In the residence of Princess Changping, Princess Changping, the Scarlet Eye Marquis, Qin Wentian, Qing'er and the rest stood in the manor. They stared at the sky, only to see a beam of light shooting towards the direction of the emperor palace. That was the verdict sent by the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom.
"What intolerable bullying, to actually send the verdict to the emperor palace." The countenance of the Scarlet Eye Marquis was ice cold. "What kind of trash is Tenlan Hai? How dare he say that he wants the princess of our empire to marry him? This is simply preposterous."
"The drunkard has an ulterior motive. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom clearly knows that our empire will never agree to this. They are intentionally targeting us." The beautiful eyes of Princess Changping flickered with a cold light.
"I wonder how the Evergreen Kingdom will handle this." The Scarlet Eye Marquis stared in the direction of the emperor palace. After the turmoil in the Evergreen Kingdom, their strength was weakened. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was truly good at grasping the opportunity.
"I don't believe that the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom would dare to declare war against our empire." The daughter of Princess Changping, Ting`er, spoke in an unhappy tone.
"Who knows? Our Evergreen Kingdom is also not willing to declare war unless we have no other choice." The Scarlet Eye Marquis coldly spoke. At this moment, the nobility residences in the Evergreen Kingdom couldn't remain calm. At this moment, the conflicts between the various nobility residences were all gone. They were now united against a common enemy. They stared in the direction of the emperor palace, and many of the nobility residences even walked out, wanting to meet with the Evergreen Emperor.
However, there was no news from the emperor palace. Nobody knew what the Evergreen Emperor was thinking.
Nobody knew that at this moment, in an illusory space within the Evergreen Kingdom's emperor palace, Changqing The Great was currently playing chess with a dignified-looking middle-aged expert.
"Junior Brother Changqing, if this brat plays, you will die. How do you plan to resolve this?" The dignified-looking expert placed a chess piece down. He actually referred to Changqing The Great as his junior brother.
"Senior Brother, each and every step you take, encircling me. I have no choice but to fight to the death." The Changqing The Great said calmly. He placed his chess piece and destroyed half of his kingdom. However, his opponent suffered a great loss as well.
The dignified middle-aged man raised his head to look at Changqing The Great and said with a smile, "Junior Brother, you and I are both from the Tiandao Sacred Academy. Why are you so stubborn? There is obviously a better way. Why do you insist on doing this?"
As he spoke, the middle-aged man waved his hand, and the chessboard returned to its previous position. He took the piece that the Changqing The Great had placed, and placed it in another position. The placement of the piece was a compromise, and the situation was as vast as the sky and the sea.
"Senior Brother, what do you want?" Changqing The Great asked calmly.
"I have several descendants with outstanding talent. In the future, they might even be able to inherit my legacy. Junior brother, your beloved daughter, Qing`er, has extraordinary talent. With the guidance of both you and Matriarch Ji, why don't junior brother help her achieve her goal and allow the two of you to become a couple? That way, this situation would be easily resolved."
"Qing'er's personality is similar to mine. No one can force her to do things she doesn't want to do. As her father, I naturally wouldn't be willing to do so as well. In any case, I'm sure senior brother has other plans, right?" Changqing The Great calmly replied.
"Back then, I asked Dao Long to pay a visit. Junior Brother, you didn't give me any face at all." That dignified-looking expert continued. So it turned out that he was none other than a peak-level expert from the Eastern Regions, Zidi.
In the outside world, only a few people knew that they were from the same sect, and referred to each other as fellow apprentice brothers.
"Senior Brother, you are making things difficult for me. Although I'm not acquainted with that little fellow, he is after all a friend of Qing'er and came to my empire as a guest. If I hand him over to nephew Dao Long, how would others view me?" Changqing The Great calmly spoke.
"Junior Brother is right." Zidi smiled. "But what about now?"
Zidi stared at the chessboard. Changqing The Great slowly inclined his head, staring at Zidi only to hear Zidi calmly speaking, "When I do things, I'm never fickle. It was so in the past, now, and in the future, it will be the same."
"Since this is the case, Junior Brother, I'll bid my farewell then." Zidi smiled. After that, his body turned illusory as he directly vanished from sight.
Nobody knew of the conversation between Changqing The Great and Zidi. Regardless of the people from the Evergreen Kingdom or the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, they had no idea that just now, a single decision by Changqing The Great could affect the entire situation.
Outside the royal palace, in the Royal Capital, more and more experts gathered. In fact, there were even rumors that immortal emperors from the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom had arrived, preparing to welcome Princess Qing'er and Princess Liuli back to Skymist. For a period of time, the royal palace was in a state of panic, as though a storm was about to erupt.
Every day, there would be voices from the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, asking the Evergreen Kingdom to abide by the ruling of the immortal realms, and to abide by the agreement of the past.
But in the royal palace of the Evergreen Kingdom, the voices were saying that the ruling of the immortal realms was nothing more than a joke. Wanting to use the rules of the ancient era to control the matters of the Evergreen Kingdom was simply despicable.
Both sides had their own opinions. The people in the royal palace were all speculating that if the Evergreen Kingdom didn't agree, would the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom really start a war?
Countless pieces of news flew into the royal capital of the Evergreen Immortal Empire. In fact, there were even rumors saying that the Skymist Immortal Empire had already sent out their armies to attack the Evergreen Immortal Empire.
Today, the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom gave a deadline. One month later, they would bring their men to the royal palace of the Evergreen Kingdom to receive the princess. If the Evergreen Kingdom continued to ignore the ruling of the immortal realms, the various major powers would conduct a true judgment on the Evergreen Kingdom.
The atmosphere in the royal palace was extremely stifling. Everyone's nerves were stretched taut. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was simply too shameless. Did they really dare to start a war of the immortal realms?
Right now, the confidence of the Evergreen Kingdom's nobility was starting to waver. Right now, the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom had already joined forces with the experts of the various powers, and there was a possibility that they would launch an attack on the Evergreen Kingdom. There was only one month left.
Many people sought an audience with the Evergreen Emperor. However, the Evergreen Emperor refused to see anyone. Nobody knew what he was thinking.
Qing 'er was under great pressure. She had always been in Princess Changping's residence. Qin Wentian held onto Qing' er's hand as he spoke, "Don't worry, the Evergreen Emperor will definitely not hand you over."
"I know." Qing 'er replied. She wasn't worried that her father would hand her over to the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom. It was just that if the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom really launched an attack on the Evergreen Kingdom, the consequences would be extremely terrifying.
"Qing 'er." At this moment, a voice drifted over from behind the two of them, causing Qin Wentian to start. He actually didn't sense it at all when someone appeared beside him.
He abruptly turned and saw an extraordinary silhouette. This person casually stood there, as though he was one with the heavens and earth. Every step he took seemed to be one with the earth.
Qing 'er also had a look of surprise on her face when she saw the person who came. She glanced at Qin Wentian who was beside her, only to see her stretching out her hand and lightly holding onto Qin Wentian's hand. This caused a wave of warmth to surge in Qin Wentian's heart. At this moment, he naturally knew who this person was.
"Junior Qin Wentian pays my respects to the Evergreen Great Emperor." Qin Wentian bowed slightly. The person in front of him should be none other than the supreme existence of the Evergreen Kingdom, Changqing The Great.
Changqing The Great's countenance didn't fluctuate at all. He walked to the lakeside and stood with his hands clasped behind his back, as though he was quietly admiring the scenery here.
"Qin Wentian, born in a particle world, in the Sky Harmony City of the Chu Country of Grand Xia. His foster father, Qin Chuan, later became the Monarch of Grand Xia and joined the Battle Sword Sect. After that, he befriended the Medicine Sovereign and fought against the hegemon of this particle world, the Royal Sacred Lord.
Changqing The Great stared ahead. There were no ripples on the surface of the lake, but Qin Wentian's heart trembled slightly.
The Evergreen Immortal Emperor seemed to be very clear about everything about him.
However, he soon calmed his heart. How could the Changqing The Great not pay attention to his daughter? Very long ago, the Changqing The Great had already ordered his men to look for Qing 'er. At that time, Qing' er had always been with him. With regards to everything about him, how could the Changqing The Great not know everything about him?
In the immortal realms, other than Qing 'er, most probably only the Changqing The Great knew the most about him.
"After you entered the immortal realms, it's unknown when you befriended the Emperor Of Qianbian and headed to the Dongshengxian Gate to participate in the immortal banquet. You obtained the top position but rejected the offer to take him as your master. Hence, you were taken away by the Emperor Of Qianbian and others assumed that you were the disciple of the Emperor Of Qianbian. You obtained the top position in the Immortal Ascension Rankings and obtained Ancient Emperor Yi's secret art, God's Hand, defeating Zi Daoyang. In the City of Ancient Emperors, you befriended the Holy Maiden of the Namhwang Clan, Namhwang Yunxi. After that, you accepted the invitation of Namhwang Yunxi and headed to the Namhwang Clan to aid her in seizing the position of the Holy Maiden.
"In order to repay you, the Namhwang Clan told you that the location of the inheritance of God's Hand is located in the God Hand Mountain Manor of Emperor Yu. You headed there and entered the ancient mountain. After that, you successfully cultivated God's Hand and obtained Ancient Emperor Yi's inheritance."
Changqing The Great slowly spoke, recounting his experiences from when he was born in the Sky Harmony City until now. Other than those secrets that Changqing The Great didn't know, most probably, Changqing The Great knew everything about him like the back of his hand.
Qin Wentian and Qing 'er stared at the back view of Changqing The Great. Qing' er was still tightly holding onto Qin Wentian's hand, as though she was giving strength to Qin Wentian. It was as though she was telling him that no matter what, she would stand together with him.
"You, do you want to marry Qing 'er?"
Only to see Changqing The Great slowly turning around, his gaze landing on Qin Wentian. Under that imposing gaze, Qin Wentian felt a stifling pressure boring down on him. It was as though if he were to say anything wrong, the consequences would be extremely dire.
"I do."
Qin Wentian stared at Changqing The Great as he spat out a word. An even stronger pressure bore down on him, causing his entire body to perspire. When Qing 'er saw this scene, she took a step forward, standing in front of Qin Wentian. Her cold eyes stubbornly stared at Changqing The Great, as though she was silently resisting.
Changqing The Great stared at that stubborn gaze as he sighed in his heart. He then turned to Qin Wentian, "Making my daughter do this for you, I really want to kill you."
However, as the sound of his voice faded, the pressure from Qin Wentian abruptly vanished. Evidently, Changqing The Great didn't have any killing intent towards him.
