After Qin Wentian ascension ceremony, the Lifire Palace hosted a grand banquet. The atmosphere in the ancient and majestic palace was extremely lively.
The experts from the peak powers of Lifire City have all arrived. In addition, these were all important characters. No matter what attitude they had towards Qin Wentian in the past, after Qin Wentian ascended to the Lifire Empyrean's throne, everything they had was now nothing more than dust. Right now, they could only have a single attitude. Respect.
What sort of power was the Jialan Clan? They were a peak power, even in Lifelong City. Jialan Jiangshan of the Jialan Clan had even fought for the position of the Lifire Palace Lord but failed. But even though Jialan Jiangshan was made use of by Di Tian, he still came here personally. From this, one could very well imagine what the other powers would do. Don't forget, Qin Wentian was still the prime suspect for the death of the Jialan Monarch.
But so what if Qin Wentian was the one who killed the Jialan Monarch? Right now, that article could already be flipped. No one would pursue this matter anymore.
Lifire City was also incomparably lively. The vast majority of people were only discussing a single topic – the legendary character of Lifire City, Qin Wentian. They would occasionally glance in the direction of the Lifire Palace or personally head to the foot of the Lifire Palace, staring up at the majestic ancient hall.
No one dared to cause trouble in Lifire City. The Lifire Empyrean has just ascended to the throne. If they caused trouble now, it would undoubtedly be an act of challenging his prestige. This was definitely an act of courting death. Don't forget, this was a character who could topple the previous Lifire Empyrean. He was even more terrifying compared to the previous Lifire Empyrean, a living legend.
Seats could be seen everywhere in the Lifire Palace. Qin Wentian and Ye Qianyu had already vanished. They held hands and after surveying the entire Lifire City, they left, leaving everything to Di Tian to manage. Everyone naturally wouldn't know that Di Tian was none other than a clone of Qin Wentian. There was no difference no matter who stayed here.
Many people came over to toast to Di Tian. Although the person who eventually sat on the throne was Qin Wentian, no one in Lifire City dared to underestimate how terrifying Di Tian was. Don't forget that he was the one who orchestrated that plot. It could be said that Di Tian was the one who single-handedly brought down the previous Lifire Empyrean.
The Jialan Clan was made use of by him. The strength of the Emperor Pavilion in Lifire City had already surpassed the Jialan Clan. Also, Grandmaster Di, who had become a vice palace lord, would definitely allow the Emperor Pavilion to grow even stronger in the future.
Di Tian would at least become a Palace Lord in the future. Just based on his strength, talent, and intelligence, Di Tian would be able to become a Palace Lord.
The Mo Clan was the clan that benefited the most from Di Tian's rise to glory. They had been assisting Di Tian from the very beginning. Elder Mo Fei and the young miss of the Mo Clan, Mo Junyi, had always been by Di Tian's side. As the Emperor Pavilion grew stronger, the Mo Clan grew stronger as well. Right now, the people of the Mo Clan were all sitting at Di Tian's table, all of them extremely respectful. Di Tian's status was completely different now. Just based on his empyrean cultivation base, he could only be looked up to.
Mo Ting also didn't mention the matter between Mo Junyi and Di Tian again. If it could be said that he wronged Mo Junyi by sending her to the Emperor Pavilion back then, from a certain perspective, Mo Junyi was no longer worthy of Di Tian. Also, the Jialan Clan and Jialan Qiuyue were both made use of by Di Tian. Mo Ting naturally wouldn't be able to do things as casually as he did in the past.
If Di Tian truly had the heart, Mo Junyi would naturally be his woman. If Di Tian didn't mention it, the Mo Clan wouldn't dare to ask Di Tian to repay the kindness he had shown them in the past.
At this moment, a beautiful figure walked to the side of Di Tian. Jialan Qiuyue was clad in a long blue dress today, appearing extremely beautiful. Her beautiful eyes stared at Di Tian as she smiled, "Vice Palace Lord Di, can I speak a few words with you alone?"
"Qiuyue." Di Tian called out in a low voice, staring at Jialan Qiuyue.
"Jialan Qiuyue, come back." Not far away, Jialan Qiuyue's father, Jialan Cheng, called out. However, Jialan Qiuyue acted like she didn't hear it. She continued to stare at Di Tian.
"Right." Di Tian stood up and brought Jialan Qiuyue to a pavilion. This place was extremely quiet and by sitting there, one could view the scenery of Lifire City from afar. Because the terrain was higher and there were no obstructions, the wind was stronger, causing Jialan Qiuyue's long hair and dress to flutter.
"Vice Palace Lord Di, Grandmaster Di, how should I address you?" Jialan Qiuyue was still smiling. However, her beautiful eyes were filled with resentment. Di Tian naturally could hear it from her voice.
"Qiuyue, why must you be so polite with me? Just call me Di Tian like in the past." Di Tian bitterly smiled. If it was said that he had hatred for the Jialan Clan in the past, now that the Jialan Monarch has already been killed and Ye Qianyu has been rescued, in addition to the fact that he made use of the Jialan Clan and Jialan Qiuyue, Di Tian no longer had any resentment towards the Jialan Clan. This was especially so for Jialan Qiuyue. He always felt some guilt towards her.
Because, he knew that the most talented young miss of the Jialan Clan had truly fallen in love with him.
"Right." Jialan Qiuyue smiled. She suddenly stretched out her hand, wanting to remove Di Tian's mask.
Di Tian's eyes flashed as a terrifying light shot out from them. An unexcelled pressure bore down on Jialan Qiuyue, forcing her to retreat. Di Tian coldly spoke, "Qiuyue, what are you doing?"
Jialan Qiuyue stared at him and smiled, "I want to see you clearly. I want to see what kind of face is hidden beneath your mask, as well as what kind of heart you have."
Di Tian stared at Jialan Qiuyue in a daze. He only saw that her smiling eyes suddenly turned moist as tears flowed down unceasingly. Her emotions of pain and sadness were all completely exposed.
"Qiuyue, don't blame me. Back then, the Jialan Clan forced me to stand on their side. Didn't they use sinister methods as well? What's the difference between that and what I'm doing now?" Di Tian stared at Jialan Qiuyue as he spoke.
"Is that the same?" Jialan Qiuyue's beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Di Tian as tears flowed down unceasingly. The smile on her face had completely vanished, only sadness was left.
"The Jialan Clan did indeed act against you back then, but that was an obvious act of oppression. What about you? You made use of your friendship with the Jialan Clan, my clan helped you so much, I treated you wholeheartedly and even wanted to become your woman. What about you? Leaving aside the matter of repaying me, how did you treat me and my clan? Deceiving me, making use of me. Everything is a lie. "
Jialan Qiuyue sobbed. "During these years, you have been avoiding me. Even if you directly rejected me or acted against my clan, I would still accept it. But, why must you lie to me?"
"If you hate the Jialan Clan for what they did to you back then, you can kill me. I'll also accept it. You can do it now."
Di Tian stared at the aggrieved look on Jialan Qiuyue's face as guilt filled his heart. He shook his head, "There's no need to say anything more. I have my own difficulties as well. In the future, the grudge between me and the Jialan Clan will be erased. As long as the Jialan Clan is willing, we can still be friends."
"Difficulties? Why don't you tell me what your difficulties are?" Jialan Qiuyue's beautiful eyes flickered with stubbornness as she stared at Di Tian. She had fallen too deep. Their relationship had lasted for tens of years. As long as Di Tian was willing, she would have already become his woman. However, everything was overturned in a single day. What did these tens of years count for?
Right now, she only wanted an answer. She hoped that Di Tian really had his own difficulties. If that was the case, she would feel better.
"This concerns a secret, I can't tell you. Qiuyue, you just have to understand that I have no intention of harming you." Di Tian sighed.
"I can help you keep this secret." Jialan Qiuyue continued to stare at Di Tian.
Di Tian shook his head. The implications of this matter were too great. Even if he trusted Jialan Qiuyue, who could guarantee that Jialan Qiuyue wouldn't leak this matter to her clan? Once she did, it would be extremely disadvantageous to him.
Jialan Qiuyue took out a divine weapon that radiated a terrifying sharpness. She placed the weapon on her neck and directly sliced open her skin, causing fresh blood to flow.
"What are you doing?!" Di Tian roared.
"Although my clan didn't punish me, I'm already a sinner of my clan. Now that I've been deceived by you for so many years, my heart is already like dead ashes. If I can't get an answer, I'd rather die." Jialan Qiuyue was incomparably stubborn. The sharp weapon pierced through her skin, causing her blood to drip onto her blue dress, dying it red.
Di Tian's gaze froze. He didn't expect Jialan Qiuyue to be so stubborn.
"If I die, your secret will remain a secret. Can you let me die knowing why?" Jialan Qiuyue spoke.
Di Tian waved his hand as a powerful sealing energy gushed forth, sealing this space. He sighed and spoke to Jialan Qiuyue, "Do you know why Qin Wentian hates the Jialan Monarch so much?"
"There's a huge grudge between the Jialan Monarch and Qin Wentian. I know everything from start to finish. He has a reason to hate my uncle and the Jialan Clan. But does this have anything to do with you?" Jialan Qiuyue asked.
Di Tian placed his hand on his mask and slowly removed it. A handsome face appeared in Jialan Qiuyue's vision. At this moment, Jialan Qiuyue's heart pounded violently. The divine weapon in her hand loosened as it fell to the ground, emitting a crisp sound. Her body trembled uncontrollably, there were no words that could describe her current state of heart.
"Are you satisfied now?" A different voice rang out from Di Tian's mouth. He sighed in his heart. Ultimately, it was still too easy for him to be soft-hearted. He couldn't be as cold and emotionless as before.
…
Night, in the Lifelong Saint Hall, in the courtyard of Princess Kitamura, she stood there and stared at the starry space. She took out her messaging crystal and placed it down.
"He should have already sat on the throne of the Lifelong Saint Hall. Right now, he should be the center of attention. He must be very busy." Princess Kitamura smiled. After that, she kept her messaging crystal and didn't congratulate Di Tian.
A figure appeared behind Princess Kitamura. Princess Kitamura turned and stared at the person who came, "Realmlord."
"Youhuang, Qin Wentian has already ascended to the Realmlord's throne. Right now, the Lifire Palace is extremely lively. I've sent Ye Qianyu back as well, I hope he won't blame me." The Lifelong Realmlord smiled. He had always felt that Princess Kitamura and Qin Wentian had a relationship of apprentice-sister and brother. He believed that if he bestowed the position of the Lifire Palace Lord and released Ye Qianyu, Qin Wentian would surely be filled with gratitude, right?
"Naturally, I'll thank Realmlord on behalf of junior apprentice-brother Qin." Princess Kitamura smiled.
The Lifelong Realmlord waved his hand, "You are my woman, there's no need to be so polite. Let's not waste the beautiful scenery tonight. Youhuang, come with me to my palace."
"Realmlord, the title hasn't been confirmed yet. It's inappropriate." Princess Kitamura spoke in a light voice.
"You are right, I was too anxious. After living for so many years, I still can't resist the temptation of beauties." The Lifelong Realmlord shook his head. "Since this is the case, during the next grand banquet, I will announce it to the world and bestow you with a title!"
