Chapter 1679: New Hegemon of the Eastern Regions
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The Ying Clan was one of the three great ancient clans of the southern regions. They established a Ying Empire and was immensely powerful. However, Qin Wentian crushed all of them with the might of himself alone. Upon radiating that light, all the Ying Clan’s experts died one after another, none could escape. What power was this? He was like a God that could control the lives of the myriad of living things.
Although the Southern Phoenix Clan had a feeling of renewed life after a calamity, when they saw the corpses of many of their kin and comrades on the ground, their expressions turned incomparably heavy once more. This caused the Southern Phoenix Matriarch to sigh silently in her heart.
“Wentian, you have saved the Southern Phoenix Clan this time.” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch walked towards Qin Wentian as she spoke. In the past, to her, Qin Wentian was just a junior with outstanding talent. But now, Qin Wentian had already surpassed her.
“Phoenix Matriarch, there’s no need to be so polite with me.” Qin Wentian smiled.
“You should have heard the words of the Ying Clan Leader earlier. If the Ying Clan from the Supreme Ancient Realms really did send reinforcements…” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch felt extremely worried. The Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms was the legendary upper world. She didn’t know what sorts of experts would descend from there.
“To think that the Ying Clan actually originated from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. Since the Ying Clan decided to wipe the Southern Phoenix Clan out today, only one side would have been able to survive. Even if I didn’t destroy the Ying Clan, when their experts descend, would they spare me if they are stronger than me?” Qin Wentian smiled. The Southern Phoenix Matriarch instantly understood Qin Wentian’s meaning. That’s right, both sides wanted to exterminate each other completely, and wouldn’t stop until one side was obliterated. If Qin Wentian show mercy today, and the reinforcements for the Ying Clan who came in the future were stronger than him, would they show mercy and not destroy the Southern Phoenix Clan and kill Qin Wentian? And if the experts they sent were weaker than Qin Wentian, was there a need for her to fear them?
“Phoenix Matriarch, you can set your heart at ease. There’s a ban on entering the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. Although the ban is now relaxed, those who could enter here definitely wouldn’t have cultivation bases higher than me.” Qin Wentian soothed. The Southern Phoenix Matriarch laughed and nodded when she heard that. “Wentian, given your current cultivation base now, it’s not suitable to refer to me as the Southern Phoenix Matriarch. You can directly refer to me by my name, Nanfeng Yaoyue.”
The Southern Phoenix Matriarch, the Evergreen Great Emperor, all of them had impressive titles. For example, if Qin Wentian currently encountered an immortal emperor, did he still need to respectfully refer to them with their titles? How could any immortal emperor be worthy enough for that? Although Qin Wentian didn’t mind and continued to refer to the Southern Phoenix Matriarch by her title, it didn’t mean that the Southern Phoenix Matriarch could ignore Qin Wentian’s current strength. It was only because they had a close relationship before that she continued to call him Wentian. If they were not familiar, she could only refer to him as Senior despite the fact that he was much younger than her.
Many people from the Southern Phoenix Clan had strange expressions on their faces. The vast majority of them didn’t know of the Southern Phoenix Matriarch’s real name. Now, they finally learned of it, to think that she would have such a gentle name.
“Since phoenix matriarch has spoken, I will call you directly by your name then.” Qin Wentian carefreely laughed. He might have a debt of gratitude to repay to the Southern Phoenix Matriarch but she was ultimately an elder after all. Right now, it was most suitable for them to interact as friends.
“Yaoyue, these are some messaging crystals. This is yours, I’ve already imprinted my strand of immortal sense into it. If you want to look for me, you can send a strand of your immortal sense in and communicate with me. Also, you need to leave behind a strand of immortal sense in my messaging crystal as well. It would be easier for us to communicate directly in the future.” Qin Wentian spoke. As he spoke, everyone understood that these crystals were definitely treasures for conversing in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. This method was much better compared to them leaving strands of protective immortal sense on their junior’s body.
The phoenix matriarch nodded, she directly sent a strand of her immortal sense into Qin Wentian’s crystal and kept the others he took out. With a wave of his hand, two messaging crystals appeared again and floated towards Nanfeng Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge. He smiled, “This is something I’m giving you two privately. There’s no need to get them from the Southern Phoenix Matriarch. My immortal sense is within them, you two can also leave your immortal sense inside my messaging crystal.”
Nanfeng Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge smiled and nodded. Right now, QinWentian’s identity was completely different, he could directly refer to the Southern Phoenix Matriarch by her name. But so what of it? They were still his good friends. With the messaging crystals, they could find Qin Wentian for a leisurely chat at anytime.
Many people turned their envious gazes on to the two maidens. This was what connection is. What sort of character was Qin Wentian now? He was an existence at the ancient emperor level, he naturally wouldn’t leave his immortal sense inside all the messaging crystals he gave the Southern Phoenix Matriarch. Those who could communicate directly with him were only those he deemed friends – the Southern Phoenix Matriarch, Nanfeng Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge.
Everyone then turned their gazes to Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng who stood beside Qin Wentian. That year when Qin Wentian died, the hair of this princess of the Evergreen Immortal Empire turned white in an instant. She then became the White-Hair Killing Goddess after that. Mo Qingcheng’s expression turned ashen as her heart died, she became something resembling a zombie. It was rumored that she only recovered gradually after many years of comforting by Princess Qing`er. During these years, the two of them have experienced too many things and endured too much. Right now, the dark clouds have finally passed and the sun has appeared.
“Temporarily seal the news of the matter here. Do not spread it out or the allies of our enemies won’t jump into my trap.” Qin Wentian spoke. All the Ying Clan’s members here on the battlefield today were insta-killed by him, they didn’t have time to send any news back. As long as the Southern Phoenix Clan members didn’t leak the news here, no one would know that this deed was done by Qin Wentian. He still had debts of revenge unaccounted for from those years ago. It was best to seal all the information about the matter today here temporarily or his enemies would all be so scared that they would go into hiding.
“Did you guys hear it? If anyone dares to reveal any information about the matter here today, their cultivation bases will be crippled. In addition, go and clean up the battlefield and issue hunting orders. Kill every Ying Clan member that’s still living in the immortal realms.” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch imposingly commanded. The expressions of everyone turned heavy. Qin Wentian had saved their clan, since he didn’t want any news to be leaked, they would naturally follow his orders. They also knew that Qin Wentian wanted revenge for the war those years ago in the Evergreen Immortal Empire.
More than half of the major powers in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms had participated, all of them wanting his death. Although they didn’t know how Qin Wentian survived that, but this debt, including the sufferings Evergreen Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng had to endure through all these years… there was no doubt that this debt had to be accounted for.
“I have not finished settling the matters in the Evergreen Immortal Empire yet. Yaoyue, I’ll return first.” Qin Wentian spoke.
“All the strongest experts of the Ying Clan have already been killed. The following matters are easy to handle. Let me go back with you.” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch spoke. Nanfeng Yunxi, Nanfeng Shengge and several other maidens decided to follow her as well. After that, all of them entered the teleportation array and instantly returned back to the imperial palace of the Evergreen Immortal Empire.
Upon seeing Qin Wentian returning so quickly and even bringing the Southern Phoenix Matriarch with him, the eyes of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, the White Emperor and the others all gleamed sharply. The troubles the Southern Phoenix Clan was facing were all resolved so easily?
“Evergreen, you recovered from your injuries?” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch asked.
“Mhm, they are almost fully recovered, all thanks to that little brat.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor laughed, he still referred to Qin Wentian as ‘little brat,’ which caused the gaze of the Southern Phoenix Matriarch to flicker. This Evergreen must truly be very satisfied. There was no choice though, after all, who told him to be the father-in-law of Qin Wentian? There was naturally no problems for him to refer to Qin Wentian as ‘little brat.’
“Seems like you are in a very good mood.” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch smiled. She then glanced at the situation here. The subordinates of Qin Wentian had surrounded the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and his allies. None of them dared to make any moves recklessly.
“These immortal emperors are…?” The phoenix matriarch glanced at Qin Wentian.
“They are subordinates Qin Wentian brought back with him when he returned. We are now waiting for the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and his allies to call for reinforcements.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor directly replied for Qin Wentian. The heart of the Southern Phoenix Matriarch trembled with shock. Qin Wentian had such a large group of immortal emperors as his subordinates. Seems like the sky over the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms was truly about to change.
When the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperors and his allies saw the Southern Phoenix Matriarch and the members of the Southern Phoenix Clan here, their faces all grew extremely ugly to behold. What was going on with the Ying Clan? Could it be that they hadn’t yet launched the decisive final blow to destroy the Southern Phoenix Clan?
“The Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire is located in the central regions. If we wait for them to send reinforcements, it might require some time.” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch spoke.
“These people are on the verge of death. If they want to live, they would definitely tell their reinforcements to spare no expense and rush here with their greatest speed via the teleportation arrays. I believe that they would be able to do it.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. The phoenix matriarch nodded, that’s true.
Qin Wentian wasn’t in a hurry. He took out many messaging crystals. There were naturally no need to mention about Qing`er and Qingcheng. He had long given them one. Now, he passed these crystals to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and the others and after a round of testing, all of them felt that this messaging crystal was extremely convenient to use.
“How are the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord, Bai Wuya and my junior apprentice brother Jun Mengchen? Qing`er, do you know the whereabouts of Little Rascal?” Qin Wentian asked. These people whom he mentioned were those he had missed a lot.
He had a debt of gratitude to Senior Bai Wuya and Jun Mengchen has always been like a real younger brother to him.
Qing`er furrowed her brows as a cold intent flashed past her face. The eyes of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and Southern Phoenix Matriarch gleamed with sharpness. After that, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor spoke, “Let me explain it. During these years while you left, the entire immortal realms were in chaos. You have also seen the state my Evergreen Immortal Empire was in. The various powers of the eastern regions all lost their splendor and glory of the psat. The Skymist Immortal Empire, the Paragon Sword Sect and the Taihua Immortal Dynasty were all disbanded. The Sky Demon Palace collapsed, only the Beast God Sect that’s located in an extremely cold location is still left standing. Can you guess who currently is the strongest power in the eastern regions?”
“I have no idea.” Qin Wentian shook his head.
“The Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor spoke, his words causing Qin Wentian’s eyes to gleam with sharpness.
“The Heavenly Talisman Realm?” Qin Wentian instantly thought of the Heavenly Talisman Realm. He naturally understood that the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect was none other than a front for the Heavenly Talisman Realm. Was the Heavenly Talisman Realm finally planning on coming out from behind the scenes? Even Qin Wentian, who was once a disciple of the Heavenly Talisman Realm, had no idea how many members they had. But there was no doubt that the Heavenly Talisman Realm here in Azure Mystic would surely be extremely powerful.
He didn’t interrupt. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor continued, “Initially, the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect was pressured and forced by Eastern Sage to disband. However, they suddenly revived and appeared again, revealing their trump cards. They actually had an army of immortal emperors hiding in reserve and even more immortal kings. They then started to display their strength, wanting to rule the eastern regions, claiming hegemony here, wanting all the various powers to submit. They started first by wiping out the Violet Emperor’s violet mountain. The Violet Emperor had no choice and could only join Eastern Sage, throwing his lot in with Old Devil Duo Tian. After that, when the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect wanted the Sky Demon Palace to submit, they refused and what awaited them was a complete annihilation. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Skymist Immortal Empire, the Paragon Sword Sect and the Taihua Immortal Dynasty had long disbanded, they would most probably face the same choice – either to submit or be destroyed. The Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect actually rose up in such chaotic times within such a short period, becoming the strongest peak power in the entire eastern regions.
“Many people could see how ambitious the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect is. However, chaos reigned supreme in the current immortal realms and the wars are unceasing. The Ying Clan and the the Southern Phoenix Clan have always been in opposition, even my Evergreen Immortal Empire had already been embroiled in the conflict right from the beginning. All of us have too much to handle, who would still dare to antagonize the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect at this moment? There was once a demon race who wanted to ally with the other demonic races to wipe the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect out. After the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect learned of it, they directly exterminated that demonic race. Right now in the immortal realms, only a scarce few have enough power to contend directly against the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. In such chaotic times, the other major powers could only choose to ally with each other for the sake of survival.”
“The Heavenly Talisman Realm is clearly wanting to use the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect to become the hegemon of the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. Dominating the eastern regions is merely their first step.” Qin Wentian silently mused. This time around, if it wasn’t for the fact that the ban had been relaxed, the Heavenly Talisman Realm’s plan might have truly succeeded. But now, since so many experts from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms have descended here, it was hard to say, things weren’t so clear now.
“Jun Mengchen’s personality is too hot headed and direct. That person was named a traitor, he has already left the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect.” The next sentence of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor instantly caused Qin Wentian’s heart to tense with nervousness!
