Chapter 1747: Yi
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
The Desolate Heaven Palace is the number one palace out of the nine world palaces.
The Xuanyuan Palace is the earliest palace to follow the Realmlord. Them, including the Desolate Heaven Palace and the Skyair Palace were the strongest three out of all the world palace.
The Gemini Palace was also very powerful. Both their palace lords were not simple characters.
As for the Lifire Palace, it has already surpassed the Desolate Heaven Palace in truth because they had Qin Wentian. He alone was enough to stand above everyone.
Hence, the strength of these four world palaces had already far surpassed the Skyair Palace, Scarlet Origin Palace, Dragonsaddle Palace and Gengmetal Palace.
This meant that the number of subordinates who wanted to rebel was actually more and stronger compared to those who supported the Realmlord. Now that this shocking scene had occurred, everyone in the crowd was completely stunned. All of them stared up at the platforms from the ground.
At this moment, those who were waiting to see Qin Wentian make a fool out of himself, feeling that he was courting death, were now completely stupefied. Some felt that they weren’t able to see the situation clearly. Why was this happening?
Before this, all of them thought Qin Wentian was here to send himself to death. But in the blink of an eye, there was actually so many people willing to support Qin Wentian. This caused those who mocked Ye Qianyu earlier to all be stunned and their hearts were filled with regret. If today, the Lifelong Realmlord was really replaced by Qin Wentian, they knew very well what their consequences would be. They silently cursed themselves for being stupid, following the crowd. The Lifelong Realmlord wouldn’t look upon them highly for that and yet, they have offended Qin Wentian immensely.
Those monarchs and governors from the Lifire Palace who stepped out and went over to the other side because of a single sentence from the Lifelong Realmlord, were all completely stunned too. What situation was this? There were actually three other world palaces supporting Qin Wentian. This was simply too crazy.
This scene caused them to feel that it was somewhat similar to the scene which happened in the Lifire Palace back then. If the same incidents that occurred then repeated in the Lifelong Realm now, what would their ending be like?
When they thought of this, their hearts began to fill with terror and panic. They were praying that the Lifelong Realmlord was able to kill Qin Wentian. If not, their own situations would be extremely dire.
“Very good.” The Lifelong Realmlord’s expression grew heavy. Four world palace lords including a peak power, the Jialan Clan had actually chosen to rebel. Out of the four palaces, the Xuanyuan Palace Lord actually chose to rebel too, this was truly unexpected.
Such power can be considered extremely immense. Also, the various palace lords stood out to say that his character was extremely despicable. This made the Lifelong Realmlord understand that his reputation was tarnished completely. It was impossible to cleanse it no matter what he did.
“This seat has always treated all of you very well. What conditions did he promise you exactly to make you guys betray me? Since this is the case, I will grant you your wishes. For all who participates in the rebellion today, the assets of their clan and other businesses under them shall all be confiscated. All of them shall be heavily punished. Since they dare to betray this seat, they best be prepared to pay the price.”
The Lifelong Realmlord coldly spoke. He stood up from his throne and in an instant, an extremely terrifying power enveloped this entire space. This was the power of a world heart, a heart’s domain. Everyone instantly felt that they were shifted into a special dimension. It was as though they could personally feel the Lifelong Realmlord’s anger. A terrifying fire burn in their hearts.
“It has been so long since we last met. Lifelong, you are still the same as ever, you are unable to control your expression once you are angered.” At this moment, a voice suddenly drifted over. The expression of the Lifelong Realmlord stiffened as he stared into the horizons. At this moment, his eyes became extremely sharp as he spoke. “So, an old friend has arrived. I was wondering why they would have such courage to rebel. So it was you controlling everything from the shadows. Do you want to seize my Lifelong Realm?”
“I’m not as infatuated with power as you might be. You should be the most clear about this. I’ve also never interfered before in the matters today. It’s just that I know about it. My disciples reported this incident to me, hence I rushed here to take a look.” The voice originated from the void. Countless people stared into the distance, exactly who was it who had arrived? This person actually could speak to the Lifelong Realmlord on equal grounds.
From the void, a figure slowly materialized. This man was dressed in simple robes and looked middle-aged. His entire person exuded an imposing air.
“We pay our respects to master.” The two palace lords of the Gemini Palace greeted. At this moment, quite a number of people already knew of this newcomer’s identity.
Yi, an expert at the world overlord realm. He was the Lifelong Realmlord’s friend those years ago.
“Ancient Emperor Yi.” Qin Wentian silently mused as he stared at the figure in the air. Although Yi had the appearance of a middle-aged man, he was still extremely good-looking and projected a heroic aura. When he was younger, Yi must have definitely been extremely handsome.
“Junior Qin Wentian pays my respects to Senior Yi.” Qin Wentian bowed low. His karma with Yi had began since a very long time ago. Right now, he finally met this legendary character, an ancient emperor existence back then, whose legends were being circulated around by people of the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms.
Yi cast a glance at Qin Wentian. His eyes that were like the starry skies, flashed with unmasked admiration. “Qin Wentian.”
“Senior knows of me?” Qin Wentian spoke.
“Mhm, I already know of your story. The young are truly fearsome indeed, you are much more outstanding than me.” Yi laughed. From a certain perspective, this young man before his eyes was considered half his successor. He obtained his inheritance and became the saint lord of this generation, mastering God’s Hand.
“Senior praises me too much. Maybe senior doesn’t understand junior that well but ever since I cultivated the secret art in the City of Ancient Emperors, the two of us were already bound by unbreakable karma. I would often hear the stories about senior and now, I’ve finally met senior.” Qin Wentian smiled. This kind of feeling felt very wondrous. World Overlord Yi used to be a character that only existed in stories for him, but now, he had actually appeared before his eyes. Most probably, many people in Azure Mystic would feel the same if they saw Yi now.
“Are you very disappointed?” Yi laughed.
“Naturally not. It’s my fortune to be able to witness Senior’s glory.” Qin Wentian sincerely spoke.
“Haha, right now you’ve already comprehended a heavenheart mandate and you will soon be at the same cultivation realm as me. There’s no need to be so humble.” Yi smiled at Qin Wentian. When the Lifelong Realmlord heard their conversation, he only knew now that Qin Wentian basically wasn’t Yi’s disciple. This was the first time the two of them met.
In that case, everything he thought of before was merely his own imagination.
“Yi, since you don’t really know about the things here. What do you plan to do now that you have returned?” At this moment, the Lifelong Realmlord spoke, disrupting their conversation. If Yi wanted to deal with him, things would be extremely troublesome. Qin Wentian was an expert who had comprehended a heavenheart mandate. As long as Yi tangles with him, no one under him would be able to block Qin Wentian.
Countless people were stunned. The situation instantly changed. A world overlord expert had appeared and this world overlord had a very good relationship with Qin Wentian and was also the master of the Gemini Palace Lords.
If he interferes, who says that it was impossible to pull the Lifelong Realmlord down from his position today?
Yi glanced at the Lifelong Realmlord before turning back to Qin Wentian, “What are you planning to do?”
“Since senior has arrived, please help me to act as a witness.” Qin Wentian spoke. “I originally am the Lifire Palace Lord under the Lifelong Realmlord. However, he went too overboard in bullying. For me to obtain this palace lord’s position, he actually threatened my good friend Youhuang to be his concubine. And now, he even publicly humiliated my woman Ye Qianyu. This matter today is very easy to resolve. The Lifelong Realmlord just needs to apologize in public to Beiming Youhuang and get the two fairies by his side to dance for the admiration of the crowd. After that, he should step down from this position and leave the Lifelong Realm. If he is willing to do all this, I can let bygones be bygones.”
Qin Wentian’s words caused everyone to be stunned. How could the Lifelong Realmlord agree to such conditions?
The lips of the Lifelong Realmlord curled up in a mocking manner. He coldly spoke, “You instigated my subordinates to rebel. Today, even if Yi wants to protect you, I will kill you for sure.”
“In that case, this means that the conflict is unable to be resolved” Yi spoke.
“Since this is the case, I can only ask the Lifelong Realmlord to provide me with some guidance. Senior, please help me control the situation to prevent the Lifelong Realmlord from taking desperate actions, killing the innocent. I will also not participate in the slaughter of the experts from the Lifelong Sainthall. The other battles shall be handed to our subordinates to handle. I’ll challenge the Lifelong Realmlord alone.” Qin Wentian formally issued a challenge just when many people thought that Qin Wentian’s backer was Yi and he would join forces with Yi against the Lifelong Realmlord.
Qin Wentian wanted to challenge the Lifelong Realmlord alone.
Indeed, given experts on their level, if they really acted against those of lower cultivation realms, that would be a pure slaughter. However, Qin Wentian also wasn’t afraid. Even if Yi didn’t come here today, the family and harem of the Lifelong Realmlord were still in the Lifelong Sainthall. He had so many descendants here, how could the Lifelong Realmlord himself not be worried?
Unless, he killed Qin Wentian before this. If not, once Qin Wentian revealed enough strength to threaten him, how would the Lifelong Realmlord dare to act recklessly?
Naturally, since Yi has came. It would be for the best if he acted as a witness.
“You, challenge me?” The Lifelong Realmlord stared at Qin Wentian. “You should have obtained some good fortune in Ancient Azure Mystic, right? After entering this realm, you are so eager to test your strength? Since this is the case, I’ll let you know the price of arrogance.”
“Once, the previous Lifire Palace Lord acted in the same manner as you, filled with boundless arrogance. However now, he has already been dead for many years.” Qin Wentian calmly replied.
“Haha, you actually compared this seat with the previous Lifire Palace Lord.” The Lifelong Realmlord laughed loudly. His figure flashed, directly shooting up into the sky. In an instant, bright light radiated forth, illuminating the entire space. A gigantic ancient tree appeared, so large that it could blot out the sun, the moon, the sky and the stars completely.
The Lifelong Realmlord had the word ‘Lifelong’ in his title. His world heart, was the Lifelong world heart.
“Be careful. The Lifelong Realmlord has comprehended a total of two Heavenheart Mandates.” Yi transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian nodded slightly in response. His figure flashed like lightning, directly flying up into the air.
“Those below listen to my orders. Annihilate these rebels completely. After this battle, I’ll heavily reward those who manage to achieve meritorious deeds. I can consider them for the positions of world palace lords for the five world palaces.” The voice of the Lifelong Realmlord thundered through the air.
Four great world palaces rebelled, the Kanwater Palace Lord has fallen. There would soon be a vacancy of five palace lords.
A single sentence by the Lifelong Realmlord caused many major powers to feel their hearts stirring. An empyrean from the Sword Spirit Sect coldly roared, “My Sword Spirit Sect is willing to fight for Realmlord. Who is willing to fight together with my sect to exterminate these rebels?”
To the Sword Spirit Sect, they didn’t have any choice. They had to support the Lifelong Realmlord!
