Qin Nan's heart skipped a beat. He quickly turned around.
He saw three figures appearing out of nowhere around twenty zhang away from him.
The leader in the middle was a middle-aged man. He wore a white robe and held an ancient jade bamboo fan in his hand. There was a smile on his face, and he gave off a refined and cultured feeling.
However, Qin Nan could sense a tremendous power of rules surging inside the middle-aged man's body. Once it was unleashed, it would surely destroy the world.
He was a peak Ruler Realm cultivator!
On the left and right of the middle-aged man were an old man in a long robe. His white hair was tied up in a bun, his face was covered in wrinkles, and his eyes were extremely bright. The last one was a middle-aged man with a square face. He was playing with two jade beads in his left hand.
Qin Nan calmed his thoughts. He withdrew the formation and revealed himself.
The three of them were not in a rush to make a move after noticing his presence. It was likely that they still had some leeway.
"Cultivator Qin Nan, allow me to introduce myself. I am the Soul-Sealing Ruler, Xu Ze, the former patriarch of the Xu Clan. I'm currently one of the oldest members of the Xu Clan," the Soul-Sealing Ruler said.
"These two beside me are Cultivator Shangguan Zheng and Cultivator Shangguan Hou. Cultivator Shangguan Zheng is the patriarch of the Dao Ape Clan, and Cultivator Shangguan Hou is the current patriarch."
Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Hou brought their fists together at Qin Nan as soon as he finished the sentence.
It was obvious that they did not have any ill intentions judging from the details.
Qin Nan returned the gesture and said to Shangguan Zheng and Shangguan Hou, "Fellow cultivators, I had no choice but to barge into your clan's territory. Please forgive me."
Shangguan Zheng waved his hand expressionlessly and said, "Cultivator Qin, there's no need to take it to heart. It's your own ability that allowed you to come in."
Shangguan Hou said with a smile, "Brother Qin Nan, we've already guessed that you're here for Cultivator Tang Qingshan, right?"
Qin Nan nodded and said sincerely, "Tang Qingshan is my Senior Brother. I can't watch him become Cang's subordinate. I have to awaken his will."
Shangguan Zheng squeezed out a smile and said, "Little Friend Qin is so loyal and righteous. This old man truly admires you. In this world, there are very few people like Little Friend Qin. We …"
Before he could finish, Shangguan Hou immediately said, "Brother Qin Nan, the Dao Ape Tribe does have a way to deal with it. However, we need to hear Senior Soul Sealer's opinion on this matter. "
Qin Nan's heart was as clear as a mirror as he looked at the Soulseal Hegemon.
The Soulseal Hegemon laughed and said, "Young friend Qin Nan, you're a smart person, so I won't beat around the bush with you. Our Xu Clan formed an alliance more than three hundred years ago. "
"You should have recognized the three altars by now. Since the ancient battle, our Xu Clan and the Mumen Sect have been trying to become the new Heaven Highness, but we haven't succeeded yet."
Qin Nan said after a slight ponder, "What are your conditions? Tell me, I'll see if I can fulfill them."
The Soulseal Hegemon's smile widened. He said, "Qin Nan, you're so straightforward. We'll be straightforward then. On the first day of next month, many factions will be heading to the Blue Dome with Ye Zhaoxian. I would like to ask Empress Feiyue, Ancestor Mingchu, and the others to lend us a hand. "
"On top of that, the Dao Ape Tribe will surely offend Cang if they help you. Therefore, we want the younger generation of the Xu Clan and the younger generation of the Dao Ape tribe to enter the Undying Cycle Mountain to cultivate. "
"Lastly, we would like to ask for three drops of your blood essence!"
Qin Nan frowned. He transmitted his voice, "Seniors, will there be any problem if I give him my blood essence?"
Kasyapa shook his head and said, "No, even Cang and Ye Zhaoxian won't be able to influence your soul, mind, etc., let alone them!"
With the Nine Dragons Seal in his soul, the Ownerless Heaven Pattern, and the Undying Cycle Mountain, who could possibly harm him?
Qin Nan said after a slight ponder, "If I help you at the Blue Dome, how should I help the Xu Clan? Besides, it's not a problem if you want to enter the Undying Cycle Mountain, but you won't be able to come out for some time. You will have to swear a lot of oaths too. "
Shangguan Hou was overjoyed. He blurted out, "That won't be a problem!"
The Soulseal Hegemon said, "Our Xu Clan has two plans when we enter the Blue Dome. The first plan is to become a Heaven Highness like we thought! However, as a safety precaution, we will have to compete for the chance when the time comes. During the process … "
Qin Nan and the Soulseal Hegemon discussed for half an hour. They finally reached an agreement after taking a step back.
Qin Nan transmitted his voice to Empress Feiyue, Ancestor Mingchu, and the others.
"It's your business now. I won't be involved."
The Soulseal Hegemon said. He landed on the altar.
"Brother Qin Nan, please come with me."
Shangguan Hou made a hand gesture. The three flew forward.
"Brother Qin Nan, to be honest with you, if Senior Brother and I were to fight Cultivator Tang Qingshan, we would only be able to weaken the will of the Wise Heaven Highness by twenty percent. We won't be able to change the outcome."
Shangguan Hou said as he flew.
"We've already reached an agreement before you came. We'll teach you the greatest secret of our clan. Once you've mastered it, we'll lend you the Dao Ape Bell. You should be able to weaken the will of the Wise Heaven Highness by fifty percent."
Shangguan Zheng said.
"You're asking me to learn it?"
Qin Nan was startled. He soon realized that the Dao Ape Tribe was willing to teach him the greatest secret because they were afraid of being held responsible. They were worried that the Wise Heaven Highness would vent his anger on the Dao Ape Tribe if they failed to save Tang Qingshan's life.
On top of it, they were trying to lower Cang's impression of them so he would not hold a grudge against the Dao Ape Tribe.
That being said, the two sides could usually make an oath to restrain themselves. However, the Dao Ape Tribe did not dare to make an oath. Who knew if the oath would work on the reincarnation of two Supreme Highnesses? Could it be broken?
"Alright, we'll do as you say."
Qin Nan nodded without hesitation.
Half an hour later, Qin Nan followed the two to the forbidden area of the Dao Ape Tribe.
