Chapter 248 - Arrogant
"Insolent, how shameless!" The ancestors shouted as if they were watching a cat stealing fish.
They were just about to talk about how to divide the fish corpse, but someone had already tried to retrieve it.
"Quickly stop that...."
But how do they do it? The fish is also thrown quite far from them, they will need time to reach it.
A gigantic hand then appeared from within that spatial vortex. It wasn't as big as the fish's body, but it could still attract the fish's body.
The hand held the fish's fin before pulling it into the spatial vortex. It immediately disappeared while the spatial vortex was shrinking at an extremely fast pace.
By the time people got there, it had completely disappeared.
They certainly wouldn't give up so easily, several paragons used their power, trying to mess up the space in the place. Unfortunately no matter what they did, even when they managed to tear through space, they found nothing but nothingness.
"Shit...." They cursed.
They looked at the people and the juniors, they were sure the three people were hiding among them. But no matter how they used their perception and search techniques, they still couldn't find any sign of their existence.
The most furious were of course the members of the Wind and Rain sect and the Divine Lion clan. The two factions were planning to take the fish corpse for themselves, who would have thought that someone would actually steal it under their eyes. Their anger only grows bigger because they have no way of dealing with it.
Qin Tian who was the main culprit only smiled casually as Feng Qingxue and Yuli looked at him with strange eyes.
Several Paragons then approached them. They look friendly with their sincere smiles.
Seeing them approach Qin Tian's group, the others turned their gazes towards them. Even Yu Lie and Gandor also looked at them.
Once their strength was revealed, there was no way anyone would dare to ignore them.
They cupped their fists at Qin Tian, Yuli, Feng Qingxue.
They also tried to see the faces of the two women, but were unable to break through the spiritual barrier they had set up in front of their faces.
In the end, they could only stare at Qin Tian.
"This young friend, can this old man ask your name?" asked the old man standing in the middle.
Qin Tian didn't plan on hiding his identity, so he answered without beating around the bush.
"Qin Tian," he said casually.
"Qin Tian..."
The name stunned people.
"So it's you." The old man who asked that reacted very quickly.
"No wonder you are so strong, I heard that you defeated all the younger generations in Dark Heaven. With your talent, there is great hope of becoming the emperor."
"Great hope? No, in this era, only I have the chance to become emperor!" Qin Tian replied in a relaxed tone.
"...."
Time seemed to freeze because of his words. The old man standing in front of him opened his mouth wide.
All the ancestors wondered if they had just heard something.
Some people may have boasted using those words, but of course they only said it in certain places. But now there were dozens of Paragons and Ancient Saints. In fact, no one was sure if anyone had ever said such words in front of so many experts.
Even Yuli who rarely changed her expression couldn't calm down because of his words.
"Let's go," Qin Tian said to her and Feng Qingxue.
Without waiting for them, he immediately stepped away. He flew towards Xia Xue and the others.
Feng Qingxue and Yuli had no other choice but to follow him.
Only after they left did people come to their senses.
Even though Qin Tian had already left, they still couldn't calm down.
"Does he think he's Titania? Even Titania never talks like that."
"It seems that the genius of the current era is becoming more and more arrogant, not putting others in the eye."
"Yeah, self-confidence is a good thing, but overconfidence isn't good either. He'll be hit hard when he loses. There are too many geniuses who have been crushed by a mere small defeat."
Unfortunately the person who said that didn't know that Qin Tian had already passed that phase in his past life. He had tasted several defeats, and he had even died once, how could he not be able to tell the difference between confidence and rationality.
Being arrogant wasn't because he was arrogant or didn't have the ability to control himself, but it was because he wanted to look like that in front of people.
He would be low-profile if he was weak, once he was strong enough to survive, he would show his wings and fangs.
When people were talking about him, Xue Ying suddenly came up to him so the people who were talking about him shut their mouths.
They wondered if Xue Ying wanted to scold him for being too arrogant, but soon they realized that their thoughts were wrong.
Xue Ying did not scold him, instead, he was friendly to him the moment he arrived in front of him.
"Brother Qin, you are truly strong, there is no doubt that you will be the greatest victor in this world," he said.
What he said left people stunned once again. The Giant Bamboo Sect disciples almost coughed at his words.
Wouldn't he be their sect's next emperor, why would he suddenly praise others so highly. It was as if he was his follower.
No one was happy if their heavenly emperor candidate became someone else's vassal. That is an insult.
If it wasn't for Qin Tian's overpowering strength, they would have already stepped forward to beat him up.
Qin Tian then chatted with Xue Ying, waiting for the Wind and Rain sect and Divine Lion clan to continue their journey.
Even though no one was waiting for him, people continued to stare at him and Xue Ying.
Yu Hong also looked at them, Qin Tian could sense suspicion from his gaze. He probably already suspected that they were also players.
The people from the Wind and Rain sect and the Divine Lion clan began to gather again.
They seem to want to focus on their work and ignore some of the things that just happened.
After they gathered, the paragons came straight to them.
Obviously they wanted to ask their goal.
The tree elder of the Giant Bamboo sect looked at Yu Lie.
He then asked him. "Young master Yu, what are your plans next?"
He stared at the sea below with a hint of fear. The paragon fish that came out of the sea had almost killed him earlier, so it was natural for him to be scared.
Who knows if there are other monsters down there.
"Are you guys going to enter through this area?" He added.
Compared to those paragons, asking a younger generation was definitely a lot easier.
The former could ignore him, but if Yu Lie also ignored him, people might think of him as someone who had no respect for seniors.
Gandor might ignore other people's opinions, but Yu Lie was definitely the type of person who wanted to maintain his image in front of the crowd, so he politely replied.
"Yeahhh, someone is waiting for us, this is the only fastest route."
"We can't keep that person waiting too long, so we have no other choice but to take a pretty dangerous route."
"Sigh, I just hope there's no greater danger than that fish."
