"Pigheaded." The voice of the Driftsnow Master was ice cold. The gigantic Driftsnow City actually began to move. Below the ancient city, a gigantic bird with a city on its back flapped its wings, causing the entire city to move forward. The Driftsnow Master's countenance was ice cold. His palms grabbed out in the air, causing the entire sky to turn golden.
Boundless golden light gushed forth as many golden diagrams appeared in the air.
Jiang Zhuqing stepped out when he saw this scene, wanting to retreat. He knew that his strength was inferior to the Driftsnow Master and he wouldn't clash head-on with him. However, he would wait. Unless the Driftsnow Master could exist forever and Qin Wentian would never appear again.
However at this moment, a terrifying sense of danger suddenly bore down on him. Jiang Zhuqing's countenance stiffened and he abruptly turned. A spear of darkness appeared in his hands as he stabbed out frenziedly. A supreme saber light slashed down from the sky, akin to a bolt of lightning. A beam of white light directly cleaved the void into two. This saber strike could only be described as world-shaking.
"Bang …" The spear collided with the saber light and was actually split apart in the middle. Jiang Zhuqing's body explosively retreated. A terrifying rumbling sound came from behind him. Jiang Zhuqing's face turned pale. This sudden saber attack instantly caused him to fall into a state of despair.
"RUMBLE!" An incomparably gigantic palm imprint slammed down, bringing with it a towering might that directly tore apart the life force in his body. Jiang Zhuqing's body trembled violently, he stared ahead. He didn't look at the Driftsnow Master but at the black-robed figure who just appeared.
"We have no grudges, why are you trying to kill me?" Jiang Zhuqing was filled with reluctance. He was an immortal king of a generation but because of a sudden attack from the Saberlord of Death, he was going to die here.
"I've never had a reason to kill. If I want to kill, I will." The black-robed figure spoke. He was none other than Mu Yan's master, the Saberlord of Death.
Mu Yan's ghostly saber had inherited the style of the Saberlord of Death. Every time he slashed, there would be blood. There were no rules. His saber was the law. His personality was also unfathomable.
Countless people below opened their mouths wide, staring at the scene in disbelief. They didn't expect there would be such a sudden attack. The Saberlord of Death actually wanted to kill Jiang Zhuqing.
That saber strike far surpassed the expectations of everyone. It also caused the death of Jiang Zhuqing, an immortal king of a generation.
Was the Jiang Clan going to be completely annihilated just like that?
"I can't accept this." Jiang Zhuqing's countenance was incomparably malevolent. Immortal light gushed forth frenziedly from him. Even though his life force had been destroyed, he still wanted to unleash an attack of death. However, the Driftsnow Master only sent out a palm strike. Thunderous rumbling sounds rang out as Jiang Zhuqing's body trembled violently.
Jiang Zhuqing's eyes were still open. Even when his body was falling, he was still unwilling.
"The items on him belong to me. The Driftsnow Master wouldn't have any objections right?" The Saberlord of Death asked.
"Take it." The Driftsnow Master waved his palms and a moment later, Jiang Zhuqing's body flew towards the Saberlord of Death. The Saberlord didn't stand on ceremony and directly collected the spoils of war.
Jiang Zhuqing was the leader of the Jiang Clan, and the Jiang Clan was a sacred ground for weaponsmithing in the Cloud Prefecture. How many treasures would he have on him?
That saber strike of the Saberlord was priceless. He was much more brilliant compared to those experts who coveted Qin Wentian. With a single strike, he plundered all the wealth of an immortal king.
However, this saber strike required determination and courage. That saber strike was aimed at the immortal king of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Zhuqing. It wasn't aimed at a mere third-level Celestial Phenomenon ant like Qin Wentian.
However, no one would dare to imagine the rewards of this saber strike.
"Many thanks." The Saberlord smiled at the Driftsnow Master. Nobody knew that the reason he slashed out that saber strike wasn't merely for the treasures on Jiang Zhuqing. Naturally, he wouldn't say it out loud.
From afar in the air, there were many experts spectating this scene. However, none of them showed their faces, including those experts who were from the major powers the Driftsnow Master killed.
The Jiang Clan was annihilated, how would they dare to show their faces? The commotion caused by Qin Wentian was simply too terrifying. Before this, no one dared to even think about it.
No matter how weak the Jiang Clan was, it was still a sacred ground for weaponsmithing. Right now, they were still a supreme power with authority in the field of weaponsmithing. But now, they were annihilated just like that. The impact of this to everyone was extremely great.
"Leave this city here. If you hand it over to him now, he wouldn't be able to control it. Leave it far away and wait for him to come and retrieve it in the future." The Saberlord spoke. The Driftsnow Master cast a deep glance at him.
"I have no grudge with Qin Wentian. I believe that even if I kill him, I won't be able to obtain this city. I have no ill intentions." The Saberlord smiled. He understood the Driftsnow Master's intentions.
"No matter who covets this city, it's useless. The Nine Immortality Bells have already been refined by Qin Wentian. Even if we seize his memories and kill him, we won't be able to control this city. Only Qin Wentian can do this. If there's anyone else who covets this city, I will definitely not spare them." The Driftsnow Master turned his gaze to the horizons, his voice shaking the heavens and earth.
"That little fellow isn't bad, I have high hopes for him. Master can leave in peace and leave him to me to take care of. No one would dare to bully him. If you don't believe me, you can ask him for his opinion." The Saberlord spoke as he transmitted his voice to the Driftsnow Master, "I'm old acquaintances with your successor. Allow him to regain his consciousness and you can ask him about it."
The eyes of the Driftsnow Master flickered when he heard this. After which, he closed his eyes as his gigantic body gradually shrunk in size. The supreme sharpness he exuded faded away as his countenance gradually changed, transforming into the countenance of Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian's eyes were tightly shut. All of a sudden, he felt a voice calling out to him. His eyes opened only to hear a voice ringing out in his mind, "Qin Wentian, this person said that he will take care of you. Do you trust him?"
"Senior is the Driftsnow Master?" Qin Wentian's heart trembled as he asked.
"Yes." That voice rang out once more. Only now did Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at the Saberlord of Death. A sense of familiarity appeared, he only saw the Saberlord smiling at him. He couldn't help but to reply to the Driftsnow Master, "I do indeed have some connection with this person. I'm willing to trust him."
This person was his senior from the Heavenly Talisman Realm and was also an immortal king. Qin Wentian was willing to trust him.
"Right." That voice rang out once more. That face transformed back into that of the Driftsnow Master. He stared at the Saberlord of Death as he spoke, "Just like what you said, leave this city here. When he steps into the immortal-foundation realm, he can come back to retrieve it and turn it into a mobile city for him."
As the sound of his voice faded, the Driftsnow Master controlled the ancient Driftsnow City to descend. An instant later, the ancient Driftsnow City returned to its original location. Rumbling sounds rang out as the ancient Driftsnow City was embedded into the ground.
"The land of an entire city, this is simply a treasure trove." Everyone felt some jealousy towards Qin Wentian. How terrifying was the might of the Driftsnow City? Once Qin Wentian gained full control over it, it was equivalent to him controlling many immortal-ranked weapons. In addition, when Qin Wentian grew stronger, he could treat the Driftsnow City as his own clan or power. The entire city would be a divine weapon that was countless times stronger compared to the protective formations of those powerful clans and sects. Even the major powers of the Cloud Prefecture would be envious of Qin Wentian.
"He will naturally understand this point." The Saberlord of Death nodded.
The Driftsnow Master stood on the ground, surveying his surroundings. Snowflakes drifted down from the sky as a look of longing flashed in his eyes.
"Ultimately, it no longer belongs to me." The Driftsnow Master sighed, filled with boundless desolation. Pei Yu's body trembled violently. She stared at the Driftsnow Master, "Are you going to leave?"
"Mhm, it's time for me to leave." The Driftsnow Master nodded.
"If I'm willing to use my body to host your soul, would I be able to revive you like now, never to leave again?" Pei Yu's eyes were filled with infatuation. She stared at the Driftsnow Master as tears could be seen in the corners of her eyes.
"Silly lass." The Driftsnow Master sighed. Earlier when he entered Pei Yu's mind, he had already seen through her emotions.
"I'm someone who has already died, there's no need for longing. The world of mortals is so beautiful, you should enjoy it well." The Driftsnow Master laughed. The snowflakes drifted down at an even faster speed as the Driftsnow Master's body gradually turned illusory. Pei Yu only felt an unbearable pain.
"BOOM!" When the bell chimed, Qin Wentian's countenance appeared there. The Nine Immortality Bells stood tall, the chimes of the bells accompanied the snowflakes dancing in the air.
"The bell chimes rang out, are you thinking of Immortal Jade again?" Pei Yu inclined her head, staring at the snowflakes in the air. This snow was so beautiful, it was his tears.
At this moment, Qin Wentian was extremely weak. The boundless radiance around him dissipated as he took out a robe and wrapped it around his body. He returned to his original state and when he saw the reluctance in Pei Yu's eyes, he could sense a faint sense of sadness.
"Pei Yu actually fell in love with the Driftsnow Master?" A strange emotion appeared in Qin Wentian's heart. Pei Yu had always been fond of the story between the Driftsnow Master and Immortal Jade. She was especially affected by the deep emotions of the Driftsnow Master. Who would have thought that such emotions that were rooted deep in her heart would actually be stirred up by the appearance of the Driftsnow Master.
"Why don't you leave together with me?" The Saberlord spoke to Pei Yu. Right now, it was no longer suitable for Pei Yu to stay behind. After all, she had helped the Driftsnow Master before.
"No, I will stay behind to accompany him." Pei Yu shook her head. She stared at Qin Wentian, "The Driftsnow Master left this city for you, it has the ability to fly. He said that after you step into the immortal-foundation realm, you can come back to retrieve this city."
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded. He stared at Pei Yu, "Let's leave together, it's too dangerous for you to stay behind."
"No need, I like this city." Pei Yu smiled. Qin Wentian stared at her expression, he knew that he wouldn't be able to convince this girl before him.
"Your obsession is too deep." The Saberlord sighed.
"Qin Wentian, come with me."
Qin Wentian stared at Pei Yu, only to see her smiling at him. He couldn't help but feel helpless, he could only nod his head to the Saberlord.
"If you want to touch this city, think carefully about the consequences." The Saberlord spoke, bringing Qin Wentian and Mu Yan away. In the air, Qin Wentian stared at the ancient city below. Within that ancient city, Pei Yu quietly sat there, staring at the drifting snowflakes in a daze. What would her fate be?!
