Chapter 1445: Malicious Intentions
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Qin Wentian then glanced at the other group. To think that one of the groups would be people from the Sacred Sun Sect. The second group also demanded for preferential treatment, wanting their weapon order list to be completed within a month. They should be from a peak power as well.
According to the map inscribed on the jade slip, the nearest two peak powers to the Blackmetal Emperor Sect, were the Sacred Sun Sect and Thunder God Hall. From sensing the fluctuations of the auras of these people, they should be experts from the Thunder God Hall.
“I’ve already come to an agreement with holy maiden. Even if I’m willing to delay my orders, are you not making things difficult for the holy maiden? Expecting her to complete the two weapon order listings in a single month that usually requires half a year to complete?” Qin Wentian calmly asked.
“This has nothing to do with you. You just need to agree to delay your order, the holy maiden will know what to do.” That expert from the Sacred Sun Sect spoke very domineeringly.
Qin Wentian glanced at him, an air of arrogance radiated forth as he coldly spoke, “Since you guys have no idea what the word ‘respect’ means, why must I delay my weapon order for you? Forgive me for not being able to agree.”
The other party frowned, feeling somewhat taken aback. Qin Wentian actually directly rejected them?
They had already clearly said that they were from the Sacred Sun Sect.
“Respect?” One of the experts laughed. “Seems like the brain of this man is somewhat addled.”
“Mhm, he is actually speaking about respect before those of us from the Sacred Sun Sect?” Another expert laughed, staring mockingly at Qin Wentian.
“Sir, we are from the Thunder God Hall. It’s for the best if you delay your weapon order.” An expert from the other group spoke. They came here to request the holy maiden to forge weapons for them and it wasn’t suitable for them to force her. They could only pressure Qin Wentian, wanting him to back off. They simply didn’t have the time nor patience to wait six months.
Qin Wentian glanced at the experts from these two groups as a cold light flickered in his eyes. He then spoke, “Scram.”
As the sound of his voice rang out, it was like a thunderbolt from the clear sky. The expressions of the experts from the two groups drastically changed. Even the master-uncle of Feng Qianxue furrowed his brows, staring with bewilderment at Qin Wentian. Did he want the experts from the Sacred Sun Sect and the Thunder God Hall to scram?
In addition, the people here were all at the immortal-king realm.
“Brother Qin.” Feng Zhu transmitted his voice, feeling very shocked by his words. Feng Qianxue also stared at Qin Wentian with surprised. They all thought that Qin Wentian would definitely agree. After all, these were experts from two peak powers that were making the request.
“Don’t say that I’m not giving the Blackmetal Emperor Sect face.” At this moment, an expert coldly spoke. He walked out, illuminating the area with sunlight that shot towards Qin Wentian. A fiery and scorching air gathered in his palm, transforming into a fearsome solar storm that churned wildly. In an instant, the space around him turned into a furnace powered by sun flames, incomparably hot.
“BOOM!” He punched out, the sun immortal fist swept through the air, shooting towards Qin Wentian, wanting to engulf him in the solar storm.
Qin Wentian’s palm also blasted forth directly. With a thunderous boom, just when everyone thought that he would be engulfed by that terrifying attack, nothing actually happened to him! The sun flames burned intensely, but Qin Wentian’s body was circulating with a divine glow, seemingly undamaged despite the intensity of the burning flames.
With an intention, a giant palm imprint appeared in the air. This palm was covered with runic inscriptions, akin to the hand of God. It smash through everything, directly appearing before that expert from the Sacred Sun Sect.
The expression of that person instantly changed. Numerous balls of sun flames appeared around him while his fellow sect members unleashed their energy to help him fend off the attack. Another resounding bang rang out as the fiery atmosphere dissipated, causing a burst of brilliant light to shoot straight up into the air, illuminating the entire area. This caused many people from the Blackmetal Emperor Sect to glance over in surprise.
“What’s going on?” Many of the people from the Blackmetal Emperor Sect were shocked. Such a powerful aura, were there people fighting in their sect?
In the battlefield, that expert who attacked Qin Wentian, was forced back many paces away due to the impact. He coughed out a mouthful of blood as a hint of fear could be seen in his eyes. In the air, many of his fellow disciples had sacred sun light around their bodies, protecting them from the aftershock. Their eyes gleamed with light as they stared at Qin Wentian.
The power of this man was so tyrannical. Even those who were not on the battlefield, also felt the pressure from the waves of the aftershock rippling through them. The expert fighting against Qin Wentian was forced back a huge distance but Qin Wentian was as immovable like a rock, still standing at his original location.
“Don’t act so arrogant and despotic just based on the fact that you are from the Sacred Sun Sect. If not, I wouldn’t mind teaching you manners.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke, his words domineering to the extreme, causing his opponent to instantly turn ashen.
“You dare to talk to me like this?” The aura of that person gushed forth, he had no way to suppress his anger and wanted another round of combat with Qin Wentian.
“Do you have mental problems? Stop antagonizing me. If not, do you believe that I will kill you first and join the Sacred Sun Sect too?” Qin Wentian stared at that expert as he threatened, his words causing the countenance of his opponent to change. His opponent then coldly snorted, “Do you think the Sacred Sun Sect is so easy to join?”
“I can kill you with a single strike. Even a trash like you can join but I can’t? If the Sacred Sun Sect doesn’t want me, it is not the only peak power in the central regions. Do you want to try me?” Qin Wentian stepped out, his mid-stage immortal king aura gushed forth, sweeping over everything. Even those who were not in combat couldn’t help but take a step back when they felt the intensity of his aura.
“Everyone, enough. Let me ask if Qianxue has a better idea.” At this moment, an expert from the Blackmetal Emperor Sect spoke out. Clearly, he didn’t want to blow up this matter. This friend of Feng Qianxue was an extraordinary individual, tyrannical and having the strength to back it up. If he really killed the people from the Sacred Sun Sect here, things would be disastrous for the Blackmetal Emperor Sect.
“Qianxue, can you do your best to hurry up and forge these divine weapons? The Sacred Sun Sect and the Thunder God Hall requires them urgently.” That old man continued, casting a glance filled with meaning to Feng Qianxue.
“Even if I prioritize the two weapon order lists, it will still be impossible to finish them within a single month. How about this, there’s no need to argue now, just give me two months of time and I’ll finish the weapons for both sides?” Feng Qianxue spoke. These people from the peak powers were the toughest to handle. She could only promise them first to pacify them.
“Everyone, Qianxue is right. After all, it’s not possible for us to create some inferior-quality weapons just to meet with the deadline. We have to ensure quality above all else.” That old man glanced at the two groups as he spoke.
“Since this is the case, I will give you some face. Make it two months then.” One of the experts spoke. He seemed to be the leader of those from the Sacred Sun Sect. He also cast a glance at Qin Wentian as he spoke.
“You better remember this.” That expert who fought with Qin Wentian coldly spoke, glancing at him with killing intent.
The experts from the Thunder God Hall also cast a deep glance at Qin Wentian before they left the area.
Feng Zhu let out a sigh of relief. “Brother Qin, you truly gave me a fright. These people are from the Sacred Sun Sect but you still dared to act against them.”
“My strength is not weaker than them, why would I not dare to? These people are after all, still immortal kings. It’s already very embarrassing for them as they are not able to defeat me. Surely, they wouldn’t mobilize all the powerful experts in their sect just to handle me alone. Can they even afford to lose so much face?” Qin Wentian casually laughed.
“That’s true. Brother Qin’s words do have logic.” Feng Zhu laughed. Qin Wentian was able to kill that person but he chose not to. If those experts went back to their sect to request for reinforcements to deal with him, it would really be a very shameful thing.
“Haha, enough about these losers.” Qin Wentian laughed. “However, isn’t the time limit of two months too short as well? If you need to, holy maiden please feel free to finish their orders first.”
“Don’t worry, I will still help Brother Qin to forge your equipments first. Brother Qin, there’s no need to constantly refer to me as ‘holy maiden.’ You can just call me Qianxue.” Feng Qianxue smiled.
“Mhm, Qianxue, I will have to thank you then.” Qin Wentian nodded.
“Let’s go, I’ll bring you to our forging area to take a look. Big brother, come with me too.” Feng Qianxue stated. Feng Zhu nodded in response as the others departed. Feng Qianxue then led the way. She headed first for an ancient hall. The ancient hall they were heading over, were like a treasure vault for weaponsmiths, containing many valuable materials within.
After gathering the materials, she brought them into a forging room that had a powerful fire formation in it. When Feng Qianxue activated the fire-attribute energy within her, the formation would boost the intensity of the flames according to her will. The flames would blaze brilliantly, the temperature was high enough to burn immortal kings into ashes.
“What a fearsome temperature.” Qin wentian spoke. At the center of the formation, a runic network of divine inscriptions could be seen, transforming into a dazzling diagram. The materials placed there were instantly smelted.
Before this, Qin Wentian had also dabbled in weapon smithing. However, after that, he placed the majority of his time and efforts in his own cultivation. He had no direct experience in forging an immortal-king grade weapon.
“As the smithing process continues, the intensity of the flames would need to be greater than before. The formation here will enable Qianxue to control the flames to her will.” Feng Zhu spoke.
“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded, quietly observing as Feng Qianxue was forging the items. A brilliant flare of runic light burst from Feng Qianxue, condensed into the form of a sword by her immortal sense as she started to inscribe the runes. At this moment, Qin Wentian could feel a fearsome sword intent from her, aiding her in the forging process.
“Is this an attribute granted to her by her astral soul?” Qin Wentian asked.
“Qianxue’s astral soul can indeed boost her forging capabilities. Right now, she could create minor formations within her own body anytime she wants to, resulting in that she could forge swords even though she doesn’t have sword-law attribute energy. But as for the level of the sword-intent, she would have to depend on smelting other materials to heighten the sword-intent as she infuses it into the sword she forged.”
Qin Wentian’s eyes gleamed when he heard that. He thought of the Law Refinement Method, the Heavenly Talisman Treasured Tome and God’s Hand. There were really many similarities between all of these.
There were truly many wondrous things in the world. Feng Qianxue actually would have such extraordinary capabilities.
…
As Qin Wentian was observing Feng Qianxue, the experts from the Sacred Sun Sect and the Thunder God Hall had gathered together. They sealed the courtyard they were in and all of them had unsightly expressions on their faces.
“That person is truly arrogant to the extreme. Why don’t we join forces to kill him?” That immortal king who fought against Qin Wentian earlier spoke. He still could not suppress the anger from then.
“Don’t forget the real reason why we are here.” The leader coldly berated. He then continued, “After the Blackmetal Emperor Sect submits to us, you can do whatever you want to that holy maiden. At that time, it would be a piece of cake to kill that man.”
“When would our allies act?” That immortal king from earlier coldly asked.
“Any time now. When they act, we have to cooperate with them and put up a great show. If the Blackmetal Emperor Sect still refuses to submit to us, we can only do things by force then.”
“Mhm, with the invasion by the Desolate Mountain Range’s greater demons, we, as the peak powers, naturally have to concentrate the strength of each and every area. Only by doing so would we be strong enough to withstand this incoming storm, growing stronger than before.”
