Chapter 1525: So Beautiful that it Hurts
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
How could Matriarch Ji not understand the intentions of the Violet Emperor? Her imposing eyes coldly looked at the Violet Emperor, “There’s no need for you to try and intimidate people. Violet Emperor, you can also be considered a peak-stage immortal emperor and have been famous for a long time. Back then because of Zi Daoyang’s death, you started to make things difficult for Qin Wentian. I heard you even sent people to the Evergreen Immortal Empire wanting to capture him, using your seniority as an excuse. What happened in the end? Nobody gave you face, your embarrassment turned to anger and you decided to continue hunting a junior. But now, look where your brilliant choices led you? It led you to the death of another son.”
Matriarch Ji’s words prodded at the sore spot in the Violet Emperor’s heart. His eyes flashed with terrifying violet light.
“Stop acting so mighty. If you didn’t borrow the might of everyone who gathered here, I truly don’t have you in my eyes. Qin Wentian killed your son and you want to bully him who is merely a junior. You can very well send your subordinates to hunt him down, but all of them failed and caused you to lose more face. But, you have no shame. You even came here to the Evergreen Immortal Empire, wanting to use the life of my disciple to threaten Qin Wentian to appear. A peak-stage immortal emperor? What a glorious matter.”
Matriarch Ji didn’t care about his face. She then coldly stared at the experts in the surroundings, “My intent is clear, since you guys can be so shameless and do things to this extent, in the future, I shall definitely repay this favor, forming an alliance to storm the Violet Mountain. At that time, I hope that you, the Violet Emperor, would still be able to act so imposing before me.”
Those who could cultivate to the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm, were all naturally extraordinary geniuses. Matriarch Ji was one of the strongest in the immortal realms, yet her personal disciple Qing`er was almost captured and used as a form of threat. One could naturally imagine how she would feel in her heart. Hence, she directly went for broke and threatened the Violet Emperor here. Not only him, she also included the other major powers in the threat.
Today, because all these powers wanted to kill Qin Wentian, but none could manage to do it alone, they decided to come here together. But what about after they killed Qin Wentian? Wouldn’t Matriarch Ji, the Evergreen Immortal Empire, the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, the Southern Phoenix Clan, form an alliance and strike back? If they allied together, which singular power they targeted would be able to stand against them?
As the sound of her voice faded, the expressions of the other major powers in the east all changed. Regardless of their geographical locations or strength, they would definitely be included in the other party’s revenge.
In this space, there were even many powerful characters who came here to spectate. All of them coldly laughed in their hearts, and had the expression of someone watching a good drama. The immortal realms would fall into chaos sooner or later. It would be for the best if these major powers who wished to act, started a conflict now and caused everyone’s strength to diminish. After all, by coming here to participate, these powers have already offended the Evergreen Immortal Empire to the limits.
Matriarch Ji has always been close to the Evergreen Immortal Empire. And there was also their relationship with Qing`er. In the future in the chaotic immortal realms, they would definitely ally together.
But now, those major powers who participated were like riding on the back of a mounted tiger, it was too difficult for them to get off. The only way to do so was that they had to kill Matriarch Ji and the Evergreen Immortal Emperor in one shot, not allowing them to survive. However, how could things be so easy? Matriarch Ji was someone that’s proficient in spatial energy and is also a peak-stage immortal emperor. If she couldn’t win, can’t she choose to flee? Let alone, the White Emperor was still out there somewhere. If they chose to act against Matriarch Ji’s sect now, the follow up revenge they had to endure would definitely be even more ruthless.
“I only want the life of Qin Wentian. Whoever blocks me, shall be the enemy of my Senluo Immortal Empire. Whoever wants revenge, just come at me straight in the future.” The Senluo Immortal Emperor icily spoke. His son with the highest talent was already killed. Regardless of who Qin Wentian is, regardless of the consequences, he had to kill Qin Wentian today.
“If Qin Wentian doesn’t die, we shall destroy the Evergreen Immortal Empire.” A phoeroc coldly spoke. Jia Huangtian was also one of the phoerocs with the strongest talents, but he has already died.
More and more experts arrived, including those who had nothing to do with this. For example, the people from the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty, the Hundred Refinements Sect, the Jadestage Immortal Palace, and the other demonic races of the desolate mountain range.
“The Southern Phoenix Clan actually didn’t show up?” A cold voice rang out. It was from the experts of the Ancient Ying Clan. They always had conflict with the Southern Phoenix Clan and as part of the three hegemons of the southern regions, they wanted nothing more than to implicate the Southern Phoenix Clan into this storm.
“Don’t be so anxious, the Southern Phoenix Clan will appear for sure.” A person smiled. The Southern Phoenix Matriarch was acquainted with Qin Wentian and had helped when they were on the Demongod Mountain before.
Also, everyone knew that the relationship between Qin Wentian and the Southern Phoenix Clan wasn’t a shallow one. They would surely show up.
“Even so many devil cultivators from the Myriad Devil Islands came. Seems like today is going to be a lively day.” Someone in the crowd glanced in a certain direction. Many devil cultivators gathered over there, their auras cold and tyrannical, flowing with devil might. Although they were gathered in a single location, they belonged to different factions.
“There are even quite a few monks from the Askheart Temple.” From another direction, a few monks wearing kasaya could be seen. They were purely buddhist cultivators, different from the Jiang Clan. Although the Jiang Clan cultivated buddhist-path techniques and arts, they weren’t considered pure buddhists.
More and more experts appeared. There were several experts from the upper echelons of the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect appearing as well, including the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord and Bai Wuya.
Eastern Sage coldly glanced over. Other than Qin Wentian, the ones he hated most were none other than the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord and Bai Wuya, he wanted nothing more than to shatter their bones into pieces. Other than them, the Pure Yang Sword Emperor, and the senior who inducted Jun Mengchen, who was an old man with a celestial appearance who also had helped out in the war against the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect and Eastern Sage Sect, were also in his kill list as well.
There were actually four immortal emperors right now in the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, causing many to feel shock in their hearts.
The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord naturally could feel the cold gaze from the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. He turned and matched his gaze, “Eastern Sage, to think that after your Eastern Sage Immortal Sect was destroyed, you are actually willing to become a dog for someone else. How pitiful, you have wasted an entire lifetime of your cultivation.”
The someone else he was referring to, was naturally none other than Old Devil Duotian. This old devil treated his subordinates extremely harshly. Since the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor has joined the Old Devil Duotian and even asked him for help to kill Qin Wentian, it was clear that Eastern Sage had already betrayed himself.
“You guys would do best to consider for yourselves first.” The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor sinisterly replied.
Jun Mengchen came as well, he stood at the back. He had to come no matter what. But when he saw that there were so many enemies, he felt a sense of helplessness. Their enemies were simply too strong, they had no chance at all. Since the Heavenly Talisman Realm refused to mobilize its forces to aid Qin Wentian, there was simply no chance for them to save Qin Wentian at all.
“Immortals, devils and demons. Today, we are actually here for the same thing. There should be over half of the major powers in the immortal realms here today.” Someone spoke in a low voice. Including the spectators, there was undoubtedly more than 50% of the major powers in the immortal realms gathered here today.
Just for a Qin Wentian at the immortal king realm, such a huge commotion was actually triggered. If it was before this, no one would have believed it.
Many of those who have not seen Qin Wentian before, all felt extremely curious. They wanted to see what sort of character he was exactly. Right now, his fame was so widespread that everyone has heard of it. Within a hundred years, he rose up from a nameless immortal-foundation cultivator to being unrivaled in the immortal king realm. Such growth speed was truly shocking to the extreme.
In the airspace above the Evergreen Immortal Empire, more and more experts from the various major powers appeared.
When faced with such a situation, would Qin Wentian come?
If he comes, he would die without a doubt.
Qin Wentian should understand very well that this is a death situation. Would he really appear?
Many people were doubting this. After all, the Qin Wentian in the rumors is definitely an extraordinary genius. If he continues to grow, he would definitely shine in the future, rising easily to the top. For such a character, his state of heart would definitely be extremely terrifying, he naturally would also be very rationale, more to the side of logic than emotions.
Would he come here to die for the sake of a woman?
For the vast majority of the powerful characters here, they wouldn’t do so. If it was them in Qin Wentian’s shoes, they would definitely not have appeared here today. To them, preserving their life was everything. Nothing was more important than that.
Beiming Youhuang and Beiming Nongyue stood together beside the Darknorth Immortal Emperor as they quietly waited.
“Elder sister, do you think Qin Wentian will appear?” Beiming Nongyue asked softly. Although she was acquainted with Qin Wentian, she couldn’t be sure.
“For someone as shameless as him, there’s a 80% probability that he won’t appear.” Beiming Youhuang’s tone wasn’t very kind. Beiming Nongyue’s mouth twitched but she didn’t say anything. Although she didn’t want to see Qin Wentian coming here to die, her elder sister don’t really seem to like Qin Wentian.
She stared at Li Yufeng in the camp of the Hundred Refinement Sect, there was a trace of worry in his eyes. Clearly, he also didn’t want Qin Wentian to come and to send himself to death.
Even Xu Qingyao was here. She stood beside two immortal emperors. These two immortal emperors was clearly a couple, they were her parents.
Even the fox goddess of the nine-tailed fox race was here.
Pei Qing also came. Right now, he was moving towards Beiming Youhuang’s location. He bowed to the Darknorth Immortal Emperor when he arrived, “Your Majesty.”
“Pei Qing, why did you exit the city of ancient emperors as well?” The Darknorth Immortal Emperor laughed as he asked.
“I knew that Youhuang came out and I guessed it might have something to do with this commotion. Hence, I came here to watch the show too.” Pei Qing smiled. After that, he turned to Beiming Youhuang, but he was directly ignored.
Pei Qing bitterly smiled and shook his head, turning to stare at the crowd. He didn’t expect that Qin Wentian would actually manage to create a storm of such proportions. Seems like Qin Wentian must have done too much evil. He was simply courting death.
In the airspace above the palace, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, Qing`er and the others were here. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor still didn’t release the seal on Qing`er. He was worried that Qing`er would die to prevent Qin Wentian from appearing.
“Father, why must you do this?” Qing`er stared at her father with a look of sorrow on her face. She knew that Qin Wentian would come for sure. Only her and Mo Qingcheng didn’t doubt this. However, she actually didn’t want him to appear.
“As your father, I respected your choice and didn’t inform him. But then again, as your father, how can I watch you die like this?” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor sighed. “If he doesn’t show up, this means that he isn’t worthy of you. If he does appear, it means that he is a true man, I will feel proud for him.”
Qing`er closed her beautiful eyes as she sighed in her heart. At this moment, a flash of multi-colored light streaked across the sky, incomparably resplendent. In an instant, the temperature here suddenly surged up as the terrifying flames that just manifested felt as though it wanted to incinerate the heaven and earth.
Auspicious clouds rolled across the sky, transforming into the shadow of a phoenix. This phoenix was truly beautiful, capable of stirring the hearts of those who saw it.
Qing`er inclined her head, tears began to flow from her face when she saw this scene.
What a beautiful phoenix this was. Yet, why did it cause her heart to hurt so badly!
