The recruitment of the Immortal Martial Realm wasn't a secret to the Royal Sacred Sect. The upper echelons of the Royal Sacred Sect all knew about it and even their sect leader had tacitly acknowledged the existence of the Immortal Martial Realm.
However today, the Immortal Martial Realm actually came to the Royal Sacred Sect and issued an invitation to the person they wanted to deal with, Qin Wentian. This undoubtedly caused the Royal Sacred Sect to be in an extremely difficult position.
Numerous silhouettes descended, all of them were experts of the Royal Sacred Sect. The aura radiating from them was extremely terrifying, causing people to feel a sense of stifling pressure.
"Since when did the matters of my Royal Sacred Sect need to trouble you guys to interfere?" A figure walked out, it was none other than the expert surnamed Li. His eyes were sharp as he swept his gaze over the crowd. He didn't expect that there would be so many experts appearing at his Royal Sacred Sect today.
"Matters of your Royal Sacred Sect? Qin Wentian has already withdrawn from the Battle Sword Sect, he has no connection with the Royal Sacred Sect. Not only that, he is now the son-in-law of the Medicine Sovereign Valley. You guys pinned a groundless crime on him and even threatened to kill him. Do you think I should interfere? "The Medicine Sovereign's beard fluttered in the wind as he stared at the expert surnamed Li.
"As long as Qin Wentian nods his head, this matter would no longer be a matter of your Royal Sacred Sect but a matter of my Immortal Martial Realm instead." Wu Mu laughed, his meaning was clear without words. As long as Qin Wentian nods his head, he would be someone of the Immortal Martial Realm and the Immortal Martial Realm would directly interfere in this matter. At that time, even the Royal Sacred Sect wouldn't be able to hold him back.
"Don't agree to this fellow first. He wants to profit from our misfortune? Ridiculous." The Medicine Sovereign transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian, his words causing Qin Wentian to be taken aback. Looking at the Medicine Sovereign's attitude, he seemed to be extremely confident. The most mysterious expert in the Royal Sacred Region, the Medicine Sovereign from the Medicine Sovereign Valley, the number one alchemist in the Royal Sacred Region, most probably had a secret that no one knew of. It was rumored that the Medicine Sovereign had lived for countless years and every time he was about to die of old age, he would suddenly come back to life.
"What do you guys want?" That expert surnamed Li coldly asked. Such a thing had never happened before in his Royal Sacred Sect. Killing a junior at the Heavenly Dipper Realm actually caused such a huge commotion. Not only did the entire world know about it, the Medicine Sovereign and experts from the Immortal Martial Realm came to protect him.
"What does your Royal Sacred Sect want?" The Medicine Sovereign blew on his beard as he coldly spoke.
Elder Li's expression flickered with uncertainty. Today's events had already exceeded the scope of his control. It was likely that even he wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
To him, the Medicine Sovereign was a senior. When he was very young, the Medicine Sovereign was already the Medicine Sovereign.
As for the Immortal Martial Realm, Qin Wentian faintly knew that this was also a terrifying power that came to the Royal Sacred Region to plunder demon-level geniuses once every ten years. Because the number of people they wanted wasn't too many, and it was all voluntary, the Royal Sacred Sect had never interfered. But the true reason was most probably the power behind the Immortal Martial Realm. The Royal Sacred Sect didn't dare to act recklessly.
"Old fellow, how many years has it been? Your temper is still the same." At this moment, a transcendent aura drifted over from the depths of the Royal Sacred Sect.
At this instant, the entire Royal Sacred Sect fell into silence. Everyone stared in that direction as a hint of worship could be seen in their eyes.
"The sect leader of the Royal Sacred Sect?" Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at the horizons. That aura was calm and tranquil, as though it had already transcended the mortal world.
"Even the sect leader referred to the Medicine Sovereign as an old fellow. How old is this Medicine Sovereign exactly?" Many people sighed in their hearts.
"Don't be frightened. Maybe it's just a strand of immortal sense, his true self isn't even in the Royal Sacred Sect." The voice of the Medicine Sovereign rang out in Qin Wentian's mind once more, causing Qin Wentian to be stunned.
What sort of character was the sect leader of the Royal Sacred Sect? He was a legendary immortal. How could his true self stay in the sect every day? Maybe he wasn't even in the Royal Sacred Region.
"Hehe, even your descendants dare to be so arrogant in front of me." The Medicine Sovereign spoke with a smile that was not a smile.
"Flaunting your seniority." That voice rang out again. After which, it turned to Wu Mu, "Wu Mu, seems like you are the Realmlord of the Immortal Martial Realm this time around. Coming from my Royal Sacred Region and having such accomplishments, you might even be able to reach my level in the future. Congratulations."
"Many thanks for senior's teachings." Wu Mu respectfully replied, bowing slightly in the direction of a junior. In front of the Medicine Sovereign, he was naturally a junior.
Although Wu Mu was respectful, in his eyes, he didn't have the same reverence as the others. Most probably, Wu Mu had met some immortals in the outside world before.
There was no doubt that the power behind the Immortal Martial Realm had immortals among them.
"Medicine Sovereign, Wu Mu, the two of you don't need to mingle with these juniors. I can't be bothered with such matters. Let's just follow the rules of the Royal Sacred Region. Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants are not allowed to interfere in the matters of juniors at the Heavenly Dipper Realm. They can settle it themselves. Do you all hear me?" That voice abruptly exuded a sense of imposingness, causing the hearts of everyone to tremble.
As expected of the Sacred Emperor. To the Sacred Emperor, such matters were basically nothing. The Sacred Emperor was already an immortal, transcending this level. Even in the Royal Sacred Sect, it has been a long time since he last appeared. Who would have thought that he would actually appear here today? Seems like the face of this Medicine Sovereign and Wu Mu was truly too great.
"Yes, Sacred Emperor." The experts of the Royal Sacred Sect all bowed. Nobody dared to refute the words of the Sacred Emperor. This was the absolute faith of the Royal Sacred Sect. His words were akin to a decree.
Since Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants didn't interfere, that meant that Zai Qiu, Xia Sheng and Qin Wentian could settle this themselves.
A cold light flashed in Zai Qiu's eyes. He stared at Qin Wentian as though he was looking at a dead man. Since the Sacred Emperor has spoken, no one in the world would dare to disobey. Although this was already giving face to the Medicine Sovereign and the Immortal Martial Realm, if Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants didn't interfere, what could Qin Wentian use to fight against them?
Although Qin Wentian was extremely famous in the Royal Sacred Region, in terms of combat prowess, he alone didn't have to fear Qin Wentian in the slightest. He would settle it himself.
There was no suspense in killing Qin Wentian.
"The Sacred Emperor is indeed the Sacred Emperor, transcending worldly affairs. His words clearly displayed his boldness, yet it wouldn't change the ending." Zai Qiu mused. Although his surname was Zai, he was a descendant of the Sacred Emperor who was separated by many generations. In fact, he had never even seen the Sacred Emperor himself before. The Sacred Emperor had long transcended the mortal world of the Royal Sacred Region. When he was ruling over the world, he pursued the pinnacle of the Martial Dao and had extremely strict requirements for his descendants. This was the reason why he was able to rule over the entire Royal Sacred Region.
He, Zai Qiu, was a descendant of the Sacred Emperor. If he lost to Qin Wentian, it would be akin to throwing away the face of the Sacred Emperor. Even if he died in battle, the Sacred Emperor wouldn't feel the slightest bit of pity and would only think that he was useless.
The Medicine Sovereign and the Realmlord of the Immortal Martial Realm furrowed their brows as they glanced at Qin Wentian. If neither of them interfered, although Qin Wentian's talent was outstanding, when compared to the peak-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns of the Royal Sacred Sect, his foundation was still a little lacking.
Mo Qingcheng held onto Qin Wentian's hand as she cast a worried glance at Qin Wentian. The words of the Sacred Emperor seemed to be disadvantageous to Qin Wentian.
However at this moment, Qin Wentian turned his gaze towards the horizons as he calmly spoke, "The Sacred Emperor commands the entire world, his words are the law. Since he wants us to settle this ourselves, junior will naturally comply. In that case, today, there's no right or wrong, there's only gratitude and grudges."
"Right or wrong, it's in your heart." A calm voice drifted over. A single sentence of 'right or wrong, it's in your heart.'
Was Zai Qiu wrong? His junior apprentice brother Sun Qing died because Quinn and Qin Wentian didn't save him. Hence, he bore hatred in his heart, acting first and reporting later. In his heart, he was always right. Even if everyone said he was wrong, he would still feel that he was right.
But to Qin Wentian, why would he sacrifice Fan Miaoyu to save Sun Qing?
There's no right or wrong, there's only gratitude and grudges.
Qin Wentian didn't look at Zai Qiu. His gaze was fixed on Shang Li, a disciple from the Grand Shang Faction.
She had to be responsible for Quinn's death.
"Although I have grudges with the Grand Shang Faction, Shang Tong tried to kill me back then and I killed him with my own strength. If you all hate me, you can kill me openly. However, from the moment I stepped into the Royal Sacred Sect, you already wanted to humiliate me. In the secret realm, you led the danger to Fan Miaoyu and even slandered Quinn and me, causing Quinn to die. If you don't die, Quinn won't be able to rest in peace."
Qin Wentian slowly walked out as a long halberd appeared in his hands. Wielding it diagonally, Qin Wentian slowly walked towards Shang Li.
At this moment, Shang Li stared at the cold eyes of Qin Wentian as her heart involuntarily trembled.
Among these people, the only one who had seen Qin Wentian's true strength was none other than her, Shang Li. She had personally witnessed the battle between Qin Wentian and the buried immortal. Not only that, under the pursuit of the buried immortal, Qin Wentian still managed to walk out of the immortal palace alive.
"Didn't you mock me before? In that case, scram the hell out." Qin Wentian pointed his long halberd forward, displaying his sharpness.
Shang Li felt a chill run down her spine. She glanced to her left and right only to see Zai Qiu staring at her as he spoke, "Go on. Since he refuses to admit his guilt, our Royal Sacred Sect won't use force to suppress him. Shang Li, go and kill him."
Shang Li didn't tell Zai Qiu about the battle between Qin Wentian and the buried immortal. She lied to Zai Qiu and the others, saying that Qin Wentian and Quinn had lured the buried immortal to her. Naturally, she would hide some things from them.
"No …" Shang Li shook her head, her countenance incredibly ugly to behold. As the sound of her voice faded, numerous cold gazes landed on her. These were all experts from the Royal Sacred Sect.
Cowardice?
As someone from their Royal Sacred Sect, Shang Li actually cowered from battle when facing Qin Wentian? Today, the Sacred Emperor was personally spectating the battle. Even if Shang Li had to die in battle, she couldn't be cowardly.
"Shang Li." An elder from the Grand Shang Empire coldly spoke, causing Shang Li's countenance to turn even paler.
"Shang Li." Qin Wentian called out. Shang Li stared into his eyes only to hear Qin Wentian staring at her as he coldly spoke, "For a despicable and useless character like you to continue living, it's only a humiliation."
As the sound of his voice faded, Shang Li only saw Qin Wentian rushing towards her as his long halberd pierced out. This halberd seemed to be able to penetrate through everything. Shang Li unleashed her aura, wanting to defend yet she discovered that the long halberd had already pierced through her heart. She lowered her head, staring at the long halberd that had pierced through her heart as an expression of agony appeared on her face.
"KNEEL!" A thunderous roar rang out. Shang Li only felt a terrifying pressure pressing down on her heart. Shang Li knelt down, her countenance like dead ashes.
The hearts of the spectators all trembled when they saw the kneeling Shang Li. The true intent of Dreamscape, Shang Li had sunk into a dreamscape. There was no halberd piercing through her heart. Qin Wentian was still standing at his original location, yet with a single shout, he wanted Shang Li to kneel. This scene caused the countenances of those from the Royal Sacred Sect to turn incredibly ugly to behold. Even Zai Qiu had an expression of shame and anger on his face as he stared at Shang Li with killing intent in his eyes.
Useless, truly useless. She was already cowering before the battle, her will wasn't firm enough, and she was invaded by Qin Wentian's true intent of Dreamscape, unable to extricate herself.
This time around, Qin Wentian really moved. Shang Li's heart pounded violently as a hint of clarity returned to her eyes. However, it was already too late. Qin Wentian's long halberd directly pierced through the center of her brows. Those from the Royal Sacred Sect didn't interfere. Who would dare to defy the orders of the Sacred Emperor? Not only that, Shang Li's performance truly disappointed them. She was too useless!
