Chapter 305: Chapter 304: The Lame Trickery_1

Upon hearing Lu Yang’s words, Young Master Qin, who was initially indifferent, changed his expression.

No matter whether Lu Yang was an ancient genius or from the Heaven’s Court, it was none of his business and not within his authority to interfere.

However, Lu Yang’s claim of finding the reincarnation of Qin Haoran was unacceptable to him.

If someone else found the reincarnation of Qin Haoran, where did that leave him?

Young Master Qin had a very clear recognition of himself; his existence was for the smooth inheritance of Qin Haoran’s legacy.

Even though he was of the same age as Lu Yang and others, and already at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, his cultivation progress was faster than Lu Yang’s junior brothers and sisters.

In reality, his talent for cultivation wasn’t as good as it appeared. The higher-ups of Nine Nether sect had boosted his cultivation level to allow him to exhibit a talent corresponding to Qin Haoran’s.

Such forced growth would lead to endless problems, making future cultivation extremely difficult. Advancing to the Unification Stage would be as hard as ascending to heaven, he might be stuck for life in the Refining the Void Stage, or even a lower level.

“Who did you say is my reincarnation?” Young Master Qin stared at Lu Yang sternly, wishing he could swallow him in one gulp.

“Who are you?” Lu Yang was puzzled. Xiao Qi said that for the sake of safety, Lord Mi always went alone. So, why did he not only bring a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, but also hide a Divinity Transformation Stage bodyguard?

Whose illegitimate child was he?

“I am the reincarnation of Qin Haoran, Qin Tian!”

“Oh?” Lu Yang looked at Qin Tian, initially a little surprised. But he quickly understood with a smile that was both sarcastic and genuine.

Excluding the possibility of Qin Haoran’s soul splitting into three, it was certain that Li Haoran was the reincarnation of Qin Haoran. This self-proclaimed Qin Tian was probably a fake pushed forward by some ambitious individuals.

Perhaps it was for inheriting Qin Haoran’s legacy, or perhaps it was for the higher-ups of the Nine Nether sect to secure their line of succession early in the struggle for the leader’s position.

Regardless of the reason, none of them mattered. It would not affect the overall situation.

“You’re talking nonsense!” Qin Yanyan became furious upon hearing Qin Tian’s claims. Like an outraged cat, she sent out eight Thunder Talismans towards Qin Tian, swiftly as if shooting arrows at the sun.

Even though Qin Haoran was an unreliable father, she would never tolerate anyone impersonating her father’s reincarnation in front of her!

The talismans flashed instantly, setting off ground-shaking thunder. White thunder erupted like the dance of a Flood Dragon, fiercely crashing towards the opponent.

Qin Tian, taken aback by Qin Yanyan’s sudden rage, hurriedly responded. The Array Method beneath his feet began to rapidly rotate, launching beams of light to intercept the thunder. The thunder and light kept colliding.

What Qin Haoran was most adept at was the Array Method, and coincidentally, Qin Tian was also good at it.

The white thunder transformed into a plasma shockwave, causing an ear-splitting explosion. The real Qin Tian could barely remain steady.

Qin Yanyan followed up with her attack. She attached a Power Enhancement Talisman to herself, boosting her strength and speed to the body’s limit instantly. Using the Seven-Star Step, her figure became as elusive as a phantom. She then swept her right foot sideways.

Qin Tian formed hand seals quickly and the Array Method under his feet abruptly changed, creating a light shield in front of him.

“Ha!”

Crack-

With a shout from Qin Yanyan, she pushed harder with her foot and actually shattered the light shield.

Seizing the moment when the Array Method was ineffective, Qin Yanyan bit her fingertip, drew a talisman in mid-air, and a blood-colored rune emerged between them. The rune transformed into a string heading for Qin Tian’s neck. Qin Tian did not have time to construct an Array Method and had to block with his hand. He instantly let out a scream, his palm bleeding profusely.

Qin Yanyan stepped forward to shorten the distance and engaged in close combat with Qin Tian.

Last night, Li Haoran had nothing to do so he refined Qin Yanyan’s clothes from top to bottom. Although Qin Yanyan’s clothes seemed thin, they had become a suit of armor that cultivators at Foundation Establishment Stage could hardly penetrate.

Originally, Li Haoran had suggested to Qin Yanyan to learn from him, to shave her head and make a wig, which could be surprising during a fight, but she adamantly refused.

Seeing the situation turning ugly, Lord Mi was about to intervene but was stopped by Lu Yang, who moved to grab hold of his wrist.

“Lord Mi, do you have no faith in the reincarnation of Master Qin?”

Qin Tian and Qin Yanyan engaged in a swift exchange, and even though Qin Tian’s Array Method was somewhat brilliant, he was ultimately not proficient in close combat, gradually falling under the onslaught of Qin Yanyan’s strong offensive.

Qin Yanyan’s strength lies in talismans. Like her mother, she enjoys close combat.

Blood pouring from Qin Tian’s mouth, he steadily retreated, his entire body trembling uncontrollably. His internal organs were in turmoil. It was a result of the hidden forces Qin Yanyan had dealt him during their fight. Qin Tian pressed his palm against a tree, which then exploded, disperising the unusual hidden forces.

“Who are you!” After a short exchange, Qin Tian found himself at a disadvantage, unable to believe that despite being at the same late stage of Foundation Establishment, their fighting abilities were so different.

“Qin Yanyan.” Qin Yanyan coldly said her name without saying anything more.

Sensing Qin Yanyan’s eagerness to fight, Lu Yang reminded her discretely that there was a Divinity Transformation stage fighter lurking nearby. He warned her not to continue provoking Qin Tian since he can’t guarantee that the aforementioned person wouldn’t interfere.

Only then did Qin Yanyan withdraw, seething as she retreated. Li Haoran tried to comfort his former daughter and told her not to be too angry.

Meng Jingzhou discreetly said to Qin Yanyan: “Niece, why did you use your real name? Didn’t we agree that you would use a pseudonym?”

While strategizing last night, Lu Yang mentioned that in dealing with the demonic sect, they shouldn’t reveal their real identities as it could leave them vulnerable. Hence, the four of them appearing in front of Lord Mi today, have all disguised themselves and no one would be able to spot any weaknesses.

“I forgot because I was too angry,” Qin Yanyan replied somewhat sheepishly. She still lacked experience in the martial arts world and could easily be swayed by her emotions.

Lu Yang looked at Qin Tian with a smile: “You said you are the reincarnation of Master Qin, so where is your evidence?”

Qin Tian, still unsettled from Qin Yanyan’s attack, had lost his previous arrogance. But he still stood his ground and said, “I have made progress in understanding reincarnation and recollected the clues about the treasure hidden in Guhuai town.”

“Let me guess, the recollection involved the Master Qin’s buried treasure and the Guhuai tree, didn’t it?”

At this, Lord Mi, Qin Tian, and the Divinity Transformation stage figure behind Qin Tian were all taken aback.

How did the opponent know this?

Could it really be that the Heaven’s Court had found Master Qin’s reincarnation?

With a mysterious smile at the corner of his mouth, Lu Yang left the three in a state of uncertainty.

This was easy to guess. If the Nine Nether really knew where the treasure was, they would have sent someone to claim it a long time ago. They wouldn’t have waited until today.

The only logical explanation was that they knew about the clue, and the clue was somewhat vague.

What was the clue? Nothing other than the Guhuai tree.

Even if Lu Yang guessed wrong about the clue that the Nine Nether had, the clue that he mentioned was still true.

Seeing Qin Tian’s reaction, Lu Yang knew he had guessed correctly.

Lord Mi was an old hand and wouldn’t easily reveal his emotions. Qin Tian, being inexperienced, would easily be deceived.

Lord Mi tried to look calm: “This proves nothing, Guhuai Town is most famous for its Guhuai tree. If the clue has nothing to do with the Guhuai tree, does it have to do with a ghost woman then? Anyone could think of this clue after a little thought!”

“So, it appears that you only have this bit of a clue.” Lu Yang shook his head regretfully, “I didn’t expect that the once invincible Nine Nether has declined to this extent.”

“I’ve said it before, we from the Heaven’s Court have found the reincarnation of Master Qin, and the location of the treasure has been revealed by the reincarnation of Master Qin.”

“What!!!”
