Tian Xu glanced at Prince Tian Ming and said with bitterness, “Uncle, I may make it into the top seven, but… it might be meaningless now.”
Meaningless?
How could that be?
Tian Xu continued, “This time, just surviving is already a great fortune for me!”
What?
Beside him, Xu Donglai stepped forward and asked, “Prince Nineteen, may I ask about Qing Tian and Qing Feng… and Prince Seventeen…”
Tian Xu’s face turned grim as he replied, “They’re dead, all of them are dead!”
Dead?
Almost simultaneously, both Prince Tian Ming and Chief Xu Donglai swayed on their feet. Had it not been for the support of those around them, they would have collapsed to the ground.
Tian Zhiheng!
A talent whose brilliance was evident, and one of the future candidates for the throne, was dead.
How could he tell the emperor?
For Xu Donglai, the brothers Xu Qingtian and Xu Qingfeng were his very life. But now… they were dead!
This was an unbearable sorrow!
“How could this be…”
Xu Donglai was stunned and muttered, “Prince Seventeen and Qingtian… how could they be dead…”
Tian Xu said with a bitter smile, “This time, we were not the hunters. That Ye Wushuang… he was the hunter, and we all became the prey!”
Ye Wushuang!
Once again, it was Ye Wushuang!
Who on earth was this person?
Now, the Shengdan Sect, Tianji Mansion, Taiqing Palace, and Lingjian Mountain were all starting to feel worried.
The fifth master of Taiqing Palace, Jiang Taiyuan, spoke up and asked, “Tian Xu, did you witness the deaths of Tian Zhiheng and the others with your own eyes?”
Upon hearing this, Tian Xu’s brow furrowed.
“Master Jiang, what do you mean by that? Do you think I would jest about such a matter with my uncle?”
Jiang Taiyuan smiled and said, “In the Tiyan Dynasty, the struggles among the princes are fierce. Who can say for certain what happens?”
Tian Xu immediately took a step forward and coldly said from a distance, “Master Jiang, I hope you can still smile later!”
“What do you mean by that?” Jiang Taiyuan was taken aback.
Tian Xu sneered, “Tai Shengzi, Tai Lingzi, and Hua Cangyu are all dead. Your Taiqing Palace might not have a single one in the top seven this time.”
“Nonsense!”
Jiang Taiyuan was furious.
Tai Shengzi, Tai Lingzi, and Hua Cangyu were all outstanding prodigies of Taiqing Palace. How could they possibly be dead?
Tian Xu didn’t bother to say anything more.
Soon, the disciples of Taiqing Palace would bring back the news.
Sure enough, not long after, a disciple from Taiqing Palace returned with the news.
Upon hearing the news, Jiang Taiyuan fainted on the spot.
This was disastrous!
Now, the masters of Lingjian Mountain, Su Xuanye, the Tianji Mansion, Ling Han, and the Shengdan Sect, Sheng Xuan, all furrowed their brows.
Something was seriously wrong!
The most formidable prodigies from the Jujian Sect, Taiqing Palace, and the Li Clan had all been killed.
Even the Tiyan Dynasty had only one survivor, Tian Xu.
What about their own factions?
At that moment, the jade stele changed again.
“Tianji Mansion, Gu Qingyi, 700,000 spiritual value points.”
The name that had been first, Tian Xu, was replaced by a new one.
“Qingyi…”
Seeing Gu Qingyi’s name, Ling Han immediately let out a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, the disciples of Tianji Mansion hadn’t suffered any losses.
Soon, Gu Qingyi arrived.
“Qingyi!”
Ling Han chuckled and said, “Very good, much better than that Tian Xu!”
At least one of their prodigies would make it into the top seven.
This was great news.
Gu Qingyi’s face, however, was still grim, though there was a sense of having narrowly escaped death.
It was a real close call!
What a mess this Hundred Nations Martial Contest had been!
Initially, Gu Qingyi had chased Ye Wushuang and Li Wenbo together with Yan Xuan.
Fortunately, at that time, it was Yan Xuan who dealt with Ye Wushuang; otherwise, he would have been dead then and there.
Later, he had cooperated with Ling Zhongxiao and Lou Ge. Lou Ge had a moment of madness and insisted on going after Ye Wushuang.
The result… well, he was killed by Ye Wushuang.
After that, Ling Zhongyun and Sheng Ge, still not giving up, joined forces with everyone to kill Ye Wushuang, and Ling Zhongxiao went along as well.
Gu Qingyi didn’t go.
Thankfully, he didn’t go!
If he had, he wouldn’t have come back.
Now, Gu Qingyi didn’t care at all about the seven ultimate treasures.
He just wanted to survive!
Only now, seeing the high-ranking officials of the Tianji Mansion, did Gu Qingyi feel safe.
During the last half-month, Gu Qingyi wished that a spiritual beast would swallow him whole and keep him inside for half a month.
Living in constant fear of encountering Ye Wushuang was truly nerve-wracking, and he had become much thinner.
“Qingyi, what’s wrong with you?” Ling Han asked, noticing Gu Qingyi’s absent-mindedness.
