The fragrance of the wine permeated the nostrils. Clearly, this wine was much better compared to the wine they drank earlier. When it entered their stomachs, they felt a scorching heat before it transformed into a clear current that circulated throughout their bodies, causing them to feel incomparably carefree.
Qin Wentian and the others only drank a small mouthful before they involuntarily praised, "Good wine."
"This wine is truly good. The inn's boss kept it for himself." Jun Mengchen laughed. Little Rascal hugged the bowl and started gulping down the wine, looking extremely adorable.
"This inn's boss is truly an interesting character." Qin Wentian laughed. Using world stones to order food and wine, yet it was inferior to the wine he gave away. What would the other customers think of this? However, the other party clearly didn't care about this. Although he didn't show his face, he gave them good wine and dishes. He was truly an interesting character.
Before this, there were people who said that this inn's boss and the world overlord who invited him earlier were all extraordinary characters and told him to seek help from them. Right now, both of them have expressed their stances. The Absolute Beginning Overlord was clearly arrogant and had a lofty view of himself. Compared to him, this inn's boss caused Qin Wentian to be more interested in him. It wasn't that he was biased towards the inn's boss because he gave him some benefits. Although the food and wine were good, it was merely a minor matter to him. As long as the two of them had the same attitude, Qin Wentian would naturally like the inn's boss more.
The group of people enjoyed the banquet. There were many world overlords who came and left the Ten Miles Inn. The name of the Qingcheng Realmlord also began to circulate around Time City. Right now, many people outside the inn were discussing about this Qingcheng Realmlord. That expert from the Heaven Immortal Tower brought Qin Wentian away, he directly rejected the invitation of the little princess of the Donghuang Clan and didn't seek protection from others. It seemed like he was extremely arrogant. But after that, he killed three world overlords in a single battle, causing the Heaven Immortal Tower's promise of treasures to fall through. Now, no one dared to challenge him again.
Who knew how powerful a transcendent-level world overlord like the Qingcheng Realmlord was exactly? That battle where he killed three world overlords wasn't a one-sided slaughter, it was a domineering insta-kill. For the sake of a treasure, he might even lose his life. It wasn't worth the risk. For experts who could kill transcendent-level world overlords, the temptation of the Heaven Immortal Tower's treasures wasn't that great.
In addition, it was said that the Absolute Beginning Overlord was also staying in that inn. He personally invited Qin Wentian to his place for a chat but was rejected by Qin Wentian. The Absolute Beginning Overlord was in a bad mood but the boss of the Ten Miles Inn actually gave him wine for free for the Qingcheng Realmlord to enjoy. This matter soon circulated, causing the name of the Qingcheng Realmlord to become extremely famous in Time City.
Naturally, the people of Time City didn't feel too surprised. To the people of Time City, this was merely the norm in history. Before the commencement of every convention, there would always be someone who rose to fame and attracted the attention of others. This convention naturally wouldn't be an exception. The Qingcheng Realmlord wasn't the only one. At this moment, in other locations in Time City, there were also some things happening. There were some world overlords who displayed their brilliance.
However, the people of Time City paid more attention to those powerful existences who were already famous in history. For those legendary characters, each of them had a soul-stirring story. For a newcomer like the Qingcheng Realmlord, he was merely a pursuer, inheriting the path of the predecessors. It was just that no one knew what heights he would reach in the future.
Many people were paying attention to the movements in the Dragon Pool Manor. The Heaven Immortal Tower's plan was dissolved in a single battle. In that case, what should they do next?
Could it be that the Dragon Pool Manor would personally send a powerful world overlord to suppress the Qingcheng Realmlord?
At this moment, in a courtyard in the Dragon Pool Manor, a young world overlord stood there with his hands clasped behind his back. His aura was extraordinary and his entire person radiated a formless might.
His name was Longyuan Haoyu and he was a genius world overlord of the Dragon Pool Manor. His status was extraordinary and Jin Zhi was one of the many women he had. For a character like him, it was extremely normal for him to have many beauties. Everyone has desires, world overlords are humans as well, there was no exception. He had never married, but could it be that he wouldn't touch women? This was clearly impossible.
Naturally, women to him weren't too important. Back then, Jin Zhi took the initiative to tempt him and he didn't reject her. After that, he arranged for Jin Zhi to work in the Heaven Immortal Tower and only a few people knew that Jin Zhi was his woman. For such a matter, he naturally wouldn't publicize it. Jin Zhi wasn't qualified to become his future wife and he also didn't have deep feelings for her.
But even so, his woman naturally wasn't someone anyone could humiliate, let alone being abducted by someone else. He didn't want to admit it, but it was also a fact that the Qingcheng Realmlord had smacked his face and even caused the Heaven Immortal Tower to lose some face. Hence, he invited an elder in his clan who was in charge of the Heaven Immortal Tower to issue an order. This order was none other than the order he issued earlier.
But even so, he didn't care too much about it. To him, this was merely a minor matter. As long as he captured Qin Wentian, he would be able to humiliate Qin Wentian and regain the face of the Heaven Immortal Tower. But the problem was that not only did he fail to accomplish this minor matter, this news actually circulated around because the person the Heaven Immortal Tower wanted to deal with was a transcendent-level world overlord who insta-killed three world overlords in a single battle.
This matter even circulated around Time City, causing a huge commotion. That Qingcheng Realmlord borrowed the power of their Heaven Immortal Tower and instantly became famous. Many people were waiting for the Heaven Immortal Tower, or more accurately, for the Dragon Yuan Clan's attitude.
"Haoyu." A voice drifted over. Longyuan Haoyu's eyes flashed as he replied through the air, "Uncle."
"Next, what are your thoughts? How do you intend to handle this matter? Right now, even your father already knows about this matter but he didn't ask about it. After all, this matter was caused by you. That woman should be one of your people, right?" A voice rang out in Longyuan Haoyu's mind. Since such a thing happened, it was naturally impossible to hide it from his elders.
"I'll go meet that Qingcheng Realmlord." Longyuan Haoyu spoke.
"Right." The other party replied. After that, there was no more sound. Although Longyuan Haoyu was his junior, he was also an expert at the world overlord realm. There was naturally no need for him to handle everything. In the future, everything in the clan would be passed down to the later generations.
They didn't send anyone to suppress Qin Wentian. Because, even if their Dragon Yuan Clan could do it, would a major power in Time City be able to suppress a transcendent-level world overlord who participated in the Convention of the Myriad Realms for the sake of a serving girl? Would their reputation be good? Would they be able to redeem the face of the Heaven Immortal Tower? Most probably, people would only criticize them, thinking that the Dragon Pool Clan didn't follow the rules when doing things. Don't forget that the cause of this matter was because that serving girl first berated the wife of the transcendent-level world overlord.
The wife of a transcendent-level world overlord, how could a serving girl from the Heaven Immortal Tower casually berate her? Could it be that because the Heaven Immortal Tower belonged to the Dragon Pool Manor, they can be so tyrannical?
If the Dragon Pool Manor continued to issue such an order, they would only be criticized by others.
Hence, after that, the Heaven Immortal Tower didn't make any movements. The Dragon Pool Manor was very calm as well, like they had forgotten about this matter. In fact, some people even felt that this matter would end here. Both parties would treat it as though nothing had happened and no longer pursue the matter. A serving girl offended a transcendent-level world overlord and was captured. How could a transcendent-level world overlord not have any temper?
Qin Wentian who initially thought there would be more trouble actually spent a few days in peace. Jin Zhi also didn't have any temper at all. She was treated as a serving girl and served by his side. She was on the verge of despair. Did he give up on her just like that?
Today, Qin Wentian was in his courtyard when he suddenly frowned. After that, he asked, "Who is it?"
"Longyuan Haoyu." A voice drifted over. Qin Wentian's eyes flashed. Have the people from the Dragon Pool Clan arrived?
"Come in." Qin Wentian calmly spoke. After that, the figure of a young man appeared before him. It was none other than Longyuan Haoyu.
A figure flashed over. Jin Zhi had a look of joy on her face when she saw who it was. She called out, "Haoyu!"
Longyuan Haoyu calmly glanced at her before shifting his gaze away. Just a single glance from him caused Jin Zhi to feel her entire body turning cold, like she had fallen into an ice cellar.
Jun Mengchen and the others respectively walked over. They stared at this uninvited guest with wariness in their eyes. This young man's aura was very strong and his surname was Longyuan. Clearly, he came from that place. During these days, they have heard of the Dragon Pool Manor's name many times.
"Qingcheng Realmlord." Longyuan Haoyu stared at Qin Wentian. "Recently, your fame has been extremely resounding in Time City."
"Just speak your mind." Qin Wentian stared at him as he spoke.
"Sure." Longyuan Haoyu nodded lightly. "You brought that person away from my Heaven Immortal Tower, making things difficult for my Dragon Pool Manor. Why don't we both take a step back? You send that person back to the Heaven Immortal Tower and the Heaven Immortal Tower will allow you to choose a divine weapon or accessory. Both sides would have a way out of this embarrassing situation. How about it?"
Qin Wentian stared at Longyuan Haoyu as he coldly laughed in his heart. Wanting him to send the person back first meant that he had to compromise first and the Heaven Immortal Tower would give him a treasure.
"Why don't the Heaven Immortal Tower send the treasure here as an apology first before I release the person? Although the cause of this matter was caused by this woman, if the Heaven Immortal Tower was fair and allowed her to apologize, I wouldn't have pursued this matter any further." Qin Wentian replied. He didn't have any objections to both sides having a way out of this embarrassing situation. But there was no reason for him to compromise first.
The meaning behind this was completely different.
"Sir, why must you do this? My Dragon Pool Manor has been established in Time City for many years and no matter what, we have some reputation." Longyuan Haoyu spoke.
"So, given how powerful the Dragon Pool Manor is, I should take a step back, right?" Qin Wentian smiled. "Actually, there's no need to be so troublesome. Before this, I've already said this before in the Heaven Immortal Tower. I have no intention to make things difficult for the Heaven Immortal Tower or the Dragon Pool Manor. The person who insulted my wife was this serving girl, hence, I captured her. She should pay the price for her actions. As for the Heaven Immortal Tower's reputation being tarnished because of this, I'll just treat it as though nothing has happened."
"In that case, sir, you don't intend to take a step back?" Longyuan Haoyu frowned. He had personally made a trip here but this Qingcheng Realmlord still had such an attitude.
"If you came here to make me compromise, you can leave now." Qin Wentian impolitely spoke. He already said that he wouldn't pursue the matter of the Heaven Immortal Tower giving the order and both sides could be considered to have let bygones be bygones. This was him taking a step back and he also didn't want the matter to blow up. However, the Dragon Pool Manor wanted him to send the person who insulted Qingcheng back.
Was this the attitude of the Dragon Pool Manor?
If this was the case, he would play along with them!
