Chapter 1745: To Stand Out
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Qin Wentian’s voice wasn’t loud but each of his words were like thunder blasting into the hearts of everyone.
Today was the grand banquet only held once in a hundred years. Many people were able to see the Realmlord who was the symbol of their faith. This event held today, was the largest occasion in the entire Lifelong Realm.
However, during today where there’s such a grand occasion, Qin Wentian who was a Palace Lord under the Lifelong Realmlord, had actually publicly insulted him by saying that despite living to such an age the Realmlord was still an extremely lecherous, despicable and completely shameless individual.
Insulting the Realmlord, no one dared to imagine that such a matter would occur. But right now, there was actually someone doing so, causing many to still be in a daze.
They came here to attend the banquet, they came here to see which supreme geniuses would appear this time around. Who would have thought that they would actually see a storm unfolding?
In the history of the Lifelong Realm, such a thing has never happened before. Let alone insulting the Realmlord in public, no one would even dare to do so. The Realmlord was a lofty existence, the master of the Lifelong Realm. Who would dare to show him disrespect?
Many people felt their hearts trembling, even the various palace lords didn’t expect Qin Wentian to come on so ferociously. Qin Wentian’s retaliation was so sharp and direct. Borrowing my woman for a dance? In that case, I shall insult you in public. You are a shameless and lecherous man.
Even the Sword Spirit Sect and the other peak powers were stunned. This fellow…was he courting death?
Countless gazes turned to the Lifelong Realmlord. They were speculating what the Lifelong Realmlord was currently thinking about now? Most probably, the killing intent in his heart should have towered up into the sky.
The Lifelong Realmlord continued to sit there, actually not saying anything. Even he himself was shocked by Qin Wentian’s words. Who was he? He was the master of the Lifelong Realm. Never would he expect that Qin Wentian would dare to insult him in public. So what even if he used a thousand blades to pierce Qin Wentian now? His reputation was already damaged.
At this moment, he was pondering over how exactly he should handle Qin Wentian, Qin Wentian’s women, and Qin Wentian’s family. Many venomous methods of punishment instantly appeared in his mind. He wanted to make Qin Wentian regret ever living in this world.
The Skyair Palace Lord was enraged as well, the killing intent in his heart grew even stronger. Qin Wentian would die for sure today, no one would be able to save him. So what even if he really was World Overlord Yi’s disciple? Daring to insult the Lifelong Realmlord, who was the same level as World Overlord Yi, even if the Lifelong Realmlord killed Qin Wentian, what could Yi say?
Qin Wentian would definitely die today. What they needed to do now was to cleanse the Realmlord’s reputation. Everyone in the world was watching. The things that happened today would swiftly be circulated around the entire Lifelong Realm. If Qin Wentian’s words were taken as the truth, the Lifelong Realmlord who is the symbol of faith, a supreme existence, would then have an inerasable black spot on his reputation forever.
“Realmlord, your subordinate begs for a chance to act for you. I’ll capture the Lifire Palace Lord and I shall kill him on behalf of you.” The Dragonsaddle Palace Lord spoke.
“My Sword Spirit Sect is willing to be the one acting on behalf of Realmlord as well.” The sect leader of the Sword Spirit Sect stood up and personally spoke.
“This subordinate also seeks Realmlord’s approval for me to kill Qin Wentian, I shall capture all his subordinates.” The Scarlet Origin Palace Lord also expressed his stance. After that, the experts from many powers stood up as righteous indignation fills their heart. It felt as though the one Qin Wentian was insulting wasn’t the Lifelong Realmlord but was them instead.
At this moment, they naturally had to stand out to express their attitude, displaying their loyalty.
A huge clamor instantly rang out. But in the midst of this commotion, those who were more observant would discover that both the Desolate Heaven Palace Lord and the Xuanyuan Palace Lord, who were major characters, actually didn’t express their stance or say anything. Naturally, they had no need to say anything because they would definitely stand by the Realmlord’s side. They were just waiting for the Realmlord to give the order, right?
Only to see that at this moment, the Lifelong Realmlord lifted his hand. In an instant, all the clamor turned to silence. From this, one could see how imposing the Lifelong Realmlord was.
“Beiming Youhuang.” The Lifelong Realmlord suddenly spoke, staring at Beiming Youhuang. “You are the most clear about what happened back then. I did indeed hesitate whether or not to give Qin Wentian the Lifire Palace Lord’s position. In my perspective, there are still others worthy of a consideration. And as for me, it’s because I admired you that I wished for you to become my woman. I did ask you for your opinion did I not? You didn’t reject me then. How could I as the Lifelong Realmlord force myself onto a woman?”
“Also Qin Wentian, despite you killing the previous Lifire Palace Lord, I didn’t hold it against you and even gave you the Lifire Palace Lord’s position, freeing Ye Qianyu allowing her to reunite with you. However, I had no idea about your relationship with Beiming Youhuang. You guys could have told me then, how would I be calculative about such things? Why do you want to try and tarnish my reputation now?”
“Master, this adulterous couple definitely has something going on and even dared to hide this from Master. Most probably their aim was to get the Lifire Palace Lord’s position. And now, when Beiming Youhuang saw the date of Master making the announcement was getting nearer, she suddenly regretted it, deciding to repay your kindness with enmity and even tried to tarnish Master’s reputation. Master, you must not easily spare such despicable people.” The Skyair Palace Lord coordinated beautifully and spoke out, the two of them echoing each other. It was like Qin Wentian and Beiming Youhuang were the despicable ones who repaid kindness with enmity.
“Fascinating.” Qin Wentian praised. “The relationship between I and Youhuang is one that’s filled with innocence. I, Qin Wentian, am an upright and frank man, how would I not dare to admit the identity of my own woman? Ye Qianyu is precisely my woman. It was only for the sake of her that I entered the Lifire Palace. The Realmlord should very well be aware of this point. Also, when I became the new Lifire Palace Lord, I announced the fact that she is my woman to the entire world. It’s impossible for the Realmlord to not know of this, right? However, Realmlord actually imprisoned my woman in the Lifelong Sainthall. What’s the purpose of doing this? Is this showing ‘kindness’ to me? The Realmlord claims my woman as a dancer, wanting her to perform before everyone else. The crowd responded with many lewd remarks as they stared at my woman with ill-concealed lust. Is this also considered a part of the Realmlord’s ‘kindness’?”
“Lifelong Realmlord, just the incident earlier is already sufficient to let everyone in the world know what sort of person you are. The two fairies beside you are extremely outstanding in terms of beauty, why don’t you get them to dance so everyone here can admire them. How about it?” Qin Wentian calmly spoke.
“You dare to be disrespectful to the two fairies?!” The Skyair Palace Lord angrily roared.
“I heard that the Lifelong Realmlord has a harem filled with beauties. So what even if two of them stepped out to perform a dance? Naturally, maybe these two were also forced to join his harem because of his threats. If this is the case, I, Qin, will apologize to the two fairies.” Qin Wentian spoke. The Realmlord wanted to cleanse his reputation? Is it even possible?
The Lifelong Realmlord suddenly laughed. “This seat has lived for countless years. As the master of an entire realm, I’ve met countless beauties through the years. So what even if I have a harem full of beauties? There are countless women in the world who wish to become my woman. Do I even need to threaten them?”
“Today is the day of the grand banquet and it should initially be a very happy thing yet someone actually spoiled all the atmosphere. Is there anyone willing to help this seat to capture this rebellious man?” The Lifelong Realmlord calmly spoke.
“We are willing to aid Realmlord.” At this moment, experts from many major powers all stood up, expressing their willing attitudes. The Lifelong Realmlord continued sitting there. For such matters, there was basically no need for him to act, it would be a loss to his status. Given his status, he only needed to give a single command. He wanted to see why Qin Wentian dared to do this. Who was it that given him such courage.
In an instant, countless experts stepped out, surrounding the platform the people of the Lifire Palace was on. At this moment, the expression of countless people on the Lifire Platform changed, including many monarch and governor-level characters. There were also many experts from the peak powers in the Lifire Territories. Although they came here with Qin Wentian, they weren’t willing to stick together with him to face the Lifelong Realmlord’s wrath.
This Qin Wentian was probably 80% crazy and was courting death. They didn’t want to send themselves to death. Someone instantly spoke, “Although I’m a monarch of the Lifire Palace, I’m ultimately still Realmlord’s subordinate and would never dare to do such a rebellious act. I beg Realmlord for forgiveness.”
“Those who have nothing to do with this, just step out now. I won’t pursue it.” The Lifelong Realmlord calmly spoke. At this moment, he naturally wouldn’t be stingy, he would rather show off his magnamious bearing.
In an instant, several monarchs stepped out. Those who went with Qin Wentian to the lower world all hesitated. They felt that Qin Wentian’s actions today were a little too crazy. Do they still want to stick with him and continued walking down this path?
Although they once silently vowed to themselves saying that they would follow Qin Wentian from now on, but in the times of life and death and with the Lifelong Realmlord as the opponent, they naturally had to be cautious.
Very swiftly, more people stepped out and moved away. Qin Wentian didn’t stop them. The number of experts on the platform for the Lifire Palace continuously dwindled in number. It was then strange if they didn’t make their escape now. They didn’t wish to die together with Qin Wentian.
“Qin Wentian, just give yourself up.” The Sword Spirit Sect’s leader personally acted, the sword intent from him felt incomparably sharp. Qin Wentian saw experts from all areas surrounding him. He then calmly glanced at the other platforms. Even at this moment, the Desolate Heaven Palace, Xuanyuan Palace and Jialan Clan didn’t act.
Before Qin Wentian displayed enough strength to contend against the Lifelong Realmlord, they naturally wouldn’t do anything. Even though they might support Qin Wentian in their hearts, they still needed Qin Wentian to be powerful enough or they would simply be sending themselves to death.
“You are truly foolish.” Qin Wentian stared at the sect leader of the Sword Spirit Sect, his words causing the eyes of the sect leader to sharpen. His sword intent grew even stronger as ancient sword sages manifested around him, brimming with killing intent.
“Since I dare to come here today, my objective is clearly to contend against the Lifelong Realmlord. Why are you in such a rush to gain merit to flatter the Lifelong Realmlord? Could it be that you’ve never thought about the fact that what if I have the strength to contend against the Lifelong Realmlord? At that time, what ending would your Sword Spirit Sect face?” Qin Wentian’s words caused the Sword Spirit Sect Leader’s expression to change as unease appeared in his heart.
Could it be that Qin Wentian truly came here prepared? He had someone behind his back that could contend against the Lifelong Realmlord? He still didn’t dare to think in the direction that Qin Wentian himself might already have enough strength to do so on his own.
“Just based on your words and agreeing with the Lifelong Realmlord earlier, speaking disrespectful words about my woman, the Sword Spirit Sect shall cease to exist today. Since you wish to stand out so much, I shall grant you your wish.” As the sound of Qin Wentian’s voice faded, the white robes he wore fluttered. A bright light flashed, a beam of light directly blasted into the body of the Spirit Sword Sect’s sect leader.
“ARGHH!” A voice filled with incomparable agony rang out. The crowd watched on, stunned. The body of the Spirit Sword Sect Leader was instantly riddled with countless holes as he disintegrated before their eyes.
At this moment, the sect leader’s face was filled with boundless fear and panic. He stared in shock at Qin Wentian as endless regrets appeared in his heart.
From today onwards, the Sword Spirit Sect shall cease to exist in this world!
“No…!” The Sword Spirit Sect Leader howled. After that, his body slowly turned illusory and a few moments later, he directly transformed into dust which dissipated along with the wind!
