Release?
When Shang Tong was in Xuan King City, he wanted to kill him. In the Immortal Martial Realm, he even acted against Ye Lingshuang and the others. Now that Shang Tong was in his hands, how could he release him so easily?
If that was the case, he wouldn't be mocking Shang Tong, but him, Qin Wentian.
If he released Shang Tong, would Shang Tong be grateful to him?
The eyes of the experts from Grand Shang narrowed as they stared at Qin Wentian. Right now, Qin Wentian was holding onto Shang Tong. As long as he willed it, he would be able to kill Shang Tong with a single thought. And from his earlier words, it was clear that he wanted Shang Tong's life.
The old man from the Royal Sacred Sect also had an expression of rage on his face. Earlier, he was the one who told Shang Tong to fight against Qin Wentian. The meaning behind his words was clear: if he was defeated, he would have to start all over again. No one would dare to touch his life. Although he didn't say the last sentence, everyone in the surroundings should have understood. Qin Wentian should have understood as well.
If Qin Wentian didn't give him face by provoking Shang Tong earlier, if he really killed Shang Tong in front of him, not only would he not give him face, he would also be slapping the face of this elder of the Royal Sacred Sect.
How many years has it been since he met someone who dared to be so impudent in front of him? Those famous characters in the Royal Sacred Region all shuddered like cicadas in winter before him. But now, a junior actually treated him like he was nothing.
Not only that, he initially wanted to invite Shang Tong to join his sect, becoming his disciple.
The two disciples beside him stepped out as a violent aura gushed towards Qin Wentian. Their eyes were filled with killing intent as they stared at Qin Wentian, as they icily stated, "Do you know what you're doing?"
Qin Wentian swept his gaze over the people before him. Him wanting to deal with Shang Tong actually had nothing to do with these people from the Royal Sacred Region. Regardless of whether Shang Tong was here or not, he would still act.
"I can't let go of someone who wants my life," Qin Wentian said, looking at the old man.
The old man's eyes were cold. He stared at Qin Wentian and spat out two words, "Release him."
Only two words, arrogant and cold. He didn't care what grudges there were between Shang Tong and Qin Wentian. He only knew that Qin Wentian had to release Shang Tong in one piece, because he was here.
Shang Tong's countenance was incomparably malevolent. His eyes gleamed with a golden light as he stared fixedly at Qin Wentian, wanting nothing more than to tear Qin Wentian's corpse into a thousand pieces. His face was completely lost today.
The gazes of the spectators all turned to Qin Wentian, waiting for his decision.
Shang Tong was a prince of Grand Shang Empire. Such a status was extraordinary. Not only that, there was still the pressure from an elder of the Royal Sacred Sect. Would Qin Wentian really dare to act against Shang Tong?
Time seemed to have stopped as silence filled the air. Would Qin Wentian dare to kill him?
The Medicine Sovereign also turned his gaze over, only to see Mo Qingcheng turning her head to look at him. Her watery eyes were filled with a hint of hope. The person Qin Wentian was facing was an elder of the Royal Sacred Region. If there was someone here who could suppress him, the Medicine Sovereign would be the only one. If not, nobody would be able to stand up for Qin Wentian.
Seeing Qin Wentian facing such a situation, Mo Qingcheng was naturally filled with worry. However, the Medicine Sovereign acted as though he didn't see her gaze. He was still smiling as he stared ahead, as though this matter had nothing to do with him. He also wanted to see if Qin Wentian would kill or not.
The old man beside the Medicine Sovereign quietly stood there, as though he didn't exist. He hadn't spoken a single word. At this moment, his eyes were narrowed as he stared in the direction of Qin Wentian. He still didn't exude any aura, but for those who understood him, they would know that when he narrowed his eyes, it meant that he was in absolute danger.
The two young men from the Royal Sacred Sect saw that Qin Wentian was still holding onto Shang Tong. They took another step forward as a towering killing intent gushed forth. It was as though as long as Qin Wentian didn't listen, they would kill Qin Wentian on the spot.
Their master was actually being disregarded by a junior here. If the two of them still didn't know how to make use of this opportunity, they would truly be too foolish.
"If he loses even a strand of hair, you won't be able to bear the consequences." One of them coldly spoke. He didn't care about the fact that Qin Wentian was the top ranker of the Immortal Martial Realm. That had nothing to do with him. He was a disciple of the Royal Sacred Sect, what he cared about was how his master viewed him. As for Qin Wentian, no matter how high his talent was, it was impossible for him to extend his hands into the Royal Sacred Sect.
Qin Wentian stared at the killing intent gushing forth from the two of them. He then glanced at the old man from the Royal Sacred Sect. That old man was calm and emotionless, as though he already knew that Qin Wentian wouldn't dare to kill him. Nobody here would dare to defy his words.
When facing an elder-level character of the Royal Sacred Sect, nobody dared to not consider the consequences. Even Qin Wentian was the same.
If he released Shang Tong today, although this elder of the Royal Sacred Sect would still feel hatred for him, he wouldn't make things difficult for him. After all, to him, Qin Wentian was only a junior. As for whether he would command the Grand Shang Empire to do something, that was something he didn't know. In any case, there was no need for him to give an order. Regardless of whether he released Shang Tong or not, the hatred between them was already formed. The Grand Shang Empire would definitely deal with him.
Back then when Shang Tong wanted to kill him, the hatred between them had already been formed. It was just that at that time, Shang Tong was the one bullying him. Hence, the Grand Shang Empire didn't care. But now, things were different. He was the one dealing with Shang Tong.
"No matter what the consequences are, today, I want his life." Qin Wentian's voice rang out, filled with determination. After which, he blasted out with his palms as an incomparably terrifying attack blasted towards Shang Tong. A look of despair flashed in Shang Tong's eyes, he didn't expect that Qin Wentian would really dare to kill him.
"BOOM!" An explosive sound rang out, causing the hearts of everyone to tremble violently. The crowd only saw Shang Tong's body plummeting downwards from the air as his head exploded. He was killed on the spot.
A cold wind whistled through the air, the gazes of the crowd were all focused on Qin Wentian. The person who obtained the top ranker of the Immortal Martial Realm actually dared to kill a prince of Grand Shang Empire in front of everyone.
A prince of Grand Xia. His death concerned the prestige of a transcendent power in the Royal Sacred Region. At the same time, he was also the son of the Human Emperor of Grand Xia. Qin Wentian really dared to kill him.
All of these, Qin Wentian had naturally thought of them before. He thought of the Grand Shang Empire, he thought of this elder of the Royal Sacred Sect. Even if he released Shang Tong today, Shang Tong would still target him relentlessly. Could it be that he would forever be in a passive position? He and his friends could only be bullied, but they couldn't retaliate?
If he did this, Qin Wentian knew that he wouldn't be able to maintain a calm state of mind. If he didn't even dare to kill a prince of Grand Xia, how would he be able to chase after the footsteps of his parents in the future? How would he be able to stand above the immortals and devils, how would he be able to support the heavens and earth? That wasn't what he wanted.
To kill Shang Tong, no matter how great the pressure was, he would face it head-on.
Those from the Grand Shang Faction personally witnessed Qin Wentian killing Shang Tong in front of their eyes. An incomparably fearsome tempest bore down on Qin Wentian.
"You are courting death." The two youths from the Royal Sacred Sect coldly spoke as they stepped out. However at the same time, numerous beams of sword light flashed as sword qi hummed unceasingly. A few swords floated in front of Qin Wentian, humming as they clanged against each other.
Behind Qin Wentian, a number of silhouettes appeared, exuding a fearsome sword intent that enveloped the two youths. These people who appeared were naturally from the Battle Sword Sect.
They remained silent, even when the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect wanted to headhunt Qin Wentian, they didn't say anything. If Qin Wentian had chosen to agree, they would have nothing to say. But now that Qin Wentian chose not to, these people still dared to act against Qin Wentian. How could the members of the Battle Sword Sect not interfere?
"Scram." A voice as cold as sharp swords rang out. After which, the Flame Mountain Sword Sovereign walked to the side of Qin Wentian as he stared at the silhouettes in front of him, "Do you all treat my Battle Sword Sect as non-existent?"
The Battle Sword Sect also had a faction in the Royal Sacred Sect. They naturally didn't have any reverence or fear towards those from the Grand Shang Faction, let alone the fact that these people were headhunting Qin Wentian right in front of their faces.
The experts from Grand Shang all stepped forward, with the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect in the center. Both sides were in a state of confrontation.
"He killed my junior in front of my eyes. Do you all want to interfere in this matter?" That elder stared at the Flame Mountain Sword Sovereign as he spoke.
"What a joke. Earlier Qin Wentian's words were clearly heard by everyone here. Shang Tong wanted to kill him but failed. Now that he was killed by Qin Wentian instead, since your junior is useless, why don't you stand out? In front of so many people from the Royal Sacred Region, you better leave some face for yourself." The Flame Mountain Sword Sovereign retorted.
"My disciple has already warned him. As long as a strand of hair is missing from Shang Tong's body, I will definitely punish him." That elder acted as though he didn't hear the Flame Mountain Sword Sovereign's words. A towering and terrifying aura gushed forth from him, pressing down on Qin Wentian.
"His life is mine for sure," the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect coldly stated, just like what Qin Wentian had said to Shang Tong.
Qin Wentian obtained the top ranker of the Immortal Martial Realm. But today, he wanted to kill him as well.
"I dare you to say one more sentence." A cold voice abruptly drifted over. In the next instant, the heavens and earth howled in rage as a bone-chilling killing intent swept through the entire space. Everyone who felt this cold wind couldn't help but shiver. This coldness seemed to be able to seep into one's bones, causing one's soul to tremble in fear. This aura was even more terrifying compared to the aura of the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect. Not only that, it was directly targeted at the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect.
There seemed to be two terrifying auras clashing against each other, causing rumbling sounds to echo out in the air. The eyes of the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect gleamed with a terrifying sharpness. The coldness in the air unceasingly gushed over, actually suppressing his aura and enveloping everyone from Grand Shang, causing expressions of terror to appear on the faces of those from the Royal Sacred Sect as they turned their gazes towards a certain direction.
They stared in the direction of the Medicine Sovereign. However, the source of that powerful coldness wasn't the Medicine Sovereign, but the silhouette beside the Medicine Sovereign. That silhouette narrowed his eyes as he stepped out, causing an even more violent qi flow to churn the space around him, madly blasting towards those from Grand Shang. At this instant, other than the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect, the others involuntarily retreated as their countenances turned pale.
"You dare to repeat that sentence again?" That old man's narrowed eyes flickered with a terrifying sense of danger as he stared at the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect. The killing intent radiating from him was as though as long as the elder of the Royal Sacred Sect dared to say another word, he would suffer the same fate as Shang Tong!
