Qin Wentian calmly glanced at Xuan Xing, "No matter what I obtained, it's already mine. What do you want?"
Right now, Qin Wentian couldn't be bothered to explain anything. No matter how he explained, these people wouldn't believe him. They would only believe what they wanted to know.
Xuan Xing walked forward and smiled, "If you know what's good for you, it's best if you hand over the treasure you obtained. Maybe I can spare you."
Many geniuses from the Twin Stars Alliance followed behind Xuan Xing, all of them exuding tyrannical auras. Zi Qingxuan and Jun Mengchen both had cold looks on their faces when they saw this scene. Ever since they entered the City of Ancient Emperors, they had always been under the control of others. Such a feeling was truly stifling. If they knew this would happen, they would have cultivated to the eighth-level or ninth-level of Celestial Phenomenon before entering the City of Ancient Emperors. At that time, these people would understand how powerful disciples from the Heavenly Talisman Realm were.
"Xuan Xing, what do you want?" Only to see at this moment, Xiao Lengyue brought her people over. Similarly, the geniuses here were as common as the clouds, and it seemed as though they were about to confront the people from the Twin Stars Alliance.
"Xiao Lengyue, if he doesn't give an explanation for this matter, I'm afraid this matter won't be resolved so easily." Xuan Xing glanced at Xiao Lengyue and her group.
"Is that so? He's a member of my Xiao Gate. Whatever he obtains is his own fortune. What right does your Xuan Xing have to interfere? If you really want to touch him, my Xiao Gate is not afraid of your Twin Stars Alliance. We can even go to war." We can even start a war. "Xiao Lengyue coldly spoke, her words causing those geniuses who entered later to scratch their heads in confusion. As expected of the # 6 ranker on the Immortal Ascension Rankings, Xiao Lengyue actually wanted to start a war against the Twin Stars Alliance for the sake of Qin Wentian?
The geniuses from both sides stared at each other, the atmosphere extremely tense.
"Does your Xiao Sect really want to start a war against my Twin Stars Alliance for the sake of him?" Xuan Xing heavily asked.
"Yes." Xiao Lengyue didn't hesitate.
"Very good." Xuan Xing laughed uproariously. He stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke, "Brat, consider yourself lucky today. However, since we are in the City of Ancient Emperors, there's no need to worry about you escaping. I truly want to see how the Xiao Sect will protect you. Let's go."
As the sound of his voice faded, Xuan Xing waved his hand and led the crowd away.
Qin Wentian's gaze was fixed on Xuan Xing from the start to the end. His countenance was cold and he was already prepared for battle. However, this battle that should have erupted eventually calmed down because of Xiao Lengyue's interference. Qin Wentian also suppressed the flames of anger in his heart. The others would gradually forget the oracular chant but he didn't. He felt that he would be able to cultivate it. But now wasn't the time for him to fight.
Before this, during his cultivation, Qin Wentian felt an extremely profound feeling. The melody of the Great Dao echoed in his mind and he faintly sensed that this oracular chant might really be something left behind by Ancient Emperor Yi. Also, there was a high possibility that this oracular chant contained the inheritance of Ancient Emperor Yi's ultimate art, God's Hand.
However, Qin Wentian could clearly sense the profoundness within. If he could cultivate it, his combat prowess would soar to another level.
Now, he had to endure it for a little longer. The geniuses in the City of Ancient Emperors were as common as the clouds and descendants of immortal kings and emperors could be found everywhere. However, he would eventually reveal his true glory.
After a few more years, the people in the City of Ancient Emperors wouldn't treat him like this anymore. No one would dare to do this to him and they would finally know what sort of character Qin Wentian was.
"Many thanks." Qin Wentian smiled at Xiao Lengyue.
"It's what I should do." Xiao Lengyue revealed a profound smile to Qin Wentian. "Since we are all members of the Xiao Sect, we should share weal and woe together."
"Share weal and woe together?" Qin Wentian laughed in his heart, but he didn't say anything more.
"Let's go, let's return to the Xiao Sect together. If there are still people who wish to comprehend the inscriptions, you can continue staying here." Xiao Lengyue was somewhat disappointed with this trip. She had wasted half a year's time and was trapped in the underground palace. During that period of time, the pressure in her heart was extremely great. It wasn't easy for her to exit the palace and even saw the oracular chant. However, she didn't manage to comprehend anything from it.
To Xiao Lengyue, this was a great failure. There was no meaning in staying here any longer. She had no way to comprehend the divine inscriptions within the statue. She might as well leave.
"Qin Wentian, do you still want to stay here to comprehend it?" Xiao Lengyue asked.
"Nope, this oracular chant is too profound and I have no way to comprehend it. Let's go." Qin Wentian smiled and stood up. Zi Qingxuan and Jun Mengchen both glanced at Qin Wentian only to hear Qin Wentian speaking to them, "There's an oracular chant behind the statue. You guys can give it a try but don't have too much hope."
"Right." Zi Qingxuan and Jun Mengchen nodded their heads as they walked towards the statue. Qin Wentian then followed Xiao Lengyue out of the emperor palace. More and more experts were still gathering here. Not far away, a silhouette exuded a magnificence that exuded magnificence through the generations, not losing out to Xiao Lengyue at all. In fact, her aura even surpassed Xiao Lengyue's.
This person was none other than a female. She was clad in a phoenix robe, yet her aura was incomparably cold. Her figure was exquisite, her skin as white as jade, and the expression on her face was like a ten thousand year old glacier. Upon seeing this female, Xiao Lengyue's footsteps halted slightly. However, that female seemed to not have noticed Xiao Lengyue and directly walked past her. Such coldness caused people to not dare to look directly at her.
Many gazes turned to this female, their gazes filled with admiration. These people were all descendants of immortal kings and emperors, ordinary females wouldn't be able to enter their eyes. However, this female before them was so lofty that they couldn't even hope to reach her. If they could marry her, it would be sufficient. Their glory would be incomparable, and all the geniuses in the City of Ancient Emperors would be envious of them.
That female also walked past Qin Wentian. A unique aura gushed over, refreshing the heart and mind.
"This female is extraordinary. Even Xiao Lengyue halted. It should be her." Qin Wentian silently mused. There were three most outstanding females in the City of Ancient Emperors. One of them was Xiao Lengyue, the other was Qing 'er whom he had been searching for. And the last female was the one with the highest ranking, ranked # 3 in the Immortal Ascension Rankings. Her name was Namhwang Yunxi. This should be her.
Xiao Lengyue paused for a moment, but when she saw that Namhwang Yunxi wasn't even looking at her, she couldn't help but have an unhappy expression on her face. She lifted her foot and continued on her way, returning to the Xiao Sect.
The group of them soared through the air with incredible speed. Beside Qin Wentian, a figure appeared. It was none other than a genius of the Xiao Sect, Li Yu, an expert ranked within the top 100 of the Immortal Ascension Rankings. He stood beside Qin Wentian and spoke in a low voice, "Many thanks."
Qin Wentian's countenance stiffened. He inclined his head and glanced at Li Yu. He naturally understood why Li Yu said thanks. It was just that from the time he brought them out of the underground palace until now, Li Yu was the first and only person to thank him.
Smiling at Li Yu, Qin Wentian nodded his head and didn't say anything more.
After returning to the Xiao Sect, the geniuses all returned to their own places. Qin Wentian also returned to his courtyard and continued his cultivation. However, he didn't cultivate for long before he opened his eyes and spoke, "Come in."
The sound of footsteps rang out as Xiao Lengyue's beautiful silhouette appeared. Xiao Lengyue had changed into a long green dress, exuding an incomparable charm and beauty akin to a fairy. She smiled sweetly at Qin Wentian as she spoke, "Why? You've just returned and you want to continue cultivating?"
"I know my cultivation base is too low, and I would be threatened by others from time to time. I naturally have to work harder." Qin Wentian laughed. He was naturally referring to the things that had happened during this period of time.
"You don't have to be so calculative. Since you've joined the Xiao Sect, I will naturally take care of you. In addition, I've already treated you as a friend." Xiao Lengyue smiled. Her figure and countenance caused Qin Wentian to silently praise her in his heart. This Xiao Lengyue was truly a stunner.
"Being able to have such a beauty as a friend, I'm truly envious." Qin Wentian laughed. Xiao Lengyue walked to a spot not far away from Qin Wentian and actually sat down right in front of Qin Wentian. Her beauty was so close that it was sufficient to cause the heartbeats of others to quicken.
"Your talent is extraordinary, and you also have a high attainment in the Dao of Divine Inscriptions. In the future, you would definitely have extraordinary accomplishments. Within the top hundred of the Immortal Ascension Rankings, there would definitely be a place for you, or even higher." Xiao Lengyue smiled. "Your comprehension ability is also extraordinary. Earlier in the emperor palace, none of us could comprehend the oracular chant and gradually forgot about it. Only you continued to comprehend it. You should have discovered something, right?"
"This oracular chant is extraordinary, I've indeed comprehended it." Qin Wentian nodded. Right now, his heart was like a mirror. This was what Xiao Lengyue truly wanted to ask.
"Could this oracular chant have something to do with the Ancient Emperor Secret Art?" Xiao Lengyue asked.
"Maybe." Qin Wentian didn't deny anything.
"Among all the geniuses, only you could comprehend this oracular chant. This should have something to do with what you encountered in the underground palace earlier. Also, you were the one who unraveled the mysteries within the oracular chant. Most probably, this is the crux to why you were able to comprehend this oracular chant." Xiao Lengyue's beautiful eyes stared straight into Qin Wentian's eyes.
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded, he didn't deny it.
Xiao Lengyue's beautiful eyes flashed with a bright light. Her red lips were pursed together, causing the hearts of men to tremble. She then turned to Qin Wentian and asked in a gentle voice, "Qin Wentian, can you teach me?"
This was a world-shocking art of the Ancient Emperor Secret Art, an ultimate art that had been lost in time. Xiao Lengyue didn't mind using a honey trap just to obtain it.
How could Qin Wentian not see through her intentions? However, he still shook his head and replied, "Sect Leader, you are right. This oracular chant has a very high possibility that it has something to do with the underground palace. However, it's precisely because I unraveled the mysteries within the oracular chant that I was able to faintly sense the power contained within. However, I'm still unable to comprehend it. And just like what you said, I'm the only one who managed to unravel the mysteries within the oracular chant. Hence, this is the ending. Other than me, there's no one else who could comprehend the oracular chant at all. This is a certainty, and those who came after me wouldn't be able to do so as well. In addition, I have no way to teach you."
Xiao Lengyue's countenance changed when she heard Qin Wentian's words. However, she instantly regained her composure and smiled, "There's only the two of us. Why must you hide this from me? You should have obtained something in the underground palace, right?"
When Qin Wentian heard this, the last trace of hope he had for Xiao Lengyue was completely shattered. Before this, she had already asked Qin Wentian several times and Qin Wentian had clearly replied that it was merely a map. Now that she asked this question again, it was clear that in Xiao Lengyue's heart, her thoughts were the same as Xuan Xing's. There was no difference between the two of them.
"If I say I didn't, would you believe me?" Qin Wentian stared at Xiao Lengyue's beautiful eyes. He could see the smile in Xiao Lengyue's eyes slowly vanishing.
