Chapter 1012: Qin Wentian, Immortal
"Who is he exactly?" Everyone was staring at Qin Wentian. They all knew the character of Xie Yu very well. He was extremely evil and both his parents were immortal-foundation experts. His father Xie Shi, was a demonic lion, a hegemon of a particle world. His mother Bu Yanyu, is the City Lord of this city. Xie Yu basically could do whatever he wanted in the Worryfree City, and no one would dare comment anything.
But now, just a sentence from this young man - commanding Xie Yu to get his parents to see him - actually made Xie Yu submit.
From this point, one could infer that this young man surely had an extraordinary status. Those arrogant young experts from the immortal-ranked powers who came here with Xie Yu all quieten down, not daring to be rude anymore as they felt trepidation in their hearts. They transmitted their voices to Xie Yu, asking him about the background of this man. However, Xie Yu refused to say anything at all, accusing them to be extremely annoyed.
The people from the Battle Sword Sect were all bewildered as well. The old ancestor of the Battle Sword Sect looked at Qin Wentian as he silently mused, "The talent of this fellow is extremely outstanding. Seems like even in the immortal realms, he must have extraordinary accomplishments. It’s very possible that he also joined a major immortal-ranked power. If not, Xie Yu wouldn’t be so afraid of him.
"Wentian, you joined an immortal-ranked power?" Ye Lingshuang directly asked.
"You can put it that way I guess." Qin Wentian spoke. He was a disciple of the Heavenly Talisman Realm, but everyone in the external world thought that he was the disciple of the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord.
"Seems like you must have joined a major power in the Jiangling Country, your sect should be able to suppress the City Lord of the Worryfree City right?" Ye Lingshuang smiled. This foster brother of hers was truly awesome.
Qin Wentian declined to comment and merely smiled. The people of the Battle Sword Sect rest their heart at ease. Seems like with Qin Wentian here, nothing would happen to their Battle Sword Sect. Given how terrified Xie Yu was of Qin Wentian, it was clear that Qin Wentian must have an extremely high status.
Both sides simply ceased fire despite them being fully prepared for battle. The experts all stood there not knowing what to do.
Qin Wentian, naturally became the focal point of attention.
"Everyone, please feel free to retreat. Just let me handle the things here. There won’t be any problem." Qin Wentian spoke to those from the Battle Sword Sect. All of them nodded and retreated to a space behind Qin Wentian. Only Lou Bingyu and a few others remained standing together with Qin Wentian.
After some time, fearsome auras could be felt gushing over here from afar. Everyone inclined their heads only to see two silhouettes rushing with rapid speed over, directly landing before Xie Yu.
"City Lord." The experts Xie Yu brought with him, all bowed to Bu Yanyu.
Bu Yanyu didn’t even bothered to glance at them, her eyes were on Qin Wentian. As expected, it was him. He actually returned to the Worryfree City. Back then, Qin Wentian heavily injured Jiang Kuang of the Jiang Clan right before her face. At that time, nobody knew that this young man would eventually become the top ranker of the hundred-year recruitment banquet of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect, and even daring to reject the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor in his face. In fact, she only knew of this after the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord governed the six prefectures.
The people of the Worryfree City might not know this, but as the City Lord, she naturally paid attention to the news.
Many thoughts flashed through her mind. Qin Wentian once had some conflict with them. Was he here to call to account of those grudges formed in the past?
"City Lord of the Worryfree City, Bu Yanyu pays her respect to Lord Qin." Bu Yanyu bowed. This scene caused all the experts here to be stunned.
An immortal-foundation expert, the City Lord of Worryfree City actually called Qin Wentian as Lord Qin. Not only that, she even bowed to him. What status did this young man have exactly.
"Bu Yanyu. You don’t know how to discipline your son. How should you handle this?" Qin Wentian’s eyes gleamed with sharpness as he tyrannically spoke. The experts from the Battle Sword Sect all felt their hearts shuddering. In the fact of an immortal-foundation expert, Qin Wentian was actually still so domineering?
Immortals in their particle world, had boundless supreme authority. Back then, the Royal Sacred Sect could act so tyrannically and be the hegemon of their world simply because they had immortals backing them.
Now, Qin Wentian was actually so daring when facing against an immortal-foundation expert. Simply inconceivable.
Bu Yanyu and Xie Shi visibly stiffened. Xie Shi then spoke, "Once we return, I will make sure to give him a harsh punishment which he will never forget."
"I’m not talking to you." Qin Wentian glanced at Xie Shi, his eyes cold. Xia Shi countenance turned sinister, as Bu Yanyu hurriedly interjected, "Lord Qin, how do you want us to deal with him?"
"As the Citylord of Worryfree City, you are supposed to govern this city. However you allow your son Xie Yu to tyrannize and oppress the other powers, treating lives of people as weeds. Xie Yu should be punished by death and as for you, it’s about time for you to give up the position as the City Lord." Qin Wentian coldly spoke. His voice was like thunder that rang through the skies, shaking the hearts of countless people. This young man wanted Xie Yu to be punished by death?
Not only that, he wanted Bu Yanyu to give up the position of City Lord.
"I’ve been governing the Worryfree City for 1,000 years. Despite the Cloud Prefecture shifting ownership, the City Lords of all 81 Countries remained unchanged. Isn’t it a little ridiculous that Young Lord Qin wants me to give up the position with a single sentence and even want to sentence my son to death?"
An extremely cold smile appeared on Qin Wentian’s face when he saw Bu Yanyu’s domineering attitude. He then spoke in a low voice, "Very good."
His smile was cold and sharp, and it actually caused Bu Yanyu to feel her heart trembling, faintly sensing how dangerous the young man before her was.
"Since City Lord Bu doesn’t like me using my status to override you. I shall talk to you using my personal identity, no more no less. In the past, your City Lord Manor seized my friend Qin Qing and even pursue to hunt me down. It’s about time to account for that debt right?" Qin Wentian coldly spoke.
"So we are handling this on the level of personal grudges now?" Bu Yanyu icily spoke.
"That’s right. Personal grudges. Feel free to disregard my status." Qin Wentian spoke.
"In that case, fine. Since Young Lord Qin put it this way, we might have to offend you then." Bu Yanyu’s eyes flashed with killing intent. Seems like there was no way for her to continue being the City Lord of Worryfree City anymore. Given Qin Wentian’s current status, how could he allow her to stably sit in her position. And if she killed Qin Wentian, there would only be endless troubles. Her only option now was to escape the prefecture immediately, heading to the other prefectures under the control of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect and support them.
As long as she has authority and power, what does it matter if she loses the City Lord position?
"Just get it over with. Don’t waste my time." Qin Wentian spoke.
However in the next moment, a swishing sound echoed as a man stepped out from the crowd. His body had a corona of immortal light and was none other than an immortal-foundation expert.
"Who are you?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Commander of the Worryfree City." The immortal replied. "I pay my respects to Young Lord Qin."
"Good. After today, you will temporarily take over the position of City Lord." Qin Wentian calmly stated. As the sound of his voice faded, Bu Yanyu smiled. "Qin Wentian, you are too impudent. Although you have a protective strand of immortal sense on you, I won’t kill you but will capture you instead and send you to the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect in exchange for a better position."
"You must be courting death." Purgatory icily spoke. Stepping out, a resplendent red glow filled the sky as a wave of heat enveloped this space, causing many to feel shock in their hearts.
The beautiful girl behind Qin Wentian was actually an immortal-foundation expert.
"Immortal Foundation." The experts of the Battle Sword Sect were all in a daze. As for those which spoke rudely earlier, all of them were shuddering from this realisation.
"No wonder you dared to be so impudent. So it turned out that you have an immortal-foundation expert protecting you. However, she alone is far from sufficient." Bu Yanyu and Xie Shi gushed forth with immortal might. Stepping out, an angry roar from Xie Shi shook the sky as a terrifying lion king manifested and dashed forth, lunging for Purgatory.
Purgatory stabbed forth with her finger, her immortal-foundation unleashing a overwhelming might as the phantom of a vermillion bird shot out, colliding with Xie Shi’s attack, causing both to explode from the impact.
"Her combat prowess is very strong." Xie Shi spoke to Bu Yanyu. The two of them stepped out together as a thunderous blast rocked the area. Xie Shi transformed into an incomparably gigantic demonic beast, wanting to devour heaven and earth. He directly appeared before Purgatory, wanting to swallow her whole.
Purgatory’s body shimmered with boundless light. Instantly, the faint shadow of a resplendent vermillion bird shrouded her being. Spreading its wings, its charm had no comparison. With a long screech, balls of purgatory fire shot towards Xie Shi as the two of them began to fight. Xie Shi was a second level immortal-foundation expert yet Purgatory wasn’t in any way inferior during combat, matching him blow for blow. The people in the surroundings were all staring at this scene with their eyes wide open.
"Bzz!" And at this moment, Bu Yanyu transformed into after-images, bypassing Purgatory. Her movement was too fast, powered with the use of an immortal movement technique. She instantly appeared before Qin Wentian, a domineering burst of immortal might bore down on him as silvery white feathers as sharp as swords manifested, slicing down at Qin Wentian. Given the speed of an immortal-foundation expert, she was so fast that the Battle Sword Sect completely had no time to react.
"Wentian!" The countenances of the people from the Battle Sword Sect all drastically changed. Bu Yanyu had a cold smile on her face, the sword feathers had already descended.
"Chi, chi, chi..." Sharp piercing sounds rang out, the sword feathers landed on Qin Wentian’s shoulder but upon coming into contact with his body, a pure white flame appeared. There weren’t any blood, Qin Wentian’s arm wasn’t severed either. He simply stood there, calmly watching everything.
However the Qin Wentian at this moment, had resplendent runes flowing around him, covering him with their light. In the next moment, a burst of immortal light illuminated the sky while Qin Wentian’s aura changed, to something transcendental, simply unexcelled in the world.
Qin Wentian was an immortal!
"This..."
"Immortal Foundation!" The experts from the Battle Sword Sect were all immensely shock, staring at the young man before them. Qin Wentian actually ascended to immortality!
"Hu..." The old ancestor of the Battle Sword Sct felt his body shaking as he drew in a deep breath. "How fearsome the latter generations are. No wonder he said he was showing mercy when we sparred earlier."
"How can this be? Many people were in disbelief. Although Qin Wentian might be an immortal, Bu Yanyu was one long ago. How could she fail to sever his arm with such a powerful attack? Could it be the defence of his body was extremely strong?
Ji Feixue, Lin Shuai, Duan Han and the rest were all dumbfounded when they saw this. Qin Wentian ascended to immortality?
Lou Bingyu stared at that king-like figure radiating immortal light in a daze. A slight feeling of depression crept in her heart as complications could be seen in her eyes.
Naturally, the one whose expressions changed most was none other than the Citylord of Worryfree City, Bu Yanyu. Her attacks basically had no effect on Qin Wentian.
"Courting death." Qin Wentian spoke. He lifted his right hand and pierced forth with a finger infused with immortal might. The distance between them two was too close, Bu Yanyu simply couldn’t evade this finger attack.
"Puchi!" The finger landed as the immortal might directly tunneled through her. Waves of energy from the law of destruction gathered in his finger, penetrating right through her immortal foundation.
"ARGH!" A cry of agony rang out. Bu Yanyu’s immortal foundation was shattered!
