Being the number one person unquestionably among the Qin Clan for many years now, in fact, Qin Taichong's strength was astonishing. Although he was slightly less strong than Xin Wuji, he was at least an elite warrior of the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage. Plus he possessed majestic combat power that allowed him to always attract surges of overwhelming vital energy. Once he entered combat mode, he would explode through an astonishing method.
Therefore, even for someone as proud as Xin Wuji, he had to view Qin Taichong as the greatest potential threat among all those in the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates!
