When Qi Tian supported his back and earnestly told him how much he believed in him, Emperor Bahuang had an illusion. He remembered how, when he used to send his subordinates on life-threatening missions, he would often lower himself as Qi Tian was doing now, showing great warmth. How the tables have turned, it was now his time to be on the receiving end.

However, Emperor Bahuang was truly swayed by this approach. It wasn’t that he agreed with the way Qi Tian treated him, but rather the reward of a small space Qi Tian was offering was too tempting. He knew full well that Qi Tian wanted him to charge into battle and spare no effort in serving him, but for the sake of that small space, Emperor Bahuang decided to give it his all. As Qi Tian said, he was the strongest of the five Princes who had come, so why shouldn’t he be the one to achieve the most and be the most deserving of the small space?

“Rest assured, Master Qi, I will do my utmost this time. I won’t let anyone take that small space away from me, just you wait and see,” Emperor Bahuang asserted, his words deliberate. To the unaware, it might seem as if he was making a fierce promise to Qi Tian.

Qi Tian chuckled and replied, “Good, I’ll be waiting. There’s nothing else here worth our continued stay, let’s hurry back and make the most of the time to explore the Saint’s Tomb.”

Qi Tian and Emperor Bahuang returned together to the Saint’s Tomb. By then, it was already daylight and there wasn’t a single one of the hundred-plus Gold Core Realm experts idling around; everyone was extremely busy. At a time like this, slacking off was equivalent to being irresponsible with one’s own life. Not to mention slacking, the Princes wouldn’t forgive them, and just thinking about Manager Chen possibly coming by was enough to know how foolish it would be to be lazy now.

“Master Qi, if you have no orders for me, I’ll get back to work now. Call me if there’s anything, I shall take my leave.” Emperor Bahuang informed Qi Tian before he left to attend to his own tasks.

Qi Tian circled the Saint’s Tomb and saw that the preparations were almost complete, with only some finishing touches left. By nightfall, all the preparatory work should be finished.

Qi Tian didn’t rashly interrupt the ongoing work. Instead, he found Gao Jinmei and Xia Xiaoming, instructing them to continue protecting him while he focused on repairing the Wolf Teeth Knife. There was still a significant number of Half-step Nascent Soul level and above Wolf Teeth Knives that he hadn’t repaired. They were the most convenient trump cards he had, usable not just by himself but also by others, so he needed to fix as many as he could.

In the blink of an eye, night fell, and as Qi Tian had anticipated, with the relentless efforts of Emperor Jianwu and the other Princes leading everyone, all the preparations for exploring the Saint’s Tomb were ready. They could open the tomb’s gate at any time and enter the underground palace for the adventure.

Emperor Jianwu and the other Princes came to Qi Tian, hoping he would issue the order to allow them to open the gate of the Saint’s Tomb.

When Gao Jinmei learned of their intentions, she hurriedly relayed their message to Qi Tian, who was still repairing the Wolf Teeth Knife. Without stopping his work, he told Gao Jinmei to inform Emperor Jianwu to wait another night. They would officially open the Saint’s Tomb the next morning, and for the current night, Qi Tian instructed to double-check everything to ensure there were no oversights in the preparation, and absolutely no repeat of the mistake where someone got close without being detected.

Emperor Jianwu and his colleagues were anxious, but without Qi Tian’s consent, they didn’t have the guts or the confidence to open the Saint’s Tomb, so they followed Qi Tian’s instructions and continued with further preparations.

Qi Tian just focused on repairing the Wolf Teeth Knives as quickly as possible; due to the influence of the Luminous Sand, his cultivation had risen from the entry of Gold Core Realm to the Gold Core Realm Third Level. The increase in his cultivation not only significantly boosted his strength, but to his delight, he found that the speed at which he repaired the Wolf Teeth Knives had increased as well. If he previously could repair only one, he could now manage two, and even have some time left. The speed had more than doubled, and he could feel that the quality of the Wolf Teeth Knives he mended was slightly better than before, though the improvement was minor. The difference for Half-step Nascent Soul level spells was tremendous, something incredibly difficult to achieve for others, yet he had managed it with ease.

In what felt like a mere moment, it was night, and with the sky barely lit, Emperor Jianwu and the other Princes couldn’t contain their eagerness and gathered near Qi Tian, waiting for his command.

Qi Tian knew they were all anxious, but he remained calm. It wasn’t because he wasn’t in a hurry, but rather he understood that in exploring the Saint’s Tomb, hastiness was useless and could easily lead to mistakes.

It wasn’t until the sky was almost fully light that Qi Tian finally stopped the repair work. Although he hadn’t managed to fix all the Wolf Teeth Knives, his efforts throughout the night had repaired dozens. With careful usage, the supply should be just adequate for upcoming needs.
