Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
"Chi."
All of a sudden, the sound of a light laughter rang out. The third princess covered her mouth, as she giggled, causing the tensed atmosphere to relax. Her smile seemed to contain a magical power in it.
The first devil general retracted his gaze, turning back to the third princess.
"The two of you are peak-level generals of my Blackstone Devil Sect, and both of you are naturally extremely powerful." The third princess laughed. "Everyone, you guys can go back first. I wish to converse alone together with General Qin."
The eyes of the first devil general flashed with sharpness, only to see the princess looking right at him. He could only nod his head as he stood up and departed the area. When the other experts here saw the first devil general leaving, they too also left, but not before casting a deep glance at Qin Wentian.
Even all the attendants left. Over here, only Qin Wentian and the third princess remained.
Qin Wentian quietly enjoyed his tea, not glancing at the third princess. He couldn't be bother to speculate what she was doing. What will come, will come.
"You are truly audacious, daring to use an innate eye technique to spy on my thoughts. There's no respect for me at all in your eyes." The third princess suddenly changed, exuding coldness, extremely different from her warm and gentle self earlier.
"Beautiful women are there to be admired, not to be respected. Third princess is such a rare beauty. I, Qin, am merely a common man, I naturally only know how to admire beauty when I see it. Please do not take offence." Qin Wentian placed his tea cup down and looked into her eyes, not fearing to match her gaze at all.
Although this woman might have no evil intentions towards him, it was clear she purposely caused a conflict between him and the first devil general, wanting to use them to probe his strength. How could the princess of a devil sect be so simple?
"Are you really admiring my beauty? Why can't this princess tell?" The third princess' lips curled up in a smile. Qin Wentian's gaze clearly saw through her.
Only to see Qin Wentian stretching out his hands, placing his palm on the back of the princess's hand. This caused the third princess to frown suddenly as her eyes gleamed with sharpness.
"Does princess think that only this can be counted as admiration?" Qin Wentian asked quietly.
"Your guts are truly big. Do you know where you are?" The third princess stared at Qin Wentian.
"Princess' earlier performance was truly praiseworthy, intentionally creating a smoke screen to get me to remain behind. Didn't you do this because you want the other devil generals to misunderstand? Since I, Qin, am already fated to become a scapegoat, I have to get some benefits no matter what, right?" As he spoke, Qin Wentian brazenly continued holding on to the soft hands of the third princess as a cold smile flashed in his eyes.
But at this moment, the cold-looking face of the third princess suddenly flashed with a beautiful smile. "You think that I'm pretty?"
"Doesn't princess think so?" Qin Wentian stared at him. The expression of this devil girl truly changed extremely quickly. She was much more formidable compared to Lu Xuejia.
"I've no fiance yet." The third princess laughed. "In this huge sect, not many are qualified enough to be with me. I'm sure you have some purpose coming here to our sect from the immortal realms. Are you willing to stay behind in our Blackstone Devil Sect?"
"Princess, what do you mean exactly?" Qin Wentian retracted his hands, he couldn't see through what this woman was thinking about at all.
"What? You don't dare to hold my hand any longer? Are you afraid that I will make you remain behind?" The body of the third princess moved closer to Qin Wentian, her delicate frame gently leaning against him. "Aren't you very audacious? You will be afraid too?"
"Princess, you might have overestimated my resistance to beauties." Qin Wentian laughed. He then actually put his hands around the waist of the third princess, allowing her to lie down on his thighs. Staring at her beautiful face, "Qin Wentian smiled, "Princess, your body is so soft to the touch."
As he spoke, Qin Wentian actually lowered his head, as though he wanted to kiss her. The third princess trembled and instantly leapt up from him with a speed as fast as lightning. She stood up, and just as Qin Wentian has expected, her legs were exquisitely long, exuding grace and charm.
"You are truly gutsy. I will remember you, Qin Wentian. You can return now." The third princess spoke.
Qin Wentian laughed softly as he drank the tea. After which he stood up and spoke, "Princess, I will take my leave then."
As he did so, he directly turned and departed the area.
After he left, the third princess was still staring at his back as a strange silhouette appeared beside her.
"Hahaha, my daughter was actually teased by someone. Do you want me to kill him?" A voice rang out, as the silhouette fully manifested. It was a tyrannical-looking figure dressed in black.
The father of the third princess, this man was naturally the Blackstone Devil King.
"Father, you…" The third princess's face reddened when the Blackstone Devil King appeared.
"Hahaha." The devil king laughed. "Tell me the truth, did you fall in love with him because that little fellow killed Zong Yan? From my impressions, my daughter has never been so close to a man before, let alone allowing one to touch her."
"How can that be." The third princess coldly replied. "That brat is extremely cunning, but he's truly extraordinary, able to jump two levels to kill Zong Yan. According to our informers in the third devil palace, the power of his single strike was shockingly overwhelming, and Zong Yan would have been killed even if he was stronger. Today, I intentionally caused him to have a conflict with the first devil general, wanting to probe him and hear what his true intentions are. Who would have thought that he is so crafty."
"He only took advantage of you and didn't reveal any of his true intentions, right?" The devil king continued laughing. "But since you don't like him, I will go kill him off then."
"Father!" The third princess rolled her eyes at the Blackstone Devil King.
"Okay, okay, I won't kill him, I won't kill him." The Blackstone Devil King was extremely awe-inspiring in the sect, he would only be so carefree in front of his daughters.
"What do you think he rates, when compared to Xuan Ting?" The devil king asked.
Xuan Ting, was the name of the first devil general.
The Blackstone Devil King also knew that Xuan Ting has always been wooing his daughter.
"He should be more outstanding compared to Xuan Ting. Even now, Xuan Ting might not be able to win against him for certain. Most probably, we will soon be able to tell who's stronger." The third princess spoke.
"Seems like he only took advantage of you because you set him up for something. However, this brat truly has the guts. Maybe I should find an opportunity to teach him a good lesson." The Blackstone Devil King coldly spoke.
"Father, don't you love guys who are gusty? Maybe you will like him?" The third princess glared at her father.
"Haha, my daughter knows me best." The devil king laughed uproariously. "Although Xuan Ting isn't too bad, that fellow has cultivated for so long and still hasn't broken through to the immortal king realm. His talent is still somewhat weak. Also, you should have felt the bones of Qin Wentian earlier. How old is Qin Wentian in any case?"
"He has definitely cultivated for less than two hundred years." The third princess spoke. So it turned out that she allowed Qin Wentian to touch her, was because she wanted to ascertain his cultivation age.
"In that case, he is more suitable for you compared to Xuan Ting." The devil king spoke.
"Father, he originates from the immortal realms. Given his level of cultivation base and his age, as well as the cultivation arts and innate techniques which he practices that we know from our informers, do you think that his identity in the immortal realms would be simple? Most probably, his status isn't below mine. You didn't see that in his gaze when he was facing me, there was no fear or reverence at all."
The third princess spoke in a somewhat depressed tone. As the favored daughter of the Blackstone Devil King, she has never suffered such a disadvantage to a guy before.
"Mhm, my daughter truly has foresight indeed." The devil king nodded. "However, if he dares to marry you and leave just like that. Just see if I will kill him or not, no matter who he is in the immortal realms. If not, you can choose to leave with him together when he heads back there too."
"Stop fooling around." The third princess was completely at her wit's end when facing her father.
"Fooling around?" The Blackstone Devil King laughed. This lass… Seems like things were getting more and more interesting. If not, she would long have been already impatient, given her personality. How would she talk for so long with him about a man? Even for the first devil general, she has never mentioned it to him before.
As for Qin Wentian, this was merely the first time she met him. That person who killed Zong Yan truly did seem to have some capabilities.
Qin Wentian walked out of the residence and found Juyu waiting outside for him. Upon seeing his return, Juyu came over and asked, "Are you alright?"
"Let's return." Qin Wentian soared up into the air after he spoke while Juyu followed behind him. She then continued, "Earlier, the first devil general exited as well and the gaze he looked at me with was extremely cold, as though filled with killing intent. Did you have a conflict with him?"
"The first devil general is fond of the third princess." Qin Wentian replied.
"Oh?" The eyes of Juyu flashed. "Then, for what matter did the third princess invite you here for?"
"She finds me too outstanding, hence she took the initiative to seduce me, wanting me to marry her." Qin Wentian joked, his words causing Juyu to roll her eyes as she scolded in a low voice, "Shameless!"
"So you know how to laugh as well." Qin Wentian smiled. "I'm just joking, but things were the truth, albeit being slightly exaggerated. The third princess has the intention to create an illusion, causing a misunderstanding to arise between me and the first devil general. She wanted to use him to probe me. In the future, I'm afraid we would have a strong enemy to contend against."
"Mhm, a precise explanation. I'm sure the third princess is extremely curious about you." Juyu analysed. "In any case, no matter if it is the princess or the first devil general, they are both extremely intelligent."
"Are you not worried about the first devil general?" Qin Wentian glanced at Juyu as he spoke, after hearing her calm tone.
"Seeing how relaxed you are, it doesn't seem that we will be facing a strong enemy at all. You seem to be extremely confident and maybe, even for the first devil general, you feel that he is not qualified to be your opponent. How strong are you exactly?" Juyu curiously stared at Qin Wentian. She couldn't tell the depths of this fellow's strength at all.
"Seventh-level of immortal-foundation, which is equivalent to the seventh-level of devil-foundation. How strong can I be? I still need to cultivate the same as everyone else when I return." Qin Wentian shrugged as he increased his speed.
After this, news was circulated around the devil sect that the first devil general was very unhappy with the new third-ranked general Qin Wentian.
The reason for his unhappiness is that, Qin Wentian was extremely rude during the invitation by the third princess, holding no respect for him at all.
This caused many experts in the sect to speculate that could it be this newly-ranked third general who killed Zong Yan, also had the power to contend with the first devil general?
The first devil general has been holding this position for an extremely long time. It was unknown how strong he truly was. But one thing was for sure, he was much much stronger compared to Zong Yan.
