Chapter 582: Chapter 0386 Prince Zhao Chapter 582: Chapter 0386 Prince Zhao Chapter 0386: Prince Zhao
Qi Tian paid no heed to Deng Chuanliang’s dissatisfaction with the environnt. When he erged from the tent, he had already dispelled his Heavenly Gang Transformation Skills and returned to his original form. Deng Chuanliang was a bit surprised by this, but he quickly accepted the changes. After all, he himself possessed similar skills and often used them to disguise his identity. It was not surprising that Qi Tian, with his Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivating resources, dared to venture into Wanjie City – a place rampant with Nascent Soul Old Monsters and Gold Core powerhouses. Moreover, spending tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones could not be possible without any ans of self-protection.
When he erged from the tent, Qi Tian called over Lu Jingfei, Xu Jifa, and Wang Xiuwu, and pointed to Deng Chuanliang, saying to them, “This is Deng. From now on, like you, we’re all part of the sa team.”
Looking at Deng Chuanliang, who appeared frail and seed as though he could die at any mont, Lu Jingfei and the others were sowhat taken aback as to why Qi Tian would bring back such an old man. However, they dared not question Qi Tian and could only accept what was happening. The three of them greeted Deng Chuanliang with a respectful salute.
With an arrogant expression, Deng Chuanliang simply nodded at them in return. He was a Gold Core Third Level expert and was not soone Lu Jingfei and the other Pseudo Core Realm cultivators could match. It might not be exaggerating to compare the difference between them to the gap between pure-blooded royal family mbers and commoners.
There was a bit of dissatisfaction amongst Lu Jingfei and the others, but they didn’t dare voice their complaints.
Qi Tian said, “Deng is a Gold Core powerhouse; show him due respect. And Deng, don’t oppress them. They’re my confidants and have been following for a much longer ti than you have.”
Upon learning that Deng Chuanliang was a Gold Core powerhouse, Lu Jingfei and the others were imdiately taken aback and quickly suppressed their dissatisfaction. Deng Chuanliang also set aside his contempt for Lu Jingfei and the others. After all, he had to rely on Qi Tian for a living in the years to co, and listening to his words was a necessity.
Qi Tian asked, “Nothing special happened while I was away, did it?”
Xu Jifa said, “Nothing in particular happened. Most of the people who had been kneeling in front of the County Master Mansion have dispersed. Only Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi are still kneeling outside, stating they wouldn’t budge until you personally pardon them.”
Qi Tian chuckled, saying, “They’re taking advantage of my kindness. Let’s go and have a look.”
Qi Tian led the way, with Deng Chuanliang, Lu Jingfei, and their group following suit, heading towards the outside of County Master Mansion. Now, the mansion was essentially in ruins, with its boundaries marked only by the Four Symbols Array’s defensive barrier. This was all a result of the Great Elder Chen Chen leading a false Mansion Master back.
The primary responsibility of this incident, of course, lay with the Great Elder Chen Chen. He was mainly in charge of the affair, and the false Mansion Master was brought back by him. Moreover, having followed the Mansion Master Xiao Xiaowu for so many years, he should be able to tell the real Mansion Master from the fake. It was unacceptable for him to be unable to do so.
However, delving further into it, Qi Tian also bore so responsibility, as he had overestimated so individuals’ bottom lines. In his view, sending the Great Elder Chen Chen to the capital would at most result in failing to find Mansion Master Xiao Xiaowu. But he hadn’t expected certain conniving individuals to dare to impersonate Mansion Master Xiao Xiaowu, one of the three National Masters. This disrespect for the Imperial Master Mansion and the Great Zhao law was akin to posing as an emperor. Such actions were unacceptable and showed they had absolutely no bottom line.
Reflecting on this, Qi Tian decided to venture to Wanjie City to seek the support of Gold Core powerhouses – one of his main reasons being that he could no longer idly wait. He didn’t know what further reckless acts could transpire if he continued waiting.
When Qi Tian erged from the County Master Mansion, he noticed Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi kneeling side by side, their spines rigid and faces showing signs of regret. Passersby pointed at them from afar. Normally, the two might have killed those who dared point at them out of anger. But now, they calmly accepted the pointing and mocking.
First, Qi Tian walked up to Hao Wenxi, saying indifferently, “Stand up. Do you think that kneeling here and humiliating yourself can atone for your sins? You’re disgracing the Imperial Master Mansion. We need to establish a foothold in Lubei County in the future. If you continue like this, we’ll lose all face.”
Hao Wenxi trembled and imdiately bowed to Qi Tian, saying, “Your subordinate obeys your command.” She then hurriedly stood up.
Qi Tian then walked up to Luo Xia, but this ti, he didn’t ask him to stand up first. Instead, he circled around him three tis, clicking his tongue. Luo Xia felt extrely ashad and lowered his head without uttering a word.
Not far away, Lu Jingfei was explaining the background of the situation to Deng Chuanliang through a voice transmission spell. Deng Chuanliang’s eyes filled with disdain as he looked at Luo Xia and Hao Wenxi. If he had nurtured such underlings after plastic efforts and resources, he might have already killed them. Nonetheless, it also made them long for a master like Qi Tian – a master who would punish them for their mistakes. But such strictness was indeed daunting.
