Chapter 1206: Facing Huang Shatian
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Qin Wentian stared at Huang Shatian. The two of them observed each other at the same time using the diagram in the air. His eyes similarly gleamed with a cold killing intent as he met Huang Shatian's gaze.
Huang Shatian didn't head forward. Right now, there were too many experts around Qin Wentian. Despite being at the peak of immortal-foundation, it was highly improbable for him to be able to fight against so many experts alone. It was already quite troublesome to deal the just monks from the Askheart Temple. Also, he had to keep in the mind the people from the Battle Saint Tribe and Matriarch Ji's disciples. Even if Huang Shatian had extreme confidence in himself, he still wouldn't dare act out alone.
He waited patiently as many experts from the White Tiger Alliance gathered around, placing him in the center.
Despite the words spoken by the sacred academy, both Qin Wentian and Huang Shatian didn't intend to back away now. Both of them were supreme geniuses in the immortal realms and the war resulted in severe casualties to both sides. A death grudge had already formed between the two factions of power.
A wind gusted by, and right as the experts from both centers gathered together, in another location, the golden-winged roc Jia Nantian had already descended from the air and appeared before the mysterious young man from the Beast God Sect. Right now, Jia Nantian was at the peak of immortal-foundation and was also a pure-blooded, golden-winged roc. His wings were as sharp as immortal weapons and his talons could even shatter some of them. Each and every one of his attacks had the power to reap lives away.
However, upon observing the diagram in the air, everyone soon discovered that the mysterious young man who no one had recognized was actually someone extremely terrifying. He was proficient in the abilities of ten thousand beasts, a mastery akin to a lord of all beasts. His eyes gleamed which seemed to affect Jia Nantian, who was struck with the need to submit and grovel before his feet. The two of them engaged in an earth-shattering battle, shaking the entire space around them.
Jia Nantian was like a sovereign of the skies, while the expert from the Beast God Sect lorded over a myriad of demonic beasts. After a long time, neither party could break the defenses of the other. This battle greatly shocked the hearts of everyone; to think that the mysterious young man had enough power to fight equally against Jia Nantian… Clearly, he was also one of the few who stood at the absolute peak of the sacred academy.
Nanfeng Yunxi returned to Qin Wentian's side, and so did Little Rascal and Purgatory. When all the experts of their alliance finally gathered together, smiles could be seen in the eyes of many people. However, they still felt a silent sorrow for those who had died in the course of this war. There were several who had either died fighting, or had been tortured to death after being hunted down by their enemies—the cause of their deaths was still uncertain.
Their eyes were filled with bitter resentment and rage as they stared at the experts around Huang Shatian. Without a doubt, all those who were missing now, had all been killed by the experts of the White Tiger Alliance.
Huang Shatian finally moved. Everyone in the White Tiger Alliance followed his lead, and despite the pride of the white tigers, they had absolute faith towards those with power. Among such people, Huang Shatian was the strongest. Hence, he naturally had the ability to command them.
Their group proceeded forward imposingly, leaving from one sacred academy towards the sacred academy that Qin Wentian was currently in.
Despite the academy law stating in a solemn voice that no more slaughter was to occur, the flames of anger filled the hearts of the experts from both sides, and their mutual resentment couldn't be so easily quenched.
Before the war in the Sky Connecting Realms, both parties had trepidation in their hearts and so, they had proceeded with caution. But after the war truly erupted, their trepidation had vanished. When the experts from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire and White Tiger Race gained the absolute advantage, they began hunting down the people from the Southern Phoenix Alliance. After finally capturing some maidens from the Southern Phoenix Clan, the lust in their hearts flared out of control. They were all thinking 'so what if they raped and killed them?' Who would know that they were the ones who did it?
There were so many experts from the various powers who participated. The Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire, the White Tiger Race, the Violet Emperor Sect, the Thundergod Hall, and the Skymist Immortal Empire. What could the Southern Phoenix Clan do in retaliation? Could it be that they weren't afraid to declare war in the external world against all these peak powers?
The addictive feeling of overwhelming superiority caused all the uneasiness and misgivings in their hearts to vanish, and their courage intensified. So in that case, why should the experts of the Southern Phoenix Clan and Matriarch Ji's disciples still hold back? When they retaliated, they naturally did so with their full prowess. Nie Yunchang's death had ignited Qing`er's fury. So even if the enemy was Huang Youdi, she had no qualms about killing him.
Once the war in the Sky Connecting Realm erupted, the situation had already spiraled out of control.
When Huang Shatian and his group entered the academy Qin Wentian was in, the countless geniuses in the surroundings could feel the terrifying killing intent radiating from Huang Shatian. In fact, they all felt that despite the anger of the sacred academy, Huang Shatian would still proceed with the slaughter in order to avenge Huang Youdi.
This was especially so when they saw his cold and terrifying eyes.
When Qin Wentian's people saw Huang Shatian leading his group over, their expressions all turned heavy. They had lost the previous war in the Sky Connecting Realm all because of a single person—Huang Shatian. He had reversed the tide with just his strength and now, he could even defeat four supreme devil-experts of the Myriad Devil Islands. What terrifying boundaries had his strength reached? Who would be able to obstruct him?
Those who were more observant had noticed that in a certain direction not too far away, a group of devil-cultivators from the Myriad Devil Islands had already appeared. It was none other than the female priestess of the Judiciary Hall as well as the four supreme devil-experts and other subordinates under her.
It felt like she had been here since the beginning to quietly observe the situation, even before Huang Shatian had made his appearance.
The experts from both sides no longer needed to look at the sacred academy diagram in the air. They could already see their enemies right before their very eyes. Huang Shatian soared through the air, and each of his steps contained an overwhelming power of laws, trampling on the hearts of everyone. His face was expressionless, yet he exuded a domineering pressure. He was a magnificent character, his abilities both remarkable and unequaled.
After reaching a location not far away from Qin Wentian's group, Huang Shatian halted his steps and peered down imperiously at Qin Wentian and the others. His cold eyes seemed to regard them as nothing but a pile of corpses. There were no emotions in them at all.
He glanced at Qin Wentian, but it was merely a fleeting look before he turned away. It felt as though in Huang Shatian's eyes, he had never treated Qin Wentian as his opponent. Or to put it in a better way, right here among all his enemies, not one of them was qualified for him to treat them as an opponent. None of them were worthy enough, but it was precisely this group of people who caused the death of his younger brother.
He didn't mind letting Huang Youdi suffer a little, or even to let him endure some humiliation, since such incidents would be able to grind away and polish the temperament of his younger brother.
But now, Huang Youdi had actually died, his life forever extinguished at the hands of someone else.
The person who killed him was a woman, a woman who he'd once praised before. She was none other than the daughter of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, a disciple of Matriarch Ji.
Huang Shatian's gaze ignored Qin Wentian and landed directly on Qing`er who was standing behind him.
"I met you once within the academy and thought that you weren't so bad, that you had an extreme amount of potential. The truth was as such; if not there would be no way for Youdi to die by your hand." Huang Shatian stared at Qing`er as he coldly spoke. He then continued, "But how did you kill him? And how could you actually dare to kill him?"
Qing`er stared coldly at Huang Shatian. Her eyes lacked any traces of terror. How could she dare to kill him? When Nie Yunchang said those words, she didn't hate her since she understood that Huang Youdi was the person she should hate. She had never once wanted to kill anyone as much as she had in that moment. When her hatred had reached its peak, she didn't care anymore and had even gone so far as to ignore heavy injuries to herself just as long as she could kill Huang Youdi.
Why wouldn't she dare? If time were to be reversed, she would still make the same decision.
"What a stubborn woman. Now, it's useless no matter what I say. My younger brother is already dead and even if I killed you now, he won't come back to life," Huang Shatian said calmly. He then glanced behind him, and an expert placed a corpse onto the ground. This corpse was none other than Huang Youdi's body, he who had already fallen.
"If you wish to die more peacefully. You can kneel down before my younger brother and admit your remorse. I can allow you to suffer a little less if you do that," Huang Shatian said calmly, his voice containing an extreme arrogance as well as an overwhelming coldness.
With regards to the one who killed his younger brother Huang Youdi, Huang Shatian didn't merely want to kill Qing`er. He even wanted her to kneel down as penance.
"Impudent!" The disciples of Matriarch Ji coldly cried out. "Huang Youdi deserved to die."
"You guys must have participated as well, right? Since you are all disciples of Matriarch Ji, I can give you a little bit of face. All of you are to kneel and kowtow to his corpse and cripple your own immortal-foundations. I will not kill any of you." Huang Shatian stared at Mo Ziyan as he spoke. Mo Ziyan was proficient in spatial energy and was extremely powerful. However, Huang Shatian disregarded her entirely. With him here, should he choose to kill someone, who could obstruct him?
Only to see that right now, a disciple of Matriarch Ji carried the body of Nie Yunchang out. Her eyes were cold as she stared at Huang Shatian.
"Huang Wudi, White-eye!" At this moment, a voice abruptly rang out. Qin Wentian was the one who spoke. Huang Shatian and the rest turned to him, but Qin Wentian wasn't looking at Huang Shatian. Just like Huang Shatian's earlier arrogant behavior, Qin Wentian directly ignored his existence as his eyes bore down on Huang Wudi and White-eye.
"The two of you kneel down before Nie Yunchang and express your remorse by kowtowing. I can allow you two to suffer a little less as you die." Qin Wentian coldly spoke. At this moment, all the spectators were shocked as they stared at Qin Wentian.
He was returning Huang Shatian's words right back at them.
"How truly insolent, an insignificant being who doesn't know the immensity of the heavens and earth. Are you even worthy?" Some expert from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire sneered. This Qin Wentian, didn't he know that a calamity has already arrived for him?
"Back then, Buyu from the Askheart Temple as well as four other experts protected you, allowing you a chance to escape. You are merely a loser dog yet you still dare to speak so arrogantly today? Don't worry, after your woman dies, she won't be lonely. I will kill you and send you to hell so that you can keep her company," Huang Shatian stated generously.
"Loser dog?" Qin Wentian coldly laughed. "Back then, an eighth-level prince of your Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire also thought of me in this way. But what happened? Why don't you guys even know how he died?"
The gazes of everyone froze in surprise. They instantly recalled the fact that Huang Dangtian and a few other supreme experts had tried to hunt down the fifth-level Qin Wentian. After that, all of them seemed to have vanished into thin air. Now, from Qin Wentian's words, it appeared that he had indeed killed them.
But back then, he was merely at the fifth-level of immortal-foundation. How could he have kill so many experts who were so much stronger than him?
"The protection rule of the sacred academy was still in place then. How did you kill Dangtian?" Huang Wudi's killing intent permeated the area.
"Under the protection rule of the sacred academy, didn't I also manage to barbeque some white tigers back then?" Qin Wentian replied, causing a flash of understanding to appear in everyone's eyes.
However, Huang Shatian merely laughed coldly. The eyes with which he looked at Qin Wentian, was like staring at a man who was already dead. He then lifted his hand and dropped it down in a signal to attack!
