"This fellow …" The Scarlet Eye Marquis was somewhat unhappy. He stared at Qin Wentian who was stabilizing his aura, "Wentian, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Qin Wentian shook his head. That young immortal king didn't seem to be very pleasing to his eyes.
"That fellow's surname is Evergreen. This isn't an ordinary nobility. He is a relative of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and has always been arrogant. Let me report this to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and punish him." The Scarlet Eye Marquis spoke.
"So this is the case." Qin Wentian silently mused. He smiled at the Scarlet Eye Marquis, "There's no need. It's normal for one to be injured during sparring. It would be making a big fuss out of nothing to report to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor for such a small matter."
"That's true. However, that fellow earlier clearly had the intention of targeting you. Before this, we didn't arrange for him to spar with you. He was the one who entered the formation. Clearly, he did so intentionally." The Scarlet Eye Marquis spoke. Although he was somewhat angry, he was merely saying it. It was impossible for him to really report such a small matter to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. If he did so, it would seem that Qin Wentian was too unmagnanimous.
"Evergreen Yuhao's father is the brother of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and was extremely powerful. However, he died in the civil war back then. Hence, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor has always felt apologetic towards Evergreen Yuhao and nurtured him wholeheartedly, sending him to various places to cultivate. When you were still cultivating in Tiandao Sacred Academy, he returned and has already broken through to the immortal king realm."
The Scarlet Eye Marquis stared at Qin Wentian. "He's targeting you. I guess it's because of the engagement between you and Qing'er."
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded lightly. "Let's go out and chat."
"Right." The Scarlet Eye Marquis nodded. The group of them walked out of the formation. The others stood guard at the entrance while the Scarlet Eye Marquis and Qin Wentian headed towards the direction of Princess Changping.
"How do you feel after sparring during these few days?" The Scarlet Eye Marquis asked.
"The path of cultivation is long. I can only take it step by step." Qin Wentian smiled.
"Mhm, given your terrifying foundation, once you step into the Immortal King Realm, ordinary Immortal Kings won't be able to compare to you."
"It's easier said than done. Stepping into the Immortal King Realm is still a long way off, and I don't even know how long it will take." Qin Wentian sighed.
"Why do you say that? You are improving every day, and your comprehension of the laws is also very strong. Sooner or later, you will enter the immortal king realm. Although others might need a very long time, I believe it won't take too long for you. "The Scarlet Eye Marquis was very optimistic about Qin Wentian.
"In the Immortal Qianbian Gate, it's said that Senior Bai Wuya has already cultivated for 8,000 years. In addition, Senior Bai Wuya's talent can be considered extremely good. I wonder how long it will take for me to step into the immortal king realm." Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice.
"I've also heard of Bai Wuya before. Although he has cultivated for over 8,000 years, his current cultivation base should already be at the peak-level of the immortal king realm. In that case, when he steps into the immortal king realm, the amount of time he would need would be far from being as exaggerated as 8,000 years. You must know that after reaching the immortal king realm, if you want to take another step forward, the amount of time required would far surpass the total amount of time you spent cultivating in the past." The Scarlet Eye Marquis replied.
Qin Wentian nodded lightly. Senior brother Bai Wuya should have already walked very far in the immortal king realm. Tens of years ago in a particle world, he killed the Deepflame Immortal King, a subordinate of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor, on the spot. At that time, there was a battle between immortal kings, but senior brother Bai Wuya single-handedly turned the situation around.
"In addition, Bai Wuya's speed of cultivation is only in comparison to ordinary immortal kings, right? I know that some of the strongest geniuses from the peak powers have extremely terrifying cultivation speeds as well. As for you, you have already surpassed those geniuses of that level and your good fortune isn't bad at all. Why can't you step into the immortal king realm within a short period of time? His Majesty betrothed Qing'er to you when you are at the immortal-foundation realm. Do you know what this means? In the immortal realms, which ruler of an immortal empire would have such courage? Is it really just because you obtained victory in the adjudication battle? "
The Scarlet Eye Marquis spoke. Qin Wentian's eyes flashed, only to hear the Scarlet Eye Marquis continuing, "This is something that has never happened before in the immortal realms. Qing'er is the most doted on daughter of his Majesty. Do you know how much hope his Majesty has placed on you? Since this is the case, even if you can create an unprecedented cultivation record, what's wrong with that? "
Qin Wentian's heart trembled as he felt ashamed in his heart. He actually didn't understand why the Changqing The Great and the Scarlet Eye Marquis regarded him so highly. In fact, they even believed that he would be able to create an unprecedented cultivation record.
Since the Great Emperor and the Scarlet Eye Marquis dared to think this way, why couldn't he have the same conviction?
Senior brother Bai Wuya was very powerful, but he wasn't born strong. He relied on himself bit by bit and after stepping into the immortal king realm, he grew even stronger, killing thirteen experts at the same level as him. But at that time, in the projection of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor Palace, Bai Wuya's companions were the Undying Immortal King, Scarce Moon Immortal King and the others. Comparing Bai Wuya to them, he naturally had a huge advantage. In truth, Bai Wuya was still concealing some of his strength. It was only after he killed the Deepflame Immortal King did the Eastern Sage Immortal King learn of his true strength.
"Since Marquis has put it this way, seems like I have to work even harder." Qin Wentian laughed. As the two of them chatted, they arrived at the Princess Changping Residence. During these few days, he was mainly staying here. After all, Qing'er was only betrothed to him and hadn't truly married him yet. It was naturally impossible for him to move into the princess residence where Qing'er was staying.
However, during these few days, Qing'er had been staying in the Princess Changping Residence.
"Qing'er." Qin Wentian smiled when he saw Qing'er waiting for him. He walked up and held her dainty hands.
Qing'er's aura was as cold as ever, she allowed Qin Wentian to hold her hands.
"Look at the two of you, you two are so young and innocent. I feel like I'm an extra." Princess Changping stared at the two juniors and smiled.
"In that case, let's leave and not disturb them." The Scarlet Eye Marquis also laughed.
"Let me and Qing'er take a stroll outside the royal palace." Qin Wentian spoke.
"Alright, you two go ahead." Princess Changping didn't have any objections. Qin Wentian pulled Qing'er and left the place. Very soon, there were many figures following them from afar. These people seemed to be hidden in the darkness, but Qin Wentian knew of their existence. They were the people protecting him in the dark.
These were extraordinary times. Although there had been peace for nearly four months after the adjudication battle, everyone understood that the people of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom Alliance wouldn't give up so easily. No one knew what they would do. Hence, even if they were in the Imperial City of the Evergreen Kingdom, they still had to be cautious.
Qin Wentian naturally wouldn't reject the protection of these experts. He acted as though nothing had happened and left the royal palace with Qing'er, strolling in the bustling Imperial City.
On the bustling streets of the Royal Capital, there were many people coming and going. The silhouettes of Qin Wentian and Qing`er easily attracted the attention of the majority. The demeanor of the two of them was simply too outstanding. Not only that, Qing`er's cold beauty caused people to be stunned by her beauty. Many people were silently speculating that given the demeanor of these two, they definitely had extraordinary identities.
"Qing'er, many people are looking at you." Qin Wentian squeezed Qing'er's palm as he smiled.
"They're looking at you as well." Qing'er coldly replied.
"Mhm, their gazes are filled with envy and jealousy. Such gazes are truly enjoyable to look at." Qin Wentian's lips curled up in a satisfied smile, as though he was asking for a spanking. Being able to stroll in the crowd with the woman he loved, forgetting about cultivation and enjoying a rare moment of peace and tranquility, was truly a wonderful thing.
Qing'er rolled her eyes at Qin Wentian.
"Shall we go to an inn and enjoy some immortal-tasting delicacies?" Qin Wentian asked Qing'er.
"Sure." Qing'er nodded lightly. After which, the two of them headed towards an inn and chose an extremely good location, allowing them to overlook the surrounding streets and view the bustling Imperial Capital.
"Do you dislike crowded places?" Qin Wentian asked Qing'er who was sitting beside him.
Qing'er stared at Qin Wentian as she lightly shook her head, "With you around, I like everything."
Qin Wentian blinked as he stared at Qing'er. This lass actually knew how to say such touching words.
Upon seeing the fiery gaze of Qin Wentian, Qing'er's face revealed a soul-stirring expression. Qin Wentian held her dainty hand as he spoke in a light voice, "Qing'er, actually I don't wish to marry you too early. Once in our particle world, I was able to give Qingcheng a grand wedding. But in the immortal realms, the me now still needs to rely on your father. I have no way to give you a grand wedding."
"In that case, can we do it twice?" Qing'er smiled. Qin Wentian blinked his eyes as he spoke in a gentle voice, "Qing'er, I truly like you more and more."
...
At a place some distance away from here, there was also an inn. At this moment, a young man was currently drinking wine in a certain location, seemingly in a bad mood.
If Qin Wentian was here, he would be able to recognize that this young man was none other than the young immortal king Evergreen Yuhao who had a prejudice against him in the formation earlier.
Immortal kings were also humans and humans would have their own troubles. Evergreen Yuhao naturally had his own troubles as well. Hence, he was drinking wine alone.
At this moment, an old man in tattered robes walked into the inn. He exuded no aura at all and his eyes were cloudy. He stumbled as he walked towards Evergreen Yuhao and actually sat down.
Evergreen Yuhao's eyes flashed with coldness. He was originally in a bad mood, yet there was actually someone who dared to disturb him while he was drinking.
"Young man, can you enjoy some wine?" The old man's voice was hoarse. As he spoke, another voice rang out in Evergreen Yuhao's mind, "Evergreen Royal Tribe, Evergreen Yuhao."
Evergreen Yuhao's eyes gleamed with sharpness as he stared at the old man. Being able to know his identity and even dare to sit before him, this old man was definitely not an ordinary old man. However, he truly couldn't sense any aura from this old man. It could only be that this old man's cultivation base was higher than him and could easily hide from him.
"Who are you?" Evergreen Yuhao transmitted his voice back.
"Who I am isn't important. Back then, what sort of character was your father? He protected the Changqing The Great and eventually died in battle. Although the Changqing The Great treated you well, it was mostly because of guilt and pity. Your talent is shocking yet you were always hidden behind the scenes. And now, a junior actually attracted so much attention. The Changqing The Great even betrothed Princess Qing 'er to him. From this, one can very well imagine that in the future, this junior would definitely have towering authority in the empire, standing above you and even commanding you."
The old man slowly spoke. Evergreen Yuhao's expression changed, becoming somewhat unsightly to behold. He coldly scolded, "Impudent. The matters of the Evergreen Kingdom are not something you dare to talk about."
