That devilishly handsome silhouette, a great roc.
And the nine ultimate arts of Grand Xia, the Bloodcurse Imprint and Stellar Transposition. Although Qin Wentian wasn't proficient in any of the nine ultimate arts, now that he had obtained the Divine Stele, he should be the same as Ouyang Kuangsheng and the others, proficient in any of the nine ultimate arts.
As he thought of this, Chen Wang inclined his head and stared at the silhouette standing on the back of the great roc. His heart pounded violently as his countenance instantly turned pale.
It was him.
It had to be him.
He didn't die in the Pill Emperor Hall. Now, he had transformed into another person and returned.
His bloodline seemed to have grown even stronger, like the sovereign of all demons. The eruption of his bloodline actually allowed him to break through the limits of his cultivation base, exuding the aura of a third level Heavenly Dipper Sovereign.
Thinking of this person's combat prowess, Chen Wang abruptly called out to Chen Xiao, "It's Qin Wentian, Uncle Xiao, let's go!"
"Qin Wentian." Upon hearing this name, Chen Xiao's heart trembled. This name was simply too familiar. Over a year ago, which corner of Grand Xia wasn't talking about the top ranker of the Heavenly Fate Rankings, Qin Wentian? This person was actually Qin Wentian?
A supreme sharpness erupted forth as the King's Sword manifested. This was none other than Qin Wentian's Astral Nova.
"Peng!" Stellar Transposition, Qin Wentian vanished from sight with the King's Sword in his hand. Chen Xiao's countenance drastically changed as he too executed Stellar Transposition, turning and fleeing. The two of them transformed into motes of astral light, and finally, the keening of a sword rang out as fresh blood splattered down from the skies.
A silhouette whistled past as Chen Xiao descended from the skies. This person had a cultivation base at the fourth level of Heavenly Dipper, if he fought against Qin Wentian head-on, he might be able to hold out for some time. However, the first thing he thought of was to flee. Under the effect of Stellar Transposition, Qin Wentian's tyrannical perception captured every movement of his. His Mandate of Sword Melody erupted forth, severing his life.
At the instant Chen Xiao fled, Chen Wang had already fled in the opposite direction, yet he was intercepted by the great roc. The speed of the great roc was exceedingly fast, it actually managed to delay Chen Wang for a few moments. At this moment, Qin Wentian descended from the skies, walking towards Chen Wang with unmasked killing intent in his eyes.
"Qin Wentian, if you let me go today, I will definitely convince my clan to let the grudges between us be written off." Chen Wang stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke. At this moment, the most important thing to him was to preserve his life. Earlier when he was defeated in the hands of Qin Wentian, he didn't hesitate to use a life-saving technique. Because of this, in addition to the fact that Chen Xiao was at the fourth level of Heavenly Dipper, he chased after Qin Wentian to kill him.
Yet, he had never imagined that his opponent would be Qin Wentian. He had been concealing his true strength, and now, it was already too late for regrets.
If he knew that this person was Qin Wentian, he wouldn't have chased after him to this extent.
Sword intent permeated the air, Qin Wentian didn't reply to Chen Wang. Stepping out, a stifling pressure enveloped Chen Wang.
Although he had lured Chen Wang and Chen Xiao away from the others, he still had to kill them as soon as possible. In this world, anything could happen. Back then when he ascended the Pill Emperor Hall, who would have thought that he would be able to cleave the Pill Emperor Hall into two with a single strike? Hence, he could be arrogant, but he wouldn't underestimate his opponent.
"Peng!"
Astral light erupted as Chen Wang's silhouette abruptly appeared in front of Qin Wentian. The Lava Giant dashed out, transforming into liquid lava as it lunged towards Qin Wentian. Chen Wang wasn't a benevolent person, he had already prepared himself for the worst when he spoke.
"Bzzz!"
The wind whistled as Qin Wentian's sword flashed, piercing through Chen Wang's throat.
Chen Wang's body stiffened as he clutched his throat with both hands. An expression of unwillingness could be seen in his eyes.
He was unwilling, he was Chen Wang, a Heaven's Chosen of the Chen Clan.
He was unwilling, he had the potential to become the future leader of the Chen Clan. He had already obtained an ancient medallion, he would have the chance to leave Grand Xia and head to the sacred ground to temper himself.
But now, the arrogant him was about to die.
When he thought back to the past, everything felt like a dream. Ever since he heard of Qin Wentian's name, his life seemed to have changed. It was like a nightmare.
He still remembered the first time he met Qin Wentian. It should have been at the Chen Clan. From afar, he cast a glance at Qin Wentian who had entered the Chen Clan together with the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan. Qin Wentian had challenged a few youths from the Chen Clan, displaying his extraordinary strength. But at that time, he didn't even bother to look at Qin Wentian. Never would he have imagined that the weak-looking young man would become his nightmare.
After that, Qin Wentian started to display his brilliance in the Heavenly Fate Rankings, defeating him and claiming the first position. From then on, he, Chen Wang, had to live in the shadow of Qin Wentian, and now, he had to live in the shadow of Qin Wentian.
Before his death, he suddenly thought of a sentence. How many outstanding characters were there in Grand Xia, but how many of them could stand at the peak, looking down on all the other mountains?
Chen Wang closed his eyes as his body descended from the air. Qin Wentian's silhouette flickered, and with a wave of his hand, Chen Wang's body was swept up into the air. After which, Qin Wentian carried Chen Xiao's body with him as well. Only after that did he land on the back of the great roc and soared up into the clouds, flying towards the horizons.
A day later, the news of yesterday's battle shook the entire Ginkou Continent. Ouyang Kuangsheng and the majority of the experts returned safely to their respective clans. However, the experts from the Chen Clan, Hua Clan, Wang Clan, as well as the Nine Mystical Palace, didn't return.
In a battle between transcendent powers, it would still be fine if both sides were in dire straits. But when one side was completely annihilated, the atmosphere was extremely heavy. Before the start of the Heavenly Fate Rankings, it was as though a storm was brewing in the air.
Especially in the midst of the Great Solar Chen Clan, there was an extremely conspicuous character – Chen Wang.
The Heaven's Chosen of the Great Solar Chen Clan, Chen Wang, had disappeared and never returned. It was rumored that before he disappeared, he had sent out a distress signal. After which, the members of the Chen Clan broke out of the encirclement to search for him, yet they couldn't find him. Not even his corpse was found. Even a fourth-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereign, Chen Xiao, who had gone to search for Chen Wang, had never returned.
Although Chen Wang's radiance was suppressed by Hua Taixu and Qin Wentian, he was still the second ranker of the Heavenly Fate Rankings for two consecutive years. There was no need to doubt that he was a Heaven's Chosen, and he was one of the candidates to become the future leader of the Great Solar Chen Clan. His disappearance, one could very well imagine what kind of storm it would create. Right now, the Ouyang Aristocrat Clan and the other transcendent powers were all locked in their doors, and were even sending experts from their own clans to deal with the situation.
Most probably, the Great Solar Chen Clan was already discussing their next move.
Within the Great Solar Chen Clan, in a majestic great hall, several silhouettes were gathered. The person in the lead had a dignified countenance, yet a sinister look could be seen in his eyes.
"Has the investigation been completed?" That person asked.
"Not yet, we're currently keeping an eye on those who participated in the battle, and are preparing to hunt them down at any moment." Chen Fan replied.
"Mhm." The person in the lead nodded his head lightly. Chen Wang had already died, there was no doubt about this point. However, they had to find out who the culprit was.
"Since Chen Wang has already died, prepare to select a new successor to be nurtured. Also, the medallion on Chen Wang's body must be recovered at all costs."
"Yes." Everyone nodded their heads, they understood the importance of the medallion on Chen Wang's body. They absolutely couldn't lose it.
"Who would have thought that such a thing would happen so soon after the medallion was bestowed to Chen Wang. Seems like they were after the medallion. If not, who would be able to kill Chen Wang and Chen Xiao?" Someone stated, his words causing many to nod their heads in agreement. Maybe this conflict was a plot against the medallion. If that was the case, things would be even more troublesome.
"First, prepare to control those who participated in the battle yesterday. We'll know after we interrogate a few more people. If there's really someone who is after the medallion, we have to find out which power it is. This medallion isn't something they can swallow for themselves." The person in the lead commanded.
The Ouyang Aristocrat Clan, Mystic Moon Sect, Jiang Clan, as well as the other transcendent powers, had been in seclusion for the past few days. They had never imagined that Chen Wang would die. Not only that, the Chen Clan seemed to have mobilized a terrifying force to monitor their movements. It was as though they were truly enraged. At this moment, they had to be extremely careful.
However, the Chen Clan didn't dare to launch an all-out war so easily. They were very clear on how terrifying the consequences would be if they started a war. No one dared to be careless.
To Qin Wentian, he still didn't know what happened in Ginkou.
At this moment, he was arranging the resources he obtained from the interspatial ring. Naturally, the majority of them were Yuan Meteor Stones. Stellar Martial Cultivators needed to accumulate Yuan Meteor Stones for their cultivation. The higher their cultivation base, the more Yuan Meteor Stones they would need. Yesterday, after killing so many Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns, the amount of Yuan Meteor Stones he obtained had greatly surprised him. At the same time, there were also many other innate techniques and treasures. However, to him, there weren't many that he could use.
At this moment, an ancient medallion appeared in Qin Wentian's hands. This medallion emanated an extremely mysterious aura, as though it was extraordinary.
This medallion was obtained from Chen Wang. Qin Wentian didn't know what use it had, but he knew that Chen Wang had placed the medallion in the best location in his interspatial ring. From this, one could tell how important this medallion was to Chen Wang.
Qin Wentian's eyes flickered. He was no longer a greenhorn, and had experienced many things over the years. He could clearly sense how extraordinary this medallion was.
Attempting to probe the medallion with his consciousness, Qin Wentian discovered that he couldn't do so at all. There was a mysterious energy blocking his consciousness from entering the medallion.
"Since Chen Wang placed so much importance on this medallion, I should capture an expert from the Chen Clan and interrogate him." Qin Wentian kept the medallion and stood up. His silhouette flickered as he once again sped towards Ginkou. The lines on his face wriggled as Little Rascal transformed into a demonic lion, making it less conspicuous.
After yesterday's battle, he still didn't know what the situation was like in Ginkou. He naturally had to be more careful!
