Chapter 96 - Baffled (2/2)

This was even when he was quite covetous of the thirty thousand Martial Emperor Pills, which would allow his Divine Battle Spirit to improve at an unbelievable rate. However, Qin Nan chose to hold his greed back, as he was not supposed to take them all since it was not his contribution.

He was only taking the ten thousand Martial Emperor Pills as there was no need to be too polite among brothers, and Gong Yang had won a total of seventy thousand Martial Emperor Pills.

Gong Yang’s eyes flickered with a sense of compliment, as he then said, “Alrighty, let’s make it that way. By the way, I’ll have to excuse myself—you two enjoy.”

After saying this, Gong Yang instantly left the place without any hesitation.

This left Qin Nan and Xiao Qingxue speechless.

“Oh right, Qingxue, I did not use the Escape Orb which you gave me previously,” Qin Nan took the orb out and said with a wry smile, “I did tell you that I wouldn’t need this.”

“Wasn’t I worried about your safety?” Xiao Qingxue rolled her eyes at him, and paused for a brief moment, before saying in a soft tone, “This Escape Orb, you should keep it.”

Qin Nan was stunned for a moment, before he nodded his head and kept the orb in his pocket.

“Qin Nan, tell me; how many secrets are you still hiding?” Xiao Qingxue leaned forward and opened her attractive eyes wide, staring straight into Qin Nan’s.

It was the first time for Qin Nan to have such close interactions with Xiao Qingxue. He realized how attractive her facial features were—almost flawless—especially her flickering eyes, which absorbed his thoughts.

Qin Nan instinctively inhaled deeply, and captured a unique pleasant scent; he could not help but let out a cough, and avoided Xiao Qingxue’s gaze and said, “I don’t have any secrets.”

“Is that so?” Xiao Qingxue was not satisfied hearing this answer.

Qin Nan glanced at her and thought for a moment; he then stood up and said, “Qingxue, one day, I’ll let you witness them with your own eyes.”

Xiao Qingxue was stunned for a moment, before her big eyes turned into crescents, as a smile appeared on her face as she said, “Sure, I’ll wait.”

Qin Nan realized the atmosphere was a bit weird, thus he quickly switched the topic, “Now that I’ve received so many pills, I’m planning to go into seclusion and cultivate. What about you?”

“I’ve accepted a task recently, so I’m afraid I have to leave the sect for a while.” A sudden thought came to her, as she gave Qin Nan a death stare and said, “Even the outer domain of the Mystic Spirit Sect is full of talented disciples, you better control your temper.”

“Ugh… Sure, will do.” Upon seeing her expression, Qin Nan felt a sudden headache, as he instantly agreed.

“Good, this place is protected by a forbidding aura, you can start cultivating here. I’ll leave first.” Xiao Qingxue did not stay any longer, she turned around and headed straight to the exit, creating a gust of a pleasant scent. Before she stepped out of the door, she glanced back at Qin Nan and said in a low tone, “Qin Nan, I’ll wait for you in the inner domain.”

After saying this, Xiao Qingxue immediately ran off like a terrified rabbit.

After seeing such a behavior from her, Qin Nan was quite confused, What happened to her?

“Screw it, there’s no point of thinking about it. The most important thing now is to improve the Divine Battle Spirit!” Qin Nan took a deep breath, as his eyes were ignited with flames, “A hundred thousand Xiantian Pills from the sect, plus these Martial Emperor Pills which are equivalent to a million Xiantian Pills, summing up to a total of one million, one hundred thousand Xiantian Pills. I wonder how much you are able to improve?”

After saying this, nine golden rays appeared swiftly behind Qin Nan, as the Divine Battle Spirit was unleashed.
