Chapter 158: It's All Mr. Qin's Fault

Ye Sanshui and the others stared gobsmacked at Xiao Nanfeng. They had been forced back just from the crane's aura, but Xiao Nanfeng had easily caused the entire crane to explode!

The outburst of spiritual power caused waves to swell in the sea all around them. Ye Sanshui suddenly gained an understanding of Xiao Nanfeng's monstrous strength that went far beyond the likes of his.

Xiao Nanfeng paid no heed to their gasps; he continued activating the Immortal's Destruction time and time again.

Golden swords struck the Isle of Nalan like meteors, causing the cracks in the protective mist to propagate. It looked as though the array was about to break down at any moment.

"Senior Brother, the elders of Taiqing Island are flying over!" Ye Sanshui cried out.

From afar, countless figures in black were heading straight toward the Isle of Nalan, moving so quickly that the water parted beneath them.

Xiao Nanfeng frowned as he launched attacks with the Immortal's Destruction more and more quickly.

The protective mist around the island finally exploded, transforming into a raging storm.

Instantly, Xiao Nanfeng noticed Nalan Feng and Mr. Qin on a plaza not too far away. His eyes cold, he sent another attack from the Immortal's Destruction straight toward them.

"Insolence!" an incensed shout came from behind Xiao Nanfeng, but it was already too late. The attack shot toward the two cultivators on the plaza. Nalan Feng tried to avoid it, only to find that its target was Mr. Qin

"Hold it!" Nalan Feng cried out. Just as the attack was about to strike Mr. Qin's unconscious body, a black figure appeared before Nalan Feng, reaching toward the air and suspending the imminent blow.

"What?" Xiao Nanfeng gasped.

A black-haired, middle-aged man appeared in sight, his mien severe, his eyes stern with rage. As he squeezed, the golden blade of the Immortal's Destruction burst into a shower of qi.

Killing intent surged from the man and coalesced around Xiao Nanfeng. The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

"Disciple Ye Sanshui greets the Ascended division leader!" Ye Sanshui stepped forward and bowed down toward the man in black, forestalling the conflict.

Xiao Nanfeng's eyes widened. This was the Ascended division leader, Zhao Tianheng?

"How dare you make such a fuss here!" Zhao Tianheng shouted at Xiao Nanfeng.

Ten more figures descended from the sky amidst howling gales, surrounding Nalan Feng.

"Nalan Feng, are you alright?"

"Who dares attack the Isle of Nalan? Don't you know where you are?!"

The elders were outraged, clearly very concerned about Nalan Feng. Many of them brimmed with killing intent, causing Xiao Nanfeng's back to be drenched with sweat.

"Disciple Ye Sanshui greets the honored elders of the sect." Ye Sanshui, steadfast under pressure, bowed toward the gathered cultivators.

However, Zhao Yuanjiao didn't respond to Xiao Nanfeng. His face fell. Was something wrong?

The elders looked toward Xiao Nanfeng suspiciously.

"If Elder Zhao was unable to discern whom I was attacking, then there is no proof that I was targeting Nalan Feng," Xiao Nanfeng concluded, making the best of his situation.

Zhao Tianheng was a little surprised. He thought that Xiao Nanfeng would attempt to argue the point a little longer, but he had turned things in his favor regardless.

"Are you attempting to distort the truth now that there's no evidence?" Nalan Feng suggested.

"I am doing no such thing. It's evident that I was fighting Mr. Qin, and you were simply in the way," Xiao Nanfeng replied.

"What?"

Everyone glanced at Nalan Feng curiously. What Xiao Nanfeng had stated didn't seem to agree with what they had observed.

"If you don't believe me, Elders, I'm sure there are plenty of witnesses around," Xiao Nanfeng continued calmly.

The elders immediately did so, performing a logical investigation without blatantly favoring one side or another. Neither the guards in purple nor Ye Sanshui dared hide what they knew, and they reported everything they had witnessed.

Just then, Mr. Qin began to stir. His face was pale as he heard the witness accounts. "That's nonsense! I wasn't sparring with him. He was attacking the Isle of Nalan!"

"Mr. Qin, don't be ridiculous. The elders of the Taiqing sect have been summoned, and you won't be able to deny a thing."

"What's there to deny? I've only spoken the truth. You're the unreasonable one, and you tried to kill His Highness!" Mr. Qin shouted.

"Let me help jog your memory. I arrived at the Isle of Nalan, reporting my name and identity, then expressing my desire to meet Nalan Feng. Your guards rudely refused me, but I patiently corrected them and continued waiting for Nalan Feng. Then, you showed up. Do you contest my summary?" Xiao Nanfeng asked.

"As I said, His Highness refused to meet you, but you insisted on doing so," Mr. Qin replied.

"What I said was, 'And if I insist?' I'd appreciate it if you paraphrased me precisely, considering our circumstances. I was inquiring as to how you would resolve this matter, but you suddenly challenged me, and I accepted the challenge. You were simply a worse fighter and unable to defeat me," Xiao Nanfeng replied disdainfully.

"That's nonsense! I never challenged you," Mr. Qin cried out.

"Not only did you unleash your aura, causing the waves to buffet my ship and force it back, you provoked me by claiming that I could try attacking you. Is that not so?" Xiao Nanfeng retorted.

Mr. Qin was flabbergasted. He was only attempting to frighten Xiao Nanfeng—who would have expected him to take that invitation literally? Had Xiao Nanfeng been planning this from the beginning?

"Elders, this was a challenge made by a foreign cultivator to me on Taiqing sect lands. In order to preserve the dignity of the sect, I accepted the challenge and, fortunately, won," Xiao Nanfeng explained.

The elders gaped at Xiao Nanfeng. He was clearly attacking the Isle of Nalan, but his analysis had thoughtfully positioned him as the victim. Who would be able to argue against preserving the sect's dignity? This was a trap laid out for Mr. Qin!

"Mr. Qin? Xiao Nanfeng came to the Isle of Nalan to visit Nalan Feng as part of regular sect business. Not only did you deliberately make things difficult for Xiao Nanfeng, you even challenged him. Why did you do so?" Zhao Yuanjiao suddenly asked.

Everyone looked toward Mr. Qin.

Mr. Qin was flabbergasted. He was the victim here, and he was the one who had suffered! How had he become the instigator?
