At this moment, Qin Wentian was enjoying delicacies in a pavilion. He chatted leisurely with his friends and exuded an extremely carefree air like nothing has ever happened.
Jin Zhi stood at the side and served them. Qin Wentian didn’t do anything to her, only telling her to serve tea and pour wine at the side. Before this, she refused to comply but Qin Wentian told her that if she didn’t want to obey or tried to escape, he would directly cripple her cultivation base. Just with that single sentence, Jin Zhi was so frightened that she didn’t dare to try anything funny and could only honestly obey his orders. However, her gaze when staring at them was extremely cold, like she was silently cursing them. She wanted to see how long Qin Wentian could enjoy life for.
“Senior brother, I feel extremely frustrated every time I see this woman. Why do you want to keep her here? Might as well cripple her cultivation directly.” Jun Mengchen coldly spoke, staring at Jin Zhi. This was especially so when he saw how venomous Jin Zhi’s gaze was. That truly spoiled the atmosphere and their mood. What sort of character was his senior brother? He had become the ruler of Azure Mystic with the title Heaven Empyrean. He stood high up in the air and had now even became the Qingcheng Realmlord in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. He even led all of them into the ancient battlefield and took on the ancient wills of heavenly deities as their masters.
This woman was just a lover of one of the world overlords from the Dragon Pool Manor. She actually dared to insult and humiliate Qingcheng? To his senior brother’s wives, no one in the world would dare to show any disrespect. How dare this woman do so?
Honestly speaking, right now, the ancient will of heavenly deities still resided in some of their consciousness. Hence, Jun Mengchen didn’t feel too much trepidation or fear although their opponent was supposedly an extremely strong power, the Dragon Pool Manor. Although his cultivation now was slightly lower, so what of it? That was only because of time. A mere Dragon Pool Manor really dared to antagonize them? At most, he would wait a few hundred or a thousand years later before he came back and annihilated them.
Jun Mengchen’s words truly scared Jin Zhi. She could clearly sense the unmasked disgust and loathing Jun Mengchen felt for her. Instantly, the venomous look in her eyes was retracted somewhat, it was as though she was frightened that Qin Wentian would really listen to Jun Mengchen and directly cripple her.
Jun Mengchen grimly watched the change in her expression. Seems like his senior brother was still too kind. He then coldly mocked, “I wonder which world overlord became blind, even wanting a cheap and despicable woman like this, overestimating herself, thinking that she’s someone lofty.”
Ye Zi also sat at the side. When she heard that, her heart trembled as she was filled with shock. She initially thought that Qin Wentian was already domineering enough. Who would have thought that this extremely handsome looking young man named Jun Mengchen would be also so tyrannical. Although his cultivation base was only at the empyrean realm, he had an imposingness to his tone like he didn’t care about this matter that happened today. It was like although the power they had antagonized wasn’t the Dragon Pool Manor. This was simply too crazy. Who were these people exactly? Could they be from some extremely powerful clans and sects?
How would they know that Qin Wentian and the others here had no backgrounds to speak of at all? If one really wanted to talk about backgrounds, they were enough to frighten everyone to death. After all, they had the ancient wills of heavenly deities in their consciousness.
“Sir. What arrogant words.” Some others from another pavilion stared over, smiling at Jun Mengchen’s group. “Earlier, we heard that someone created trouble at the Heavenly Immortal Tower and abducted a serving girl. Right now, many people are rushing to this inn. Most probably, that deed was done by you all, right? How audacious.”
“It wasn’t us creating trouble in the Heaven Immortal Tower, it was just that this serving girl was too impudent yet the Heaven Immortal Tower actually still wants to protect her. Could it be that you all think that the Heaven Immortal Tower’s actions are logical?” Jun Mengchen stared back and spoke.
“We’ve already heard what happened. However, this world isn’t something that logic holds sway over. Strength is everything. From your words, I guess that you guys have no understanding of the Dragon Pool Manor, right?” A person from that pavilion laughed.
“Sir, what do you want to say?” Qin Wentian glanced at the person who spoke as he asked.
“Nothing much. Since we are staying at the same inn, this can also be considered fate. Most probably, you guys came from outside to attend the Convention of the Myriad Realms, right? We are the same as well. However, we reached here earlier than you, and have already been here for a few years. I have a pretty good understanding of the various major powers in Time City. I’m afraid you guys won’t have a good ending after offending the Heaven Immortal Tower but I can point out a path of light for you all to follow. If the owner of this Ten Miles Inn is willing to shield you, there might still be some hope.” That person laughed.
Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. Seems like the owner of the Ten Miles Inn wasn’t a simple character.
“Naturally, did you guys notice that there are plenty of world overlords gathered outside the inn? From what I know, in the manor near the outside courtyard, a major character resides there. This man is a transcendent-level world overlord and everyone views him with respect. You all can pay a visit to him and if you are lucky enough, he might deign to meet with you. Maybe, the Dragon Pool Manor won’t pursue this after that.” That person laughed.
“Thanks for your kind intentions but there’s no need for you to worry about this matter.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke.
“Haha, sure. Just treat it like I spoke too much.” That person smiled. He wanted to see how Qin Wentian would deal with the Dragon Pool Manor.
“Senior brother, there are truly more and more people in the surroundings. They must be here to watch the drama. The news truly spread swiftly indeed. We returned right away after that incident yet the name of the inn we are staying in has already been spread.” Jun Mengchen spoke.
“This place is Time City. This is normal.” Qin Wentian replied. This was the central core region of the Xuan Region, he wouldn’t feel shocked by anything that happened.
Not long after, another group of experts arrived at the inn. After that, they walked towards the pavilions. These people all had outstanding auras and a young man and woman were in the lead. They were none other than the group in the Heaven Immortal Tower earlier. When they arrived here, they directly walked towards Qin Wentian.
“People from the Dragon Pool Manor? They don’t seem like it.” Someone mumbled.
“If they aren’t from the Dragon Pool Manor, they should be disciples or descendants of an extremely strong power seeing that they have so many world overlord followers.” Someone felt that this was getting more and more interesting. The young man and woman in the lead were extremely outstanding. Naturally, the auras from Qin Wentian, Mo Qingcheng, Qing`er, Beiming Youhuang and the others weren’t in anyway inferior as well. It was just that since these two had so many world overlords following them, their status was clearly extraordinary.
Qin Wentian had a look of puzzlement on his face when he saw the young man and woman in the lead walking towards him. Before this in the Heaven Immortal Tower, he knew that this group was in there too but he didn’t pay any attention to them. Now that he was observing closely, he could tell that these people were truly extraordinary. The young woman in the lead had a cultivation base at the empyrean level. Her beauty and strength were both outstanding, and wasn’t someone Jin Zhi could compare to. Also, her aura was very strong. As for that handsome young man beside her, he was a world overlord. That casual smile on his face also radiated a sense of pride that was carved deep in his bones.
The young maiden also surveyed Qin Wentian and his group. She suddenly laughed, she who was originally extremely beautiful, could topple a kingdom completely at this instant. Even Mo Qingcheng, Qing`er and the other beauties here couldn’t help but to admire her. This was purely admiration for her beauty.
“Sir, you have encountered trouble. Not long ago, the Heaven Immortal Tower sent out news that if someone can capture you all back to the Heaven Immortal Tower, they can choose any treasures from the Heaven Immortal Tower save for their ultimate treasures as a reward.” The young maiden smiled. This is the latest news. When many people heard that, their eyes gleamed with a bright light. As expected of a Heaven Immortal Tower, what a heavy reward. Although they didn’t offer their ultimate treasures, there were many powerful treasures in there still which are extremely valuable. Even world overlords would feel their hearts stirred by greed.
Just when everyone thought the Dragon Pool Manor would personally act, they suddenly used this strategy instead. There was simply no need for them to act, they could just use wealth to crush Qin Wentian. This was the power of wealth and cultivation resources. They most probably felt that if they were to act personally, it would be a loss of face to them.
The face they had lost then, naturally had to be recovered.
Naturally, for Jin Zhi’s identity, there would naturally be no one mentioning the fact that she was the girlfriend of one of the world overlords from the Dragon Pool Manor.
“Many thanks for the warning of young miss.” Qin Wentian smiled, conveying his gratitude.
“Are you not worried? This promise by them would surely attract many to act. Right now, there are many experts here to attend the Convention of the Myriad Realms. With the reward being so valuable, even I might feel inclined to act.” That young maiden laughed.
“Indeed. Miss, you are telling me all of this because of what? What do you want to say?” Qin Wentian asked.
“My surname is Donghuang. I wonder how do I address sir?” The maiden asked.
“My surname is Qin, you can refer to me as the Qingcheng Realmlord.” Qin Wentian replied.
“Qingcheng Realmlord, that should be a title, right? Could it be that you are someone who controls a realm in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms?” The maiden asked.
Qin Wentian nodded. These few words exchanged had revealed his identity somewhat but there was nothing for him to hide. In any case, she has already told him her surname.
It was just that this surname was somewhat special. He had recently heard of it and it’s truly from an impressive background. Right now, seeing the demeanor of this woman as well as the number of powerful followers behind her, could it be that…?
“Although the territories of a realm can provide plenty of cultivation resources, it’s ultimately still a side-path. Those who cultivate all seek to attain a higher realm, and to do so, they would have to travel to the core-most locations in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. Qingcheng Realmlord has such outstanding talent and is also so young. How could you be willing to just be the overlord of a realm? If you join us, the troubling matters from the Dragon Pool Manor will be reduced to nothing at all.” The young woman casually spoke, her words tinged with arrogance. It was like she didn’t place the Dragon Pool Manor in any regard at all.
However, no one felt that she was boasting. Many world overlords had looks of contemplation when they heard her surname. Could it be just a coincidence?
“This is recruitment. She is trying to recruit the Qingcheng Realmlord.” The eyes of everyone flashed sharply. Who would have thought that there would be someone admiring the Qingcheng Realmlord so quickly and was willing to help him to resolve this matter.
“The Donghuang surname, what does it refer to?” Qin Wentian asked in a low voice.
“It’s just like what you are thinking.” The young woman calmly spoke. A single sentence caused waves to rise in the hearts of everyone. The people in the surroundings all had changed expressions, even world overlords were shocked. What a climax, the changes of the wind and clouds. Donghuang… they were actually willing to help this young world overlord settle his troubles. If Qin Wentian really agreed, this trouble would be no trouble at all.
“This is our little princess.” The young man beside her suddenly smiled and spoke, causing the trembling of the hearts of the people in the surroundings to become even more intense.
Surnamed Donghuang, little princess. Her identity was as clear as day.
No wonder she exuded such magnificence. To think that she had such a high status. Everyone instantly stood up, including world overlord characters, to show their respect. Someone then spoke, “It’s my fortune to be able to meet the little princess here.”
“Little Princess’s magnificence knows no bounds yet she is still so friendly and approachable.” Another person spoke. At this moment, Jin Zhi also felt her heart trembling. Staring at this beautiful maiden, her eyes flashed with an unmasked admiration. This was a true chosen of the heavens. Compared to her, she was truly extremely insignificant!
