Ancient Godly Monarch
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Countless people came here to spectate this battle at the very peak. Finally, Qin Wentianâs magnificence knew no bounds, no one could rival him. It was just that there were still many people who doubted if he could become a supreme character that also stands at the peak of the immortal realms.
Although many experts in the city had conflicts with each other, no one else was like Qin Wentian, who repeatedly offended so many major powers in addition to his earlier grudge of the eastern regions. It was unknown how many wanted him to die. Even in this city, there were already plenty of people who sought to kill him. It was just that none of them dared to act now and chose to remain hidden.
From the three perspectives of immortal, devil, demon, this time around, the devil cultivators didnât really act. Demons suffered the most losses because all of them fought against Qin Wentian and were defeated. After that, the supreme character of the Beast God Sect even hunted that supreme nether demon.
Staring at the arrogant figure in the air, many people had different thoughts in their hearts. There were too many people in the City of Ancient Emperors who knew of Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian didnât leave immediately. His eyes flickered as he stared at certain directions. Occasionally, cold gleams could be seen in his eyes, and those who were stared at by him, all felt their hearts trembling.
Among these people, many of them tried to make a move against Qing`er when his identity was exposed. That void beast wanted to use Qing`er to threaten him, causing the hearts of many to stir with greed. Although they didnât really act it out, they had the impulse to do so and Qin Wentian noticed it. Whatâs more, many of these people had grudges with him.
Hence, right now he was considering if he should kill them all or not.
After contemplating for some time, Qin Wentian didnât act immediately. His figure flashed and he arrived beside Qing`er.
Qing`er bitterly glanced at him. Although she had seen Qin Wentianâs unparalleled strength, she was still worried for him. After exiting the City of Ancient Emperors, Qin Wentian would definitely face a calamity, a great one at that.
However, she didnât say anything much. She quietly walked to his side and held his hand. Regardless of what calamity he had to face, she would endure it together with him.
Qin Wentian could sense the warmth in Qing`erâs hand. He gently smiled at her and stroked her hair, everything was clear even without needing words.
âSenior brother Qin, this time around you are truly in the limelight. I wonder how many people will be jealous of you and how many beauties would throw themselves into your arms.â Jun Mengchen walked over as he laughed. This caused Qin Wentian to glare at him. Jun Mengchen sneakily glanced at Qing`er before rubbing his head, âNaturally, none of them would be comparable to sis-in-law.â
More and more figures sped over, appearing beside Qin Wentian as they transmitted their voices, âLord.â
Qin Wentian glanced at them, they were none other than the experts from the Battle Saint Tribe who came to the City of Ancient Emperors for training. This time, they came here to observe the battle too, but they didnât expect to run into their Saint Lord, Qin Wentian, here.
Right now, they finally understood why Qin Wentian could become their Saint Lord. Back then when he first entered their realm, he had just broken through to the immortal king level. But now, he was already unrivaled in the entire immortal king realm.
âNot bad, all of you have great improvements.â Qin Wentian smiled at them. All of them were present, not one of them have fallen and their strengths had clearly improved.
The experts from the Battle Saint Tribe were proficient in forming many battle formations. As long as they stuck together, it wouldnât be an easy task to deal with them.
âWentian gege.â A clear voice drifted over. The judiciary priestess Bai Qing walked over. She took off the judiciary crown on her head as her inky black hair flowed down like a waterfall. Her lanky figure and her pure and flawless countenance, was truly a beautiful sight to behold.
âLittle Qing.â Qin Wentian smiled and walked up, rubbing her on her head with a gentleness in his eyes.
Bai Qing smiled sweetly. That year after Qin Wentian left the Myriad Devil Islands, she personally sent Qin Wentian away. At that time, she believed that it would be extremely difficult for them to meet again in this lifetime.
Upon seeing Qing`er walking over, Bai Qing turned to face her. A strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes, after that, when she saw Qin Wentianâs gentle look in her eyes when he looked at Qing`er, she also called out, âElder sister Qing`er.â
When they were in the particle world, she had once participated with Qin Wentian and Qing`er in the Heavenly Fate Rankings, and were acquainted with her.
âMhm, little sister Qing, our names are truly similar.â Qing`er who had always been solemn and cold, actually smiled at Bai Qing. She lightly spoke, âYour big brother Wentian always mentioned about you. He does miss you alot.â
âWentian gege, is this true?â Bai Qing had a radiant smile on her face.
âOf course itâs true. Iâve always missed my little sister.â Qin Wentianâs skin grew thicker as he laughed loudly. It was true that he had missed her, but he had never mentioned Bai Qing before Qing`er at all. However, although Qing`er told a lie, it was a white one and caused Qin Wentian to feel warmth in his heart. Qing`er was trying to accept the people around him, taking the responsibility of a wife. Considering her personality, it might be quite difficult for her to do so.
Jun Mengchen, who was at the side, kept rolling his eyes. The two beauties stood around Qin Wentian, both of them were extremely pleasing to the eye but for some reason, as an outsider he kept feeling as though the atmosphere was somewhat strange.
âQin Wentian.â An icy voice suddenly rang out. Qin Wentian turned about only to see the disciple of Matriarch Ji, Immortal King Junyi, glaring at him. He couldnât help but to smile awkwardly as he greeted, âImmortal King Junyi.â
The disciples of Matriarch Ji also turned to Junyi, feeling worried that she might not be able to think straight. Even Qing`er felt a little nervous.
âHaha...â But at this moment, Immortal King Junyi suddenly laughed. A beautiful smile was on her face as she faced Qin Wentian. âYou truly have swindled us badly. Clearly, your little lover is before your eyes yet you still act as though you are a secret admirer of hers. Arenât you tired?â
Everyone set their hearts at ease when they saw Immortal King Junyiâs attitude. Qin Wentian also laughed, âIt canât be helped. If my identity was exposed then, I would be killed just from the stares of my enemies alone. You should be able to understand after seeing the situation today. If it wasnât for the fact that I have enough strength, I would have definitely died today.â
âHmph, since this is the case, I shall force myself to forgive you then. In the future, you are not allowed to bully my junior sister Qing`er or I shall not spare you.â Immortal Junyi skipped over all the awkward matters before and smiled while she teased Qin Wentian.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHow would I dare to? It would be wonderful if Qing`er doesnât bully me.â Qin Wentian shrugged, glancing at Qing`er. When Qing`er saw that her senior sister was okay, her smile grew even more radiant after that.
âAlright, we should leave soon. Iâm not really used to so many people in the surroundings staring at me.â Qin Wentian laughed. Only now did they realize that all the spectators who had yet to leave, were staring in their direction. Qin Wentian was simply too dazzling, attracting the attention of others.
Everyone nodded. After that, they all soared into the air and left the area. The spectators glanced at their backs, having a thousand thoughts in their minds. This unrivalled character in the City of Ancient Emperors, would he live long enough to ascend to the very peak of the immortal realms?
Most probably, things wouldnât be so easy.
Xu Qingyao was among the spectators. Her beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentianâs back as she sighed silently in her heart. The Saber-Sword Immortal King was actually Qin Wentian!
All the spectators respectively departed. The experts from the Violet Mountain gathered together, exchanging mutual glances. One of them then spoke, âMasterâs orders seem impossible to complete. What should we do?â
âSince he is Qin Wentian, this grudge between him and our master has already been festering for a long time. Since it is impossible for us to kill him in the City of Ancient Emperors, we can only report this information up to master.â A person replied. The others nodded as all of them started to leave the area.
The other spectators also left. Although many people in the city wanted to kill Qin Wentian, none of them truly dared to act.
Qin Wentian and his group came to the peak of an ancient mountain. Many people gathered here, creating a very lively atmosphere.
Qin Wentian glanced at his good friends beside him, feeling gratified in his heart.
âQin Wentian, this time around youâve offended most of the major powers. The moment you exit the city, there would definitely be a large number of immortal emperors wanting to kill you.â A maiden from the Southern Phoenix Clan reminded. Back then, Qin Wentian already created a gigantic storm of commotion in the eastern regions. It was only because there were powerful emperors backing him, resulting in the storm of commotion being resolved. But now, even if he had some emperors backing him, their strength would definitely be insufficient. Even if their Southern Phoenix Matriarch stood behind him, it would still be useless.
âMhm.â Qin Wentian nodded.
âSenior brother, before this there were many who wished to kill you here. But after your identity was exposed, many people actually prepared to act against sis-in-law to threaten you. After the battle, why didnât you look for them and take revenge?â Jun Mengchen asked.
âIâve considered this matter. Since we have already offended them, it would be good if we execute them all, saving ourselves future trouble by weakening the strength of the major powers. However, doing so would surely completely enraged all the major powers and might implicate the innocent people around me. Hence, I decided to spare them for now.â Qin Wentian glanced at his friends around him. The eyes of the others flashed as they sighed in their hearts. At this moment, how could they fail to understand what Qin Wentian was referring to?
He formed many grudges but Qin Wentian still hoped that if his enemies wanted to do something, they would set their targets solely onto him and wouldnât implicate the people around him. Hence, he decided to spare those people. If not, if Qin Wentian didnât give a damn, he would surely make rivers of blood flow in the City of Ancient Emperors. At that time, it would be unknown how many immortal kings would die.
âItâs alright. I didnât make a move against them and at the very least, inside the city, no one else would dare to make a move against you guys.â Qin Wentian smiled. âWe shall spare them temporarily. If I really die after we leave the city, things canât be helped. But if I can survive the calamity, these people need not dream about surviving any longer.â
The expressions of everyone turned solemn, they could sense a sorrow in Qin Wentianâs words. Clearly, Qin Wentian himself also understood that the chances of him surviving the incoming calamity was close to nil.
âSenior brother, you will be fine for sure. We still have to conquer the immortal realms together and ascend to the peak.â Jun Mengchen spoke. Qin Wentian nodded and smiled, âThatâs right, we have to do that together.â
âMe as well, me as well!â Little Rascal stretched his head out and spoke in a juvenile voice. Qin Wentian directly aimed a slap at him, âIf you know things are serious, hurry up and work hard at your cultivation. Stop fooling around and taking advantage of poor innocent females every day or I might feel the itch to cripple your privates.â
Little Rascal trembled and leapt towards Qing`er, standing on her shoulder. His little paw then slapped himself reassuring on his chest, âYou almost frightened this baobao to death.â
âHahaha...â Everyone started laughing when they saw this comical scene, dulling the worry in their hearts.
Many people then started to silently make a vow in their hearts. They had to grow stronger and not allow Qin Wentian to come to any harm. But when they thought about the major powers of the immortal realms who stood at the peak, they couldnât help but to feel how tiny and inconsequential they were. What they needed now was time!
