The Peerless Emperor

Chapter 859: Grudges and Enmity



"What does this mean?" Wei Wushuang carefully looked at the disciple in front of him, wanting to find out something from the other's mouth.

Seeing Wei Wushuang's nervous expression, Lin Qian found it somewhat amusing and slowly spoke, "Master, you don't need to hide it anymore. Xinxin's master has already told her everything. Do you think your disciple would not know?"

"What, how could she do that!" Wei Wushuang exclaimed in shock, and then, in resignation, sat down heavily, holding his forehead, speechless.

The story goes that Wei Wushuang was once pursuing a woman.

However, this woman did not care for Wei Wushuang, and she also knew about the matters of the Sea Spiral Star Domain, as well as the conditions for bearing the holy destiny in the Sea Spiral Holy Institute created by Wei Wushuang.

The woman had mentioned that in such a place, it was simply impossible for someone to fulfill Wei Wushuang's conditions. If someone actually did, she would marry him.

In fact, this matter had always been a thorn in Wei Wushuang's mind, to the extent that later he no longer pursued that woman.

But this matter lingered in his heart until that woman actually married someone else.

And the man who married that woman even mocked Wei Wushuang, saying that the lifelong bet between him and the woman could never be fulfilled.

Thus, the woman saw no need to waste her time on an impossible bet and got married.

After this incident, Wei Wushuang was filled with hatred, and it became his inner demon.

Learning about it, Lin Qian also felt very angry; after all, Wei Wushuang was his master.

If his master were insulted and ridiculed, it was akin to insulting him.

Though he disdained the holy destiny, helping his master was no problem.

Therefore, he decided to complete all the challenges originally set by Wei Wushuang, bear the holy destiny, and fulfill that bet.

Once that bet is fulfilled, how could the woman and her husband, who mocked his master, have any face?

Wei Wushuang sighed; such a thing was discovered by his disciple. How embarrassing!

"Don't worry, Master. I will regain your honor," Lin Qian said, smiling at Wei Wushuang in front of him, "The fixed evaluation task has been completed by your disciple, making history."

At this moment, Wei Wushuang also raised his head, calmed his mood, and looked at him with a peculiar expression, "Speaking of this, I really... suspect that I might have taken in an extraordinary disciple, to complete that fixed evaluation."

In fact, after setting this fixed evaluation task, Wei Wushuang later regretted it, feeling it was absurdly difficult, almost impossible to complete.

Thus, the surprise Lin Qian gave him after completing it was unparalleled.

If the fixed evaluation task can be completed, then fulfilling the conditions for bearing the holy destiny cannot be impossible.

"Alright, you may take your time here, Master. Your disciple needs to go cultivate." With that, Lin Qian waved goodbye to Wei Wushuang and turned to leave the courtyard, descending below.

Watching Lin Qian leave the courtyard, Wei Wushuang gave a bitter smile, scratching his head constantly, apparently still feeling quite embarrassed. How could he not feel embarrassed having such a thing known by his disciple?

After leaving the courtyard, Lin Qian returned to the paved square.

Everyone gathered around in concern, but Lin Qian waved them off, saying it's nothing, just focus on cultivation.

However, before heading to cultivate, everyone curiously observed their surroundings, feeling something was off.

"Strange, why does the concentration of Spiritual Energy in this place seem to have increased?"

"Indeed, the concentration of Spiritual Energy has increased quite a bit, and it seems to be slowly rising."

Lin Qian remained silent, subtly giving a thumbs-up towards the sky. High above, standing at the edge of the floating island, Wei Wushuang smiled slightly, then disappeared from sight.

With Wei Wushuang's covert assistance, their gains from this journey to the Saint Land would be even greater.

"Is it Uncle Master again?" Only Ye Xin, who knew the truth, came to Lin Qian's side and gently asked.

To this, Lin Qian also secretly nodded, "That's right, since Master has already made a move, I must go see him. By the way, I'll tell him that I will contend for the holy destiny."

"For that bet, huh? I never thought Uncle Master was involved in something like that." Hearing that Lin Qian would compete for the holy destiny, she immediately understood the situation and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh lightly.

To this, Lin Qian could only helplessly shrug, "Such things, done in passing, are easy and harmless."

Afterwards, Lin Qian and Ye Xin sat on the ground, entering a state of cultivation. The Sea Spiral Saint Land was a holy land for cultivation, and time was too precious to waste.

However, Lin Qian did not know that his actions had already shaken the entire Saint Institute.

Almost everyone knew that within the Saint Land, Lin Qian, with a single shout, caused three inner academy students' realms to fall, expelling them from the Saint Land, permanently disallowing entry.

Upon hearing the news, every inner academy student was stunned.

Many people worried that, if they encountered Lin Qian in the Saint Land, they would be doomed.

While everyone was worried, the Sea Spiral Holy Institute made an announcement explaining the incident and its reasons, clearly stating...

"Inside the Saint Land, there must be no disputes or harmful actions. Ke An, Tang Qing, and Long Rusheng, having been instigated, deliberately harmed the external academy Huaxia Alliance students' cultivation journey in the Saint Land. This punishment is given as a warning to all students."

After the Saint Institute published the incident and its reasons, everyone understood and felt at ease.

It was clear, if no attempts were made to harm Lin Qian and the others' Saint Land cultivation, there would be no repercussions.

Many originally sympathized with Ke An but now only sneered.

As an inner academy student, to listen to an external academy student's instructions to harm another external academy student, and then shamelessly cry injustice after punishment, such a person deserved it.

As for the Overlord Hall, they remained silent, but it was obvious they had no way of targeting the Huaxia Alliance in the Saint Land anymore.

Once the Huaxia Alliance members came out of the Saint Land, their strength would surely increase, and a conflict between them was inevitable.

In many hearts, there was great anticipation; who would emerge victorious?

"Do you think that when the Huaxia Alliance comes out, they will launch a Saint Institute war against the Overlord Hall?"

"Very likely, however, the Overlord Hall is not to be underestimated, being one of the top forces among the external academy students, with the potential to be stable external overlords."

"Regardless, there will be a good show to watch. Even if the Huaxia Alliance doesn't start a Saint Institute war against the Overlord Hall, the Overlord Hall will initiate one."

"Indeed, the hatred between the Overlord Hall and the Huaxia Alliance has formed and must be resolved. If not now, it will be too late."
