Jialan Qiuyue's beautiful eyes froze as she stared at Di Tian.
The position of the Lifire Empyrean should be changed?
This Di Tian wanted to act against the Lifire Empyrean?
Wasn't this a little too audacious? In addition, did Di Tian have such capabilities?
The Lifire Empyrean was an extraordinary character, a half-step world overlord. It's said that he has already seen a trace of the World Overlord Realm. Although it has been many years since he acted, he was extremely powerful.
Di Tian wanting to shake the position of the Lifire Empyrean was undoubtedly a fool's dream.
"What do you mean by this?" Jialan Qiuyue stared at Di Tian.
"Hasn't your Jialan Clan always had a grudge with the Lifire Empyrean? Now, I know that the Lifire Empyrean will make a mistake. We can make use of this mistake to deal a heavy blow to the Lifire Empyrean. For this, I need the Jialan Clan's cooperation." Di Tian spoke.
"What mistake?" Jialan Qiuyue asked.
"You should know of Qin Wentian, right?" Di Tian stared at Jialan Qiuyue. "Back then, many people suspected the Jialan Monarch for his death. Right now, the Lifire Empyrean wants to use this matter to make a fuss, acting first and reporting later, wanting to kill Qin Wentian."
"Qin Wentian obtained the Realmlord's favor before and had an outstanding performance in the grand banquet back then. Could it be that the Lifire Empyrean has obtained evidence that the Jialan Monarch was really killed by Qin Wentian?" Jialan Qiuyue's eyes flashed with coldness. No matter what, the Jialan Monarch was her uncle.
"I'm not sure about this. I only know that the Lifire Empyrean secretly gathered all the governors and plotted to lure Qin Wentian to the Lifire Palace before killing him and reporting to the Lifelong Realmlord. The Lifire Empyrean doesn't want Qin Wentian to live and according to my spy, the Lifire Empyrean doesn't have any evidence. Think about it, if the Realmlord knew that the Lifire Empyrean disregarded him like this, what would he think?" Di Tian spoke.
"There's actually a spy for you in the Lifire Palace. What have you done exactly? Could it be that you acted against Yin Qiu because of this?" Jialan Qiuyue felt that she couldn't see through Di Tian.
"How is our relationship?" Di Tian stared at Jialan Qiuyue. Although only a pair of eyes could be seen, Jialan Qiuyue's heart trembled as a hint of shyness appeared on her face.
"What about my relationship with your Jialan Clan?" Di Tian continued, "The Lifire Empyrean has long been suspicious of me. Because he suspected Qin Wentian, he wanted to act against Qin Wentian. What about me? Once he finds an excuse, he would definitely join forces to deal with all of us. On the contrary, if your Jialan Clan becomes the Lifire Empyrean, the significance to me would also be extraordinary. "
"You still know about this? Do you want to marry into my Jialan Clan now? I can introduce a young miss of my Jialan Clan to you." Jialan Qiuyue giggled. Di Tian sweated profusely, "Qiuyue, this matter can be considered a showdown with the Lifire Empyrean. I have no way to predict how things would develop in the future. You should go back and report this to the Jialan Clan. If your Jialan Clan doesn't want to make things difficult for me, just treat it as though I didn't say anything. I'll just keep a low profile in the Lifire Palace. As for Qin Wentian, so be it if he dies."
"Okay, I'll go back now." Jialan Qiuyue nodded and departed. Upon seeing Jialan Qiuyue leaving, Di Tian sighed silently. The Jialan Monarch had already died. Honestly speaking, his hatred towards the Jialan Clan had already dissipated. But for this matter, he still needed to make use of the Jialan Clan. He even made use of Jialan Qiuyue's feelings for him. He felt somewhat guilty.
But when he thought of Ye Qianyu and how Princess Kitamura was still in the Lifelong Realm, there were some things he had no choice but to do. He needed authority or he wouldn't even have a chance to come into contact with Ye Qianyu and Princess Kitamura.
…
The Lifire Empyrean personally told the various governors to investigate the matter and strictly maintain order in the various regions. If there were any cases of them abusing their authority for personal gain, they had to admit to their crimes and they would be dealt with leniently. The various governors understood the Lifire Empyrean's intentions and all of them headed to the Lifire Palace to beg for forgiveness. After being punished, this matter was considered to be over.
When this news circulated out, many people felt shock in their hearts. The Lifire Empyrean was clearly targeting Di Tian. Di Tian captured Yin Qiu but the Lifire Empyrean didn't say anything. He even told the various governors to investigate the matter and admit to their crimes. To the Lifire Empyrean, this was an extremely shameful thing but he still did it. From this, one could imagine that the relationship between the Lifire Empyrean and Grandmaster Di had already plunged to the freezing point.
During these days, Grandmaster Di would frequently visit the Jialan Clan as a guest. Jialan Qiuyue would also frequently visit the Emperor Pavilion. Everyone understood that Grandmaster Di ultimately still chose to side with the Jialan Clan. He was helping the Jialan Clan to deal with the Lifire Empyrean.
Ultimately, he couldn't overcome the charms of a beauty. Seems like Jialan Qiuyue has already won the heart of this outstanding governor, a grandmaster weaponsmith, a genius of the martial path.
And during this sensitive period, Zhuge Xiong actually received a reply from Qin Wentian. According to Qin Wentian, he went to a mine and left his interspatial ring in a secret location, including his messaging crystal. Hence, Zhuge Xiong had no way to reply and asked what was the matter.
There didn't seem to be any problems. Zhuge Xiong then told Qin Wentian to return and told him that many things happened in the Lifire Palace. The Lifire Empyrean wanted to summon him many times but he couldn't find him. Qin Wentian agreed. Zhuge Xiong then set his heart at ease. Seems like there shouldn't be any problems with Qin Wentian.
It's just that before the problem with Qin Wentian was resolved, Di Tian and the Jialan Clan jumped out again. This caused him to feel extremely depressed.
After reporting the news to the Lifire Empyrean, the Lifire Empyrean naturally told Qin Wentian to report to the Lifire Palace after he returned. After that, after some questioning, he directly captured him and killed him on the spot, not giving Qin Wentian any chance to explain himself. The Jialan Monarch was killed by him, there was no doubt about it. He wanted to make sure the crime was real and execute him to prevent any future troubles.
Since he had decided to do this, the Lifire Empyrean would naturally be very decisive. He would definitely not leave any hidden dangers behind.
Finally, today, Qin Wentian returned to the northern governor's manor of the Lifire Palace.
"Wentian, Zhuge Xiong personally came here to look for you, asking about your whereabouts. I've also sent you a message." The Evil Emperor saw that Qin Wentian had returned and immediately reported this matter.
"I know, I also know why they are looking for me. Hence, I didn't reply to you. Xu Li, during these few days, is everything fine in the northern city regions? Did anything happen?" Qin Wentian asked Xu Li. In the northern city regions, he wouldn't allow anyone to use his weakness against him.
As long as he didn't do anything wrong, if the Lifire Empyrean wanted to act against him, that would be the Lifire Empyrean's problem.
"No." Xu Li shook his head. "Everything is normal in the northern city regions."
"Mhm, good. I'm going to enter closed-door seclusion for a while. If the grand governor or anyone else comes to ask, just tell them that I'm in closed-door seclusion because I'm about to break through. No matter what happens, no matter what." Qin Wentian instructed.
"About to break through?" The eyes of the Evil Emperor and Xu Li flashed, gleaming with sharpness.
Was he about to break through so quickly?
The two of them exchanged mutual glances, unable to conceal the shock in their hearts. Did they know what cultivation realm Qin Wentian was at back then? How many years has it been now? Was he actually about to enter that legendary realm?
If they knew that Qin Wentian had already broken through to that level, it was unknown what they would think.
Qin Wentian instructed them because he wanted to use them to tell the people of the Lifire Palace that he was about to break through. If they wanted to act, they better hurry up. If not, it would be even more troublesome to deal with him.
Qin Wentian decisively entered closed-door seclusion. The Lifire Palace soon received the news that Qin Wentian had returned.
As the northern governor, how would Qin Wentian be so naive? He knew that the moment he entered the governor's manor, the Lifire Palace would immediately know about it. It was impossible to say that there were no people from the Lifire Palace in the governor's manor. If not, the Lifire Empyrean would have suspected him back then because the Lifire Empyrean's people must have seen him leaving the governor's manor.
Hence, on the second day, Grand Governor Zhuge Xiong personally paid a visit to the northern governor's manor. The Evil Emperor and Xu Li personally received him.
"What's wrong? Didn't Governor Qin hear my words earlier? It has been so many years since he went to the Lifire Palace. Why did he enter closed-door seclusion the moment he returned?" Zhuge Xiong was extremely unhappy. "Get him to come out immediately and head to the Lifire Palace with me."
"Grand Governor, please calm your anger. Governor Qin has already given a death order. Right now, he is currently at a crucial moment in his cultivation. No one, no matter what, is allowed to disturb his cultivation. If not, all of us will be punished." Xu Li respectfully spoke.
"What crucial moment? You even dare to disobey the Lifire Empyrean's orders?" Zhuge Xiong stared at Xu Li. "Are you going to disobey as well?"
"Governor Qin didn't say that he received the Lifire Empyrean's orders. He shouldn't know about this. If he knew, he would head to the Lifire Palace first." Xu Li explained. "Also, before he entered closed-door seclusion, Governor Qin said that he was about to break through. At this moment, even if something major happened, this subordinate wouldn't have the guts to disturb him. If Lord Governor's breakthrough was delayed, I wouldn't be able to bear the consequences."
Zhuge Xiong's eyes flashed with sharpness when he heard this. "Did Governor Qin really say this?"
"This subordinate doesn't dare to lie to Grand Governor. These are Governor Qin's original words. He is about to break through and no matter who it is, no one is allowed to disturb him." Xu Li solemnly spoke. Zhuge Xiong's eyes gleamed with sharpness.
Qin Wentian was actually about to break through? What a fast speed.
"Since this is the case, I'll report this to the Lifire Empyrean first. Hmph." Zhuge Xiong left unhappily. Xu Li watched as his silhouette disappeared. He then glanced at the Evil Emperor and asked, "Why do I feel that something is about to happen?"
The Evil Emperor's eyes narrowed, gleaming with an evil light. Qin Wentian entered closed-door seclusion the moment he returned. After that, Zhuge Xiong arrived and told him to go to the Lifire Palace. Not only that, Zhuge Xiong's attitude was extremely domineering. This was something that had never happened before.
Also, from Qin Wentian's reaction, he knew that Zhuge Xiong would come. Hence, he gave the death order, not allowing anyone to disturb him. In that case, Qin Wentian was intentionally avoiding this matter.
"Yeah, a storm is brewing." The Evil Emperor opened his eyes, gleaming with an evil light.
