“Qin Nan! What you did has initially nothing to do with us, but you just have to abduct forty Peerless Geniuses in total, are you picking a fight with us too?”

The voice of the person was different than the others. It sounded utterly imperious, that each of his words could cause the place to tremble.

It was a Peerless Ruler of the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect!

Behind him were Meng Jiugong and the rest of the Supreme Elders. They were all wearing a grim look.

They had claimed that if forty Peerless Geniuses had failed to ascend in the Ancient Immortal place, everyone that had placed even a single bet would receive four times the amount they bet.

More than a hundred thousand cultivators had visited the Flowing Moon Dao City. Despite the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect’s outstanding wealth, it would serve as a severe blow to the faction too.

The whole Flowing Moon Dao City was still immersed in an uproar as the cultivators were all chanting Qin Nan’s name.

“Qin Nan, you’ve indeed given me a great gift!”

Meng Jiugong glared at Qin Nan. He was not too bothered by the loss, but the fact that his Flesh of Good Luck was actually suppressed by Qin Nan’s Flesh of Bad Fortune.

“The…the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect? Meng Jiugong?”

The Bliss Immortal Emperor, the Ground Spirit Immortal Emperor, and the Red Zither Immortal Emperor were dumbfounded.

They did not think Qin Nan would also step on the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect’s tail too.

Meng Jiugong was the son of a Nine Heavens Supreme, who would eventually inherit his father’s role as the Patriarch of the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect. Even they would not dare to be on bad terms with him.

The Immortal Emperors quickly collected their thoughts. Their lips were twisting vigorously.

Qin Nan’s boldness had completely exceeded their imagination. The Nine Heavens Immortal Realm had thirteen Supreme Daoism factions in total, yet he had already offended twelve of them!

If the mysterious Heaven-Repelling Ancient Sect had taken part in the Immortal Ancient place, wouldn’t Qin Nan simply offend them all?

“Seniors, are you seriously going to protect Qin Nan still?”

Heaven Immortal Wuchun and the Snow-Brow Heaven Immortal sneered.

The Supreme Elders of the rest of the Supreme Daoism factions immediately s.h.i.+fted their attention toward the three Peerless Rulers. Their eyes were burning in rage.

They realized that Qin Nan was only daring enough to stand against them because of the three Immortal Emperors.

“We…”

The Bliss Immortal Emperor and his crew opened their mouths, yet they were totally lost for words. They were no longer as imperious as before.

There was only a Peerless Ruler among the crowd. They could easily bring Qin Nan away if they insisted.

However, once they left, they would have to face the wrath of the twelve Supreme Daoism factions.

If a few of the Supreme Daoism factions decided to team up against them, they would suffer great losses too.

Qiu Hong, Xu Xianzhi, and the Blood-Eye Human Immortal were astounded.

They knew how extraordinary Qin Nan was, yet they never thought it would come down to this.

“We’re done for.”

Wan Xiao’s heart skipped a beat when he saw the looks on the three Immortal Emperor’s faces. He had just ascended not long ago, was he really going to die here?

“I am the one that decides if I’m going to release them, not the three seniors.”

Qin Nan remained fearless against the authorities. He first glanced at Meng Jiugong and the others.

“Are you implying that I’m not allowed to defeat the other Peerless Geniuses in the Immortal Ancient place? If the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect can’t afford to lose, then you shouldn’t set up the bet.”

Qin Nan rebuked without mercy.

“You…”

The Peerless Ruler and the Supreme Elders of the Nine Palace Golden Immortal Sect immediately glared at Qin Nan, yet they were unable to justify themselves.

They were the ones that came up with the rules in the bet. They could only blame themselves for the great losses they had made.

Even if Qin Nan had done it on purpose, if they were to put the blame on Qin Nan, it would surely damage their reputation significantly.

“We have messed up this time. We aren’t going to blame you for it, but we’re quite interested to see how you’re going to overcome this situation!”

Meng Jiugong harrumphed coldly.

He was now treating Qin Nan as his nemesis, yet he never wanted to use the power of his faction to destroy Qin Nan.

“Qin Nan, hand over Lin Qingpo and the others!”

“Qin Nan, you have three breaths’ time to decide!”

“Qin Nan…”

Heaven Immortal Wuchun, the Snow-Brow Heaven Immortal, Heaven Immortal Fanyin, and the rest of the authorities snapped furiously while executing several hand seals.

The atmosphere suddenly intensified.

The Bliss Immortal Emperor and the others stepped forward and stood behind Qin Nan.

Either way, they could not just stand on the side and watch Qin Nan die. Without him, they could not tell how long they had to wait for the existence inside the Supreme Cave Abode to wake up.

“Enough!”

Qin Nan demanded coldly.

Heaven Immortal Wuchun, the Snow-Brow Heaven Immortal, and the authorities were startled. None of them had expected Qin Nan to flare up instead.

“Your Peerless Geniuses have been picking on me many times in the World of Yang. Are you saying that I’m not allowed to return the favor?”

Qin Nan let out a hollow laugh, “Besides, your people are currently in my hands, yet you still dare to threaten me? Aren’t you worried that I’m going to kill every one of them right in front of you if you continue to provoke me!?”

A crimson-red light burst out of his body, followed by a murderous iciness.

“Don’t you dare!”

Heaven Immortal Wuchun, the Snow-Brow Heaven Immortal, and the others were startled.

“Why wouldn’t I dare to kill them? Since you are threatening to kill me, I don’t mind killing them too!”

Qin Nan’s eyes were engulfed in golden flames. He had a determined look in his face.

“Qin Nan, you…”

Heaven Immortal Wuchun and the others were stunned.

“What about me? I’m telling you, don’t even a.s.sume that I’m scared just because twelve Supreme Daoism factions are here. You are just asking me for a favor.”

Qin Nan said coldly, “I have no time to waste here. If you want me to let them go, you will swear an oath that you will not do any harm to me. On top of that, you will all escort me to the Sky Taihuang Sect so I can take part in the Battle of Strongest Immortal, and I will let your disciples go in return!”
