Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 1677: Return

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

These people all had immortal emperor-level cultivations. Among them, there were monarchs and governors. The others were all vice governors and attendants of his Lifire Palace. Usually when they saw Qin Wentian, they only needed to bow to show their respect. They didn’t need to kneel.

However, the new palace lord Qin Wentian was famous for using tyrannical iron-blooded methods. He slayed the previous palace lord and now, he could decide the fate of anyone in the Lifire Palace with a single sentence. Also, right now when they saw Qin Wentian’s attitude, how could they still fail to understand the importance these two beauties had in Qin Wentian’s heart. Since Qin Wentian brought them all the way here, they definitely had to use this opportunity and perform well, obtaining the trust of this new palace lord.

These immortal emperors were all lined up in a straight row neatly. There were even quite a few peak-stage immortal emperors among them. All of them knelt with a single knee and bowed to the two maidens.

Who were these two maidens?

Given how Qin Wentian had introduced them, there was naturally no doubt that the ‘madams’ they were referring too, were none other than Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng.

In the dead silence of the air, the gazes of everyone all turned to the row of kneeling immortal emperors as great waves of terror rocked their hearts.

He has returned, and he was truly alive. Not only that, he even brought a group of immortal emperors back with him.

“Surround them.” Qin Wentian didn’t even bother to glance at the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and the others in the air. At the moment he returned to Azure Mystic, the fates of these people were already decided.

“Yes, Palace Lord.” His subordinates bowed their heads. After that, their silhouettes flashed, instantly locking down on this entire space.

The Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and the others stood in the air. To battle now was foolish, but to retreat now also seemed impossible. Their expressions were all incomparably unsightly. When they felt how strong the auras of these immortal emperors surrounding them were, all of them didn’t know what to do.

Qin Wentian cast a glance at the ruined areas of the Evergreen Immortal Empire as he shook his head. The once glorious imperial palace of the Evergreen Immortal Empire was damaged to such an extent today. It was tough to imagine what sort of great battles occurred here, and to think that the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was actually injured.

When he thought of everything Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng had to endure through all these years, he felt an indescribable emotion in his heart. He could only tightly hold onto their hands and gently spoke, “It’s alright, everything is fine now. With me here, everything has ended.”

“Mhm.” Qing`er nodded. Her silvery white hair was still the same but that supreme goddess of killing had already vanished. At this moment, she was like a gentle little woman who was tightly holding onto Qin Wentian’s hand. It felt like she wanted to stick as closely to him as possible. Mo Qingcheng smiled sweetly, both her hands were hugging around Qin Wentian’s arm. Those dark and beautiful eyes of hers stared unblinkingly at Qin Wentian, as though she didn’t get to see enough of him.

Staring at his beloved wives before him, the smile in Qin Wentian’s eyes gradually turned into one of relaxment, gentleness, and became radiant. He finally made it back. The scenario he was most afraid of didn’t occur, but that scene earlier had truly scared him. Qing`er actually became the White-Hair Goddess of Killing and was fighting against two powerful immortal emperors. Her gaze was so cold, like she had became another person entirely. It was completely impossible for him to imagine what she had gone through all these years.

“Senior Matriarch Ji.” Qin Wentian saw Matriarch Ji and her disciples walking over as he smiled at them and greeted. Although his cultivation base had long surpassed Matriarch Ji’s, he still respectfully referred to her as senior. This was none other than Qing`er’s master and she had chosen to stand by Qing`er even at the very last moment, fighting side-by-side together.

“I still thought that you...” Matriarch Ji also smiled. At the instant she saw those immortal emperors kneeling to Qin Wentian, she already knew that everything here was concluded. The once unexcelled youth of this world, the supreme genius who slayed three immortal emperors when he was still at the immortal king realm...He has truly returned, and did so in such a resplendent manner. He was like the lofty sovereign of all things, even immortal emperors had to kneel to pay their respect. In that case, one could very well imagine how strong Qin Wentian was now.

Right now, Matriarch Ji basically couldn’t see through Qin Wentian.

“Did you think that I was already dead?” Qin Wentian smiled. Matriarch Ji and her disciples all laughed. When they saw the smile in their junior apprentice sister Qing`er’s eyes, all of them felt a sense of release and happiness.

The next lifetime was too far away, I only seek to cherish our present.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor was also smiling.

Qin Wentian came back in such a dazzling manner, kissing the daughter he doted on the most, while a group of immortal emperors knelt to him.

A legend was ultimately still a legend. But this legend seemed to have become much stronger compared to the past. Most probably, the skies here could no longer contain him.

“Wentian will deeply remember the gratitude of Senior and all the fairies for taking care of Qing`er.” Qin Wentian sincerely spoke. Although Matriarch Ji and her disciples didn’t want anything in return, it was impossible for him not to repay this kindness. Because, the person they were giving their lives to protect, was not only the princess of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, and was not only their junior apprentice sister or disciple but was also the wife of him, Qin Wentian, as well.

Qin Wentian held the hands of Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng as he walked forward, entering the emperor palace. The weakened Evergreen Immortal Emperor was smiling at him, his eyes finally regaining some luster. Finally, he had returned.

“Earlier, I was still saying that you would have let me down if something happened to Qing`er. Luckily, I was wrong.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor laughed. Everything was in time after all, life could be this wonderful some times. During times of extreme despair, a ray of light that represented hope, had appeared.

“Great Emperor.” Qin Wentian greeted. After that, an incomparably pure burst of life energy enveloped the Evergreen Immortal Emperor’s body. The jade-green colored life energy caused by the corrosion effect of the injury the Evergreen Immortal Emperor had suffered to be gradually wiped out. After that, the life energy seeped into his body and coursed through it, circulating around, greatly boosting the Evergreen Immortal Emperor’s life force.

“Life-attribute laws?” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor felt his heart trembling. In the past, Qin Wentian didn’t cultivate the life laws. Could it be that he has broken through?

This should be impossible, right? It has not even been a full two hundred years, could he really have broken through to that level above immortal emperors? Back then when he was hunted down by so many major powers, his cultivation base was merely at the peak-stage of the immortal king realm, he wasn’t even an immortal emperor yet.

“Oh, I remember now. It must be his avatar.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor silently mused. He felt that Qin Wentian’s true self has already died. The person Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng have been waiting for, was none other than Qin Wentian’s avatar.

How would he know that the Qin Wentian before his eyes, was none other than Qin Wentian’s true self?

Very swiftly, the injury which the Evergreen Immortal Emperor had received, began to recover. His grievous injury actually made a complete recovery, this was simply unfathomable, yet Qin Wentian managed to do so.

“Great Emperor, right now, your cultivation base is already at the peak-stage and you even have the ancient evergreen tree. Who could still injure you?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Old Devil Duo Tian, the Violet Emperor and Eastern Sage, you know them all.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor laughed as he spoke. Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. How familiar these names sounded. Back then on the Demon God Mountain, the Old Devil Duo Tian had tried to kill him, if it wasn’t for the Southern Phoenix Matriarch acting to save him, he would have already died. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had already completely submitted to Old Devil Duo Tian.

As for the Violet Emperor and Eastern Sage, Qin Wentian couldn’t be more familiar with them. The karma connecting them was just too deep.

“How should we deal with them?” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor glanced at the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperors and the others. Right now, these people were surrounded by Qin Wentian’s subordinates which consisted of many peak-stage immortal emperors. Such a force was more than sufficient to kill the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and his allies, yet Qin Wentian didn’t give the order despite a long time having passed, only telling his subordinates to surround them.

“Wait for them to call for reinforcements.” Qin Wentian calmly replied. His confident voice caused the Evergreen Immortal Emperor’s heart to tremble. Waiting for them to call for reinforcements? Qin Wentian was planning to capture all in one swoop? What confidence was this?

The Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperors and the others all had strands of immortal sense projection outside. Upon seeing that the people surrounding them didn’t act, their hearts were filled with turmoil. They didn’t dare to act as it was clear that they were the ones in the weaker position. Since those trapping them here wanted to delay, it was also the best for them.

It’s just that the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and the others had no way to tolerate Qin Wentian’s attitude. Ever since Qin Wentian appeared, he had not even spared a glance at them.

One has to know that they were the leaders of the peak powers here in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. The ruler of the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire, the Skymist Immortal Emperor, the Paragon Sword Emperor and the Taihua Dynasty Ruler. However Qin Wentian, who had became someone with the title of palace lord, didn’t even look at them at all. What level of contempt was this?

“Oh yes, the situation at the Southern Phoenix Clan should be extremely dire now as well since they were forced to fight in the war. We should hurry there to take a look.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor spoke.

“What’s going on?” Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. Both the Southern Phoenix Clan and the Evergreen Immortal Empire were attacked at the same time?

“The Ying Clan had warred with the Southern Phoenix Clan for already over a hundred years. Right now, their troops have occupied the Southern Phoenix Immortal City and today shall be the date of the decisive battle.” The Evergreen Immortal Emperor spoke. “The teleportation array leading to the Southern Phoenix Clan is still here. We can immediately head over.”

“Right.” Qin Wentian nodded. He held onto Qing`er and Qingcheng’s hands as he directly walked towards the direction of the teleportation array. “Just me going with Qing`er and Qingcheng is enough.”

The eyes of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor gleamed sharply. Qin Wentian wanted to head there alone with Qing`er and Qingcheng?

“Just listen to him.” The White Emperor spoke. Evergreen nodded. Since Qin Wentian dared to bring Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng along with him, one could very well imagine how confident he was.

After that, Qin Wentian and his wives entered the teleportation array leading to the Southern Phoenix Clan. Bright light flashed as their three figures directly vanished. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor himself also felt like going over. He wanted to see which level the current Qin Wentian has reached exactly.

As for the Nine-Emperors Immortal Emperor and the others, they still didn’t dare to move. They were now trapped here. The emperors from the Lifire Palace didn’t do anything to them without Qin Wentian’s order, merely surrounding them for now.

...

Just like what the Evergreen Immortal Emperor had said. The date of the decisive battle was today and the Southern Phoenix Clan was now in dire straits. The flames of war have enveloped the entire Southern Phoenix Clan completely.

At this moment, in the airspace above the Southern Phoenix Clan, the scene there was apocalyptic. Fresh blood splattered as screams of misery rent the air. A true dragon and a phoenix could be seen soaring through the skies, frenziedly battling against each other. The force of their blows were terrifying to the extreme.

The ancestral phoenix and Southern Phoenix Matriarch were doing their utmost, but in the entire perspective of the battlefield, the Southern Phoenix Clan was the one being suppressed. More and more holy maidens died, and the eyes of many maidens were filled with tears. When had their Southern Phoenix Clan been in such dire straits before? All of their kin were dying unceasingly on the battlefield.

The fierce battles made it so that no one noticed the teleportation array from the Evergreen Immortal Empire lighting up.

Right now, Nanfeng Yunxi was already a mid-stage immortal emperor. She was currently fighting against two other immortal emperors and as she saw one of her sisters being killed not far away from her, tears flowed uncontrollably down her face. At her moment of distraction, the manifestation of a fearsome dragon claw shot over, her body was even restricted by the other immortal emperor, making it so that she couldn’t move at all. At this distance, she could clearly see the malevolent smiles on the faces of her opponents.

However, in an instant, a beam of terrible light descended abruptly, brimming with a mighty sword intent. Slashing sounds rang out, the two immortal emperors fighting against her suddenly screamed as their bodies were torn to shreds.

Nanfeng Yunxi froze. Soon after that, a figure entered her vision. This figure was clad in white, so clean that there wasn’t a single speck of dust on him. His long hair fluttered in the wind and at this moment, Nanfeng Yunxi felt a sense of surrealism, as though she was dreaming.

Could it be that she was imagining things because she was about to die?
