Qin Wentian's life was as simple as ever. He would comprehend, cultivate, borrow the emperor-ranked cultivation platform to sense the emperor light descending from the sky, and also research the art of forging. Sometimes, he would be like the River Portrait Immortal Emperor, sitting there and sculpting.
The River Portrait Immortal Emperor was a mid-stage immortal emperor and was also a grandmaster-level character. Forging was something he had to do every day. This would allow him to steadily increase his affinity with the different attributes of emperor-ranked stones, allowing him to be more proficient in forging. Qin Wentian also felt that sculpting allowed him to gain a lot of insights. Every time he sculpted, he would be fully focused and his state of heart would be at peace.
However, this was also because Qin Wentian was wealthy now. If it was back then when he first came to the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, how would he have such conditions? Using emperor-ranked stones to sculpt was simply too extravagant. Ten years ago, he plundered many treasures and obtained a lot of cultivation resources. In addition, with that cultivation platform, he wouldn't be able to use these cultivation resources normally.
At this moment, on the high ground, Qin Wentian sat on the ground and took out an emperor-ranked stone, quietly sculpting. Beside him, a supreme beauty in white could be seen. Other than Ye Qianyu, who else could it be?
Ye Qianyu stared at the serious expression on Qin Wentian's face as her beautiful eyes gleamed with a bright light. She really liked how focused Qin Wentian was when he was sculpting. Even if she tried to tempt him, Qin Wentian would still be unmoved.
"Mhm?" Ye Qianyu's beautiful eyes suddenly flashed as she stared at the gigantic emperor stone in Qin Wentian's hands. He wasn't sculpting a weapon but was sculpting a person instead. The outline of a person could be faintly seen on the sword he was sculpting. An elegant figure, long hair, and gradually, an extremely beautiful face appeared. Pure and beautiful, a smile that could move the hearts of people. Those beautiful eyes were pure and flawless, capable of toppling empires.
"Who is she?" Ye Qianyu had a serious expression on her face as she stared at the sword in Qin Wentian's hand. He didn't stop and continued to carve out a flawless and lifelike image of that supreme beauty. After he was done, he continued to carve the image of another human. When the silhouette appeared, Ye Qianyu could already guess that this was a beautiful woman. In truth, it was just as she had guessed. This was a supreme beauty that exuded a faint coldness, incomparably pure and holy, as flawless as a snow lotus on an ice mountain.
"Who are they?" Ye Qianyu's beautiful eyes flashed. She had met Princess Kitamura before but the two maidens Qin Wentian sculpted were clearly not her.
Finally, the engraving sword in Qin Wentian's hand dissipated, transforming back into astral light. He stared at the two silhouettes as a hint of gentleness flashed in his eyes. Such gentleness was something Ye Qianyu had never seen before. Upon seeing that gentle smile, Ye Qianyu's heart involuntarily trembled.
Was this the reason why he was able to resist her temptation?
"They are my wives." Qin Wentian stared at the sculpture as he spoke in a light voice. "I'm not someone from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, I came from the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms from the lower world. In the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms, my enemies are everywhere. One day, the peak powers of the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms arrived at the place where my wives were at, forcing me to show myself. Many of my elders and good friends appeared together with me, resulting in a battle that shook the lower world.
As for me, I died in battle. Hence, I can already be considered someone who has died once. "Ye Qianyu didn't disturb Qin Wentian.
She was actually very quiet as she listened. "After that battle, my wife's hair instantly turned white. My other wife was like a living corpse. It was only until I was revived by a stroke of good fortune that she regained her vitality. Her eyes finally regained their luster and after that, I came to the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms due to a stroke of good fortune. As for them, they are still waiting for me in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms." Qin Wentian smiled gently as he turned his gaze to Ye Qianyu.
"Is this the reason why your astral souls are extraordinary?" Ye Qianyu instantly understood.
"Mhm, my talent might be very ordinary. But knowing this, palace mistress, would you still be willing to do this to me?" Qin Wentian smiled.
Ye Qianyu smiled at Qin Wentian. Her smile didn't have the same charm as before, it was filled with gentleness as she spoke, "Can you carve a portrait of me as well?"
"…" Qin Wentian was instantly speechless. What was this woman thinking about?
Upon seeing the look in Qin Wentian's eyes, Ye Qianyu giggled, "Maybe, I don't have any objections to being your concubine. Do you want to give it a try?"
"…"
Qin Wentian stood up and fled in a sorry state, returning to the cultivation platform. Behind him, Ye Qianyu's laughter rang out, "Qin Wentian, are you still a man?"
…
Recently, Princess Kitamura suddenly received a mission. This mission was personally issued by the Lifire Empyrean, wanting her to head to a secret realm. She naturally participated in it. This was an extremely important trial for the Lifire Palace, she couldn't use external treasures or communicate with anyone. Hence, everything on her, including her interspatial ring, couldn't be brought into the secret realm, including messaging crystals. But even so, she didn't have any doubts. She had been in the Lifire Palace for many years and knew that this was the rule.
But just when Princess Kitamura accepted this mission, the Jialan Monarch actually issued a warrant for Qin Wentian's arrest. At the same time, one of Qin Wentian's accomplices would be executed a month later. It was said that Qin Wentian was a spy in the Jialan Monarch's palace. This news soon circulated. Was this Qin Wentian one of the bandits from back then?
At this moment, Qin Wentian still didn't know about this. Until one day, when he was on his way to the River Portrait Immortal Emperor's place, the Barbarian Emperor stopped him.
"What's the matter?" Right now, Qin Wentian's attitude towards the Barbarian Emperor was no longer as polite as in the past. After that incident in the past, he already knew that the Barbarian Emperor hated him in his heart.
"Take a look for yourself." The Barbarian Emperor waved his hand as a warrant appeared before Qin Wentian. Upon seeing the warrant, Qin Wentian's expression instantly turned extremely unsightly to behold. He turned and prepared to return.
"You want to tell the Empyrean?" The Barbarian Emperor transmitted his voice. "Do you think the Empyrean wouldn't know? If you tell her, do you think the Empyrean would still allow you to head to the emperor city? Or do you think the Empyrean would send people to their deaths for the sake of your lover? "
Qin Wentian halted his steps. He slowly turned and coldly stared at the Barbarian Emperor as he transmitted his voice, "You want me to head to the emperor city to die?"
"I can't ask you to go or not. Whether you are willing to go or not, that's your business. In any case, there are only a few days left. Naturally, from my point of view, your life is more important. In addition, the Empyrean likes you, why would you care about a lover?" The Barbarian Emperor coldly laughed as he left.
"How would I know that this warrant isn't forged by you?" Qin Wentian stared at the back of the Barbarian Emperor as he coldly spoke.
"How ridiculous, you can easily find out the truth with just a simple investigation." The Barbarian Emperor directly left. Qin Wentian stood at his original location and took out his messaging crystal. He sent a strand of his immortal sense into it and contacted Princess Kitamura, "Youhuang, where are you?"
There was no reply. He then spoke again, "Youhuang, this is an extremely urgent matter. Immediately reply to me."
There was still no reply. Qin Wentian's expression instantly turned pale. He lifted his feet and headed towards the River Portrait Immortal Emperor's location. However, his entire person was in a daze. Today, he sent many messages but he didn't receive any reply from Princess Kitamura no matter what he said.
Clearly, the Barbarian Emperor's words were true. Something happened to Youhuang.
On the second day, Qin Wentian silently left Heavenly City alone. He naturally disguised himself. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he had to go and take a look.
He didn't tell Ye Qianyu. Even if she was willing to go together with him, he didn't want to implicate her.
After exiting Heavenly City, Qin Wentian sped towards a certain direction with incredible speed.
"Mhm?" On the way, Qin Wentian frowned. His sharp senses told him that there were people following him. Although this feeling was very weak, his instincts told him that there should be someone following him.
However, he didn't care about it and continued on his way. Finally, two figures appeared before him, quietly standing there as though they had been waiting for him.
Behind him, that immortal sense no longer concealed itself and directly shot towards him. Very swiftly, another two figures appeared. All four of them were at the immortal emperor realm.
In fact, one of them was at the mid-stage of the immortal emperor realm. All of them were clad in armor and were fully equipped, like they were used to plunder mines.
"Barbarian Emperor, is this your true killing move?" Qin Wentian coldly spoke. One of the two behind him was none other than the Barbarian Emperor.
"Qin Wentian, if you manage to enter the emperor city alive and get captured, what if you betray us? Leaving you alive would only be a calamity." The Barbarian Emperor coldly spoke. The Jialan Monarch was precisely the one who leaked the news. However, the Barbarian Emperor only had a single goal and that was to kill Qin Wentian. He naturally wasn't willing to implicate the Thousand Feathers Palace.
Even though Ye Qianyu's feelings for him were far inferior compared to Qin Wentian, he still liked Ye Qianyu and had liked her for many years. He only wanted Qin Wentian to die.
"Are you all also Qianyu's subordinates? Was it the Barbarian Emperor who instigated all of you to kill me? "Qin Wentian stared at the others as he spoke.
"The palace mistress is behaving strangely now. As her subordinates, we can only help her correct her actions." An immortal emperor coldly spoke. "Even if we are to be punished, we still don't mind it."
"I will naturally bear all the punishment. However, the Thousand Feathers Palace is the blood and sweat of us brothers. We cannot allow it to be destroyed in the hands of an outsider." The Barbarian Emperor's voice was extremely cold. "Alright, let's do it."
"Mhm." The others nodded. Four immortal emperors including a mid-stage immortal emperor. Using such a lineup to kill a peak-stage immortal king was already sufficient to show that they regarded Qin Wentian highly. This was naturally the arrangement of the Barbarian Emperor. He knew how powerful Qin Wentian was, being able to easily kill an initial-stage immortal king. He couldn't help but to be more cautious.
An intense light radiated from Qin Wentian. The radiance was so resplendent that people couldn't even open their eyes. Almost at the same time, the four immortal emperors unleashed their powerful law energy. Beams of emperor light descended from the sky, as well as astral light. They stood in four different directions and directly blasted out an attack towards Qin Wentian.
