Chapter 731: Descending Upon Cangwu, Declaring War! (4000-character two-chapter merger)

(PS: The previous chapter has already been increased to 4000 characters)

Afterwards, Ding Xuan prepared to strike at the other's pride.

So he chuckled lightly: "Hahaha, Senior, you certainly have grand ambitions, to be able to utter such bold words. You should know that since the founding of Great Qin, no one has dared to claim they could subdue the noble clans and sects and turn the world into a one-man show!"

"But, times have changed."

"I presume you haven't yet learned of Great Qin's changes in recent years?"

"The Great Qin of today is long since a thing of the past......."

Hearing this, Nangong Zhantian's attention was swiftly drawn.

He raised an eyebrow, no longer bothering with recruitment, and immediately asked: "Oh? Could it be that in these years, that Yuwen Feng has had the fortune to step into the Primordial Spirit realm?"

In his view, the one most likely to pose a threat to him.

Was precisely that Imperial Preceptor Yuwen Feng, who was loyally devoted to Qin Wang, had suppressed countless factions, and exhausted a lifetime's effort to maintain Great Qin's stability!

But contrary to expectations, Ding Xuan shook his head: "No, all the changes come from the Jiang Clan of Cangwu!"

"If it were before, Yuwen Feng could naturally still be counted as Great Qin's number one expert."

"But now, the title of Great Qin's number one expert belongs to the Jiang Clan's clan leader: Jiang Daoxuan!"

"With him around, no matter how peerlessly powerful you are, Senior, at most you can only be relegated to second place."

At this point, Ding Xuan's voice paused slightly.

Then he glanced around, and under the gaze of everyone present, said in a low voice: "Ding Mou is untalented, but it is precisely because I work for Clan Leader Jiang that I encountered this opportunity and gained today's fortune!"

Hearing this, who among those present didn't understand that Ding Xuan dared to refuse the Old Ancestor's recruitment precisely because he already had the Jiang Clan of Cangwu at his back, and truly believed that his own Old Ancestor was no match for that Jiang Daoxuan!

Thinking of this.

In an instant, the crowd was enraged!

This Ding Xuan was truly arrogant—to drag out some unknown nobody they had never even heard of, and dare to assert that their Old Ancestor was no match for that Jiang Clan of Cangwu's clan leader!

At this moment, Lin Xing was also frightened out of his wits.

Then he raised his head and stared at the Prefecture Lord in disbelief.

He could never have imagined that at this point, the Prefecture Lord would still speak to provoke Nangong Zhantian.

Prefecture Lord, you should know the two of us are still at Changfeng Mountain—after saying so much, can we actually still make it out of here?

Although he knew the Jiang Clan of Cangwu was powerful.

But this was a case of distant water not quenching nearby fire.

If this Nangong Zhantian got angry out of humiliation.

This place would probably become their burial ground!

And at this moment, Nangong Zhantian did not get angry, he merely laughed out of exasperation.

"Truly a man of shallow vision, to dare presumptuously declare that I am no match for that man!"

"However, since you dare to say this Jiang Daoxuan's strength surpasses Yuwen Feng's and makes him Great Qin's number one, so be it—let me first test his mettle, and see whether, as you say, no matter how peerlessly powerful I am, I can only be relegated to second place before him........"

Now, his desire to fight Jiang Daoxuan had nothing to do with the matter of Ding Xuan.

After all, in his eyes.

This realm would eventually change its surname to Nangong, and all factions would need to submit beneath his feet!

So the fastest way to accomplish this step was undoubtedly to kill a chicken to scare the monkey—defeat Great Qin's number one and take his place!

Only thus could he spread his fame at the fastest speed, making countless factions feel awe and choose to surrender of their own accord!

Therefore, he had originally planned to defeat Yuwen Feng first.

But upon hearing Jiang Daoxuan was even stronger, he changed his target, preparing to strike at Jiang Daoxuan first.

As for worrying about being no match for the other?

Nangong Zhantian had never even considered this question.

After all, no matter how extravagantly Ding Xuan praised him, this Jiang Daoxuan was at most a Manifestation realm cultivator, no doubt about it!

After all, if the other were a Primordial Spirit realm mighty expert.

He would long since have changed Great Qin's dynasty—how could he possibly let Great Qin still sit on top of him?

Moreover, this Tiandou Prefecture was a lower-grade prefecture among Great Qin's thirty-six prefectures, and not particularly important.

Great Qin had Ding Xuan serve as the Tiandou Prefecture Lord, rather than the lord of some middle-grade or even upper-grade prefecture.

This showed that although Great Qin held the Jiang Clan of Cangwu in awe, it was still far from the kind of deterrence a Primordial Spirit realm cultivator should command!

Therefore, in his view.

This Jiang Daoxuan had at most a cultivation base of Manifestation realm ninth tier, on par with himself!

As long as their cultivation bases were equal, he could crush the other with his Sage bloodline, Ancestor's inheritance, and the Sacred Weapon Eight Wastes Sword!

With so many tremendous opportunities stacked in his favor, there was absolutely no possibility of failure!

Thinking of this, Nangong Zhantian glanced at Ding Xuan and said coldly:

"It's just right that after so many years, it's time I went out to stretch my limbs a bit."
