Chapter 1021
1021 Ye Qiu? I’ve Never Heard Of Him
“Hmm?”
As expected, Xiao Jinse’s words instantly shifted everyone’s attention to Ye Qiu. Many geniuses and foreign creatures present also looked over.
“Who is he?”
...“He’s quite arrogant. He actually dares to be more handsome than me.”
“I don’t know him. Is he new? Have you heard of it?”
“I’ve never heard of him. Is he the son of a big clan or a canary from an immortal holy land?”
The crowd instantly discussed animatedly. They were incomparably curious about which immortal this person Xiao Jinse admired was.
On the other side, He Yi’s attention was also attracted. One had to know that among these people, the only one who could catch his eye was Xiao Jinse. But now, he suddenly pointed at Ye Qiu. Could it be that the weak young man in the crowd was stronger than Xiao Jinse?
He Yi’s pupils constricted. He smelled a trace of danger. “What a strong aura!”
There seemed to be a huge storm hidden under the seemingly calm water. At a glance, one could not see the terrifying strength of the person in front of them at all. Only by passing through the calm water could one see the surging waves hidden under the water.
Dangerous!
This was He Yi’s first intuition. He had not felt these feelings for many years! Even when facing the geniuses of the same generation on his side, he had never felt such intense pressure.
“Who are you?” This time, he put away his arrogant expression and became incomparably serious. His eyes were like torches as he tried to see through Ye Qiu’s background. However, a faint mysterious aura surrounded Ye Qiu, completely isolating him from all the power of the outside world. His divine sense could not pry. He only knew that there was a bottomless abyss under the calm lake.
“Me? I’m not anyone. I’m just an ordinary cultivator, a member of the mortal world.” Seeing that everyone was looking over, Ye Qiu had no need to hide. He did not expect Xiao Jinse to be so cunning and pull him out.
However, it did not matter. In any case, he was not here to tour the Ancient Battlefield. Since he had been exposed, he might as well stop pretending. He slowly walked out. His white clothes fluttered, and he was surrounded by an immortal aura. He was like an immortal and had an extraordinary temperament.
Ye Qiu’s expression remained calm. He didn’t look uneasy because of this pressure. He had seen such big scenes many times and did not feel any pressure at all. Ye Qiu looked at Xiao Jinse and said, “Senior Brother Xiao, you’re really something! I’ll remember it.”
Hearing this, Xiao Jinse pretended not to hear and silently turned around, secretly laughing in his heart. “Hehe, I’ve finally found an opportunity. I built this stage for you. How you sing will depend on you.”
He thought to himself that it wasn’t just Xiao Jinse’s bad taste that pulled Ye Qiu out, but also to help Ye Qiu appear on this dazzling stage in a dazzling manner. As for attracting the attention of the foreign creatures, these were not within Xiao Jinse’s consideration.
This was because all the geniuses here were the focus of the other party. No true genius would be afraid of this so-called attention. Moreover, he was confident that these little bastards couldn’t do anything to Ye Qiu.
Where did the confidence come from?
Of course! Didn’t you see how badly I was tortured back then? The six of us were suppressed and beaten up.
“Ye Qiu!”
“What? He’s Ye Qiu?”
A cry suddenly came from the noisy crowd, instantly causing a commotion. Everyone looked at the lone figure in the arena in disbelief.
“I heard that Ye Qiu has already arrived at the ancient battlefield, but I haven’t seen the real person yet. I didn’t expect him to have been hiding in our team.”
“Heavens! Isn’t this too young? Is this the Heaven Mending Pavilion’s chosen one with supreme potential, the Heaven Mending Deity, Ye Qiu?”
“I heard that he has another nickname, Sword Immortal! From the looks of it, his attainments in the Sword Dao have long surpassed Xiao Jinse.”
“Nonsense, didn’t you hear what Xiao Jinse said just now? Clearly, Ye Qiu’s strength has long surpassed his. Otherwise, how could he push Ye Qiu out?”
There was another heated discussion at the scene. Some were happy, while others were naturally worried. For example, the descendant of the Kui Bull happened to be in the team. At this moment, his expression was also ugly. “Damn it! It’s him again. Why do I always meet him?”
He hadn’t forgotten the conflict with Ye Qiu in Imperial Pass. He also felt a lingering fear in his heart. How could he be a match for someone that even Xiao Jinse felt inferior to? No matter how proud and arrogant he was, he had to admit this cruel reality. He was even more afraid and worried.
On the other side, He Yi’s gaze remained on Ye Qiu. The moment he heard his name, the corner of his eye twitched. “Ye Qiu?”
This name seemed to have been heard not long ago. It came from the hunting list arranged by the people above.
He Yi did not expect to meet the number one prey as soon as he crossed the river and arrived at the ancient battlefield on the other side. While he was shocked, he was also overjoyed. It seemed like this first-class credit would belong to him this time.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth subconsciously curled up. He said in an extremely disdainful tone, “Ye Qiu? I don’t know him. Is there no one in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands? In this day and age, any chicken or dog can come out to show off? Haha, how ironic.”
“What did you say!” As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was instantly enraged. “Damn dark maggots, you actually dare to underestimate us like this.”
A golden lion let out a dissatisfied roar. Its claws were already scratching the ground, ready to attack at any time. They, who had a berserk temperament, naturally could not bear to hear such humiliation, especially when facing the humiliation of the land they grew up in.
“Did I say anything wrong?” Facing their anger, He Yi sneered and said, “I heard that the descendants of the Immortal Ancient have pure bloodlines. They are incomparably noble existences in the generation after the great ferocious beasts of the Immortal Ancient. But now, the former glory is no longer there. Instead, the human race has reached the front. Isn’t this a form of sorrow?”
“Damn it! Damn it!”
“Damn dark maggots, you’re just stinky bugs in the dark mud. What right do you have to judge us?”
“Be it the human race or the beast race, we are all survivors of the ancient Immortal Realm. Our bloodline has never stopped flowing, unlike you, who are dirty and smelly.”
He Yi’s words instantly caused a thousand waves. He wanted to stir up internal conflict in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, but which one of them was a fool? Which one of them wasn’t an extremely smart existence to be able to cultivate to this realm?
Ye Qiu looked coldly at the other party. He already had the intention to kill. He could clearly feel the other party’s cold killing intent from the simple conversation just now. Clearly, he wanted to provoke a conflict and push Ye Qiu into the limelight of public opinion to completely isolate him.
At that time, Ye Qiu would be alone and helpless. This way, he could operate in peace. Unfortunately, he had miscalculated. He thought that Ye Qiu needed the help of others, but he didn’t expect Ye Qiu to never think so, let alone rely on others.
