Chapter 43: Opponent (Third Update of the First Day, Seeking Votes)

  Many people present thought that even if Qi Bei didn't die, he would at least be half-dead, but unexpectedly this kid fainted for a while and then got up again, lively and energetic, except his body was charred like a piece of black coal, seemingly without any other major injuries.

  At this time, Zhi Bei's father, Raymond Nuo De, walked over with the Grand Priest of that temple.

  The grand priestess stood before Zhi Bei, her hands placed on his head, and she chanted a string of obscure magical incantations. Suddenly, a soft green glow filled with vitality enveloped his body.

  A miracle happened, and Qi Bei's entire body, which was charred black, began to shed its skin in large patches. The skin that was revealed underneath was white and tender, even more so than a young girl's.

  Only, originally Qi Bei's whole body was charred black, although the clothes on his body were only a few pieces of cloth, but he didn't feel anything.

  Now his dark skin turned white, and this feeling was immediately different.

  It can be seen from the change in the eyes of the girls around that one by one is like a wolf, as if they want to swallow Ziqi Beilian's skin and bones.

  "Brother Qi Bei, your skin is now even better than mine!" exclaimed Feng Ruoyu beside him, stretching out her small hand to touch his chest.

  How rude...

  Zi Bei felt a bit awkward, he wasn't an exhibitionist, so he immediately pulled down the clothes of a nearby tribesman's son to cover up the exposed "spring light", without noticing the shock that flashed in the eyes of the high priest.

  The main ceremony of the engagement has already ended, and Qi Bei and Ming Yue Gong Zhu have formally tied the knot. However, due to Tian Yan's sudden outburst, everyone lost their mood, and the engagement ceremony was hastily concluded.

  ################################

  Deep night, solitary mountain.

  Feng Tian stood at the top of the mountain, the terrifying wound on his neck and face had scabbed over, but the bloodstains all over his body hadn't been washed off, he just stood there like a wooden stake in the midst of the fierce mountain wind.

  The shame that churned in his heart was burning his soul, the scene of that shame kept flashing before his eyes, making his gaze sometimes crazy and sometimes confused, and his ferocious face was twisted to the extreme.

  "Xiao Tian, you've been satisfactory to me since birth, but there's one thing - you've had it too easy all the way here, never experiencing any setbacks or hardships. For a strong person, this is a fatal flaw."

  "Grandpa, isn't it good?"

  "Life is always full of twists and turns, with ups and downs. A person who has always been on the rise will fall one day, and the pain will be even more severe. Success can make people arrogant, but setbacks can strengthen their hearts. Those who have never experienced setbacks and humiliation cannot be called heroes for a lifetime, only temporary ones. Xiao Tian, remember Grandpa's words: if someone humiliates you, don't let the humiliation control you, instead, control it and return it to your opponent a hundredfold."

  "Oh."

  For no reason at all, Huo Tian suddenly remembered a conversation he had with his grandfather two years ago.

  At that time, Feng Tian was showing his head and corners in Tongtian Mountain, and with Grandpa's elder identity in Tongtian Mountain, he looked down on everything.

  That day, Grandpa suddenly found him and said a few words, but Tianye let it go in one ear and out the other, not taking it to heart. And on the second day, his grandfather closed his eyes forever.

  This sudden recollection of the conversation made me feel as if I had been enlightened, as if I had gained some insight.

  "Grandpa, I understand." Tian's distorted face slowly calmed down, but the wound on his face still looked gruesome.

  "Zi Bei, Nuo De. Today's humiliation will be repaid a hundredfold tomorrow. The anger in my heart is hard to quell, only because I once regarded you as an ant, but now, I regard you as an opponent." Tian Yan let out a loud roar, his words cold and measured, and in this moment, he seemed to have undergone a transformation.

  At this time, Qi Bei's upper body was lying on the bed, and Huan Ying's soft and boneless hands were pressing against his body. He didn't know that his one sword hadn't destroyed Tian Yan, but had instead forged a rebirth of his will in the fire.

  However, Qi Bei is heartless and wouldn't think that much. To him, the moment they clashed in the sky was when they became sworn enemies. Since they are enemies, he doesn't care about his identity; since he dared to make a move, he won't show any consideration for his status.

  "Oh, ah, so refreshing, a bit more on the left, again, I can take it." Qi Bei cried out comfortably.

  Her face flushed with anger, she couldn't help but punch him and scolded: "Young master, can't you just shut up?"

  "Phantom, you're so heartless! My body is still injured." Qi Bei said with a hint of resentment.

  "Hurt? Young master, go take a look in the mirror, your whole body, not even a single mole." The shadowy figure said with annoyance.

  Qī Běi turned around, his big hand grasped the phantom's small hand and pressed it against his own heart, saying: "My heart is hurt, of course you can't see it from the outside."

  "Master..." The phantom's face turned red with shyness.

  "Hmm?" Zhi Bei's other large hand quietly reached out towards Huan Ying's raised buttocks.

  "The young master's skin is really tender now, I touched it and felt like I was touching a woman." The Phantom said with his head down, but his beautiful eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.

  Qī Běi's salty pig hands were numb, both hands were paralyzed, and he lay on the bed in a big character shape, his heart was really hurt...

  "I want to sunbathe, tomorrow I'll be having a sunbath, damn it, it's too depressing." Qi Bei shouted in her heart.

  Just then, Jin Gang pushed open the door and said loudly: "Young Master Wu, someone has come from the head of the family to deliver a message. You are to go to the ancestral hall immediately."

  Now? Ziqi sat up, a sudden doubt arising in his heart. It was already deep into the night, what urgent matter did the old man have that he had to find him now.

  Ziqi put on his good clothes and went to the ancestral temple.

  Outside the gate of the ancestral hall, guards are strictly on duty.

  At the sight of this lineup, Qi Bei's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could it be that the younger generation had arrived to challenge the older generation? The Tongtian Mountain would have someone come to support that young master! What a joke, the great Wang Pinlei, a magician of the royal family, was injured by this mid-level warrior, and still had the face to find a backer!

  As he entered the ancestral hall, Qi Bei found that there was only the family head, Ke Di. Nuo De, his father Lei Meng. Nuo De and his elder brother Huai An. Nuo De, all three of them looked somewhat serious.

  "Qī běi, come and pay respects to our ancestors." Kē dì. Nuò dé said in a hoarse voice.

  Qī Běi responded with a sound, came to the ancestral tablet and knelt down, respectfully performing the ritual worship.

  After worshiping the ancestors, Kedi Nuo handed a small black box to Qi Bei and said: "There is your fiefdom document inside. You will set off immediately after this and head to Xiling City."

  "What?" Zhang Qi Bei opened his big mouth, being called out in the middle of the night.

  Kodie Nord didn't seem to notice Qi Bei, and said, "Xiao Jiu, Thirteen, come out."

  Two figures shrouded in black robes appeared eerily before Corti Norden, bowing respectfully and saying, "At your service, Master."

  "From now on, I am no longer your master, Qi Bei. It's Nord, you follow him." said Kord Nord.
