Chapter 71 - Violet Ocean Full Moon Boulder (1/2)
Qin Nan inhaled deeply and calmed himself instantly; he brought his fists together and said, “Elderly Mister, apologies for being impolite. I didn’t know you were Old Shan’s Senior Brother. Please forgive me.”
Qin Nan was respectful toward Old Shan.
It was because when he shattered Old Shan’s Ocean Crescent Boulder to pieces, instead of asking him for compensation, Old Shan kindly gave him an incredibly precious Scarlet-Fanged Purple Dragon Badge.
The mysterious old man nodded his head without any expression; he waved his hand, causing two ancient books to appear. He then said with a calm tone, “You two, wait here. You can spend some time on these two books.”
Following this, the mysterious old man glanced toward Qin Nan and said, “Come with me.”
Qin Nan nodded his head without hesitation; he gave Chu Yun and Xiao Leng a glance before following behind the old man.
Chu Yun and Xiao Leng remained rooted on the spot and looked incredulously at the two disappearing figures.
They were yet to react to the situation as they failed to understand what was going on.
Who is this mysterious old man? Who is Old Shan? What relationship exists between Qin Nan and him?
At that instant, their gazes instinctively dropped to the books on the ground.
With a glance, amazed expressions appeared on Chu Yun and Xiao Leng’s faces; Xiao Leng even exclaimed in a shocked tone, “Martial Emperor’s Cultivation Notes? Two of them?”
After recovering from the shock, the two took deep breaths.
They clearly knew that the value of cultivation notes written by Martial Emperor cultivators was extremely precious.
Such precious things, and the mysterious old man had just given it to them like throwing rubbish?
At that moment, Chu Yun and Xiao Leng realized that the mysterious old man must possess an extraordinary background.
Chu Yun picked up one of the books, and a wry smile appeared on her elegant face; she said while shaking her head, “I’m afraid Junior Brother Qin Nan is the only one I don’t understand among the new disciples.”
Chu Yun said this with full honesty.
At the beginning—due to Senior Brother Gong Yang’s request—Chu Yun was curious about Qin Nan, but she did not see him as someone important, as she felt Qin Nan was too full of himself; he ended up astonishing her by killing Childe Gloomy Rage, who was ranked fourth among the top ten geniuses. Together with the mysterious old man from moments ago, it seemed like there were too many secrets surrounding Qin Nan.
“Junior Brother Qin Nan, one day, I’ll discover all your secrets.” Chu Yun thought to herself; her eyes were glistened, as if they were filled with water. She then cleared her thoughts and entered the cave with Xiao Leng, preparing to cultivate.
As they had just received precious Cultivation Notes from a Martial Emperor expert, they were not willing to waste any more time.
……
Qin Nan followed the mysterious old man through the woods for a while, before arriving at a hill with plenty of space.
The mysterious old man stopped in his track and turned around. He looked at Qin Nan and calmly said, “I know you have a lot of questions, but there’s no need to ask ‘em. Even if you asked, I would not answer. You only need to follow my orders; if I’m satisfied, I’ll give an incredible opportunity to you.”
Qin Nan was slightly stunned; he did not expect the old man to say this.
On the journey here, he had a lot of queries, like the name of this mysterious old man, and the reason he came looking for him, etc.
If he were not willing to say, Qin Nan would not ask, so he then said, “Elderly Mister, what should I do?”
Qin Nan was quite doubtful; he was only a seventh-layer Body Tempering Realm cultivator. Normally, he could only provide very little help to this mysterious old man.
