Chapter 15: The Smuggler
The burly man from the Cloudy sect walked out from the crowd who were clamoring to stand beside Nie Tian. Her brows furrowed slightly, she looked at Yuan Qiuying and her husband and said, “Adults should not interfere in children's fights, right?”
“Who are you?” Yuan Qiuying asked, getting angrier. “How dare you lecture me?”
Yun Zhiguo watched the burly man closely before his expression flickered, and he subconsciously wore Yuan Qiuying's clothes. “Li Fan?”
Li Fan giving a hard harrumph. “Indeed, it's me, Li Fan.”
The anxious Nie Qian seemed to have heard his name. The moment he found out the burly man in front of him was Li Fan from the Cloudy sect, his eyes immediately glittered with joy.
“Bapak. Li, please give justice!” she begged.
Li Fan nodded and casually said, “Please and bring the child home. I'd like to see if anyone dares to stop you!”
As Yuan Qiuying had always dominated in Black Cloud City, upon hearing that this was Li Fan, she immediately calmed down.
He did not have the courage to argue with someone like him. Instead, he glared at Nie Qian and Nie Tian with cold and annoyed eyes.
“Tian Small, let's go.” Nie Qian grabbed Nie Tian and quickly dragged him away from the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, without giving him a chance to speak.
As he was being pulled, Nie Tian kept looking back to look at Yuan Qiuying, Yun Zhiguo, and Li Fan.
“Aibi, who is Li Fan?” She asked. “Why is that evil woman and everyone from the Yun clan afraid of her?”
“Li Fan is a disciple of the master of the Cloudy sect,” Nie Qian explained calmly, “and also a Greater Heaven stage Qi warrior. Even if the head of the Yun clan, Yun Meng, was here, he would also not dare to mess with her.”
“Bigger Heaven Stage!” Nie Tian exclaimed in his heart.
Based on his knowledge, Yun Meng from the Yun clan had just entered the Great Heaven stage.
After reaching that stage, he was already one of the most influential people in Black Cloud City, which was why the Yun clan currently overshadowed the Nie clan in Black Cloud City.
As a Great Heaven stage Qi warrior and a disciple of the master of the Profound sect, Li Fan had a great advantage over Yun Meng in both status and strength.
Yun Zhiguo obviously did not dare to let Yuan Qiuying take such a rash action in the face of such status and strength, so he could only give up.
“This time, it is really our luck because Mr Li happened to be here. Otherwise, Yuan Qiuying would definitely not let this go so easily. I know him too well.” Nie Qian secretly rejoiced. “You brat, always get in trouble. If Yuan Qiuying wants to grumble about me, just ignore him and let him. Over the years, he has said every possible thing he can say to me, but I'm still here, aren't I?
“This is not like words that can cause actual damage. Hold for a while and then finish.
“You should focus your energy on cultivation. Only if you can break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining at the age of fifteen, and become a true disciple of the Cloudy sect, will you be able to break through, You will have the opportunity to seek justice for all the insults I have received.
“Aibi, rest assured,” replied Nie Tian firmly. “I won't let you down!”
Smiling, Nie Qian said, “Aunt believe you. However, the way you spoke back to pe**cur Yuan Qiuying was actually quite pleasant to hear. ”
“Ha ha ha!” Nie Tian also laughed out loud.
Just as Nie Qian and Nie Tian left, the little girl who had been standing beside Li Fan caught up with them and looked at Nie Qian up close, her intelligent eyes glittering brightly. “Hi what's your name?”
Having just defeated Yun Song, Nie Tian was in a good mood, so he replied casually with a smile on his face. “My name is Nie Tian.”
The little girl with bright eyes and white teeth immediately offered her own name. “I Jiang Lingzhu. How did you beat that kid?”
Nie Qian's expression flickered. “Family name ‘Jiang’ and nickname ‘Lingzhu’...” thought. His eyes glittered a strange light as he glanced at the little girl again.
“You mean that little Yun Song?” Chuckling, Nie Tian shook his head and said, “Nothing special. He's too weak. That's it.”
“He's too weak?” Jiang Lingzhu also laughed. “Are you not weak? His cultivation base is higher than yours three full levels! ”
“Who said a person with a higher cultivation base would definitely win the battle?” At first, Nie Tian looked surprised, but then raised his chin arrogantly. “Since I was a child, my opponents have always had a higher cultivation level, but I ended up dropping them all to the ground.”
“Wow, it's so awesome!” Jiang Lingzhu became even more interested. “So, you will definitely enter the Cloudsoaring sect, right?”
“Of course!” replied Nie Tian, full of confidence.
Jiang Lingzhu smiled. “Hahaha, hopefully you can be invited to a Cloudy sect like Nie Xian.”
“You're sure I'll do it.” Nie Tian was not simple in the least.
“You are quite the character of Nie Tian. I'll remember you.” Jiang Lingzhu waved her hand and jumped back towards Li Fan. As he did so, he turned to look back at Nie Tian and said, “My name is Jiang Lingzhu. Remember that. We'll meet again someday.”
“OK,” says Nie Tian blank.
“Auntie, will we go?” said Nie Tian.
“Oh, correct. Let's go.” Nie Qian's wandering mind was suddenly pulled back into reality. He did not say much to Nie Tian before taking his hand and leaving.
In the Nie clan, there were lanterns and colorful ribbons everywhere, as well as people chatting happily.
When Nie Tian and Nie Qian returned from the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, they found everyone in the clan smiling widely.
On his way, Nie Tian heard various words of admiration about Nie Han from the many members of the Nie clan.
“The oldest young master returned from the Cloudy sect. He had managed to reach the middle stage of the Little Heaven stage after only a few years of cultivating there. With the oldest young master in a stable position in the Cloudy sect, our clan will definitely prosper.
“I've heard that Li Fan, a disciple of the Cloudsoaring sect master, is back with our oldest young master. The young master actually gained a lot of faces because of that! ”
“It means our oldest young master has done well in the sect of the Cloudy.”
“Of course!”
“…”
When they finally found a moment of privacy, Nie Qian said, “Today, the entire clan will focus on Nie Han and Nie Xian, so it has nothing to do with us. I hope one day every member of the Nie clan will support you as well. ”
“That day will come,” said Nie Tian, full of aspirations.
“You're back. I have something to discuss with your grandfather.” That said, Nie Qian went alone towards Nie Donghai's residence.
Since Nie Donghai had given up his position as clan head, he had already moved out of the main house of the Nie clan, and was now living in an unimpressive stone house.
When he arrived, Nie Qian saw Nie Donghai standing by the window, facing towards the main house, deep in thought.
Many elders from the Nie clan gathered in the mansion, and excited laughter sounded from their direction.
It was not difficult for Nie Qian to imagine the scene of the crowd of clan members flattering Nie Beichuan, Nie Han, and Nie Xian in the main house at this moment.
The excitement and laughter in the mansion had nothing to do with Nie Donghai and Nie Qian. Ever since Nie Donghai moved out of the mansion, the other clan members rarely visited him.
“Dad, Nie Tian and I met Yuan Qiuying at the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion just now,” said Nie Qian softly.
Nie Donghai immediately turned around and asked with a grim face, “What? You have to endure the vile woman's verbal humiliation again? ”
“No.” Nie Qian shook her head. “Little Tian spoke back for me, and he also taught Yuan Qiuying's son a lesson.”
Nie Donghai was surprised, “That boy is named Yun Song? His cultivation talent was even better than Nie Hong, who I heard had reached the seventh level of Qi. How was Nie Tian able to teach him a lesson?”
Nie Qian told Nie Donghai the whole story, not withstanding a single detail.
Then she said anxiously, “The woman is never good. She did not dare to lose control in front of Li Fan, but I was worried that after Li Fan left, she would not let this go so easily and would take revenge. Times have changed. You are no longer the head of the Nie clan. If he makes trouble, I'm afraid.”.
“You are just watching Nie Tian,” he replied calmly. “Don't take him out of the Nie clan for now. As long as he was on the property of the Nie clan, the Yun clan would not dare to move.”
“Sorry,” Nie Qian apologizes in a low voice. “I failed to hold Little Tian.”
“Some things cannot be avoided. You should not blame yourself. ” Nie Donghai sigh.
Meanwhile….
Nie Tian had thrown all the commotion out of his head. As he returned to his room, he began to practice cultivation, a sense of urgency surfaced in his heart.
He could still recall the strange power that had emerged from his body during his last battle with Nie Hong, resulting in him suffering from a high fever.
This time, he defeated Yun Song with the help of the same unknown force. So with that in mind, he quietly observed the events in his body while cultivating.
After an unknown period of time, he gradually felt a burning sensation on the left side of his waist.
Fearing it was a sign of high fever again, he immediately focused his attention on the left side of his waist.
“Yes?!”
He suddenly saw the source of the heat not from his body, but rather from the piece of animal bone he had obtained from the raffle convention.
