"Calm down." At this time, Qin Lang also interjected, most likely to let Hai Wu calm down. However, when Hai Wu saw that Qin Lang was merely a follower of Gu Qingxun, he immediately felt unhappy.
"Who are you? Do you think you have the right to speak here?!" Hai Wu snorted.
"Uh … I'm a true disciple of Penglai. Why don't I have the right to speak?" Qin Lang said seriously.
"You're just a true disciple! If you were a Holy Disciple of Penglai, you might have the right to speak. However, you're just a true disciple. Don't you know what kind of occasion this is?! "Hai Wu sneered.
"What kind of occasion can this be? This is the sect master's immortal ship. As a true disciple of Penglai, of course I have the right to speak. Wherever the sect master's immortal ship is, it's Penglai's territory! "Qin Lang said without giving in.
Hai Wu was furious. A mere true disciple of Penglai actually dared to be impudent in front of him. This was simply going against the heavens! After all, this was the endless sea. This was the territory of the Sea People Tribe. This Penglai disciple simply ate a bear's heart and leopard's gall. Therefore, Hai Wu emitted a murderous aura all over his body and enveloped Qin Lang.
If it wasn't for Gu Qingxun's identity, Hai Wu was afraid that he would have directly killed Qin Lang. This was also the usual style of the Sea People Tribe. However, Gu Qingxun was the sect master of Penglai. If he directly attacked Qin Lang in front of her, it would be equivalent to declaring war on Penglai Island. Therefore, Hai Wu could only release his murderous aura to deter Qin Lang.
If it were other cultivators, perhaps they would be deterred by Hai Wu's murderous aura. However, how could Qin Lang be deterred? Qin Lang had seen all kinds of situations. Although Hai Wu's cultivation was powerful, probably stronger than many of Penglai's Supreme Elders, he wasn't even a half-era overlord. How could he deter Qin Lang? Among the creatures of the higher planes of the universe, only the true Era Overlords could intimidate Qin Lang. Hai Yan and Hai Wu were definitely not among them.
Since he was "deterred" by Hai Wu's murderous aura, Qin Lang also pretended to be in pain but very persistent, making Hai Wu think that as long as he released a little more murderous aura, he could completely make Qin Lang surrender. So Hai Wu did so, but the stronger his murderous aura was, the stronger Qin Lang's persistence seemed to be.
As a result, Hai Wu's murderous aura became stronger and stronger, and so did Qin Lang's persistence. In the end, Hai Wu used all his strength, and Qin Lang seemed to be on the verge of collapse. However, he refused to collapse and persisted.
Hai Wu refused to give up. He released his murderous aura with all his might, hoping to kill Qin Lang completely. However, Hai Wu didn't expect Qin Lang to resist and not be defeated by his powerful murderous aura. This result obviously annoyed Hai Wu. A dignified elder of the Merfolk Tribe couldn't even suppress a true disciple of Penglai Island. This was really quite shameful! However, Hai Wu couldn't kill Qin Lang himself, even if he directly thought that he could kill Qin Lang.
"Why? Do you still want to show off in front of me?" At this time, Qin Lang pretended to gnash his teeth and stared at Hai Wu like a knife.
Hai Wu finally knew that he couldn't defeat Qin Lang with murderous aura alone. He snorted coldly and finally restrained the murderous aura around him. However, this result didn't comfort Hai Wu at all. Instead, he felt quite pained. If he had any other choice, he would definitely tear Qin Lang into pieces.
"Elder Hai Wu, since you've tested the cultivation of our Penglai disciple, then this matter should be over, right?" Gu Qingxun also knew that Hai Wu had secretly released his murderous aura towards Qin Lang. However, since Qin Lang had withstood it, she had nothing to worry about. In fact, in this confrontation, Penglai Island had the advantage in some aspects. After all, there was a huge difference in status between Qin Lang and Hai Wu. This time, Hai Wu released his murderous aura to suppress Qin Lang. If the news spread, then Hai Wu would definitely have a bad reputation of bullying the weak. As for Penglai Island, its reputation would definitely improve.
Hai Wu snorted softly and said, "A true disciple of Penglai Island can be considered to be quite capable."
In other words, he had acknowledged Qin Lang's cultivation.
Gu Qingxun didn't continue to dwell on this issue. Instead, she returned to the main topic. "Elders, I've already said this before. Please don't treat Penglai Island as your enemy because we're not your true enemy. At least not now! Moreover, the sea is endless. The sea is so vast that it can accommodate the oceanic race and our three great immortal mountains at the same time. Isn't it? "
"If the three great immortal mountains unite, it won't be beneficial to the oceanic race at all!" Hai Yan shook his head. Of course, he wouldn't think that the three great immortal mountains were here to help the oceanic race.
"I admit that if the three great immortal mountains truly unite, it will also be a threat to the oceanic race. However, we have a common enemy. This is the basis of our alliance. If the oceanic race doesn't have the necessary tolerance, then we won't be qualified to compete with Kunlun." Gu Qingxun directly pointed out the essence of the matter.
At the end of the day, whether it was the oceanic race or the three great immortal mountains, there was only one power that they truly feared — Kunlun! Only Kunlun! In this ancient Kunlun world, Kunlun was the Sword of Damocles above every sect. Every sect feared Kunlun's powerful strength, but they had no choice but to submit to Kunlun's many orders.
With a common enemy, there was indeed a basis for cooperation. However, the oceanic race was worried that after the three great immortal mountains became truly powerful, they would instead bring about a threat to the oceanic race. Therefore, Hai Yan said bluntly, "We're worried that after the three great immortal mountains become powerful, they'll point their spear at us. If that's the case, won't we be nurturing a tiger that will invite disaster?"
"Your worries are justified, but such a thing will not happen!" Gu Qingxun's tone was very certain.
"Can you guarantee it?"
"I can't guarantee it, and I can't guarantee it! However, if you let me go to Immortal Abode Island unimpeded, I can guarantee it! "Gu Qingxun's tone was very certain.
"Oh? You're that confident? "Hai Yan asked.
