The people below all sighed in their hearts when they saw this scene. In the end, Qin Wentian still found out.
That person who came to make the report clearly wanted to tell Qin Wentian about this so that he could send Qin Wentian to his death. However, wasn't this fellow a little too foolish? Under Qin Wentian's rage, how could he spare him?
"I want to go out." Qin Wentian's robes fluttered in the wind as he slowly spoke.
"You want to go out and die?" Namhwang Yunxi's silhouette flashed as she appeared in the air. Her beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian as she spoke in a loud voice, "Don't you understand Qing 'er's painstaking efforts? If you go out now, what's the difference between that and courting death? Have you forgotten what Immortal King Junyi said earlier? If you die, Qing' er won't be able to continue living alone."
Qin Wentian's body trembled as he stared at Namhwang Yunxi. He naturally understood that Namhwang Yunxi didn't want anything to happen to him.
"From the news I received, junior apprentice sister Qing 'er went there with the heart to die. However, after Changqing The Great learned of this, he immediately placed her under house arrest. Regardless of senior Changqing The Great or Qing' er, none of them came to inform you. Clearly, they don't want you to die." Ji Di's followers spoke.
"Wentian gege." Bai Qing also walked over, her sparkling eyes staring at Qin Wentian.
None of them wished for Qin Wentian to die.
"Senior brother." Jun Mengchen also spoke. Qin Wentian slowly turned his gaze over, staring at everyone as he sighed in his heart, "There's no need for you all to persuade me. Qing 'er went there for me. Do you want me to hide in the City of Ancient Emperors and watch Qing' er face the calamity for me?"
Qin Wentian smiled, but his smile was filled with desolation.
"I've made up my mind." Qin Wentian's voice was resolute. Everyone sighed.
"Qin Wentian, I won't stop you from heading there. But if you head there now, what's the difference between that and courting death? At the very least, you have to fight for a chance of survival. In addition, the White Emperor has already broken through to the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm and destroyed the Tenlan Heaven Kingdom, causing the major powers of the Eastern Regions to hesitate in their actions. In addition, the Changqing The Great once declared that if the Evergreen Kingdom is destroyed and he survives, he would follow the White Emperor to seek revenge.
I'm sure that at this time, the major powers would feel some trepidation. "Namhwang Yunxi continued," Hence, many powers don't really want to start a war with the Evergreen Kingdom. They only want your life. As long as you say that you will head there, the prerequisite is that they don't attack the Evergreen Kingdom. If not, you will never appear. In this case, those major powers wouldn't attack the Evergreen Kingdom before you appear. And during this period of time, why can't you fight for it? "
The holy maidens of the Namhwang Clan stared at Namhwang Yunxi in bewilderment. Her words seemed to have been planned out long ago. Most probably, she was worried that Qin Wentian would send himself to his death if he knew about this.
"Yunxi, you are right. It's just that, fight for it? How can we fight for it? This calamity is already incomparable to the adjudication battle in the Eastern Regions of the immortal realms. It's much more dangerous and the Immortal Qianbian Gate basically has no way to resist it. The Namhwang Clan, Senior Ji Di and the other major powers wouldn't be able to participate. "Qin Wentian sighed silently. In such a perilous situation, who would be willing to participate for him, Qin Wentian?
At the very least, the him now didn't have such rallying power.
"If we don't fight for it, how would we know? I will head to the Namhwang Clan and inquire about the Namhwang Clan's attitude." Namhwang Yunxi spoke. She also knew that the chances were slim but she still wanted to give it a try.
"Junior apprentice sister Qing 'er is our junior apprentice sister, a disciple doted on by master. We will also seek an audience with master and inquire about master's attitude." An expert from Ji Di's sect spoke. For this battle, even if they were immortal kings, they had no way to participate. This was an emperor-ranked battle and only immortal emperors had the qualifications to participate.
"Senior brother, the strength of the Heavenly Talisman Realm is unfathomably deep. We can give it a try." Jun Mengchen transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian's heart trembled slightly but he didn't have too much hope. When he joined the Heavenly Talisman Realm, they already had an agreement. The Heavenly Talisman Realm wouldn't force him to do anything but they wouldn't expose themselves because of him. He had no way to know the purpose of the Heavenly Talisman Realm's existence but at the very least, he didn't have the ability to make the entire Heavenly Talisman Realm act for him.
"Wentian gege, I will go to the Judiciary Devil Hall and ask for reinforcements for you. Also, Bujie will definitely come." Bai Qing spoke in a low voice.
"I will go to the Desolate Mountains to meet with that old fellow." Little Rascal's voice was as immature as ever, but he was very serious. The old fellow he was referring to was naturally that supremely powerful demon emperor heaven devouring beast.
Qin Wentian glanced at his companions as warmth flowed in his heart. Unknowingly, everyone was already immortal kings. If it wasn't for the fact that they were from peak powers, they would be able to handle things independently.
"Qin Wentian, just give it a try. At the very least, there's a sliver of hope. If you don't try, it would only be a path of death." Namhwang Yunxi's beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian.
Upon seeing her gaze, Qin Wentian solemnly nodded his head. "Okay, I will give myself three more months of time. You guys think of a way to help me pass my message to the Evergreen Kingdom. Three months later, I will head to the Evergreen Kingdom Palace to settle my grudge. During these three months, if the Evergreen Kingdom is attacked, I will never appear again."
"Right." Namhwang Yunxi silently heaved a sigh of relief. She also knew that the chances were slim, but at the very least, she had to fight for it.
"Three months later, I will meet you all at the Evergreen Kingdom Palace."
"Wentian gege." Bai Qing clenched her fists tightly. After that, she turned and left, preparing to use her fastest speed to rush to the Devil Mountain.
"Senior brother, I will go to the Heavenly Talisman Realm to look for my guide brother." Jun Mengchen transmitted his voice and left. Everyone left one after another. However, they didn't abandon Qin Wentian. Rather, they wanted to fight for a chance of survival for Qin Wentian.
"Young master, is there a chance for him to break through to the immortal emperor realm?" The experts from the Battle Saint Tribe were still around. Qi Yu stared at Qin Wentian in the air. If Qin Wentian broke through to the immortal emperor realm, he would have a chance to enter the highest level of the three worlds and obtain the help of immortal emperors from the Battle Saint Tribe.
"How can it be so easy to break through to the immortal emperor realm?" Qin Wentian sighed. He clenched his fists tightly as an intense killing intent flashed in his eyes. The cause of this calamity was all because of a voice from a peak character who exposed his identity. If not, after the City of Ancient Emperors, the disappearance of the Saber-Sword Immortal King, there wouldn't be such a calamity, causing such a huge commotion.
That person who exposed his identity was someone with evil intentions. Not only could he die, he even caused such a huge commotion in the immortal realms.
Who was it exactly that managed to guess his identity?
If he knew who it was, he would definitely make that person die without a burial ground.
Inclining his head, Qin Wentian's resplendent eyes flickered with a terrifying coldness. Qing 'er went out to face the calamity for him. Luckily, the Changqing The Great was decisive and doted on Qing' er, imprisoning her and even waging war against her.
At this moment, the clouds in the sky churned as a terrifying aura bore down. Within the churning clouds, bolts of lightning flashed as a terrifying scene appeared.
"Qin Wentian, come up here." A voice drifted over. Qin Wentian's eyes flashed as he turned his gaze over. After that, he saw an incomparably gigantic black dragon coiling in the air.
With a flash of his silhouette, Qin Wentian soared up into the clouds, entering the tempest. He stared at the gigantic black dragon before him as he asked, "Senior, do you have any instructions for me?"
"Are you willing to follow me?" The black dragon spoke to Qin Wentian.
"Where to?" Qin Wentian frowned as he asked.
"That palace. You are now qualified to obtain the scepter. I'll bestow it to you." The black dragon spoke, his words causing Qin Wentian's eyes to flicker. "Senior, didn't you say that the rules in the City of Ancient Emperors have changed and there's a need for a competition?"
"That's right. During these years, I've been observing the City of Ancient Emperors. You truly didn't disappoint me and can be considered to have passed the test. Hence, I'll allow you to obtain the scepter." The black dragon spoke. "As long as you obtain the scepter, even if many people in the immortal realms want to kill you, they wouldn't be able to do so. As long as you are in the City of Ancient Emperors, no one would be able to kill you. I can protect you from death."
"What if I exit the City of Ancient Emperors?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Outside the City of Ancient Emperors, I won't interfere." The black dragon replied.
"Senior, this junior is willing to give up on the scepter inheritance." Qin Wentian spoke. The black dragon's eyes gleamed with coldness as it spoke, "Do you know what this scepter represents?"
"Junior is ignorant, I have no idea. It's just that junior will soon face a calamity and might not be able to survive. If that's the case, wouldn't I have let down senior's good intentions and lose the scepter?" Qin Wentian calmly spoke.
"Love?" The black dragon snorted coldly. "This immortal realms is a world of cultivation. If you can stand at the peak one day, you would be able to have all the beauties in the world. You actually want to give up the scepter for such a minor matter? Do you know what the changes in the rules of the City of Ancient Emperors mean? Do you know what the dao elements from the heavens signify? What does the scepter inheritance signify? "
"Junior doesn't know." Qin Wentian replied.
"Among the thirty-three immortal realms, the dao elements originate from the immortal realms of the upper world. They are the hegemonic powers that rely on the dao elements to select their disciples. Once one has comprehended the dao element, they would be bound by the restrictions and wouldn't be able to leave the immortal realms. Only by defeating all the competitors in the City of Ancient Emperors would one be able to gain the recognition of the dao element. At that time, the victor would be able to enter the City of Ancient Emperors and ascend to the upper world. There's no need for them to experience the tribulations of life and death. If not, why do you think so many legendary characters and ancient emperors would come to the City of Ancient Emperors?"
The black dragon stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke in a loud voice. Qin Wentian's heart trembled, he didn't expect the origin of the dao element to be so great. This, was the true secret of the City of Ancient Emperors.
"You didn't accept the dao element's inheritance. Just as well, as long as you inherit the scepter, it means that you don't need to contend against others for the dao element's inheritance. You can directly obtain the opportunity to cross the immortal realms. As for what happens after that, I temporarily won't tell you. In that case, do you want it or not?" The black dragon stared at Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian stared at the demonic eyes as calm as ever. He replied, "Junior knows that there's going to be a death tribulation soon and I don't dare to delay the inheritance. I can only let senior down."
"You don't know what's good for you." The black dragon roared in rage. A terrifying aura gushed forth as bolts of lightning crackled around Qin Wentian. It felt like as long as he willed it, he would be able to kill Qin Wentian here.
"Fine. I truly want to see how big of a wave you can stir if you don't accept the inheritance." The black dragon roared. After that, he soared into the air as the violent aura in the air gradually calmed down.
Qin Wentian was incomparably calm. He had once wanted to take the scepter but it was the black dragon who changed his mind. He had already made up his mind to give up on this inheritance. Let alone now, all his attention was on Qing 'er. He wouldn't care about this inheritance that might restrict him!
