Chapter 732

"Take me to the Jiang clan of Cangwu. If the man you speak of can truly defeat me, then I shall take it upon myself to allow you to bring your wife and children to our Nangong clan."

"But if I defeat that man, then from now on you will obediently serve our Nangong clan…"

Hearing this, Ding Xuan, knowing his plan had succeeded, could not help but let out a breath of relief.

Immediately after, an immense joy welled up within him.

After all, in his heart, the Jiang Clan Leader was an invincible existence, like a god!

Nangong Zhantian?

A mere Wanxiang, daring to be so ignorant of the heavens and the earth, attempting to challenge the Clan Leader.

This truly is blind confidence, seeking his own death!

Then, afraid the other party might go back on his word, Ding Xuan immediately agreed readily: "A word once spoken, and four horses cannot chase it down. I shall take you to Cangwu Mountain right now to meet with the Clan Leader!"

Having said this, he immediately gave Lin Xing a look, telling him to set his mind at ease.

Their eyes met. Lin Xing's brow relaxed, and he stretched out his right hand to wipe the cold sweat from his head.

A feeling of having narrowly escaped death suddenly arose in his heart.

The Prefect truly is the Prefect—to think he could come up with this method, creating an opportunity for us to safely leave the mountain, and even going one step further by inviting the Jiang Clan Leader over directly.

The more wildly Nangong Zhantian laughs today, the more miserably he will weep when the time comes.

At this moment, seeing that the Old Ancestor was about to personally head to the Jiang clan's Cangwu residence, Nangong Feiyu hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "From childhood until now, I have grown up listening to the legends of your deeds. Since you have broken through once more, I wish to follow the Old Ancestor to Cangwu Mountain to witness your brilliance. I beg the Old Ancestor to grant my request!"

Having never seen the Old Ancestor take action, he naturally felt immense curiosity about the Old Ancestor's strength.

Now that an opportunity to see the other party in action had finally come, he naturally could not miss it.

As soon as his words fell, the surrounding crowd all reacted in unison.

No one wished to miss this opportunity.

Thus, they echoed one after another: "We wish to follow the Old Ancestor to Cangwu. We beg the Old Ancestor to grant our request!"

Seeing the situation, Nangong Zhantian nodded slightly.

Casually selecting three high-ranking members of the clan from among them, along with Nangong Feiyu, the Clan Leader: "You all shall come with me."

With this outcome, for a moment, those clan members who had not been chosen all showed looks of dejection.

And those who had been chosen, at the thought that they were about to have the chance to witness with their own eyes a peak battle of the cultivation world of the Great Qin Dynasty, could not help but feel a surge of excitement, wishing they could head there right this instant!

At this moment, Nangong Zhantian paid no heed to the crowd's delight.

He merely calmly turned his head, looked toward Ding Xuan, and said in a deep voice: "Let's go."

At this point, he could hardly wait to cross hands with that Jiang Clan Leader, to prove himself, to let all under heaven know who the true number one of Great Qin truly was!

Hearing this, Ding Xuan, seeing the timing was ripe, did not dare hesitate any longer, and immediately nodded and chose to leave.

Meanwhile, Lin Xing, Nangong Zhantian, Nangong Feiyu, and the others chose to follow.

Not long after.

Near Cangwu Mountain.

The figures of Nangong Zhantian and the others swept through the high skies one after another!

Seeing Cangwu Mountain drawing closer and closer, a glint flickered in Nangong Zhantian's eyes, and he could not help but reveal a mocking smile:

"So this is Cangwu Mountain? The place where that Great Qin's number one, Jiang Daoxuan, resides? If I had not seen it with my own eyes, it would truly be a great disappointment, and hard to believe!"

"The scenery here is so ordinary. Jiang Daoxuan, as Great Qin's number one and the head of a clan, how could he bring his people to huddle in such a place?"

"If it were me, I would surely seize the number one ranked famous mountain in Great Qin for its spiritual energy density, and make it the new residence of our Nangong clan. How strange—how could this Jiang Clan Leader's vision be so narrow?"

"Not considering the long term, rashly choosing this Cangwu Mountain as the residence, and never once changing it—this is baffling…"

Nangong Zhantian thought to himself.

In his view, the scale and environment of this Cangwu Mountain were not even a match for the Changfeng Mountain where their Nangong clan resided.

After all, although this Cangwu Mountain could barely be considered a famous mountain in the vicinity of Wudan City,

when placed within the borders of Tiandou Prefecture, it appeared rather ordinary.

If one looked across all thirty-six prefectures, the gap would undoubtedly be even greater!

Therefore, this utterly unremarkable Cangwu Mountain was wholly unworthy of Jiang Daoxuan's status as Great Qin's number one!

Thinking of this, Nangong Zhantian shook his head.

Toward this enemy he had not yet met, he could not help but feel a measure of contempt.

He even felt he already had victory firmly in hand, that he would surely win, step on the other party to rise, and become the new number one of Great Qin!

He could even do better—become the number one of the Nine Nations!

Then, amid his thoughts, Nangong Zhantian had already followed Ding Xuan and arrived at the Shanmen of Cangwu Mountain.

He swept a glance ahead.

Relying on his powerful Wanxiang-level cultivation base, he instantly saw through the cultivation base of these people.

They were basically all cultivators below the Yuanhai realm, completely not worth mentioning.

The only one who could slightly pique his interest was the burly man at the gate.

"Although the fluctuation of this aura is only at the Moon Wheel level, its essence is somewhat special. Could this person possess a special constitution?"

"Using a Moon Wheel realm cultivator with a special constitution as a mountain guardian? It seems this Cangwu Jiang clan is not without its merits…"

At the Cangwu Jiang clan's grand gesture, Nangong Zhantian felt some surprise.

One must know that before he went into closed-door cultivation, he himself had only possessed a cultivation base of the sixth layer of the Moon Wheel realm.

He was probably only a little stronger than the mountain guardian before him.

After his surprise, Nangong Zhantian suddenly had some more thoughts.

"Possessing a special constitution, and having cultivated to the Moon Wheel realm—such a fine talent, if used only to guard the gate, would be something of a waste. Once I publicly defeat that Jiang Daoxuan, I can extend an invitation to him to serve our Nangong clan…"

Thinking of this, Nangong Zhantian's eyes lit up.

For him, the current Nangong family simply had too few usable hands, which was why he had been trying every method to recruit people for the clan.

After all, once the Great Qin was destroyed and a new dynasty established—

—then by that time, no amount of talent would be enough.

Naturally, the more the better now; he absolutely could not let anyone slip away.

As for worrying that this burly man with a special physique would refuse?

He had never even considered that question.

After all, the man had been banished by the Cangwu Jiang clan to guard the gate, so clearly he had never been given any important position.

In fact, the other's heart had long been full of accumulated grievances.

Under such circumstances, recruiting him was entirely a matter of course—no surprises would arise!

On the other side.

Nangong Feiyu, who had not yet noticed anything amiss, was startled in his heart upon hearing the ancestor's lament.

He himself, as the head of a clan, only had a cultivation base at the ninth level of the Star Wheel realm.

Yet this gatekeeper before the Cangwu Jiang clan's Shanmen actually possessed a cultivation base far surpassing his own.

This stark contrast gave rise to an immense sense of disparity in Nangong Feiyu's heart.

But fortunately, now that the ancestor had emerged, the entire situation would be reversed!

And our Nangong family would surely welcome an unprecedented glory!

Before long, I, Nangong Feiyu, will also be able to obtain an opportunity and set foot in the Moon Wheel realm!

Even breaking through to the Sun Wheel realm would not be an extravagant hope!

At this moment, Ding Xuan looked toward Zhao Hu before the Shanmen, preparing to walk a few steps and announce the arrival of Nangong Zhantian.

But before he could even take a step—

—Nangong Zhantian had already seen through his intention, and immediately shook his head: "No need for such trouble, let me do it!"

Having said this, under the astonished gazes of the crowd, he instantly rose and vanished into the sky.

Hovering high in the air.

Nangong Zhantian slowly lowered his head, looking down upon the earth with the commanding posture of a king overlooking all below!

Gazing at the now-tiny Cangwu Mountain below, he declared loudly: "I am Nangong Zhantian. I have long heard of the fame of Jiang Clan Leader, and today I have come here specifically to seek a battle with you, to determine who is superior!"

"Jiang Daoxuan, where are you?!"

The moment these words left his mouth, they sounded like exploding thunder; the rumble of thunder rolled outward, spreading in all directions and swiftly sweeping across the entirety of Cangwu Mountain!

And disturbed by this voice, the many clansmen of the Jiang family all felt utterly astonished!
