Qin Wentian, Ten Miles Springwind and the others were a little speechless. How presumptuous of this person.
Old Ghost narrowed his eyes, he stared at them, “You guys best speak more politely.”
“What a great temper.” The middle-aged man who spoke swept his glance over to Old Ghost as a cold light flickered in his eyes.
“Although you are my elder, you can directly tell me if you are unhappy about anything. Why would you insult my friends? Such behavior is truly a disgrace to our Cao Clan.” Cao Tian domineeringly replied.
“I am a disgrace to the Cao Clan? Why don’t you talk about yourself instead?” It seems that this man was already used to Cao Tian’s attitude. He coldly continued, “As for I being your elder? I don’t have the honor to be your elder at all.”
Qin Wentian didn’t say anything. He was completely ignorant about the grudges between Cao Tian and his clan and it wasn’t his place to interfere. Both the tones of Cao Tian and the middle-aged man now were filled with unhappiness but as long as they didn’t completely sever their relationships, they were still considered kin.
“Brother Qin, your Big Brother Cao has a lot of bitterness in his heart.” Ten Miles Springwind transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian glanced at him, only to hear Ten Miles Springwind continue explaining, “Do you know why Old Cao fled from his clan and came out to establish his own power?”
Qin Wentian was speechless. Was this actually even a question? He naturally had no idea.
“Because he wanted to evade an arranged marriage.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke. “His Clan arranged a wedding for him and the background of his bride was extremely impressive as well. Both sides wished to be allied through marriage. His clan approved of this, the girl he was to marry had no objections as well because your big brother Cao can still be considered pretty charming. However, the problem lies here. Given Old Cao’s personality, how would he accept an arranged marriage? Although that woman he was supposed to marry can be considered quite beautiful, she was not a supreme beauty. Also, if he married her, it was probably impossible for him to take in concubines in the future, so how can he not escape? Now that he is alone out there, he can have as many beautiful women as he wants, how carefree is that? Old Cao is truly extremely courageous.”
Qin Wentian persperied. He didn’t expect the reason to actually be fleeing from an arranged marriage. This was simply too contrived. Cao Tian’s personality was too hard, no matter what your background is, he didn’t want to marry means he didn’t want to marry. At most, he would simply leave the clan and set up his own power.
The words exchanged by Cao Tian and his clan members had the note of unhappiness, it was clear they parted on bad terms. Both parties then shifted their gazes away. Cao Tian’s clan went to greet the other major powers and chatted with them, as though they were very familiar with each other. They also went to greet the Donghuang Clan.
There were simply too many experts here today. Many of them were overlords of an entire area, those with similar statuses were all grouped together while the weaker world overlords paid respect to them. For powers like the Samsara Temple, Spatial Saint Hall, Donghuang Clan and Cao Clan, they naturally belonged to the peak-tier of powers. Only the three hegemon-level powers were above them.
At this moment among the crowd, another group of experts finally arrived here. This group of people came from the other Regions and the person in the lead was a beautiful young woman. Although she was very young, her cultivation base was already at the world overlord realm. She instantly drew plenty of attention from the crowd. Similarly, her group also consisted of many world overlord experts.
“We finally arrived.” The young woman mumbled.
“Young miss, are you sure that the person you are looking for is among the crowd who is here for the Convention of the Myriad Realms?” An old man beside her asked.
“My instinct tells me so. No worries, even if we cannot find the person, we can just attend the convention this time around.” The young woman softly spoke. This was none other than the young woman who detected something was wrong when the pendant formed a connection with Mo Qingcheng. She brought her group and rushed here and finally arrived now.
“You guys don’t seem familiar, which major power of the Mystic Region do you all belong to?” At this moment, the handsome and extraordinary-looking young man from the Cao Clan of Scarlet Sun Immortal Realms glanced at the young woman as he asked. Given the Cao Clan’s judgement, they naturally could tell that this young woman had an impressive origin. However, they were familiar with the majority of major powers in the Mystic Region and even if they weren’t familiar, they should be able to tell where this group was from. However, they seemed to have never seen these people before.
“The Convention of Myriad Realms held in the Mystic Regions wouldn’t prohibit people from the other Regions attending it, right?” The young woman stared at the young man as she asked.
Upon hearing her words, many people turned their gazes over. This group of people actually came from the other Regions.
“So you guys are valued guests from other Regions. I’m someone from the Cao Clan of the Scarlet Sun Immortal Realms. I wonder where does young miss and your entourage originate from?” The young man gently smiled, causing many people to feel comfortable when they saw him. However, the identity of this young woman was extremely extraordinary. She has naturally seen plenty of talented geniuses from the various major powers before. She merely calmly replied, “Those who came from afar are guests, there’s no need for you to inquire so much.”
The young man started but he soon smiled and nodded his head. “Since this is the case, I won’t disturb miss then.”
At this moment, Qin Wentian was also staring at this young woman. Her aura was extremely outstanding and her beauty was truly supreme, capable of even shaming the moon and flowers. Also, she exuded a sense of nobility and holiness that does not allow anyone to profane her. But not only so, Qin Wentian actually sensed a familiar aura from her. He didn’t know where this sense of familiarity came from but he could clearly feel it in his bones.
The young woman seemed to have sensed something. Her beautiful eyes turned over to Qin Wentian as she frowned. This young man was staring at her with an intensity that she found disrespectful.
“My name is Qin Wentian, may I ask for the name of young miss?” Qin Wentian spoke. He didn’t know why he spoke as well. Earlier, this young woman has just rejected a young world overlord from the Cao Clan yet he chose now to ask the young woman for her name. Most probably, she wouldn’t answer. But even so, the sense of familiarity he was feeling still caused him to ask the question.
“Your surname is Qin?” The young woman frowned. She glanced at the women around Qin Wentian and noted that they were all extremely beautiful. She naturally thought that Qin Wentian also had designs on her and hence, her gaze towards him was somewhat unfriendly. She icily replied, “None of the people surnamed Qin are good characters.”
Qin Wentian’s face was filled with black lines. He was completely speechless. Her response to him was much worse compared to her response to the young world overlord earlier. He was directly cursed at.
However, he truly had no designs on her, he only wanted to know why he would feel a sense of familiarity towards her.
But now, she actually implicated everyone with the surname Qin. What does this mean? Could it be that in the past, there were people surnamed Qin who had offended her before?
There are so many people under the heavens, countless people would share the same surname. The young woman completely scolded everyone with the surname Qin. How much resentment does she actually feel for people with the surname of Qin?
Bitterly smiling while shaking his head, Qin Wentian had nothing more to say.
Below the stairway, more and more experts rushed here. At this moment, another extraordinary group arrived. There were many young world overlords with extraordinary auras. The instant they appeared, many in the crowd immediately focused on them.
The person leading this group was an old man wearing a robe with star designs. His aura was transcendent and his eyes were full of spirit. Many people went to pay their respects, including some realmlords who were extremely powerful individuals in their own right. In addition, Qin Wentian also knew where this group came from.
These people were from a legendary location that was worthy of respect, where the dao was transmitted. They were from the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy.
In the past, he visited the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy for the sake of returning to Azure Mystic and he left soon after that. Now that they saw the people of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy here, Qin Wentian and his group involuntarily walked forward, moving towards the old man in the lead as they bowed, “Qin Wentian, a student of the sacred academy, pays my respect to senior.”
The old man glanced at Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian was young and exuded an extraordinary aura and proclaimed that he was a student from the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy when greeting him. Seems like he truly must have received some benefits from the academy before.
“Where are you from?” The old man asked.
“Junior is from a lower world named the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. I was once a student of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy there, cultivating within and attending the dao lectures.” Qin Wentian politely replied.
“Azure Mystic.” A strange light light appeared in the old man’s eyes. Azure Mystic was considered a special place, unique among the thirty-three heavens. This young man was from Azure Mystic yet he actually has such accomplishments today. It was truly extremely difficult and rare.
The Evergreen Immortal Emperor and the others also came by to pay their respects as they were all considered students of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy as well.
“He is the Qingcheng Realmlord.” Someone spoke out, causing quite a few people to turn to Qin Wentian. The grudge between the Qingcheng Realmlord and Heaven Immortal Tower might not be considered a major incident in Time City but it still generated quite a large deal of commotion. One was a transcendent-level world overlord, everyone initially thought that he would have some impressive background. Nobody expected that he came from the inconspicuous and weak Azure Mystic.
The people of the Dragon Pool Manor also naturally arrived today. They also stared at Qin Wentian. Although they wouldn’t start something with Qin Wentian now at this location, they still had unfriendly looks when they stared at him. This was especially so for Longyuan Haoyu, his gaze was ice-cold.
“Let’s ascend the stairway. The entrance is about to open.” An expert from the Donghuang Clan spoke, causing the gazes of everyone to turn to the stairway. This stairway had the name of the Stairway of Time, it was the only way to head to the Time Realm’s entrance.
Many people nodded their heads respectively. After that, the Donghuang Clan, Cao Clan of the Scarlet Sun Immortal Realms and Samsara Temple, these peak powers were the first to step on the stairway, followed by the famous realmlords. Naturally, the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy also received respect from plenty of people here. Many people gave way for them to proceed first.
The countless experts all began to head up the stairway, towards the ancient palace at the peak that was in the clouds.
Far below, many who came here to spectate had looks of envy in their eyes. Although the number of experts attending the convention here was countless in number, there were even more spectators who came here because they wanted to catch a glimpse of the major characters. These spectators didn’t have the qualifications to attend the convention. Only world overlords and their friends and family were qualified to enter the Time Realm.
At the peak of the stairway, there was a time gate. Many world overlords were outside this gate, guarding the entrance. These people were sent here by the three hegemonic powers.
Although the convention was organized by the three hegemon powers, they wouldn’t directly appear here and would only operate from behind the scenes. Naturally, there would also be junior world overlords from their side that attended.
“Everyone, it has been tough on all of you.” The leader of the guards spoke politely to everyone. He represented the three hegemonic powers and didn’t dare to show any disrespect to the guests.
“The entrance to the Time Realm is now opened.” A person calmly spoke. After that, the crowd nodded as they started to enter the gate, stepping into the Time Realm.
More and more experts poured in, these people were from all locations in the Mystic Region and there were even experts from the other Regions coming here to attend the Convention of the Myraid Realms.
Today, the location where the convention would be held, the entrance to the Time Realm had opened.
Qin Wentian was among the crowd, he and his group of people had finally arrived before the time gate.
“Convention of the Myriad Realms, how fascinating would it be?” Qin Wentian mused in a soft voice. After that, he nodded to the people around him and pulled Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng with him, stepping through the time gate, arriving at the Time Realm!
