Chapter 540: 0541 Ancient Earth’s Prestige (Third Update)
"Master Qian Zang, I never thought you would step onto our Huaxia lands again after so many years," said the man in the black robe indifferently.
Qian Zang took a brief look at the man in the black robe before him and suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Are you Daoist Qian Zhen?"
Ye Qiu was slightly shocked. How had Daoist Qian Zhen changed into this attire?
"Qian Zhen..." Chen Yifeng and other senior martial artists, along with Ye Qiu’s expression, were similar; none of them had expected Daoist Qian Zhen to suddenly appear.
"So you have broken through to the legendary realm, no wonder you dare to stand in my way," Qian Zang felt the extraordinary aura of Daoist Qian Zhen, sensing the legendary power surging within him.
"Master Qian Zang, you were a legendary figure even ten years ago. Facing off against the younger generation of our Huaxia now, isn’t it a bit of bullying the young?" Daoist Qian Zhen said indifferently.
"Are you trying to stop me?" Qian Zang’s tone was somewhat icy, recalling how, ten years ago, he could have destroyed Daoist Qian Zhen with a flick of his wrist, yet now this man’s strength had reached a level where he needed to pay serious attention.
"I’m not stopping you, what will stop you is this robe I’m wearing. I wonder if Master Qian Zang still insists on making a move?" said Daoist Qian Zhen slowly.
Qian Zang scoffed disdainfully, "Just because you changed into a different set of clothes, you expect me to back off? Daoist Qian Zhen, even if you too are in the legendary realm, I am not incapable of killing you."
"If you dare kill me, would you be able to live peacefully afterward? These many years seem to have lessened the deterrent of the ancient lands on you," said Daoist Qian Zhen slowly.
The ancient land...
At those words, Qian Zang’s face turned pale instantly, while the surrounding ordinary martial artists were confused, not understanding the significance of the ancient land.
Even among the top ten, only a few knew of the ancient land; most were totally clueless.
Qian Zang looked more closely at the black robe on Daoist Qian Zhen, and he saw a golden character embroidered on the chest of Daoist Qian Zhen.
Mu!
Qian Zang’s mind seemed to suddenly recall something terrifying, and he immediately retreated five steps.
"The Mu clan..." Qian Zang’s heart pounded like a ringing bell, shaking because of the character.
"I simply wanted Ye Qiu to return our country’s Divine Artifact. Please don’t take offense, envoy. Since the envoy wishes me to stop, I shall withdraw and leave Huaxia," said Qian Zang, the old monk, his attitude shifting unexpectedly, stunning everyone as the change was too abrupt for some to even react.
"Did I hear that right, Qian Zang is backing down?"
"Yes, he seems really scared of Daoist Qian Zhen now."
"Doesn’t make sense, wasn’t he still very arrogant just now? And although Daoist Qian Zhen broke through to the legendary realm, he probably isn’t as strong as him."
"Indeed, an unexpected outcome."
Discussions spread among the crowd, leaving Qian Zang’s retreat startling Sato Yanai repeatedly.
"Master Qian Zang, you can’t stop now!" Sato Yanai still wanted to persuade him. If Qian Zang didn’t make a move, who could handle Ye Qiu? But Qian Zang completely ignored Sato Yanai, already terrified by the thought of the Mu clan.
"Whatever about Divine Artifacts, I don’t care. You use Legendary realm strength to bully our homeland with no one to challenge you. If the Mu clan learns of this, you should know the consequences. Release young friend Ye Qiu’s friend immediately, or don’t blame me for reporting this to the Mu clan," declared Qian Zhen Daoist.
"Yes, yes, yes... What the envoy says is right, I’ll release them now." Qian Zang then remembered Sato Yanai, grabbing him, and said, "Quickly release those two we captured a few days ago."
Seeing Qian Zang’s intimidating stare, Sato Yanai dared not refuse and immediately instructed his subordinates to bring Chu Yao forward.
Soon, Chu Yao and Gao Ming were brought forth, their faces covered, unclear about the situation outside.
"The people have been released, envoy sir, I will take my leave now." Qian Zang made a move to leave, but Qian Zhen Daoist spoke up to stop him, "I hope not to see you again."
At that moment, Qian Zang had lost all semblance of a high monk, more like he was fleeing with his tail between his legs. Many people did not understand why he was so fearful.
From a distance, Wu Chengdao and several other young members of ancient territories, seeing Qian Zhen Daoist in a black robe, clearly understood why Qian Zang was so terrified.
"The Mu clan... so it’s an envoy from the Mu clan. This person must be a martial artist who broke into the Legendary realm and was fortunate enough to be recruited by the Mu clan, becoming an envoy. It seems these people from our homeland understand the terror of our ancient territories, and the Mu clan... is one of the three strongest families there!" said Wu Chengdao indifferently.
Speaking of the Mu clan, the five present all took it seriously, as it was a martial family even more powerful than their own, one of the strongest lineages.
"It’s just an envoy from the Mu clan, no need to pay too much attention. Although our families can’t compare with the Mu clan, we have the advantage of standing together. With our families united, even the three strongest families wouldn’t dare to act rashly," another young man said, feeling indignant.
"What our families lack is a peerless powerhouse to lead; otherwise, we would not be inferior to those three great families. Unfortunately, in recent years, the brilliance of the younger generation in our families has been overshadowed by the disciples of those three families. Otherwise, should a supreme powerhouse emerge one day, it would certainly be among the top ancient martial families."
Speaking of such a disgraceful matter, the five all sighed. Over the years, they had been diligently training from a young age, harboring great expectations from their families, but when facing the younger generation of the three strongest families, they were still utterly defeated, even some being killed, without recourse.
In the world of the strong, everything is respected based on strength alone.
The ancient and traditional territories are actually the best representation of survival of the fittest, where the weak are weeded out.
"This Ye Qiu has a decent martial talent, pity he wasn’t born in our ancient territories. With the nurture of an ancient family, he definitely could have gone further. In his life, breaking into the Legendary realm in the martial world is probably his limit. To breakthrough above the Legendary realm without a profound foundation is truly impossible," Wu Chengdao commented regretfully about Ye Qiu’s strength.
"Indeed, talent is important on the path of cultivation, but the subsequent environment is equally crucial. Even a martial genius, if stuck in an unsuitable environment for a long period, will see his talent gradually wasted away, especially here where there are no cultivation resources. It’s no wonder we seldom see young masters breaking into the Legendary realm since the environment here is so poor, simply not conducive for cultivation," another young man indifferently responded to Wu Chengdao’s words.
The two’s statements were agreed upon by everyone, feeling it was a pity that Ye Qiu had talent but lacked the best resources and environment.
"Let’s go. We thought we would witness a battle of transcendence, but it seems impossible now," someone remarked lightly, ready to leave.
The others nodded. If they didn’t return soon, their clans would discover their absence, and they would be in trouble.
The five silently departed, only the woman occasionally looking back, her smile intriguing.
