52: The Holy Gathering of the Prodigies begins!
Chapter 52: The Heavens Pride Holy Assembly Begins!
Upon hearing this, Hua Mengying immediately sent a telepathic message: "Little Princess, it seems you can also hear Saint's inner thoughts. I can hear Saint's inner thoughts just like you."
Hua Mengying, after some thought, decided to be direct with Qin Linglong.
Their telepathic conversation was to prevent outsiders from hearing, especially Fang Chen.
Fang Chen was chatting with Qin Tianming and paid no attention to the two of them.
"You mean, that was his inner thought just now?"
Qin Linglong's eyes widened, as if she was just realizing it.
Seizing this opportunity, Hua Mengying led Qin Linglong aside.
"That's right, that was Saint's inner thought, and only a few of us know about it."
At this point, Hua Mengying fell into contemplation, wondering whether to reveal everything to Qin Linglong.
However, considering Qin Linglong's relationship with Qin Tianming, revealing it would surely bring trouble to Fang Chen.
"But why can I hear his inner thoughts?"
Qin Linglong asked curiously.
Only then did she realize that when Fang Chen spoke ill of her earlier, it was his true inner thoughts.
"Hmph, this Fang Chen is really hateful, to actually think of her as such a person in his heart!"
He called her a love-struck fool, a brat, and even said she was tricking her Imperial Brother. This guy was truly disgusting.
"I don't know that. It might be due to some special reason."
"And our Saint also knows the future; I've already verified this."
"If Princess doesn't believe it, you can follow our Saint for a while in the future, and then you'll understand."
"Furthermore, Saint was not wrong. If Saint hadn't interfered, you would have met someone named Xiao Yunting in the future, gotten entangled with him, and that would have even caused trouble for your Imperial Brother."
Hua Mengying's thoughts raced, planning to plant a seed in Qin Linglong's heart.
It was also a reminder to Qin Linglong not to get involved with Xiao Yunting in the future, and at the same time, not to make an enemy of Fang Chen.
She also knew that Fang Chen deeply disliked Xiao Yunting, but for some reasons, he couldn't interfere or even act.
But she could. She wanted to make sure Xiao Yunting's future gains dwindled, leading to a complete collapse.
Who told Xiao Yunting to try and kill Saint in the future?
Since he dared to target her man, how could Hua Mengying let him off!
"Then how do you prove what you're saying is true?"
Although Qin Linglong was foolish, she wasn't brainless.
It was impossible for her to believe Hua Mengying's words based on just a few sentences.
"I understand your concerns. If I were you, I'd have the same concerns."
"If you want to help your Imperial Brother in the future, you might as well temporarily believe my words and stay by Saint's side for a while. Since you can hear his inner thoughts, I believe you can discern the truth of the matter."
"This has no downside for you, and Saint has no reason to harm you, nor do I."
"We have no animosity, and given the relationship between the Great Qin Dynasty and the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, Saint and I have no reason to harm you."
"Furthermore, Saint does not know about these matters, and I also hope Princess will keep it a secret."
Hua Mengying looked at Qin Linglong and said seriously.
Hearing this, Qin Linglong fell into thought, then nodded: "Alright, I'll temporarily believe you."
Seeing this, Hua Mengying finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Once she knew that Qin Linglong could also hear Fang Chen's inner thoughts, she guessed the trigger condition for Fang Chen's inner thoughts.
Then she had a plan in mind, preparing to join forces with the other heroines to start dealing with Xiao Yunting.
Of course, it wasn't a thoughtless alliance; at least Lin Luowei still needed to observe, and she wouldn't try to win her over for now.
Soon, all the Prodigies were seated.
At this moment, the vast pavilion was filled with people; any one of them standing up was a Prodigy renowned in their region, with impeccable background and talent.
"Since everyone has arrived, when do we start fighting?"
"Are we just going to sit here, discuss the Dao, drink tea, and chat?"
Eagle Tianxiao was extremely displeased; he had long wanted to fight. He wasn't here to discuss the Dao, drink tea, or chat, but to challenge Fang Chen and redeem himself.
"I agree. If we're going to fight, let's fight quickly and then go home."
Xue Jinglun said.
Although he and Eagle Tianxiao were at odds, their goal was consistent on this point.
"Indeed, when do we start fighting?"
Tiger Clan Saint Huqiu Bai also stood up and said.
He had arrived here much earlier, but unlike others, he was a bit more low-key, so no one knew he had already arrived.
"Heh heh, are the Human Race Prodigies afraid to fight, only wanting to invite us to discuss the Dao, drink tea, and chat?"
"If so, that's too boring. We might as well go home early!"
A woman dressed in a red dress with red hair stood up and said.
This was the Vermilion Bird Holy Maiden, with an extremely curvaceous figure, fair skin, and eyes that seemed to hold flames, captivating one's soul.
Just by sitting there, the surroundings became intensely hot.
Among the Prodigies present, in terms of beauty, perhaps only Hua Mengying could compare to her.
The Vermilion Bird Holy Maiden was the Saintess of the Ancient Royal Clan's Vermilion Bird Clan, and also a rare fairy.
However, due to her fiery personality, even though she had many admirers, none dared to approach her.
It was also for this reason that the Vermilion Bird Holy Maiden had no suitors by her side.
"Compared to you, I'm more impatient and eager to fight. I've wanted to beat you beasts for a long time!"
The Nine Yang Saint, when he spoke, absolutely drew hatred!
Boom!
A powerful pressure spread out directly.
"Don't look at me with murderous eyes!"
"If you want to fight, come on! Don't think we Human Race Prodigies are afraid of you!"
The Nine Yang Saint remained expressionless, looking at these Yao Race Prodigies, his face full of provocation.
These Human Race Prodigies had dark lines on their foreheads; this Nine Yang Saint was truly, as rumored, a troublemaker.
With him around, how could there be peace!
"Since none of you have the intention of chatting, drinking tea, or discussing the Dao, then let's begin."
"After the Heavens Pride Holy Assembly begins, you may go and find your opponents yourselves."
Qin Tianming stood up and said.
Originally, this Heavens Pride Holy Assembly was meant for fighting, not for drinking tea, chatting, or discussing the Dao.
Since these people couldn't hold back, then let the fighting begin.
This was also Qin Tianming's thought.
The purpose of holding this Heavens Pride Holy Assembly was to gather these Prodigies here, then understand their strength, and prepare to sweep them all in the future.
He also wanted to emulate the Great Qin Ancestral Dragon Emperor, who could sweep away the Prodigies of his era and be unrivaled among his peers!
Soon, dozens of Prodigies stood up directly, their gazes uniformly fixed on Fang Chen, who was seated.
Clearly, their target for challenge was Fang Chen.
Fang Chen smiled when he saw their gazes.
"So many of you Prodigies challenging just me is also quite boring."
"How about this, since we're challenging, let's add some stakes!"
"The Human Race and the Yao Race each send five people to battle. The side that wins three or more rounds is victorious."
"The losing side each takes out items worth one hundred million Spirit Stones for the winning side. What do you think?"
Fang Chen looked at these people and said with a smile.
