Pleased to meet me?
Wu Qianfan looked at Nangong Jingyun and thought to himself, “Meeting you does not please me in the slightest.”
Nangong Jingyun said, “Prince of the Great Zhou, I would like to ask you, our Chaos Sacred Land’s Yao Meng is dead. Do you know who killed her?”
Wu Qianfan remained silent.
At this point, Tuoba Yunhe and the other Saints grew impatient and spoke one after another.
“Boy, tell me, who killed Tuoba Xiong?”
“How did my grandson An Ruoxi die?”
“What exactly happened inside the Undying Mountain? Who killed Li Beihai?”
“Jiang Wudao was the third holy son of our Yin-Yang Sect, invincible in the Cave Heaven realm. Who exactly ambushed him?”
Each word rang out like thunder.
The void trembled endlessly.
On the ground, the cultivators were scared out of their wits, terrified that the Saints might slaughter them all in a fit of rage.
“I say, you old fellows have lived this long, yet your patience is so poor?”
“Can you not wait a moment?”
“You are being so fierce, be careful not to frighten the juniors.”
Nangong Jingyun cast a sideways glance at the several Saints, then took a lotus step and appeared in front of Wu Qianfan with a whoosh.
Instantly, Wu Qianfan was confronted by a deep white ravine.
“So deep!”
Wu Qianfan was shocked to discover that his body was reacting strangely. He cursed himself inwardly, “Wu Qianfan, have you no shame! This woman is older than your grandmother, yet you still react?”
Although he scolded himself, he could not help stealing another glance. Truly…
Breathtaking.
“Good-looking?” Nangong Jingyun asked softly with a charming smile.
In that instant, Wu Qianfan felt his bones turn to jelly.
It was not as though he had never seen women. On the contrary, as a prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he had encountered countless peerless beauties. Yet for some reason, this older woman kept stirring improper thoughts in him.
In truth, Wu Qianfan did not understand that a mature beauty like Nangong Jingyun possessed a fatal attraction to young men.
Nangong Jingyun noticed where his eyes lingered. Far from being angry, she felt secretly pleased. At her age, she could still captivate a young junior like Wu Qianfan. The feeling was rather wonderful.
Of course, Wu Qianfan was different from the previous cultivator. Not only was he young, he was also handsome and dashing, the kind Nangong Jingyun genuinely liked.
Nangong Jingyun leaned forward slightly, causing the already profound ravine to become utterly bottomless, seemingly on the verge of bursting forth.
Wu Qianfan’s eyes widened.
“Good-looking?” Nangong Jingyun smiled faintly.
Wu Qianfan hurriedly averted his gaze, his face flushed with embarrassment.
“Oh my, blushing?” Nangong Jingyun giggled coquettishly. “I never would have guessed, you are quite the little cutie.”
From the void, the Wuji Heavenly Venerable said coldly, “Nangong Jingyun, stop flirting and get on with the questioning.”
“Heavenly Venerable, why the rush? He is not going anywhere.” Nangong Jingyun rolled her eyes at him, then turned to Wu Qianfan. “Little cutie, you can see how fierce they are.”
“If you do not confess honestly, they definitely will not let you off.”
“Although big sister wants to protect you, I cannot take on all of them alone. So you had better tell us what you know.”
“Rest assured, as long as you tell us what really happened inside the Undying Mountain and who killed those heavenly geniuses, big sister guarantees your life will be safe.”
Wu Qianfan knew full well that, given the current situation, he could no longer remain silent.
If he said nothing, once these Saints lost patience they would certainly erase him.
Although he was a prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, in the eyes of Saints he was no more than an ant.
“Prince of the Great Zhou, my patience is limited. Hurry and tell me who killed Li Beihai,” demanded Li Zhaohui, Grand Elder of the Primordial Sacred Land.
Wu Qianfan took a deep breath and said, “It was Jiang Wudao and Ling Menghan who killed Li Beihai.”
Hm?
Upon hearing this, the several Saints instinctively glanced at the Wuji Heavenly Venerable. Li Zhaohui’s eyes blazed with particular fury.
The Wuji Heavenly Venerable said indifferently, “Boy, do not speak nonsense.”
“I am not speaking nonsense,” Wu Qianfan replied. “Jiang Wudao and Ling Menghan discovered a divine beast. Li Beihai said he would help them capture it, but during the capture he suddenly attacked Ling Menghan, wanting to make her his dao companion.”
“Therefore, Jiang Wudao and Ling Menghan joined forces and killed Li Beihai.”
“So that is how it was.” The Wuji Heavenly Venerable nodded. “It seems Li Beihai deserved to die.”
Li Zhaohui pointed at Wu Qianfan and roared, “Utter rubbish! I know Li Beihai’s character perfectly well. He was absolutely not a lecher.”
Wu Qianfan shrugged. “Whether you believe it or not is up to you, senior. That is what I saw.”
“You—” Li Zhaohui was about to continue when An Zaitian cut him off.
“Boy, tell me who killed my grandson.”
Tuoba Yunhe followed, “I too wish to know who killed my grandson Tuoba Xiong.”
Wu Qianfan let out a long sigh. “Alas…”
“Why do you sigh?” asked An Zaitian.
Wu Qianfan answered, “I sigh because An Ruoxi and Tuoba Xiong died truly miserable deaths.”
The faces of An Zaitian and Tuoba Yunhe changed dramatically. They shouted, “What exactly happened?”
Wu Qianfan said, “The Prince of Great Wei, Wei Wuji, the heir of Great Qian’s War God family, Cao Mao, and Pei Gang of the Soul-Severing Sect joined forces and killed An Ruoxi and Tuoba Xiong.”
“Tuoba Xiong was beaten by Cao Mao until not even his bones remained. As for An Ruoxi, his combat strength was great. He killed Pei Gang, yet he still could not withstand Wei Wuji and Cao Mao.”
“After killing An Ruoxi, Wei Wuji and Cao Mao even roasted and ate the demonic snake he had raised.”
What!
Tuoba Yunhe and An Zaitian shook with rage. Terrifying killing intent poured from them. In an instant, winds howled, clouds surged, the temperature plummeted, and everyone felt as though they had been plunged into a vast ice cellar.
“What a fine Prince of Great Wei, to dare kill my grandson. The Great Wei Dynasty and I are now irreconcilable,” An Zaitian bellowed.
Tuoba Yunhe looked up at the sky and declared, “Xiong’er, rest assured. Grandfather will avenge you. I will kill Wei Wuji and Cao Mao, and raze both the Great Wei Dynasty and the Great Qian Dynasty to the ground.”
The killing intent radiating from the two Saints was utterly horrifying. Wu Qianfan felt his bones were about to shatter as his body trembled uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Nangong Jingyun stepped forward, grasped Wu Qianfan’s arm, and asked, “Feeling better?”
In that instant, Wu Qianfan no longer felt the slightest trace of killing intent. All he felt was as though an enormous mountain were pressing against his arm.
Incredibly supple.
Nangong Jingyun gently rubbed against Wu Qianfan’s arm and asked with a smile, “Like it?”
