Chapter 345: Appreciation

Li Langfeng couldn’t help but call out, “Good boy!”

He didn’t expect that Nie Tian would actually have the audacity to chop off Ning Yang’s head.

Since the Heaven Palace Sect hadn’t formally declared that they had expelled him, he was still a member of the Heaven Palace Sect.

Not only that, but the Heaven Palace Sect had also placed high hopes in him. They had thrown in endless resources and effort to build him up into a future star, which was apparent from the exquisite golden sword and shield he used

Ever since Xue Long had made his deal with the Spirit Condor, the thought of killing Ning Yang had never entered his mind. When he had learned that Li Langfeng would also join their operation against Ning Yang, he had repeatedly warned Li Langfeng against killing Ning Yang.

Even just now, when Pei Qiqi had been caught up in the moment and almost killed Ning Yang, he had hastily interrupted her. After a second thought, the calmed Pei Qiqi had also dropped the idea of killing Ning Yang.

This was enough evidence that neither Xue Long nor Pei Qiqi had the audacity to kill Ning Yang.

In Li Langfeng’s eyes, Nie Tian would behave exactly the same as those two. He would probably also be held back by his worries, and wouldn’t dare to launch the murderous strike.

However, Nie Tian actually did!

Furthermore, that was after he had offered to do it and shoulder the responsibility for Nie Tian. Right after Nie Tian respectfully refused his offer, he had chopped off Ning Yang’s head without the slightest hesitation.

That was why he came to think very highly of Nie Tian and became full of praise.

“The fact that you actually dare to kill Ning Yang proves that you didn’t obtain those fragmentary star marks by accident. Only those who are strong and fearless deserve those legacy marks from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace. I’m truly impressed, kid!”

Xue Long and Pei Qiqi, however, stood speechless as they stared at Ning Yang’s severed head and open eyes, as if they were shocked by Nie Tian’s fierceness and cruelty.

At that moment, Nie Tian said with a surprisingly calm tone, “We’re different. I can feel Ning Yang’s hatred towards me. If I don’t kill him, sooner or later, he’ll seek me out and have his revenge. Since he’s too powerful, if I let him live, the next time we meet, I’ll be the one to die.

“The only way to make sure that doesn’t happen is to kill him and put an end to his threat!”

“Exactly, this is what you’re supposed to do.” An admiring smile appeared on Li Langfeng’s normally gloomy face.

Completely depleted, Nie Tian dropped heavily to the ground. He felt he even had difficulty turning his head as he said, “Uncle Xue, Senior Martial Sister, you can go ahead and take Ning Yang’s valuables.”

After he sat down, the Flame Dragon Armor flew up into the air before turning into a streak of fiery light and disappearing into his bracelet of holding.

The blood-colored light screen disintegrated. His blood, flame power, and flesh power returned to his body like floating streams of flames and blood.

Nie Tian examined himself with rapt attention, and discovered that his battle against Ning Yang had drained almost all of his strength.

With a single glance at Xue Long and Pei Qiqi, he could tell that they were in a situation similar to his, their expressions so exhausted that it seemed as if they could collapse at any moment.

“You don’t want any of Ning Yang’s valuables?” Xue Long asked softly.

“No, I don’t.” Sincerity could be seen on Nie Tian’s face. “You put in so much effort to help me fight him that you almost got killed by him. You did all that for me. It’s only fair that you take his valuables.”

Pei Qiqi, who had been caught up in Nie Tian’s crazy act of killing Ning Yang, finally resumed a calm state of mind and said, “Do you know that golden sword and shield of his are of Premium grade? The way I see it, both of them are spiritual tools of great value, and they are only slightly inferior to Spirit Channeling grade spiritual tools.

“You’re right.” Xue Long chimed in. “Those two spiritual tools the Heaven Palace Sect bestowed upon him are definitely beyond ordinary. Each of them must be worth more than 100,000 spirit stones.”

“It’s alright. What I got is far more valuable.” Nie Tian pointed to his chest, where his fragmentary star marks were.

Xue Long and Pei Qiqi instantly understood what he meant.

After realizing that Nie Tian had obtained the third legacy mark of Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace from Ning Yang, they no longer had the feeling that they were being given more than they deserved.

The two of them exchanged a glance, then stepped towards Ning Yang’s corpse. Pei Qiqi took the golden sword, while Xue Long placed one hand on the abdomen of Ning Yang’s corpse, and slowly detached and pulled out the golden shield from it.

Afterwards, Pei Qiqi, who was an expert in spatial magics, took Ning Yang’s ring of holding and lifted its restrictive spell.

CLATTER!

After a brief glance at its insides, Pei Qiqi poured out every item within the ring of holding.

Xue Long rapidly discovered that there were mainly spirit stones and spiritual materials for cultivation and recuperation.

Other than those, there were also a few hundred Star Stones.

Obviously, Ning Yang was so confident in himself that he didn’t believe he would end up severely wounded from battles against others. Therefore, he didn’t bring a single bottle of medicinal pills with him.
