Chapter 1808: Fooling the World
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
As Qin Wentian’s words rang out, the entire space turned silent.
He said, can the Ziwei Divine Court be so sure that the words spoken by the Time King were referring to Yue Changkong?
What did he mean?
Everyone remembered that back then in the Time Realm when Qin Wentian fought with Yue Changkong, he said something similar. Qin Wentian once said, ‘Yue Changkong said that he received the inheritance of the Time King and all of you believe him? What if I said I was the one who obtained the Time King’s inheritance?’
At that time, everyone thought that Qin Wentian was a joke. Feeling that Qin Wentian was intentionally slandering Yue Changkong before fighting with him. But in reality, when Qin Wentian said these words back then, he said them extremely casually.
And today, Qin Wentian actually said such a thing and he was speaking to a major character of the Ziwei Divine Court.
But right now, who could disregard Qin Wentian’s words?
Just earlier, Qin Wentian killed the Dragon Pool Manor Lord, a hegemonic-level world overlord character. Also, the ability he used was none other than time stop from the time laws. It was so powerful that the Dragon Pool Manor Lord couldn’t break free from it, how strong was it exactly?
The major character of the Ziwei Divine Court that was Yue Changkong’s martial uncle, his heart actually trembled when he heard Qin Wentian’s words. His eyes gleamed with a terrifying light as he stared at Qin Wentian.
As for those from the Donghuang Clan, their hearts trembled even more violently. This was especially so for Donghuang Ying. Her expressions drastically changed.
“Impossible, this is impossible.” Donghuang Ying shouted in her heart. She didn’t believe in Qin Wentian’s words. Or more accurately, she was hinting herself not to believe in Qin Wentian’s words.
That old man from the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy smiled. Ten Miles Springwind and the others all froze there, staring with shock at Qin Wentian. After that, Ten Miles Springwind, Cao Tian and the rest all exchanged glances only to see shock in the eyes of everyone. After that, their expressions all became extremely fascinating to behold.
If the truth was really what they thought it was, wouldn’t this be extremely interesting?
The faces of the Ziwei Divine Court and Donghuang Clan, wouldn’t they be smacked completely swollen?
Yue Changkong narrowed his eyes, his expression instantly changed but it soon reverted back to calmness, like nothing had happened. He stared at Qin Wentian as though the matter Qin Wentian was speaking about had nothing to do with him. However, killing intent was rising in his heart. Why did he want to borrow the hand of the Dragon Pool Manor to kill Qin Wentian? It was precisely because he was afraid the matters today would be exposed. However, the Dragon Pool Manor was too useless and actually failed and they also betrayed him, further enraging Qin Wentian.
“What do you mean by that?” The major character from the Ziwei Divine Court coldly asked, staring at Qin Wentian.
“Senior, you can draw your own understanding from my words. I’m merely reminding senior. Back then, who knows who the Time King was speaking to? Yue Changkong said that the voice came from the future, I say that the voice came from the past, but so what? Who can be certain?” Qin Wentian smiled, his eyes gleaming with coldness. He initially wanted this fake to help divert some attention. If Yue Changkong didn’t antagonize him repeatedly, he initially wouldn’t even care about this.
But Yue Changkong kept challenging the limits of his endurance. Since that was the case, if the matter of him lying to the Ziwei Divine Court, Donghuang Clan and the entire world was exposed, what would his ending be?
Since the Ziwei Divine Court wanted to protect Yue Changkong, that was fine, he wouldn’t make any moves against Yue Changkong then. He wanted to see what are the next steps the Ziwei Divine Court and Donghuang Clan would take.
“Back then I already felt it was strange why Yue Changkong kept deliberately targeting Qin Wentian. Now that the matter of him instigating the Dragon Pool Manor to assassinate Qin Wentian has been revealed, this is truly thought-provoking.” Ten Miles Springwind laughed. His casual words instantly linked many clues together. If one were to think in that direction, it was very easy to understand many things.
“Clap, clap…” Crisp sounds of clapping rang out. The gazes of the crowd froze and stared towards the sound. It was actually Yue Changkong clapping his hands. That handsome face of his had a faint smile on it, like he was extremely carefree. He calmly spoke, “Brother Qin, what a good method. I once fought against Brother Qin and I know that I’m not Brother Qin’s match currently. To think that with regards to schemes, Brother Qin is actually so much more superior than me? This method of yours truly can kill someone without needing to see blood.”
“I said it before, don’t you refer to me as ‘Brother Qin.’ Don’t you feel that you are disgusting?” Qin Wentian coldly spoke. For someone who wanted his death so badly, this Yue Changkong still kept addressing him as Brother Qin. This made him feel extremely uncomfortable.
“Still being able to call out the words ‘Brother Qin’ at this moment? Clearly this Yue Changkong is an extremely scheming individual. Or to better put it, he is an extremely shameless individual.” Cao Tian calmly spoke. “Wentian, the words you had spoken in the past were true indeed. This man is too much of a hypocrite. For someone of his character, I wonder what methods he used to mask the truth from the Ziwei Divine Court and managed to sneak in as a disciple.”
At this moment, more and more people believed in Qin Wentian’s words. If Yue Changkong was innocent, shouldn’t he be in a towering rage seeing that Qin Wentian was slandering him? Yet, he was still able to smile and address Qin Wentian as ‘Brother Qin’? It wasn’t wrong to say that Yue Changkong was extremely scheming.
Could it be that the publicly acclaimed supreme dazzling genius of the convention, Yue Changkong, was actually a shameless scumbag liar that sought to achieve his aims by underhanded means?
If this was the case, wouldn’t things be very comical?
Not only did he fool all the world overlords in the convention, he even fooled the Donghuang Clan, the Ziwei Divine Court, and his new master that was a lofty heavenly deity.
However, it can’t be said that everyone in the Time Realm were fools. After the Time King left the message, no one stood out to admit it save for Yue Changkong. In addition, he was someone that was already proficient in time-attribute energy. When he spoke about the Time Monument Inscriptions, his words sounded extremely logical. With him standing out to say that he was the successor, who would doubt him?
No one would feel that he was a fake.
At this moment, Yue Changkong was forcibly enduring his anger. He hated Qin Wentian so much that he wanted nothing more than to tear him into pieces. But even so, he still maintained the smile on his face. “From Brother Qin’s meaning, you are hinting that the Time King’s true successor is you? Since this is the case, why doesn’t Brother Qin display what inheritance you obtained from the Time King to everyone here?”
“I’ve nothing more to add. I just want to casually remind all the seniors in the Ziwei Divine Court. Senior, if you don’t care about this, just feel free to ignore my earlier words.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. The more he acted like this, the more people felt that his words were true.
Unless Yue Changkong could use time-attributed energy to defeat Qin Wentian. If not, regardless of the Ziwei Divine Court or Donghuang Clan, their suspicions of him would never diminish.
But was it even possible for him to use time-attributed energy to defeat Qin Wentian? Qin Wentian has killed the Dragon Pool Manor Lord, a hegemonic-level world overlord by using time-attributed energy after all.
Yue Changkong didn’t even dare to accept the challenge.
Donghuang Ying’s beautiful gaze kept flickering. She clenched her fists and bit lightly on her lips. Finally, she couldn’t bear it anymore and transmitted her voice to Qin Wentian, “Qin Wentian, are you really the one that obtained the Time King’s inheritance?”
Qin Wentian’s gaze turned over, looking at Donghuang Ying. If it was said that he had really treated Donghuang Ying as a friend back then, now, after so many things had happened, he no longer felt any goodwill towards Donghuang Ying. In fact, he even felt a hint of loathing towards her. This woman was too in love with power. When she became friends with him, she wasn’t even acquainted with Yue Changkong yet.
But after Yue Changkong publicly proclaimed that he was Time King’s successor and revealed interest towards her, her attitude towards Yue Changkong and him had instantly changed. If he had no conflicts with Yue Changkong, everything would be fine. But once there was a conflict, she would not hesitate to trust Yue Changkong completely and would even go to the extent of forsaking their friendship, mocking and ridiculing him.
In fact, Donghuang Ying and the Ziwei Divine Court had both spoken out to stop the Luoshen Clan from helping him. She was the same as those from the Donghuang Clan, watching with glee as he challenged the Dragon Pool Manor Lord alone earlier. Most probably, she was like Yue Changkong and couldn’t wait to see him getting defeated and killed by the Dragon Pool manor Lord.
To such a woman, Qin Wentian truly found it very difficult to feel any goodwill. He only felt disgust.
“Little princess, if you have something to say, you can just say it directly. Why is there a need to send me a voice transmission? I heard that Yue Changkong is now the ideal son-in-law for the Donghuang Clan and has a marriage agreement with little princess. Others can doubt him, but as his fiancee, why do you need to doubt him now when you already trusted him so much before you even had a marriage agreement with him? Shouldn’t you trust him as much as you did before?”
Qin Wentian calmly spoke, his tone was filled with a slight mockery. Donghuang Ying recalled Qin Wentian’s warning to her, that Yue Changkong’s character had problems. At that time, Qin Wentian was already hinting to her that Yue Changkong might not be the perfect gentleman everyone thought he was. However, she felt that it was because Qin Wentian was jealous of Yue Changkong, which was why he said that. But, what about now?
He has already defeated Yue Changkong before and now, Qin Wentian could even kill a hegemonic-level world overlord. Is there a need for him to be jealous of Yue Changkong? Why did he say that Yue Changkong’s character had a problem back then?
Yue Changkong’s expressions involuntarily changed when he heard Qin Wentian’s words. His gaze turned cold. Donghuang Ying actually transmitted her voice in secret to Qin Wentian and was doubting him? Even his fiancee was doubting him, in that case, what would other people feel when they hear this?
As expected, there were countless gazes staring at him at Donghuang Ying at this moment. Even Yue Changkong’s woman didn’t trust him?
Seems like this Yue Changkong truly had lied to many people. In addition, he even lied about obtaining the recognition of the Godking of Time and it resulted in him being accepted as a disciple by a heavenly deity because of that. Yue Changkong was truly audacious enough.
“Have you spoken enough?” The major character from the Ziwei Divine Court spoke coldly, staring at Qin Wentian. “Slandering a disciple of the Ziwei Divine Court, aren’t you a little too brazen? Today, I will give the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy some face and not make things difficult for you. But if you speak such nonsense again in the future, don’t blame me for not being polite.”
“The matters today concludes now. Since Yue Changkong has already gained the recognition of my senior brother, there’s no need to doubt that he has really received the godking’s inheritance. Rather than spending time here being mired in a private grudge, why not use the time to cultivate instead?” That major character from the Ziwei Divine Court coldly spoke. After that, he glanced at Yue Changkong, “Changkong, follow me back to the Divine Court.”
Yue Changkong’s body trembled. He then nodded and shot a venomous gaze at Qin Wentian. After that, the two of them directly left.
At this moment, everyone understood what this meant.
The denial of the major character from the Ziwei Divine Court at the end was simply to protect the face and prestige of the Ziwei Divine Court. After that, everything was clear seeing how quickly he brought Yue Changkong away. This time when Yue Changkong returned to the Ziwei Divine Court, what sort of interrogation would he be put under?
His ending would surely be extremely miserable.
Today, the Ziwei Divine Court tried every possible way to obstruct Qin Wentian’s revenge. However, a single sentence from Qin Wentian was already sufficient to cause the Ziwei Divine Court to be embarrassed.
Donghuang Ying stared at Yue Changkong who was being brought away by his martial uncle. Her body suddenly trembled violently as her expression turned ashen.
Her chastity already belonged to Yue Changkong!
Her prince charming was actually a supreme liar that fooled the entire world? In that case, what did everything before count for?
