Night Without End

Chapter 1612: Chapter 644: Candid Conversation (Part 2)

Mu Shiniang and Zhou Tian come from the Demon Court; with two Highnesses moving together, most factions wouldn’t dare target them.

Fifth Brother comes from Doushuai Temple and is the future Taoist Venerable, his status extremely special.

Counting it all up, Qin Ming felt that he himself was the most dangerous one.

If they really entered the Ancient Land and the Six Great Saints moved in concert, then if cannon fodder was needed, he’d most likely be the first one offered up.

"Damn it... I’m actually part of a vulnerable group!" Qin Ming realized his situation was bad.

Of course, this expedition had long since been deliberately leaked; too many people were already paving the way. In theory, he could live to the final stage.

"To be safe, I can’t participate in person."

The legendary Yi Ming True Scripture was indeed good, making great figures of all ages covet it, but you needed the fate to take it.

Never mind the open and hidden struggles among the explorers; that Ancient Land itself was extremely sinister.

"No matter, my Little Worm has the potential of a Great Emperor." Qin Ming decided to play it by ear, acting according to circumstances.

If that Earth Realm couldn’t block his Power of resonance, he’d simply let Little Worm enter the field.

"Should we invite him out to test it right now?"

Qin Ming felt that even without consciousness, Little Worm’s Body instincts might still trigger the Ghost Talisman on the stone bricks.

After all, this Body had once been the Insect Emperor!

Emperor Insect, Insect Emperor—though they looked similar in words, their status and strength were completely different.

"This place isn’t secure; there may be old monsters spying."

In the end, Qin Ming rose and left the quiet room.

"Sixth Brother, how is it?" Niu Wuwei came over to meet him.

Qin Ming said, "Those aren’t characters from our era, and there’s no Spirit imprint left behind, so they can’t be deciphered."

"Indeed." Niu Wuwei nodded.

Ever since the two of them left the Doushuai Temple Domain, they had always been together and already had tacit understanding. If they went to explore the Ancient Land, they would definitely join forces.

Qian Cheng had already finished a private talk with Wen Lingxi; now he was standing with the father and daughter, chatting idly.

He waved and said, "Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother, come over here."

Niu Wuwei sent a voice transmission: "Second Brother, don’t tell me you want to be my Old Brother’s son-in-law?"

"Marrying into the family?" Qin Ming added.

The two of them were naturally familiar, and once again threw their arms around Old Brother Wen Chongguang’s shoulders.

Wen Lingxi could hear every word without missing a syllable; sword-light from Flying Swords almost flared in her gaze.

"Big Niece, when you look at the two of us, there’s light in your eyes—is that longing for the future?" Niu Wuwei said with a straight face.

Qian Cheng’s expression remained calm. "Don’t talk nonsense."

Clang! Clang!

Within Wen Lingxi’s beautiful eyes, two dust-sized Immortal Swords fell, about to swell to enormous size in an instant.

Qian Cheng raised his hand to stop them, saying, "How old are you now? You’re both the face of your respective Taoist lineages—how can you still bicker like this?"

Qin Ming spoke up, "Tell us about this expedition."

Qian Cheng nodded. "Alright, let’s talk."

He took the lead, leaving this place and heading toward a small reception hall, and Wen Lingxi was actually invited along.

Seeing this, Wen Chongguang followed as well.

Qian Cheng was very direct. "Old Six, you’ve guessed something about my identity, haven’t you? That’s right, it’s just as you imagined."

He indirectly acknowledged that he was the Magic King.

Last time Qin Ming stripped his identity bare—he was both Qian Cheng and the Magic King, standing there like a clay or wooden idol. Now there was nothing left worth hiding.

At this moment, he raised a mysterious Rune light screen that covered only him and Qin Ming, so they could speak in secret, impossible for outsiders to eavesdrop.

Qian Cheng’s expression was somewhat complicated. "You are... Qin Ming?"

He thought of many things. The two of them were true old-timers from the same hometown, having both lived in Chixia City and walked into the Thunder Fire Alchemy Hall together.

It was on that very day that Qian Cheng received the Thunder Fire Sky Light baptism and awakened his innate wisdom.

Qin Ming knew he couldn’t hide it from him.

After all, Zheng Guang’s deeds in Doushuai Temple had all been told to the sworn brothers by Zhou Tian.

Once it involved Li Qingyue, it was practically a face-up card.

If Qin Ming had been an ordinary person, it would be one thing, but he’d gotten far too famous in the Yujing Territory.

Qian Cheng said, "I’ve even started to suspect—have you perhaps dipped into some Forbidden Domain, and are you an old monster returned?"

Then he shook his head. "But I don’t remember any old guy like you, and judging from how you act, you don’t seem like someone from ancient times."

Qin Ming said, "I’m indeed not an ancient."

Qian Cheng nodded. "Men of this age are truly fearsome!"

Qin Ming said, "Brother Qian, we’re genuine old-timers from the same hometown, both Ye State people. We should look out for each other."

Qian Cheng smiled faintly. "With that whole Ye State backbone of yours, you’re not planning to use those methods on me, are you?"

Qin Ming immediately put on a stern face. "Your Ye State soul has gone demonically astray."

In truth, he was very wary of Qian Cheng. Although the other wore a youth’s body, he had an old monster’s mind—deep and unfathomable.

Qian Cheng seemed to know what he was thinking. "You don’t need to fear me. There’s a problem with my Resurgence—I’ve only absorbed part of the innate wisdom. Overall, I’m still a young man."

Naturally, both of them held things back, choosing what to say.

Qin Ming said, "Do you really trust Meng Zhiyu? I suspect her relationship with the Emperor Insect isn’t that simple, and she should also be implicated with that Strange Insect Alliance organization."

Qian Cheng agreed. "Mm, your insight is sharp. Meng Zhiyu can be an ally, but we must guard against her too."

Their secret talk couldn’t possibly be full mutual disclosure; even as hometown fellows, they were wary of each other.

As for the Six Great Saints organization, at present it still looked like a ramshackle troupe.

Qian Cheng flicked his finger, and the Rune light screen covering the two of them shattered.

Niu Wuwei opened his mouth, but didn’t ask in detail.

Qian Cheng’s expression was calm, his eyes deep, as he introduced, "Wen Lingxi is a Disciple of an old acquaintance of mine, and she’s brought the phoenix seal of their lineage."
