-Martial God’s succession. The Nightless Half-Martial God’s succession belongs to the final winner of the trial, but the treasure of the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch is not included. It’s better to share it with the other factions.”

The Thousand Light Saber Monarch said calmly, “Therefore, I suggest that we’ll let our disciples compete for it instead to decide its ownership. How does that sound?”

He was not suggesting it on behalf of the Heaven-Saber Sect, but the other thirty-four Two-Starred Factions of the Middle Continent instead!
