Ancient Godly Monarch - Chapter 757

Chapter 757: Are You Willing To Take Me As Your Master?

 

In the Qin Clan, after Qin Qing was brought away, the Clan Lord Qin Mu was injured and was controlled by his clan members.

Qin Mu naturally understood that these people had long suppressed their resentment and finally acted together today with the help of outsiders to deal with him.

As for everything that happened, Qin Wentian who was in the Heavenly Talisman Realm had no idea of this. Other than contemplating the truth in the Heavenly Talisman Treasured Tome, he spent his time inside the palace refining the Sky Demon Oracle Bone as well, tempering his body. He also cultivated his Fiendgod Body Refinement Art, causing his fleshy body’s defense to boost tremendously, resembling a true fiendgod. When the refinement energy from the cultivation art was circulating, resplendent astral light surrounded him making him seem as though he was clad in a brilliant fiendgod armor.

Only after a long period of time did Qin Wentian finally exit the palace. That expert outside was still waiting there, and upon seeing Qin Wentian coming out, he couldn’t help but to glare at him, “Little boy, you are finally willing to exit.”

Qin Wentian’s gaze flickered, staring at this person. After which, he politely replied, “Qin Wentian greets senior apprentice brother.”

“Mhm.” That person nodded, and directly appeared beside Qin Wentian. With a clap that landed on Qin Wentian’s shoulder, a terrifyingly powerful energy suddenly permeated his body, causing popping sounds to echo from Qin Wentian’s bones as the current of energy washed through him.

“Mhm, not bad.” That expert faintly commented. After which, he stepped into the Heavenly Talisman Palace and the pressure boring down on Qin Wentian instantly dissipated, giving him a feeling of relaxation as though all the kinks in his bone structure were cleared.

“Awesome,” Qin Wentian mumbled. As expected of the Heavenly Talisman Realm. Seems like he, this junior apprentice brother of everyone, was the weakest among them. There were countless people here stronger than him, the experts were simply too many. Any one of them would be on the same level as Bai Wuya, and they hailed from all locations in the immortal realms.

The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor only governed the thirteen prefectures of Eastern Sage. The immortal realms were too vast, and there were naturally too many, too many geniuses.

“Do you still want to gain an understanding of other places?” Bai Wuya spoke to Qin Wentian. “Naturally, given that your strength is still weak, it would be of no help to you even if you enter them now. An example would be missions in the mission hall, you won’t be able to complete any of them.”

“How difficult are those missions?” Qin Wentian curiously asked.

“There are all kinds of difficulty. One of the more difficult ones I’ve seen before is to establish an immortal empire, becoming a Great Emperor of a territory.” Bai Wuya spoke.

Qin Wentian’s heart pounded, he looked at Bai Wuya and asked, “Senior Bai, were there any senior brothers or sisters who accomplished that mission?”

“There are.” Bai Wuya nodded. Qin Wentian’s body involuntarily trembled. There were actually people who succeeded in that.

There’s a senior of the Heavenly Talisman Realm that was an immortal emperor of a certain immortal empire?

How terrifying? The power that’s the Heavenly Talisman Realm is simply so strong that it struck fear in the hearts of those who knew of it. What’s more, this power was hidden in absolute secrecy, what would happen if this was known to the general public?

“I will first leave this realm then, I’ve spent too much time here.” Qin Wentian smiled.

“Mhm, sure. Let me send you out from the place I brought you in. Just use the chant and there would form a spatial tunnel connection. You will be able to return to the place you were at earlier.” Bai Wuya explained as he brought Qin Wentian back to the place they came from.

Over there, spatial fluctuations shimmered. Bai Wuya chanted as astral light flashed. The spatial tunnel opened and the scenery of the outside world appeared, it was just like seeing it through a looking glass.

“There’s no one outside, you can leave. Remember that in the future if you want to enter again, you must do so in absolute secrecy. If you are hiding from your enemies, do not even attempt to enter as your actions would lure them in. That would break the rules of the Heavenly Talisman Realm and the custodian immortal generals would punish you accordingly by granting you death. They would only give you a chance if your actions were discovered by others without your knowledge, unintentionally.” Bai Wuya cautiously reminded. Qin wentian nodded in understanding. The strict rules made sense, if not the Heavenly Talisman Realm would soon be revealed to others long ago.

“Ok, I will remember that. Thank you senior Bai.” Qin Wentian clasped his hands towards Bai Wuya.

“Since I was the one that recommend you, I naturally hope that you would have outstanding accomplishments. It would be the best if you can become someone of authority here and have the opportunity to personally meet with master.” Bai Wuya straightforwardly spoke. Gratitude flickered in Qin Wentian’s heart, he didn’t say much and only nodded before he headed towards the spatial tunnel.

Stepping out of the tunnel, Qin Wentian directly exited the Heavenly Talisman Realm and appeared in the airspace above the Worryfree City. The atmosphere up here was covered with clouds, Qin Wentian chose a certain direction and sped away.

The dimensional door closed as though it had never existed, everything was extremely mysterious.

He had been away for so long, he wondered how that little fellow Qin Feng was now.

Upon thinking of this pair of siblings, Qin Feng and Qin Qing, a smile lit up Qin Wentian’s face. These kindhearted siblings were very interesting and gave him a sense of kinship. Other than Bai Wuya and Swordsaint Li Mubai, Qin Feng and Qin Qing were the only ones that are the closest to him in here.

Qin Wentian utilized a speed-type treasure, boosting his speed to incredible degrees. Not too long later, he arrived in the airspace above the Qin Clan.

Stowing away the speed-type treasure, Qin Wentian descended, heading towards the courtyard Qin Feng and Qin Qing stayed in.

However, when he arrived, a frown painted his face. He discovered that both the siblings weren’t in there.

“What happened?” Qin Wentian mused silently. Right now, he only saw a few silhouettes walking over, they are all juniors of the younger generations. They are now all staring at Qin Wentian with enmity radiating in their eyes.

“You must be Qin Wentian right?” One female among them stated.

“Where is Qin Feng and Qin Qing?” Qin Wentian didn’t reply and directly questioned them instead.

“This place will be occupied by us in the future. As for where they are, you are just an outsider and have no rights to ask. Just leave, our Qin Clan does not welcome you.” That girl inclined her head slightly, resembling a spoiled princess that seemed as though she was very unhappy to see Qin Wentian. The words spoken by her was far from polite.

Qin Wentian just arrived and she instantly told him to get lost, wanting him never to come again in the future.

“What happened?” Qin Wentian’s brows furrowed. Qin Mu who was the grandfather of Qin Qing and Qing Feng was the Clan Lord of the Qin Clan. If something major had not happened, how could the residence of Qin Feng and Qin Qing be occupied by others?

“Didn’t I already say that our Qin Clan does not welcome you? Do you really want us to say the word ‘scram’ before you will get lost?” A young man around eighteen years of age impulsively stated in a rude manner to Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian didn’t look at the person who spoke. His perception extended outwards, enveloping the entire Qin Clan. An instant later, every corner of the Qin Clan appeared in his mind’s eye, and naturally, he also discovered Qin Feng.

An intensely cold aura gushed forth from Qin Wentian as his eyes turned to ice.

Qin Feng was injured. Not only that, he was even imprisoned. He was currently extremely helpless, dirt stained his body and his hair was in disarray. Even his aura was extremely weak.

That sunshine youth from before was now like a beggar, in an extremely pathetic looking state.

Upon seeing such a scene, how could Qin Wentian not be enraged?

In addition, Qin Mu was also imprisoned and his injuries were very serious. As for Qin Qing, she was no longer within the Qin Clan.

Qin Wentian turned and directly moved towards the location where Qin Feng was at.

“Halt.” The young man and woman behind shouted in anger. There were even people stepping forwards, launching attacks towards Qin Wentian.

The palm strike of a young man directly slammed into Qin Wentian’s back, yet everyone only saw runic light shimmering around Qin Wentian’s body. A terrifying rebound force flung the attacker through the air, and with a thunderous boom, a man-made mountain inside the Qin Clan was directly smashed into fragments from absorbing the impact. That young man coughed out blood and fainted, dead.

The expressions of others in the surroundings instantly stiffened in fear as they stared at the departing back of Qin Wentian.

The other members of the Qin Clan all stepped out when they sensed the commotion. But at this moment, Qin Wentian already arrived at the room where Qin Feng was imprisoned at. The room blew apart from the force of his aura, disintegrating into dust.

“Qin Feng.” Qin Wentian called out. Qin Feng inclined his head, both his eyes were red, filled with traces of blood, and had no luster to it. His voice was extremely weak, “Big brother Qin…”

“Swallow this pill.” Qin Wentian fed a pill to Qin Feng. His injuries recovered at an amazing speed, and after some moments, he stared at Qin Wentian. “Big brother Qin, don’t bother about me. Quickly leave the Qin Clan.”

“Don’t worry. Qin Feng, where’s your sister?” Qin Wentian helped Qin Feng up and inquired. This kind little fellow at this moment still didn’t want to implicate him, wanting him to leave here instead.

Speaking of which, Qin Feng and Qin Wentian could be considered having a relationship of an unofficial master and disciple, although Qin Wentian had never officially recruited him.

“Sis…” Qin Feng mumbled, an instant later his eyes turned red as tears flowed down from his face. Raging, he spoke, “Those bunch of bastards actually sent my sister to the City Lord Manor, and even took advantage of that and worked together with the experts from the manor to deal with my grandpa, seizing control of the Qin Clan. They had planned this long ago.”

“Sent her to the City Lord Manor?” Qin Wentian’s eyes gleamed with sharpness. Back then although that uncle of theirs had a conflict with them, it was ultimately still a matter of their family. He had no thoughts of interfering in this and had no rights to. But never would he have imagined that there would be such an ending.

“Yes, they sent her to the City Lord Manor wanting her to accompany some major characters.” Qin Feng’s eyes turned bestial, filled with a baleful aura.

Just when they were speaking, the other experts of the Qin Clan had already surrounded them. Among them, Qin Xiao, Qin Feng’s uncle was present as well. Their expressions were ice-cold, Qin Xiao stared at Qin Wentian and spoke, “Qin Feng, didn’t I tell you earlier to get a good master? You just wouldn’t obey and kept wasting your time and the resources of our Qin Clan. This person is rude and arrogant, even daring to come and make trouble at our Qin Clan.”

“Big brother Qin, this matter has nothing to do with you. You guys don’t try to drag him into this,” Qin Feng stood up, moving in front of Qin Wentian. When Qin Wentian stared at that skinny frame trying to protect him, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

“It’s already too late.” Qin Xiao coldly spoke as killing intent flashed in his eyes. “Daring to interfere in our matters and even injuring a member of our clan, your crimes deserve death!”

“HOW CAN ALL OF YOU DO THIS?!” Qin Feng roared in rage. However, Qin Wentian only calmly placed a hand on his shoulder. He gently spoke, “Qin Feng, are you willing to take me as your master?”

Chapter 758: Overwhelming Slaughter

 

“Qin Feng, are you willing to take me as your master?”

Qin Feng stared at Qin Wentian, as he abruptly froze. He didn’t understand why Qin Wentian would ask him this question at such a moment.

Big brother Qin’s cultivation talent was extremely outstanding and his understanding of cultivation was deeper than anyone he had ever seen before. Before this, big brother Qin had no intentions of accepting any disciples and was only providing pointers to guide him along as he cultivates.

But right now, he was actually asking him if he was willing to become his disciple.

“No, I can’t. The moment I say yes, big brother Qin would never be able to walk away.” Qin Feng’s heart trembled. After which he stared at Qin Wentian, “Big bro Qin, don’t concern yourself with the matters here, leave quickly.”

“Silly fellow, do you think they would spare me?” Qin Wentian shook his head. In the past he didn’t want to interfere in Qin Feng’s family matters. But now, things have already reached an extreme.

Before this he wasn’t willing to accept disciples and would only provide guidance. It wasn’t because he didn’t have the ability to. In fact, be it in his cultivation or experiences in life, they were more than sufficient for him to become Qin Feng’s master. However, Qin Wentian knew that he wouldn’t be able to stay for too long at a single location. He would have to leave here sooner or later and if he did accept Qin Feng as his disciple, he would only serve to delay Qin Feng’s progress.

However, right now he had thought things through. It wouldn’t be a big deal. As long as he didn’t restrict Qin Feng from taking on other masters in the future, everything would be fine. In addition, he was already providing guidance to Qin Feng and he was also truly fond of the personality of this little fellow. Talent and strength weren’t the criteria Qin Wentian was looking for in a disciple. He would only follow his heart, and his aim of accepting disciples in the first place wasn’t to establish any sects.

And naturally, if he was Qin Feng’s master. It would be justifiable for him to take action against these people.

“Qin Feng, are you willing to?” Qin Wentian stared at Qin Feng.

“Big brother Qin…” Qin Feng’s eyes flickered. After a moment, he knelt on the ground, “Disciple pays his respect to master!”

“Rise.” Qin Wentian helped Qin Feng up. While right now in their surroundings, everyone was surveying them two with cold smiles.

“How carefree you seemed.” Qin Xiao’s piercing sarcastic voice drifted over. His gaze was filled with contempt when he stared at the two of them, “Sigh, since you are so recalcitrant, let my Qin Clan send you on your way.”

“Qin Feng, since I am your master now, your sister can also be considered my disciple. Since these people want to deal with you and Qin Qing, I will deal with them using my own methods. Do you have any objections?” Qin Wentian stated as he stared at Qin Feng. Qin Feng’s mouth opened and closed as though he couldn’t believe what he heard. Deal with them?

“Since you remain silent, I will take it as consent.” Qin Wentian then shifted his gaze onto Qin Xiao, stepping out as an ice-cold aura gushed forth from him.

“You must be courting death.” Qin Xiao’s palms waved and astral light flashed. He was gathering his strength. However, everyone present only saw Qin Wentian grabbing outwards in the air. A terrifyingly huge palm imprint manifested from the void and directly grabbed towards Qin Xiao as fearsome rumbling noises resounded through the air.

Qin Xiao’s countenance turn pale white the instant he saw the manifestation of the gigantic palm. His attack was completely smashed apart, the gigantic palm imprint slammed into him, holding him so tightly that he had no way to even move in the slightest.

“STOP!” The others all shouted out when they saw this scene. Qin Wentian’s cold gaze turned over as the aura of a second-level ascendant swept over everything unmasked. A cold wind kicked up, and whenever his eyes passed by, everyone could feel the burning fire of rage within his eyes. At this moment, his boundlessly deep eyes shot out a glacial light, containing an unexcelled sharpness.

Qin Xiao who was being captured felt a stifling pressure boring down on him. Never in his wildest dreams did he imagined that Qin Wentian would actually be so terrifyingly powerful.

“Since you desire to kill me, you must also have already been prepared for your own death.” Qin Wentian coldly spoke. After which, the palm imprint directly smashed into the ground, Qin Xiao was crushed by the might into paste, deader than dead.

Qin Feng stood behind Qin Wentian, stunned by what he saw. Big brother Qin was actually so strong?

“HOW DARE YOU!” The others all erupted forth. Although Qin Wentian was powerful, he was only at the second level of Celestial Phenomenon. They didn’t feel too much fear towards him; as after all, they had more than six experts above the second level of Celestial Phenomenon including two at the fourth-level.

“KILL!”

At this moment a third-level ascendant led the charge, lunging over to Qin Wentian. A golden stone platform appeared out of nowhere, containing a mighty force that wanted to smash everything.

“Bzz!”

Resplendent light flashed as Qin Wentian slashed out with the demon sword strapped on his back. A light humming sound filled the air and in an instant, an endless sword intent engulfed everything here.

Qin Wentian slashed out with his sword fingers, tearing the void into two. The golden stone platform that seemingly contained a million jin of strength was also directly ripped apart.

Qin Wentian transformed into a streak of light and unleashed his constellation. A supreme sword might bore downwards, enveloping this entire space within, saturating the air with an incomparably terrifying killing might.

The instant his Sword Slaughter Constellation appeared, it instantly suppressed the other constellations of the Qin Clan’s experts. It was as though if it was present, other forms of energy would lose their luster before it.

“Such a small clan, yet still wanting to fight and scheme against each other, causing internecine strife. Since you all seek death so badly, I will grant it to you.” As the sound of Qin Wentian’s voice faded, his constellation manifested streams of sword might that slashed downwards. The sword qi produced penetrated through the bodies of everyone as sounds of lacerations echoed out. Quite a few silhouettes fell down from the skies as their bodies were torn and ripped apart by the boundless sword qi, resulting in their death instantly.

This was a domain of swords. Qin Wentian only needed an instant, and the survivors remaining were the two fourth-level ascendants. Although they didn’t die, they could feel chills in their hearts right now. The attack power of the constellation of this young man was simply too inconceivably strong.

Qin Wentian stepped out with the demon sword in his hands. Golden roc wings could be seen behind his back, shimmering with dazzling light.

As the golden light flashed, he soared through the air as the cold light from his sword slashed apart space. This sword strike was a sword strike of absolute death, suppressing the entire space. One of the fourth-level ascendants was so scared that he trembled involuntarily, his countenance turning pale white. He didn’t understand how a second-level ascendant could be so powerful?

“Puchi…”

He only saw darkness as the sword descended.

The remaining ascendant was scared out of his wits, instantly turning to flee. He who was a fourth-level ascendant actually chose to run away instead of fighting.

“Can you run away?” Qin Wentian laughed coldly. Resplendent runic light circulated around his body, flowing to his palms. After that, with a roar of anger that sounded like the bellowing of fiendgods, a fearsome star-seizing palm imprint directly swept tyrannically across the space. With a rumbling boom, the fourth-level ascendant was shattered into pieces, not even his bones remained.

This fight only took a short period of time, but the experts surrounding them had all been annihilated.

The wings on Qin Wentian’s back vanished. He returned to Mu Feng’s side and at this moment, Mu Feng was in a state of dumbfounded amazement, staring at the scene that just occurred.

“Big brother Qin, no, I mean master…” Qin Feng’s lips trembled. Qin Wentian pulled him along and soared to the location where Qin Mu was imprisoned. With a slight slash, the prison shattered. Qin Mu was currently in an extremely miserable state, bound by extremely tough iron shackles. His aura was weak, and his condition was naturally more severe compared to Qin Feng. Evidently, the other experts of the Qin Clan feared that he would escape.

Qin Wentian walked up and split apart the shackles. After that, he withdrew a medicinal pill and passed it to Qin Mu.

After Qin Mu consumed the pill, color soon returned to his face. However, when he saw Qin Wentian, he actually wanted to kneel down but was forcibly stopped by Qin Wentian.

“Back then I already knew sir was an extraordinary character that was why I want those two siblings to interact with you more often. However, this old man had never expected such an ending. This time, the lives of my grandchildren would have to depend on you sir.” Although Qin Mu was held back by Qin Wentian, he still kept his head bowed. After the wave this time, it felt as though he had aged several years.

“Grandpa, sis…” Qin Feng had no way to feel joy despite what happened. Although they were now safe, Qin Qing was still in danger.

“What happened to Qin Qing exactly, tell me in detail.” Qin Wentian spoke.

“Mhm.” Qin Mu nodded and explained, “In the Cloud Prefecture, there was once an exceedingly powerful divine inscriptionist grandmaster named Jiang Chao. His proficiency with weaponsmithing was at the peak and the immortal-ranked weapons he forged were so rare and powerful that even immortal emperors had no way to get them. After he was famous, Jiang Chao established his Jiang Clan, but because he was very arrogant and had offended many people, a mortal enemy fought him and the end result was that both perished. Hence, the Jiang Clan underwent many tumultuous waves and continuously degenerated until who they were today. But even so, the Jiang Clan now was still a power at the peak of the Cloud Prefecture, and was the sacred ground of weapon forging here.”

And now, experts from the Jiang Clan would stop by to visit the Worryfree City. This matter caused a huge commotion and the City Lord in order to seize this opportunity to forge good relations with the Jiang Clan, sent her son Xie Yu to participate in the Immorseize Residence’s gambling match to win the Sky Demon Oracle Bone. Although the Jiang Clan wouldn’t lack of this material, it would still look very good for them if they could manage to gift such a rare and valuable item as a gift. In addition, they wanted to recruit all the beauties in Worryfree City to accompany the experts from the Jiang Clan. Qin Xiao that bastard actually registered Qin Qing. This was basically pushing her into the fire pit, he knew very well that I would never agreed and thus, plotted with experts from the City Lord Manor to injure me, killing two birds with one stone sending away Qin Qing and usurping the position of Clan Lord.

“The experts from the City Lord Manor took her away by force?” Qin Wentian coldly asked.

“Mhm, to gain favor with the Jiang Clan, how could they care about such a small clan like ours? What I’m worried about most is that Qin Qing would truly be selected. If that’s the case, I don’t dare to imagine what might happen.” Qin Mu’s eyes was filled with an intense worry.

Based on Qin Qing’s personality, she would never please the other party willingly even if she was selected. This was truly a worrisome matter indeed.

“I will think of something to resolve this matter.” Qin Wentian stated. The Jiang Clan, the City Lord Manor, both of these were major powers. But since Qin Qing that little lass was abducted, there was no way he could sit on the fence.

Qin Wentian wasn’t a saint. However, Qin Qing and him had interacted for a period of time. He couldn’t stay out of this matter and watch her die. Although he might be in danger, he couldn’t care less!

Chapter 759: Arrival

 

In the City Lord Manor of the Worryfree City, flags adorned the manor as experts stood in formations.

In the vast location that was the City Lord Manor, the experts gathered here were as many as the clouds, all were here to welcome the arrival of those from the Jiang Clan.

Behind the experts, were numerous beautiful young women standing neatly in rows. These women were the elite beauties of the Worryfree City that were recruited by the City Lord.

Today, was precisely the day when the experts from the Jiang Clan would arrive.

Jiang Kuang, a young master of the Jiang Clan was currently in the lead with several experts around him. There were even experts at the immortal-foundation realm acting as his guards.

For such a small city like the Worryfree City, he could destroy it on a whim if he wasn’t happy. How would the City Lord dare to not respect him?

Other than the experts from the City Lord Manor, experts from the other immortal-ranked powers of the Worryfree City were also present. An example was the sect leader and supreme elder of the Golden Armor Sect and also, experts from the Fall Kill Sect, experts from the commanding garrison, etc. All of them were here to welcome the arrival of the Jiang Clan.

Han Luo from the commanding garrison stood within the crowd. His gaze landed on the two rows of beauties, admiring them, feeling a stirring in his heart. However, an expression of bewilderment soon flashed in his eyes when he noticed a person. This person was none other than the beautiful genius of the Golden Armor Sect, Zhao Yuyan!

Zhao Yuyan actually came to be an attendant? Based on her status, she should have done so willingly. Also, the sexy attire she was wearing further accentuated her curves, giving off a mesmerizing aura. However, in her eyes, there was only resolve, and a deep obsession.

“Has this woman gone mad? Does she want to use her beauty to get into the Jiang Clan?” Han Luo mused.

However, there were many among these beauties who had the same thinking as Zhao Yuyan. They could be considered top class in the Worryfree City and had many people pursuing them. But now, they would rather become attendants, waiting upon the experts of the Jiang Clan. All they wanted was an opportunity.

However, Qin Qing didn’t have such thoughts in her mind at all. At this moment she stood within the crowd, her delicate frame was soul-stirring and those limpid eyes of her were filled with traces of trepidation. Right now she could only hope that all this would blow over quickly and she wouldn’t be selected. She wanted nothing more than to hurry home to see what happened to her grandfather and Qin Feng.

A slight wind gusted by. The gazes of everyone stared ahead and other than the experts and beauties, many of the common populace of Worryfree City were present as well.

Finally, under the gazes filled with admiration of the crowd, a row of silhouettes appeared in the air. They stood upon flying boats, soaring through the air, and the design of the boats were intricately exquisite and beautiful, different from each other.

The boat in the center was the largest. A young man stood on it, his gaze turned forward. The speed of the boat gradually slowed as did the other air vessels around it. Moments later, they came to a halt in the air space above the City Lord Manor as their gazes stared down at those gathered below. The formations of experts gathered and rows of beauties weren’t anything strange in their perspective. It was as though these people were already used to such a welcome scene.

After all, with their statuses at this place, it was exceedingly normal for the city lord to do things to gain their favor. They naturally wouldn’t be surprised.

“City Lord of Worryfree City, Bu Yanyu, greets the experts of the Jiang Clan.” Bu Yanyu respectfully stated. After which, the experts who gathered bowed in the direction of the Jiang Clan to show their respect.

The young man that was Jiang Kuang had no expression on his face. He casually glanced at everyone before his eyes moved to the beauties behind them. Even so, there was no fluctuations to his countenance.

Those below, no one spoke. Silence cloaked the atmosphere and after a few breaths of time, Jiang Kuang opened his mouth and stated, “City Lord Bu must have worked hard.”

“This is only to be expected and is part of my duty, how could I dare to accept the claim of ‘working hard’? The banquet is already prepared in our manor, we warmly welcome your excellency to enter.” Bu Yanyu was also a rare beauty. Her smile was filled with a mature charm and her eyes sparkled gracefully.

“Mhm.” Jiang Kuang nodded. After which, he descended from the flying boat as the other experts followed him. Bu Yanyu and the rest instantly stepped out yet the left the position in the center open.

“Everyone, please.” Bu Yanyu politely stated. Jiang Kuang and his experts walked in front, moving towards the City Lord Manor.

Before him were two rows of beauties at the side. Naturally, this was Bu Yanyu’s intentions. Jiang Kuang’s eyes roamed through the beauties and there were many who were desperately trying to establish eye contact, their eyes exuding passion. However, Jiang Kuang didn’t react, his gaze merely passed them by, giving no regards to them.

This continued until he met Zhao Yuyan. Just a single glance told Jiang Kuang that Zhao Yuyan’s eyes were different from the others. She had an unyielding belief in herself, and a faint hint of pride in her gaze. Her demeanor was also extraordinary.

“What’s your name?” Jiang Kuang’s indifferent voice echoed out in Zhao Yuyan’s ear, causing her body to tremble slightly. Her eyes filled with heat staring at Jiang Kuang as she replied, “Zhao Yuyan, I’m proficient in weaponsmithing and can currently forge fifth-ranked divine weapons.”

“Oh?” A look of surprise flashed past Jiang Kuang’s eyes. So it turned out that she was a weaponsmithing genius, no wonder her eyes were filled with heat when she saw him. The Jiang Clan was at the peak of the Cloud Prefecture and was a sacred ground of weaponsmithing. There were simply too many geniuses who showed inclination to enter their Jiang Clan.

“I will remember it.” Jiang Kuang faintly commented. After which, he continued his way. The beauties by his side were as many as the clouds, constituting a dazzling sight.

However, there was one among them who was extremely conspicuous. This young lady’s clothing was elegant and her behavior was different from the others. She kept her head low, not looking at him, and both her hands were clutching her dress, appearing extremely nervous.

“Lift your head.” Jiang Kuang quietly stated. Qin Qing shuddered slightly, in an instant she could feel the gazes of many landing onto her. Her heart pounded rapidly as she slowly inclined her head, staring at Jiang Kuang with traces of fear in her eyes.

Jiang Kuang’s eyes sparkled with light as he asked, “What’s your name?”

Qin Qing shivered, her hands tightly clutching her dress as she pressed her lips tight.

“He’s asking you a question.” Xie Yu coldly spoke, his evil gaze landed on Qin Qing causing her to speak in a quavering voice, “My name is Qin Qing.”

“Mhm.” Jiang Kuang mumbled and continued walking in front.

“Follow after him.” Xie Shi turned and spoke to the other females. All of them then followed behind Jiang Kuang, heading towards the banquet. After a short period of time, everyone was seated. The Jiang Clan naturally occupied the most important seats, and below them were experts from the City Lord Manor and other major powers.

As for the beauties, they naturally stood behind the Jiang Clan. Jiang Kuang softly spoke, “Zhao Yuyan, Qin Qing. Both of you come to my side.”

Zhao Yuyan’s eyes flashed with a startling glow, as she stepped out moving towards Jiang Kuang. The countenance of her master, the supreme elder of the Golden Armor Sect instantly turned sharp when he saw that. He didn’t expect Zhao Yuyan would be willing to do this. Seems like this disciple of his was very unhappy with the punishment that was levied against her prior to this.Qin Qing’s beautiful eyes flickered, but she stood there unmoving.

“Why are you not going over yet?” Xie Yu impatiently asked.

“I don’t wish to go over.” Qin Qing bolstered up her courage, her countenance turning pale. When the sound of her voice faded, many cold intents landed on her, causing her to feel chills in her heart. Even her legs were beginning to tremble.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Kuang spoke again, “Come over now.”

At this moment, Qin Qing felt an impulse of wanting to cry. Her body was shivering, and upon staring at Jiang Kuang’s expression, she finally caved in, slowly lifting her foot and walking a step in the direction of Jiang Kuang.

“Mhm?” At this instant, an expert from the Jiang Clan beside Jiang Kuang abruptly inclined his head, casting his gaze towards the horizons. Very swiftly, Bu Yanyu, Xie Shi and the other immortal-ranked experts all turned their gazes over as well. There was a surge of immortal qi currently gushing over from there.

Instantly, a beam of resplendent light shot past. They only saw a white-robed young man stepping on a flying shuttle soaring through the skies with a speed as quick as lightning, heading towards them.

“Immortal weapon?” Jiang Kuang and the others stared at the flying shuttle, feeling taken aback in their hearts.

“IMPUDENT!” Xie Shi roared in rage, his voice causing the space to tremble. That young man halted, but he continued standing in the air, his eyes sweeping through the crowd containing an unmatched sharpness within.

“It’s you?!” Xie Yu’s countenance turned ice cold. Zhao Yuyan as well. The young man who just arrived was actually none other than Qin Wentian.

They only saw that at this moment, Qin Wentian was wielding an immortal sword in his hand. His demonic eyes raked through the crowd as he coldly spoke, “Who was it that brought my little sister here? Are you all courting death?”

His eyes were as sharp as swords, directly looking at Xie Yu. This scene made the hearts of everyone present trembled. Even immortal-foundation experts had looks of astonishment on their faces. This young man was so brazen, his cultivation base was only at the second level of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm yet he dared to act so audacious? His background must be extraordinary.

“The aura of this young man is extraordinary, and seeing that he has an immortal-ranked weapon in his hands, he should be someone from a major power.” The crowd speculated.

Right now, they only saw Qin Wentian turning his head, casting his glance towards Bu Yanyu and Xie Shi as he coldly asked, “You lot from the City Lord Manor, have you all grown tired of living?”

Chapter 760: Demanding Release

 

The words spoken by Qin Wentian caused the hearts of everyone to tremble.

The instant the sacred ground of the Cloud Prefecture, the Jiang Clan came by, the City Lord Manor immediately prepared a banquet for welcome but right now this young man was actually threatening the City Lord in front of the crowd. Was he the one who had grown tired of living?

Everyone that was present at the scene including those from the Jiang Clan were all surveying Qin Wentian. With an immortal weapon in his hand, his immortal-ranked speed-type treasure, his extraordinary demeanor… Xie Shi and City Lord Bu Yanyu didn’t immediately respond. They too, were studying Qin Wentian.

There were too many powers in the immortal realms. Although your strength might be many times stronger than someone, you still had to make sure to see if your opponent had any background supporting him and whether are you sufficient to deal with any fallout if you choose to do so. If you make the slightest mistake, a disastrous calamity would descend upon you and you might even find your entire clan annihilated. This was something very normal. An example was when the City Lord Manor was recruiting females in the Worryfree City, they could do so with impunity because they were the strongest here. But for those females belonging to strong powers, they wouldn’t dare to act so presumptuously.

Qin Qing, a young girl from the Qin Clan didn’t have any background to support her. This was why they dared to directly abduct her.

In the immortal realms, those tyrannical bullies who didn’t have good judgment would often encounter the fate of having their entire clan or sect destroyed. This sort of thing happened quite frequently.

Even Jiang Chao, the old ancestor of the Jiang Clan. How awe-inspiring and powerful was he when he first established the Jiang Clan? Even immortal emperors had need of his services but at the very end, didn’t he fell as well? Although he also managed to kill his opponent, his death brought calamity upon on the Jiang Clan. From then on, they suffered setback after setback, falling from their lofty position, their status a far cry from before.

Zhao Yuyan, Xie Yu and Han Luo all stared at Qin Wentian as different thoughts surfaced in their minds. They were all speculating what sort of character was this man who dared to seize the Sky Demon Oracle Bone back then from all of them in the Immorseize Residence.

As for Qin Qing, her beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian, turning red with emotions. Her gentle frame trembled lightly as she called out in her heart, “Big brother Qin.”

She evidently never expected her big brother Qin to be so powerful, actually daring to storm the City Lord Manor, and even to the point of threatening those from the City Lord Manor.

Bu Yanyu stared at Qin Wentian as she asked. “What power do you belong to? You actually dared to be so brazen.”

Bu Yanyu was a City Lord and was now being threatened by someone so much weaker. She naturally had the bearing of a City Lord and was angered. However, she wouldn’t dare to directly act against Qin Wentian. Without first ascertaining his background, her heart was filled with trepidation. A second level ascendant actually possessed two immortal-ranked treasures? This fact already proved something. If someone said that Qin Wentian had no immortal-ranked experts supporting him from the shadows, who would believed it?

Qin Wentian merely glanced at Bu Yanyu before shifting his eyes back to Qin Qing. “Qin Qing, who abducted you?”

Qin Qing’s gaze froze as she mumbled under her breath, “Big brother Qin.”

“Who?” Qin Wentian asked again.

Qin Qing’s eyes searched through the crowd. After some moments, her gaze landed on an expert from the City Lord Manor. She pointed to that person and spoke, “He’s the one.”

Qin Wentian’s eyes then turned over in the direction of the abductor.

“Bang!”

Astral light flashed. Instantly, a terrifying pressure gushed forth from Qin Wentian. His figure directly dashed towards his opponent. Runic light shimmered around his palms in an incomparably terrifying manner. A fearsome palm imprint erupted forth, blotting out the skies, instantly appearing in front of his opponent.

The expert he was facing was a fifth level ascendant. At the instant where Qin Wentian lunged over, he was already in rapid retreat. The speed of Qin Wentian’s palm strike was simply too fast and contained within it was an overwhelming suppressive might that was augmented by the Fiendgod Heavenly Suppression Art. His fleshly body was also tempered by the Fiendgod Body Refinement Art and hence with all these factors, how could the force contained within his attacks not be tyrannical?

With a thunderous boom, the defenses of his opponent broke and directly coughed out blood. His expression drastically changed yet before he could react, in the next instant, he only saw a surge of sword qi gushing over, directly separating his head from his body, condemning him to death in a domineering fashion.

This sudden scene caused the eyes of everyone present to turn sharp. What a fellow, he actually dared to kill someone from the City Lord Manor in plain sight.

City Lord Bu Yanyu and her husband, the immortal foundation expert Xie Shi, made no moves to stop Qin Wentian. It wasn’t that they couldn’t, but they rather take this chance to see what sort of character this young man was exactly. They witnessed a terrifying attack strength from Qin Wentian earlier and were certain that he must have cultivated some immortal-ranked innate techniques or arts before or he wouldn’t be able to erupt forth with so much power.

“That layer of shimmering runic light, the pressure exuded from his fleshly body. It must be from cultivating some terrifying body refinement methods. His palm attacks coupled with the power of his body seemed to grant him indomitable strength and I can faintly sense the presence of divine might within his attacks. There’s no mistake he must have cultivated some extremely powerful immortal arts before.”

Up till now, everything Qin Wentian had revealed was extraordinary. Over ninety percent of the people present already believed that Qin Wentian hailed from a major power.

Not only for City Lord Bu Yanyu, a majority of the others thought so as well.

“On the day of welcoming the arrival of the Jiang Clan, there’s someone who actually came to create trouble. City Lord Bu, you should at the very least say something right?” A voice transmitted over. The person who spoke was none other than the master of Zhao Yuyan, the supreme elder of the Golden Armor Sect. He naturally knew who Qin Wentian was. Back then when his strand of immortal sense was suppressing Qin Wentian, the immortal sense of a man in white actually entered his sea of consciousness through his immortal sense and could effortlessly destroy him if he wanted to. How could he not understand that there was a supremely strong power behind Qin Wentian?

At this moment if the City Lord acted against Qin Wentian, the City Lord Manor would most probably be razed to the ground. The supreme elder of the Golden Armor Sect clearly had ill intentions in his heart.

“Mother, this person was the winner of the Sky Demon Oracle Bone that time. The immortal sense of the supreme elder from the Golden Armor Sect appeared before, hence he naturally recognized Qin Wentian. After that, a mysterious white-robed man appeared and with a single word ‘scram,’ the immortal sense of the elder instantly vanished.” Although Xie Yu also didn’t like Qin Wentian, seeing how domineering Qin Wentian was as well as the provocation from the supreme elder of the Golden Armor Sect, how could he not understand what the supreme elder was trying to do?

Bu Yanyu stared at Qin Wentian, and felt even more sure of her own conjecture. Seems like the supreme elder might know something. And if this was the case, this mysterious young man might hail from a supreme power outside the Cloud Prefecture. This translates into, he was from a major power where she, the City Lord of a small city, couldn’t afford to antagonize.

“Sir, Who are you exactly, why are you here at my City Lord Manor to make trouble today?” Bu Yuyan stared at Qin Wentian as she spoke. Qin Wentian maintained his silence, he only coldly glanced at her before shifting his gaze to Jiang Kuang. “By rights, I shouldn’t be here to disturb the welcome of the of the arrival of experts from the Jiang Clan. But since my younger sister was forcibly abducted, I can only appear to take her back. I wonder if the Jiang Clan would be willing to give I, Qin, some face?”

Qin Wentian did things so domineeringly because he wanted to create a false impression that he had an extremely powerful background.

In the immortal realms, the weak were eaten by the strong everyday. Only when you had a sufficiently powerful background would others not dare to touch you. In addition, he had immortal-ranked treasures, and even immortal arts. It was not too difficult for him to create this illusion.

Naturally this wasn’t for himself. He did this because he wanted to save Qin Qing. There was no other methods left.

“Of course there’s no problem.” Jiang Kuang who had been silent from the start was still surveying Qin Wentian. Despite Qin Wentian knowing his status, he actually still dared to be so impudent. He truly wanted to know who Qin Wentian was.

“However at the very least, you have to tell me who you are. If not, what qualifications do you have to ask me to release her?”

The ‘who you are’ from Jiang Kuang’s words were naturally not as simple as asking what was his name.

How ridiculous, a second level ascendant actually killed someone with his overwhelming combat strength and wanted him Jiang Kuang to release someone just like that?

If he really did so, the prestige of the Jiang Clan would surely be affected.

No matter who Qin Wentian was, even though he might have a tyrannically powerful background, what Qin Wentian had done up till now was still far from enough to demand a release.

Silence descended once more, leaving it to Jiang Kuang to control the situation. The experts from the City Lord Manor dared not interfere. This was what they wanted as well, they hoped to remain neutral so as to not offend both sides, wanting to retreat from this in one piece.

Everything would be decided by the Jiang Clan. If this brazen young man didn’t have a powerful enough background, things wouldn’t be as simple as them bringing away Qin Qing now. Even Qin Wentian’s survival today would be an issue.

“Are you certain that you don’t want to release her?” Qin Wentian’s expression turned ice cold yet he was silently hoping for Jiang Kuang to cave in his heart.

But since Jiang Kuang was a young master of the Jiang Clan, how could it be so easy for him to demand a release? Although the City Lord Manor might be filled with trepidation from his dominating performance, the Jiang Clan might not be. After all, they would be considered a power at the absolute peak of the Cloud Prefecture.

It was fine if Qin Qing weren’t selected but just as luck would have it, Qin Qing was noticed by Jiang Kuang.

“That would have to depend on whether you have the qualifications or not to make me release her.” A sharp light flashed through Jiang Kuang’s eyes. He just arrived at the City Lord Manor and there was already someone coming to make trouble for him. He wanted to see what Qin Wentian had up his sleeves!

Chapter 761: Exchanging Blows

 

Qin Wentian could clearly see the provocation in Jian Kuang’s black eyes. How could Jiang Kuang be so easily persuaded?

“My sister was abducted by forces from the City Lord Manor and had nothing to do with the Jiang Clan. If you are willing to release her, I, Qin, shall remember this favor.” Qin Wentian spoke once again, his eyes fixed on Jiang Kuang.

However, Jiang Kuang only smiled and shook his head, “No.”

Qin Wentian’s eyes flickered with a cold light, his gaze sharpening considerably. He stepped forward, causing a torrential amount of qi to gush forth, and spoke coldly,, “Since you doubt my abilities, let me clearly show you what I can do.”

A fearsome battle intent permeated from him, gushing straight towards Jiang Kuang. Jiang Kuang’s cultivation was at the fifth level of Celestial Phenomenon, three levels higher compared to Qin Wentian.

In addition, as a young master of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Kuang’s combat strength was undoubtedly extremely powerful and could out-rival the typical fifth-level ascendants from the City Lord Manor.

And yet, Qin Wentian was directing a frenzied battle intent towards Jiang Kuang, openly challenging him.

Qin Wentian was announcing his intention to fight.

Even under such a situation, Qin Wentian still dared to fight against Jiang Kuang.

“Big Brother Qin.” Qin Qing’s eyes teared up, feeling gratitude in her heart. She’d heard Qin Wentian mention that he was from a particle world, so how could he have a powerful background? Normally, killing people with such domineering force was just a method to bedazzle others with their strength. He was a taking a huge risk by doing this, yet Qin Wentian hadn’t hesitated to act—all for the sake of saving her.

Also, Qin Wentian seemed to be incredibly powerful. Back then, the person who’d injured her grandfather had been effortlessly killed by Qin Wentian.

“Big Brother Qin is such a good man, and has such outstanding talent. He must definitely not come to misfortune for my sake. I would rather die here than to have anything happen to him,” Qin Qing silently prayed. That fragile young woman’s beautiful eyes suddenly flashed with resolve. Earlier, she had been the one to implicate her grandpa and her brother, Qin Feng. This time around, she must no longer implicate anyone else.

A powerful gust of wind tore through the air. Qin Wentian’s aura climbed rapidly as his black hair fluttered in the wind. His entire persona gave off an extremely demonic feeling, circulating with resplendent runic light as though a fiendgod armor was enveloping his body, thereby granting him an aura of being unexcelled in this world.

Beside Jiang Kuang, quite a few men stood up. Terrifying immortal might permeated the area, gushing towards Qin Wentian. Yet at this moment, Jiang Kuang stood up and waved his hands, signaling for his retainers to stop. Also, from him, an extreme sharpness emanated, his entire person resembling a supreme worldly treasure filled with destructive might.

“Second level of Celestial Phenomenon?” Jiang Kuang coldly laughed. Their cultivation bases were three levels apart. Although Qin Wentian effortlessly slew a fifth-level ascendant earlier, he felt there was no need to even put Qin Wentian in his eyes at all.

His combat prowess was naturally incomparable to the expert that was killed earlier. Furthermore, he had no way to imagine that he would lose to a second-level ascendant. He would absolutely not be defeated.

“BOOM!” Stepping forth, Jiang Kuang moved out. A baleful aura swept over everything, as an extremely terrifying black-colored glow circulated around him.

“RUBMLE~” Qin Wentian lifted his palms, directly launching out an attack. His Star-Seizing Palm Imprint blotted out the sun, it was incomparably large as though it could shatter the skies with a single strike. As that palm imprint descended, it completely enveloped Jiang Kuang as it smashed downwards.

A black battle lance manifested in Jiang Kuang’s hand. A destructive qi circulated around the tip of the lance as Jiang Kuang stabbed forth with it. As he concentrated all the power behind this strike within a single point. With a deafening eruption, the palm imprint was completely shattered, while the black battle lance seemed to have no damage done to it.

Qin Wentian naturally did not think that it would be sufficient to defeat Jiang Kuang, a fifth-level ascendant with a single attack. When he shot out that first strike, he had already been gathering his energy. The runic light circulating around him grew even more resplendent and after absorbing the Sky Demon Oracle Bone, his fleshly body defense naturally became even more terrifying. Right now, his body could be described as having skin of divine copper and steel bones. With many runic imprints circulating around it. It was as though his body by itself was already an extremely powerful divine weapon.

The Fiendgod Body Refinement Art could help one establish a true fiendgod body.

“Your attack is too weak.” Jiang Kuang stood in the air as he spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, Qin Wentian’s palm blasted out once more. In that instant, an incomparably dazzling light enveloped this space, the radiance of it causing one’s heart to shudder. Thunderous rumbling sounds rang out, but Jiang Kuang merely snorted. The greyish qi around his lance danced wildly and erupted forth once more, shattering the palm imprint apart.

“Just a mere second-level ascendant, how could his attacks threaten the life of young master Jiang?” An expert from the Jiang Clan indifferently spoke as he spectated their battle from below.

“That’s right, this person truly doesn’t know the immensity of the heavens and earth.” Everyone commented, agreeing with the Jiang Clan expert. However, there were quite a few who understood that in reality, Qin Wentian’s combat prowess was truly tyrannical. If the two of them exchanged their positions, Qin Wentian with a cultivation base of the fifth level and Jiang Kuang with a cultivation base at the second level, Jiang Kuang would undoubtedly be smashed apart with a single blow.

However now, Jiang Kuang had no way to do that.

Qin Wentian’s countenance was filled with determination and had no other fluctuations to it. His palms blasted out once again, shaking the heavens and earth. Numerous palm imprints shot out with the power of pure destruction, suppressing everything in this world. His palm imprints seemed to be chained together, transforming into a torrential ocean wave that swept over everything with indomitable force.

Jiang Kuang frowned. That incomparably huge palm imprint in the air could actually split into so many palm imprints and each and every one of them had the power of that torrential wave from earlier. What’s more, the palm imprints were superimposing over one another now, multiplying the force within by an unknown number of times.

But even so, would it be useful?

This would at most make Jiang Kuang take this more seriously. Right now, his body circulated with terrifying black-colored light as several ferocious lances manifested around him, each filled with the terrifying power of corrosion.

“GO!” Jiang Kuang howled. The numerous battle lances penetrated space, shooting forth with blinding speed.

“RUMBLE~” The terrifying battle lances smashed into the sky-blotting, incomparably large palm imprint, causing cracks to unceasingly appear on it. Finally, with a booming sound, the palm imprint shattered as the lips of Jiang Kuang curled up in an unpleasant smile.

“You should be approaching your limits soon.” Jiang Kuang coldly spoke. If Qin Wentian was only so strong, he had the confidence that he would be able to annihilate Qin Wentian today.

But at this very moment, he saw Qin Wentian’s physique growing larger and larger. In addition, the light from the fiendgod armor grew even more brilliant, making it so that it seemed like a true fiendgod. Qin Wentian’s large eyes radiated coldness, causing people to feel chills in their hearts.

“My limit? It’s still too early for that.” Qin Wentian coldly laughed. Just like before, he blasted out that incomparably large palm imprint. But this time around, the imprint manifested was thicker than earlier, much larger as well, truly possessing a world-shaking might.

“How preposterous.”

Jiang Kuang was truly angered, that terrifying light spiraled about frenziedly as cracking sounds rang out from his body as he too, expanded in size. The numerous battle lances congregated, forming into a supreme one. He coldly snorted while he stared at Qin Wentian, “You have been attacking continuously, it’s about time you have a taste of my attacks.”

“Sorry, I don’t have the time.” Qin Wentian replied. His palms could pluck the stars and seize the moon, instantly erupting forth with volcanic might, so strong that it was inconceivable.

“Is that so?” Jiang Kuang’s eyes burned with fury. Earlier, his attacks were only probes, wanting to humiliate Qin Wentian, making him understand that a second-level ascendant was nothing in front of him. However, Qin Wentian’s strength was beyond his expectations. He who was three cultivation levels higher was actually forced into defense. If this continued, he would take on the passive role and his face would be completely thrown away.

Jiang Kuang had to initiate the attacks.

“BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!” Numerous large palm imprints descended from the skies, Jiang Kuang continuously counter-attacked them, the shockwaves from their clashes were even causing the void to tremble.

“This attacking strength…” Jiang Kuang felt extremely unhappy in his heart.

“To think that young master Jiang is still playing around with him. From my perspective, he should directly end him.” The spectators below murmured, yet they didn’t know how great the pressure Jiang Kuang was facing at this moment.

In the air, several incarnations of Qin Wentian appeared, numbering in the tens of thousands, all of them attacking at the same time. With a magnitude of such an attack, even if it was Jiang Kuang, he too felt a shiver down his spine as his heart trembled with trepidation!

Chapter 762: Ruthless

 

A myriad of suppressive destruction palm imprints descended, even the void seemed about to collapse. Jiang Kuang gritted his teeth. With a roar of rage, his constellation was unleashed. A gigantic lance coalesced from astral light appeared behind him as currents of destruction energy flooded the area. This was a manifestation of his constellation.

“KILL!” Jiang Kuang was truly angered, he was actually forced to such a state by Qin Wentian. At this moment, the constellation behind him swept out, forcibly sweeping away the myriad of descending palm imprints amidst unceasingly thunderous sounds born from the impact.

Jiang Kuang then stepped forward, controlling his manifestation, stabbing towards Qin Wentian.

However, at this moment, Qin Wentian’s body became incomparably terrifying. Resplendent runic lights enveloped him as he continued expanding in size, resembling a true fiendgod.

He then too, unleashed his constellation. Behind Qin Wentian, a glowing towering gigantic figure could be seen, it gave off the sensation that it could even trampled the heavens, and suppress everything in existence.

Qin Wentian stomped down in the air, as the giant figure behind him mirrored his movements. The constellation lance of Jiang Kuang was directly trampled underneath as it let out mad whistling noises. But under the crushing impact of the suppressive force, it eventually could hold no longer as cracks appeared on it.

“Since you want to talk about limits, let me show you mine.” Qin Wentian emotionlessly stated. A white candle flame illuminated his body, joining together with the circulating runic lights. At this instant, Qin Wentian seemed to be bathing in a divine glow, exuding an unfathomably powerful aura.

“Suppress!”

Qin Wentian coldly spoke as he unleashed the suppressive power of the Fiendgod Suppression Art, jolting the lance so badly that it shattered apart. Even the space between them was trembling, and at this instant there seemed to be an area of suppressive destruction around Qin Wentian.

“Young master be careful!” An immortal-foundation expert sensed the degree of force and warned Jiang Kuang. This attack by Qin Wentian was inconceivably powerful and had reached the standard of Jiang Kuang’s extreme limit. Who would have thought that the combat prowess of this second-level ascendant would be so shockingly powerful.

Jiang Kuang grimaced. A moment later, an actual short-looking black lance appeared in his hands as he casually pierced it out. Buffeting storms of destruction ravaged the area where he pointed as a desolate black aura blanketed the entire space. Qin Wentian explosively retreated, the force behind his powerful attack was wiped out completely by Jiang Kuang’s weapon in an instant.

“Immortal-ranked weapon.” Qin Wentian retreated, staring at the lance in Jiang Kuang’s hand. His eyes shone with an unmatched sharpness as he stared at Jiang Kuang and spoke, “A fifth-level ascendant is merely at this level? Regardless of combat prowess or weapons, I exceed you in both aspects. I, Qin, never had any grudges with your Jiang Clan and don’t want to start an incident. If you release my sister now, I can forgive and forget everything.”

Qin Wentian’s tone of voice was as domineering as before. This wasn’t because he was confident but rather, it was because he deeply understood a certain logic. In the immortal realms, if he displayed himself as weak, don’t even mention about him fighting against Jiang Kuang. It would be a problem for him to even walk to Jiang Kuang’s side without interference from other sources.

Only by displaying an arrogance that belonged to yourself would the other party give you sufficient respect. Naturally, the prerequisite is that your strength must reach a certain level to match with the arrogance you displayed. If not, how could one stun all the experts present at the banquet here today?

And indeed as expected, after those present personally witnessed Qin Wentian’s overwhelming combat strength with their eyes, the vigilance and respect in their eyes deepened by several degrees. Given the level of combat prowess they just witnessed, they in fact wouldn’t believe it if there were people who said Qin Wentian wasn’t from a major power.

This person seemed so young and should be within only forty years of age.

Jiang Kuang inclined his head, staring at Qin Wentian. Three levels… This guy jumped three levels to fight him and he was the one at a disadvantage. This naturally wasn’t a glorious matter.

“Your combat prowess is really not bad. But if it’s only like this, I still have no wish to release her.” Jiang Kuang stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke. Today, he definitely will make Qin Wentian reveal his background. If he doesn’t, he didn’t even need to think about bringing that young woman away.

Jiang Kuang didn’t care for how domineering Qin Wentian was. The Jiang Clan wasn’t simply a strong power, they had always maintained connections with several powers on their level. Even if Qin Wentian hailed from a power they couldn’t afford to offend, he believed that that power wouldn’t intervene and deal with his Jiang Clan for such a small matter.

In addition, if Qin Wentian truly had this background, he would have long revealed its name. Why was there a need for him to act like this?

Jiang Kuang was even speculating that the power Qin Wentian belonged to is weaker than his Jiang Clan. This must be the reason why Qin Wentian didn’t dare to say which power he was from.

Hence, he wanted to force Qin Wentian to say the name. If not, he wouldn’t release Qin Qing.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” Qin Wentian coldly asked. That ice-cold eyes of his looked at Jiang Kuang, containing a terrifying frost within.

“Yes.” Jiang Kuang nodded.

“Very well.”

Qin Wentian replied. At this moment he was exceedingly calm. The crowd only saw the light around him shimmering as he stepped towards Qin Qing.

“You want to directly seize her away?” A mocking light flickered in Jiang Kuang’s eyes. The battle lance in his hands stabbed out again as a boundless destructive energy gushed towards Qin Wentian. It was so strong that even the space between them felt like it was about to be torn apart.

Qin Wentian stepped onto the immortal-ranked shuttle and soared through the skies in a beautiful arc. His third eye appeared, its energy directly penetrating through Jiang Kuang’s sea of consciousness, causing a terrifying constellation to appear in his mind. There seemed to be countless golden-colored figures that were rushing at him, and the sight of this caused his mind to trembled.

The demon sword slashed through like a streak of lightning, and accompanying the humming of the demon sword, was an exceedingly fearsome killing intent being exuded.

“YOU DARE?” The nearby immortal-foundation experts all roared in rage upon seeing Qin Wentian releasing killing intent. Even before they closed in, the weight of their combined immortal might had already arrived.

However, at this moment, Qin Wentian directly turned his palm and pressed it into his body. A strand of true immortal might circulated around him before transforming into a layer of immortal armor. Even Jiang Kuang’s immortal-ranked battle lance was unable to penetrate his defense. Qin Wentian continued his way towards Jiang Kuang, soaring over on his shuttle.

“IMPUDENT!”

An immortal expert from the Jiang Clan executed a fearsome finger art, blasting onto Qin Wentian. However, the immortal armor around Qin Wentian absorbed the force of the blow as dull thudding sound echoed in the air. Yet, the armor wasn’t destroyed despite absorbing the power of that attack. Qin Wentian paid it no heed and continued his way forward.

The speed of the shuttle was simply too fast. In the blink of an eye, Qin Wentian already arrived before Jiang Kuang.

“You…” Jiang Kuang paled when he discovered that his attack had no effect on Qin Wentian. Right now, he could only mount a hasty retreat. There was no time for him to take out other treasures during the instance of this short moment.

Everything happened too quickly.

“Puchi…” How sharp was the demon sword? It tore through Jiang Kuang’s body like cutting apart tofu, instantly sapping away at Jiang Kuang’s life force.

“NO!” Jiang Kuang’s countenance drastically changed as he shrieked in fear. Those present at the banquet all stood up and at this moment, they only felt chills trembling their bodies as they involuntarily shivered. For some reason at this moment, they felt cold, so cold.

Today was supposed to be a day of welcome for the Jiang Clan, and as a representative and leader of the entourage that came today, Jiang Kuang was actually killed by someone?

“Everyone halt.” An ice cold voice echoed from the air. Qin Wentian pointed his sword at Jiang Kuang’s heart. The flowing armor of light around his body had now been completely shattered. Experts from the Jiang Clan surrounding him as an oppressive aura gushed forth from them, each of them shaking with anger. They stared at Qin Wentian with cold eyes while feeling their hearts pounding madly in a frenzy when they saw the sword pointed at their young master’s heart.

“Release him.” An immortal-foundation expert waved his hand as the surrounding space instantly solidified, as though some force was locking it down.

“Chi, chi…” A light sound rang out, it was the sound of a sword piercing into flesh. Qin Wentian held Jiang Kuang with one hand while his other continued driving the sword in, aiming for the heart.

At this instant, Jiang Kuang was completely frightened silly and was as dumb as a wooden chicken. Even in his dreams never would he have imagined that this person was able to take his life away at this instant. In addition, this person actually dared to do this…

“Open a path up.” Qin Wentian dragged Jiang Kuang as he walked forward. The experts around all panted nervously as the fluctuations of their powerful auras could be felt. However, despite so, Qin Wentian continued forward and they involuntarily stepped aside, opening up a path for him. Nobody dared to obstruct him, this young man was crazy. In front of so many immortal-foundation experts, he even dared to be so ruthless and wouldn’t hesitate to kill Jiang Kuang.

“Release me, and we shall call it quits with the matter earlier.” Jiang Kuang only felt his heart go cold. He was truly frightened. He had never met someone so ruthless before.

Qin Wentian merely glanced at him coldly without saying anything. This was the worst situation that would occur.

Before he came, Qin Wentian had already made many plans. He had many immortal treasures from the experts of the War Immortal Palace on him and he should be able to threaten and control Jiang Kuang’s life if he moved fast enough. If those from the Jiang Clan didn’t want to release Qin Qing, he would do what he did, directly aiming for the kill.

“Qin Qing, come over.” Qin Wentian walked towards her as he spoke.

Qin Qing finally recovered from her daze. She directly boarded Qin Wentian’s shuttle, but at this moment the immortals of the Jiang Clan all stepped forth. “Sir, please release the young master, and you can go your way after that.”

“Bzzz!” The immortal shuttle directly arced through the skies, speeding towards a direction. His demon sword was still embedded inside Jiang Kuang’s body, constantly sapping away at his life force amidst the screams of agony from Jiang Kuang. None of those present dared to stop Qin Wentian, they merely watched on as the shuttle shot past them.

“Pursue him!” The experts of the Jiang Clan chased after, yet they only saw Qin Wentian taking out a spatial-type treasure scroll. Terrifying spatial fluctuations rocked the area and with a toss of his hand, accompanied by a shriek of pain, Jiang Kuang was directly tossed towards the experts of the Jiang Clan.

“Bzz!” The spatial transference scroll activated as Qin Wentian and Qin Qing vanished completely. At the same instant, immortal might suddenly radiated from Jiang Kuang as a terrifying projection formed by a strand of protective immortal sense manifested. The immortal’s silhouette formed was none other than from the immortal sense left behind by Jiang Kuang’s father. Earlier when Qin Wentian stabbed the sword in Jiang Kuang, it was already too late when Jiang Kuang’s father discovered it. Hence, he chose not to manifest via the immortal sense at that moment but rather, chose to wait for a better opportunity instead.

However, it was as though Qin Wentian had long anticipated his presence!

Chapter 763: Order of Arrest

 

Qin Wentian did indeed discover that strand of immortal sense. The instant his demon sword stabbed into Jiang Kuang, he had already sensed the existence of it.

He knew that immortal-foundation experts would definitely leave behind a protective strand of immortal sense on their descendants. Bai Wuya did so before, as did Zhao Yuyan’s master. How could Qin Wentian not be aware of this?

Hence, he made a prompt decision and left Jiang Kuang behind, leaving straight away.

“Jiang Kuang,” That faint silhouette manifested by the immortal sense embraced Jiang Kuang. At this moment, the life force of Jiang Kuang waned, and was dangerously low. His inner organs were all damaged, and even his heart was almost destroyed. The last strike Qin Wentian unleashed before he departed was out to claim Jiang Kuang’s life. His method was ruthless and didn’t intend to show any mercy.

However, Jiang Kuang didn’t die, he hovered between life and death with a wisp of vitality left. If it wasn’t for his father’s immortal sense protecting his heart, this wisp of vitality would have already dissipated.

But even so, Jiang Kuang would definitely become a crippled if he managed to survive. There was no way he would ever recover.

This sudden scene stunned everyone present, including Xie Shi and Xie Yu. At this moment, Xie Yu only felt his entire body shivering from a chill in his heart as he perspired cold sweat.

Decisive and ruthless, Jiang Kuang was in a position of absolute advantage with immortal-foundation experts nearby. They all initially thought that as long as Jiang Kuang didn’t agree, it was basically impossible for Qin Wentian to bring his target away. In fact, Qin Wentian wouldn’t even be able to leave this place. But the reality has proven that everyone here underestimated Qin Wentian’s trump cards as well as his ruthlessness and decisiveness. In order to bring a young girl away, he actually even dared to kill Jiang Kuang of the Jiang Clan.

During that moment, his sword pierced into Jiang Kuang and could reap away his life at any moment. Who would dare to block Qin Wentian’s path?

Even the immortal sense of Jiang Kuang’s father dared not to manifest; because if he did so, Jiang Kuang would die for sure. This madness actually gave Qin Wentian an opportunity to bring his sister away instead.

“This is simply crazy.” Han Luo of the commander garrison felt his heart trembling. Too damn crazy, earlier if there was the slightest mistake, Qin Wentian would definitely be buried here today. Was it worth it to take such a risk just for a woman?

There weren’t many people who had such outstanding talent like Qin Wentian. Able to fight against fifth-level ascendants while merely at the second level and what’s more, it was even Jiang Kuang who first took out an immortal-ranked weapon.

As for Zhao Yuyan, her entire body was shivering as she stared at Jiang Kuang who is on the verge of death. Her countenance turned pale. It was Qin Wentian again who destroyed her chance. But why would he dare to even kill Jiang Kuang? How could he be so audacious?

“If he’s alive, I want to see his person, and if he’s dead, I want to see his corpse.” Jiang Kuang’s father icily spoke, causing the guards nearby who were in a dazed state to instantly awaken. Jiang Kuang’s father then continued, “Immediately send the entire forces of this city to pursue him.”

The eyes of the supreme elder from the Golden Armor Sect flashed with sharpness. What a crazy fellow. What he didn’t understand was that it was clear Qin Wentian obviously had a great power behind his back but why did he still wanted to take the risk to kill Jiang Kuang? Or could it be that the major power Qin Wentian belonged to didn’t allow the members of their sect to use their name?

Maybe only this would be the only explanation. As expected of a disciple nurtured by a true expert, he was only at the second level of Celestial Phenomenon but the attacking methods he had at his disposal even made him watched on in awe. If it was himself in Qin Wentian’s position, he would never chose to do this. Most probability everyone present all had the same thought, nobody dared to even imagine themselves doing this. Yet, Qin Wentian had already done so.

Qin Wentian did this because he had no choice. No matter what, he had to rescue Qin Qing. This was why he appeared in such a domineering fashion and acted thus to create an illusion that he had a powerful background, wanting to make the Jiang Clan release Qin Qing out of trepidation.

To the Jiang Clan and Jiang Kuang, Qin Qing was someone that has no importance. It wouldn’t affect them even if they released her.

As long as Jiang Kuang released her, Qin Wentian would immediately depart. But it turned out that Jiang Kuang wasn’t willing to and hence, he had no choice but to act as he did.

Also, given his strength, in the face of so many experts present at the City Lord Manor, it would only lead to his death if he forcibly fought all of them head on. Hence, he could only improvise and wait for an opportunity, abducting Jiang Kuang to save Qin Qing.

Naturally to accomplish all this still rested on the fact that back then in the Royal Sacred Region, he received many immortal-ranked treasures from the interspatial rings of the immortals from the War Immortal Palace. For example that armor of light which blocked Jiang Kuang’s immortal lance was a one-time usage immortal-ranked treasure that was exceedingly valuable. But to save Qin Qing, he had no choice but to utilize that.

As for the teleportation scroll, it naturally wasn’t created by him. It was also an immortal-ranked treasure that could send the user about tens of thousands of miles away from the original location.

Qin Wentian and Qin Qing directly appeared at a random location in the Worryfree City. Intense spatial fluctuations rumbled the area and Qin Qing almost lost her footing. Qin Wentian steadied her and took out his immortal shuttle as they instantly shot through the air. He didn’t even dare to waste a moment.

Even though he used the teleportation treasure, such a distance was nothing to immortal experts. He had to use the shortest amount of time to leave the Worryfree City.

The shuttle he was on was a speed-type immortal-ranked treasure. Qin Qing was carried by Qin Wentian, and at this moment, her beautiful eyes regarded Qin Wentian as she felt a warmth in her heart. However, she didn’t mention any words of thanks, she understood there was no need to. But even so, never in her wildest dreams would she have imagined that Qin Wentian would do such a crazy thing for the sake of rescuing her.

“Big bro Qin, grandpa and Qin Feng…” Qin Qing mumbled.

“Don’t worry, before I came I already sent them away. The Qin Clan had dispersed as well.” Qin Wentian replied. Since he had already made the decision to storm the City Lord Manor, there was no way he would be so careless not to settle any loose ends before he did so.

Qin Qing’s worries melted away when she heard Qin Wentian’s words. Above the air, clouds were everywhere. The shuttle moved with lightning speed and directly left the Worryfree City, soaring far away.

He killed Jiang Kuang of the Jiang Clan, and he must definitely flee far away. It wouldn’t even be safe as long as he was within a ten thousand miles radius at the exterior of the Worryfree City. He had to flee even further.

Given how vast the immortal realms were, how could it be so easy for the Jiang Clan to find him?

Jiang Kuang’s death caused a tsunami-level commotion in the Worryfree City. The City Lord searched throughout the city showing no restraint, causing huge disturbances as the atmosphere was doused with panic.

The people of the Worryfree City had also heard the rumors. The Jiang Clan that arrived at their Worryfree City in such an overwhelming manner, their young master Jiang Kuang was actually killed on the day of the banquet. As to whether he actually died or not, nobody knew. The news regarding that was locked down completely. But it was evident that the Jiang Clan was truly enraged as the City Lord Manor was under great pressure.

In addition, the king of the country where the Worryfree City was located also personally came. This country was named the Jiangling country and had eighty-one cities within it. The king of a country could be considered the dukes and marquis of a prefecture. Now that a young master of the Jiang Clan, a power at the peak of the Cloud Prefecture died in a city under his jurisdiction, how could the king of the Jiangling Country feel at ease? He immediately worked closely with the Jiang Clan, sending out notices to capture Qin Wentian. Very swiftly, the order for arrest of Qin Wentian was circulated around the entire Jiangling Country.

However, to Qin Wentian, he had no idea about all of this.

In a location very far away from the Worryfree City, there was a mountain range. On a particular mountain peak, there were a few simple huts and their surroundings were filled with greenery and ancient looking trees, adorned with an abundance of flora.

On the edge of the mountain cliff, there were three silhouettes currently there. One of them was practicing his fist techniques, and this person was none other than Qin Feng. Qin Wentian was also there. He is currently sitting cross-legged, deeply immersed in his cultivation.

Other than them, there was also a young girl sitting a distance away, quietly staring at them. This person was naturally Qin Qing.

“Through this month, Qin Feng’s improvement is so fast. He’s already ready to barge into the ninth level of Yuanfu and had already comprehended his Mandate. Big brother Qin’s understanding towards Mandates is truly profound, no wonder he is so powerful.” Qin Qing felt joy in her heart when she noted Qin Feng’s improvement. How good would it be if big brother Qin would be able to remain beside them forever. In that case, he could continue to guide Qin Feng and she would be able to cook stuff for him to eat.

“Qin Qing, why are you in a daze?” Qin Mu walked over and sat down beside Qin Qing.

“I’m thinking how good would it be if big brother Qin could stay here forever. We are truly blessed to have met someone like him.” Qin Qing cupped her hands around her head as she smiled.

“Yes, we truly are blessed.” Qin Mu nodded in agreement. If there was no Qin Wentian, this family of their would surely be finished.

“However, although Qin Feng is the disciple of your big brother Qin, separation is something inevitable. At the time of his departure, don’t be too saddened by it. Your big brother Qin still has his own future that he needs to pursue. At that time, we will roam the immortal realms, going as far as possible, let’s see if we are able to walk out of this country, or even walk out of the boundlessly vast Cloud Prefecture.” Qin Mu spoke to Qin Qing, his words causing her expression to dim.

Oh yeah, big brother Qin still had his own path he had to walk. How could he continue to hang around with them? He has already done more than enough for their sake and even risked so much just to rescue her.

“Mhm.” Qin Qing nodded.

At this moment, a hint of aura fluctuation emanated from Qin Wentian who was sitting on the edge of a mountain cliff. It seemed as though at this moment, Qin Wentian was currently in a marvelous state.

Qin Mu’s eyes flashed sharply, staring at Qin Wentian. He only saw resplendent astral light circulating around Qin Wentian as an abstruse and profound mysterious force gushed forth from him to all directions. There seemed to be several forms of energy mixed within and felt extremely mystical.

“Your big brother Qin’s cultivation base seemed to have undergone a breakthrough, he looks to have stepped into the third level of Celestial Phenomenon.” Qin Mu murmured. At this moment, Qin Wentian drew in a deep breath, appearing like he wanted to absorb the spiritual qi of heaven and earth within his body. His eyes slowly opened as a divine glow flickered within, feeling extremely marvelous.

“Master, you’ve awaken!” Qin Feng ran over when he saw Qin Wentian stand up. After which, he consulted with Qin Wentian on many topics of cultivation which was troubling him. Qin Wentian explained and guided him through the questions one by one, not giving the full answers as he made it a point for Qin Feng to think through and reflect on the guidance he received to figure things out on his own. After that, he left Qin Feng to cultivate by himself and walked towards Qin Mu as he smiled, “Old sir, what are your plans in the future?”

“Roaming the immortal realms I guess, we can never go back to the Worryfree City now. I will try my best to bring them out of this country, but I have no idea the distance we must travel.” Qin Mu smiled.

“Mhm, this is a good idea. But Qin Feng and Qin Qing are both still so young, it might be quite troublesome for you to take care of them in the future.” Qin Wentian stated in concern.

“You are leaving now?” Qin Mu started.

“It’s about time I leave, I can’t keep staying in the mountains anyway.” Qin Wentian smiled.

“Master!” Qin Feng ran over. Qin Qing cast a glance at Qin Wentian as she lowered her head. However, Qin Mu was calm and unflustered. He patted Qin Wentian on his shoulder and spoke, “I see. Let my grandchildren and I drink a few cups with you and let this be counted as our method of sending you on your way.”

“Right.” Qin Wentian nodded. The four of them sat together, retrieved the wine cups and started to drink just like this. Even Qin Qing that lass joined in as well, none of the four continued on the topic of Qin Wentian’s departure and they merely chatted as they enjoyed their time together.

Time flowed by, even the sun had set. Qin Feng and Qin Qing this pair of siblings had already fallen asleep on the grassy ground. Qin Wentian stared at the sleeping pair as he smiled. After that, he nodded to Qin Mu before his silhouette flickered as he vanished underneath the moonlight.

But at the moment when Qin Wentian truly left, Qin Feng and Qin Qing who were quietly pretending to be asleep finally could control their emotions no longer. Sparkling tears could be seen from the corner of their eye lids!

Chapter 764: Main City of the Jiangling Country

 

Worryfree City could already be considered very vast in terms of area, let alone the entire Jiangling Country. Only the word boundlessly vast would be able to describe it and it was unknown how many powers existed within it.

As for the Cloud Prefecture, it was so large that it was even difficult for immortal-foundation experts to want to walk out of it. One could very well imagine how vast that was.

In a location of wilderness somewhere in the Jiangling Country, there was a young man mounted on a demonic beast, soaring through the air at a casual speed. This young man had his eyes closed and was in a cross-legged position, cultivating atop the back of the demonic beast.

As for this demonic beast, it was pure white in color. It looked extremely furry and had a very adorable demeanor.

“Yawn, this is so tiring~”

A human voice issued from the mouth of this demonic beast as it stretched its paws to scratch its back, constituting a very comical sight.

Qin Wentian rolled his eyes and directly used some strength to rap Little Rascal on its head, “You rascal… Before this you slept till the end of the heavens and earth and you still have the gall to say that you are tired now?! I even needed to use an immortal-ranked treasure to drag you along as I flew.”

“It’s precisely because I slept too long that’s why I’m still tired.” A bout of sleep for Little Rascal lasted over a hundred days, and it finally woke up in the past few days. Right now, his conversational skills were much smoother than before. Although there were still hints of childishness in its voice, it could at least convey what it wanted to say with a single breath.

“Also, in the future please stop calling me Little Rascal. This name is simply too trashy for my taste.” Little Rascal inclined its head and whined.

“Then what do you want me to call you?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Let this baobao* think about it. How do you feel about ‘Primordial Beast Emperor?’” Little Rascal’s eyes brightened.

“Scram.” Qin Wentian aimed a slap over. This Little Rascal wanted to term itself as the primordial beast emperor?

“Ai, this baobao has already awakened my inherited memories, I am truly a descendant of the Primordial Beast Emperor, how can you treat me like this?” Little Rascal drew in a deep breath and stared at the skies, exuding a sense of desolation like that of a mythological beast being treated like a common sheep.

“This sleep of yours has really granted you quite a bit of comprehension, but sadly it’s all wasted on elevating your boasting abilities.” Qin Wentian continued to roll his eyes.

“This baobao can’t be bothered to argue with you, arghhh I’m so tired…” Little Rascal’s eyes were about to close but right at this moment, it noticed quite a number of silhouettes flying over their way. One among those silhouettes was a beautiful woman clad in revealing attire. Her snowy white shoulders were delicate and sexy, and her cleavage was faintly discernible every time her chest heaved.

“So beautiful!” Little Rascal’s sleepiness instantly faded away as it instantly dashed over with Qin Wentian on its back. When he neared, it transformed back to its original small size and leapt right into the direction where the bosom of the woman was located.

Qin Wentian suddenly had an impulse to cough blood, he had no time to react and he only saw Little Rascal transforming into a streak of white light that landed within the woman’s bosom.

“Sister you are so beautiful!” Little Rascal’s baby voice rang out. Just when the woman was about to get angry, her anger melted upon hearing that adorable baby voice. A smile appeared on her face as she hugged Little Rascal closer into her chest, “What a cute little demonic beast.”

“That’s me alright, this baobao is a singular and unique demonic beast, the only one of my kind underneath the heavens.” Little Rascal’s paws got increasingly naughtier as it pawed the woman’s breasts. Qin Wentian who was watching by the side felt black lines appearing on his face. This vile beast…

He felt especially awkward when the male companions around the woman cast their cold gazes over to him. Qin Wentian felt as though he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He would definitely be framed to death by this little rascal in the future. This long sleep has made it even more lecherous than before.

“Mhm?” At this moment, one of the men stiffened for an instant when he stared at Qin Wentian. A light flickered in his eyes as he came closer and asked, “Sir, may we inquire where you are from and where are you planning to go?”

“Just a drifter with no purpose in mind.” Qin Wentian laughed carefreely. Although his eyes contained hints of a smile, his heart was filled with caution. He naturally had noticed the flickering light as well as the stiffened expression of that man earlier.

“Roaming alone in the vast immortal realms is very dangerous. We are all from one sect and are currently preparing to head towards the Driftsnow City of the Jiangling Country. How about joining us as we travel together? At the very least, we can take care of each other.” That young man smiled, as though he was filled with good intentions regarding Qin Wentian.

“Sure, sure.” Qin Wentian initially wanted to reject but who would have thought that Little Rascal beat him to it and replied first, causing Qin Wentian to glare harshly at that little fellow.

At this moment, the woman turned her gaze over and smiled, “I’m called Leng Yi. How about we travel together?”

“Just promise this beautiful sister!” Little Rascal egged Qin Wentian on. Qin Wentian could only helplessly nod his head, “Okay fine, why are you guys heading over to the Driftsnow City?”

“Doesn’t sir know?” Leng Yi curiously stared at Qin Wentian as she smiled. “There’s an immortal spirit manifesting itself in the Driftsnow City. Just some time ago, experts from all over the Cloud Prefecture are all rushing over to the Driftsnow City. Maybe Sir has always been roaming the wilderness and had little contact with others, hence you did not know of this news.”

“That’s true, I’ve been cultivating out in the wilderness for quite some time before this.” Qin Wentian nodded. “However, what do you mean that an immortal spirit is manifesting itself?”

“You would know once you arrived there. This is a major event of the Cloud Prefecture and it’s especially important to divine inscriptionists of master weaponsmiths. Because of this matter, the Jiang Clan even dispatched a team to the Driftsnow City earlier to study the situation. However, there’s an unexpected accident which occurred when they passed by the Worryfree City. I wonder have you heard of that?” Leng Yi smiled as she looked at Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian’s heart fluttered. He didn’t expect that was the reason the Jiang Clan would pass by the Worryfree City, resulting in a storm of commotion because of this major event. But since the Jiang Clan would be heading there, it meant that the Driftsnow City would be quite dangerous to him.

“No. I haven’t heard anything about it.” Qin Wentian shook his head.

“Don’t worry about it, let’s travel together then?” Leng Yi laughed.

Qin Wentian glanced at Little Rascal before resignedly nodding his head, “Might as well.”

“I still don’t know what sir’s name is?” Leng Yi flashed a radiant smile. She stepped towards Qin Wentian as her fragrance drifted over. Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed with a strange light before he indifferently stated, “Tianwen.”

“So it’s brother Tianwen. The journey to the Driftsnow City is very far and perilous, being able to become companions on the road could also be considered fate. Let’s set out immediately.” Leng Yi smiled as she moved ahead. Her male companions exchanged glances before they too, set off after her. Qin Wentian had no fluctuations to his expression and followed after.

The Worryfree City could be considered located at a very remote area of the Jiangling Country. While the Driftsnow City was one of the three largest main cities of the Cloud Prefecture and belonged to the core of the prefecture. Naturally, experts there were as common as the clouds.

Just the journey there alone needed them to travel for several days and finally, in the horizons several thousand miles away, they could faintly see the outline of the Driftsnow City in the distance.

At this moment, Qin Wentian stood at a location a few thousand miles outside the Driftsnow City. This place was akin to a small city, used by a waypoint for travellers. However, this small city located outside the Driftsnow City could only be an adornment to accentuate the majesticness of the Driftsnow City. It was like comparing a hut and an exquisite villa, there was no need to compare at all.

From afar, a city so tall that it seemed to touch the heavens was located there. The walls of the city was ten thousand meters tall and there were a total of eighteen divine weapons embedded atop the walls, their aura of sharpness radiating outwards, creating an extremely terrifying atmosphere.

“Although the Worryfree City has immortal-ranked powers within, it’s only a very small city at a remote region of the Cloud Prefecture. This Driftsnow City before us is one of the three largest cities of the Jiangling Country, and it could be said that it was a main city. The size and aura of it naturally dwarfed the Worryfree City by over tens or hundreds of times.” Qin Wentian silently mused.

Just the size of this city could be comparable to a particle world. No wonder it was worthy of the term ‘main city.’

“Brother Tianwen, we will soon arrive.” Leng Yi at the side walked up and stood beside Qin Wentian. Staring at that unending streams of people in the air and ground heading towards the same location, she gave a charming smile, “Look, all these people are extraordinary. There are even major powers from the Cloud Prefecture rushing over here.”

“Is the legend of the Driftsnow City true?” Qin Wentian mumbled. Through these few days, he gradually learned about the legend of the Driftsnow City. This legend was passed down from ancient times, and right now, there were glimmers that this legend could become reality hence it attracted countless experts from major powers including the powerful sacred ground of the Cloud Prefecture, the Jiang Clan.

“How can something that can create such an uproar be false? Those experts of the Cloud Prefecture are no fools.” Leng Yi smiled. “Let’s go and find an inn to enjoy some good food before we continue on our way, heading towards the Driftsnow City.”

“Sure.” Qin Wentian nodded. A streak of white light flashed by, as Little Rascal jumped back onto his shoulder and laid there. Upon staring at the city, it spoke in its baby voice, “This city is so tall, and baobao can feel an energy awakening.”

“Truly?” Leng Yi giggled as she stared at Little Rascal, feeling tickled by its words.

“What this baobao says is naturally real!” Little Rascal recalcitrantly stated.

“Fine, I believe you.” Leng Yi nodded before descending downwards. However, she discovered that Qin Wentian remained standing at his original location and couldn’t help but to turn her head as she stated, “Tianwen, let’s go.”

“It’s fine. Since we already arrived at the Driftsnow City, let’s split.” Qin Wentian emotionlessly added. After which, he took Little Rascal and head off in another direction, speedily rushing towards the Driftsnow City. This scene caused Leng Yi’s brows to furrow as a cold light flickered within the depths of her eyes.

“Hold up.” At this moment, Leng Yi spoke. Her voice no longer had gentleness and warmth and there was only coldness.

Qin Wentian turned his gaze over, staring at Leng Yi, “Is there something the matter?”

“Your name isn’t Tianwen, and should be Qin Wentian right?” Leng Yi flexed her willowy waist and walked towards Qin Wentian, the smile in her eyes turning into cruel amusement.

“Why do you know who I am?” Qin Wentian asked in a low voice.

“The entire Jiangling Country has an order for your arrest, how can I not know?” Leng Yi smiled. After which she stared at Little Rascal, “This little bastard even took advantage of this noble lady, does it think that I have no idea what it was trying to do?”

Little Rascal’s gaze flickered. He stared at Leng Yi and spoke, “This baobao is so angry. This ugly woman is an evil thing!”

“Little bastard, do you want me to stew you or braise you in a pot?” Leng Yi snickered. Her male companions stepped forth at the same moment, arriving without being summoned, tightly surrounding Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian’s gaze swept over. He already knew that this woman had a motive right at the start when they first encountered her and always had his guard up around her. To think that this was caused by the order of arrest that was announced throughout the Jiangling Country. Seems like he needed to change his identity before he can enter the Driftsnow City!

Translation Notes:

宝宝 Baobao (Little Rascal is referring to itself as ‘Treasure Treasure/Darling” or Lil Treasure).

Chapter 765: Resonance of Divine Weapons

 

Qin Wentian turned his gaze onto Leng Yi as he calmly spoke, “Make way.”

“On the way here, I tried my best to lure you to the Driftsnow City. Now you want to leave as soon as you arrive? Seems like your alertness is truly excellent but do you think it’s possible for you to leave?” Numerous gigantic flower petals appeared behind Leng Yi, exuding a unique fragrance, causing one to feel a bout of drowsiness as though they were about to fall asleep any second.

“What benefits are there if you capture me?” Qin Wentian asked.

“The price on your head is extremely high. No matter if you are captured alive or dead, the bounty hunter will be able to exchange you for three immortal-ranked weapons.” Leng Yi spoke. Qin Wentian narrowed his eyes as cold light flickered within. How rich were the rewards offered? To think that the Jiangling Country was willing to put up such a high price on his head. This should be because the Jiang Clan was a peak power in the Cloud Prefecture despite the fact that he had no prior grudge with the Jiangling Country.

In the eyes of the Jiangling King, he might as well capture Qin Wentian to please the Jiang Clan.

“Do it quicker and directly kill him, we will bring his corpse back. This place is too conspicuous for my liking. When we have collected the bounty, everything would be fine then.” A young man coldly spoke as a fearsome saber glow surrounded him. Even his eyes were like icy sabers emanating a cold silvery light.

“Do it.” Leng Yi nodded. Her companions stepped closer, tightening the circle. Evidently, they didn’t wished to attract too much attention. This location was very close to the Driftsnow City, they were worried that there would be others who recognized Qin Wentian. And the moment a powerful expert appeared, even if they managed to kill Qin Wentian, his corpse wouldn’t belong to them.

Hence, they had to kill Qin Wentian before any commotion is caused. Leng Yi initially still planned to lure Qin Wentian to the City Lord Manor of the Driftsnow City but sadly, Qin Wentian’s vigilance was too high and wanted to split up with them. In that case, they had no choice but to act.

“Don’t tell me that the order of arrest didn’t include more details? With your little bit of strength, are you all courting death?” Qin Wentian swept his gaze over to everyone as the aura of a third-level Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant gushed forth. His constellation flashed as a sword qi tempest instantly manifested with his Sword Slaughter Constellation being unleashed, enveloping this entire space. That boundless, terrifying sword might had Qin Wentian at the center, causing those who were surrounding him to feel fear and trepidation in their hearts.

“Defend first before we attack.” Leng Yi commanded. She indeed had no idea of Qin Wentian’s actual strength. She only heard that Qin Wentian had snuck in an attack on a young master of the Jiang Clan, but she didn’t know the exact details of the situation. But in any case, how could the Jiang Clan release info that there were even immortal-ranked experts present when Qin Wentian attacked Jiang Kuang? Wouldn’t that be smacking their own faces?

The attackers all released their own constellation but at this moment, Qin Wentian’s Sword Slaughter Constellation exuded boundless sword light as numerous incarnations of him appeared. Their palms shimmered with resplendent sword-type runic lights, blasting out in all directions, launching an attack towards his attackers.

Leng Yi was naturally one of his targets. Upon seeing that overwhelming suppressive sword might, her countenance drastically changed as she explosively retreated. Was this really the strength of a third-level ascendant? How could he erupt forth with such power?

The Star-Seizing palm imprints grew increasingly larger as they shot out and neared. Leng Yi screamed for mercy, “Brother Qin, please show mercy!”

However, how could Qin Wentian be bothered about her? That terrifying palm strike continued on, smashing upon Leng Yi’s body, directly crushing her into paste. There was no hesitation on his part at all. This woman was too scheming and had a venomous heart. How would he ever show mercy?

Not only for Leng Yi. At this instant, all those attackers were encountering tyrannical suppression. Rumbling explosive sounds rang out, the cultivation bases of these people were at the second to fifth level of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm. Sadly, there were no exceptions, they were all blasted to death by Qin Wentian’s palm strikes.

After absorbing and refining the Sky Demon Oracle Bone through the Body Refinement Art, Qin Wentian’s physique grew stronger and stronger, resembling a true fiendgod. Just his bodily defense alone was extremely terrifying, and in addition to that, his innate techniques like the Fiendgod Heavenly Suppression Art as well as other tyrannical methods, integrating the fusion of his true intents, and his depth of comprehension towards innate techniques, his combat prowess had risen to a terrifying level despite him only being at the third level of Celestial Phenomenon. At the very least, he could kill ordinary fifth-level ascendants with a single smack of his palms. Just like what was happening now.

The commotion instantly attracted the attention of others below. These people inclined their heads, staring at the young man in the air as they silently mused what terrifying combat prowess this young man had. It was a complete annihilation, directly eradicating those surrounding him with a single strike.

However, they only saw Qin Wentian immediately leaving, heading off in the direction of the Driftsnow City.

He already felt that Leng Yi was setting him up for something before this, it was only he didn’t know about the order of arrest issued for him. As to why he didn’t mind traveling together with Leng Yi, it was because given his strength, there was basically no need for him to worry. If Leng Yi truly wanted to act against him, he would retaliate swiftly with no hesitation, even if he had to kill her.

…

The Driftsnow City was one of the three great main cities of the Jiangling Country. Right now, it’s status could only be considered second or third because this city, is known to be a weaponized city. Many years ago, the Driftsnow City was prosperous and extremely famous. Its name wasn’t merely contained within a country but was circulated around an entire prefecture. However, because of the passing of time, the immortal spirit of the Driftsnow City itself gradually turned silent and disappeared. This made the city slowly edged out of the vision of the Cloud Prefecture but no matter what, it could still be considered one of the most prosperous locations within the Jiangling Country.

Qin Wentian stood at the bottom of the stairway leading up to the city as he lifted his head to survey it. This vast ancient city was constructed above sea level, and the ten thousand-meter walls made an individual seem small and inconsequential when they stood underneath them. Each of the eighteen divine weapons on the city walls were incomparably gigantic in stature, there was a saber, spear, sword, halberd… all embedded right at the top of the walls, radiating an imposing aura filled with the vicissitudes of time.

The demon sword strapped on Qin Wentian’s back hummed softly, vibrating as though it was resonating with something. Streams of sharp qi bore down on Qin Wentian, or more accurately, they were all pressing down onto the demon sword on his back. This caused Qin Wentian’s eyes to flash as he turned his attention to the eighteen divine weapons.

However, at this moment, the resonance from the demon sword turned quiet as though nothing out of the ordinary had ever happened. Yet, the eighteen divine weapons embedded at the top of the walls suddenly radiated a wall of light. At this instant, on top of the city wall, a boundless divine glow flashed, streaking upwards to the skies.

Outside the Driftsnow City, countless silhouettes halted their steps as their gazes were all locked upon the eighteen divine weapons on the city walls. Their eyes flashed with light as their gazes turned sharp. They all silently mused, “The eighteen divine weapons had another reaction again? Seems like the legend of the Driftsnow City is definitely real.”

“Now the wind and clouds are flooding the Driftsnow City, I wonder how many experts from major powers in the Cloud Prefecture would show up because of that legend. If that legend is true and one could use an entire city as a divine weapon, how terrifying is this concept?” Someone mused.

And at this moment, a casual looking young man with a sword strapped behind his back, stepped on the stairs that led upwards to the Driftsnow City. As the city gates opened, he entered the city itself.

The instant Qin Wentian entered, he immediately sensed a majestic and archaic air. The foundations of this city were countless times deeper compared to the Worryfree City and the buildings here were all made from unique and special, top-graded materials. Attacks from ordinary experts would definitely be unable to damage it.

After all within such a large city, there would definitely be occasional conflicts within. If the residents want to have a peaceful life, they naturally would fortify their homes to protect against attacks from cultivators.

Hence, the residences here were all constructed in a manner similar to divine weapons, they were incredibly tough and some even had the power to attack. These were all constructed by divine inscriptionists and usually the stronger someone was, the more fortified their residence would be.

Slowly moving on the streets of the Driftsnow City, countless experts were all around him. He could clearly sense the difference of the people here and the Worryfree City. There were many who were lazy and languid over there but here, experts were all exuding their brilliance to dazzle people.

In the air, a row of experts soared past, and there were quite a few among them who had a corona of immortal light. This made the crowd sighed in admiration, “Immortal glow, those must be immortal-foundation ranked experts.”

“They seemed to be experts from the War Immortal Palace, they had even sent immortals over this time.” The people on the streets whispered, causing Qin Wentian’s heart to be stirred slightly. Back then the power the old Sacred Emperor of the Sacred Royal Region had joined was precisely the War Immortal Palace. It should be considered quite a large power in the Jiangling Country. He didn’t expect that he would encounter them here.

However, the experts of the War Immortal Palace didn’t know who Qin Wentian was. Even if they knew, Qin Wentian right now had already changed his features. There was no way there would be anyone that can recognize him.

Qin Wentian continued his way forward, and would occasionally see experts with coronas of immortal light around them. This indicated that these people were immortals.

“Truly the experts here are as common as the clouds. In addition, the word out in the streets is that there are many major powers who would be sending their forces over as well.” Qin Wentian stepped into the depths of the Driftsnow City and walked for quite a bit of time before coming across a tea house. Over here, there were many enjoying their tea, and one among them was clearly radiating immortal light. The others were all looking at that person with respect and reverence on their faces!
