Qin Wentian stared at Han Dongjiang, Jiang Yan and the others who were targeting him. His calm eyes flickered with the hint of a cold light.
"Miss Pei Yu, there’s no need to bother with these people. Please return first." Qin Wentian first spoke to Pei Yu, after that, he cast a glance at Pei Tianyuan as he spoke, "Although this place has beautiful scenery, food and even a beautiful legend. These people are masters at spoiling one’s enthusiasm. Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. Farewell."
As he spoke, Qin Wentian’s silhouette flickered as he soared to the skies, moving with the speed of a bolt of lightning.
"Wanting to leave?" Zurius of the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor coldly questioned. The killing intent gushing from him was extremely terrifying, accompanied by a raging ferocious battle intent. He lifted his fist and punched out towards the air. Momentarily, a fearsome war beast appeared, it’s roars shaking the heavens as it lunged towards Qin Wentian. However, Qin Wentian dodged, he transformed into blurry shadows, streaking through the skies.
Terrifying rumbling attacks blasted through space, the reverberations caused even the ground to shake lightly. Zurius’ eyes narrowed, he saw that Qin Wentian didn’t slow down in the slightest despite the attacks and continued flying forward. Coldly snorting, he directly soared up into the skies as sped towards Qin Wentian’s direction as well. The aura gushing forth from him skyrocketed and the mighty rebound force caused booming sounds to echoed from the ground as large cracks appeared.
Nion’s eyes shone with coldness, she too stepped forth as her sword flew out from her sheathe. Stepping onto it, she pursued after Qin Wentian.
"Do you think you can escape?" Jiang Yan, Shu Luyao and the rest similarly chased after him. In the blink of an eye, several people attending the banquet all soared into the air. Less than half of the original attendees remained. This scene made many reveal expressions of interest on their faces. Who would have expected that a conflict would occur during the Jiangling King’s banquet and that the banquet had just started but many experts had already left to pursue their target.
However, Qin Wentian’s cultivation base was merely at the third level of Celestial Phenomenon, it wouldn’t be too long before he was killed by these people and they would soon return back to the banquet.
Those experts still remaining behind felt a little sympathetic to him. Although this young man was extraordinary, he didn’t know what was good for him. Just like what Han Dongjiang had said, if Qin Wentian was a disciple of the Wondergate Immortal Manor and shared the same background as Cheron, he could very well oppose those people and it was fine even if he acted against them. But because he had no background behind him, yet he still didn’t know when to retreat and was keen on courting death, they could only sigh in their hearts at Qin Wentian’s ignorance of not knowing when to take a step back. There were many people like him in the vast immortal realms whose talents were outstanding but all of them died a premature death because they couldn’t control their temper.
Such scenarios were very common, Pei Tianyuan had seen it for himself the fall of many young geniuses before. He was very familiar with the rules of the immortal realms.
Currently, Pei Tianyuan’s countenance was exceedingly calm. He merely lifted his wine cup and raised it to toast Ji Kong of the Cloud Tower Sage Sect, both of them enjoying their wine. After that, Pei Tianyuan turned to everyone, lifting his wine cup and smiled, "Don’t let these small matters spoil the mood of everyone’s enjoyment. Let’s drink up first while we wait for their return."
"Jiangling King, you are too polite."
"Many thanks to the Jiangling King and Tower Lord Ji Kong for your hospitality."
Many politely stated, all of them showing their respect. Only the countenance of Pei Yu who was at the side of Pei Tianyuan, remained pale and unsightly.
.....
At this moment, Qin Wentian was flying through the air. The snowy landscape beneath him was like a paradise on earth, extremely beautiful. Sadly, the him now completely had no time to admire them. His speed was lightning-quick, and shot through the air like a beam of light. In a short period of time, he had already left the Driftsnow Inn’s area and was directly shuttling towards the center of the Driftsnow City.
The experts from the major powers followed closely behind him. The expressions on the faces of these people were cold, flashing with killing intent. All of them took out their divine weapons and sped after Qin Wentian with blinding speed.
These people, being from major powers, were naturally undoubtedly all extremely powerful.
"Cheron. I can temporarily forget our conflict today. But you cannot interfere in this matter." Shu Luyao stared at Cheron who had also flew after Qin Wentian. Their speed was one of the fastest here.
Cheron coldly glanced at him as a look of disdain flickered in his eyes.
Ghost Saber Mu Yan had also caught up. He flew over with a speed that was neither fast nor slow with his hands clasped behind his back. Nobody knew what he was thinking about.
Other than these geniuses, their subordinates also followed closely after.
Within the Driftsnow City many people raised their heads and stared at the skies. They only heard terrifying whistling sounds as numerous silhouettes zoomed through the air, which caused great shock to birth in their hearts. Who were these experts, what had happened?
Many experts in the city instantly took to the air as well, as they followed these people, wanting to see what the commotion was about.
The number of people got increasingly more, and not too long later, the entire airspace was crowded, the number of people was akin to a large army shuttling through the air.
However in truth, it hasn’t been too long since Qin Wentian departed the banquet. With their speeds, they arrived in front of the Nine Immortality Bells in the blink of an eye. Qin Wentian’s silhouette flickered as he directly stood in front of one of the towering ancient bells, bathing in its boundless runic light. His movements halted as he stood in the air. Behind him, the other experts all soon caught up, accompanied by gusts of wind that announced their arrival.
"Do you think you still can survive today?" Nion’s coldly arrogant gaze stared straight at Qin Wentian. Her voice contained a lofty arrogance, as sword qi from her body whistled, feeling as though it would erupt soon at any moment. Her icy eyes already treated Qin Wentian like one of the dead.
Cheron appeared beside Qin Wentian, he who was in the air was also similarly bathing in the runic light radiated by the towering bell. Staring at Nion, he coldly stated, "Try making a move against him if you dare to."
Nion’s countenance turned colder than frost. She glared at Cheron, this bastard actually still wanted to protect Qin Wentian even now.
"Making a move? He is dead for sure, I want his life today." Zurius of the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor icily commented, the experts behind him were as many as the clouds.
"This, is also what I wanted to say." Shu Luyao added.
Jiang Yan coldly laughed as he stared at Cheron. "Cheron, you won’t be able to protect him. Retreat now or you might even be accidentally injured by us."
"Brother Cheron, since this is their grudge, it would be better for you to let them handle it themselves. Why must you take the trouble to be involved?" Pei Xiao who recently arrived persuaded, his words causing Cheron’s eyes to flash. "Impudent, as someone from the King Manor, you should originally be taking a position of neutrality. Brother Tianwen has never offended your King Manor at all yet you actually had killing intent towards him? If you’ve done so merely to flatter and fawn on these people, your character is truly too disappointing."
"Brother Cheron, I’m merely persuading you out of goodwill." Pei Xiao’s countenance turned cold, after all, he was still a chosen of the King Manor and has pretty strong combat prowess. It was fine if Cheron didn’t give him face, yet he actually dared to respond so arrogantly.
"Are you all planning to bully one with many?" Ghost Saber Mu Yan slowly walked to the front and stood beside Cheron, his actions causing the expressions of others to stiffen. Their attention was fixed on Cheron and Mu Yan, Qin Wentian was no threat in their eyes, he was something that could be killed easily but Cheron and Mu Yan were different. The strength of the two was very high and they had powerful backgrounds supporting them. It wasn’t going to be so easy to deal with them.
"Cheron, Mu Yan. Thank you for your kind intentions, I appreciate it. But since these people are here for me, just let them come." Qin Wentian calmly stated, his words causing both Cheron and Mu Yan to start. After which, an expression of interest appeared on Mu Yan’s face as he contemplated Qin Wentian. A smile appeared on his face as he spoke, "Sure, since you put it this way. I, Mu Yan, won’t interfere then."
Cheron cast a deep glance at Qin Wentian, before shifting his eyes to the Nine Immortality Bells as a smile similarly appeared on his face. "Okay, I will believe in brother Tianwen."
After speaking, Cheron also retreated. Both he and Mu Yan became spectators, leaving Qin Wentian to face off against these people alone. Each and everyone of these individuals have cultivation bases higher than him.
However, Qin Wentian didn’t seem to mind at all. His eyes swept through the crowd, gleaming coldly as he spoke, "A bunch of presumptuous fellows that only knows how to bully those weaker. You guys believed that you are a tier higher than others but you don’t know how miserable all of you are. Self-proclaimed geniuses at the peak? In my eyes, all of you are nothing but a bunch of trash, what qualifications do you have to be so arrogant? If my cultivation base is equal to you all, I would annihilate all of you totally in the space of a single breath."
"How brazen." When the people present heard Qin Wentian’s words, their faces grew even colder. Nion involuntarily stepped out, her eyes flickering with frost as a row of swords stacked together behind her. With a command, these swords fanned out into seven, erupting forwards with terrifying might, one after another with each more powerful than the last.
When the first sword neared Qin Wentian, he already felt a torrential towering sword wave gushing over. With an intention of his will, boundless runic light danced frenziedly, as the runic inscriptions of heavens and earth circulated around him, transforming into a terrifying palm imprint which Qin Wentian slammed out with.
At the moment of impact, a thunderous boom echoed out, shaking the space here from the impact. However, the sword failed to penetrate the palm, but the second sword was already shooting over, and contained within it was an intense power packed with enough might to shake the heavens and earth.
The third sword, and fourth sword followed closely behind, even more powerful than the second one. Although Nion was arrogant, she had the strength to back up her words.
However at this moment, countless amounts of runic inscriptions flowed around Qin Wentian, transforming into an astral moat, blocking all attacks targeted at him. It gave off the sensation that even if the skies shattered, this astral moat would still be unbreachable. When the seventh sword blasted into it, the space trembled violently and cracks finally appeared on the moat as it dissipated. But Qin Wentian continued standing there leisurely with his hands clasped behind his back, his gaze calmly fixed on Nion who was in front of him.
"With that little bit of strength you possessed, I just need to control and maneuver the runes slightly to achieve a position of an invulnerable defense. You want to kill me? How?" Qin Wentian spoke, his voice booming out, reverberating the space around them. Nion and the others felt their expressions stiffen, glaring at Qin Wentian. This man before them could actually control the runic inscriptions radiated by the ancient bells for attack and defense? Was his attainment in divine inscriptions really that high?
"You believed that as long as you join a major power, you would be supreme, high up in the heavens. Although all of you can soar higher than the common crowd, you are nothing but crows and sparrows, only daring to compare yourselves with those who flew low. Yet, how would you know the ambitions of a roc?" Qin Wentian coldly spoke. The boundless runic inscriptions around him shimmered, Qin Wentian immersed himself within them and simply stood there watching them. Right now, his aura resembled a divinity of war as he spoke, "Don’t waste my time, just come at me together!"
