After Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng left the Human Emperor's chamber, the Human Emperor and the others all had smiles on their faces as they stared at their departing silhouettes.
"These two little fellows are truly like glue." The Empress sat beside the bed of the Human Emperor. Her slender and warm palms gently caressed the Human Emperor's face. Most probably, only she could be so intimate with the Human Emperor.
"Are you thinking about us in the past again?" The Human Emperor held the hands of the Empress as he smiled. An apologetic look could be seen in his eyes. Once, the two of them were lovers in the mortal world. After that, he broke through to Celestial Phenomenon and was chosen as a candidate for the position of the Human Emperor. He finally defeated all his competitors and officially became the crown prince of an ancient country. Many years later, his martial prowess was unrivalled in Ye and he ascended to the throne.
After becoming the Human Emperor, he had to suppress the various kings and kings as well as unify the ancient country. Most importantly, his cultivation base couldn't fall behind. This was the foundation of him becoming the Human Emperor. Only with martial prowess would he be able to shake the world. This was also the reason why he was willing to appoint Qin Wentian as the crown prince. He knew very well that given the talent of his sons, it would be impossible for them to suppress the various kings and their descendants.
Because of this, he naturally neglected the Empress. During these years, he didn't have much time to accompany her. But now that he was seriously ill, the Empress had to take care of him all day, not leaving his side for even a moment. This was somewhat ironic, but it also caused him to feel touched in his heart.
"Wentian and Qingcheng, they are even more outstanding compared to us in the past." The Empress clasped the Human Emperor's hands tightly as a gentle light flashed in her eyes.
The Human Emperor nodded his head. He also felt that the accomplishments of Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng would surpass him sooner or later. His ambition wasn't to unify the ancient country.
This matter soon circulated out. After the various kings learned that the Human Emperor had accepted Qin Wentian as his foster son, they couldn't help but to investigate Qin Wentian's identity while coldly laughing in their hearts. As a disciple of the Battle Sword Sect, it was one thing for him to protect Ye Lingshuang. But now, he actually dared to interfere in the affairs of the royal clan of Ye? How audacious. Did he think that just because of his relationship with Mo Qingcheng, he could disregard the various kings and kings?
Ye Kongfan originally already hated Qin Wentian in his heart. After hearing this news, the killing intent in his heart grew even stronger. This Qin Wentian was truly lawless, he actually dared to take the Human Emperor as his foster father?
With regards to the reactions of the crowd, Qin Wentian didn't really care about it. He only felt that he and the Human Emperor were kindred spirits. Given the Human Emperor's status, it wasn't overboard for the Human Emperor to request for him to be his godson. In addition, the Human Emperor also knew of Qin Wentian's current condition. He was slowly recovering, which was why he made such a request. If not, if the Human Emperor didn't have long to live, he wouldn't have made such a request to Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian and thought, Qin Wentian. The Human Wentian Ye, Ye. Yu, the Emperor's Wentian's face, Chen's King, the Emperor's, and the Qin's King, Chen's Chen's the Human Emperor., the Emperor Emperor, Chen Emperor, the King, Family, the Chen, the Emperor.
Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng strolled through the royal palace of the Ye Country. Upon seeing the people following behind them, Mo Qingcheng suddenly smiled at Qin Wentian, "Shall we go to the Ye Country for a stroll?"
Qin Wentian stared at Mo Qingcheng's bright eyes, his heart as clear as a mirror. He understood Mo Qingcheng's intentions. Most probably, she also wanted to be like an ordinary person, accompanying the person she loved to stroll around the world, experiencing simple happiness.
"Sure." Qin Wentian nodded his head lightly.
Mo Qingcheng couldn't help but smile sweetly when she saw Qin Wentian agreeing. After which, she turned her head and spoke to those from the Medicine Sovereign Valley, "I'm going out for a stroll, don't follow me."
"Holy Maiden …" Someone wanted to say something, yet they only saw a hint of imposingness flickering in Mo Qingcheng's eyes. Momentarily, that maiden felt disheartened as she shook her head, "Yes, Holy Maiden."
Mo Qingcheng turned and pulled on Qin Wentian's hand.
"You little lass." Qin Wentian shook his head lightly. In truth, although the conflict in the royal palace of the Ye Country had yet to erupt, dark clouds were already looming over the entire country. At such a timing, Qin Wentian understood that the two of them shouldn't leave the royal palace. After all, Qin Wentian's intelligence was no longer the same as before, and he understood the treachery of the human heart.
But with regards to Mo Qingcheng's request, how could he bear to reject? Hence, a smile appeared on his face as he soared into the air together with Mo Qingcheng.
The royal capital of the Ye Country was extremely flourishing, everywhere was bustling with activity. Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng were like ordinary people walking on the streets. But given their demeanor and looks, it was destined that they wouldn't be ordinary at all. There would always be gazes landing on them as they exclaimed in their hearts. In fact, many people were so stunned by Mo Qingcheng's beauty that they stood rooted to the ground, causing Mo Qingcheng to pout slightly in dissatisfaction. That adorable expression on her face caused Qin Wentian to smile happily.
"You're still smiling?" Mo Qingcheng pinched Qin Wentian's waist, causing Qin Wentian to smile bitterly. "Qingcheng, when we were in Chu, you didn't even dare to go out casually. Could it be that you still don't know how great your charm is?"
"When we were in Chu, I thought it was because of my identity that everyone in Chu knew of me. But this is the Ye Country, who would have thought that it would be the same?" Mo Qingcheng pouted. When she was by Qin Wentian's side, she was like a young girl back then, pure and innocent.
"Who doesn't love to be beautiful in this world?" Qin Wentian laughed. "Just pretend that you didn't see anything."
"Dumbo." Mo Qingcheng took a few steps forward before turning her head back to glare at Qin Wentian. After which, she elegantly turned and ran away. Qin Wentian had no choice but to follow after her.
Just like that, they wandered aimlessly for a long time. The two of them were either walking on the streets, or taking a boat to cruise the lake, admiring the scenery of the Ancient Capital, or even taking a stroll on an ancient pathway filled with the fragrance of flowers. Qin Wentian's handsome countenance was filled with a gentle smile, while Mo Qingcheng's countenance was filled with happiness.
The two of them were like an immortal couple, envied by many.
When they were tired from walking, the two of them decided to rest at a wine shop by the side of the lake, enjoying the unique fragrance of the wine while admiring the scenery of the lake. It had been a very long time since Qin Wentian had been so relaxed.
"Wentian, why don't I bid farewell to Master after I return? I believe Master would agree to it." Mo Qingcheng stared into Qin Wentian's eyes, as a thought appeared in her heart.
"Don't." Qin Wentian decisively rejected. Staring at Mo Qingcheng, and seeing the hidden bitterness in her eyes, Qin Wentian's heart softened. He gently spoke, "Qingcheng, you don't even know the identity of the person who sent you to the Medicine Sovereign Valley back then. Your Master regards you so highly, how can you let him down?"
The status of the Medicine Sovereign Valley was transcendent. Mo Qingcheng was conferred the title of Holy Maiden, and those who accompanied Mo Qingcheng to the Medicine Sovereign Valley all treated her with reverence. From this, one could tell that Mo Qingcheng's status in the Medicine Sovereign Valley was extremely high. Qin Wentian faintly felt that this had something to do with the person who sent Mo Qingcheng to the Medicine Sovereign Valley back then.
Mo Qingcheng's debt of gratitude was as heavy as a mountain, but he didn't know who it was.
Not only that, there was another reason that Qin Wentian didn't say. He deeply loved Mo Qingcheng, but he didn't wish for her to become his vassal. Mo Qingcheng could already concoct fifth-ranked medicinal pills, how terrifying was her alchemy genius? The Medicine Sovereign Valley was undoubtedly the most suitable place for her. How could Qin Wentian waste her time because of him?
However, he also understood that Mo Qingcheng was willing to give up everything to follow him. Wasn't this a sign of her deep feelings for him?
"I understand." Mo Qingcheng softly replied. Her eyes were as gentle as water, and could even melt hearts of stone. Mo Qingcheng also understood Qin Wentian's intentions. Both of them had a tacit understanding, and they exchanged glances as radiant smiles appeared on their faces. Mo Qingcheng would no longer mention the matter of leaving the Medicine Sovereign Valley.
The two of them were filled with warmth, enjoying the peace.
At another table in the wine shop, there were a few young cultivators seated there. One of them had a frivolous expression, his face was unnaturally fair, and his eyes gleamed with a nefarious light. At this moment, he was staring at Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng. Or more accurately, he was staring at Mo Qingcheng.
"To think that there's actually such a girl." The young man mused. After which, he glanced at the young man sitting opposite him, and the two of them smiled at each other.
"Brother Chu, I'm truly fortunate to have invited me here today." The young man smiled.
The young man who was addressed as Brother Chu had an understanding smile on his face as he replied, "I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
"Haha." The young man laughed, "Brother Chu, take care."
After the other party left, the young man continued to stare in the direction of Mo Qingcheng in an unbridled manner. Qin Wentian naturally sensed this, but he didn't expect that in such an elegant place like this, he would actually meet such a person. How disappointing.
"Qingcheng, do you want to change our location?" Qin Wentian smiled. Mo Qingcheng nodded her head.
However at this moment, the young man stood up and smiled, "Brother, please wait for a moment."
Just when Qin Wentian was about to stand up, he didn't expect that the young man would actually stop him. His brows twitched as a cold light flickered in his eyes.
"What's the matter?" Qin Wentian glanced at the young man.
"I'm Dongshan Jin from the Eastern Mountain Marquis Manor. I can see that you're extraordinary, and I have the intention to befriend you. I wonder if you would give me face and come over for a chat?" Dongshan Jin smiled, his words causing the hearts of the people around to tremble. So it turned out that this young man was that lecherous young master from the Eastern Mountain Marquis Manor. This girl was truly unlucky to have encountered this devil incarnate.
"Not interested." Qin Wentian faintly replied.
Dongshan Jin frowned as a cold light flickered in his eyes. He threatened, "Sir, are you not giving me face?"
"Scram!" A cold light flickered in Qin Wentian's eyes. Momentarily, the people behind Dongshan Jin all had cold expressions on their faces as they asked, "Little Marquis, what should we do?"
Dongshan Jin's eyes flickered with a sinister light. His eyes were like venomous snakes as he stared at Qin Wentian. He laughed, "I gave you face but you don't want it. Since this is the case, kill this young man. However, don't injure that beautiful maiden in the slightest. If not, this young master will take your lives."
Qin Wentian's brows were still furrowed. His perception permeated the area, and he could sense that there were people monitoring this area. That young man with the surname Chu was still here, and he didn't go too far away.
This caused Qin Wentian's heart to be as clear as a mirror. This idiot Dongshan Jin must have become a chess piece used by someone else. As he thought of this, Qin Wentian silently shook his head. Since this was the case, meeting Dongshan Jin here was no longer a coincidence. Someone must have done this intentionally.
Qin Wentian glanced at Mo Qingcheng. Both of them understood each other's intentions. They didn't expect that they would be targeted by someone else when they were out for a stroll. There was no need to think too much, they already knew who the culprit was. In the Ye Country, other than Ye Kongfan, who else could they have offended?
"How beautiful, this young master is going to die from her beauty." Dongshan Jin didn't know that he was already on the path of death. He was still staring at Mo Qingcheng, fantasizing about some beautiful scenes as an evil light flashed in his eyes!
