The birthday feast took place.
Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao and two old men in the peak Human Immortal Realm walked into the hall.
Wan Xiao wore an icy expression.
Ever since he almost became Qin Nan's mount, he had been in a terrible mood for the past few days.
On the way here, he heard from other cultivators that Gao Yuanxian was here. Naturally, he didn't have a pleasant expression.
He had already warned Gao Yuanxian not to come within a hundred zhang of Xu Xianzhi.
"Cultivator Wan Xiao!"
"Cultivator Wan Xiao..."
Zhao Lijian immediately withdrew his aura. With a face full of smiles, he and the other experts in the hall went forward to welcome them.
Gao Yuanxian was startled when he saw the newcomers.
Even though the Golden-Winged Peng Emperor was not as strong as his father, he was still a Peerless Ruler.
Besides, Wan Xiao was a Peerless Genius.
In simpler words, he dared to challenge Qiu Hong, but he did not have the confidence to challenge Wan Xiao.
As he was thinking of a plan, his eyes flickered as a thought crossed his mind. He transmitted his voice, "Wan Xiao, it's not what you think."
Wan Xiao replied coldly, "If it's not what I think, what else could it be?"
Gao Yuanxian pretended to be furious and said, "A cultivator kept sticking close to Xianzhi. Xianzhi was very angry, but she couldn't say it out loud. I asked him to leave, but he didn't do anything."
He knew Wan Xiao would not tolerate even a grain of sand in his eyes. He could easily convince Wan Xiao to pick on Qin Nan by making up a story.
"Who's there? Who dares to harass Xianzhi! "
Wan Xiao's expression turned even colder. He glanced forward.
This time, he did not transmit his voice. Instead, he let his voice resound throughout the entire palace.
"This is going to be interesting!"
The experts in the hall murmured.
Almost every cultivator in the Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm knew Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao was fond of Xu Xianzhi.
Gao Yuanxian and Zhao Lijian exchanged glances with one another. The grins on their faces widened.
They could easily guess what was going to happen next. Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao was surely going to pick on Qin Nan!
"Qin Nan? Why are you here? "
However, when Wan Xiao's gaze landed on Qin Nan, the coldness on his face completely vanished. His expression shifted.
Over the past few days, the scene of Qin Nan stepping on it and wanting to take it as a mount was still clearly etched in its mind. It was like a nightmare that it could never forget.
"Can't I appear here?"
Qin Nan's face was expressionless, and his body emitted an invisible aura.
This Wan Xiao just had to show up when Zhao Lijian was about to make his move. It completely messed up Zhao Lijian's plan.
"Ugh …" Wan Xiao was stunned. He did not know what to say.
However, his expression and words stunned the experts, including Gao Yuanxian and Zhao Lijian.
Why did the Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao lose his aura as if he had stumbled into his natural enemy after encountering Qin Nan?
"Are you Qin Nan? You killed the Underworld Prince and attacked our Young Master. You even tried to take our Young Master as your … "
The two peak Human Immortals realized something was not right. They switched the topic murderously, "We won't forgive you!"
The others might be clueless, but the factions under the Golden-Winged Peng Emperor had long listed Qin Nan as their greatest enemy.
Any disciple or elder that stumbled into him would have to attack him.
"He killed the Underworld Prince?"
The experts in the hall were astounded. The woman in the black robe seemed to have received a great shock too. She raised her head, revealing her pitch-black eyes.
Gao Yuanxian and Zhao Lijian were no exception either.
It was extremely difficult for a Peerless Genius to be born.
Normally, even if two Peerless Geniuses were to fight one another, it was unlikely that they would kill one another.
Most importantly, it was extremely difficult to determine who was stronger between two Peerless Geniuses. It was impossible to tell who was stronger.
If Qin Nan was able to kill the Underworld Prince, didn't that mean his strength had surpassed ordinary Peerless Geniuses?
Or perhaps, he had probed the threshold of the Dao Realm?
"Don't waste your time here." Qin Nan stared at Wan Xiao and said, "Don't let me see you again. Otherwise, you won't be able to escape. You will become my mount."
Once these words were spoken, the hearts of the people present were once again fiercely impacted.
This Qin Nan was planning to recruit the Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao as his mount?
Was he out of his mind?
"Do you really think you can recruit me as your mount? I'm telling you, I'll surely kill you next time. Let's go! "
Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao's eyes flickered with anger. He groaned and left the palace with the two peak Human Immortals.
Even though the sealing force that Qin Nan had placed in his body had been nullified, he would only embarrass himself if he stayed any longer.
If Qin Nan proposed a duel or something, he would not be able to handle it.
"He's … leaving just like that?"
Some of the experts subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
No matter how they looked at it, Wan Xiao did not seem confident at all. It felt like he was running away with his tail between his legs.
Wan Xiao's reaction when he was about to be recruited as Qin Nan's mount could only mean one thing.
Wan Xiao was extremely intimidated by Qin Nan. He had no confidence in him at all!
"Not many people in the entire Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm are able to intimidate the Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao to such an extent."
Xu Xianzhi's eyes flickered as she transmitted her voice, "Friend Qin Nan, pardon me for asking, but are you Empress Feiyue's successor?"
The copper mirror's successor?
Qin Nan was startled, before he burst out laughing, "Don't be ridiculous, there's no way I'm her successor."
With the copper mirror's icy personality, it would be a torture for anyone to be her successor.
"Cultivator Zhao, I didn't expect this to happen. Why don't we have a toast?"
Qin Nan raised his cup once again.
"Friend Qin Nan, I was only drinking to test you, but now that I've witnessed your capabilities, there's no need for that."
Zhao Lijian's figure shuddered, but he quickly collected his thoughts and said with a calm smile, "I'm sorry for what I did, I hope Cultivator Qin can forgive me."
He had always believed that he should let go when it was time to do so.
He could not afford to offend a Peerless Genius like Qin Nan over something so insignificant.
Gao Yuanxian, on the other hand, clenched his teeth and remained silent.
"Alright then."
