Chapter 1315: Fetching Bai Qing
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
As the sound of that voice faded, the entire Devil Mountain was in shock.
The Grand Priest of the Judiciary Hall and devil lord of the Darkness Hall was both here. Since this ethereal voice from the void could make them apologize, one could tell that the status of the owner of this voice was higher compared to them.
For people with statuses higher compared to the Grand Priest and Darkness Devil Lord, there's only a few on the Devil Mountain. It might even be a hegemon-level character who was the master of one of the supreme halls.
Such a character actually gave the order, telling the Devil Mountain not to make things difficult for Qin Wentian. He was able to cultivate in whichever of the supreme devil halls he chose and could even leave the Devil Mountain with no obstructions. Such a special privilege made it so that his status already exceeded the male judiciary priest and a Child of Darkness. Even if he obtained an inheritance in the Saint Devil Hall, he shouldn't have such preferential treatment, right?
Unless... the inheritance Qin Wentian obtained had some connection with the Myriad Devil Sovereign.
When the people thought of this, their hearts were all shuddering from shock, deeply glancing at Qin Wentian. Even the Grand Priest was staring deeply at him, with looks of complications on his face.
"As for the conflict between both your sides, since you all are still on the Devil Mountain, you still have to comply with our rules. Once you get down the mountain, you all can do whatever you want, the Devil Mountain will not interfere again." That voice rang out once more. Clearly, the speaker was referring to the conflict between Qin Wentian and Huang Shatian. Qin Wentian's eyes flickered, he glanced at Huang Shatian before he nodded his head lightly.
Since a hegemon-level character from the Devil Mountain already went so far as to say such words, he naturally wouldn't force anything. Before this he had already made preparations for the worst. But the words spoken by this hegemon-level character had actually resolved many of the dangers he feared.
In this case, the Devil Mountain would no longer restrict him.
"Junior will naturally heed senior's words." Qin Wentian politely replied.
"Everyone disperse from the area. Do not disturb the peace of this sacred location any further." That voice contained a hint of imposingness as an intense wind gusted as he spoke. A hegemon-level character settled everything with just a sentence. This was the status granted by power.
"Huang Shatian, you leave with us." The Grand Priest stared at Huang Shatian as he spoke. Before this, they already accomplished what Huang Shatian wanted them to do, they even offended Qin Wentian for him. It was still fine if they did so back then but from now on, Qin Wentian's status was already different, and that hegemon-level character was already paying attention to this.
Since this was the case, there was no way the Devil Mountain would touch Qin Wentian again.
Huang Shatian calmly nodded his head. There was no expression on his face, since he promised something, he wouldn't go against it.
Casting a deep glance at Qin Wentian, Huang Shatian turned and left. Faint hints of disappointment could still be sensed from him, but as he walked away, that disappointment transformed into determination. He still had a chance. As long as he could break through to the immortal king realm first, he wouldn't have been considered to have lost.
Huang Shatian left, but the experts from his alliance all had complex expressions. Qin Wentian coldly stared at them and spoke to his allies, "There are still a few years worth of time. We should cultivate well and head back to the Fallen Devil Region together when the time comes."
"Right." His allies nodded. Right now Qin Wentian can already suppressed Huang Shatian. They were all more confident with regards to the adjudication battle.
"Brother Qin, as expected, you are a genius on the same level as me. You can even reverse such a situation. Awesome." Bujie walked up, praising Qin Wentian. He naturally didn't forget to praise himself as well.
Qin Wentian glared at him, "In the next few years I will still cultivate on the Devil Mountain. At that time, I will be heading to the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall as well."
"Sure, just come anytime you want. I will protect you." Bujie patted his chest and guaranteed.
"Mhm, I will head over to the Judiciary Hall first." Qin Wentian spoke. The sentence of three years hasn't ended yet. Bai Qing should still be in the Blood Devil Cliff. He naturally wanted to go over.
With a flash, Qin Wentian departed, directly speeding towards the Judiciary Devil Hall.
The Judiciary Devil Hall was incomparably imposing. The area within was extremely vast and there were many figures within clad in blood-colored robes, exuding a solemn killing intent.
"Junior Qin Wentian came by for a visit at the Judiciary Devil Hall."
Qin Wentian spoke. Within the hall, an expert walked out. This man was clad in priest robes, and had a cultivation base at the devil king realm.
This priest walked towards Qin Wentian. After that command, Qin Wentian was given access to all the supreme devil halls. He naturally had access to the Judiciary Devil Hall as well.
"Brother Qin, I wonder do you need any help since you came all the way here?" The judiciary priest asked.
"I want to make a trip to the Blood Devil Hall." Qin Wentian directly replied.
"Sure." That priest nodded. "Please come with me."
As he spoke, he turned and led the way. Qin Wentian followed after him, entering the depths of the judiciary hall. Just as he expected, there was another dimension within the judiciary hall. After passing through the void gate at the entrance of the hall, they entered an extremely vast area. This place resembled a city more than a hall.
As one of the seven supreme devil halls at the peak, and having been around for such a long time, how many experts would this hall have?
The vast space before his eyes was the true Judiciary Devil Hall.
"Over here." That priest was extremely polite. Qin Wentian guessed that this may have something to do with that ethereal voice. The status of that man must definitely be extremely terrifying to the extent whereby even a judiciary devil king was so polite towards him.
"Priestess Bai Qing might be imprisoned for three years, but in reality, the Blood Devil Cliff is a place where the priests of our hall would head over to cultivate. They can use the atmosphere there to raise their own strength. Not only for the priests, even ordinary disciples would be given the chance to do so." The devil king priest slowly explained. He brought Qin Wentian to a place which was heavily guarded. Before this place, a huge mountain could be seen, as well as another void gate.
"This place is the Blood Devil Cliff. Let me enter with you." The devil king priest spoke. Qin Wentian nodded his head as both of them stepped out, entering the void gate.
At the next moment, Qin Wentian came to a place where the atmosphere was saturated with devil might. The devil might here felt extremely irritable, as though out of control, on the brink of eruption. It also radiated a sense of evil.
This place was a tattered looking city. In this desolate city, there seemed to be no boundaries. From afar, a wave of fearsome devil might gushed over as a devil cultivator with disheveled hair, radiating a bloodthirsty aura appeared.
Qin Wentian frowned. He could sense that this devil cultivator wasn't normal.
"What sort of place is the Blood Devil Cliff exactly?" Qin Wentian asked.
"There are some devil cultivators who lost their sanity, as well as some devil experts who broke the laws and received judgement from us. These people are all locked up in here." The devil king priest spoke. His devil sense then swept out and enveloped this entire space.
"That means that in this place, many are madmen. As for those ordinary people, they are imprisoned here by the priests after breaking some laws?" Qin Wentian's expression turned cold.
"You should be very clear what sort of place the judiciary hall is. We are in charge of judgement, there's naturally places of darkness here." The devil king priest calmly replied. Qin Wentian had nothing to reply. He knew what the other party said wasn't wrong.
But to think that that little lass Bai Qing was actually imprisoned in a place like this.
No wonder Bai Qing was so cold in front of others, like an emotionless devil cultivator. Because, as a priestess of the judiciary hall, she had experienced too much over the years.
"Quickly search for her." Qin Wentian spoke. That devil-cultivator who radiated a bloodthirsty aura actually lunged towards them. Qin Wentian lifted his hand and blasted out with God's Hand, directly obliterating him.
The devil king priest continued leading the way and they encountered many evil cultivators on their way. They either ignored them or killed them directly.
"I found her." At this moment, the priest suddenly spoke and turned to a direction. Over there, Bai Qing was clad in white. Her hair was disheveled as well and there were traces of blood on her white robes. Her beautiful face was pale but her expression as cold as ice.
It was as though she suddenly sensed something. She instantly turned and fled madly for her life.
"Bai Qing, it's me." A voice rang out. Bai Qing halted and frowned. A devil king priest? What was he doing here?
An instant later, two figures appeared. When Bai Qing saw Qin Wentian who was beside the priest, the coldness on her face instantly evaporated. She was somewhat in a panic as she hurriedly moved her hands about, tidying her hair and robes.
"Little lass Qing." Qin Wentian flashed, appearing before her, pulling her into an embrace. He patted her on her shoulder, "Are you alright?"
Bai Qing blinked, as though she was struck dumb. She didn't even react when she heard Qin Wentian's words. Only after Qin Wentian released his grab did a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. A radiant smile suddenly bloomed on her pale face. She nodded to reassure him, "Wentian gege, I'm fine."
The devil king priest who was standing at the side had a strange expression on his face when he saw this. He was acquainted with Bai Qing for many years. Did the icy beauty have such a side to her? Right now, Bai Qing was like a young and innocent girl. She didn't resemble the icy priestess of the judiciary hall at all.
"Since everything is fine, I will be making a move first. Priestess Bai Qing knows how to exit. This area contains all the criminals who are at the devil-foundation realm. Brother Qin should be sufficient to deal with them." The devil king priest spoke, tactfully preparing to leave.
"When can she exit this place?" Qin Wentian asked.
"If Brother Qin wishes to bring Priestess Bai out, since her time remaining to the end of her sentence is short, I believe the Grand Priest wouldn't say anything in objection." After speaking, the devil king left directly. Bai Qing stared at the silhouette of the leaving devil king before turning back to Qin Wentian. She still had no clue what was going on. How did Qin Wentian even manage to enter this place?
