I’ve Been AFK for Ten Million Years
Chapter 398: Qi Zong’s Contempt
CHAPTER 398: CHAPTER 398: QI ZONG’S CONTEMPT
"Master, Qi Zong knows a manager at the Heavenly Bull Divine Temple. With his help, there would absolutely be no problem for you to establish the Human Emperor Temple. Furthermore, he can also help you choose a good location!"
Looking at Ren Changsheng, Qi Yun spoke again.
"Oh!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Ren Changsheng’s mouth.
The lower district, located on the outskirts of Heavenly Bull City, although large, is almost fully occupied even if Qi Yun belongs to the Qi family.
It wouldn’t be easy to find a prime location for Ren Changsheng.
"Let’s go!"
Ren Changsheng stood up.
"By the way, when in front of outsiders, you can simply call me Young Master Ren. Calling me ’master’ over and over, that’s not very good!"
Ren Changsheng looked at Qi Yun and said lightly.
"Thank you, Master!"
Hearing this, Qi Yun’s eyes gleamed with joy. Although she had no objections to the title ’Master’, it would certainly cause trouble if people from the Qi family found out.
A daughter of the prominent Qi family, how could she submit to a mere youth at the sixth level of Heavenly Dao? Moreover, the current Ren Changsheng, having no background in Heavenly Bull City, would definitely not be approved by the Qi family.
"Go down!"
Ren Changsheng stepped out of the room, and Qi Yun hurriedly followed, both descending from the second floor of the inn.
"Yun’er!"
Just as Qi Yun stepped down, the man at the door quickly greeted her, his eyes filled with undisguised affection as he looked at her.
"Qi Zong, can you manage the task I assigned you?"
Looking at Qi Zong, Qi Yun’s brow slightly furrowed. Although there wasn’t disgust in her eyes, Ren Changsheng could tell that Qi Yun did not have much fondness for Qi Zong.
If it weren’t for her own matters, Qi Yun would probably not even approach Qi Zong.
"Yun’er, don’t worry, just leave it to me. I know Manager Li from the Heavenly Bull Divine Temple for many years; he’s like a brother to me. As long as I’m there, it’ll surely be taken care of!"
Qi Zong said confidently.
"That’s good!"
Qi Yun nodded.
"Let me introduce you, this is Young Master Ren, he is the one who wants to establish the Human Emperor Temple!"
Qi Yun introduced Ren Changsheng to Qi Zong.
"Oh!"
Qi Zong’s arrogant eyes fell on Ren Changsheng. In his view, establishing a lower-tier power wasn’t impressive, especially since the Qi family was now a mid-tier power.
"Is this gentleman Ren Changsheng?"
A gleam flashed in Qi Zong’s eyes. Ren Changsheng’s cultivation was only at the mid-sixth level of Heavenly Dao, a level he didn’t care much about. However, the way Qi Yun looked at Ren Changsheng was somewhat wrong.
The way she looked at him was completely different.
This made Qi Zong feel slightly annoyed. If Qi Yun needed his help for something, he would naturally be very happy. But if there was something between Ren Changsheng and Qi Yun, wouldn’t he be helping his own rival!
"Your cultivation is only at the mid-sixth level of Heavenly Dao, it’s not easy to establish a power, but with my help, there won’t be any problems!"
Looking at Ren Changsheng, Qi Zong spoke with a proud expression.
Having said that, Qi Zong glanced at Qi Yun again, his demeanor seemingly telling Qi Yun that someone at the sixth level of Heavenly Dao meant nothing in his eyes, while his own abilities were significant.
Even if Ren Changsheng didn’t have the seventh level of Heavenly Dao cultivation, he could assist Ren Changsheng in establishing the Human Emperor Temple.
"Thank you very much then!"
Ren Changsheng responded with a faint smile. Qi Yun also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as Qi Zong’s help in establishing the Emperor’s Temple for Ren Changsheng was considered a completion of the mission assigned by her master.
"Follow me!"
Qi Zong’s brows furrowed slightly; he glanced at Qi Yun but noticed that she seemed not to be looking at him, her attention entirely focused on Ren Changsheng.
This made him even more displeased.
However, with Qi Yun present, it was not appropriate for him to express his anger. Besides, he had already agreed to help Ren Changsheng establish the Emperor’s Temple. If he were to break his promise, it would demean him in the eyes of Qi Yun.
"Although I can let you establish a power base, I can also..."
It seemed something came to mind, a sinister smile creeping into Qi Zong’s eyes. The Ren Changsheng before him dared to encroach on his territory; he certainly wouldn’t make this easy for Ren Changsheng.
A group of people quickly made their way towards the center of Heavenly Bull City. The journey took them half a day as flying was forbidden within the entire city; they could only walk slowly.
The location for establishing power almost reached the middle power tier; Ren Changsheng and his two companions had to traverse the entire lower-tier area to get to this temple.
"We’ve arrived!"
Finally, Qi Zong announced. Ren Changsheng looked ahead and saw a vast palace spanning hundreds of miles with numerous chaotic divine patterns densely covering it.
This place was indeed a branch of the Heavenly Bull Temple.
Within the entire Heavenly Bull City, there were many such branches, all of which managed the powers of Heavenly Bull City. The temple before them was responsible for managing the lower-tier powers.
"Oh my, isn’t this Qi Zong from the Ren family?"
Just at that moment, a sarcastic and weird voice was heard. Shortly thereafter, a group of people walked towards Ren Changsheng and his companions, led by a man.
This man exuded a sinister air, his eyes particularly lingering on Qi Yun, beside Ren Changsheng, a few times more, casting a chilling gaze that made Ren Changsheng frown immediately.
"Little Star, what kind of cultivator is this?"
Ren Changsheng asked Little Star.
"Master, this person practices the evil path. Among the three thousand great paths in the world, any one of them can lead to the pinnacle. The evil path is no different!"
Little Star’s voice responded.
"Evil path!"
A sharp light flashed in Ren Changsheng’s eyes. Since entering Heavenly Bull City, he had encountered more and more Saints, each practicing different methods of cultivation.
He even saw several literary Saints who entered their path through writings, very mystically; of course, these were genuine Saints, not merely self-proclaimed ones from a small world.
They ascended to sainthood through the path of literature.
They developed their internal worlds through the path of literature, and their worlds were places filled with the aromas of books, very peculiar and also strong in battle capability.
"Little Evil Dragon!"
At this moment, Qi Zong’s brows also wrinkled, and the look in Qi Yun’s eyes turned colder; it was apparent that the Qi family and this man called Evil Dragon had a bad relationship.
"Hehe... Miss Qi Yun is here too!"
Little Evil Dragon let out a strange laugh.
Yet, shortly, he seemed to notice something; his eyes landed on Ren Changsheng. The Ren Changsheng before him was merely a sixth-tier Heavenly Dao practitioner and still an unfamiliar face.
This made Little Evil Dragon take a few more glances.
"Let’s enter the temple!"
Qi Yun said sternly.
"Let’s go!"
Leading the way, Qi Zong glanced at Little Evil Dragon, showing no desire to engage with him. Moreover, Ren Changsheng saw a trace of wariness in Qi Zong’s eyes.
