Chapter 60 - Three-Petalled Golden Lily (1/2)
After seeing this, Qin Nan let out a sigh of relief; soon after, he collapsed onto the ground due to the fatigue.
He had used up most of his strength while battling Wang Meng, plus the fact that he was forced to use his Hundred Steps Soaring Saber to hunt down the two seventh-layer Body Tempering Realm disciples, causing him to reach his limit—there was not a single trace of force left in his body.
As for Xiao Leng who was standing beside Qin Nan—he was still immersed in shock, unable to recover in such a short period of time.
Even though Xiao Leng was one of the top ten geniuses—and Xiao Qingxue’s brother—who would not be astonished easily, what happened today had left him in utter shock.
Not only had Qin Nan surprisingly ended up killing Wang Meng, he also managed to instantly hunt down the two escaping seventh-layer Body Tempering Realm disciples with his sheath and saber with only a single skill.
Even a super genius with a ninth-layer Body Tempering Realm cultivation could not have done that.
Xiao Leng took a deep breath, as he glanced instinctively at Qin Nan.
At that moment, his view of Qin Nan changed completely.
Previously, Xiao Leng’s view toward Qin Nan would have been filled with disdain; now, a hint of fear and respect could be seen in his eyes.
If Qin Nan is able to slay Wang Meng and two seventh-layer Body Tempering Realm disciples, what chance do I have going against Qin Nan?
Xiao Leng inhaled deeply once again, and said with a cautious tone, “Qin Nan… Senior Brother Qin Nan, what was the skill you used just then? How is it able to kill enemies from eighty meters away?”
Qin Nan gave him a calm look; instead of answering his questions, he said, “Don’t call me Senior Brother Qin Nan, call me Brother Nan.”
Xiao Leng’s face went red after hearing the words and he said, “Don’t ever think that I’ll call you Brother Nan just because you have defeated them…”
“Don’t you know that it’s not polite to ask someone about their Martial Skills?” Qin Nan calmly said, “Now don’t just stand there. Go and get the Blue Dragon Badges; we’ll split them one each.”
Xiao Leng was unsatisfied that Qin Nan had no intention of answering his questions, but as he thought about the Blue Dragon Badges, he turned excited immediately. He went up to retrieve the Blue Dragon Badges, and threw one of them to Qin Nan.
Qin Nan received the badge and inspected it before putting it into his sleeve; he then said, “Xiao Leng, I’ll need to ask you for a favor.”
“What is it?” Xiao Leng asked instinctively, who then added, “Feel free to say it, since you’ve done all the work eliminating those three.”
These were Xiao Leng’s honest words.
Qin Nan smilingly said, “I’ll need your help to collect the pills, maps, treasures they had. Remember, search their bodies thoroughly, and don’t miss a single pill.”
Xiao Leng was slightly stunned, before nodding his head. In the Martial Art World, it was normal to acquire the enemy's possessions after they were slain.
Qin Nan glanced at Xiao Leng’s back and calmly added, “Oh, I forgot to mention; all the loot will be mine. I won’t share it with you.”
Xiao Leng, who was on his way to the bodies, almost tripped himself after hearing these words.
Qin Nan snicked in his heart, as he felt more pleasant now.
At the start, he was looked down upon by Xiao Leng; even though Qin Nan did not show his true emotions to Xiao Leng as an expression of respect toward Xiao Qingxue, he had always shown no mercy toward those who treated him badly.
Not long after, Xiao Leng returned with the loot—even Qin Nan was surprised by it.
There were about ten jade jars on the ground, each containing ten Xiantian Pills. Besides that, there were also some precious herbs, at least seven or eight of them; these were equivalent to thirty Xiantian Pills if they were traded.
