Chapter 1341: Sorrowful
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Zhiyin, Wan Zhuqing, both were people despised by their own Wan Clan. In fact, Wan Qingshan had tried to sacrifice Zhiyin multiple times to please Mu Qiu.
Princess Nongyue was someone they could never match up to. But now, Princess Nongyue actually said to Zhiyin and Wan Zhuqing that they were valued guests of her Darknorth Immortal Dynasty.
Such an opportunity could at first be given to the entire Wan Clan. However, because of their attitude towards Qin Wentian, they all lost the chance. In fact, they even became Qin Wentian's enemy.
"What about them?" Beiming Nongyue glanced over to the rest of the Wan Clan.
"Not really familiar with them. However, these strangers repeatedly insulted me. I still have not accounted the debt with them." Qin Wentian spoke in a light voice, his words causing the Wan Clan to turn pale.
After that, Qin wentian stared at Wan Qingshan. "Initially, I couldn't be bothered with your attitude. But over here, you tried to sacrifice Zhiyin to curry favor with Mu Qiu, you used the word 'lowly' to insult me. Just based on these two points, you already deserve death."
Wan Qingshan's countenance was like dead ashes as despair rose up in his heart. He knew he wouldn't be able to live.
At the next instant, Wan Qingshan abruptly started laughing, in a very crazed manner. He crawled up and his appearance did seem like a mad man.
"I Wan Qingshan have eyes but am blind." Wan Qingshan mockingly laughed at himself. "Back when Zhuqing invited you into our clan, we initially had the chance to befriend you. But because of Yiyao's wilfulness, Miaoyan's arrogance, and our pitiful false pride, we ignored and even insulted you. After coming to the royal capital, our arrogant Wan Clan became civil, clad in humility, not daring to offend anyone. We treated people like Duanmu Xiu as legendary characters but what's laughable is that people like him simply weren't even worth a mention before your eyes. How ridiculous, how pitiful."
Wan Zhuqing felt sorrow in his heart as he stared at his second brother. Truly pitiful indeed, who would have thought that right in their Wan Clan, there already was a legendary character who could cause Duanmu Xiu to kneel down.
"Yiyao, Miaoyan, both of you kneel down." Wan Qingshan suddenly spoke. Wan Miaoyan and Wan Yiyao froze. They had to kneel?
Wan Yiyao glanced at Qin Wentian, great waves of shock rose up in her heart at this moment. If it wasn't for her willfulness, telling Qin Wentian to go and tame Redwing,purposely kept making things difficult for him and even insulted him, would the ending today be different?
When Qin Wentian spoke, he was incomparably calm, no matter who he was speaking to. She didn't like that expression and thought that Qin Wentian was pretending to act cool so as to elevate himself. However, how wrong was she?
She cast another glance at Beiming Nongyue who was beside Qin Wentian. This magnificence princess was a lofty character who stood on the clouds. Right now, she was standing beside Qin Wentian just like an old friend.
"Father, I know you want to save me. However, since we are already wrong, just let us continue to be wrong." Wan Miaoyan calmly spoke. She closed her eyes but she was feeling extremely complicated in her heart.
"However, I'm still extremely reluctant. This time, we came here to the royal capital for the sake of entering the immortal mountain, for the sake of breaking through to immortal king." Wan Miaoyan closed her eyes and sighed with despair. She then opened her eyes and glanced at Qin Wentian, "I want to challenge you. If you really depended on true strength to gain the favor of princess and saint child, even if you kill me, I won't complain."
"Miaoyan." Wan Qingshan shouted.
"Father, there's no need to persuade me. Before this when in front of Duanmu Xiu, we were already bending over our backs to please him. This time, I won't kneel even if it means death." Wan Miaoyan stared at Qin Wentian. She soared up into the air and coldly looked at him. Blazing flames spread around her, "Even if I have to die, I will fight to the death."
Qin Wentian inclined his head, a mocking smile appeared on his face as he stared at Wan Miaoyan.
"Do you think you would appear very respectable just like that?" Qin Wentian faintly spoke. "Insulting others to show your arrogance, nothing but a bitch with a dirty mouth. What qualifications do you have to speak of the word 'challenge' to me? Or could it be that you still harbor a trace of hope? Thinking that it wouldn't look good on me to act against you if you defeated me?"
If Wan Miaoyan simply looked down on him, he wouldn't have minded it. But words like lowly, despicable, ant-like being as well as many other words of mockery had already completely eradicated his patience. Those words spoken before weren't something that could be cancelled out just like that.
Wan Miaoyan felt her heart pounding rapidly when she heard his reply, as her countenance couldn't help but change.
Qin Wentian glanced at her expression and coldly laughed, "As expected, you still have your pitiful pride, having those lowly thoughts."
As the sound of his voice faded, a powerful law energy gushed forth from Qin Wentian. He lifted his palm as countless runes transformed, forming into a gigantic palm imprint of destruction.
Wan Miaoyan's expression drastically changed as she frenziedly released her energy to defend. However, as the destructive palm landed, she was akin to an ant, directly being grabbed. The palm then flung her down with force as she slammed harshly onto the ground, feeling her inner organs shaking as she coughed out blood. Qin Wentian calmly stood there. From start until the end, he didn't move at all.
The people in the surroundings felt their hearts trembling. What terrifying strength. They were all at immortal-foundation but that palm strike was simply too fearsome.
Qin Wentian didn't stop. His palm continued pressing forward towards Wan Qingshan. With a single strike, the destructive energy flooded into Wan Qingshan's body, shattering his immortal-foundation.
At the same time, his left palm slammed out, smashing against Wan Yiyao, sending her flying through the air.
Wan Qingshan, Wan Miaoyan and Wan Yiyao all landed together, each suffering various degrees of injuries. Their faces were filled with despair as they stared at the young man whom they looked down upon.
However, Qin Wentian stopped. He merely turned and faced Beiming Nongyue, "Sorry, is it very boring?"
"I found it quite interesting." Beiming Nongyue laughed. She turned to Wan Miaoyan and spoke, "Given Brother Qin's current cultivation base, most probably in the entire immortal realms, at the same level, it's rare to find anywho could stand against him. However, you choose to bow down to characters like Duanmu Xiu and Mu Qiu to curry favor and to think that you even have the face to mention the word 'challenge.' Isn't this very interesting?"
Beiming Nongyue's words caused Wan Miaoyan's heart to pound badly, destroying her pride. Was she acting like what she disdained? The same thing she had said to Qin Wentian back then, by pretending to be respectable and lofty in order to elevate her own status. From this point, who was the truly lowly one?
In the eyes of people like Qin Wentian and Beiming Nongyue, what does she, Wan Miaoyan, count for?
"Truly interesting. Haha, let's go to the pavilion." Li Yufeng laughed.
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded lightly, ignoring the others from the Wan Clan, as well as Wan Miaoyan and the rest who were knocked down by him. At this instant, Wan Miaoyan and the others finally understood that they simply didn't exist in Qin Wentian's eyes at all. So, his calmness before this, was because he disdained to even bother with them.
"Zhiyin and old sir, let's go together." Beiming Nongyue smiled at them. Zhiyin glanced at Qin wentian but she didn't say anything but Wan Zhuqing was still stunened from the words Beiming Nongyue spoke earlier. In the entire immortal realms, it's rare to find anyone who could stand against Qin Wentian given his current cultivation base?
Beiming Nongyue's words were sufficient to cause the hearts of everyone to tremble. If it was spoken by ordinary people, it would most probably be laughed off. But the person who said this was the princess of the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty, Beiming Nongyue.
In that case, the weightage of these words were naturally worth their weight in gold.
Beiming Nongyue's figure flashed as she moved forward. Qin Wentian and the others respectively followed behind. There's naturally someone who already set up the tables necessary for the banquet at the pavillion. Beiming Nongyue didn't sit on the black throne, she chose to sit with the others, just like a gathering of friends.
She then stood up and smiled to everyone, "Although some minor things occured, don't allow the atmosphere to be spoiled because of that. These few are my friends and everyone should already know from earlier that Li Yufeng is the Saint Child of the Hundred Refinements Sect. Brother Qin is someone I got acquainted with back in the sacred academy. The sacred academy gathers the most talented geniuses in the immortal realms and among them, Brother Qin ranks right at the top."
Everyone turned to Qin Wentian. No wonder Princess Nongyue and the Saint Child Li Yufeng placed so much importance on this man. This man was even able to cause intense storms in the sacred academy, and although Beiming Nongyue said it simply, all of them understood how terrifying someone must be in order to rank at the top among the geniuses in the sacred academy.
"He seems to be another absolute character. Such a character came to the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty as well. Seems like the reputation of the Darknorth Immortal Mountain is real." Someone spoke.
"To think that we actually could meet Sir Qin here. I wonder if we can request for a few cups of wine from the Princess as well?" At this moment, a melodious voice rang out as quite a few beautiful figures soared into the air. As everyone turned their gazes over, sounds of exclamation could be heard. These maidens who just appeared seemed to be intent on masking their features. All of them were veiled. But at this moment, their veils were removed as their beautiful faces appeared in the vision of everyone.
"This...there are so many beauties here." Everyone's hearts trembled.
"Oh, so it's the celestial maidens from the Jadestage Immortal Palace. Please feel free to join us." Beiming Nongyue smiled, causing the sounds of exclamations to grow even more intense.
Jadestage Immortal Palace...It was also another peak power in the northern regions. In addition, these faeries all seemed to be acquainted with Qin Wentian too.
"Many thanks to Princess Nongyue," The faeries stepped forth. The person who spoke earlier was none other than the holy maiden of the Jadestage Immortal Palace, Shen Yuehua. She was acquainted with Qin Wentian back then in the sacred academy.
"Sir Qin, how have you been?" Shen Yuehua smiled.
"Fairy, I'm fine, what about you?" Qin Wentian laughed. Everyone then sat down and enjoyed the banquet.
The people of the Wan Clan had yet to leave. Wan Miaoyan stood up, and stared at the scene on the pavilion. Princess Nongyue, Fairy Jadestage, Saint Child of the Hundred Refinements Sect. These people were all legendary characters, but they were so respectful to Qin Wentian. Or more accurately, right from the very start, Qin Wentian was someone on the same level as those people.
Such a character was actually insulted and had things being made difficult for him in their Wan Clan.
Only Zhiyin and Wan Zhuqing didn't act as such. Hence, both of them right now were sitting in the honored seats, together with those legendary characters!
"Let's go." Wan Qingshan's face became very aged. Those two words he just spoke seemed to contain a boundless sorrow!
