Pei Tianyuan turned his gaze onto Zurius as he smiled and nodded, "Since everyone is in such a mood, I naturally won't have any objections. The scenery of the Driftsnow Inn is so beautiful, if there's martial arts to liven things up, it would surely add some vitality to the atmosphere."
"My King, if blood is spilled during the banquet, please don't blame me." Zurius spoke again. Pei Tianyuan casually waved his hands, "How can the competition of the martial path be limited to sparring? Since we want to tread the path of martial arts, we should have the spirit to see through life and death. As long as none of you have any objections, there's no need to ask me. I'm only a spectator. Today, all of you shall take the lead."
"My King is truly a forthright man. Many thanks for granting my wish." Zurius laughed. An instant later, a sharp glint of light flashed in his eyes, causing people to feel a chill in their hearts. He then turned his gaze onto Qin Wentian, "Since you are so arrogant and don't know the immensity of the heavens and earth, I won't bully you. The War Immortal Palace is a power under my Battle Heavens Immortal Manor and there are three third-level ascendants behind me. They are sufficient to let you understand the meaning of the word 'level'."
"There's no need for him to understand. Just kill him directly. His arrogant words are extremely piercing to the ears, causing people to feel extremely unhappy." Nion's cold eyes flickered with killing intent as she stared at Qin Wentian. It was one thing if she was provoked by Cheron's words, but a mere unknown character actually dared to use such words to humiliate her? How could her killing intent not soar up into the skies? She wanted nothing more than to kill Qin Wentian.
"If we can cripple him, it's fine even if we don't kill him. Let him know how to conduct himself in the future, lest he spits out such arrogant words in the future." Shu Luyao coldly spoke.
"That's not bad." Jiang Yan rapped his fingers on the table, his eyes flashing with mockery. The gaze he used to look at Qin Wentian was like he was looking at a dead man.
"Do you all want me dead so badly?" Qin Wentian's eyes were sharp.
Cheron, who was at the side, had a calm expression on his face. He believed that for those who could sound the Nine Immortality Bells, there wouldn't be any problems in a battle between cultivators at the same level. In addition, no one knew that Qin Wentian was able to sound the Nine Immortality Bells. Evidently, he wasn't a high-profile character. Since he dared to say such words, he would definitely be able to do it. Hence, Cheron merely lifted his wine cup and sipped a mouthful as a smile appeared on his face.
Mu Yan sat there peacefully. The Ghost Saber Mu Yan had always been extremely interested in combat. He believed that since Cheron had such a relationship with Qin Wentian, there must be something extraordinary about him.
And at this moment, the three third-level ascendants from the War Immortal Palace already stood in the empty space in the center of the banquet hall. Although this space was a little too narrow for combat, if one controlled it well, it would still be sufficient to support an entire battle. In addition, the strength of the people on both sides were all extremely powerful. Even if the aftershocks from their attacks were too strong, they wouldn't be affected and could easily defend against it.
"Scram the hell out." One of them stared at Qin Wentian as he coldly spoke. An intense killing intent gushed forth from him as a bloody stench permeated the air.
Qin Wentian continued to sit there, quietly lifting his wine cup and sipping a small mouthful. He inclined his head and stared at the three before him as he coldly spoke, "I didn't come here to participate in this banquet to be toyed with like a monkey. My battles would never be used for the entertainment of others. That would be an insult to my martial path."
"Puchi …" A mocking laughter rang out. Nifeng's eyes were filled with a mocking smile as she spoke, "Earlier you spoke so passionately yet now you're using such a reason to avoid a battle. Inviting someone like you to attend this banquet together with me is simply a humiliation to me."
As the sound of her voice faded, many in the crowd laughed out loud. This person was truly too ridiculous.
However, as their laughter rang out, they only saw Qin Wentian still sitting there. His eyes swept over as a cold light erupted forth. Lifting his palms, astral light flashed, incomparably resplendent. Terrifying runic lights shone from his palms, resembling a million runes.
"RUMBLE!" A thunderous sound rang out, only to see Qin Wentian's palm imprint explosively blasting out, descending from the heavens, directly smashing towards the three ascendants. The gigantic palm imprint was akin to a shooting star, capable of plucking the moon and stars from the sky. It was as fast as lightning, carrying with it a suffocating destructive might.
The countenances of the three ascendants were filled with terror, they only felt a constellation slamming down on them. Gathering all their strength, they raised their palms to defend, yet rumbling sounds rang out. In just an instant, the bodies of the three ascendants were directly crushed into dust. Astral light shone resplendently, permeating the air. However, the bodies of the three ascendants were directly destroyed, transforming into dust.
The laughter earlier abruptly ceased. Only now did Qin Wentian slowly put down the wine cup in his left hand, emitting a light sound that was exceptionally clear in this silent space. The smile on Nifeng's face stiffened, he didn't dare to fight?
Even before the sound of her mocking laughter faded, Qin Wentian already used such a method to reply to her. What else could be more resounding than such a slap to the face?
Not only for Nifeng, even those who mocked Qin Wentian felt as though they were ruthlessly slapped on the face. They felt extremely sullen, and had no way to swallow this anger.
"Is this the capital that your Battle Heavens Immortal Manor is so proud of? What a joke. " Qin Wentian calmly spoke after putting down his wine cup. His voice wasn't loud, but it was like another slap to the face of Zurius who had been laughing and watching the show earlier.
Earlier when Zurius and the Jiangling King spoke, it was as though Qin Wentian was already in their bag and could be killed easily. Qin Wentian could only be a clown in this banquet, toyed with by them.
But in the blink of an eye, Qin Wentian used the most domineering method to tell them that he didn't even need to stand up to kill these people from the major powers. He couldn't be bothered to become a clown, using martial arts to liven things up. His martial path wasn't used to put on a show, it was used to slap faces.
Zurius choked on his breath, he didn't say anything. He didn't know how he should reply to Qin Wentian's arrogant words. The truth was right before his eyes, how could he refute it? The people from the War Immortal Palace under his Battle Heavens Immortal Manor couldn't even withstand a single strike, directly killed until not even dregs remained.
"A bunch of arrogant people who think they're infallible. How many of them can truly explore the glorious path to immortality? You guys are all short-sighted." Qin Wentian continued. After which, he turned his gaze onto the Jiangling King, Pei Tianyuan as he spoke, "Jiangling King, junior isn't welcome here. I won't stay any longer and invite a snub. Farewell."
After speaking, Qin Wentian stood up and retreated. This Jiangling King Pei Tianyuan favored the disciples from the major powers of the Cloud Prefecture and was extremely polite to them. But for him, Qin Wentian, he was an exception. Such an atmosphere wasn't suitable for him.
Although the scenery here was beautiful, and there was also the story of the Driftsnow Master and Immortal Jade, the people here have long changed.
"You want to leave just like that after killing my men?"
At this moment, a cold voice rang out, causing Qin Wentian to start. He turned his head back and stared at Zurius as he frowned. His eyes flashed with mockery, "It's fine if people from the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor are useless, but to think that they can actually be so shameless to such an extent. My horizons have truly been broadened."
"My horizons have also been broadened." Ghost Saber Mu Yan laughed.
"Zurius, earlier you ordered your subordinates to kill Qin Wentian. Everyone here saw it clearly. Now that your subordinates were killed because their strength was inferior, aren't you insulting the Battle Heavens Immortal Manor a little too much by saying such words?" Cheron mocked, filled with disdain for Zurius's character.
"I don't care about that. I only know that if you dare to kill someone from my Battle Heavens Immortal Manor, you shall leave your life behind." Zurius's voice was extremely domineering as a terrifying battle intent gushed forth from him. The experts from the War Immortal Palace behind him all released their auras, wanting to kill Qin Wentian here and now.
If they allowed Qin Wentian to leave here alive today, that would truly be a humiliation to the Battle Heavens Immortal Palace.
Since he killed their people, he shall leave his life behind. Others would only remember the strength of their Battle Heavens Immortal Palace and not the fact that they didn't follow the rules. In this world of cultivation, there were no rules to speak of. Whoever was stronger would be able to dictate the rules.
"You spoke rudely and insulted me. Do you think you can just leave like that?" At this moment, Nion also spoke. The experts from the Seven Sword Sect all stood up as sword intent gushed forth from them, permeating the air. A moment later, everyone felt a stifling pressure boring down on them.
"You guys are truly shameless." Pei Yu swept her gaze over to these people as she mocked.
"Pei Yu, there's no place for you to speak. Get over here." Pei Xiao, who was sitting beside Jiang Yan, berated. After that, Pei Yu stared at Pei Xiao, her beautiful eyes flashing with stubbornness.
"Pei Yu, step down and come over to my side." At this moment, the Jiangling King Pei Tianyuan also spoke. His tone contained a hint of imposingness, evidently, he didn't want Pei Yu to participate in this battle.
Pei Yu stared at Pei Tianyuan, her eyes were as resolute as ever. She actually stubbornly shook her head, causing Pei Tianyuan's countenance to turn cold as he spoke, "Impudent!"
As the sound of his voice faded, the atmosphere grew colder. Pei Yu stared at Pei Tianyuan as she spoke, "Jiangling King, you should be the one in charge of this matter."
Pei Tianyuan's gaze towards Pei Yu was filled with unfriendliness, as though he was very disappointed. Beside Pei Tianyuan, someone spoke, "Miss Pei Yu, you have to understand a logic. When people at the same level compete against each other, there might not be any problems. As long as there isn't a life-and-death battle, everything can be resolved. Enemies can also help you improve. However, for people at different levels, there are some things that cannot be done."
The person who spoke was also a disciple from a major power in the Cloud Prefecture. His name was Han Dongjiang, a disciple of the Nine Mountain Immortal Court.
Although his words weren't pleasant to the ears, they were the truth. For example, Cheron and Jiang Yan might be enemies, but they would also help each other and wouldn't kill each other. However, things were different for Qin Wentian because everyone felt that he was on a different level compared to Jiang Yan and the others. He didn't have the qualifications to be their opponent yet he still dared to be so arrogant and rude. In that case, what awaited him was only doomsday. Even if Cheron wanted to protect him, it would be extremely difficult. Most probably, these people wouldn't spare Qin Wentian.
As for the Jiangling King Pei Tianyuan, he couldn't be bothered with such matters. If these people wanted to deal with Cheron at his banquet, he would object. But if they wanted to deal with Qin Wentian, he naturally wouldn't interfere!
