So when Wu Yi slightly raised his head and looked directly at Shen Qian, asking the question "Can you bear it?", the momentum that Shen Qian had occupied in the world seemed to dissipate considerably.
Shen Qian's gaze swept past him and then settled on another slender figure on the stone pillar.
"The third name, isn't it you, Qin Xiaoke?"
The tone seemed to carry a questioning quality, yet it also conveyed an air of unquestionable certainty.
After a brief moment of silence...
Wow!
Even though many people had to rejoin the ranks of those resisting the three-colored giants, they still cried out in alarm.
Faced with Wu Yi's questioning that was more threatening than threatening, no one expected that Shen Qian's response would carry such a strong sense of contempt.
Yes, it was contempt.
Before sinking, a third name was given!
This shows that he not only doesn't intend to let the matter rest, but also wants to get rid of the third party as well.
And this third person is also Qin Xiaoke, who is ranked on the Nine Heavens Ranking!
See? You think you're so great, Wu Yi? I'm not only going to kill you, but I'm going to kill someone else too.
Although Chen Qian's words were calm and his attitude seemed unbiased, the intense, penetrating contempt he exuded was palpable even without much scrutiny.
Wu Yi could certainly sense it, so at this moment... his face turned ashen.
The beautiful young woman, who looked to be only sixteen years old and exuded an air of nobility, seemed somewhat taken aback when her name was called out before sinking.
She quickly frowned, looked down at Shen Qian, and said coldly, "It's me."
Without any attempt to deny it, Qin Xiaoke readily admitted it.
She was the third person involved in the military deployment in Jiangzhong.
Surprised?
It doesn't seem too surprising.
After all, back at the Luoshenbo Manor, Qin Xiaoke had expressed strong dissatisfaction with Shen Qian for taking away the opportunity that should have belonged to her, and even took action on the spot, but was later stopped by Luoshenbo.
After recovering from their shock, many people noticed that Qin Xiaoke and Wu Yi, whose faces were grim, were both subtly locking their auras onto Shen Qian, and their gazes towards Shen Qian became strange again.
Everyone says Consort Ning is crazy, but Shen Qian... isn't he crazy too?
Wu Yi alone is already no less than him, and now he actually wants to provoke Qin Xiaoke again!
Who is Qin Xiaoke?
From a certain perspective, Qin Xiaoke is even more untouchable than Wu Yi.
Although most of the original nine kings are no longer alive, it does not mean that they left no legacy.
Except for the Prince of Jiangling, who indeed had no descendants, the other eight princes all had descendants to some extent.
Among them, the most flourishing and prosperous were the royal families left behind by King Qin Guang.
Qin Xiaoke is a direct descendant of King Qin Guang, one of the nine kings.
She is affectionately known as the "Ninth Princess" by many.
This identity alone makes her inherently superior to others.
Not to mention that her own talent is also outstanding, making her stand out even among the generally gifted descendants of the Ninth Prince.
Legend has it that Lin Sanmo, who suppressed an entire generation, possessed a sword technique that was the foundation upon which he was inducted into the Martial Arts Hall of Fame. This sword technique was one that no one in the world had ever seen.
Because everyone who saw them is dead.
But everyone who knows the inside story knows that Qin Xiaoke is the only one who survived that sword technique.
Whether it was because Lin Sanmo was genuinely wary, or out of respect for the original Ninth King, or because Qin Xiaoke survived based on her own abilities, it was enough to demonstrate Qin Xiaoke's extraordinary nature.
Is it strong before sinking?
certainly.
The blood-soaked ground and the countless withered stones in the passageway were enough to illustrate how terrifying he was.
But when faced with Wu Yi and Qin Xiaoke, many people instinctively shook their heads at this moment.
It is said that Ning Zhaoyi has many trump cards and can compete with the people on the Nine Heavens Ranking, but that does not mean that she can actually step into that level.
Especially the powerful figures from the mountains and seas present understood even more what it meant when their combat power exceeded the 20,000 mark.
Under the combined aura of the two, Shen Qian slowly raised his head, a smile appearing on his lips, his eyes gradually brightening.
It was as if he had been looking forward to this moment for a long time.
"bring it on."
As he felt the immense pressure he hadn't felt in a long time, he finally managed a grin.
"Sinking forward..."
"Senior, no need."
Qu Bai finally found a chance to interject, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Shen Qian shook his head to stop him.
The two exchanged a glance, and after a moment of silence, Qu Bai seemed to understand something from those eyes, and finally nodded.
At this moment, many people suddenly realized that Qu Bai was still here. Perhaps Shen Qian thought that with Qu Bai backing him up, he wouldn't be in a difficult situation if he was really defeated, which is why he dared to speak so arrogantly.
But the other members of the Nine Heavens Ranking would naturally not share this view.
The clash between mountains and seas is extremely dangerous. If a perilous situation were to arise before the sinking, it would be uncertain whether Qu Bai would have a chance to rescue him.
Moreover, aura doesn't lie.
If he had only sought fame and fortune, he could not have amassed such power.
only……
“Shen Qian, I don’t care what entanglements you have with Wu Yi and Qin Xiaoke, but I hope you can put your grudges aside for now.”
A slightly hoarse voice rang out, abruptly severing the connection between the three.
Shen Qian turned his head indifferently, his gaze growing colder, as if he would strike immediately if the person who spoke failed to provide a coherent explanation.
