Everyone in the city knew who they could offend and who they could not afford to offend. This Jin Wan was precisely the type of person that they could not afford to offend.
The City Defense Camp was responsible for maintaining the peace and order of the Imperial Capital. Even the important ministers of the Imperial Court and the royal family would not dare to provoke the City Defense Camp in public. However, there would always be a group of people who could stand above tens of thousands of people. They could ignore the rules and act recklessly.
The previous City Defense Camp Lieutenant did not know the immensity of heaven and earth and offended Jin Wan. That night, all 180 members of the lieutenant's family were killed.
Even though they knew that it was Jin Wan's doing, no one dared to question him. Even the Tian Nan Empire's royal family had to swallow their anger.
Jin Wan's background was too strong. The Spirit Pill Sect controlled most of the elixirs in the Tian Nan Empire. Offending Jin Wan was equivalent to offending the Spirit Pill Sect and cutting off the source of elixirs. This was something that no one in the Tian Nan Empire could accept.
The City Defense Camp did not dare to move forward. Wei Bao licked his lips as a bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes.
"In just a short month, you actually broke through to the 9th level of the Giant Strength Realm. Using elixirs to forcefully raise your cultivation, you really don't know the meaning of death." Jin Wan sneered.
Even though they were both at the 9th level of the Giant Strength Realm, there was still a huge difference in their strength.
In just a short month, Qin Feng was able to break through consecutively. It was definitely due to the power of elixirs. However, forcefully raising one's cultivation would cause endless trouble. Without time to strengthen one's foundation, a 9th level Giant Strength Realm martial artist like him would not be able to withstand a single blow.
Jin Wan's subordinate, Wei Bao, grew up among demonic beasts. Killing was his second nature and he was much more agile than the average Giant Strength Realm martial artist. Under Jin Wan's guidance, he awakened a Grade 2 Divine Soul, Wind Eagle.
This was a type of Divine Soul that specialized in speed. With the support of the Divine Soul, Wei Bao's speed far exceeded other 9th level Giant Strength Realm martial artists.
Wei Bao's weapon was his claws and he specialized in close combat. Usually, the moment Wei Bao made his move, the outcome of the battle would be decided.
An inch shorter was an inch more dangerous. Claws were a weapon that would either not move or would be killed the moment it moved.
"You're just a warrior of the Sky Water Qin Clan. You're just a wild kid from a remote village. Today, I'll show you what it means to be stronger than you." Jin Wan sneered.
An Xu looked at Sun Ren with a strange expression. "Brother Sun, are you messing with me? Is this Qin Feng really as terrifying as you say?"
"You'll know when you see it." Sun Ren curled his lips.
He admitted that Jin Wan's subordinate, Wei Bao, was a powerful Giant Realm martial artist. Even if he were to fight against Wei Bao, he would most likely lose.
But what kind of person was Qin Feng? He killed the mountain demon with a single move, forced the Six Flower Sword Guards to retreat with his own strength, and fought against the giant monster with his own strength.
Although Wei Bao was strong, he was still a far cry from the Six Flower Sword Guards, let alone that incomparably huge monster.
Qin Feng could even kill such a huge monster. How could Wei Bao be a match for Qin Feng? He was simply courting death.
How terrifying was Qin Feng's strength? Only those who followed him in the secret realm would know.
Furthermore, when they were in the secret realm, Qin Feng's cultivation was only at the fourth level of the Giant Realm. Now that Qin Feng was at the ninth level of the Giant Realm, his strength must have improved by leaps and bounds.
Sun Ren even suspected that Qin Feng's true cultivation wasn't at the Giant Realm. Instead, he used some kind of secret technique to limit his cultivation to the Giant Realm. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain how a Giant Realm martial artist could have such terrifying strength. It would also be hard to explain how Qin Feng could break through to the ninth level of the Giant Realm in a short span of a month.
At this moment, many thoughts flashed through Sun Ren's mind.
"How is this possible?!"
Suddenly, the crowd's exclamation woke Sun Ren up from his thoughts. The moment he was distracted, the outcome of the battle had already been decided.
It was really a matter of life and death in a split second. However, the outcome was completely different from what everyone had guessed.
Sun Ren looked at the headless corpse on the ground in shock, "What happened?"
"You didn't see it?" An Xu was also shocked. However, he was shocked by Qin Feng's strange strength.
Was Wei Bao strong? He was very strong. Even An Xu wouldn't dare to say that he could win against Wei Bao.
However, such an expert couldn't even last a single round against Qin Feng. With a casual slap, Wei Bao's head exploded.
Jin Wan's face was ashen. His most capable subordinate had been killed so easily.
Qin Feng looked at Jin Wan, "If you want to fight, then do it yourself. Don't send your subordinate to die!"
"Stinking brat, you're courting death!" Jin Wan was enraged. He condensed True Energy in his palm and was prepared to personally kill Qin Feng.
Qin Feng sneered. He didn't back down and was prepared to fight Jin Wan on the street.
"Sirs, why don't the two of you sit down and have a good talk? Why do you have to fight until your heads are bleeding and bodies are strewn all over the place?" Suddenly, a person walked out from the crowd and looked at the two of them with a smile.
Jin Wan's face changed when he saw this person, "You?
Why are you here? "
Shi Qinghao smiled, "The Tiannan Royal Family invited me!"
"Even you are here. It seems that the Tiannan Grand Ritual this time is extraordinary." Jin Wan snorted. Although he was still arrogant, he actually restrained his killing intent.
Jin Wan was known as a madman in Tiannan. He did things without scruples and his thoughts were unpredictable. Such a madman would actually change his mind because of a person's words.
"I had nothing to do and the Tiannan Royal Family invited me. Master asked me to come out and relax." Shi Qinghao smiled.
"Relax? The Tiannan Grand Ritual that has caused the deaths of countless martial artists in Tiannan and the martial artists in the Canglan Region are helpless is just a place for you to relax?" Jin Wan snorted.
Shi Qinghao nodded, "That is indeed the case!"
"So arrogant!"
Qin Feng rolled his eyes. Jin Wan's arrogance had a trace of madness, but Shi Qinghao's arrogance was incomparably cold. It was as if he was born to be above everyone and everything in the world was just a foil to him.
However, other than Jin Wan, the others didn't have any special reaction when they saw Shi Qinghao. It was as if they didn't know Shi Qinghao's true identity.
However, if Shi Qinghao could make Jin Wan back down, it was nothing more than his amazing strength and background. He was so powerful that even a madman like Jin Wan couldn't do anything about it.
Sun Ren and An Xu both looked at Shi Qinghao in surprise. Who on earth was this guy? Just one sentence was enough to make Jin Wan retreat in the face of difficulties. In the entire Tiannan, no, in the entire Canglan Domain, there was no such force. Could it be that this Shi Qinghao came from outside the Canglan Domain?
Shi Qinghao looked at Qin Feng, "Your move was very interesting. I like it. Can you sell it to me?"
"Not for sale!" Qin Feng refused bluntly.
Shi Qinghao smiled slightly, "That would be a pity."
Qin Feng frowned. Although Shi Qinghao had a warm smile on his face, Qin Feng could feel that there was a bloodthirsty face hidden under that warm smile.
'This Shi Qinghao wants to kill me just because I refused his proposal?' Qin Feng thought to himself. Shi Qinghao was very dangerous, even more so than Jin Wan.
'The Jade Light Sacred Ground actually intervened in the Tiannan Grand Ceremony. Could it be that they received some information?'
Red Yaksha, who was like a flame, looked at the figure disappearing at the end of the street. A trace of doubt flashed across his face.
The Holy Land of Martial Arts was the martial arts palace that every martial artist dreamed of. Every Holy Land was extraordinary and above the mortal world. Even those sects with long inheritances had to lower their proud heads in front of the Holy Land of Martial Arts.
The disciples of the Martial Dao Sacred Ground rarely appeared in the world. However, once a Sacred Ground disciple appeared, it would cause a huge commotion.
Shi Qinghao was a disciple of the Jade Light Sacred Ground. The Jade Light Sacred Ground was the only Martial Dao Sacred Ground in the Canglan Domain. It was detached from the world and rarely paid attention to the affairs of the ordinary.
"Is there something we don't know about this Tiannan Grand Ceremony?" Red Yaksha asked in a deep voice.
"The Tiannan royal family seems to have done something we didn't expect this time?" A dark shadow moved under Red Yaksha's feet.
"A disciple of the Jade Light Sacred Ground? Let's go test the strength of this Sacred Ground disciple. I want to see if the Martial Dao Sacred Ground is as magical as the legends say." Red Yaksha covered his face and laughed.
"Provoking a Sacred Ground disciple for no reason will not benefit our plan!" The dark shadow said.
A cold light flashed in Red Yaksha's eyes, "Leaving this Sacred Ground disciple to wander outside makes me even more uneasy!"
"He is a Sacred Ground disciple after all. Ordinary Blood Emissaries are probably no match for him." Tie Futu walked in.
"Ordinary Blood Emissaries are naturally no match for him, so I sent out my high-ranking Blood Emissaries!" Red Yaksha chuckled.
Tie Futu sat down, "It seems you are prepared to use the lives of these high-ranking Blood Emissaries to test the quality of this Sacred Ground disciple!"
Suddenly, Red Yaksha's expression changed greatly. In that instant, the auras of the five high-ranking Blood Emissaries disappeared!
"It seems you have failed!" Tie Futu chuckled.
"The Martial Dao Sacred Ground is indeed worthy of its reputation. Even a random person is so difficult to deal with!" Red Yaksha coldly snorted.
Shi Qinghao leisurely strolled through the intersection. Behind him were five ice-cold corpses. There were no wounds on these corpses!
"The Tiannan Grand Ceremony is actually able to alarm Master. I want to see what is so special about this so-called Tiannan Grand Ceremony!" Shi Qinghao wiped the corners of his mouth as if he had just eaten a full meal.
Qin Feng looked back with every step he took. After walking through a street, Qin Feng sighed.
"It is useless for you to follow me. I don't accept disciples!" Qin Feng looked at the little beggar and said.
At the city gate, he was moved by compassion and treated this little beggar to a meal. Who would have thought that this little beggar would rely on him?
Accept disciples?
He had never had such thoughts. Even if Xi and the Empress were not his disciples, he had never accepted any disciples. He did not accept any disciples in the past, and he would not accept any now. He had no plans to do so in the future.
