Even if we kill Ancestor Hai Ling, aren't there still three great ancestors and ten clan elders
With their strength and influence in the Sea Spirit Clan, if they interfere, Nie Qiuyu will have to give up his position within a few days, and his life may even be in danger.
Of course, you can also kill them all. Then, with Nie Qiuyu's strength as a divine spirit, who would dare to act rashly
However, if this were really done, it would bring a catastrophic disaster to the Sea Spirits.
Because of the loss of Great Ancestor and others, the overall strength of the Sea Spirit Clan is bound to plummet. It is obviously impossible for them to survive in the Sea of Stars where sea beasts are rampant.
But now, Nie Qiuyu has obtained the inheritance and recognition from the ancestor of the Sea Spirit Clan. He is the hope to continue the glory of the Sea Spirit Clan. Even if they were given a hundred courages, they would not dare to stir up trouble.
This way, he can leave with peace of mind.
After hearing Wutan's words, Huangfu Mingzhu felt much more at ease, and a charming smile appeared on her face.
The succession ceremony took two hours and was successfully completed. During the period, Princess Xue Lan and others who were invited came forward to speak, and Wutan was no exception.
After the ceremony ended and the crowd dispersed, Wu Tian and his companions returned to the residence that Nie Huo had arranged for them.
However, there were three more people traveling with them, namely Zhou Shu, Lu Yuan, and Qu Sheng. Their target was, of course, Her Highness Xue Lan.
Princess Xue Lan is a woman of natural beauty, stunningly beautiful, and the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven. She has always been the object of competition among the younger generation of the Heavenly Realm. The most crucial thing is that their parents, such as the fathers of Zhou Shu and the other two, are secretly encouraging them to pursue Princess Xue Lan.
Because once she marries Her Highness Xue Lan, it would be like owning half of the country.
However, none of these people could catch the eye of Princess Xue Lan, and no one has succeeded in winning her heart so far.
That evening, everyone gathered together to drink and chat. Wutan had no interest at first, but he could not resist Huangfu Mingzhu's pleading, so he had no choice but to join in.
After three rounds of drinking, Zhou Shu came up to him and said with a chuckle, "Brother Wu Tian, can we discuss something?"
Wu Tian glanced at him and said bluntly: "If you want the Heavenly Soul Grass, forget it."
"Well!"
Zhou Shu was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Brother, when you reject someone, can't you be more tactful?"
Ni Yeye sneered and said, "Heavenly Soul Grass is rare in the world. Would he be stupid enough to sell it to you?"
Zhou Shu angrily asked, "Did I talk to you?"
Ni Yeye said proudly: "Grandpa is talking to you because he thinks highly of you."
As a result, they started arguing again after a disagreement.
"It really proves the old saying that enemies often meet." Lu Yuan shook his head in disdain, frowned slightly, turned to look at Wu Tian, and said, "You used to be a member of the alliance, why do you choose to join the Heavenly Court now?"
Princess Xue Lan frowned and said unhappily, "Lu Yuan, do you think it's appropriate for you to ask this question in front of me?"
"Haha, it's my fault for not considering it enough." Lu Yuan smiled, thought for a while, and then said, "Wutian, I think this is how we should exchange our divine marks. After we return to the Heaven Realm, I will find you for a good reunion."
"Anytime."
Wu Tian smiled faintly.
Afterwards, they each took out the Earth Symbol Order and exchanged their divine mind imprints. Zhou Shu also came forward with a flattering look on his face. However, Qu Sheng had been silent from the beginning and seemed a little out of place.
As for Her Highness Xue Lan, she seemed somewhat dissatisfied with this matter, but she did not speak to stop it.
“Crunch!”
Suddenly, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and an old man in black strode in. It was the elder of the second clan, Nie Huo. He came in front of the group and bowed, saying, "Greetings to Her Highness Xue Lan, and to all the young masters and young ladies."
They all nodded politely.
Nie Huo smiled, looked at Wu Tian and said, "Master Wu Tian, the clan leader invites you, please do me the honor of speaking to me."
"Invite me?" Wu Tian was stunned.
"Can I go with you?" Huangfu Mingzhu asked after hesitating.
Nie Huo wanted to politely refuse, but when he saw the two holding hands tightly, he smiled and said, "Of course."
"What about us?"
Ni Yeye and Zhou Shu followed suit.
"this… "
Nie Huo was in a dilemma.
"Haha, just teasing you."
Seeing this, both of them couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Ni Yeye waved to Wu Tian and Huangfu Mingzhu and said, "Go quickly and come back soon. We won't leave until we are drunk tonight."
Wutan and the other man stood up and followed Nie Huo to Xinghai Peak.
The destroyed Xinghai Peak has been rebuilt, and the layout on the top of the mountain is still the same as before, with lush ancient trees, blooming flowers, and more than a dozen elegant attics neatly located in it.
Walking into one of the attics, Nie Meixue, the three great ancestors, ancestor Hai Ling, the clan leader and his wife, and the ten clan elders were all there. Upon seeing Wutan coming, they all bowed and saluted.
Nie Qiuyu had changed into a pure white dress, which made her look less noble and more pure. She stood in front of Hai Ling Patriarch and the others, stretched out her snow-white jade arms, and said with a smile, "Sir, please sit down."
Where his fingers were pointing, there was a jade coffee table. Wutan and Huangfu Mingzhu were sitting on the same chair, Nie Qiuyu was sitting opposite them, and Nie Meixue was making tea on the side.
Wu Tian looked at Da Zu and the others, and said with a faint smile: "Miss Nie, please speak directly if you have anything to say!"
Nie Qiuyu turned around and glanced at the Hailing Patriarch, and said, "Young Master, to be honest, Qiuyu asked Uncle Nie Huo to invite you here. First, I want to thank you very much, and second, I want to ask you for a divine-level heavenly spirit grass."
Huangfu Mingzhu asked in confusion: "Don't the Sea Spirits have even one Heavenly Spirit Grass?"
“There used to be.”
Nie Qiuyu had a bitter smile on his face.
Huangfu Mingzhu suddenly realized and couldn't help but look at Wutan with a strange look.
Wutan touched his nose, and a rare look of embarrassment appeared on his old face.
Nie Qiuyu said: "Heavenly Spirit Grass is very rare in the world. In the past two thousand years, our Sea Spirit Clan has not found a single one. So no matter what, please be generous and donate. Qiuyu will be grateful for the rest of her life."
After a moment of hesitation, Wu Tian nodded and said, "No problem, I will give you 100 Heavenly Spirit Grasses and 100 Earthly Soul Grasses as compensation for your Sea Spirit Clan."
Upon hearing this, Ancestor Hai Ling and others were overjoyed.
Nie Qiuyu also stood up and thanked him.
"One hundred plants at once, you are really generous."
Xiao Wuhao complained in the Star Realm.
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Don't be so stingy. At worst, after returning to the Heavenly Realm, I will go to Tianbao City to buy some Heavenly Spirit Grass and Earthly Soul Grass."
Xiao Wuhao said: "You said this, don't forget it when the time comes."
Not long after he finished speaking, Xiao Wuhao handed out a space bracelet.
Wu Tian grabbed the space bracelet, placed it on the coffee table next to Nie Qiuyu, and said with a smile: "Please count it."
Nie Qiuyu smiled and said, "There's no need to count them, old ancestor, why don't you accept them quickly."
Ancestor Hai Ling nodded, hurried to the coffee table, grabbed the space bracelet, and sank his mind into it. Shock suddenly appeared on his old face, and he exclaimed: "They are all magical medicines!"
"real?"
Dazu was shocked and found it hard to believe.
"Take it and see for yourself!"
Ancestor Hai Ling handed the space bracelet to the Great Ancestor. The moment his divine consciousness sank into it, the Great Ancestor was petrified on the spot.
One hundred divine-grade heavenly spirit grasses and one hundred divine-grade earthly soul grasses. Although their value is not as high as that of the heavenly soul grass, it is much more valuable than the resources that Wutan looted from the treasure house!
Although there were many spiritual essences and hundreds of magical medicines in the treasure house at that time, those spiritual essences could not be compared with the heavenly spirit grass and earth soul grass.
After coming to his senses, Dazu hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, little friend Wutian."
Wu Tian smiled faintly and said, "No need to thank me, I just hope that you can fully assist Nie Qiuyu in the future."
Upon hearing this, Ancestor Hai Ling and the others looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
Nie Qiuyu said: "Master, I have a question in my mind. Can you please answer it for me?"
"You want to ask me why I want to help you, right?" Wu Tian said, and then looked at Hai Ling Patriarch and others, and said: "You are also thinking about this question in your heart, right?"
Everyone nodded.
Huangfu Mingzhu's body and mind tensed up, and Wu Tian could clearly sense that her jade hands were trembling. Wu Tian naturally knew what she was worried about, so he patted her hands gently and comforted her, "Don't worry!"
Then he looked at Nie Qiuyu and said with a smile: "Actually, I helped you out of sympathy. When I learned that you were killed by your brother and sister who were born to the same mother, I felt sorry for you, so I felt compassion for you and decided to kidnap Nie Yuzhan and Nie Yufeng."
"I see."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Nie Qiuyu asked: "Then how did you know that my soul was injured by them? Did Sister Meixue tell you?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with Mei Xue. On the contrary, she deliberately wanted to hide it from me. However, Mei Xue seems to know that I have mastered a magical power to search other people's memories."
Nie Meixue nodded and said, "I do know that you used it on the way. It seems that you used this method to read Nie Yuzhan's memory and learned the truth of the matter."
Wu Tian nodded.
Everyone looked at each other, with bitter smiles on their faces. It turned out that this was the truth.
Hai Ling Patriarch asked doubtfully, "Friend Wu Tian, was it you who destroyed my Qi Sea just now?"
The little guy said disdainfully: "How could he have such ability? It was Grandpa Frog who did it."
"Sky-devouring beast!"
Ancestor Hai Ling's pupils shrank, and he felt a strong fear in his heart as he looked at the smug little guy standing on Wutan's shoulder.
Wu Tian stood up and said with a faint smile: "If there is nothing else, Wu will take his leave first."
Nie Qiuyu stood up and bowed, saying, "Qiuyu has something else to say. Qiuyu hopes that the grudge between you and our Sea Spirit Clan can be written off from now on. I also hope that you can stay in Xinghai City for a while longer. After Qiuyu finishes the affairs of the clan, I will personally take you to the sea area to enjoy the scenery of Xinghai City."
Wu Tian smiled faintly and said, "It would be best if our grievances could be written off. As for how long you will stay in Xinghai City, that is not something Wu can decide. Miss Qiuyu, see you later."
At the same time, Huangfu Mingzhu nodded politely to everyone.
Then the two turned and left.
"Let me take you there!"
Nie Meixue's eyes flashed and she quickly chased after him.
