The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was a neighboring land of the Evergreen Kingdom. It had countless cities and a vast territory. It was an extremely ancient Celestial Kingdom with a terrifying foundation.
When the Evergreen Kingdom was in turmoil, the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom intervened and affected the fate of the Evergreen Kingdom. That civil war consumed the power of the Evergreen Kingdom, and countless experts fell. In the end, the Changqing The Great won, but it was also a pyrrhic victory. For the Evergreen Kingdom, that civil war was definitely a period of history that was unbearable to recall.
After that civil war in the Evergreen Kingdom, the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom withdrew its hand and no longer interfered with the internal affairs of the Evergreen Kingdom. But now, in the imperial city of the Evergreen Kingdom, a diplomatic mission from the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom arrived.
This diplomatic mission did not directly enter the imperial palace of the Evergreen Kingdom. When they stepped into the imperial city of the Evergreen Kingdom, the entire imperial city was shaken. In the Evergreen Kingdom Kingdom Palace, there was a great uproar. Even the Changqing The Great was alarmed. There were often nobility figures who met the Great Emperor to discuss this matter.
Everyone understood that the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom did not come with good intentions.
They were both Celestial Kingdoms, and as neighboring countries, the two Celestial Kingdoms had countless conflicts in the long river of history. Now, the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was gradually gaining the upper hand in the civil war of the Evergreen Kingdom. How could the people of the Evergreen Kingdom not understand the ambition of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom? They could not wait to nibble away at the Evergreen Kingdom bit by bit, and turn it into the territory of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom.
This time, they must have come with ulterior motives.
Moreover, the imperial palace of the Evergreen Kingdom had already heard that there were several important figures in the delegation from the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom that came to the Evergreen Kingdom this time, including a few princes of the Celestial Nation.
On this day, the diplomatic corps of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom presented a letter of credence to the imperial palace of the Evergreen Kingdom. They sent it to the imperial palace of the Evergreen Kingdom and directly sent it to the hands of the Changqing The Great.
In the great hall of the Imperial Palace of the Evergreen Kingdom, the Changqing The Great sat on the True Dragon Throne in the great hall, looking at the letter of credence sent by the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom. Although his expression was still calm, a destructive force appeared in his hands. In an instant, the letter of credence from the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was destroyed.
"The Sky Mist Diplomatic Group has come to visit. We hope that the Changqing The Great will fulfill the promise made by the Celestial Country in the past." An ethereal voice suddenly rang out. It was as if a wisp of green smoke had flowed out from the destroyed letter. This ethereal voice rang out across the entire hall.
"IMPUDENT!"
Many nobility in the great hall stood up with ashen expressions. One of the nobility spoke, "That year, the scoundrel made a promise with the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, borrowing the strength of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom to interfere in the affairs of our Celestial Country. It's one thing that we didn't settle this debt with the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, but they actually dared to mention the Celestial Country again?"
"That's right, the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom. How arrogant." Another nobility spoke in a Cold tone, causing many nobility to have expressions of rage on their faces.
The Changqing The Great waved his hands and spoke, "There's no need to say anything more. Since they're here, just receive them well. As for the promise, I really want to see what they're going to say."
"Yes." Everyone nodded. This matter would most probably cause quite a storm. The imperial palace wouldn't be able to calm down in a short period of time.
...
In the Immortal Qianbian Gate, Qin Wentian was cultivating in peace. Although it was extremely difficult to raise his immortal-foundation realm, Qin Wentian's heart was incomparably resolute. He did his best, wanting to raise his cultivation base in the shortest amount of time possible. In the vast immortal realms, immortal-foundation experts might be able to live a carefree life. But if one wanted to become an expert and stand shoulder to shoulder with those experts in the immortal realms, they had to step into the immortal king realm.
Only immortal kings would have the authority to speak in the immortal realms. They could become hegemons of an area and establish a tyrannical power. They could even control many cities and become the king of a prefecture.
Today, Qin Wentian ended his cultivation. When he saw Mo Qingcheng in contemplation, he couldn't help but to smile, "Qingcheng, what are you thinking about?"
"Some questions regarding cultivation." Mo Qingcheng turned and smiled when she saw Qin Wentian walking over.
"You can ask me. If I don't understand, you can consult Senior White and the others." Qin Wentian walked to the side of Mo Qingcheng and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Mhm." Mo Qingcheng nodded. "Oh ya, the Taishan Immortal King sent someone over a few days ago. He said that after you finished your cultivation, you should head over to his place. He seems to have something to discuss with you."
"Okay." Qin Wentian nodded. "Let me accompany you for a chat first. I will head over tomorrow."
"You should go first. Since senior Taishan Immortal King is looking for you, it must be an important matter." Mo Qingcheng shook her head, her beautiful eyes staring at Qin Wentian.
"Alright then, I will be right back." Qin Wentian pinched Mo Qingcheng's beautiful face. After that, he headed in the direction of the immortal palace of the Taishan Immortal King.
Qin Wentian found the Taishan Immortal King and bowed, "Senior is looking for me?"
"Mhm, there's something I should tell you." The Taishan Immortal King nodded.
"Senior, please speak." Qin Wentian replied.
"You are still young and you came from a particle world. I'm sure you aren't very familiar with the history of the Evergreen Kingdom. Let me give you a simple explanation." The Taishan Immortal King spoke. "Back then, a civil war erupted in the Evergreen Kingdom. The Changqing The Great fought against another person for the authority to rule the empire. Both sides had many supporters and the empire was in a state of turmoil. In this turmoil, there was another empire that participated. The neighboring empire of the Evergreen Kingdom, the powerful Tenlan Heaven Kingdom. They supported the opponent of the Changqing The Great."
Qin Wentian quietly listened. He truly didn't understand much about this war, but he did know that Qing'er was sent to a particle world because of this. From this, one could very well imagine how severe the situation the Changqing The Great was facing back then must have been. If not, he wouldn't have hidden his daughter, Qing'er, in a particle world and even cut off all contact with her. This way, even if the Changqing The Great died, Qing'er would still be able to live on safely.
As for the details of the war, it was naturally impossible for him to know.
"The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom has an ancient history and is extremely powerful, far surpassing the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures. Back then, in order to gain the support of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, the opponent of the Changqing The Great once promised that within a thousand years, he would marry the most outstanding princess of the Evergreen Kingdom to the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom. In fact, back then, he even sent some of the princesses of the younger generations to the Heavenly Mist Kingdom. This means that the clan of the opponent of the Changqing The Great hasn't been completely annihilated yet. They have married into the royal clan of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom."
Qin Wentian was startled. Such an action would cause others to despise him. But he could also foresee that in the war between the Changqing The Great and the opponent, both sides had no confidence in winning.
"Now, the people of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom have arrived at the royal city of the Evergreen Kingdom and presented the letter of credence, wanting the Evergreen Kingdom to fulfill the agreement." The Taishan Immortal King calmly spoke. However, Qin Wentian's gaze froze. His eyes gradually narrowed as a cold light flickered within.
"This wasn't a promise made by the Changqing The Great. What qualifications does the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom have to make the Changqing The Great fulfill the agreement?" Qin Wentian asked. In an instant, he thought of Qing'er. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom definitely had ill intentions.
"Although that's the case, the opponent of the Changqing The Great also had the authority to speak in the empire. He represented the Evergreen Kingdom to make the agreement. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom wanted the Evergreen Kingdom to fulfill the agreement. Although it's a little unreasonable, it can be considered as having a good reason to do so." The Taishan Immortal King continued, "I'm afraid this matter is disadvantageous to the Evergreen Kingdom. Not only that, it would also affect Princess Qing'er."
"Qing'er has entered the tutelage of Ji Di and is now cultivating under Ji Di. Ji Di should stand on the side of Qing'er and the Changqing The Great." Qin Wentian spoke. He naturally had an understanding of Qing`er's master. Matriarch Ji was proficient in spatial energy and was an extremely powerful immortal emperor character.
"I know this point. However, there's one more thing that I don't know if you are clear about." The Taishan Immortal King continued, "Back then, the son of Zidi, Zi Daolong, once went to the royal palace of the Evergreen Kingdom to pay a visit to the Changqing The Great. Although I don't know what happened exactly, during that period of time, you were coincidentally in the royal palace of the Evergreen Kingdom. Zi Daolong should have gone there to ask for you but failed. This matter might cause Zidi to be unhappy with the Changqing The Great. Now, Zidi also has subordinates in the royal palace of the Evergreen Kingdom."
Qin Wentian's eyes flashed. He didn't expect that the Changqing The Great had protected him back then. With regards to this father of Qing'er whom he had never met before, Qin Wentian actually had a good impression of him. Most probably, Qin Wentian also loved Qing'er very much, right?
"Let me tell you one more thing. In the past, the relationship between Zidi and the Changqing The Great has always been pretty good. In fact, there's even a rumor saying that the two of them might be from the same sect. It's just that there's a slight difference in their ages and they were in different eras. Zidi and the Changqing The Great could be considered to have some sort of friendship, at least on the surface," the Taishan Immortal King continued. Qin Wentian recalled the words Zi Daoyang had said to Qing'er in the past. Seems like it wasn't a lie.
Zi Daoyang could be considered to have died an unjust death. He must have been plotted against by Mo Xie.
"Many thanks for senior's information." Qin Wentian bowed. The Taishan Immortal King was a direct subordinate of the Heaven Changing Monarch, and he naturally knew quite a lot of information. Seems like he was paying close attention to the Evergreen Kingdom.
"What are your thoughts?" the Taishan Immortal King asked.
"I wish to make a trip to the Evergreen Kingdom," Qin Wentian replied.
"Sure." The Taishan Immortal King had a smile on his face, as though he had long known that Qin Wentian would do this. This caused Qin Wentian to feel a little bewildered. He didn't know what the Taishan Immortal King meant by this.
"I will send someone to accompany you there." The Taishan Immortal King smiled. "We will use the identity of the Immortal Qianbian Gate to pay a visit to the Evergreen Kingdom."
"This …" Qin Wentian stared at the Taishan Immortal King, only to see the Taishan Immortal King patting Qin Wentian on his shoulder as he smiled. "I really hope that you can marry Princess Qing'er. In that case, both the Evergreen Kingdom and Ji Di would have a deep connection with our Immortal Qianbian Gate. Haha."
"Senior, you too!" Qin Wentian was speechless. The Taishan Immortal King laughed. "Why? If it wasn't for the fact that the Namhwang Clan's Holy Maiden doesn't marry outside of the clan, I would have thought that you might be able to kidnap Namhwang Yunxi as well."
Qin Wentian was completely speechless. The Taishan Immortal King's thoughts were truly ruthless. If he really did that, then the Immortal Qianbian Gate, the Evergreen Kingdom, Ji Di, and the Namhwang Clan would have a miraculous connection. Such a power would be sufficient to shock many experts in the immortal realms. No wonder the Taishan Immortal King encouraged him to go to the Southern Phoenix Immortal City back then. It seemed like he harbored evil intentions!
