Peerless Battle Spirit - Chapter 96

Chapter 96 - Baffled

Under Gong Yang’s lead, the three arrived at a well-decorated building with a courtyard .

As soon as Qin Nan stepped into the house, he could smell a pleasant odor, which was able to calm his thoughts and replenish his energy .

“Is this tea odor?” Qin Nan scanned the surroundings as he asked .

“Yeah, this place was designed by an inner disciple, which was specifically built for enjoying tea . ” Gong Yang smiled as he said, “Furthermore, the rooms here are encapsulated with forbidding auras . No one is able to eavesdrop without surpassing the Martial Emperor Realm . ”

While explaining, Gong Yang brought the two of them into a room .

The room was not big, around ten meters square wide . It was well decorated, especially the tea set placed on the wooden table . The cups which looked like crystals were arranged in a line, resembling the shape of a dragon .

Gong Yang sat on the first seat, and finished brewing a pot of tea with a well-practiced manner in just a short period of time .

Xiao Qingxue reached out her elegant fingers and grabbed hold of a cup . She took a sip from it, and glanced at Qin Nan, before saying in a seemingly angry tone, “Qin Nan, I never thought you would be so concealing—I was so worried about you . ”

Upon hearing this, Gong Yang too glanced toward Qin Nan; he was curious to know how his brother continued to make miracles happen .

“Senior Sister Qingxue, it’s not my fault,” Qin Nan laughed wryly, “I was being hunted by Ling Zixiao and his group, so I was forced to focus on improving my strength . What I didn’t expect was that I would be lucky enough to have fortunate encounters on the Island of Versatility, boosting my cultivation rapidly . ”

Upon hearing this, Gong Yang and Xiao Qingxue nodded their heads; they were quite convinced that this was the truth .

Qin Nan was only at the fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm before the Trial of Versatility took place, which improved rapidly to the eighth-layer Body Tempering Realm, in addition to mastering the Minor Success Stage of the Arcane Realm—it was impossible if he did not have any fortunate encounters .

Gong Yang let out a smile and said, “Let’s not worry about that . It’s time to split the pills now . ”

After saying this, Gong Yang flicked his finger, and ten jade jars landed before Xiao Qingxue .

Xiao Qingxue was slightly shocked, and was going to say something, before Gong Yang held his hand up and said, “You bet four thousand Martial Emperor Pills, so that means I would need to give you eight thousand in return . I decided to round it off, making it ten thousand in total . ”

After seeing this, Qin Nan stared with his eyes opened wide; he had not expected Gong Yang to have the personality of a wealthy parvenu .

Gong Yang then smilingly said to Qin Nan, “Qin Nan, it was with all of your contributions that I ended up winning so many pills . Besides that, as your Brother Yang, I shall not mistreat you . Here are thirty thousand Martial Emperor Pills . Feel free to spend it as you will . ”

After saying this, a total of thirty jade jars were placed in an orderly fashion before Qin Nan .

Qin Nan and Xiao Qingxue both held their breath after seeing this .

A total of thirty thousand Martial Emperor Pills, which was equivalent to three million Xiantian Pills!

Qin Nan in particular, was relatively poor; he would have leapt into the air in joy upon receiving a hundred thousand Xiantian Pills . Now that there were thirty thousand Xiantian Pills before him, it caused him to feel like passing out .

After a while, Qin Nan finally collected his thoughts and let out a wry smile, “Brother Yang, are you planning to scare me to death? You’ve won these Martial Emperor Pills because of your trust in me . I did not do anything unique . Of course, I will be willing to take it as a gift, but I’ll only take ten thousand Martial Emperor Pills . ”

Qin Nan did not hesitate; he waved his hand, taking ten jade jars away .

This was even when he was quite covetous of the thirty thousand Martial Emperor Pills, which would allow his Divine Battle Spirit to improve at an unbelievable rate . However, Qin Nan chose to hold his greed back, as he was not supposed to take them all since it was not his contribution .

He was only taking the ten thousand Martial Emperor Pills as there was no need to be too polite among brothers, and Gong Yang had won a total of seventy thousand Martial Emperor Pills .

Gong Yang’s eyes flickered with a sense of compliment, as he then said, “Alrighty, let’s make it that way . By the way, I’ll have to excuse myself—you two enjoy . ”

After saying this, Gong Yang instantly left the place without any hesitation .

This left Qin Nan and Xiao Qingxue speechless .

“Oh right, Qingxue, I did not use the Escape Orb which you gave me previously,” Qin Nan took the orb out and said with a wry smile, “I did tell you that I wouldn’t need this . ”

“Wasn’t I worried about your safety?” Xiao Qingxue rolled her eyes at him, and paused for a brief moment, before saying in a soft tone, “This Escape Orb, you should keep it . ”

Qin Nan was stunned for a moment, before he nodded his head and kept the orb in his pocket .

“Qin Nan, tell me; how many secrets are you still hiding?” Xiao Qingxue leaned forward and opened her attractive eyes wide, staring straight into Qin Nan’s .

It was the first time for Qin Nan to have such close interactions with Xiao Qingxue . He realized how attractive her facial features were—almost flawless—especially her flickering eyes, which absorbed his thoughts .

Qin Nan instinctively inhaled deeply, and captured a unique pleasant scent; he could not help but let out a cough, and avoided Xiao Qingxue’s gaze and said, “I don’t have any secrets . ”

“Is that so?” Xiao Qingxue was not satisfied hearing this answer .

Qin Nan glanced at her and thought for a moment; he then stood up and said, “Qingxue, one day, I’ll let you witness them with your own eyes . ”

Xiao Qingxue was stunned for a moment, before her big eyes turned into crescents, as a smile appeared on her face as she said, “Sure, I’ll wait . ”

Qin Nan realized the atmosphere was a bit weird, thus he quickly switched the topic, “Now that I’ve received so many pills, I’m planning to go into seclusion and cultivate . What about you?”

“I’ve accepted a task recently, so I’m afraid I have to leave the sect for a while . ” A sudden thought came to her, as she gave Qin Nan a death stare and said, “Even the outer domain of the Mystic Spirit Sect is full of talented disciples, you better control your temper . ”

“Ugh… Sure, will do . ” Upon seeing her expression, Qin Nan felt a sudden headache, as he instantly agreed .

“Good, this place is protected by a forbidding aura, you can start cultivating here . I’ll leave first . ” Xiao Qingxue did not stay any longer, she turned around and headed straight to the exit, creating a gust of a pleasant scent . Before she stepped out of the door, she glanced back at Qin Nan and said in a low tone, “Qin Nan, I’ll wait for you in the inner domain . ”

After saying this, Xiao Qingxue immediately ran off like a terrified rabbit .

After seeing such a behavior from her, Qin Nan was quite confused, What happened to her?

“Screw it, there’s no point of thinking about it . The most important thing now is to improve the Divine Battle Spirit!” Qin Nan took a deep breath, as his eyes were ignited with flames, “A hundred thousand Xiantian Pills from the sect, plus these Martial Emperor Pills which are equivalent to a million Xiantian Pills, summing up to a total of one million, one hundred thousand Xiantian Pills . I wonder how much you are able to improve?”

After saying this, nine golden rays appeared swiftly behind Qin Nan, as the Divine Battle Spirit was unleashed .
