Qin Wentian also glanced at that immortal-foundation expert, only to discover that the immortal-foundation expert's gaze was on two young maidens at the table beside him. These two maidens were the maidservants of the young miss and they were currently flipping through a book.
"The person on the first page is the one who killed Jiang Kuang, Qin Wentian. The reward for capturing him is the highest and right now, the Cloud Tower of the Jiangling Country has already disseminated the wanted poster to every city. I'm afraid he will be captured soon." That young miss stared at the wanted poster as she spoke in a low voice. Qin Wentian started. After which, he extended his perception and instantly saw that the first page of the wanted poster had a portrait of him drawn on it. Not only that, the portrait was exactly the same as his.
This book was issued by the Cloud Tower of the Cloud Prefecture and could be disseminated to every city in the Jiangling Country in the shortest amount of time. Right now, the first page of the wanted poster was none other than the wanted poster for him, Qin Wentian!
"Young miss, why do you care about this?" The maidservant beside her asked.
"I've already heard of this matter in my clan. Back then, Jiang Kuang refused to release his younger sister and that was why this man killed Jiang Kuang. Not only that, he did so under the eyes of so many experts of the Jiang Clan, risking his life just to save his younger sister. He shouldn't have appeared on the wanted poster." The voice of that young miss was clear and melodious. The maidservant beside her hurriedly made a shushing gesture as she spoke in a low voice, "Young miss, this is an order personally issued by the Jiangling King. Also, there are too many people in the Driftsnow City, it's best not to speak of such things recklessly."
That immortal-foundation expert also took a step forward when he heard this. He then spoke to the young miss, "Young miss, it's best not to discuss the matters of the Jiangling King."
The young miss was stunned for a moment before she nodded her head lightly.
"Young miss, let's go." That immortal-foundation expert spoke again. The young miss nodded and stood up together with the maidservant beside her as they turned and left the inn.
Qin Wentian naturally heard the words of that immortal-foundation expert. He didn't expect that there would actually be someone speaking up for him. Also, from their tone, that young miss seemed to be someone from the Jiangling King's Manor. However, even the Jiangling King couldn't afford to antagonize the Jiang Clan. Hence, the maidservant and the immortal-foundation expert advised the young miss not to speak recklessly.
Therefore, this young girl was most likely a young lady from the Regional King's Mansion. However, it was the Regional King who had personally issued the order to arrest Qin Wentian.
After taking a sip of tea, Qin Wentian smiled at the man beside him and asked, "Brother, where did you get the arrest warrant from?"
Next to him was a middle-aged man in a blue robe with an elegant temperament. Hearing Qin Wentian's question, he couldn't help but smile and say, "Of course it's from Yunlou."
"Yunlou?" Qin Wentian had heard this name from the woman's conversation.
"Don't tell me you don't even know about Yunlou?" The blue-robed middle-aged man stared at Qin Wentian in bewilderment. After which, he smiled, "In the Cloud Prefecture, there's a Yunlou in every city of the Cloud Prefecture. They are the sacred ground of the Cloud Prefecture, the Yunlou Sage Sect. Through the Yunlou, the orders of the Yunlou Sage Sect can be transmitted to the entire Cloud Prefecture in the shortest amount of time. At the same time, there are a total of eighty-one countries in the Cloud Prefecture, and each country would have disciples from the Yunlou Sage Sect stationed there. They have a close relationship with the Jiangling King and if the Jiangling King has any orders, the most effective method would be through the Yunlou Sage Sect."
"The arrest warrant has always been issued from the Yunlou. For those who are wanted by the Yunlou Sage Sect, it's very difficult for them to find a place to hide." The blue-robed middle-aged man smiled as he explained. Qin Wentian nodded. From this, it seems like the Yunlou Sage Sect should be a transcendent power in the Cloud Prefecture, possessing a terrifying authority to speak.
Since the Yunlou Sage Sect was able to have such power and was located in the Eastern Sage Thirteen Prefectures, it most probably had a deep connection with the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor.
"Many thanks brother for informing me." Qin Wentian smiled and clasped his hands.
"Just a small matter, everyone in the Driftsnow City knows about this." The blue-robed middle-aged man casually waved his hands and continued sipping on his tea.
Qin Wentian sat in the teahouse for a moment before he stood up and departed. He directly soared into the air, speeding through the airspace of the Driftsnow City.
Qin Wentian increased his speed and sped through the airspace of the Driftsnow City. He encountered even more experts, truly hidden dragons and crouching tigers. For immortal-foundation characters, Qin Wentian had already seen hundreds of them, all of them shimmering with resplendent immortal light. Just by walking on the streets, one would be able to recognize them with a single glance.
After a long time, Qin Wentian saw a vast public square before him. There were many experts gathered there, all of them surrounding an incomparably resplendent ancient bell.
This ancient bell was over a thousand zhang in height and was incomparably terrifying. Bell chimes lingered in the air as runic light filled the sky, illuminating the entire world. On the vast earth, there were many runic lights shooting down. Tens of thousands of runic inscriptions landed on the ground, exuding a profound and unfathomable aura.
"Is this a divine weapon?" Qin Wentian's heart trembled as he felt shock in his heart. This was the first time he saw such a gigantic divine weapon. It was even larger than the demon sword and was so resplendent.
As for the many figures surrounding the ancient bell, they were all walking on the ground, as though they were seeking a connection with the ancient bell. Through the resplendent runic inscriptions, they were able to form a connection with the ancient bell. However, nobody had succeeded yet.
Not far away, numerous figures surrounded by immortal light stood in the air, observing everything. Among them, there were experts from the Jiang Clan, as well as experts from the War Immortal Palace. Naturally, there were also major powers from the Driftsnow City as well as the Jiangling Country. All of them seemed to be extremely interested in this ancient bell.
"This ancient bell is extremely mysterious. If I want to form a connection with it, I'm afraid I have to link these runic inscriptions together, causing the ancient bell to ring." Qin Wentian mused. After which, he stepped out and an instant later, stood below the ancient bell. Inclining his head, he stared at the incomparably gigantic ancient bell in the air, feeling that it was incomparably mysterious.
"Each and every runic inscription has its own unique pattern. These intersecting runic inscriptions can form a mystical runic formation, causing the bell to resonate." Qin Wentian had spent a period of time comprehending the Heavenly Talisman Treasured Tome in the Heavenly Talisman Palace. During that period of time, his comprehension of runic inscriptions improved immensely.
Only to see that at this moment, a person beside Qin Wentian heard Qin Wentian's voice. He turned his head and glanced at Qin Wentian as a look of disdain flashed in his eyes, "You understand runic inscriptions?"
Qin Wentian stared at the other party. This young man exuded an extraordinary aura. His forehead was plump and his long hair draped over his shoulders. His eyes gleamed with a golden light, exuding a sense of sharpness. His eyes seemed to contain a powerful penetrative power, and when he stared at Qin Wentian, a faint sense of pressure could be felt.
"I know a little." Qin Wentian replied.
However, a mocking smile appeared on the lips of the young man, as though he was mocking Qin Wentian for boasting shamelessly.
"The dao of runic inscriptions is the true Great Dao. Runic inscriptions represent the laws of the heavens and earth. If I'm not wrong, your cultivation base should only be at the third level of Celestial Phenomenon. You actually dare to say that you know a little about it?" The young man calmly spoke. He was originally a disciple of one of the major powers of the Jiangling Country, the Purple Flame Sect. The Purple Flame Sect was proficient in fire and weaponsmithing. Their disciples all had extremely high attainments in weaponsmithing.
"He isn't the only one who dares to boast shamelessly. Among the people here, there are many who don't even know what runic inscriptions are. Yet, aren't all of them speaking with fervor and assurance?" Beside the young man, there was a young woman around the age of twenty-five or twenty-six. Her eyes were long and narrow, exuding an unkind intent. Her mouth was very sharp and although she looked pretty good, it didn't look harmonious at all.
"Haha, you guys should be from the Purple Flame Sect right? The nine ancient bells of the Driftsnow City all contain a marvelous energy within. Only an extremely rare few can sound them. The fame of the Purple Flame Sect has already spread far and wide in the Jiangling Country, there aren't many who can match up to them in terms of weaponsmithing. Today, I truly want to see if you guys can make this ancient bell chime."
Someone at the side laughed uproariously. The two experts from the Purple Flame Sect glanced over as they spoke, "Disciples from the Nine Coldpeak of the Driftsnow City, you guys have resided in the Driftsnow City for a long period of time and should be very familiar with this ancient bell right? Are you able to sound it?"
"The ancient bell has a spirit, its transformations are unfathomable. The runic inscriptions on it are constantly changing, how could there be any pattern to it? No matter how familiar you are with it, it's still the same. It still depends on your attainments." The disciple from the Nine Coldpeak emotionlessly replied.
"I've long wanted to see the Nine Immortality Bell for myself. Today is a good chance." At this moment, a group of silhouettes descended from the air, walking to the side of the ancient bell. They were none other than experts from the Jiang Clan.
"Nine Immortality Bell, don't ask immortals." Another voice drifted over. Not far away, a group of experts stood beside the experts from the Jiang Clan. They were none other than experts from the Jiangling King Manor. One of them spoke, "I'm sure everyone has long heard of the rumors regarding the Nine Immortality Bell. Now that the immortal spirit has manifested, this is an opportunity that only appears once every thousand years."
