Chapter 1317: The Ending is Set
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Spring goes autumn comes. After spending a long period of time cultivating on the Devil Mountain, Huang Shatian and his group quietly left the mountain. When Qin Wentian's alliance found out about this, Huang Shatian and the others have all disappeared.
Most probably, everyone in Huang Shatian's group understood that if they kept cultivating and waited till the time was up before leaving the mountain together, they would have almost no chance to win against Qin Wentian. On the mountain, the Judiciary Priestess Bai Qing and the monk Bu Jie would definitely stand on Qin Wentian's side.
After leaving the Devil Mountain, Huang Shatian and the others would definitely think of some other methods to kill the people of the Evergreen Alliance when they went to the Fallen Devil Region. After all, the number of experts sent by their side was much more in number and they had a superiority in terms of numbers. When all of them gathered together, they still had quite a high probability of winning the battle.
Naturally, Qin Wentian didn't feel that a fair battle was the way. He didn't forget that any methods were permissible for the adjudication battle. Qin Wentian was long prepared for such a tactic by his enemies.
The deadline of ten years gradually grew closer. Qin Wentian's cultivation was more solid now and has already reached the peak of the ninth level. His next objective is the immortal king realm and hence, he wouldn't just spend his time blindly cultivating. At his current level, what was important is one's insight and comprehension in their law attribute energies. The only way to improve was to constantly seek out battles. Such insights would be extremely rare if one cultivated ordinarily.
"Wentian gege do you really have to leave?" Inside the judiciary hall, Bai Qing stared at Qin Wentian, her eyes filled with reluctance. She who was a devil cultivator, as well as being a priestess of the Judiciary Devil Hall, it was impossible for her to leave the Devil Mountain and head to the immortal realms. After Qin Wentian left, it was unknown when they would meet each other again.
"Mhm. The deadline for the adjudication battle is soon approaching. There must be a conclusion to it one way or another. However since I'm completely unrestricted now on the Devil Mountain, I'll come to the Myriad Devil Islands to visit you in the future once I have some free time." Qin Wentian patted Bai Qing on her head gently as he laughed.
"Naturally. Little lass Qing, you have to work hard in cultivation. Once you reach the devil king realm, it would be much more convenient for you to travel between both the immortal and devil territories."
Bai Qing nodded seriously. "Okay, I'll definitely work hard in cultivation but now, I want to personally send Wentian gege off to the immortal realms first. Since this battle concerns Wentian gege and elder sis Qing'er and the location is in the Myriad Devil Islands, I want to do my part and help you all.
Qin Wentian's eyes flashed. He naturally understood Bai Qing's intentions. It's just that is it really okay to make use of the power of the judiciary hall…?
"Don't worry. Wentian gege, during these years, you have also seen the attitude the judiciary hall have towards you. Don't forget our conjectures." Bai Qing laughed.
"But back then, that hegemon-level existence did say that the devil halls of the Devil Mountain wouldn't interfere in our battle once we leave the mountain." Qin Wentian furrowed his brows.
"Yup, we won't interfere. I only wish to send Wentian gege off. But naturally if there are other devil cultivators who dares to help the other side. Hehehe!" Bai Qing giggled. Qin Wentian instantly understood what she meant. This lass…
"Alright then. Let me gather my allies and we will leave immediately." Qin Wentian nodded. During these few years, there were only roughly about 50 plus participants of the Evergreen Alliance who came to the Devil Mountain. As for the others, they are situated in the islands within the Fallen Devil Region. If they hadn't perished, they would all head to the entrance point there. Hence, Qin Wentian has to set off earlier. If not, if the other members of his alliance encountered Huang Shatian without him, they would all probably be wiped out.
Qin Wentian gathered his allies on the mountain. Everyone understood what Qin Wentian wanted to do. The deadline was nearing. It's about time for them to return to the immortal realms.
"There are a few friends waiting for me at the foot of the mountain. We will head to the Vast Sky Devil Region first." Qin Wentian spoke. In this alliance, Qin Wentian was the central core. The adjudication battle was like a storm and he was in the center of it. In addition to the fact that his strength was already among the strongest in this alliance, everyone naturally would follow his orders.
The group of experts plus a regiment of troops from the judiciary hall began to depart. Bujie came by to send them off. He temporarily had no plans to leave here. There were some others with the same view as him. In this sacred ground of the devils, there were many secret arts and techniques. Although they cultivate the immortal path rather than the devil path, everything was linked via the Great Dao. By studying these, it would set a solid foundation and aid them greatly for their future paths.
...
On the floating island of the Vast Sky Devil Region, within the emperor palace, the Vast Sky Devil Emperor stood in the air, staring at the group of experts arriving as sharpness gleamed in his eyes. Beside him, his daughter was there as well. When she noted the figure of the young man who came to her to seek hre father's help, her state of heart couldn't help but to fluctuate.
Her father told her that this group of people consisted of troops from the Devil Mountain. Now, they were here to escort Qin Wentian, ensuring his safety.
This fellow was simply a monster.
Qin Wentian came over and smiled, "Senior devil emperor, Qin Wentian came here to fulfil the promise I made to you back then."
"Mhm, Qin Wentian, you are truly someone who can create miracles." The Vast Sky Devil Emperor laughed, glancing at Bai Qing who stood beside Qin Wentian. Right now, Bai Qing was decked out in her full judiciary attire and exuded an incomparably icy aura.
"Most probably, they are from the Judiciary Devil Hall of the Devil Mountain, right?"
Back then, Yulong Shengtu was already so arrogant and tyrannical when he arrived. This judiciary hall was much more ancient and stronger compared to the Imperial Dragon Devil Hall Yulong Shengtu was from. Their status was a level higher in comparison.
"This is Madam Bai, our judiciary priestess." A devil king at the side introduced.
"Priestess' arrival brings light to my humble dwelling. I will immediately get someone to prepare a banquet."
"Senior, there's no need to trouble yourself. I'm in a rush and I need to head to the Fallen Devil Emperor as soon as possible." Qin Wentian smiled.
"That's fine as well." The Vast Sky Devil Emperor nodded, "Let's move out directly then, we will use the teleportation array and head straight for the Fallen Devil Island. Things would be faster this way."
"Sure." Qin Wentian nodded as the group of them moved out. The Vast Sky princess didn't follow. When she stared at the back of Qin Wentian's departing figure, many complex thoughts flashed through her heart. An immortal realm cultivator arrived for the first time in the Myriad Devil Islands, he climbed all the way up, from participating in the birthday celebration of the Fallen Devil Emperor to ascending the peak of the Devil Mountain, even to leading an army here. He only took a few short years to accomplish all of this.
The radiance of some people was destined to never be masked. No matter where they went, they would be akin to the sun.
She was also faintly impressed by her father. The Vast Sky Devil Emperor once told her that since he promised to help Qin Wentian, they would do so directly and not play any of those under-handed small tricks, causing Qin Wentian to be unhappy. Now, when looking back, her father's judgement was extremely astute. Qin Wentian could even enjoy the protection of a regiment of troops from the Judiciary Devil Hall. Even if he wanted to break his promise now, due to unhappiness caused if they played any tricks back then, they could do nothing to him.
A wild wave of commotion arose in the Vast Sky Devil Emperor. When the people there saw all these experts, their hearts were incomparably shocked.
After the Vast Sky Devil Island, it was the Fallen Devil Island's turn to be shocked. When the Judiciary Hall's army arrived, the situation was just like it was back when Yulong Shengtu appeared, causing a storm of commotion. After the Fallen Devil Emperor discovered this, he personally came by and when he saw Qin Wentian at the lead of the army, the Fallen Devil Emperor didn't know what to think in his heart.
"Since the judiciary army is here, do you all need to head to my emperor palace for a rest?" The Fallen Devil Emperor asked.
"There's no need for that. If you are sincere, you can come along with us. If you don't, just forget it." Bai Qing's voice was cold. This woman who was like a naive young lady before Qin Wentian, was still so cold and imposing when she faced others, even if the person she was talking to was a devil emperor.
The eyes of the Fallen Devil Emperor flashed. After a few moments, he nodded, "Right, no matter what the judiciary priestess might need, you can just list your demands."
He, as a devil emperor, even if he understood Bai Qing had no authority to command him to do things, he knew that Bai Qing's status and authority was even greater compared to Yulong Shengtu back then. In the future if she managed to become a grand priestess, her authority would tower up into the sky. Bai Qing did say that it was fine if he didn't accompany them, but there's also the fact that Qin Wentian was very unhappy with him. That time, Qin Wentian already brought the Vast Sky Devil Emperor to wage a war. If his actions caused them to be unhappy now, he didn't know if there would be any trouble in the future.
Hence, after a few moments of consideration, he decided to go together with them.
"Since this is the case, many thanks to senior devil emperor." Qin Wentian laughed. With two devil emperors aiding him, there should be no suspense to the result of this adjudication battle. Even if Huang Shatian brought devil emperors to help him, with the presence of experts from the Judiciary Devil Hall, which devil emperors would dare to risk helping Huang Shatian and interfere in the battle?
"Old Xia died for nothing." The Fallen Devil Emperor sighed in his heart. Back then the Old Xia Devil King bullied Qin Wentian because he wanted to aid Huang Shatian. There's also the fact that Qin Wentian was merely a junior with no background nor power. It was useless even if he had outstanding talent. But in just merely a few years worth of time, Qin Wentian had already reached such a height where an army from the judiciary hall was willing to escort him. It was already destined that Old Xia would face a calamity after he bullied Qin Wentian.
"Might I trouble senior to lead the way? Let's head to the devil gate entrance leading to the immortal realms." Qin Wentian spoke. The Fallen Devil Emperor nodded, "Let's move out then."
As he spoke, he stepped out first. Before Qin Wentian left, he cast a glance in a certain direction. That place, was the direction the Celestial Devil Lodge was in.
He could only sigh silently with helplessness in his heart as he turned and departed this place.
With two great devil emperors, and an entire army, everywhere they passed by, the Fallen Devil Island was in a frenzy. Rumors relating to Qin Wentian once again circulated the entire region with great speed.
Back then when Qin Wentian participated in the birthday celebration event and was selfishly blocked from the top three by the Old Xia Devil King. Qin Wentian rejected the reward from the Fallen Devil Emperor in a fit of anger and three great devil kings attempted to hunt him down but were all killed instead.
Later on, Qin Wentian led the Vast Sky Devil Emperor back here for revenge, killing Old Xia, questioning the Fallen Devil Emperor and shocking the entire Fallen Devil Island.
And now, when he came back again, he didn't merely bring the Vast Sky Devil Emperor along. A regiment of troop from the Judiciary Devil Hall of the Devil Mountain was together with him as well.
Even the Fallen Devil Emperor had no choice but to compromise and submit, leading Qin Wentian here. What a hot-blooded story was this, this caused the hearts of countless youths here to heat up.
In the Celestial Devil Lodge, two women stood together. One of them had tears in her eyes. He returned, returned in such an inconceivably imposing manner, causing the Fallen Devil Emperor to compromise and submit. Such a man was truly extremely dazzling.
The lodge lord of the Celestial Devil Lodge glanced at the fragile and weak but beautiful woman beside her while sighing softly in her heart. At the same time, she herself was immensely shocked. Back then Xin Yu once said this, one day when Qin Wentian sat in the throne of the sky, the women around him would all be extremely radiant, as bright as the stars. As for her, she was unworthy to be one of them. And now, has that young man from before begun to step on the path leading to his throne in the sky?!
