Just as Wen Nan Tian was sleeping soundly, dreaming of himself riding the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow, gaining infinite prestige points, holding the Creation Jade Disc in his left hand and the Pangu Axe in his right, with the Chaos Pearl hanging from his left foot and the Chaos Bell from his right, and a cloud of Primordial Purple Qi hovering above his head.
“Knock knock knock!”
A sudden knock came from outside the door, and Wen Nan Tian suddenly opened his eyes, shaking his head with a smile, thinking, “Really, what I think about during the day, I dream about at night.”
He got up and opened the door, seeing Wen Hu Jiu standing outside, not sleeping at night. He said in a bad mood, “Second Uncle, why are you disturbing my peaceful sleep this late at night?”
“Glug glug.”
Wen Hu Jiu took a sip of wine before saying, “Disturbing your peaceful sleep? Didn't you say you wanted to take action against the Yan family? As the saying goes, 'The night is dark and windy, the perfect time to kill.' It’s past midnight now, the prime time when people are tired and exhausted. It’s the perfect time to move.”
“If it wasn’t for this, wouldn’t I be sleeping comfortably under my covers?”
“....”
Wen Nan Tian’s expression turned serious. He knew that “the night is dark and windy, the perfect time to kill” was just an excuse used by Wen Hu Jiu, who was probably worried that he would suffer a huge loss if he clashed head-on with the Yan family.
So he came looking for him in the middle of the night to raid the Yan family, seeking revenge and settling the score.
“Second Uncle, thanks for your good intentions.”
“Since I’ve decided to make a scene at the Yan family, I won’t rush into things, and I won’t just go for a small-scale attack. I am the direct descendant of the Wen family of Lingnan, not an assassin from the Su family of Dark River.”
“Even if I want to kill, I will kill openly.”
To make an example of someone, you only need to kill the chicken. You can do that anytime. What’s the point of playing this game without the monkey? How can you gain more prestige points?
Hearing Wen Nan Tian’s words, Wen Hu Jiu took a big gulp of wine, “You showed off your sword immortal skills today, killing two waves of assassins sent by the Yan family. Yan Bie Tian won’t just sit idly by. You’re tearing apart the face with the Yan family directly, aren’t you afraid he will use shady tactics and leave you in Chaisang City?”
“If I was afraid of this and that, I wouldn’t have left the Wen family.”
Wen Nan Tian was not bothered by it, and instead, smiled confidently, “I’ll give him time to gather his experts and make full preparations. Then...I’ll kill him.”
These words were undoubtedly arrogant.
Wen Hu Jiu looked at Wen Nan Tian with a stunned expression, “You little brat, are you serious? Do you know that the Yan family is one of the top families in the Southwest, and if they really wanted to, they could hire even a Grand 逍遥境 expert, not to mention that they can easily hire a lot of ordinary 逍遥天境 experts.”
The martial arts world is not just about fighting and killing, it’s also about human relationships and social circles.
Even if Yan Bie Tian couldn’t afford to hire a Grand 逍遥境 expert himself, if he was willing to pay the price, he might be able to find those who have connections with Grand 逍遥境 experts.
“Can he hire a Divine Wandering Immortal?” Wen Nan Tian asked with a smile.
“That’s impossible.”
Wen Hu Jiu shook his head decisively. It wasn’t a matter of whether he could afford it, but whether he could find one. Since the Hundred Knowledge Hall established the four realms of martial arts, there has been no Divine Wandering 玄境 expert in the world except for Li Xian Sheng, the school’s headmaster, in Tianqi City.
“Without a Divine Wandering, even if there is a Half-Step Divine Wandering, Uncle can handle it, right?”
“You trust your Uncle this much?”
Wen Hu Jiu was full of surprise.
Wen Nan Tian’s expression became strange, “Second Uncle, don’t you remember what you said during the day?”
During the day?
‘Anything above Grand 逍遥境, I’ll handle it.’
The promise he made during the day flashed through Wen Hu Jiu’s mind, and he immediately gave an awkward smile, “Haha, I remember, I remember. Don’t worry, your Second Uncle can handle it.”
Right?
Although Wen Hu Jiu thumped his chest loudly, he was still a little unsure in his heart.
A Half-Step Divine Wandering is the closest existence to a Divine Wandering 玄境. They are not easy to deal with. Whether he could handle it, Wen Hu Jiu wasn’t so sure.
However, he couldn’t show fear in front of his nephew, could he?
“Then it’s settled. As long as Second Uncle can handle those above Grand 逍遥境, and the Yan family can’t hire a Divine Wandering 玄境, even if he can hire as many experts as he wants, I still have ten thousand swords in this Chaisang City, right?” Wen Nan Tian smiled with a profound meaning.
Borrow ten thousand swords??
These four words were all that remained in Wen Hu Jiu’s mind.
He knew that Wen Nan Tian’s scene of summoning a thousand swords at once with a shout of “Sword, come!” was not his limit, but he never imagined that his limit was actually being able to borrow ten thousand swords!
“Nan Tian…”
“Bang!”
Before Wen Hu Jiu could finish his words, Wen Nan Tian closed the door.
“Second Uncle, it’s late. Go to sleep. We can talk about anything else tomorrow.”
Wen Nan Tian’s muffled voice came from the room, apparently he had already gotten into bed.
“This stinky kid!”
Wen Hu Jiu could only suppress the shock and doubt in his heart for now, shook his head, and turned around to go back.
……
At the same time.
As Wen Nan Tian fell asleep, in a ruined temple outside Chaisang City.
Bai Li Dong Jun, Lei Meng Sha, Luo Xuan, and the others met Yan Liu Li, and after several exchanges, they were moved by the love between Yan Liu Li and Gu Luo Li, and finally decided on the plan to snatch her.
Looking at the back of the woman in a red dress as she left, Bai Li Dong Jun leaned over to Lei Meng Sha and whispered, “With all due respect, she’s a little bit...weird.”
Lei Meng Sha shivered, and secretly pointed at Yan Liu Li’s back, “A woman who is full of resentment and ambition in her heart, what kind of normality can you expect from her?”
At this time, Yan Liu Li, who had already turned and left, seemed to have heard the discussion behind her, and suddenly stopped.
“Right.”
The two people who had been gossiping behind her back immediately sat up straight, with an expression of listening attentively.
Yan Liu Li said without turning around, “You need to be clear, the one playing chess is not my brother, Yan Bie Tian, but me, Yan Liu Li.”
“And, my intuition tells me that my brother’s audacity is undoubtedly backed by a force, a stronger force.”
After saying that, Yan Liu Li left without looking back, leaving the four people behind looking at each other.
After she was completely gone, Luo Xuan said with a mischievous smile, “You guys, if you want to gossip, at least wait until they are gone before you say it. It’s quite embarrassing to be heard, isn’t it?”
Hearing his words, Lei Meng Sha and Bai Li Dong Jun chuckled.
Seeing this, Luo Xuan smiled helplessly, these two really hit it off. “You heard what Yan Liu Li said just now, what do you think?”
“Yan Bie Tian suddenly went crazy, directly teaming up with Gu Wu Ye of the Gu family to kill Gu Luo Li. It seems logical on the surface, but it’s actually a bit suspicious. As for what force gave Yan Bie Tian such confidence, it’s not easy to investigate.” Lei Meng Sha shook his head. They all had this speculation, but the force behind it was deeply hidden.
Unless their old Seven, the Wind Flower Gongzi, Xiao Ruo Feng, could find out, otherwise, even if they knew, there was nothing they could do.
“Then let’s put this aside for now, I have another question.” Luo Xuan nodded, looking at Bai Li Dong Jun, who was frowning and thinking. “Brother Bai, I have a question for you. Your cousin is surnamed Wen, what is his relationship to the Wen family of Lingnan?”
Previously at the Donggui Tavern, they were just acquaintances, so they couldn’t ask more because Wen Nan Tian was present.
Now, Luo Xuan took this opportunity to solve his doubts.
