Chapter 1364: Worrying Situation
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Qin Wentian stared at Pei Qing as he spoke in a domineering manner. He wasn't willing to create multiple powerful enemies but it's tough to avoid conflict with some characters. Back then, the first time was when he was in the forbidden ground, and the second time was now. If he continued to endure it, there was only a single path remaining for him. When Pei Qing told him to scram earlier, he would have already done so, slipping away with his tail between his legs.
But clearly, this didn't fit his personality. Hence, he could only offend Pei Qing. Since it was already fated that he would offend Pei Qing, there was no need for him to worry too much. This was the same with Beiming Youhuang. When Beiming Youhuang wanted to seize his memories then, he used all methods at his disposal to prevent it. Unless he was willing to hand over his memories obediently, if not, he could only struggle with everything he had to resist.
He had plenty of enemies, and there are already immortal emperors wanting his death. Hence, he had no wish to further offend Pei Qing's sect, which was why he didn't kill Pei Qing's junior apprentice brother. Just the conflict between him and Pei Qing wasn't a reason sufficient enough for his sect to move against him too.
Qin Wentian's domineering attitude naturally had a shocking effect to some extent. For the first time, Pei Qing seriously surveyed this young man before him. Someone who just broke through to the immortal king realm actually had such a powerful combat strength, and he seemed to be friends with Beiming Nongyue as well, and even appearing here at Beiming Youhuang's princess residence. In fact, he seemed to be fond of Beiming Youhuang too.
Pei Qing stared at Qin Wentian, it wasn't that he never considered Qin Wentian might have some background but rather, it was because he felt that his own identity was too outstanding. In addition, Qin Wentian's current cultivation base simply couldn't compare to his, especially so when he knew that the first time when they met, Qin Wentian was merely an ant at the immortal-foundation realm. That by itself, along with his arrogance, has already caused him to form a disdainful impression towards Qin Wentian.
But when Qin Wentian so domineeringly defeated his junior apprentice brother and even had the gall to say such words to him, Pei Qing couldn't help but to take a step back and consider what sort of character Qin Wentian was exactly.
Naturally, regardless who Qin Wentian was, at the very least as of now, he was merely someone who just entered the immortal king realm. No matter what background Qin Wentian had, it wasn't important to Pei Qing, who was already at the immortal emperor realm. Because ultimately, he still believed that he would become the number one character at the peak in the entire immortal realms.
"Very arrogant. You are the first person who dares to act in this manner in front of me." Pei Qing was silent for a moment before he suddenly laughed. "In that case, I really want to ask who are you exactly?"
"My name is Qin Wentian." Qin Wentian spoke, he didn't bother to say anything else. He understood that things like background are all illusions. One's own strength is the surest guarantee of everything. There was no need for him to brag about himself in front of a young immortal emperor who thought the world about himself.
However, if he really wanted to introduce his own background, Qin Wentian himself didn't even know where to start. A disciple of the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord? A disciple from the Heavenly Talisman Realm? The son-in-law of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor? The Saint Lord of the Battle Saint Tribe? Or perhaps, the successor of the Myriad Devil Sovereign's inheritance?
Actually, many of these identities would serve no purpose at all. After all, on the surface, only the son-in-law of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and disciple of the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord could be used.
"We will meet again." Pei Qing stared at Qin Wentian. His eyes still contained his past arrogance. Qin Wentian, he will remember this name. In addition given his resources, he would soon know the background behind this man.
"Youhuang, I will come and see you in the future." Pei Qing spoke to Beiming Youhuang before he turned and left.
"You have yet to apologize." Qin Wentian smiled. Pei Qing coldly snorted and flicked his sleeves as he left. His people left with him as well. That prince cast a deep glance at Qin Wentian before he too, walked out of the princess residence.
Very swiftly, this place returned to its previous quietness. Only Qin Wentian, Beiming Youhuang and Beiming Nongyue remained.
"Humans are really the same, the promises made when they are so full of themselves, usually counts for nothing, the same as a fart. However, before this he spoke in a voice filled with so much determination as though it would sever iron. Regardless of the people at the immortal king or immortal emperor realm, there's really no shortage of trash like that." Qin Wentian shook his head.
"Indeed, humans are like that. If you are strong enough, there's no problem to force him to keep his promise. But sadly, the current you lacks strength." Beiming Nongyue smiled at Qin Wentian. After that, she glanced at her elder sister, "Sis, seems like you are getting along quite well with Brother Qin. I have been thinking too much. Since this is the case, I won't bother the two of you any longer."
After speaking, Beiming Nongyue actually left as well, exuding a slight fatigue. Although she didn't really believe that there is something between her elder sister and Qin Wentian, after seeing for herself how difficult Qin Wentian is to deal with, she would no longer underestimate him. Regardless of all aspects, Qin Wentian was extremely outstanding, including the realm of being shameless!
Such a powerful yet shameless person should be enough to handle her elder sister whose heart is filled only with cultivation.
Beiming Youhuang's beautiful eyes flashed. Nongyue's words sounded extremely ridiculous to her.
That pair of beautiful and cold eyes landed on Qin Wentian again. Her impression of Qin Wentian changed greatly. That old fellow actually passed onto him a soul art similar to what he taught her. Also, since this was the case, there was no need to doubt Qin Wentian's talent. Jing Yunhe's strength was absolutely not weak, he could be considered as a heaven chosen among immortal kings but he, who had broken through to the immortal king realm for almost a hundred years, actually couldn't withstand a single strike from Qin Wentian. From this, one could tell how outstanding Qin Wentian's combat prowess was.
"Youhuang, I've already chased off that irritating fellow for you. Isn't it about time for my reward…" Qin Wentian stared at Beiming Youhuang, but he only saw ice from her expression. Qin Wentian shivered and then smiled, "The old freak wants me to protect you, I'm only doing my duty. You don't need to pay too much mind to it. Forget about the reward, but I really have things I need to do in the eastern regions. You keeping me here for so long isn't a solution."
"What did the old fellow give to you?" Beiming Youhuang asked again.
"A cultivation art that can complement your Death Scripture. However, Youhuang, it seems that you still want to seize my memories now. I can't tell you that yet." Qin Wentian spoke.
"You can leave then." Beiming Youhuang suddenly spoke, causing Qin Wentian to start. This Beiming Youhuang, was she really letting him go free?
This made Qin Wentian puzzled instead, he initially thought that he would still have to grind her patience down slowly. A smile appeared on his face as he spoke gently, "Seems like Youhuang, you have thought things through. In the future, I will come and visit you if I have the time to."
"You best scram fast before I change my mind." Beiming Youhuang's beautiful eyes were extremely cold. She kept being taken advantage of by Qin Wentian in terms of words. There was a limit to her endurance.
"Okay." Qin Wentian laughed. With a flash of his silhouette, he sped outside. In the air, he turned back and spoke to Beiming Youhuang. "Youhuang, I will release your soul wisp after I leave. May we meet again in the future."
Qin Wentian spoke as he flew towards Beiming Nongyue's residence.
Upon seeing Qin Wentian arriving, Beiming Nongyue instantly welcomed him with a smile, "Elder sister released you?"
"Mhm, your sis truly has a great temper. I'm preparing to leave now, where is Li Yufeng?" Qin Wentian asked.
"He's outside the royal palace." Beiming Nongyue spoke. "Let me bring you to find him?"
"There's no need to. I've already delayed some time during my stay here. Just help me pass on a message to him saying that I'm leaving first." Qin Wentian smiled. He was indeed in a hurry to return to the eastern regions as he had no idea how the situation was now.
"Alright, I won't keep you with me then. Do you need to use a teleportation array?" Beiming Nongyue asked.
"No need, I have a method to get back." Qin Wentian spoke. What sort of solution did he have? It was naturally to use the spatial tunnel to connect to the Heavenly Talisman Realm. That would be the quickest way.
"Okay, let me send you out of the royal palace then." Beiming Nongyue smiled as she soared up into the air.
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded. The two of them flew together and within the palace, there were many people who had strange looks on their faces as they looked at Qin Wentian. The combat prowess of this fellow was so strong, and actually managed to force Pei Qing into retreat. His talent seemed to be extraordinary high too, and he's indeed worthy enough to be a friend for the princess.
After exiting the palace, Beiming Nongyue smiled, "Let's hope you can get married with Princess Qing`er sooner. Me and Yufeng will naturally go to the wedding and congratulate you both."
"I hope so too." Qin Wentian smiled. He clasped his hands together, "Farewell."
As he spoke, his immortal sense extended outward, surrounding this vast region. Although Pei Qing retreated, Qin Wentian couldn't be sure if Pei Qing would camp outside, waiting for him to come out. Such a probability was very high, hence, he would naturally choose to be more cautious.
Under the surveillance of his immortal sense, he didn't spot Pei Qing and his group. He found an empty area and instantly opened up the spatial tunnel and entered the Heavenly Talisman Realm.
Back then when he entered the Heavenly Talisman Realm, he did so from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. But when he exited, he followed a senior brother of the Heavenly Talisman Realm and came to the northern regions. This meant that this time after he entered the Heavenly Talisman Realm, he could choose two exit at two points - either the northern region's exit, or the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect's exit.
He discovered that if he followed more senior brothers to all parts of the immortal realms, in the future, he would be able to traverse vast amounts of distances using the Heavenly Talisman Realm as the connection point. This was one of the heavenly defying points about the Heavenly Talisman Realm.
Right now within the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, Qin Wentian's silhouette appeared in the location where he was supposed to have entered seclusion.
From the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty to the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, he actually only used a few minutes worth of time to travel. This couldn't help but to cause Qin Wentian to sigh in admiration.
With a flash of his silhouette, Qin Wentian entered his residence. The people there were all arranged and sent out to temper themselves, including Little Rascal and Purgatory. Now, Qin Wentian couldn't help but to wonder how they were faring.
Extending his immortal sense out, Qin Wentian exited his residence and went towards the emperor palace to greet the Emperor Lord. However, the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord wasn't there, and the person receiving him was the Taishan Immortal King instead.
"Taishan Immortal King, how's the situation now?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Right now, the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect has already launched a war against us. For the location of the six prefectures, there are already two prefectures that was seized back by them. Our troops retreated and are now guarding the remaining four prefectures." The Taishan Immortal King spoke, causing Qin Wentian to be aware of how serious things were. Back then the commotion of the emperor-ranked war was too huge. Now, the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect finally made their move and launched an all-out war. Other than the immortal emperors who didn't take part, many immortal king generals on both sides were all involved.
Comparing the foundations of both immortal sects, the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect was naturally stronger. Hence, Qin Wentian wasn't really surprised that they could seize back two of the prefectures.
"Fortunately there's also a piece of good news. Bai Wuya has broken through to the immortal emperor realm during his study at the sacred academy. Right now, there are two immortal emperors in our Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. Emperor Bai is now in closed-door seclusion to stabilize his foundation." The Taishan Immortal King spoke. Qin Wentian started, but a smile soon appeared on his face.
"I have to make a trip to the southern regions." Qin Wentian spoke. Since he had broken through to the immortal king realm, it was about time for him to pay a visit again to the Battle Saint Tribe!
