Even if Li Shuo was not good at teaching his disciples like Qin Tian, at least his son was more talented than Qin Tian’s son.

Qin Tian was startled.

He wondered how his kid was doing in the Nine Heavens.

“It’s not that, but I have no idea where he is now,” Qin Tian shook his head and said.

Even though he liked to mention Qin Nan, he had only brought up the awkward incidents Qin Nan was involved in, or how Qin Nan was wooden and slow of speech in certain areas. He never talked about Qin Nan’s cultivation and achievements.

He was getting older. He no longer had any plans to pursue a higher level of cultivation. He just wanted to be a teacher.

He would not bother achieving the Martial Progenitor Realm if it wasn’t to extend his lifespan.

Li Shuo said in a mocking tone, “A father who doesn’t know where his son is. It sounds like you have an unfilial son. Forget it, there’s no point asking your son to come then.”

Qin Tian’s face immediately turned cold, “Cultivator Li Shuo, if you say my son is unfilial again, I’m afraid I will have to fall out with you!”

He was not fussed about other things, but he would not allow anyone to vilify his son.

Li Shuo scoffed, “What about it? Did I say it wrong? If your son is filial, he would have told you where he went…”

A voice interrupted before he could finish, “Father, I’m back.”

Qin Nan and Gong Yang came from the distance.

Qin Tian was startled. He slowly raised his head.

His hand began to tremble when he saw Qin Nan. An indescribable feeling arose in his heart.

That little assh***, he’s really back!

“How did you end up like this?” Qin Tian withheld his emotions and asked upon collecting his thoughts.

“It’s just the effects after I practice some Martial Arts. It’s not a big deal,” Qin Nan explained.

“Then…”

Qin Nan was about to say something when Li Shuo interrupted, “What a coincidence, we were just saying how unfilial you are, and you’re back.”

The disdain in his eyes thickened.

He assumed Qin Tian’s son was extremely ordinary, thus Qin Tian purposely claimed he had no clue where Qin Nan was since he did not want to bring Qin Nan to his son’s party. Qin Tian was worried that people might be comparing between them.

“I’m indeed unfilial to only return to see my father now,” Qin Nan said softly.

Li Shuo waved his hand and said, “Let’s not talk about that, Qin Tian has always praised you, may I know which faction you are from?”

Since when did Qin Tian praise him…

Qin Nan murmured in his heart, but he still answered with a smile, “I’m currently a core disciple of the Sky Taihuang Sect.”

Li Shuo frowned, “Sky Taihuang Sect? What faction is that? The name does sound very imperious, but I bet it’s a faction in a different continent!”

He soon exclaimed, “Oh Qin Tian, you should really talk some sense into your son. There’s no point wasting his time in these little factions. A young man like him should join a formidable faction to look for more opportunities.”

“If your son’s talent or cultivation isn’t good enough, that’s fine, I’ll tell my son to recommend him so he can join the Dabei Sect as an outer disciple.”

Gong Yang chuckled after failing to hold the urge back.

The Sky Taihuang Sect, one of the fourteen Supreme Daoism factions in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, had suddenly become an insignificant faction in Li Shuo’s eyes.

He wondered what the disciples of the Sky Taihuang Sect would think if they knew about it.

Qin Nan waved his hand and said, “That won’t be necessary. Besides, Cultivator Li Shuo, I’ve only come back to reunite with my father. Can I ask you to leave?”

Li Shuo was displeased by the words.

He was being kind enough to give the young man an opportunity, yet not only did he turn it down, he was asking him to leave too?

“You seriously have no idea how great of an opportunity it is!”

Li Shuo twisted his lips and flung his sleeves as he left.

There was no point in staying any longer.

“Qin Nan, you should be more respectful toward the elderly, why did you talk to him like that?”

Qin Tian rolled his eyes and said, “Well, that guy is pretty annoying indeed. Alright, let’s not talk about it. Come with me inside and tell me everything you’ve been through.”

The three brewed tea and chatted after going inside.

Qin Tian was restless for the rest of the day when he heard Princess Miao Miao and Jiang Bilan had come back to life. He then scolded Qin Nan for a few hours.

He was basically saying that how Qin Nan had already let them down, yet he did not immediately marry them after they came back to life and have some kids to continue the family line. Qin Nan had a huge headache from it, yet he did not dare to say a word.

Qin Tian only spared him after he swore a few oaths.

Qin Nan forgot the fierce tide he was going to face soon and everything else. He accompanied Qin Tian without going anywhere to enjoy the peaceful time.

Two days later, Gong Yang and Xiao Yan suddenly showed up.

“Qin Nan, I’m afraid we’ll have to leave for some time,” Gong Yang said with a dark expression.

“Mm? What happened?”

Qin Nan was puzzled. His eyelids jumped when he thought of something. He said, “Don’t tell me it’s about Longhu and Sima Kong?”

Gong Yang let out a sigh and rubbed his forehead. He said, “That’s right, I was going to invite them over yesterday, but they did something insane yesterday.”

Xiao Yan said with a wry smile, “What they did was quite insane indeed. Yesterday, the daughter of the Tai’a Heaven Palace’s patriarch, the Great Yufeng and the son of Dabei Sect’s patriarch were settling a marriage.”

“However, on the night of the betrothal, Longhu took the virginity of the Great Yufeng’s daughter. Sima Kong also stole one of the five great treasures of the Tai’a Heaven Palace. He even dug up the graves of three past patriarchs.”

Qin Nan’s lips twitched vigorously.

Sleeping with the hostess on the night of the betrothal?

Stealing one of the five great treasures and even dug up the graves of the past patriarchs?

Xiao Yan said, “The whole Sacred Emperor Continent is startled. The Tai’a Heaven Palace and the Dabei Sect were enraged. They sent out countless experts after the two and even put up a bounty for it.”

Qin Nan rolled his eyes and said, “Those two are so good at stirring up troubles. Just leave them be.”

Xiao Yan shook his head.

Gong Yang said helplessly, “It’s fine as it is now, but the Dabei Sect and Ta’a Heaven Palace were unwilling to give up despite the incident. They are going to hold the wedding in advance, and it’s tomorrow.”

“I don’t know the exact details, but the way Brother Xiao and I see it, I’m afraid Longhu has seriously fallen in love with the Great Yufeng’s daughter.”

“Knowing his personality, I’m afraid he might…”

Qin Nan raised his brows, “You’re telling me…he’s going to kidnap the bride?”

Gong Yang nodded in silence.

The situation was very clear. Longhu and Sima Kong might possess outstanding cultivation and capabilities that even the Sacred Emperor could not do anything to them.

However, they still did not stand a chance against the combined strength of the Tai’a Heaven Palace and Dabei Sect.

If they tried to kidnap the bride, it was obvious what was going to happen.

Besides, despite the scandal, the Tai’a Heaven Palace and Dabei Sect still insisted to hold the wedding in advance. It was very likely that they were doing so to lure Longhu and Sima Kong into a trap.
