Chapter 1267 - Aim for the Goose and Hit the Gander

"Qin Nan, why are you here?"

As Sorceress Qian Qian realized that the battle had ended, she quickly went up to Qin Nan with a shocked expression.

It was her first time meeting an old friend since coming to the half-God region.

"I'm here with a senior for a quest."

Qin Nan said smiling.

"Qin Nan?"

Before Sorceress Qian Qian could speak, the other three became aware of the unexpected stranger. Their gazes landed on Qin Nan's figure in astonishment.

Qin Nan's name was too well-known among the people of the half-God region.

They never thought they would stumble into him here.

Qin Nan glanced at them.

The woman among the three cultivators possessed a cultivation of the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm. Her facial features were sharp and her skin tone was pale. Her physique was rather outstanding, entirely displayed in the long dress she was wearing. Even though her face was icy, she had a different kind of charm.

As for the other two young men, they were both second-layer Martial Monarchs. The one that had shattered the rock titan had eyes that were particularly sharp, like swords. His aura had reached the peak of the second-layer Martial Monarch Realm.

They had to have achieved the Martial Monarch Realm over a hundred years ago.

"Qin Nan, allow me to introduce you; this is my Senior Sister, Magic Flower Martial Monarch. These two are Senior Brothers from the Martial Principle Sect, Martial Monarch Tianba and Martial Monarch Houxuan."

Sorceress Qian Qian quickly introduced them.

"Greetings."

Qin Nan brought his fists together.

The trio collected their thoughts. Magic Flower Martial Monarch cast a glance at Qin Nan in silence. It was clear that she had no intention of conversing with him. As for Martial Monarch Tianba, he nodded slightly without saying a word either.

As for Martial Monarch Haoxuan, his eyes flickered with disdain.

To them, they were startled when they first met Qin Nan, but the shock was soon gone after they calmed their thoughts.

Although Qin Nan had surpassed the rules of cultivation by having seven Martial Trees, which made him the strongest Martial Progenitor, the difference between themselves and him was like the distance between the sky and the earth.

Besides that, Qin Nan was a three-starred enemy of the South-Heaven Gate.

To an extent, if it weren't for Sorceress Qian Qian, they would quickly detain Qin Nan and hand him over to the South-Heaven Sacred Ground in exchange for great rewards.

Sorceress Qian Qian felt slightly awkward seeing this, not knowing what to say.

In her opinion, the others and Qin Nan were indeed from two different worlds.

"Have you seen Chen Zilai after coming to the half-God region?"

Qin Nan was not bothered by their reaction. He followed up with the question.

He was not particularly close to Sorceress Qian Qian. He was more concerned about Sage Chen Zilai.

"Chen Zilai…"

Sorceress Qian Qian was startled.

"Qin Nan, right? I'm happy to see that she has met an old friend, but I'm telling you, you shouldn't mention ants from the Middle Continent. It would destroy the atmosphere. You understand?"

The young man with the name Martial Monarch Haoxuan who shattered the rock titan before warned with a sharp gaze.

He was quite fond of Sorceress Qian Qian, thus he was aware that once in the Middle Continent, someone called Sage Chen Zilai had been extremely close to Sorceress Qian Qian.

Therefore, he had spoken to interrupt the conversation.

"Haoxuan is right, Qin Nan, watch your tongue."

Martial Monarch Tianba added calmly.

"Senior Brother, what are you talking about?"

Sorceress Qian Qian frowned.

Both Martial Monarch Haoxuan and Martial Monarch Tianba shrugged seeing her reaction. They fell silent, as they had already expressed their thoughts. If this Qin Nan insisted, they would not mind teaching him a lesson.

"Qin Nan, I'm sorry, I don't know where he went. I tried to search for him, but I couldn't find him."

Sorceress Qian Qian's expression dimmed.

Until now, she could still recall how Chen Zilai had taken the initiative to surrender in the battle against her, resulting in his Bodhi Heart crumbling.

"I see, if that's the case…"

Qin Nan nodded and was about to excuse himself.

He would not mind staying further if Sorceress Qian Qian were on her own, but with the other three there, he was not keen on staying any longer.

"Qin Nan, we've only met, and you're leaving already? We've discovered a place with treasure, why don't you come with us?"

Sorceress Qian Qian's eyes flickered with a glimpse of hope.

However, as soon as she finished her sentence, Magic Flower Martial Monarch spoke coldly, "Qian Qian, that won't be possible. That place is extremely dangerous. With his cultivation, he would be a burden to us."

Martial Monarch Haoxuan glanced at Qin Nan and added, "That's right, Qian Qian, it's dangerous even for us four Martial Monarchs. How would a Martial Progenitor make any difference?"

Martial Monarch Tianba nodded in agreement.

As a matter of fact, the place they were heading was not too dangerous. They could easily bring QIn Nan along.

However, as the Martial Monarchs of the Martial Principle Sect and the Jade-Lake Sacred Ground who were aiming to become the Supreme Elders of their sects, they would not want to waste too much time on a mere Martial Progenitor.

"But…"

Sorceress Qian Qian was hesitant.

"It's fine, Qian Qian, thanks for the offer. We'll meet again soon, I'll be going."

Qin Nan waved his hand and said with a smile.

He was not too interested in the place anyway. Even if they were keen to invite him, he would still decline the offer.

After all, the Sword God would be returning soon.

Martial Monarch Haoxuan, Martial Monarch Tianba, and Magic Flower Martial Monarch nodded.

This Qin Nan was well aware of his position.

However, an unexpected change took place.

Three formidable auras approached them at a tremendous pace like three ancient dragons. The whole place began to shake vigorously.

"Is that…"

It took the five by surprise, who immediately raised their heads.

Qin Nan's eyes glistened upon taking a glimpse.

He did not expect the three to be the people of the Star-Devouring Tribe who he had been looking for.

"Purple-golden runes, they have purple-golden runes, they are elders of the Star-Devouring Tribe!"

Martial Monarch Haoxuan, Martial Monarch Tianba, Magic Flower Martial Monarch, and Sorceress Qian Qian were astounded.

Each of the elders of the Star-Devouring Tribe possessed a strength equivalent to the third-layer Martial Monarch Realm.

The four of them had no chance against three third-layer Martial Monarchs.

"Wings of the Magic Deity, Concealing the Nine Heavens!"

Martial Monarch Haoxuan reacted swiftly. He quickly performed an ancient art to summon a pair of colorful wings, shrouding his group within them.

Within a breath's time, their figures completely vanished into thin air. Not a hint of their presence remained.
