Chapter 364 Hunting 1
"I'm convinced, I, Tian Tai, am convinced."
Tian Tai lay on his back, he had tried his best, but he still couldn't stop Zheng Qian from taking away their spirit crystals.
“Zheng Qian, my Vajra Sect punishes evil and promotes good. The disciples in the sect are upright and honest, and every one of them is a good man. They are all children from poor families. They came out this time hoping to buy some advanced cultivation techniques, but they did not expect to be robbed by you. If my Vajra Sect falls, the entire sect will fight you to the death.”
Tian Tai shed tears. The Vajra Sect's income came entirely from the hard-earned money of its members through their own labor. They did not establish any power bases to collect protection fees from the people, which is why the sect was very poor.
Tian Tai brought the sect's savings of thirty years with him, hoping to buy a better cultivation technique to strengthen the sect. Unexpectedly, Zheng Qian appeared out of nowhere and robbed them of their savings.
Zheng Qian stopped and examined the bag he had taken from Tian Tai. Inside were thirty mid-grade spirit crystals and one hundred low-grade spirit crystals.
"What kind of cultivation technique can you buy with such a small amount of money?" Zheng Qian asked, puzzled. What kind of cultivation technique could be so cheap?
Tian Tai blushed and said stiffly, "If I can't buy the cultivation technique, I can buy some medicine."
Whoosh. The money bag flew into Tian Tai's hand. Zheng Qian wouldn't even bother taking such a small amount of money.
“I’ll show you a clear path: relocate your entire sect to fifty countries. This is your sect’s chance to rise.”
Tian Tai looked incredulous: "The fifty countries are the poorest and most backward, even worse than my Vajra Sect. Wouldn't we be even poorer if we went there?"
"I want to develop fifty countries, and then it won't be the poorest place. If you don't go now, you won't be able to afford it in the future." Zheng Qian was very confident. He wanted to develop fifty countries, and then those fifty countries would definitely become powerful.
Tian Tai fell silent. He had witnessed Zheng Qian's extraordinary talent firsthand. As long as Zheng Qian lived, countless powerful figures would invest in his growth. Not to mention anything else, Yun Youzi's wealth alone could elevate fifty kingdoms several levels.
The two Spirit Crystal Mountains outside are the best proof.
Besides, would the fifty kingdoms really be as poor as legend suggests, given that they could produce a prodigy like Zheng Qian?
Tian Tai didn't believe it.
Gritting his teeth, Tian Tai said, "The disciples of the Vajra Sect will not abandon their families. The entire sect has more than three thousand disciples, and their families number in the tens of thousands. Can fifty countries accommodate them?"
Zheng Qian took out five hundred low-grade spirit crystals from his spatial ring and tossed them into Tian Tai's hand. He said calmly, "There are several princes from fifty countries outside. You can go to whichever country you want to develop your career in. This is for travel expenses and settling-in allowance. Similarly, it's up to you whether you go or not."
Tian Tai stared blankly at the two money bags in his hands. Zheng Qian not only didn't rob him, but also gave him travel expenses and a resettlement allowance.
"Friendly people who come to the Fifty Kingdoms will be treated to wine and meat. Wicked people who come to the Fifty Kingdoms will be met with swords and spears. All friendly friends who wish to settle or travel in the Fifty Kingdoms, whether mortals, cultivators or soul masters, will be protected by the Fifty Kingdoms."
After Zheng Qian finished speaking, he glanced at a lush tree to the north and disappeared into the downpour.
"Kill!" You Laohu roared from afar. By the time he descended from the sky, Tian Tai and the others had all gotten up and were preparing to leave Qianfeng Mountain.
"Tian Tai, where is Zheng Qian?" You Laohu blocked Tian Tai's path.
"I'm leaving." After saying that, Tian Tai walked past You Laohu without giving him a friendly look.
The Vajra School is very tough.
You Laohu realized something was wrong. The Vajra Sect was very tough, but the Leopard Dragon Sect and the Qilin Evil Sect were not. They all seemed unwilling to talk, which was very abnormal.
Zheng Qian's noble character had won over the geniuses of the three sects. They finally understood one thing: Zheng Qian robbed them of their money, cultivation techniques, and weapons not for himself, but for the sake of the fifty kingdoms.
When Dongfang Yifeng and Ye Lanshuang arrived, You Laohu was sitting on a rock, getting soaked in the rain, lost in thought.
"Do you think Zheng Qian knows some kind of sorcery?" You Laohu was completely bewildered. He could understand why the Vajra Sect wouldn't reveal Zheng Qian's whereabouts, given their strong stance. But the Qixie Sect ignoring him was very unusual.
The Qixie Sect is an affiliated force of the Nanyeji Sect. If they don't curry favor with us, why would they switch sides and join Zheng Qian or the Tianmai Sect?
"He doesn't use sorcery; he conquered them with his personal charm." Dongfang Yifeng recounted how Zheng Qian defeated Ding Yu with half a punch, adding that Zheng Qian didn't kill anyone and even gave those seriously injured pills.
"Although Zheng Qian is ruthless, he has his own principles and high moral character." Wu Ye emerged from the darkness. The glance Zheng Qian had given when he left was the spot where he was hiding.
In other words, Zheng Qian had already discovered him.
“If we don’t unite, he will defeat us one by one, and we will eventually become the stepping stones for his fame.” Dongfang Yifeng was very calm. He said that Ding Yu was defeated by half a punch, and he believed that You Laohu knew the seriousness of the matter.
None of their factions possessed the strength to challenge Zheng Qian one-on-one. Without unity, their fate was sealed: defeat.
"Could he be stronger than Li Zun?" You Laohu couldn't believe it. Li Zun was already the ceiling of the Dragon Shaping Realm. If Zheng Qian was stronger than Li Zun, then the Tianmai Sect would truly be on top of the world. For the next few hundred or even a thousand years, the Southern Region would be ruled by the Tianmai Sect.
Although the Heavenly Vein Sect still holds the reins, their efforts offer hope. However, Zheng Qian is stronger than Li Zun, so their hope will turn into despair.
Wu Ye's face turned ashen, and he said coldly, "It's not that he's stronger than Li Zun, but that he's much stronger than Li Zun wearing the Nine Dragons Gauntlets."
Yu Laohu's pupils contracted. Li Zun, wearing the Nine Dragons Gauntlets, was a force to be reckoned with, capable of slaying gods and demons alike. Yu Laohu didn't even dare to say he could withstand three moves from Li Zun. He hadn't expected Zheng Qian to be stronger than Li Zun. Did that mean he was nothing but a weakling in front of Zheng Qian?
"Impossible, right? Li Zun wearing boxing gloves must be the ceiling of the Dragon Shaping Realm in terms of combat power. He is much stronger than Li Zun. Isn't he on the same level as the Great Sage Equaling Heaven in the Twin Absolute Domains?" You Laohu still doubted that Zheng Qian's combat power was exaggerated by them.
Suddenly, the four looked at each other and shouted in unison, "Zheng Qian is the Monkey King!"
"Damn it, You Haoshen is Zheng Qian, and the Great Sage Equal to Heaven is also Zheng Qian. We've all been played by him." You Laohu was furious. He had never understood why the Great Sage Equal to Heaven would help the genius of the Southern Region in the Twin Absolute Domains. He never expected that the Great Sage Equal to Heaven was Zheng Qian.
Tiger You, having figured out the key point, was even more furious. The fake You Haoshen had been robbing various races of prodigies, not even sparing the prodigies of the Radiant Legion. After all that trouble being attacked in the Twin Absolute Domains and still unable to find out who You Haoshen really was, it turned out to be Zheng Qian.
"This is too much! Zheng Qian is too much!" You Laohu was so angry that his nose was crooked. Before entering the Twin Absolute Domain, he had declared that he would challenge Zheng Qian. He never expected that Zheng Qian would play him and You Haoshen for fools from the very beginning.
Wiping the rain off his face and flicking it to the ground, You Laohu, filled with murderous intent, coldly said, "You can keep Zheng Qianling Crystal, but he's mine."
