Jun Mengchen and Qin Wentian inclined their heads and stared at the air only to see Jun Mengchen laughing, "It feels like we are in the City of Ancient Emperors again. Those who came here should all be from major powers, right?"
"That must be the case." Qin Wentian nodded lightly. In the air, eight powerful white tigers could be seen pulling a chariot through the air, exuding a fearsome baleful aura. There was also an expert sitting on a young pixiu, exuding an aura of magnificence. There was also another expert sitting on a golden war chariot, being pulled towards the ancient palace of the Namhwang Clan.
"What a grand lineup," Jun Mengchen spoke in a low voice. "If senior brother knew this earlier, we would have been more imposing. Our aura is truly weak now."
Qin Wentian casually smiled. The immortal realms were boundlessly vast, and the southern domain was also extremely vast. There were many immortal emperors here and among them, the Namhwang Clan was one of the strongest. Hence, the aura of these experts from the other powers naturally wouldn't be weak.
Among immortal emperors, there were also differences in strength. The Southern Phoenix Matriarch was a powerful immortal emperor with a deeper foundation. Naturally, the Southern Phoenix Clan had countless years of foundation and naturally had more than one immortal emperor. This was the strength of an ancient clan.
Leaving aside the Namhwang Clan, Emperor Qianbian had said before that there were other immortal emperors under the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. And in the Evergreen Kingdom, the Green and White Emperors were the leaders.
Qin Wentian also knew of many descendants of immortal emperors in the City of Ancient Emperors. For example, Xuan Yang and Xuan Xing's father, the Xuan Emperor, and Xiao Lengyue's father, the Xiao Emperor. There were also many geniuses in the City of Ancient Emperors who were descendants of immortal emperors. These immortal emperors didn't have the foundation of the Namhwang Clan. Some of them established their own sects and sects, while some of them stayed alone in their own areas.
Therefore, Qin Wentian stood outside the Namhwang Clan and saw many shocking scenes. He knew that many of these people were Heaven's Chosen from Immortal Emperor level forces, and some were even descendants of Immortal Emperors.
That day, he met two people in the inn. One was Shen Yi from the Shen Clan. It was rumored that the Shen Clan had an immortal emperor and they were currently residing in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City. Their relationship with the Namhwang Clan had always been pretty good. The other person was clad in golden robes, he seemed to be a prince of an immortal empire.
"This time around, those invited to the banquet are all immortal-foundation experts." Qin Wentian glanced at the cultivation bases of the experts in the air. Excluding those guards, the young men in the lead were all at the immortal-foundation realm. The weakest among them was at the first-level of immortal-foundation, while the strongest among them was at the fourth-level. This was already a mid-stage immortal-foundation character and they all seemed more mature than the rest. Qin Wentian glanced at them.
The experts in the void stared at each other, their eyes shining with sharpness, vaguely showing signs of fighting.
"Big brother Qin, why don't I revert to my original form and bring you in?" Purgatory spoke in a low voice. When she saw the auras of the experts in the surroundings, she faintly felt that Qin Wentian's aura was too weak in front of them. She wanted to help Qin Wentian regain some face. With the Purgatory Vermilion Bird as her mount, she wouldn't be inferior to anyone else.
"No need." Qin Wentian smiled and shook his head. This lass would always think of him no matter what. She didn't feel that she would feel wronged at all.
They had already arrived at the entrance of the Namhwang Clan. The experts all landed on the ground and reported their clan names. The guards immediately allowed them in. When Qin Wentian walked over, a guard blocked his path. Qin Wentian waved his hand and an invitation card appeared. The guard glanced at it and similarly allowed Qin Wentian to enter.
Within the Namhwang Clan, there were many beautiful maids standing to the left and right. These maids all exuded extraordinary auras and when they saw the three of them entering, they immediately stepped forward to lead the way. When Qin Wentian's group of three entered, one of the maids immediately stepped forward and smiled gently, "Young master, young miss, please follow me."
"Many thanks." Qin Wentian smiled and nodded. He followed the ancient path and entered the Southern Phoenix Clan.
"Young master, what is your surname?" The maid smiled at Qin Wentian as she asked.
"Qin."
"Young Master Qin's demeanor is extraordinary. I wonder which Holy Maiden invited you here?" The maid smiled as she casually chatted with Qin Wentian. Her voice was clear and melodious, causing those who heard it to feel comfortable.
"Namhwang Yunxi." Qin Wentian smiled as he replied.
The maid was clearly startled. Her beautiful eyes surveyed Qin Wentian as she smiled, "Young Master Qin is truly extraordinary."
"Why? Is it strange for Namhwang Yunxi to invite me?" Qin Wentian asked in surprise.
"Holy Maiden Yunxi is highly regarded in our Namhwang Clan. Furthermore, this immortal banquet is also held for her. She can be considered the main character of this immortal banquet. Everyone wants to know who Holy Maiden Yunxi will invite. Who would have thought that this servant would be so lucky to meet Young Master Qin first?" The maid laughed softly, her tone was pleasant to the ears.
"In that case, you're going to be noticed again. This isn't a good thing." Qin Wentian shrugged his shoulders.
"Young Master Qin is truly humorous. Many people want to be invited by Holy Maiden Yunxi, but they don't even have the chance." The maid pretended to roll her eyes at Qin Wentian. Because of her beauty, even though she was a maid, no one would feel offended. Qin Wentian silently praised her. Even the maids of the Namhwang Clan were so powerful.
"Are there a lot of holy maidens in the Namhwang Clan?" Qin Wentian curiously asked.
"Not many. Every hundred years, the Namhwang Clan would select thirty-six outstanding individuals to become the holy maidens of the Namhwang Clan. Within a hundred years, if these holy maidens fail to step onto the immortal path, their qualifications as holy maidens would be stripped away." The maid didn't hide anything from Qin Wentian. She continued, "Also, after a hundred years, the holy maidens would have to undergo a test. One of them would be chosen to become the core of this batch of holy maidens. The other holy maidens would act as dao protectors and this holy maiden would be known as the Holy Successor. The other holy maidens would be known as the Dao Protector Holy Maidens. The Holy Successor is a candidate to become the future Southern Phoenix Matriarch."
"Understood." Qin Wentian nodded. For a clan like this that had existed for countless years, they naturally had their own set of rules. Only the most outstanding person would be able to become the Holy Successor. Also, the Holy Successor would have to compete against the other holy maidens. There was only one Southern Phoenix Matriarch.
But in the Namhwang Clan, once one became the Holy Successor, their status would instantly rise to another level. Their status would be extremely lofty and they could even command many immortal kings of the Namhwang Clan. This was a matter of honor and glory.
"The popularity of Holy Maiden Yunxi is very high." The maid smiled at Qin Wentian. She cast a deep glance at Qin Wentian, as though wanting to see how extraordinary Qin Wentian was exactly. Since Namhwang Yunxi invited him here, it was clear that she regarded him very highly.
Qin Wentian smiled but didn't say anything. As they spoke, they already arrived at a spacious area. There were many serving maids here, preparing for the immortal banquet. Many geniuses stood in different directions and chatted. These people who were invited here were all extraordinary, the majority of them were elites from the Southern Region of the immortal realms.
Qin Wentian also saw a few familiar figures. Rong Xiao, the young man who asked him for Purgatory, Shen Yi and the golden-robed young man, he met them before in the inn.
Shen Yi also saw Qin Wentian and the others. His gaze landed on Purgatory as he walked over and smiled at Qin Wentian, "So the three of you are also here to attend the banquet of the Namhwang Clan. My name is Shen Yi of the Shen Clan. I wonder how I should address you all?"
"Qin Wentian, my junior brother Jun Mengchen, my younger sister Purgatory." Qin Wentian spoke.
"Isn't she your servant? Why did she become your younger sister?" A light laughter rang out. Rong Xiao also saw Qin Wentian and the others, and he walked over.
"The last time we met, I heard Purgatory referring to you as her master. Does Brother Shen know them as well?" Rong Xiao asked.
"I met them once before." Shen Yi nodded lightly.
"So this is the case. Does Brother Shen know that this maiden is a demonic beast? Her true form is a Purgatory Vermilion Bird." Rong Xiao stared at Purgatory as he spoke. After that, he turned to Qin Wentian, "My words before still stand. If you are willing to trade, you can state your price."
"Is that so? I'm afraid I can't afford it." Qin Wentian calmly spoke.
"Hehe, just a mere demonic beast. Even if it's a saint beast, how could I not be able to afford it?" Rong Xiao calmly spoke.
"Sure, I'll use you to trade for it. In the future, you will be my servant, and I will order you around." Qin Wentian calmly spoke. A moment later, Rong Xiao's smile froze as his gaze turned sharp. The two of them stared at each other.
"You want to use a demonic beast as a servant to trade for me? Are you trying to humiliate me? "Rong Xiao Coldly spoke.
"You are the one who wants to humiliate yourself. In fact, in my eyes, even if there were ten of you, you still wouldn't be qualified to be mentioned in the same breath as Purgatory. Who the hell do you think you are?" Qin Wentian unyieldingly spoke. Both of their words were filled with sharpness, instantly attracting the attention of many. Those geniuses all had smiles on their faces as they stared at the scene before them with interest.
"This man seems extremely unfamiliar." Everyone stared at Qin Wentian as they mused. They had no idea who invited him here.
"Sir, your words are so rude and disrespectful. Would there really be a holy maiden who would invite you to participate in this immortal banquet?" Rong Xiao coldly spoke.
"If people respect me, I will respect them. As for who invited me, what does that have to do with you?" Qin Wentian retorted. Rong Xiao laughed, "Fine, I will wait."
As he spoke, he walked to the side. At this moment, from different directions of the Namhwang Clan, numerous silhouettes could be seen walking over. Each and every one of them was extremely beautiful, exuding an ethereal aura. All of them were celestial maidens!
