The expressions of the immortal emperors changed. The Skymist Immortal Emperor then spoke, "Evergreen, I will retreat from the battlefield now and leave the territory of the Evergreen Kingdom. Tell the White Emperor to stop."
The White Emperor had already stepped into the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm, no one in the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom would be able to stop him. This battle would definitely cause the entire Tenlan Heaven Kingdom to decline. Why did he want to destroy the Evergreen Kingdom? It was merely for benefits, to strengthen himself. If the foundation of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was destroyed, even if the Evergreen Kingdom was destroyed, his Tenlan Heaven Kingdom wouldn't be the one laughing in the end.
Although the various major powers had formed an alliance now, the immortal realms were about to descend into chaos. As long as the Evergreen Immortal Empire was destroyed, the various major powers would instantly start scheming against each other and the alliance would instantly crumble. And if the Skymist Immortal Empire fell, the next one to be destroyed would be his Skymist Immortal Empire.
"Now that I have retreated, tell the White Emperor to stop. Are you planning to make a comeback after you reorganize your forces?" The Changqing The Great coldly spoke. "Everything is already destined. Since you want to destroy my Evergreen Kingdom, I won't rest until one of us dies. In addition, I will get the White Emperor to capture your kin. If anything happens to the hostages of my Evergreen Kingdom, let them be buried together with you."
As the sound of his voice faded, the immortal sense of the Evergreen Kingdom faded away. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was enraged as their auras towered up into the sky.
The others glanced at each other in dismay. This time around, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was forced into a corner. Seems like there was no need to try anymore. His daughter, Evergreen Qing`er, must have returned to the Evergreen Immortal Empire and was prepared to send herself to her death. However, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor might have forcefully held her back and was prepared to pay any price to start a war. This point could be seen from the fact that the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was willing to risk his life for the Skymist Immortal Empire.
"Everyone, immediately attack the Evergreen Kingdom Palace and capture the daughter of Evergreen, Evergreen Qing Er. We will destroy Evergreen and prevent any future troubles. At the same time, use Evergreen Qing Er to threaten Qin Wentian to come here." The Skymist Immortal Emperor spoke to everyone.
However, everyone had looks of contemplation on their faces, none of them replied. This caused the heart of the Skymist Immortal Emperor to sink. "Why is everyone not saying anything?"
"The Changqing The Great has already decided to fight to the death. You should have heard his words earlier as well. If we don't kill him, he and the White Emperor would join forces to take revenge on us. Our descendants would all face the threat of death. In order to ensure our safety, we have to rearrange our arrangements and allow the immortal emperors in the City of Ancient Emperors to return. We should prepare to destroy the Evergreen Kingdom in one fell swoop and capture the Changqing The Great, forcing the White Emperor to reveal himself and kill him as well. If not, there would only be endless troubles in the future." An immortal emperor spoke.
"That's right. The Changqing The Great has already gone mad. There's no need for us to accompany him. Everyone, make your preparations. We have to kill Qin Wentian, but we can't leave any future troubles behind. Who would have thought that Evergreen King would be so crazy for a daughter? Could it be that he wouldn't hand Qin Wentian over?" Another immortal emperor coldly spoke. Their goals were different from the Skymist Immortal Emperor. They only wanted Qin Wentian's life. At the same time, if they didn't have the confidence to destroy the Evergreen Kingdom, it was best for them not to offend the Evergreen Kingdom.
Everyone had their own ulterior motives, plotting their own schemes.
"Maybe Qin Wentian still doesn't know about this. I will send people to the City of Ancient Emperors to take a look. If Qin Wentian doesn't know about this, I will send someone to inform him that the Evergreen Kingdom is already under siege. Evergreen Qing Er might die at any moment. I don't believe that he won't come. If he doesn't come, I will inform Evergreen of this matter. I believe that even Evergreen King wouldn't fight for such a son-in-law."
"That's right. I will bid my farewell first. Everyone, please contact me and make your preparations." The Paragon Sword Emperor stepped out. With a flash of his silhouette, he transformed into a beam of resplendent sword light and sped away. The Taihua Immortal Dynasty Lord also bid his farewell and sped away, seemingly in a hurry.
Everyone naturally understood what they were worried about. They and the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom were both located in the eastern regions of the immortal realms. If the White Emperor could slaughter his way into the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, he could similarly slaughter his way into their territory.
"Bastard." The Skymist Immortal Emperor cursed in his heart as his eyes turned red. Nobody listened to his suggestion to immediately attack the Evergreen Kingdom. Everyone had their own worries and plans. If he was the one to attack, most probably, the others would be more than happy to do so. It would be best if both the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom and the Evergreen Kingdom were destroyed together.
Several days later, an earthquake rocked the eastern regions, attracting the attention of the entire immortal realms.
The White Emperor broke through to the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, a peak power of the eastern regions, suffered a calamity in a single day. The royal capital of the empire was razed to flat ground, and countless people died. It was unknown how many experts were killed, and even immortal emperors died. The unexcelled Tenlan Heaven Kingdom fell apart in a single day, leaving behind only the experts who were tempering themselves outside, the Skymist Immortal Emperor, and a few other immortal emperors who managed to escape.
When this news circulated out, countless people were shocked. This was the rage of the Evergreen Kingdom. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom allied with the other peak powers to besiege the Evergreen Kingdom and suffered the strongest retaliation.
However, after that, the White Emperor disappeared again and didn't do anything. From this point, it was very easy to guess his purpose. With the White Emperor in the shadows, the Supreme Sword School, Taihua Immortal Dynasty and the other peak powers would feel trepidation and wouldn't dare to attack the Evergreen Kingdom. On the other hand, if the White Emperor killed his way over, the other peak powers would most probably join forces with the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom and attack the Evergreen Kingdom at all costs.
What made people bewildered was that the Skymist Immortal Emperor didn't make a move, he didn't go over to take revenge. This caused everyone to sigh in admiration. The Tenlan Heaven Kingdom was truly patient, they could even endure this. However, they also understood that the Skymist Immortal Emperor had no choice but to do so. If he was swayed by hatred and disregarded everything and used the remaining strength of the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom to fight against the Changqing The Great, the ones laughing would definitely be the other peak powers.
At the same time, the City of Ancient Emperors also became lively. The immortal emperors of the various peak powers all received the news from the eastern regions. Many immortal emperors left the City of Ancient Emperors, especially those who wanted to destroy Qin Wentian. For example, the Senluo Immortal Empire, the Phoeroc Race, and the other peak powers were all preparing to end this matter once and for all.
As for those experts who were close to Qin Wentian and the Evergreen Kingdom, they were also paying close attention to this matter. They left the City of Ancient Emperors and headed to the eastern regions. This time around, the eastern regions started to gather.
Such a major event caused the entire immortal realms to shake. In the dimension where the immortal kings of the City of Ancient Emperors were at, the news also started to circulate. Only Qin Wentian was still cultivating and didn't know about this.
At this moment, at the ancient peak where Qin Wentian was at, Jun Mengchen and the others stood below. They stared at Qin Wentian's silhouette with hesitation and a struggle in their hearts. They were contemplating if they should inform Qin Wentian of this matter or not. If they told him about this, it was unknown how many immortal emperors of the various peak powers would gather. If Qin Wentian went out, he would simply be courting death.
"Qin Wentian." At this moment, a figure flew over from afar. He stood arrogantly in the air and shouted at Qin Wentian who was in the midst of cultivation. The space trembled as the intense fluctuations jolted Qin Wentian awake. He opened his eyes as a cold light gleamed within. He stared at the person who spoke as a cold light flashed in his eyes.
In the City of Ancient Emperors, there was actually someone who dared to interrupt his cultivation.
"Qin Wentian, the Evergreen Kingdom is facing a calamity because of you. Your fiancée, Evergreen Qing'er, went there in your stead, attempting to die in your place. Yet, you are actually still quietly cultivating here. I'm truly impressed." That person laughed as he stared at Qin Wentian. His words caused Qin Wentian's eyes to gleam with a dazzling light. His body was like a bolt of lightning as he lunged out. That person retreated explosively, but with just a single glance from Qin Wentian, that person was already trapped within.
"BOOM!" A gigantic hand directly grabbed him, causing his face to instantly turn red.
"Qin Wentian, I came here to inform you out of goodwill. What do you mean by this?" That person roared in rage. Qin Wentian's expression was cold to the extreme. "Speak clearly."
"Don't you know? Right now, the entire immortal realms are in an uproar. This is especially so for the eastern regions. The various peak powers have surrounded the Evergreen Kingdom and even surrounded the royal palace, wanting the Evergreen Kingdom to hand over Evergreen Qing'er. You should be clearer than anyone else who their target is. Right now, the immortal emperors from the City of Ancient Emperors have all gone to the Evergreen Kingdom Kingdom Palace. Evergreen Qing'er actually didn't inform you of this matter because she wanted to protect you. She is truly infatuated."
That person slowly spoke. Ji Di's followers, the Namhwang Clan, Jun Mengchen and the others were all here. Their expressions were extremely unsightly to behold. In the end, they couldn't hide it any longer. They actually specially came here to inform Qin Wentian. Their purpose was obvious, they wanted Qin Wentian to go there.
"Mengchen." Qin Wentian turned his head, staring at Jun Mengchen. Jun Mengchen lowered his head in silence.
"Yunxi." Qin Wentian saw Jun Mengchen lowering his head and glancing at Namhwang Yunxi. Namhwang Yunxi bit her lips lightly, not saying anything. Qin Wentian's heart instantly became as clear as a mirror. He knew that he was the only one who didn't know.
"You guys are so muddle-headed. You actually hid this from me." Qin Wentian let out a low-sounding roar. He instantly understood what was going on.
"Qing'er doesn't wish for you to send yourself to death. Hence, she instructed everyone not to tell you about this. Her purpose is to protect you." Namhwang Yunxi spoke to Qin Wentian, as though she still hoped that Qin Wentian wouldn't go. She knew that the moment Qin Wentian went there, the Evergreen Kingdom wouldn't become the target of everyone. However, Qin Wentian would definitely die.
This was a dead end, waiting for Qin Wentian to walk there himself.
"Qing'er, silly lass." A peerless countenance appeared in Qin Wentian's mind. His heart ached as he spoke, "Could it be that she doesn't know that as long as she is here, I will definitely head there? How could she not know …? In that case, she basically doesn't intend to live. She is going there to die."
The hearts of everyone trembled. The people under Ji Di's sect all sighed. The relationship between these two was truly deep. They could instantly guess each other's thoughts. Qin Wentian instantly understood that Qing'er was going there to seek death.
"Qin Wentian, before junior apprentice sister Qing'er left, she instructed us not to tell you about this. She said that if you die, she wouldn't be able to live on alone. Since that's the case, why don't she go there in your place? She asked us if we wish to see the two of you die together, or if we are willing to protect the life of the man she loves and avenge her in the future." Immortal King Junyi stared at Qin Wentian as she spoke. Qin Wentian's heart ached even more.
"Qing'er!" Qin Wentian was filled with grief. With a loud roar, ten thousand swords shot out. The countenance of the person he killed drastically changed as his body was directly torn apart. KILL!
