Chapter 1349: A Former Foe Wants to Be Friends (1/2)

“Who is it?” Ji Yuanquan asked curiously.

“Big Brother Fan.” With these words, Ye Wenhan stepped forward and flew towards the teleportation portal in the Thousandsword Mountain Sect’s quarters like a streak of sword light. A wide smile appeared on his face before he even saw the man.

Upon arriving, he called out, “Big Brother Fan, what brought you here?”

He had nothing but heartfelt respect towards Fan Tianze.

In a way, he had even more respect towards Fan Tianze than Chu Yuan, the current sectmaster of the Heaven Span Pavilion.

Nie Tian was taken aback. “Senior Fan? Why is he here?”

Fan Tianze had helped him through the crises in the Shatter Battlefield and the Domain of Forbidden Heaven.

Fan Tianze had also said that a day would come when he would need his help.

Could it be that the day had come?

Heart filled with questions, he slowly descended towards the ground with Mo Qianfan, Yu Suying, and the others.

Mo Qianfan chuckled and said, “There are far fewer people here now. The number of Saint domain cultivators here was three times as many as now when we left for the Realm of Fire Spirit. It’s only been a few months, yet so many people have left. Who would have expected that?”

Ji Yuanquan snorted coldly. “Isn’t that all because the Shadow Society spread word of Gupi’s imminent arrival? It seems to me Shangguan Zhi from the Shadow Society still hasn’t accepted their defeat.”

As Nie Tian descended from the heavens, he noticed a handful of Saint domain experts that he was familiar with, including Ling Bingyun, Li Wanfa, Zhang Qiling, Yan Bin, and Gou Junhao.

All of them greeted him upon seeing him, including Ling Bingyun.

Surprised, Nie Tian asked, “Hmm? I see that you didn’t leave the Realm of Maelstrom. Gupi has left the Domain of Green Woods, and is now on its way to the Domain of Heaven Python. Your sect is safe now, isn’t it?”

“Gupi is a plague to all humanity,” Ling Bingyun said. “Even though it didn’t enter the Domain of Frigid Frost this time, it will eventually. If we don’t take care of it together, human realms may fall one after another. None will be spared. Since Gupi considers you its greatest threat, we shall stay and help you.”

Nie Tian took a deep look at her and said, “I didn’t expect you to be so incisive about this.”

“I’m flattered,” Ling Bingyun said with a plain tone.

SHEW!

Ye Wenhan and Fan Tianze flew over from the Thousandsword Mountain Sect’s quarters.

Nie Tian bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Senior Fan.”

Fan Tianze waved his hand and said with a grim face, “No need to stand on ceremony. I’m not here to ask for your assistance. Rather, I was in a nearby domain, and noticed that Fiend experts were lurking in adjacent areas in the starry river, along with Grand Monarch Bloodlust of the Demons and Grand Monarch Dark Nether of the Phantasms.

“All three powerful outsider races have sent grand monarchs to this region. It seems to me that the Domain of Heaven Python is their target.”

“What?!” Mo Qianfan exclaimed in shock.

Nie Tian’s expression also flickered. “The Fiends, Demons, and Phantasms all sent out grand monarchs just to take the Domain of Heaven Python? Is it worth the trouble?”

“The Domain of Heaven Python isn’t worth them sending out grand monarchs together... but you are!” Fan Tianze said.

Nie Tian smiled bitterly. “Me?”

“That’s right,” Fan Tianze said with all seriousness. “You’re very much in the limelight recently. Grand Monarch Dark Nether had a direct encounter against you in the Domain of Forbidden Heaven not long ago. You’re far too special, and your potential not only came as a shock to us, but to our enemies as well.”

“Eh...” Nie Tian was at a loss for words.

However, he noticed that Mo Qianfan, Ji Yuanquan, Ye Wenhan, and Yu Suying, who were all at the God domain, didn’t seem surprised at all, as if they all shared Fan Tianze’s opinion of him.

It was understandable that the three powerful outsider races would want to join up to kill him.

All of a sudden, Nie Tian realized that, to the outsiders, he might have become a greater threat than God domain experts like Luo Wanxiang, Chu Rui, and Ji Yuanquan.

Perhaps even Mo Heng, who had disappeared for a long time, wasn’t considered as great a threat as he was.

With a grim expression, Fan Tianze continued, “Grand Monarch Nether Channeler, Grand Monarch Dark Nether, and Grand Monarch Bloodlust. These are only the ones we know are here. We don’t know whether they’re going to send other grand monarchs later, or if powerful experts are already on their way here. But I have a feeling that this operation where they’ve sent three grand monarchs to the Domain of Heaven Python is only the first step.”
