Qin Wentian stared at the teasing smile on Juyu's face. He couldn't help but to ask, "Why is the third princess looking for me?"
"How would I know? Maybe she likes you." Juyu had an interesting smile on her face, causing Qin Wentian to glare at her.
"I was the last-ranked general before this and didn't have any chance to come into contact with the central devil palace. The third princess is the daughter of the devil king, her status naturally isn't something a general can compare to. It's just that, other than the devil king and the devil lord, all the external matters are handled by the devil generals. For the lower-ranked generals, the people of the central devil palace might not care about them, but for the top-ranked ones, they would naturally pay attention to them."
"And not long ago, you killed Zong Yan and replaced him. If you say the people of the central devil palace aren't curious about you, I don't believe it."
Juyu slowly spoke. "I've never met the third princess before and it's not easy for me to evaluate her. But since she wants to meet with you, this is an opportunity for you. Just head there now."
"What opportunity?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Don't you want to find someone? Although you made use of the strength of our devil palace and Lu Xuejia, if you want to obtain the full support of the entire devil sect, you still need the help of the central devil palace." Juyu spoke.
"That's true. Come with me then." Qin Wentian stared outside as he spoke.
"The third princess said she wants to meet with you, but she didn't say she wants to meet with me. I will bring you to the entrance of the central devil palace. You can enter by yourself. Without the order, I naturally won't be able to enter." Juyu knew her own limitations. Once, as a devil general, she had no way to enter the devil palace. Now that she was only a protector, she naturally wouldn't be able to do so.
"Right." Qin Wentian nodded lightly. After that, the two of them stepped out of the devil palace and soared through the air, flying towards the central devil palace.
"Why would the personal attendant of the devil king be here to pass a message for the princess?" On the way, Qin Wentian asked.
"Although the personal attendants of the devil king have a chance to meet the devil king, given the strength and status of the devil king, would he need a personal attendant by his side all the time? Attendants are just another identity. For those who can stay in the Central Devil Palace, it's only natural for them to befriend princes and princesses. "Juyu spoke. The two of them continued on their way, arriving at the entrance of the Central Devil Palace.
"Third-ranked devil general Qin Wentian, I'm here on the orders of the third princess to meet with him. Please lead the way." Juyu walked up and spoke to the guard.
One of the guards glanced at Qin Wentian and said, "Lord Devil General, please follow me."
Qin Wentian walked up as Juyu nodded to him. After that, Qin Wentian followed the guards into the devil sect.
Along the way, Qin Wentian finally arrived at the residence of the Third Princess of the Demon King.
The style of the third princess' residence was completely different from the devil general's residence. It exuded a sense of elegance and beauty, somewhat similar to immortal-ranked residences in the immortal realms. Small bridges, flowing streams, pavilions, all of them exuded spiritual qi.
Qin Wentian followed the guards of the third princess' residence. After that, he saw several people sitting by the lake, drinking tea and chatting.
These people all exuded extraordinary auras. Qin Wentian even saw the first and second devil generals. Other than them, there seemed to be the fourth devil general as well.
Evidently, the third princess didn't invite him alone. However, the third princess had already met the other devil generals before and this time around, she mainly wanted to see him, Qin Wentian.
Other than the three devil generals, there were also several other young experts. Their auras weren't inferior to the devil generals. The attendant from before was also among them.
Qin Wentian turned his gaze to the woman sitting in the lead. Although she was a princess of the devil sect, she was clad in a long white dress and exuded a graceful aura. Although she was sitting there, one could faintly see her long and slender legs as well as her beautiful figure. If she stood up, she would definitely be a beauty with an extremely good figure.
Her countenance contained hints of beauty, but other than that, there was also the imposing aura of an expert from the devil sect, causing people to feel a sense of distance from her.
Qin Wentian's arrival was naturally known by these people. However, their gazes didn't shift as they continued to chat and laugh. Only the attendant from before coldly glanced in the direction of Qin Wentian as a mocking expression appeared on his face. Before this, he personally went to invite Qin Wentian but Qin Wentian actually gave him such an attitude. Now, he wanted to see what Qin Wentian would do.
"Excuse me, who is the princess?" Qin Wentian asked despite already knowing the answer. A princess of the devil sect, there was no need for him to keep waiting.
"Impudent!" That attendant berated. He then turned his gaze to Qin Wentian, "Can't you see the princess is currently chatting with the other lords? Just wait there and wait for her to be received."
"I, Qin Wentian, still have matters to attend to. If the princess is busy, Qin Wentian will pay a visit another day."
Qin Wentian wasn't angered. His voice was calm as he turned and left, his actions causing the attendant to stiffen.
"Audacious!" A cold voice rang out. Qin Wentian halted his steps. The fourth-ranked general, Pang Huang, coldly spoke, "The princess invited you here, yet you dare to be so rude?"
"If I didn't remember wrongly, you are only the fourth-ranked general, right? When speaking to the third-ranked general, it's best to be more polite." Qin Wentian spoke with his back facing Pang Huang. "If not, I don't mind paying a visit to your devil palace."
Pang Huang's expression stiffened. In truth, it was rare for him to meet the third princess. Today was a rare opportunity and he naturally wanted to perform well. Hence, he spoke out to berate her. Who would have thought that Qin Wentian's words would be so sharp and impolite?
As the fourth-ranked general, his strength was naturally inferior to Zong Yan. But this man before him was someone who could kill Zong Yan.
"Arrogant enough." The second-ranked devil general, the Blood Butcher, laughed.
The third princess inclined her head, staring in the direction of Qin Wentian as she smiled, "General Qin, there's no need to be angry. I'm the one who invited you here. Come over and take a seat."
Only then did Qin Wentian turn, only to see the eyes of the third princess gleaming with a bright light. In the Blackstone Devil Sect, Qin Wentian had only met a few females before. Among them, Lu Xuejia's beauty and aura were both extraordinary. But in terms of pure beauty, this third princess was even more outstanding compared to Lu Xuejia. Also, she wasn't just purely cold, she also exuded a lofty aura.
"Many thanks Princess." Qin Wentian bowed and walked up. The third princess pointed to a seat beside her and spoke to Qin Wentian, "General Qin, please sit here."
As the sound of her voice faded, the eyes of many here gleamed with sharpness. Sit beside the princess?
Qin Wentian could sense the gazes of everyone. He furrowed his brows. Such treatment might not be a good thing.
"I and everyone here are old acquaintances. The main purpose of me coming here today is to meet with Devil General Qin. I'm sure everyone wouldn't mind, right?" The Third Princess stared at the crowd, her smiling eyes exuding a sense of majesty.
The status of the third princess was extremely high. Even if the people here were unhappy in their hearts, they wouldn't have any objections. Let alone when the princess said this. They could only snort coldly in their hearts as they stared at Qin Wentian sitting beside the princess.
"Qin Wentian, I heard that you are Wu Xiu of the immortal realms. Is this true?" The third princess lifted up the teapot and personally poured tea for Qin Wentian.
"Replying to Princess, I, Qin, am indeed from the immortal realms." Qin Wentian hurriedly received the teacup handed over by the Third Princess. Staring at the beautiful eyes of the 3rd Princess, a brilliant light flickered in his eyes, as though he wanted to see through the thoughts of the 3rd Princess.
His eyes of truth were able to see through all illusions. In her beautiful eyes, Qin Wentian didn't see any evil intentions. Seems like this princess was purely curious about him and wanted to give him some difficult questions.
"What's the difference between the immortal realms and the Myriad Devil Islands?"
"More or less the same." Qin Wentian replied.
"What about cultivation?" The princess asked again.
"Devil arts are more tyrannical and tyrannical. I've also seen the cultivation arts of devil cultivators in the devil general's manor. They are much harder to cultivate compared to Wu Xiu of the immortal realms. But if one can cultivate them to a higher level, their might would be even more tyrannical."
"Qin Wentian, if you change your path to the devil path, would there be any difficulties?"
"No, I, Qin, have a solid foundation. Even if devil arts are tyrannical, it wouldn't affect me." Qin Wentian confidently replied.
"You said that devil arts are more tyrannical. However, Zong Yan is a character at the peak of devil-foundation while you are only at the seventh-level. How did you manage to kill him?" The princess smiled at Qin Wentian. This was the reason why she was curious about Qin Wentian. A Wu Xiu from the immortal realms actually jumped two levels and killed Zong Yan.
In that case, Qin Wentian was definitely a heaven's chosen in the immortal realms. Also, from the words of the attendant earlier as well as Qin Wentian's performance earlier, all of these proved how confident he was. He sat beside her, and although he seemed polite, there was no fear or panic in his eyes.
Such a gaze was like he was looking at an ordinary girl. In fact, what made her feel shocked was that earlier Qin Wentian seemed to be able to see through her with a single glance. She had never felt such a feeling before in front of someone of the same generation. It was like she was stripped naked and was being stared at.
"Devil generals have similar cultivation bases, there are also differences in strength. Cultivation still has to depend on oneself. Who can say that devil cultivators are stronger?" Qin Wentian calmly spoke.
"You mean that you are very strong?"
At this moment, a cold and sharp voice rang out. Everyone inclined their heads only to see the first devil general sitting below the princess staring at Qin Wentian with eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything. An instant later, expressions of interest appeared on the faces of everyone. They understood that this time around, Qin Wentian had thoroughly offended the first devil general.
Many of the devil generals at the bottom of the rankings in the outside world had no idea. But for the people here, who didn't have some fantasies about the princess? And the first devil general had always been wooing the third princess.
Qin Wentian saw the look in the first devil general's eyes, then glanced at the princess and instantly understood some things.
However, so what of it? Since when did he need to care about the first devil general's mood?
"Strong or weak, only others can judge it. It's not up to you to say it yourself." Qin Wentian replied.
"If I wanted to kill Zong Yan, he would have died long ago. I'm merely leaving some strength for the devil sect." The first devil general coldly spoke.
"I believe you." Qin Wentian smiled. But so what of it? Did this have anything to do with him?
"I believe it wouldn't be too difficult for me to kill any devil general." The first devil general spoke again.
Qin Wentian was also one of the devil generals.
Qin Wentian stared at him as he calmly spoke, "In the past, I didn't know. But now, I'm afraid that might not be the case."
In the air, a sharp aura permeated the atmosphere, as though it was extremely stifling!
