Peerless Battle Spirit
Chapter 13: The Mystic Spirit Sect

...In the Qin Clan, the entire Conference Hall was immersed in dead silence.

The deacons stared with their eyes open wide, as they never thought that Qin Tieba would try to usurp Qin Tian’s position as the Patriarch on this day.

The second and third elders behind Qin Tieba wore calm expressions, as if the news was not shocking for them.

“Trying to usurp me?” Qin Tian broke the silence with a calm smile, “Supreme Elder, are you seriously trying to usurp me because of this? I would like to see how you are going to achieve that!”

Following his words, a powerful stream of Qi was emitted from his body.

The Body Tempering Realm emphasized refining the flesh, while the Xiantian Realm allowed cultivators to absorb the Qi of the Heavens and Earth to be stored as their personal Qi.

The crowd was dumbfounded as they were struck by a great pressure, and it was as if breathing had become difficult at that instant.

There existed a significant difference between the Body Tempering Realm and the Xiantian Realm!

Qin Tian rose from his seat and scanned the crowd, before his eyes focused onto Qin Tianba’s figure, “I, Qin Tian, am the only Xiantian Realm presence in the Qin Clan. If you really want to usurp me, I would like to see how you are going to stand a chance against the Fang Clan!”

Many among the crowd were startled by the words.

Both the Qin Clan and the Fang Clan were the one of the Two Great Clans of Linshui City, thus they had always been fighting one another. Besides, the Patriarch of the Fang Clan was also a Xiantian Realm expert. Without Qin Tian’s presence, the Qin Clan would be outmatched by the Fang Clan.

Qin Tieba showed no sign of being intimidated. Instead, his face was filled with mockery, “Qin Tian, is that all you’ve got, to try and be a dictator in the Qin Clan by abusing your cultivation?”

The crowd was stunned. What did Qin Tieba mean by this? Could it be that he had ranked up to become a Xiantian Realm expert?

Qin Tieba rose from his seat without placing Qin Tian in his eyes, as he spoke in a calm tone, “Allow me to tell you some great news; a few days ago, my son Qin Changkong has been selected by the Mystic Spirit Sect to become their disciple. Meanwhile, the Mystic Spirit Sect will be coming to Linshui City to hold a disciple selection in five days’ time!”

At that instant, the Conference Hall fell silent. Even Qin Tian wore a surprised look on his face.

The Mystic Spirit Sect!

In the Luohe Kingdom, the Mystic Spirit Sect was known as one of the Top Four Sects, who possessed great authority among the factions in the entirety of the Luohe Kingdom. It was referred to as a sacred place for cultivation in the hearts of young cultivators. The reason being that if they were able to become a disciple of the Mystic Spirit Sect, their status would skyrocket without a doubt.

Currently, in the history of the Qin Clan, not a single disciple had been able to join the Mystic Spirit Sect.

One of the deacons panted heavily, “Supreme Elder, are you being serious? The Mystic Spirit Sect has always held their disciple selection once every three years. It has only been two years since the last selection!”

“The next selection will be held in advance.” Qin Tieba replied confidently.

Gasp!

The crowd finally gathered their thoughts and inhaled deeply. They all glanced toward Qin Changkong at the same time. If their previous gazes toward him were filled with respect and the intention to fawn upon him, their gazes toward him were now brimming with passion and admiration!

At that instant, Qin Tian’s status sunk to the bottom in their hearts.

So what if the Qin Clan no longer had a Xiantian Realm expert?

If Qin Changkong were to become a disciple of the Mystic Spirit Sect, not only would their Qin Clan remain as one of the Two Great Clans, they could even suppress the Fang Clan and become the real dominator of Linshui City, giving their clan an unimaginable future. The benefits that Qin Changkong would bring to their clan were obviously better than Qin Tian!

“Everyone,” Qin Changkong began to speak with a prideful face while glancing at Qin Tian with utter disdain, “Patriarch Qin Tian has abused his authority to give five hundred Body Tempering Pills to a piece of trash. In my opinion, he has no right to be the Patriarch of our clan.”

Qin Tian’s expression changed, while an unpleasant feeling rose in his heart.

Although he had already predicted that Qin Tieba would make use of the clan meeting to try and usurp him, he had not expected that Qin Changkong would have been recruited by the Mystic Spirit Sect.

In that case, Qin Tian’s cultivation of the Xiantian Realm, and his title as the strongest expert of the Qin Clan, no longer brought any advantage to the current situation.

Qin Tian took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm his thoughts, before he swiftly spoke, “Everyone, even though I’ve taken five hundred Body Tempering Pill for my son, I’ve given up my wages as compensation!

“Besides, not that I’m trying to boast about my capabilities, since I’ve become the Patriarch of Qin Clan I’ve given all my effort to bring the clan to greater heights. It’s been five years since I’ve taken up the role, and although I do not dare to say that I’ve achieved much, I must say that Qin Clan has grown stronger under my lead!

“In the recent Martial Awakening Ceremony, my son has turned from a genius into a waste, thus giving him a great impact. Apart from my role as the Patriarch of the Qin Clan, I’m also Qin Nan’s father. It’s his first time to ask for something from me, and as his father, I must fulfill it. Besides, I have already promised to give all my wages to the clan.

“That is all I have to say. I hope that everyone will continue to support me!”

Every single word was spoken sincerely in a dull tone.

Qin Tieba and Qin Changkong showed no hint of mercy after seeing this. Instead, the mocking expressions on their faces grew stronger.

The place fell into a dead silence, before the second and third elders behind Qin Tieba stood up at the same time and said, “I agree with Qin Changkong. It is unacceptable for Qin Tian to be our Patriarch any longer.”

With the second and third elders taking the lead, the deacons instantly blurted out their opinions. No one was willing to listen to Qin Tian’s words!

“Right right right, Qin Tian, you no longer have the right to be our Patriarch.”

“How ridiculous, how do you, Qin Tian, have anything to do with the growth of the Qin Clan? It’s all due to our hard work!”

“I agree with usurping Qin Tian. I’m utterly disgusted by your act of giving that many Body Tempering Pills to your trashy son. Is that what you should do? You should give them to Young Master Qin Changkong istead!”

“Usurp Qin Tian! A person like him should not be our Patriarch!”

The entire Conference Hall exploded as all the deacons were infuriated. Some even emitted murderous intents. If it weren’t for Qin Tian’s cultivation of the Xiantian Realm, they would have beaten the crap out of him by now.

Qin Tieba and Qin Changkong exchanged glances with one another, and were able to see the hint of joy in each other’s eyes.

Qin Tian’s figure shuddered violently while his face turned pale white as he observed the infuriated deacons and the rage and murderous intent on their faces. At that instant, it was as if a huge saber had penetrated his heart, resulting in a great pain.

Qin Tian had never thought that the people of the Qin Clan would bear hatred toward him!

“HAHA…” Qin Tian suddenly burst out laughing before his aura dropped rapidly as if he had just lost his soul, “I see, I see… If that’s the case, I’ll accept it…”

Before Qin Tian could finish his sentence, Qin Tieba was thoroughly filled with excitement. He had been lusting after the role of Patriarch for many years, but since he was no match against Qin Tian in terms of cultivation, he could only wait for his chance.

However, since Qin Nan had become a piece of trash while his son took over as the top genius, Qin Tieba had finally found a ray of hope.

Hence, Qin Tieba had set his eyes upon the clan meeting as his opportunity to strike. If he were able to usurp Qin Tian’s position as the Patriarch, he would then be able to replace his role!

Qin Changkong also became extremely excited.

Qin Changkong did not hold a grudge against Qin Tian, and clearly knew that Qin Tian had played an important role in assisting the Qin Clan in becoming one of the Two Great Clans of Linshui City. However, what excited him the most was that, without Qin Tian’s support, Qin Nan would become a real piece of trash!

Even though Qin Nan was already referred to as one, it was not enough in Qin Changkong’s eyes—he would not even allow Qin Nan to look up at him for the rest of his life!

However, at that instant, a sudden explosion took place.

The entrance to the Conference Hall was shattered into pieces. In the midst of the smoke from to the explosion a figure slowly appeared, his face filled with utter fury.

The figure was none other than Qin Nan!
