Jing Yu and Yan Qi walked to the front of Qin Wentian, scrutinizing him. Because of Qin Wentian's transformation, although they were facing Qin Wentian, they only felt that there was a slight resemblance, but they didn't dare to confirm it.
And now, standing in front of Qin Wentian, scrutinizing him, they finally confirmed that this was indeed the young man from Chu.
As men, back then when they first met Mo Qingcheng, they already had a trace of admiration in their hearts. Hence, they felt a trace of enmity towards Qin Wentian, and remembered him even more clearly. As for Bai Fei, because she had never looked at Qin Wentian directly, her impression of Qin Wentian wasn't as deep as Jing Yu and Yan Qi.
"So it's really you." Hints of mockery could be seen flickering in their eyes.
Qin Wentian naturally noticed them as well, but he only casually swept a glance at them before continuing his gaze ahead.
"Return to Chu, this isn't a place you should be at." Jing Yu calmly spoke, there was no insult, no contempt, he was merely trying to persuade Qin Wentian. If it was in the past, he might have insulted Qin Wentian. But now, in front of Mo Qingcheng, he could only raise his head in admiration. What qualifications did he have to humiliate Qin Wentian?
Wasn't there some similarities between him and Qin Wentian?
Qin Wentian didn't look at Jing Yu. In the world of cultivation, the hierarchy was extremely strict. Every level higher could cause one to collapse. And the Pill Emperor Hall stood at the pinnacle of the Moon Continent, just like the great hall in front of them. The pressure it exerted was so great that it was difficult to even breathe.
However, his gaze was extremely calm. No matter how high the great hall was, there would always be people who could trample it beneath their feet.
"Infatuation also depends on who you are looking at. If you know it's impossible, why place your hopes on her? The difference between you and her in the past is too great." Jing Yu continued. These words seemed to be directed at Qin Wentian, but also seemed to be a warning to himself.
Upon seeing that Qin Wentian didn't seem to have heard Jing Yu's words, Yan Qi couldn't help but to laugh coldly. Walking towards Qin Wentian, he stared at him with disdain as he stated, "The Pill Emperor Hall has a total of ninety-nine flights of steps. Even the person standing at the bottom of the flight of steps is someone you have to look up to, yet you are still daydreaming here. Let me remind you again out of goodwill, scram. If not, if you dare to profane her, the consequences will be something you won't be able to bear."
Qin Wentian turned around slowly and looked at Yan Qi. A golden bolt of lightning suddenly appeared in his eyes and pierced through Yan Qi's eyes.
"BOOM!" Yan Qi only felt his mind trembling violently. It was as though a primordial beast was brandishing its terrifying claws, wanting to tear him into pieces. Just a single gaze from Qin Wentian caused him to involuntarily retreat a few steps. His countenance paled as beads of perspiration appeared on his forehead.
An overwhelming aura gushed forth from his body as he stared at Qin Wentian, only to see Qin Wentian shifting his gaze away. It was as though Qin Wentian wasn't looking at him at all.
This caused Yan Qi's countenance to turn ashen. He had actually been frightened by a single gaze from Qin Wentian. How could this be?
Jing Yu also noticed Yan Qi's abnormality. His eyes flickered, but at this moment, a sharp glint of light shot towards them from behind. Yan Qi and Jing Yu both turned their gazes over, only to see a scholarly and refined silhouette. Their eyes instantly flickered with a hint of respect.
It was their Senior Brother Zhan Chen, ranked # 11 on the Heavenly Fate Rankings.
If there was someone in the Pill Emperor Hall who was worthy of Mo Qingcheng, it would definitely be their Senior Brother Zhan Chen.
As Zhan Chen walked over, Jing Yu and Yan Qi hurriedly gave way to him. When they looked at Zhan Chen, a hint of respect flashed in their eyes as they greeted, "Senior Brother."
"Mhm." Zhan Chen lightly nodded his head. His gaze was fixated on Qin Wentian, and Qin Wentian was also looking at him. The killing intent of a character ranked # 11 on the Heavenly Fate Rankings hadn't lessened in the slightest.
Zhan Chen was somewhat bewildered, he didn't know why Qin Wentian would come to the Pill Emperor Hall.
Back then when his secret was exposed by Qin Wentian, he had always harbored killing intent towards Qin Wentian. Now that Qin Wentian had come to the Pill Emperor Hall, how could he not be on guard?
However, Zhan Chen wasn't afraid that Qin Wentian would reveal the truth. If Qin Wentian dared to say it, he would definitely deny it outright and spare no expense to kill Qin Wentian. After all, in the Pill Emperor Hall, he still had some prestige.
This point, Qin Wentian should also understand. Hence, he wouldn't dare to reveal the truth so easily. The moment he did, between the two of them, one of them would have to die. And the one who would die would naturally be Qin Wentian.
Although Qin Wentian stood there calmly, there were hints of wariness in his heart. This Zhan Chen might appear to be a scholarly and scholarly person, but he was extremely good at disguising himself. Now that his strength was inferior to Zhan Chen's, he naturally had to be wary of this person.
"I just heard that you caused quite a commotion in the Eastern Domain," Zhan Chen laughed, as though he and Qin Wentian were good friends who hadn't seen each other for a very long time.
Qin Wentian met his gaze calmly, but he didn't reply.
At this moment, a terrifying aura gushed forth from Zhan Chen's body, as a fearsome sword intent bore down on Qin Wentian, wanting to penetrate through his body.
"But, what are you doing here in the Pill Emperor Hall?" As the sound of Zhan Chen's voice faded, he took a step forward. This step instantly caused an immense pressure to weigh down on Qin Wentian, as though with a single thought, he would kill Qin Wentian on the spot.
"If you take another step forward, I can guarantee that you will regret it."
Qin Wentian spoke in an indifferent tone, as light as the wind and as light as the clouds. His calm voice caused the hearts of Jing Yu and Yan Qi to tremble.
Qin Wentian actually dared to speak such arrogant words to their Senior Brother Zhan Chen?
Not only that, it was obvious that Zhan Chen was acquainted with Qin Wentian, and the two of them had a grudge.
Zhan Chen halted his steps. Up till now, Qin Wentian hadn't revealed his secret, because even if he did, it wouldn't be of any use. On the contrary, it would only make Zhan Chen pay any price to kill him. However, if he forced Qin Wentian too far, there was no doubt that Qin Wentian would reveal his secret without hesitation. Although not many would believe it, it would be sufficient to heavily damage Zhan Chen's reputation. And once someone in the Pill Emperor Hall suspected him, his reputation would be severely damaged.
Hence, unless he could kill Qin Wentian before Qin Wentian spoke, he wouldn't take the risk. Not only that, Bailu Yi had also heard the conversation.
Retracting his aura, Zhan Chen smiled, "I forgot that you've already become the youngest fourth-ranked Grandmaster in the Moon Continent. Your attitude has indeed changed. However, Divine Inscriptions are still Divine Inscriptions. If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn't even need five breaths of time. Remember to be more careful in the future."
Even though it was a threat, Zhan Chen still spoke with a smile on his face.
Jing Yu and Yan Qi felt their hearts trembling. Qin Wentian was the youngest fourth-ranked Grandmaster in the Moon Continent? What was going on? A minor character from Chu back then, why did even their Senior Brother Zhan Chen suddenly feel trepidation towards him?
"I heard that there's a huge gap between the Yuanfu Realm and Heavenly Dipper Realm. I hope you can cross this gap as soon as possible, "Qin Wentian calmly stated to Zhan Chen." If you stay at the Yuanfu Realm for too long, I'm afraid that when you meet me in the future, you will have to avoid me. "
After speaking, Qin Wentian slowly turned and walked away with his back facing Zhan Chen.
A terrifying sword intent abruptly gushed forth, yet Qin Wentian continued walking forward calmly, with his back facing Zhan Chen. He had no fear, or rather, disregard for Qin Wentian.
A terrifying light flickered in Zhan Chen's eyes as the sword intent radiating from him gradually dissipated. His silhouette also gradually disappeared from sight.
Jing Yu and Yan Qi, who were standing at the side, were dumbfounded as they watched this scene unfold. Qin Wentian actually dared to speak to their Senior Brother Zhan Chen in such a manner?
That young man from a small country didn't even bother to look at them.
"Are you guys acquainted with him?" Zhan Chen indifferently asked.
"Yes, he's from Chu and had a very good relationship with Junior Sister Qingcheng. Today, I'm afraid he's here because of her." Jing Yu didn't say that they were lovers, but Zhan Chen understood. The light in his eyes grew even sharper.
"Don't tell Qingcheng." Zhan Chen calmly stated. Mo Qingcheng had always been cultivating in the Pill Emperor Hall and didn't really care about the matters of the outside world. Zhan Chen hoped that she would never know of Qin Wentian's existence until he died.
After Qin Wentian left the Pill Emperor Hall, he arrived at the branch of the Thousand-Jue Alliance in the Moon Continent. Upon seeing the Thousand-Jue Token of Qin Wentian, someone immediately reported to him. Very quickly, the charming young lady personally came out to receive him.
"Grandmaster Qin, you came so quickly." Upon seeing Qin Wentian, a warm smile appeared in her eyes.
"I wish to seek help from the Thousand-Jue Alliance." Qin Wentian smiled. The other party nodded, "You are a guest elder of the Fifth-Jue Alliance. As long as you have the authority, the Thousand-Jue Alliance will help you unconditionally."
Qin Wentian nodded as he retrieved a list of items and passed it to the other party. "I need the items on this list. How many Yuan Meteor Stones do you need? I will pay for it."
"Okay, leave it to me. After the matter is settled, I will order my men to send it to the White Deer Institute. You can then pay him the Yuan Meteor Stones." The young lady glanced at the items on the list before keeping them.
"Okay, in addition, I still need to inquire about a certain person," Qin Wentian spoke as he moved his lips to the side of the young lady's ear, whispering in a low voice, "Hua Xiaoyun."
A strange light flashed in the eyes of the young lady as she nodded her head, "Don't worry, the request of a guest elder of the Thousand-Jue Alliance is absolutely confidential. I will handle this matter personally."
"Many thanks for your help. If there are any expenses incurred, I will bear them myself." Qin Wentian smiled. If he wanted to ask for help, he would have to bear the expenses himself.
"No need, just provide the information and the Thousand-Jue Alliance will bear the expenses." The young lady smiled. Qin Wentian didn't insist, he bade farewell and left the place.
At the same time, Hua Xiaoyun, whom Qin Wentian had inquired about, appeared at the mysterious Shadow Tower in the Moon Continent.
Within the Shadow Tower, the person sitting opposite to Hua Xiaoyun was flipping through a stack of documents. Since Qin Wentian came from a foreign land, it would be somewhat troublesome to investigate him. However, Hua Xiaoyun had provided them with a clue. Chu.
"Sir, over here." The person sitting opposite to Hua Xiaoyun flipped through the documents as his eyes gradually brightened. "Qin Wentian hails from Chu.
"Qin Wentian hails from Chu. The last time he revealed his cultivation base was during the Refinement Grounds of Divine Inscriptions. At that time, he was only at the third level of Yuanfu. Now, he might have already broken through to the fourth level of Yuanfu. He's a fourth-ranked Grandmaster and has a Heavenly Dipper Sovereign protecting him. At the same time, he acquired two fourth-ranked Puppets and killed several fourth-ranked Grandmasters in the White Deer Institute. Not long ago, he also killed Leng Mao from the Leng Clan using his Divine Inscriptions and Puppets."
The sinister-looking man sitting opposite to Hua Xiaoyun slowly explained, his words causing Hua Xiaoyun's countenance to sink as his countenance turned incredibly unsightly to behold.
Coming from Chu, and having a Heavenly Dipper Sovereign protecting him, there was no doubt about it. But now, he had already become a fourth-ranked Grandmaster, and even had a fourth-ranked Puppet.
"I want him dead," Hua Xiaoyun coldly stated.
The sinister-looking man laughed, "Please wait a moment."
After which, he left the room for a few moments, and when he returned, he passed a piece of paper to Hua Xiaoyun. "You can accept the mission, this is the remuneration you need. Ten percent up front, no refunds. After the mission is completed, you can pay the remaining ninety percent."
Hua Xiaoyun glanced at the paper as his countenance stiffened. "Is there a need to pay such a high price to kill a Yuanfu cultivator?"
"Young Master Hua, you can do it yourself." The sinister-looking man laughed, causing Hua Xiaoyun's countenance to turn incredibly ugly. Now that his status in the Hua Clan had fallen, if he directly sent people to kill Qin Wentian, the Hua Clan would definitely not agree. After all, no matter what, Qin Wentian was Mo Qingcheng's lover. Who knew what Mo Qingcheng's attitude would be?
Unless, of course, his elder brother Hua Taixu wanted Qin Wentian dead.
"I agree." Hua Xiaoyun gritted his teeth, as he retrieved a large amount of Yuan Meteor Stones from his interspatial ring. His heart ached in pain; if he killed Qin Wentian, he would have to expend all the money he had accumulated over the years.
After Hua Xiaoyun left, a cold glint of light flashed in the eyes of the sinister-looking man as he laughed, "I heard that Qin Wentian rejected the goodwill of the Weaponsmith Hall not long ago. If not for that, we wouldn't have dared to touch him.
