Chapter 1603 - The Birthday Feast Begins

Following the voice, Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao and two old cultivators in the Human Immortal Realm walked in from the entrance.

The former was wearing an icy expression.

He had been in a bad mood since he was almost subdued by Qin Nan to become his mount.

On top of that, he heard from the other cultivators that Gao Yuanxian was here, thus his mood would only worsen.

He had already warned Gao Yuanxian to stay a hundred zhang away from Xu Xianzhi before.

"It's Cultivator Wan Xiao!"

"Cultivator Wan Xiao..."

Zhao Lijian immediately withdrew his aura and proceeded to receive Wan Xiao with the other experts in the hall.

Gao Yuanxian's expression shifted slightly when he saw the man that had arrived.

Although the Golden-Winged Peng Emperor was not as reputable as his father, the difference between their strength was rather minimum, since they were both Peerless Rulers.

However, Wan Xiao was a Peerless Genius too.

In simpler words, even though he was daring enough to provoke Qiu Hong, he did not have any confidence to challenge Wan Xiao.

As he was trying to come up with a plan, his eyes glittered as a thought crossed his mind. He immediately transmitted his voice, "Wan Xiao, the truth isn't what you thought it is."

Wan Xiao greeted the crowd while replying coldly, "So what it is if it isn't what I thought?"

Gao Yuanxian pretended to be furious and said, "A cultivator kept trying to stand close to Xianzhi. She was very upset, yet she was hesitant to make it clear. I asked him to leave, but he simply ignored my words."

He knew how quick-tempered Wan Xiao was. He just needed to bullshit a little to let Wan Xiao take care of Qin Nan.

"Who dares to harass Xianzhi!?"

Wan Xiao's expression turned icier as he glanced ahead.

This time, he did not transmit his thought. His voice echoed in the huge hall.

"This is going to be fun to watch!"

The experts in the hall shared the same thought.

Almost every cultivator in the Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm knew the Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao had a strong affection for Xu Xianzhi.

Gao Yuanxian and Zhao Lijian exchanged glances with a grin.

They could easily guess what was going to happen next. The Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao was surely going to take Qin Nan on!

"Qin...Qin Nan? Why is it you?"

However, when Wan Xiao saw Qin Nan, the icy expression on his face froze.

Lately, he kept remembering the scene of Qin Nan stepping on him as he attempted to subdue him as a mount. It was haunting him like a nightmare.

"Why can't I be here?"

Qin Nan remained expressionless, yet a formidable aura was bursting out from his body.

Did this Wan Xiao really need to show up when Zhao Lijian was about to proceed with his attack? It completely disrupted his plan.

"Ugh..." Wan Xiao was startled. He was suddenly lost for words.

However, his expression and his reaction totally stunned the experts, Gao Yuanxian, and Zhao Lijian in the hall.

Why did the Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao totally lose his stance against Qin Nan as if he had stumbled into his natural foe?

"You're Qin Nan? The one that killed the Underworld Prince and tried to subdue our Young Master as your..."

The two peak Human Immortals came to a halt as they realized the situation they were in. They immediately snapped murderously, "We won't let you go easily!"

The others might be unaware, but the Golden-Winged Peng Emperor had already listed Qin Nan as an enemy of their faction.

Every disciple and elder was told to take him down when they stumbled into him.

"He killed the Underworld Prince?"

The experts in the hall were dumbfounded. Even the woman in the black robe lifted her gaze as if she was surprised.

Gao Yuanxian and Zhao Lijian shared the same reaction too.

It was quite difficult for anyone to become a Peerless Genius.

As such, even when they were fighting one another, they would not go so far as killing the others.

Most importantly, it was extremely difficult for two Peerless Geniuses to determine who was stronger, as each Peerless Genius' strength was very close to the other's.

If Qin Nan was able to kill the Underworld Prince, didn't that imply his strength had surpassed that of ordinary Peerless Geniuses?

Or perhaps, he had probed the door of the Dao Realm?

"Enough talk," Qin Nan glanced at Wan Xiao and said, "Don't let me see you again. Otherwise, I'll turn you into my mount when you can no longer run away from me."

The crowd was dumbfounded once again by the words.

Did this Qin Nan just threaten to turn Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao into his mount?

Is he out of his mind?

"Do you seriously think you can turn me into your mount? I'm telling you, I'm surely going to kill you next time. Let's go!"

Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao's eyes burned with anger. He groaned and left the palace with the two peak Human Immortals.

Even though he had taken care of the sealing force that Qin Nan inserted into his body, he was only going to embarrass himself if he stayed any further.

He could not possibly do anything if Qin Nan challenged him to a duel.

"Did he just...leave?"

The experts swallowed mouthfuls of saliva upon seeing this.

No matter how they looked at it, it was obvious that Wan Xiao was lacking confidence, and was forced to run away.

If the guy had attempted to turn Wan Xiao into his mount, Wan Xiao's reaction could only imply one thing.

Wan Xiao was extremely scared of Qin Nan, as he was not confident that he could take him on!

"Not many people in the entire Shangxingtian Small Immortal Realm could force Little Peng Emperor Wan Xiao into a pinch like that."

Xu Xianzhi's eyes glittered as she transmitted her voice, "Cultivator Qin Nan, do you mind me asking if you're Empress Feiyue's successor?"

The copper mirror's successor?

Qin Nan was startled for a moment, before he burst out laughing and said, "What a joke, I will never be her successor."

Considering the copper mirror's icy personalities, wanting to be her successor was definitely going to be a torture.

"Cultivator Zhao, I'm sorry for what just happened. Can we please proceed?"

Qin Nan lifted his cup again.

"Cultivator Qin Nan, I was only trying to probe you just then. Now that I've learned how capable you are, it is no longer necessary for us to continue."

Zhao Lijian shuddered. He quickly reacted and said smilingly, "I apologize for my misbehavior. I hope Cultivator Qin didn't take it too seriously."

He clearly understood one thing, it was important to let go when necessary.

It was unwise to offend a Peerless Genius with immeasurable strength like Qin Nan over an insignificant matter.

Gao Yuanxian clenched his teeth and remained silent.

"Fine."

Qin Nan let out a sigh in disappointment.
