Chapter 1337 - Arriving in Sequence

Qin Nan did not expect to b.u.mp into Gong Yang at this place.

He initially thought that the next time they met, it would be at least after they had both achieved the Martial Monarch Realm.

"That guy is dead for sure..."

The surrounding cultivators shook their heads upon seeing this. A Martial Progenitor had no chance of surviving being hunted by a Martial Monarch.

"Die!"

Qin Nan collected his thoughts. His eyes became cold as the monarch heart inside him beat ferociously.

Gong Yang was his brother. He would not allow anyone to kill him.

"Qin Nan, stay calm..."

The Sun and Moon Sword G.o.d straightened his face and transmitted his voice as soon as he realized something was amiss.

"Senior Sword G.o.d, he's my brother. Even if it means exposing myself, I would still do it. I'm sorry."

Qin Nan was determined to interfere.

He was clearly aware that by involving himself, the people of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground and others would set their eyes on him, placing him in danger.

But what difference would it make?

He was willing to risk his life for his brother.

At the last moment, an unexpected change took place.

BANG!

Somewhere in the distance, a pitch-black saber intent slashed in the direction of the Martial Monarch in the black robe at a shocking pace.

The saber intent was sinisterly murderous and terrifying, which was equivalent to the attack of a fourth-layer Martial Monarch.

"Who's there?"

The Martial Monarch in the black robe was startled. He immediately withdrew his attack and backed off, before staring into the distance with a look of anger.

He did not expect someone to interfere with the great opportunity he had.

"Some other Martial Monarch is involved?"

The cultivators who had shaken their heads initially were stunned.

"A mere third-layer Martial Monarch dares to act scornfully here."

Following a cold voice, a figure stepped out from the rift.

The person was carrying a black saber, with cold eyes and his black robe flapping without the presence of wind. The rift close to him was shattered by his tremendous murderous intent.

It was extraordinary to see someone possess such condensed murderous intent.

"Huh?"

Jiang Kongzhou who was wearing a cold expression and Li Qimo were astounded when they saw the figure.

"Isn't he one of the successors of the G.o.dly Exterminator Forbidden Ground, ranked sixteenth on the Genius Martial Monarchs Ranking, Tang Qingshan?"

"It's him, I heard that his murderous intent is absolutely terrifying. There will be deaths wherever his black saber points. Last time, he even killed over twenty inner disciples and a Martial Monarch of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground."

"That's right, many from the Jade-Lake Sacred Ground, Martial Principle Sect, and G.o.d Beast Forbidden Ground were killed by him too. He has become an enemy of those factions."

The cultivators in the surroundings, including Blood Rune, Qilin Flame, Vast Skythunder, and the others were astounded too.

They had long heard of Tang Qingshan's infamous name.

"Tang Qingshan?"

Gong Yang was startled. He never thought the person helping him would be Tang Qingshan.

However, on second thought, it was quite reasonable, as Tang Qingshan knew the relations.h.i.+p between him and Qin Nan.

"Tang Qingshan, why are you interfering? This is something to do with the Nine Words Ancient Sea. It's none of the G.o.dly Exterminator Forbidden Ground's business..."

The Martial Monarch in the black robe blurted out.

"I'll kill you when I feel like it. There's no reason needed. Die."

Before he could finish, Tang Qingshan descended upon the Martial Monarch and fired countless streams of saber intents without drawing out the black saber.

The cultivators were stunned by the sight of it, which sent chills down their spines.

Black Saber Tang Qingshan was living up to his reputation.

"Senior Brother is here."

Qin Nan halted in his track and withdrew his murderous intent with flickering eyes.

Gong Yang was safe since Tang Qingshan had appeared. There was no need for him to expose himself.

"It seemed like the process of choosing the successor for the Nine Words Ancient Sea isn't as calm as I thought. By the way, Senior Brother's cultivation has reached the fourth-layer Martial Monarch Realm..."

Qin Nan's calmed his thoughts and fell into a ponder.

"Tang Qingshan, your cultivation might be strong, but you should just mind your own business! We won't show you any mercy!"

An icy voice exploded in the air all of a sudden.

Three figures sprang into the sky from one of the fiery mountains, who unleashed shocking Monarch Arts aiming at Tang Qingshan.

They were two young men and a young woman, each with a third-layer Martial Monarch Realm aura, with a magical power inside their body. Their strength significantly surpa.s.sed that of ordinary Martial Monarchs.

"Aren't they the successors of the Nine Words Ancient Sea; Wu Hong, ranked twenty-second; Ling Po, ranked twenty-fourth; and Si Zhaoxue, ranked twenty-ninth?"

"What? Even those three are here?"

"Gasp, there are only two left and all the successors of the Nine Words Ancient Sea are here!"

The cultivators in the surroundings were astounded. Even Jiang Kongzhou and Li Qimo were fairly shocked.

They did not expect most of the successors of the Nine Words Ancient Sea would appear here and were about to fight against Tang Qingshan.

After all, it was rare to see Martial Monarchs ranked in the top thirty on the Genius Martial Monarchs Ranking fight seriously against one another.

"The other three successors of the Nine Words Ancient Sea?"

Qin Nan's gaze instantly turned sharp.

Judging from the circ.u.mstances, it was likely that those three were the ones planning the conspiracy, leading Gong Yang to be hunted by the Martial Monarch in the black robe.

"Show me no mercy? You all shall die."

Tang Qingshan's expression remained the same, yet his murderous intent grew thicker. The black saber on his back began to buzz slightly and emit an intimidating, crimson glow.

Now that the trio had appeared, the blood in his body began to boil too. They were worthy enough for him to draw out his saber.

"You're going to kill them all? Oh, Tang Qingshan, they are people of the Nine Words Ancient Sea. According to the rules, we of the G.o.dly Exterminator Forbidden Ground are not allowed to interfere with their business. Are you completely ignoring the rules?"

As the battle was about to erupt, a burst of cold laughter echoed in the sky.

Following these words, the s.p.a.ce and the ground began to crack open and spread into the surroundings. The atmosphere greatly intensified.

The scenery had already changed before the person arrived.

"Is that..."

Jiang Kongzhou and Li Qimo's eyes widened as they realized something.

It was their first time showing such a reaction after arriving at the Dao Origin Heavenly Mountain.
