Chapter 2304: The Strong Joins Hands

Chapter 2304: The Strong Joins Hands

Ji Jinzi's heart shuddered. Her face instantly turned pale. She blurted out, "Qin Nan, it wasn't me. I didn't lie to you!"

Qin Nan was unconcerned. He stepped forward and said, "You are not worthy to be inside her body."

Qin Nan lifted the icy saber. Ji Jinzi felt like her heart was being stabbed. Tears burst out from her eyes.

Qin Nan's arm froze.

"Oh my, I didn't expect the Nine Dragons Seal to teleport you here. I've been looking everywhere for you."

A voice suddenly appeared, followed by an illusionary figure in the rift ahead. It smiled and said, "Oh Qin Nan, my daughter has always been very honest. She never lied to anyone, nor did she lie to you."

It was Cang's clone.

Qin Nan looked at him murderously.

"Father..."

Ji Jinzi looked at the unfamiliar face. Her expression shifted as she realized something. Tears burst out from her eyes, "Father, how can you do this? Even if you don't think of me as your daughter, how can you treat mother's soul as your pawn?"

Ji Jinzi did not lie to Qin Nan.

Not a single word.

The days she spent with Qin Nan were truly the best time she had in her life, even though she had a little regret after Qin Nan rejected her.

However, she was not stupid. She quickly understood what happened.

Her mother's soul was initially intact, but her father purposely break it apart and leave half of it in one place for Empress Feiyue to discover while the other half was kept in the Land of Distress.

His father had done it to lure Qin Nan into the Land of Distress. He would set a trap in the Land of Distress to seal off the Nine Dragons Seal.

Qin Nan, Jiaye, and Zhou Xundao were startled.

They too had realized the truth.

"Does it matter? Your mother's soul has already lost its three finer spirits. She could no longer be brought back alive. Isn't it better to use it against Qin Nan?" Cang shrugged indifferently.

"You..."

Ji Jinzi felt like an enormous hand was grabbing her soul.

Even breathing was hurting her.

The man had treated her, her mother, and everything as his pawns.

Qin Nan's murderous intent toward Ji Jinzi dissipated after seeing her reaction. He even felt sorry for her.

Her whole life had been dull, yet Cang kept hurting her over and over again.

"Cang, enough with the act, do you really think you can trick us so easily?"

Zhou Xundao said coldly, "You have just achieved the Ruler Realm twenty days ago. There's no way you have time to set this up. In other words, you have been planning it since you are in the Master Realm, but what can you possibly do when you were only a Master of Dao?"

"Besides, even at your peak, you never understood how powerful the Nine Dragons Seal is. How can you be sure the three artifacts and the formation are enough to seal off the Nine Dragons Seal?"

A lot of things did not make sense.

Cang looked down at them and said with a smile, "Old Zhou, I wasn't lying. How can you possibly see through my plan? Since I'm in a great mood, I don't mind telling you."

"I shall answer your second question first."

"It's true that I didn't know how powerful the Nine Dragons Seal is, but I used Heaven Highness Wuwang as a test."

"Knowing Qin Nan's cultivation, even if he received help from the Tribe of the Dao Apes and learned the Heart-Slaying Slash, there's no way he could erase Heaven Highness Wuwang's will. The only way to wake Tang Qingshan up is by relying on the Nine Dragons Seal."

"The Nine Dragons Seal interfered just as I thought, but it has only erased more than half of Heaven Highness Wuwang's will. What does it imply?"

"First, the Nine Dragons Seal is similar to other artifacts. Its power is restricted by its master's cultivation, thus preventing it from unleashing its power."

"Second, the Nine Dragons Seal's power isn't as terrifying as I thought."

"Why would I bring Heaven Highness Wuwang with me and not help him when Qin Nan is trying to erase his will if I wasn't trying to test it?" Cang grinned.

Qin Nan, Jiaye, and Zhou Xundao's hearts skipped a beat.

Cang had sacrificed his loyal henchman who was a Heaven Highness just to test the Nine Dragons Seal.

"Are you shocked? Do you find it hard to believe? Tsk tsk, you all really lack resolution."

Cang said with a disdainful look, "I am more familiar with the Nine Dragons Seal's power than you!"

He looked at Qin Nan and said, "You are nothing once I sealed off the Nine Dragons Seal! Even if you evolve the Impenetrable Sacred Flesh into the Indestructible Flesh of Eternity and master the Art of the Immortal Demon to merge them together, you are still no match against me."

"Therefore, losing one man to seal off the Nine Dragons Seal is nothing. I wouldn't mind losing my daughter either," Cang said indifferently.

His last sentence caused Ji Jinzi's face to turn extremely pale.

"Cang, from what you just said, it does sound logical how you test the Nine Dragons Seal and lure Qin Nan to the Land of Distress! However, you were only a Master of Dao back then. You too lack the cultivation to..."

Zhou Xundao's eyes widened as a sudden thought crossed his mind.

"HAHAHA, Old Zhou, it seems like you have finally understood it. You aren't that hopeless after all!" Cang burst out laughing.

His cultivation back then was indeed too weak to enter the Blue Heavens.

Even Eternal Night Heaven Highness could never reach the Land of Distress by himself, let alone set a trap.

However, there was one exception.

Ye Zhaoxian, one of the four Supreme Highnesses!

After Ye Zhaoxian was reborn, not only was his cultivation in the peak Ruler Realm, he had always stayed in the Blue Heavens during the ancient era too. He was the most familiar with the Blue Heavens among the four Supreme Highnesses!

"How could it be him?" Zhou Xundao was lost in his thoughts.

In the past, Ye Zhaoxian always hated Cang.

Even though Ye Zhaoxian and Cang had joined hands once in the past to allow both of them to be reborn in the current era, it was understandable.

After all, there was a huge difference between being reincarnated and reborn.
