"Kid, is it you who killed my great-grandson? Hmph, I can sense it now, it's this aura. You really have some guts to kill my great-grandson and still dare to appear before me."
The qilin ancestor closed his eyes to sense the surroundings, and when he suddenly opened them, a terrifying killing intent surged forth. He took a step forward, the overwhelming Qilin Aura continuously flowing from his body.
"If you had knelt down and begged for mercy as soon as you entered, perhaps I would have allowed you to die a quick death. But now, I won't just kill you; I'll make you suffer the pains of this world. I will burn your soul with Dark Flame little by little, making you endure eternal agony. Even if the powerful ones behind you come, they won't be able to save you!"
The qilin ancestor moved closer to Qin Chen and stopped.
"With you, this old fool, you think you can make me beg for mercy? Have you forgotten how I killed your divine thought avatar? If you had stayed in the Dark Continent, you might have lived a little longer. Now, you dare to come here to seek your own death. Tsk tsk, truly living a long life has turned you into a dog."
Qin Chen shook his head and sighed.
Gagging sounds erupted from the throat of one of the strong figures from Sikong Sacred Ground, their eyes rolling back in shock, nearly choking to death.
"It's over, it's over. This kid is too arrogant, daring to speak to the qilin ancestor like that. Given the qilin ancestor's temperament, doesn't he want to skin this person alive?"
A group of experts from Sikong Sacred Ground was left dumbfounded, regardless of their attitudes towards Qin Chen.
They had never seen someone so arrogant.
"You seek death, kid."
The qilin ancestor's face darkened, erupting with rage. With a loud bang, waves of Qilin Aura erupted, shaking the entire void.
"Two of you, let's talk this over."
At that moment, Sikong Zhen hurriedly stepped in, and with a loud roar, a mid-stage supreme power descended, halting the qilin ancestor's actions.
The qilin ancestor turned sharply: "Sikong Zhen, are you going to stop me? For this kid, are you disregarding the dignity of Sikong Sacred Ground?"
Sikong Zhen's face darkened: "Qilin ancestor, this is the secret ground of Sikong Sacred Ground; please restrain yourself."
He then turned to Qin Chen: "Young friend, the grudge between you and the qilin ancestor is purely a misunderstanding. Originally, I had no reason to intervene in your matters, but one is an underling of the former ancestor, and the other is a friend of Sikong Sacred Ground. Why don't I act as a peacemaker here? Let’s discuss things openly."
"Qilin ancestor, this young friend has extraordinary talent. Your avatar was destroyed by him, and you both are essentially strangers who fought without knowing each other. Such a person, in my Black Jade Continent, is likely a supreme prodigy. It’s better to resolve enmity than to deepen it; how about I mediate, and we turn swords into plowshares?"
Sikong Zhen said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the qilin ancestor's pupils suddenly contracted.
He understood Sikong Zhen's intention.
Qin Chen was young yet possessed such strength, able to eliminate even his divine thought avatar, a rarity even in the Black Jade Continent. Such a figure obviously had strong forces backing him.
However, the Qilin Crown Prince was his most beloved great-grandson, even the heir to his qilin divine kingdom he had nurtured with all his efforts. How could he just let it go?
Most importantly, Qin Chen's attitude was too arrogant; he could not afford to back down.
The qilin ancestor fixed his gaze on Qin Chen, sweeping his consciousness across the world, probing in all directions, a force locking onto Qin Chen - he was scanning him.
It must be known that the qilin ancestor was a supreme warrior, deeply immersed in the supreme realm for many years. As a supreme ancestor, his insight was extraordinarily sharp. If Qin Chen had anything special to hide from him, it would be extremely difficult.
