Chapter 1020 – The Crowd’s Attitude
The people of the Dragon Emperor Clan wore astounded expressions.
They did not expect Qin Nan to acquire the succession of the Half-God Tomb, and even find the treasure left by the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch as well.
They soon recovered from the astonishment. It turned out that the Thousand Light Saber Monarch, Martial Monarch Huo Ling, and the others were there to apply pressure to the Dragon Emperor Clan.
Qin Nan who was mending his wounds slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with an icy expression.
The Two-Starred Factions of the Middle Continent had shown their true colors. Any morals, principles, respect, fairness, etc. no longer mattered when something profitable was at stake. All they would do was to come and rob it unreasonably.
“In simple words, your factions have decided to come together and bully our Dragon Emperor Clan, right?” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast wore a mocking grin.
The Thousand Light Saber Monarch, Martial Monarch Huo Ling, and the others remained silent.
“Alright, a single beast monarch won’t be enough to make the decision. I’ll have to see the entire faction’s opinion on it.”
The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast turned around and said to the crowd of the Dragon Emperor Clan, “I believe everyone has heard it clearly. Show me your decision, those who don’t agree that we should hand over the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch’s treasure, please raise your hand!”
“Wait!” At that instant, the Thousand Light Saber Monarch suddenly interrupted.
“You have something else to say?” The Nine-Tailed Beast Monarch squinted her eyes slightly, which emitted a cold flicker.
The Thousand Light Saber Monarch uttered a hollow laugh as his eyes scanned the crowd, before he said in a calm tone, “Everyone, do think carefully before raising your hand. Keep in mind that I do have a good memory, thus I will make sure I remember what you all look like right at this moment. I’ll also tell the other factions as well.”
He continued after a brief pause, “Your decision will decide if you are our friend or enemy…”
The Peak Leaders, elders, and disciples were startled hearing the words.
It was obvious that the Thousand Light Saber Monarch was threatening them!
However, before the Thousand Light Saber Monarch could finish, a cold voice could be heard, “Senior Beast Monarch, I disagree!”
The owner of the voice was none other than Mu Mu.
Even when facing the Thousand Light Saber Monarch, Martial Monarch Huo Ling, and the others, her glamorous face showed no sign of fear, as she raised her hand high up in the air.
“You?”
The faces of the Thousand Light Saber Monarch, Martial Monarch Huo Ling, and the others became dark.
The eyes of the Peak Leaders, elders, and disciples of the Dragon Emperor Clan glistened as well. They all knew that the Thousand Light Saber Monarch was being completely serious. Was it worth it for them to offend the other factions because of Qin Nan?
“Senior Monarch Beast, I, Hua Dichen disagree too!” At that instant, a roar could be heard coming from the distance, which turned out to be Hua Dichen who had just made it back.
The people of the Dragon Emperor Clan were stunned.
They clearly knew the hostile relationship between the two. Why would Hua Dichen choose to support Qin Nan instead of the opposite?
Qin Nan was stunned too, who suddenly recalled the fact that Hua Lie had tried to stop the elders when he had escaped from the Worriless Boat.
“How could I allow you humans to bully the people of our Dragon Emperor Clan? I would disagree even if he were only an outer disciple!”
Hua Dichen arrived beside Mu Mu and raised his hand high in the air without any sign of fear.
He hated Qin Nan, and he had tried to kill him too, but his father had said it right; regardless of the conflict between them, they would never allow any outsider to bully him!
The crowd of the Dragon Emperor Clan shuddered, as Hua Dichen’s words struck deep into their souls.
“Senior Monarch Beast, I disagree!” The Mentoring Elder stepped forward.
“Senior Monarch Beast, disciple Ao Dongfang disagree too. Trying to threaten us? Screw you!” Ao Dongfan stepped forward with a face filled with battle intent.
“Senior Monarch Beast, the Peak Leader of the Battle Dragon Peak disagrees!”
“Senior Monarch Beast, the Peak Leader and the people of the Phoenix Peak disagree!”
“Senior Monarch Beast——”
One figure after another stepped forward while uttering a thunderous yell with a firm expression.
Qin Nan was stunned. Many among the crowd were complete strangers to him. He did not even know what their names were, or had yet to see them before.
However, they had decided to stand out despite facing the pressure from thirty-five factions.
A while later, everyone had made their decision. Apart from a few, everyone had raised their hands into the air, which resulted in a spectacular sight when looked at from a distance away.
The Dragon Emperor Clan had united as a whole!
The Thousand Light Saber Monarch, Martial Monarch Huo Ling, and the rest of the elders were startled. They never thought the people of the Dragon Emperor Clan would choose to go against thirty-five factions for someone insignificant like Qin Nan!
Were they out of their minds?
While withholding his anger, the Thousand Light Saber Monarch spoke with a hollow laugh, “Very well, I have to say that I’m very impressed today. However, I will give you all one last chance. Every single one of you will be given ten thousand Monarch Crystals and a Monarch Spiritual Pill if you hand us the treasure of the Heaven-Shattering Martial Monarch, and you will still be regarded as our friends, how’s that?”
He began to promise them benefits when the initial threatening did not work.
Giving everyone ten thousand Monarch Crystals and a Monarch Spiritual Pill was definitely considered a great fortune. After all, they only needed to lower their hands.
Besides, on second thought, handing them the treasure did not really mean giving it out, as they could still send someone to compete for it.
“How’s that?” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast suddenly uttered a blossoming laugh, “It’s actually not too hard to let Qin Nan hand over the treasure, why are you making it so complicated. I do have a suggestion here, would you want to listen to it?”
“Senior Monarch Beast!”
“You…”
The crowd of the Dragon Emperor Clan was startled, but the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast continued to stare at the Thousand Light Saber Monarch and the others.
What a cunning old fox!
The Thousand Light Saber Monarch and the rest cursed in their hearts. They finally understood that the Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast had been waiting for them to pay some price all along!
“Hehe, Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast, feel free to say it.” The Thousand Light Saber Monarch said with a calm smile.
“I believe even a real Martial Monarch Realm expert would not dare to go against a formation consisting of two clones of Martial Monarch Realm experts and thirty-three peak Martial Progenitor Realm elders.” The Nine-Tailed Monarch Beast wore a charming smile as she spoke, “As everyone knows, our chief loves to battle. We’ll give you the treasure after you fight our chief for a hundred rounds.”
As soon as she finished her speech…
BANG!
A formidable dragon might instantly filled the sky above the Dragon Emperor Clan.
The Dragon Emperor had arrived in person!
