Jialan Yuntian's expression sank. Everyone turned to him and someone spoke, "Governor Qin, don't go too overboard. The Jialan Clan Leader has already given you enough face and is even willing to marry the daughter of the Jialan Clan as a concubine. Why must you be so overbearing?"
"I'm afraid the conflict between me and the Jialan Monarch can't be resolved. Hence, one of us has to die. Am I right?" Qin Wentian smiled at the Jialan Monarch.
The Jialan Monarch coldly stared at Qin Wentian. If he knew that Qin Wentian would have such a day, he would have spared no expense to kill him back then.
"Since this is the case, this old man won't say anything more. Governor Qin, please consider this carefully after you return. My Jialan Clan will not make any moves against Governor Qin. I hope that by taking a step back, we would be able to gain Governor Qin's friendship." Jialan Yuntian stared at Qin Wentian. "Let's not talk about this matter for now. Let me propose a toast to Governor Qin."
"Please." Qin Wentian raised his cup and the two of them directly drained it.
Because of Qin Wentian's presence, the atmosphere of the banquet wasn't that relaxed. Hence, after a few cups, Qin Wentian spoke, "I still have some matters to handle in the governor's manor. I, Qin, will bid my farewell first."
"Right. Since this is the case, Governor Qin, take care. Qiuyue, help me send Governor Qin off." Jialan Yuntian spoke.
"Yes, grandpa." Jialan Qiuyue stood up and walked to Governor Qin's side, "Governor Qin, let me send you off."
"You're too polite. I can leave by myself." Qin Wentian stood up and left. However, Jialan Qiuyue merely smiled and continued standing at the side, guiding Qin Wentian out. Qin Wentian's serving girl quietly followed behind them.
"Governor Qin, why must you be so heartless? My Jialan Clan has been established in Lifire City for many years. At that time, even the Lifire Empyrean wasn't around. My grandpa treats you like this not because he's afraid of trouble, but because he respects you as a character. In fact, he isn't even willing to pursue the revenge of my uncle's family." Jialan Qiuyue spoke in a light voice. One couldn't help but say that beauties truly had an advantage. This was especially so for peak-level beauties. Jialan Qiuyue's words didn't cause Qin Wentian to feel any disgust.
"For some things, it's good that Miss Jialan is clear about it. If back then, the daughter of the Jialan Monarch, Jialan Mingyue, was like you, if the Jialan Monarch was like the people of the Jialan Clan, there wouldn't be such a grudge today." Qin Wentian laughed. Jialan Qiuyue's beautiful eyes flashed as a look of contemplation appeared on her face. She then smiled, "I hope Governor Qin can think things through."
After sending Qin Wentian out of the Jialan Clan, the host of today's banquet, Jialan Qiuyue, finally returned. Qin Wentian's eyes gleamed with sharpness. This Jialan Clan was truly powerful.
The banquet this time around allowed him to see the strength of the Jialan Clan. Secondly, it allowed him to create a rift between him and Di Tian. Sadly, the Jialan Clan didn't know that he was Di Tian and Di Tian was him. Thirdly, it was also an extremely important point. This point was more obscure but extremely terrifying. The Jialan Clan sent out an invitation for peace. Although he directly rejected it, what would the Lifire Empyrean think if this matter was circulated to his ears? Would he be suspicious?
After Qin Wentian left, many people at the Jialan Clan's banquet expressed their anger towards Qin Wentian's attitude, hoping that the Jialan Clan would act against him. However, Jialan Yuntian didn't express his stance and didn't mention this matter again. After Jialan Qiuyue returned, everyone began to enjoy the banquet.
After several months, a guest came to the governor's manor, directly looking for Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian immediately agreed to meet with him.
"Governor Qin, how's the situation in the northern city regions recently?" The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor smiled as she asked. The person who came was none other than the Lifire Empyrean's personal woman, the Purple Moon Immortal Emperor. Her beautiful eyes flashed with a smile, exuding an extraordinary aura.
"Everything is fine. Recently, there hasn't been any commotion in the northern city regions. The Jialan Clan is also temporarily very quiet." Qin Wentian smiled. The two of them sat together and enjoyed tea.
"Oh?" The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor smiled. "But I heard that some time ago, the Jialan Clan organized a birthday banquet for Jialan Qiuyue and even invited Governor Qin to attend."
Qin Wentian's heart trembled. As expected, the Lifire Empyrean actually sent the Purple Moon Immortal Emperor over to inquire about this matter.
However, he still felt somewhat puzzled. Even if the Lifire Empyrean was suspicious, there was no need to make things so obvious, right?
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded without batting an eyelid. "In addition, the Jialan Clan is extremely cunning. They even wanted to bury the hatchet and turn hostility into friendship, marrying a female of their clan to me."
As he spoke, even Qin Wentian shook his head.
"Such a good thing, Governor Qin, why didn't you agree?" The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor had an ambiguous smile on her face. Qin Wentian stared at the elegant and dignified Purple Moon Immortal Emperor, silently musing at how the Lifire Empyrean knew how to enjoy life. He smiled, "Leaving aside the fact that this matter might be a scheme of the Jialan Clan, even if it wasn't, would I agree?"
The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor's beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian exchanged glances with her, and upon seeing the offensive look in her eyes, Qin Wentian bitterly smiled, "Fairy, if you look at me like this, I won't be able to bear it."
"Oh? How can I not bear it?" The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor actually had an ambiguous smile on her face, exuding a feminine aura.
"Don't, the Lifire Empyrean will kill me." Qin Wentian shifted his gaze away. The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor laughed lightly as her eyes flashed with a bright light. Which woman in this world wouldn't like to be admired by others? In addition, Qin Wentian was only admiring her, he wouldn't dare to profane her. She naturally wouldn't mind it.
"Governor Qin, the Lifire Empyrean asked me to come here to pass on a message. If Governor Qin achieves great merits in the future, he might even allow Ye Qianyu to leave the Lifire Jail." The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor suddenly spoke. Qin Wentian's eyes flashed as he stared at the Purple Moon Immortal Emperor and nodded, "Fairy, help me thank the Lifire Empyrean for his kindness."
"Mhm, I still have to go to other places. I'll bid my farewell first." The Purple Moon Immortal Emperor stood up.
"I'll send you off." Qin Wentian stood up as well, sending the Purple Moon Immortal Emperor away. After the Purple Moon Immortal Emperor left, a look of contemplation appeared on his face. At this moment, a voice rang out in his mind. He immediately took out his messaging crystal and asked, "Beauty Xiao, why are you looking for me?"
"Hehe, Governor Qin promised to pay a visit to my southern governor's manor when you're free. In that case, are you free now?" Beauty Xiao's charming voice rang out in Qin Wentian's mind. He smiled, "Beauty Xiao, it's not good for me to leave for now."
"Oh? What if I know an important piece of news?" Beauty Xiao seemed to be very confident. She continued smiling, "It's regarding Ye Qianyu."
Qin Wentian's eyes flashed. Important news regarding Ye Qianyu?
He inclined his head and glanced at the Purple Moon Immortal Emperor who had already left. His eyes involuntarily narrowed as he asked, "Beauty Xiao, can you tell me what news it is exactly?"
"Come to my governor's manor and I will tell you." Beauty Xiao giggled. Qin Wentian placed his messaging crystal down. After that, his silhouette flashed as he directly flew out.
…
In the southern governor's manor of Lifire City, Qin Wentian entered. A serving girl led him to a beautiful garden by the lake. This wasn't the first time he came to this governor's manor. Although the one who came here before was his avatar Di Tian, he was by the lake and this time around, he was in the garden.
"Governor Qin, please wait here for a moment. Our lord governor will be here shortly." The serving girl smiled and bowed before retreating, leaving behind Qin Wentian alone.
The fragrance of the garden permeated the air. There was tea on the table. He lifted his teacup and quietly sipped on it.
However, after waiting for a period of time, he still didn't see any traces of Beauty Xiao. His immortal sense involuntarily extended outwards, arriving at the place where Beauty Xiao and Di Tian went to previously. The lake was sparkling and in the middle of it, a beauty was currently bathing. Her wet hair cascaded down her shoulders, revealing her smooth and delicate skin. Her countenance was extremely charming and her smile was extremely alluring.
Qin Wentian was somewhat speechless as he retracted his immortal sense. After that, he heard Beauty Xiao's alluring voice drifting over, "Since you've already seen it, why are you still fleeing? Governor Qin, do you want to bathe together? The temperature of the water is extremely comfortable."
"Beauty Xiao, do you know why I'm here?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Come over, I'll tell you now." Beauty Xiao giggled. Qin Wentian stood up. His silhouette flashed and very soon, he arrived at the side of the lake. He stood there with his hands behind his back as he quietly stared at the beauty bathing in the lake.
"Can I do it now?" Qin Wentian calmly stared at the beauty bathing in the lake as he asked.
Only to see Beauty Xiao walking towards the side of the lake. Her upper body gradually floated up to the surface of the water, revealing her snow-white skin. She was clad in a thin layer of clothing that was completely wet and stuck tightly to her body. Her devilish figure was almost translucent, causing the blood of those who looked at her to boil.
Beauty Xiao supported her long hair with both her hands, flinging it behind her back, exuding boundless charm.
Stepping onto the shore, Beauty Xiao simply stood beside Qin Wentian, exuding an incomparable charm. She smiled, "Governor Qin, do you want to hear it now or do you want me to change my clothes first?"
"I'll wait here for a while." Qin Wentian calmly spoke. However, his heart wasn't calm at all. Such a scene, as long as he was still an ordinary person, he wouldn't be able to remain calm. But at his current cultivation realm, his state of heart was transcendent and his self-control was naturally extremely strong.
"Okay, in that case, Governor Qin, please wait for me." Beauty Xiao's eyes seemed to be able to hook away the souls of people. She passed by Qin Wentian, leaving behind a fragrance. Qin Wentian came to a pavilion and sat down, quietly waiting. Not long after, Beauty Xiao walked out wearing a tight-fitting nightgown. Her entire body was rosy, exuding a different kind of charm, yet similarly tempting.
"Beauty Xiao, can you tell me now?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Why are you so anxious? Could it be that I have no charm at all in front of you?" Beauty Xiao spoke with hidden bitterness.
"Beauty Xiao, could it be that you don't know how strong your charm is? It's just that you should know that the person in the Lifire Jail should be me. I'm naturally concerned about Ye Qianyu's news, please tell me. "Qin Wentian bitterly smiled.
"Hug me, I'll tell you in your ear." Beauty Xiao smiled charmingly. Qin Wentian's face was filled with black lines. He stared at Beauty Xiao's beautiful eyes staring at him and knew that this demoness wouldn't give up until she achieved her goal.
Walking up, Qin Wentian hugged Beauty Xiao and whispered in her ear, "Can you tell me now?"
Beauty Xiao also hugged Qin Wentian with both her hands. Her entire body seemed to be plastered to his body, exuding great temptation. She breathed into Qin Wentian's ear and slowly spoke, "I received news that the Lifelong Realm wants to transfer Ye Qianyu away from the Lifire Palace."
