As to why Qin Wentian was so confident in Mu Feng, it was naturally because of his proficiency in poison. Once, he had personally witnessed Mu Feng killing people without them noticing. Even he himself had been poisoned by Mu Feng before.
Back then on the Heavenly Fate Rankings platform, Si Qiong's combat prowess clearly surpassed Mu Feng's. But in the end, although he won, he paid a heavy price and was almost killed by Mu Feng's poison. Si Qiong was someone who could cause others to tremble in fear. Even those whose combat prowess was much stronger than him would easily die in his hands. This was especially so under the circumstances where they didn't know what type of poison he was proficient in.
Not only that, Mu Feng's personality had changed, becoming colder and colder. Now that he had obtained the inheritance of the Blood Emperor, he would only grow stronger.
Hence, when Qin Wentian saw Mu Feng being suppressed in every aspect, he still felt that Mu Feng would definitely die in his hands. And the truth was indeed so. At the very end, Mu Feng managed to kill Si Qiong, allowing him to retreat unscathed.
Upon hearing Mu Feng say that the girl who dragged him along all those years ago had also died, Qin Wentian could only sigh in his heart. He lightly nodded his head, "Fine, you can follow me from now on."
Mu Feng didn't say anything more, he quietly walked to the back of Qin Wentian, like a shadow. If one didn't pay attention, it was as though he didn't exist at all.
Ye Kongfan didn't expect such a situation to occur. He initially wanted to recruit Mu Feng, yet Mu Feng couldn't even be bothered with him, choosing to follow Qin Wentian instead. This was the very same Qin Wentian whom they had a grudge against earlier.
Without a doubt, this made Ye Kongfan hate Qin Wentian even more.
Those from the Battle Sword Sect and Medicine Sovereign Valley also felt their hearts trembling. They didn't expect that the delicate-looking young man beside Mo Qingcheng would have such a side to him. His cultivation base was only at the peak of the fourth level of Heavenly Dipper, yet a character like Mu Feng didn't even consider Ye Kongfan's invitation, choosing to follow him instead.
This caused them to reevaluate Qin Wentian. The Holy Maiden of the Medicine Sovereign Valley, Qing'er, was deeply in love with him. Not only that, the Battle Sword Sect also knew that a similarly beautiful Qing'er existed beside Qin Wentian.
Ye Lingshuang thought of how Qin Wentian comprehended fourteen sword strikes in just five days. She couldn't help but silently speculate in her heart. Most probably, none of them truly understood Qin Wentian. What had he done in the desolate Grand Xia?
This caused Qin Wentian to gradually become more and more mysterious in their hearts.
After all, for a woman like Mo Qingcheng, just based on her beauty, even if she didn't have the status of the Holy Maiden of the Medicine Sovereign Valley, she would still be the moon surrounded by stars. And for a terrifying character like Mu Feng, no matter what relationship he had with Qin Wentian, he was still willing to follow Qin Wentian. Not only that, the Battle Sword Sect sent out so many experts to the Xuan King City, including Senior Lin Shuai and an important elder under Sword Sovereign Ling Tian, yet they only brought back two people. One was Qing'er, and the other was Qin Wentian. Could there be more than meets the eye?
Back then, how heavily injured was Mo Qingcheng? Who was it that sent her to the Medicine Sovereign Valley? Who was it that personally treated her? Even the Medicine Sovereign had to expend a great deal of energy in order to treat her? Who had the face to do so? After all, when Mo Qingcheng was heavily injured, it was impossible to tell her talent. One could only say that the person who sent her to the Medicine Sovereign Valley was extraordinary.
Ye Lingshuang wasn't a fool. The more she thought about it, the more shocked she felt. She cast a deep glance at Qin Wentian beside her. There were many people in the Battle Sword Sect who weren't ordinary. Naturally, they would also think that this junior brother of theirs was different from the rest.
However, those from the Violet Thunder Sect wouldn't think so much. Right now, they only felt that they had lost all face. This was especially so when they had the absolute advantage today, yet they were in such a predicament. This was something they couldn't accept.
Ye Kongfan's eyes flickered with coldness. Beside him, a figure stood up. Momentarily, the gazes of Qin Wentian and the others all turned to him.
"Everyone!" A loud shout rang out. This person's voice was like thunder, shaking the entire battlefield. Momentarily, countless gazes turned over, staring at this young man.
"Lei Yan, at the fifth-level of Heavenly Dipper. His offense and defense are balanced, and he's extremely strong. If he challenges you, you must definitely not accept." Ye Lingshuang transmitted her voice to Qin Wentian, her words causing Qin Wentian's countenance to change slightly. Seems like this senior apprentice sister of his had the intention to pull the distance between them closer. Although he understood that Ye Lingshuang had a request, he didn't mind it. After all, no matter who it was, no one would be able to remain unmoved when their father was heavily injured.
"I'm Lei Yan from the Violet Thunder Sect. Although I, Lei Yan, am from the Violet Thunder Sect, upon seeing so many heroes appearing in the Ye Country Battle Arena, I, Lei Yan, would like to add to the fun. I'm prepared to invite an expert from the Battle Sword Sect to spar with me. Lei Yan spoke in a loud voice. Instantly, the entire battlefield erupted into an uproar as the sounds of mountains and seas filled the air, completely drowning the entire battlefield.
The competition between the nine great sects had always been intense, but it wasn't so easy to spectate the battles between them. In the Royal Sacred Region, only the Sacred Battle Platform could be seen, if not, it would have to depend on luck. Now that Lei Yan had issued a challenge to an expert from the Battle Sword Sect, it naturally caused the hearts of the crowd to be filled with excitement.
It was rumored that the combat prowess of those from the Battle Sword Sect was the strongest among the nine great sects. Today, an expert from the Violet Thunder Sect had issued a challenge to an expert from the Battle Sword Sect.
Those from the Battle Sword Sect frowned as a cold light flickered in their eyes. An expert from the Violet Thunder Sect directly issued a challenge in public, forcing them to accept it. If they didn't, wouldn't they be ridiculed by others? Their Battle Sword Sect actually didn't even dare to accept the challenge?
"Brother Qin, I, Lei Yan, have already experienced your eloquence. But I wonder if your combat prowess is as good as your mouth?" Lei Yan turned his head and stared at Qin Wentian. As expected, Qin Wentian wanted to challenge him because the person who caused the Violet Thunder Sect to lose face today, was none other than Qin Wentian.
"The young man beside the Holy Maiden?" The crowd grew increasingly excited when they saw Qin Wentian. This young man seemed to have an extraordinary relationship with the Holy Maiden of the Medicine Sovereign Valley and was also a disciple of the Battle Sword Sect. How could they not be filled with anticipation?
"My junior apprentice brother's cultivation base is at the fourth level of Heavenly Dipper while you are at the fifth level. Aren't you ashamed of challenging me? Why don't you challenge me instead?" Liu Yun had a smile that was not a smile on his face as he mocked Lei Yan.
"Hehe, I, Lei, also know that my words are somewhat inappropriate. It's just that Brother Qin's mouth is simply too venomous. I, Lei, have no choice but to seek guidance from him. As for you, there's no rush, there will naturally be someone from my Violet Thunder Sect who will challenge you." Lei Yan's words caused the crowd to be even more excited. Seems like there wouldn't be just a single battle today.
Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at Lei Yan as he laughed in disdain, "The loser shall die. How about it?"
As the sound of his voice faded, many in the crowd drew in a breath of cold air. How arrogant. The loser shall die? Lei Yan provoked him and he actually used the simplest of words to reply.
Such boldness caused the crowd to sigh in admiration. As expected of someone from the Battle Sword Sect, the sect with the strongest individual combat prowess.
Lei Yan's heart also trembled because of Qin Wentian's words. He stared at Qin Wentian's eyes only to see that they were deep and clear. That disdainful smile on his face was filled with self-confidence, as though as long as he dared to nod his head, Qin Wentian would be able to take his life.
"BOOM!" A towering might of lightning permeated the air. Lei Yan's silhouette flickered as he stepped forward, floating in the air space above the hundred-victory battle platform. He pointed his finger at Qin Wentian, "If you don't borrow any divine weapons or treasures, the loser shall die."
The reason why he said that was because he was worried that Qin Wentian would play a trick on him. If Qin Wentian had a divine weapon, he would be able to instantly end his life. If he didn't borrow any divine weapons or treasures, he didn't believe that Qin Wentian would be able to defeat him, Lei Yan.
"If you really have the guts to accept my challenge, scram the hell out here." Lei Yan violently spoke, exuding an unexcelled aura. A lightning rock dragon could be seen coiling around his body, exuding a terrifying aura.
"Junior Brother, his attacks are very strong," Liu Yun reminded when he saw Qin Wentian standing up.
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded his head lightly. With a flash of light, a gigantic axe appeared in his hands as he faintly asked, "This is an ordinary weapon, should I be able to use it?"
Those from the Violet Thunder Sect sensed that this was indeed an ordinary weapon, hence they didn't say anything.
His silhouette flickered as Qin Wentian stepped out, wielding a gigantic axe in his hands. Every step he took caused Lei Yan to feel a faint pressure bearing down on him.
"Gravity." Lei Yan's heart trembled. Instantly, his Mandate of Gravity bore down on Qin Wentian. However, Qin Wentian was already used to the extreme gravity back in the Gravity Mountain. His opponent's Mandate of Gravity had no way to affect him.
At this moment, countless gazes were fixed on the two of them in the air. Those from the Medicine Sovereign Valley also placed great importance on this battle. They wanted to see how strong the person who had captured the heart of the Holy Maiden was exactly.
Qin Wentian stepped out as a formless pressure gushed forth. Lei Yan's body was clad in a layer of stone armor that crackled with lightning. With such a defense, even if Lei Yan managed to land a strike, he wouldn't be able to break through it in a short period of time.
"The Battle Sword Sect claims to have the strongest combat prowess. How laughable. Just a single battle and you're already so arrogant? Today, I shall let everyone see how laughable it is to claim to be the strongest in terms of individual combat prowess." Lei Yan dashed out as he roared in rage. Instantly, a lightning dragon materialized in the air, transforming into a resplendent dragonstone sword that pierced through the air, aiming for Qin Wentian.
"What a powerful attack." The eyes of the crowd flickered. Those from the Violet Thunder Sect had cold smiles on their faces. This was Lei Yan's Dragonstone Sword Technique, its destructive power was extremely terrifying. Each and every one of his swords were indestructible and extremely hard to destroy.
Qin Wentian lifted his hands as the will of his Mandate gushed forth. From the center of his brows, a cold light shot out, penetrating into Lei Yan's sea of consciousness as he slashed out with his great axe.
This axe strike seemed extremely ordinary, as though he was casually chopping down a tree. But at the instant the axe descended, everything in its path was destroyed. That indestructible dragonstone sword was directly cleaved into two halves. At the same time, Lei Yan's axe continued to slash forward as a beam of axe light flashed past.
A crisp cracking sound rang out as Qin Wentian retracted his axe. The crowd turned their gazes onto Lei Yan only to see his body trembling as a line of blood appeared on his forehead. His body fell from the air.
That axe strike was akin to chopping down a tree, directly taking Lei Yan's life!
