Chapter 589: Strong Support
The clamorous courtyard instantly went dead silent because of Qian Qiong’s words and actions, so silent once could hear a pin drop.
After the arrival of the members of the Ice Pavilion Sect, the Yin Sect, and the Yang Sect, the small courtyard became increasingly crowded.
Ji Qingyun, Yu Wei, and the other Heaven Expanse Sect disciples were pushed away from the center of the courtyard by the new arrivals.
Ji Qingyun looked very embarrassed, since Qian Qiong had pushed him out of his way when he had trotted over to greet him, full of smiles.
However, he rapidly adjusted himself and smiled flatteringly towards Qian Qiong.
That was because he was fully aware of how formidable Qian Qiong was.
Qian Qiong was at the late Profound realm. It was said that he had recently derived new enlightenment, and was only a step away from entering the Soul realm. All he lacked was an opportunity.
Meanwhile, the strength of the Ice Pavilion Sect was second only to that of the Heaven Palace Sect throughout the entire Domain of the Falling Stars, since they had two Soul realm experts in their sect.
Compared to the Ice Pavilion Sect, the Heaven Expanse Sect was weaker, and Ji Qingyun’s personal status in the Heaven Expanse Sect was also lower than Qian Qiong’s in the Ice Pavilion Sect.
While everyone was deeply confused, Nie Tian bowed respectfully towards Qian Qiong and said, “You’re being too kind, Senior Qian.”
As he straightened his back, he saw Xuan Ke nodding slightly at him, smiling.
He instantly realized that it was Xuan Ke, who was rather familiar with his mask, that had told Qian Qiong about his actual identity.
Smiling at him, Xuan Ke said, “I learned from Shi Qing that you finished using that cultivation room and came here.”
Lu Ling from the Yin Sect smiled like a blossoming flower as she said, “Hahaha, sorry for showing up here without notice. We want you to know that the sects in the Realm of a Thousand Devastations will always stand by your side.”
With these words, she gave Kong Hong a sideways look.
Upon receiving his look, Kong Hong from the Yang Sect smiled as he said, “Of course! Every sect in the Realm of a Thousand Devastations will support you, no matter what!”
Upon hearing these words, Jiang Zhisu, Fang Hui, and the others from the Realm of Flame Heaven became even more confused.
As the only one who knew what was going on, Hu Rong didn’t seem surprised at all. Instead, he continued smiling.
At this moment, Yu Wei, who was seriously injured by Nie Tian, finally stabilized her injuries, and thus asked again, “Who are you exactly?!”
Only then did Nie Tian take his mask off and say with a stern face, “I’m also from the Realm of Flame Heaven.”
Li Jing from the Blood Sect and Jiang Zhisu from the Cloudsoaring Sect gasped at the scene.
“He’s Nie Tian!”
“I can’t believe that it’s Nie Tian!”
Ghost Eye, Fang Hui, and the others also widened their eyes in shock.
However, they still didn’t know why Qian Qiong and the other experts were here.
Nie Tian had assumed a different identity when he had gone through the spatial rift to that strange dimension.
Those from the Realm of Flame Heaven had assumed that Nie Tian was still holed up somewhere to avoid the Heaven Palace Sect and the Flame God Sect.
They had absolutely no idea what Nie Tian had done in that strange dimension.
By the time they had arrived in the Realm of Split Void, they had only learned from the Blood Skull that Nie Tian was also in Shatter City, and that he was cultivating wholeheartedly in one of their cultivation rooms.
However, after their return to their sects, Xuan Ke, Chen Hao, Ye Qin, and the other chosen ones had informed their seniors that it was under Nie Tian’s leadership that they had fought off outsiders, defeated those from the Heaven Palace Sect and the other sects, survived Armes’ devastating strike, and made it back to the Domain of the Falling Stars alive.
The fact that no one had returned one month after their return also proved how special Nie Tian was.
“Nie Tian!” An exclamation escaped Ji Qingyun’s mouth. “The successor of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace!”
