Chapter 2328: Insist on Killing
"He's asking for a favor now?"
The cultivators wondered if they had heard it wrong.
It was a chance to ask a Heaven Highness for a.s.sistance!
It was pretty much a chance to guarantee one's safety in emergencies!
But Qin Nan was going to waste it now?
Even though Qin Nan was being picked on by Huangpu Shaoqi and the others, his status had changed completely after he handed in the Four-Way Dragon Pattern.
Qin Nan just had to tell the Hall Leader of the Heavenly Art Palace what they did and he would punish them accordingly. It was unnecessary to waste the precious chance on it!
"Lin...Lin Xiaozhi, what are you trying to do? I'm telling you, I'm a core disciple of the Curved Swords, and my father is the Vice Patriarch. If you dare to do anything reckless, my father won't forgive you!" Huangpu Shaoqi snarled, although his voice was trembling a little at first.
"Young man, are you sure about this?"
The magnificent illusion took a quick glance around and said, "If they offended you, the Hall Leaders will teach them a lesson on your behalf. There's no need to waste a chance for it."
Qin Nan's decision was in the Dragon Island Heaven Highness' favor. The Heaven highness would only owe Qin Nan two more favors.
However, he had given his piece of advice because he had a good impression of Qin Nan.
"Thank you senior for your advice, but I've made up my mind."
Qin Nan shook his head.
It was true that using the chance to let Heaven Highness Dragon Island take out Huangpu Shaoqi was going to be a waste.
However, if he did not settle it here, he had no idea how much longer it would continue to drag on.
Besides, if he relied too much on the Heaven Highness' protection, he would not feel any sense of danger which would put him under pressure to improve his strength quickly.
"Fine, what do you want me to do?" the magnificent figure asked.
"Kill them two. As for him, I'll let you take care of him according to your will."
Qin Nan pointed at Huangpu Shaoqi and Zhang Yu'er first before pointing at Deacon Ye.
"Lin Xiaozhi, you..."
The eyes of Huangpu Shaoqi, Zhang Yu'er, and Deacon Ye widened.
"Understood!"
The magnificent figure did not waste any time. He flicked his finger and fired a brilliant ray into Deacon Ye's body.
Deacon Ye's face contorted as he let out cries of agony.
Wounds surfaced on his body. Fresh blood sprayed around him.
It was not appropriate for Heaven Highness Dragon Island to kill his subordinate in front of the crowd, thus he inflicted serious injuries on Deacon Ye. He would remain in pain for the next two years.
"Your turn now."
The magnificent figure waved his hand.
BANG!
The rift above Huangpu Shaoqi and Zhang Yu'er shattered into pieces. Strong energy was pouring out from it.
Huangpu Shaoqi and Zhang Yu'er subconsciously unleashed their power to defend themselves, but their defense was overwhelmed by the force in less than a second.
"Xiaozhi, it's my fault. Please spare my life this time considering our relations.h.i.+p before."
The fear of death had overwhelmed Zhang Yu'er. She immediately transmitted her voice, but she was crushed into pieces after failing to resist the force before she could finish her sentence.
Qin Nan had no intention to spare her life after she betrayed Lin Xiaozhi and tried to kill him.
She must suffer the consequences of her own decision.
"Lin Xiaozhi, you..."
Huangpu Shaoqi's eyes were filled with fear. However, he was a Ruler of Dao in the Greater Success Stage. He was not going to die so quickly, nor would he be overwhelmed so easily.
"Father, save me!"
He let out a roar when he was almost at his limit.
Whoos.h.!.+
A huge figure emerged from his back. Its shocking aura surged across the place like a terrifying storm.
The force Heaven Highness Dragon Island had unleashed casually was shattered too.
"That's...Heaven Highness Sword River!" the crowd blurted out.
The Nine Heavens Supremes and Peerless Rulers s.h.i.+vered in fear under pressure from the two Heaven Highnesses.
"Senior Dragon Island, what have my son done to make you so angry that you have to kill him here?" Heaven Highness Sword River brought his fists together and said respectfully.
There were differences in strength between Heaven Highnesses too.
Heaven Highness Dragon Island had already achieved the peak Heaven Highness Realm more than a hundred years ago. He was ranked at the top of the Heaven Highness Ranking. He was standing at the top among the cultivators of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.
Heaven Highness Sword River might be the Vice Patriarch of the Curved Swords, but his status was still inferior to Heaven Highness Dragon Island.
"You may ask this young man," Heaven Highness Dragon Island said.
Heaven Highness Sword River looked at Qin Nan in surprise.
"Father, he's an inner disciple of our faction, Lin Xiaozhi. He has obtained the succession of the Heaven Highness. I wanted him to give it up, but he was unwilling. I couldn't help but teach him a lesson. However, he managed to find the Four-Way Dragon Pattern and..." Huangpu Shaoqi transmitted his voice.
Heaven Highness Sword River looked at his son coldly. He was well aware of his son's methods. There was no way he was only going to teach Lin Xiaozhi a lesson.
"So you are Lin Xiaozhi."
Heaven Highness Sword River said with a smile, "Since you both are from the same faction, why must you be killing one another? I know my arrogant son has done something bad to you. I apologize to you on his behalf. I shall punish him accordingly after we go back."
"In addition to it, I will suggest the Patriarch make you a core disciple and let you cultivate in the Boundless Curve Realm for a year. What do you think?"
Heaven Highness Sword River added, "Of course, young man, we will not try to get back at you again once we are back in the Curved Swords, so don't you worry about that."
Many cultivators nodded in agreement.
Heaven Highness Sword River had compromised greatly. It seemed like the farce was coming to an end.
However, Qin Nan chuckled.
Did he think he could call it off so easily after what Huangpu Shaoqi did?
"Young man, I think we should stop here," Heaven Highness Dragon Island transmitted his voice.
"Senior, do you not dare to kill him? If that's the case, let's call it off," Qin Nan said.
"I don't dare to kill him? What a joke! He's only a Heaven Highness' son. He's no threat to me!"
Heaven Highness Dragon Island said imperiously, "However, I'm concerned about you. If you offend Heaven Highness Sword River now, the path ahead won't be easy for you."
Qin Nan stopped transmitting his voice. He looked at Heaven Highness Sword River and said, "I'm sorry, it's only going to end after either of us is dead."
"I have to kill him."
