Chapter 2327 - 2330: Qin Tian Is Stunned

Qin Tian headed to Wang Tianqing's Blessed Land.

"You've arrived."

Wang Tianqing was amidst the Blessed Land. Upon seeing Qin Tian today, he spoke softly, his tone flat, unhurried.

Qin Tian looked at Wang Tianqing, whose eyes were slightly narrowed, meditating, without glancing at Qin Tian.

"Sit down. I'm currently healing, give me five minutes."

Wang Tianqing said.

Healing?

Qin Tian was taken aback, he froze, especially as he connected the dots, his mood suddenly grew heavy.

By Wang Tianqing's seat, a chair was already waiting for Qin Tian. Even the tea on the seat was already brewed—made from the fresh Maojian tea from Xuanyuan Mountain, its mist evident that it was freshly brewed.

Looks like he anticipated my visit, Qin Tian thought as he sat down.

From Wang Tianqing's previously calm demeanor and the tea in front of him, Qin Tian deduced that Wang Tianqing knew he would visit today.

He savored the tea while waiting for Wang Tianqing to heal.

A few minutes later, Wang Tianqing took a deep breath and consumed an elixir, only then did he slowly open his eyes.

Qin Tian met his gaze.

Today, Wang Tianqing wasn't looking well, his face slightly pale.

It had only been two hours since he last separated from Wang Tianqing, yet Wang Tianqing's expression was starkly different, even injured. Qin Tian had already guessed the reason without needing Wang Tianqing to explain.

He was shocked, unable to believe that Wang Tianqing would do such a thing.

"Master, the outside world is in chaos, are you aware?"

Gazing at Wang Tianqing, Qin Tian asked.

"I'm aware."

Wang Tianqing replied with a faint smile.

"You knew I would come, and you also know why I came today, right?"

Qin Tian said, "Was the Ninth Young Master's death related to you?"

Silence.

Wang Tianqing stared at Qin Tian, a few seconds of silence.

Then, he smiled calmly and said, "Yes."

Wang Tianqing's response was concise and unexpected for Qin Tian.

He hadn't anticipated Wang Tianqing would directly admit it, and seemingly, there was no explanation or intention to explain.

"Why? You were the Ninth Young Master's man, why lay such a sinister hand on him?" Qin Tian's tone carried the weight of inquiry.

He despised traitorous opportunists the most.

For instance, Jin Lin. Though Qin Tian had ruined his appearance, if Qin Tian met him again, he definitely wouldn't let him leave alive.

"You assumed I was the Ninth Young Master's man, but the truth is, I'm not."

Whoosh!

Wang Tianqing's words instantly stunned Qin Tian!

Wang Tianqing wasn't the Ninth Young Master's man?!

What a joke!

Qin Tian was so surprised he almost stood up from his seat.

He stared blankly at Wang Tianqing, only to see Wang Tianqing smile slightly at him, saying, "In this world, there's enmity and vengeance, deception and scheming, too much, too complex to explain... To speak of my relationship with the Ninth Young Master, it was mutual utilization and manipulation. He used me, I used him... But I used him to live a peaceful life, yet he always bore a grudge against me, unbeknownst to him."

Turns out, the Ninth Young Master held a grudge against Wang Tianqing, yet due to his many wrongdoings, he didn't remember.

While Wang Tianqing harbored hatred, becoming the Ninth Young Master's man, their eventual outcome was already predictable.

Qin Tian didn't know this, merely asked, "Then why did you let me become the Ninth Young Master's man? You've hidden well..."

"Sorry, Qin Tian. The Xuanyuan Immortal Sect is complicated, as is the Immortal Domain. There are things I couldn't tell you beforehand."

Wang Tianqing's words were practically identical to Xuanyuan Shenyue's words back then.

Qin Tian chuckled lightly, saying, "Looks like you belong to the Seventh Young Master."

"Yes."

Wang Tianqing nodded, "I knew you'd come find me today, I knew you'd inevitably realize that I used you to lure out the Ninth Young Master, then seize the opportunity to strike. So, I've been waiting for you for half an hour."

"You just need to know I have a grudge against the Ninth Young Master, I'm with the Seventh Young Master, the rest should be clear to you."

Wang Tianqing's words echoed in Qin Tian's ear, and Qin Tian nodded, "Indeed, I should have figured it out earlier. I came to the Immortal Domain with Master Shenyue, he mentioned wanting to take me into the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect."

"That day, you happened to appear at the newcomer selection meeting… How could there be so many coincidences, all of it was planned and conceptualized by you and him long ago, I just didn't know."

Qin Tian chuckled and shook his head, realizing that he had been kept in the dark over the past two years.

Both Wang Tianqing and Xuanyuan Shenyue, in front of him, seemed to be acting, Wang Tianqing never mentioned the Seventh Young Master, and Xuanyuan Shenyue even comforted Qin Tian saying it was alright, it was from Wang Tianqing whom he could accept.

Goodness, Oscar-worthy performances indeed!

From the start Xuanyuan Shenyue and Wang Tianqing had colluded.

After Qin Tian entered the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, they had designed every step, ultimately using Qin Tian to kill the Ninth Young Master!

Qin Tian's role in this was merely that of a pawn.

"Since you know everything now, I needn't conceal anything from you, Qin Tian. When the Seventh Young Master was highly favored by the Sect Leader, I was already inclined to become one of his people. But the Ninth Young Master attacked the Seventh Young Master, also implicated my niece and nephew, killing them together... heh, the Ninth Young Master simply didn't know."

"Back then, I always had dealings with the Seventh Young Master, but after he was severely injured and went to the Spiritual Domain, he urged me to bear in silence, awaiting his return. During this time, I became one of the Ninth Young Master's people, waiting for when you arrived... The Seventh Young Master's return, you should be aware of the purpose. Yes, we're determined to deal with the Ninth Young Master by any means."

Qin Tian listened to Wang Tianqing's explanation, saying, "Your revenge, what's it got to do with me? Why must you drag me into this?"

"Because the Seventh Young Master has an eye for talent, recognizing your potential in the Spiritual Domain. Ideally, within Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, among the disciples, trustworthy individuals are scarce, thus the Seventh Young Master suggested you take the forefront role, helping us with revenge, and also accelerating your cultivation progress."

"They even made arrangements for my benefit."

Qin Tian chuckled lightly, feeling complex emotions at the moment.

Being used, this feeling was displeasing to him.

However, seeking revenge on the Ninth Young Master, it seemed understandable.

Yet, the Ninth Young Master truly appeared formidable, even injuring Wang Tianqing.

"Did you alone kill the Ninth Young Master?" Qin Tian curiosity asked.

"Certainly not, the Ninth Young Master's strength surpasses mine, and he had a guard. Alone, I couldn't possibly kill him."

Wang Tianqing replied, "This was a meticulously designed trap set by me and the Seventh Young Master, the Ninth Young Master fell right into it, with no way to escape."
