The Dragon Pool Manor decided to gamble on this due to a single sentence from Yue Changkong. They planned to kill Qin Wentian in a single strike and directly eliminate him. Although they would face great pressure after that, but Yue Changkong hinted that he would pull some strings and make them into a vassal force of the Ziwei Divine Court. In that case, regardless of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy or Luoshen Clan, both wouldn’t dare to act against the Dragon Pool Manor recklessly for Qin Wentian’s death.
But now, they have failed. The pressure on them had increased exponentially. This maiden from the Luoshen Clan clearly was going to take action against them some time in the future and Qin Wentian’s hatred for them would naturally also intensify. Over at Yue Changkong’s side, they had no idea whether Yue Changkong would appear to support them or not.
The end result of this battle was not what they expected. They couldn’t even kill Qin Wentian like this?
The Dragon Pool Manor Lord glanced at the experts before his eyes and knew that it was impossible for them to do anything more here. He waved his hand, “Let’s leave.”
After speaking, the remaining experts of the Dragon Pool Manor retreated respectively. The assassination mission this time around was a failure.
Qin Wentian’s icy gaze stared at them as they left. They wanted this matter to end here? It was clearly impossible. He would definitely seek revenge for this.
Luoshen Lei’s silhouette flashed and came before Qin Wentian. She had to act like she wasn’t that familiar with him and calmly asked, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. My friend was injured by that arrow and almost lost her life. This arrow that has pierced her, is equivalent to piercing me as well.” Qin Wentian coldly spoke. At the instant that arrow was shot out, everything was already destined. He and the Dragon Pool Manor, only one party would remain in this world. There was no other possibilities.
“The Dragon Pool Manor is just in Time City. They won’t be able to run away.” Cao Tian icily spoke. The Dragon Pool Manor had many businesses under them and was considered a major power of Time City. Through the generations, they have solidified their foundations there. It was like what Cao Tian has said, it was impossible for them to run away.
“I’ll return for now. But I will note down what happened today in my heart.” Qin Wentian spoke. Now that Beiming Youhuang was still injured, he wanted to bring her to a place to rest and aid her in recovery.
“I’ll go with you.” Luoshen Lei spoke lightly. Qin Wentian nodded. He knew that Luoshen Lei was worried that the Dragon Pool Manor might attempt the same thing again.
“We will come along with you too.” Ten Miles Springwind and the others expressed their stances. In the future, they decided to travel together with Qin Wentian to guard against the Dragon Pool Manor. The assassination earlier definitely couldn’t be allowed to happen again. They also didn’t expect that the Dragon Pool Manor would act with so much resolve, wanting to take Qin Wentian’s life.
Was there something hidden behind this?
Qin Wentian and his group left. The nearby spectators excitedly discussed what happened in that earlier battle.
Many world overlords among them were inside Qin Wentian’s heart domain earlier and had entered that state of stillness. If they were Qin Wentian’s enemies, their end result would surely be extremely dire.
“I feel that the Dragon Pool Manor’s actions today are somewhat unintelligent, they are too impulsive and might have offended a future supreme expert.” Some world overlord stated.
“That’s right. This Qingcheng Realmlord is so young and has cultivated for less than a thousand years. He can already be considered a transcendent-level world overlord and is almost on the verge of breaking through to become a hegemonic-level one. In the area of his world heart, he can even stop time. If transcendent-level world overlords fought him, they would also die, right?”
“So now, the Dragon Pool Manor would use even more methods to try and kill the Qingcheng Realmlord, right? They definitely cannot permit the Qingcheng Realmlord to grow stronger or it will be their doomsday.”
“How can it be so easy? With the Luoshen Clan here, as well as his friend Cao Tian supporting him, it is going to be very difficult for the Dragon Pool Manor to try this again.”
Many people were in discussion. For a period of time, the news of this battle circulated widely within the Time Realm. Many people soon learned of what happened and their topics of discussion included the Qingcheng Realmlord alongside with the news of Yue Changkong being accepted by a heavenly deity as a disciple and becoming the son-in-law of the Donghuang Clan.
And because these two supreme characters once fought before, more and more people started to compare them. Before this, although Qin Wentian had defeated Yue Changkong, but after the news of Yue Changkong entering the tutelage of a heavenly deity spread out, everyone felt that Yue Changkong’s future would surely be more radiant than Qin Wentian. They didn’t forget that Yue Changkong had received the Timeking’s inheritance.
But now, many of these people started to waver. Stopping time… The Yue Changkong now wouldn’t be able to accomplish this, right? Even if he had gained the inheritance of the Time King.
It was said that Qin Wentian condensed a time-attributed astral soul to be his eighth one inside the Time Realm. If he had condensed one before then, he might very well be the one to receive the Time King’s inheritance instead of Yue Changkong. After all, his talent seemed to be even more outstanding in comparison.
Right now in the Time Realm, the hottest topics were regarding the two of them. Their supporters seemed equal in number, there were some who resolutely believed that Yue Changkong, the disciple of the Ziwei Divine Court was more outstanding and would become a future Sword Monarch. There were also some who felt that the Qingcheng Realmlord had a boundless future and wouldn’t be inferior to Yue Changkong.
The news of this battle also spread to the residential palace the Donghuang Clan was in. After Yue Changkong learned of the Dragon Pool Manor’s failure, he felt extremely unhappy and silently cursed at what a trash the Dragon Pool Manor is. They couldn’t even do this well? The better Qin Wentian’s performance was, the greater the formless threat he would represent to him. Right now, he could already be sure that the Time King was speaking to Qin Wentian back then. There was no one who suspected him because he passed the Ziwei Divine Court’s test. No one would doubt the judgement of a heavenly deity.
But only he himself understood how he had almost failed that test. Also, if Qin Wentian didn’t die, there would always be a risk that he would be exposed. Only by killing Qin Wentian would he be the only one who knew of this secret. From now on, he could rest assured in his identity as the inheritor of the Time King.
Also, the Dragon Pool Manor actually failed. Qin Wentian also demonstrated great talent in the laws of time and had comprehended time stop. What benefits did he obtain from the Time King exactly?
The more he thought about this, the more angry he felt. Naturally he would pretend to be carefree and easy during normal times. At this moment, he was hugging a beauty in his arms and quietly enjoying a tranquil time. He has already completely subdued Donghuang Ying and the Donghuang Clan. From now onwards, the Donghuang Clan would become his backer. With their support, his position in the Ziwei Divine Court would also be more stable.
“I heard that he killed a hegemonic-level world overlord of the Dragon Pool Manor, and in the area of effect generated by his world heart, he could stop time, making it so that the experts of the Dragon Pool Manor were all unable to resist.” At this moment, the Donghuang Ying in his embrace turned her head. Her beautiful eyes stared at Yue Changkong. There was a faint sense of worry in her heart.
“Since this man was able to defeat me, he naturally has his own outstanding aspects. Being able to win against a hegemonic-level world overlord is nothing strange.” Yue Changkong smiled, appearing as carefree as ever. He then continued, “In any case, since we are together, why are we discussing about others? Right now, I don’t wish to cultivate, I want to ignore everything in the outside world and spend time together with you. There’s no need for worry. I will naturally not let myself fall back and be inferior to others in matters of cultivation.”
Upon hearing his words, Donghuang Ying’s worry also dissipated. Her beautiful eyes revealed a charming smile. Wasn’t the reason why she liked Yue Changkong was because of how outstanding he is? He was forever like this, exuding boundless glory and filled with an intense self-confidence. And now, he was also very much in love with her.
“The words sounds nice, but I wonder if you would still treat me as nicely now as in the future.” Donghuang Ying smiled.
“Naturally.” Yue Changkong nodded. “In addition, when have I ever been someone who only talks the talk?”
“You mean you are not?” Donghuang Ying had a mischievous look on her face.
“Since this is the case, it seems like I have to show off my performance a little.” Yue Changkong smile turned a little lewd. Donghuang Ying instantly blushed and after that, the two of them dove into the covers and enjoyed the pleasures of the flesh.
But who would know what Yue Changkong was thinking now when he was enjoying a beauty? Where were his thoughts at?
…
After that battle in the Time Realm, everything seemed to return to calmness. However, everyone knew that this incident would become the symbolic starting point. Right now, there was most probably a storm brewing silently. It was unknown when the storm would erupt.
During these days, Qin Wentian stayed in his residential palace and didn’t head out. He was busy with helping Beiming Youhuang to recover and was comprehending his laws. His world heart grew even stronger and within it, his will was the heaven’s will, capable of even stopping time. Other than this, his other heavenheart mandates also slowly changed. After infusing time laws into them, they grew stronger and stronger.
Another ten plus years passed in the Time Realm. During this time, Qin Wentian didn’t find trouble with the Dragon Pool Manor. The Dragon Pool Manor wasn’t an ordinary power and in this place, he wasn’t alone. Mo Qingcheng, Qing`er and his other family and friends were here as well. Once a war started, he had no way to predict the consequences.
Hence, during these ten plus years, he had been silently cultivating. This lasted until one day when Luoshen Lei told him that her father has already arrived in Time City.
Qin Wentian instantly made a decision and left the Time Realm.
Everyone around him left together with him. Today, at the Time Realm’s entrance, Qin Wentian’s group walked out and they started to descend down the stairway.
As he turned his head and glanced at the stairway, Qin Wentian felt as though what happened within was a lifetime ago.
In there, he got acquainted with his younger sister. In there, he obtained the inheritance of the Time King who told him that he would be waiting for him in the future.
Now, he was finally going to leave here. The experiences he had gained during these years inside were extremely important. This convention would be an unforgettable memory to him as well.
“Elder brother, Father is staying in the Ten Miles Inn.” Luoshen Lei transmitted her voice. Clearly, she knew that Qin Wentian was going to stay there and after informing her father, her father decided to stay there as well.”
“Mhm.” Qin Wentian transmitted his voice back in reply. Just so coincidentally, Ten Miles Springwind asked, “Where are we going?”
“I’m returning back to your inn to enjoy my free food and lodging. You wouldn’t have any objections, right?” Qin Wentian laughed.
“You can eat as much and stay as long as you want. After I’m bankrupt, we will just have to organize another trip to rob the Dragon Pool Manor.” Ten Miles Springwind laughed. When he brought up the Dragon Pool Manor, coldness gleamed in Qin Wentian’s eyes.
“Let’s go.” Qin Wentian spoke. After that, their silhouettes flashed as they flew towards the direction of the Ten Miles Inn.
Because of the commencement of the convention, many of the inn’s customers have all headed to the Time Realm. Now that the hundred year period hasn’t ended yet, the atmosphere of the Ten Miles Inn was very quiet. But now, a group of mysterious guests have actually come here. Among them, there were some experts that were extremely powerful and gave off an unfathomable feeling, yet these experts kept a very low-profile and were content to simply wait in the inn.
But after operating for so many years, what type of customers have the Ten Miles Inn not seen before? Since they knew these were major characters, the serving personnel of the inn naturally didn’t disturb them too much and also curbed their curiosity.
At this moment, a group of experts descended from the air. When many people in the inn saw Ten Miles Springwind, they all broke into smiles. Their boss is back from the Time Realm!
