Peerless Battle Spirit

Ning Jianfei's voice was calm as usual.

He had assumed that Duan Qing had only dared to compete with him due to his ignorance. However, since he had made his stance clear, he was confident that Duan Qing would not dare to oppose his will even if he were given a hundred guts.

Dong Kuo, the woman from the Undead Tribe, and the man from the Lightning Tribe wore disdainful looks upon hearing this.

Weren't you, Duan Qing, impressive?

Show us how you're going to deal with this mess!

"Tsk tsk, things are getting interesting!"

"This Duan Qing is too reckless, not taking the consequences into consideration at all!"

A few among the cultivators were gloating over it, while most of them shook their heads.

In their opinion, even if Duan Qing possessed an outstanding eye-technique, there was no way he could be comparable to Ning Jianfei.

Inside the other booth...

Yi Feng wore a calm expression as if he could not hear or see anything.

Zhan Xiaoxian's eyes burned furiously as she snapped, "How scornful, that guy is too full of himself!"

Qin Nan's eyes squinted slightly too.

Due to his grudge against the South-Heaven Gate, he had never had a good impression of the people of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground.

However, to his surprise, a mere inner disciple of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground was already this scornful.

Asking him to bid five million God Stones and bring him the item?

Spare his life?

From his tone, it felt like it had been quite merciful that he was willing to spare him?

How ridiculous!

"Ning Jianfei, right? Enough with the threats, don't act like you're some authority here. If you don't have the God Stones, you should probably piss off. I now bid six million God Stones. The Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower is mine for sure. If you think so highly of yourself, go on and bid with a higher price!"

Qin Nan yelled with a hollow laugh.

The words caused Zhan Xiaoxian's figure to shudder, whose eyes were filled with disbelief. Even though she had been subconsciously cursing just then, she did not expect Qin Nan's temper to be worse than hers, to challenge Ning Jianfei directly.

The cultivators were utterly dumbfounded, who almost suspected that they had heard it wrong.

Duan Qing was challenging Ning Jianfei directly?

Was he out of his mind?

Even Dong Kuo and his crew were left with blank faces. They never expected Duan Qing would be so fearless.

Ning Jianfei's expression froze instantly too.

It was his first time being challenged in a faction like Linran City.

A great murderous intent arose within his eyes.

BANG.

Following a loud explosion, the door of the booth was shattered to pieces. Ning Jianfei stood at the doorway as his robes flapped wildly. His cold eyes glared at Qin Nan and the others in the booth.

The entire palace suddenly became icy, causing many cultivators to feel a chill in their hearts.

"Ning Jianfei, what are you doing? Do you really want to break the rules and startle the City Lord?"

Seeing this, Guan Hai immediately warned as the aura in his body rose rapidly.

Ning Jianfei took a deep breath and forcefully withheld the murderous intent in his heart.

Even as an inner disciple of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground and a genius of the God Ranking, he still did not have the right to challenge the authority of a Martial Monarch.

"Very well, Duan Qing, I have to say that I'm utterly impressed by your courage. You’d better hope that you are allowed to stay in the City Lord’s Mansion for the rest of your life. Otherwise, I'll crush you to pieces!"

Ning Jianfei said in a cold tone, before flicking his sleeves and leaving.

The disciples of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, Dong Kuo, and his crew finally reacted and followed behind.

The palace was deathly silent, as many among the crowd had yet to collect their thoughts.

"Vice City Lord Guan Hai, does that mean the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower is now mine?"

Qin Nan's calm voice echoed in the hall.

"Ugh, of course."

Guan Hai responded after a slight start.

The thoughts of the cultivators went blank too. This Duan Qing still had the mood for the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower after what had just happened?

...Meanwhile, in the booth...

Zhan Xiaoxian was fully panicked and said, "Brother Duan Qing, that was too reckless. This Ning Jianfei is really strong. We don't stand any chance against him. No no, I have to call my brother here..."

She hurriedly took out a badge.

"Xiaoxian, it's fine." Qin Nan was quite amused, who immediately rejected the suggestion, "Don't worry, I have it under control. He won't do any harm to me."

"But..."

Zhan Xiaoxian was trying to say something.

"No buts, Master Yi Feng, let's retrieve our herb. Xiaoxian, we'll meet again."

Qin Nan waved his hand and left the booth with Yi Feng.

After handing over the God Stones, Qin Nan received the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower and the Misery Ocean Brew.

"Qin Nan, what are you planning to do now? That Ning Jianfei is most likely waiting for you outside the City Lord’s Mansion. Once we leave this place, he will surely make his move." Yi Feng transmitted his voice in an indifferent tone.

"Isn't that what you guys wanted to see from the beginning?" Qin Nan rolled his eyes.

Why were they making it so complicated just to let him kill an inner disciple of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground?

"Qin Nan, that's not true. You can choose to compromise and give Ning Jianfei great benefits, then steal it from him later." Yi Feng said while shaking his head.

Qin Nan was slightly startled. On second thought, it seemed like there were other reasons why the Anti-Heaven Alliance had set this up.

"Well, it doesn't really matter now. Since you've completed half of the mission, what will you do now?" Yi Feng asked.

"Let's move forward."

Qin Nan said calmly as he headed straight toward the entrance of the City Lord’s Mansion.

The cultivators who were in the palace were now gathering at the entrance. Their eyes were filled with astonishment when they saw Qin Nan's figure.

"Duan Qing is heading straight for the entrance!"

"What is he planning to do now? Ning Jianfei will surely attack him once he has left the vicinity of the City Lord’s Mansion!"

They initially thought Duan Qing would use some other way to escape, but nothing had gone according to their expectations.

Under the crowd's gaze, Qin Nan and Master Yi Feng exited the palace and landed on the street in front of the City Lord’s Mansion.

"You..."

Not far from them, Dong Kuo and his crew, and the four disciples of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground were dumbfounded seeing them.

Even Ning Jianfei was slightly shocked.

Was this Duan Qing extremely dumb, or was he fearless because he was confident in his strength?

The thought was denied as soon as it crossed Ning Jianfei's mind.

Even if this Duan Qing did have some moves, did it make any difference?

He was an inner disciple of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, a genius of the God Ranking. There was no reason he would lose to Duan Qing!

"Duan Qing, time to die!"

Ning Jianfei launched his attack within the blink of an eye. A tremendous sword intent immediately slashed forward!
