Chapter 1021: Qin Wentian’s Anger
At this moment, time seemed to stop. The two figures embracing in the air were so beautiful, and so moving.
He had returned.
Right now, everyone in Sky Harmony City finally knew who it was that has returned.
Qin Wentian had made a name for himself at Sky Harmony City when he was 16 years old, and by the time he turned 18, his name had rocked the entire Chu Country. Eventually, he had enough power to choose the next emperor of Chu, and he had even unified the nine continents, ultimately becoming the Monarch of Grand Xia. He had also rejected an immortal emperor’s offer to take him on as a disciple in full view of the entire particle world. How glorious was that? There was no one in this world who didn’t know of him.
When he married Mo Qingcheng in Chu, a commotion of earth-shaking proportions had occurred when the various transcendent powers came to make trouble. However, he had quelled their attempts in a single move. There was no one who could compare to him.
He’d been born in Chu, grew up in Sky Harmony City, suffered the renouncement of his engagement with the Bai Clan, and had eventually become the legend of Sky Harmony City.
However, in the end he chose to depart for the immortal realms and his departure had lasted over ten years.
Memories can fade with times, causing one to forget the events of the past. This was especially so in a small city like Sky Harmony City. When the Star River Association dominated their world, everyone submitted to their authority, and gradually people forgot about Qin Wentian’s existence. They had forgotten him to the point that they even dared to have designs on Mo Qingcheng.
Now that he’d returned, the magnificence he exuded reminded everyone of who he was—the legend of this entire particle world.
Staring at the magnificent silhouette of Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng’s flawless beauty, they seemed to be the most compatible couple underneath the heavens. Anyone who wished to desecrate their bond were merely courting their own humiliation.
Luo Huan finally caught up to Qin Wentian from behind. When she saw this scene, she felt currents of warmth in her heart. With a smile on her face, she had witnessed everything between these two lovebirds, right from the start of their relationship during their teenage years, until this very moment.
Finally, they were reunited once again.
Within the Qin Residence of Sky Harmony City, there were also people from the Bai Clan. Bai Qingsong and Autumn Snow stared at the two lovers embracing in the air. Autumn Snow felt no jealousy—she only felt happiness for them both as tears flowed down her eyes.
Qin Yao too, was moved by the sight and she openly wept with joy.
The two figures enjoyed each other’s embrace and didn’t speak for a long moment. Mo Qingcheng leaned against his chest and gazed at his handsome face, soaking in his familiar presence. Her beautiful face had long since been stained by tears, but she wasn’t bothered that Qin Wentian could see her fragile state. And despite her tears, she couldn’t help but smile with an incomparable radiance when she gazed into Qin Wentian’s eyes. She simply cried in that silly manner, and smiled in that silly manner.
That moment seemed to be encased in eternity. Qin Wentian stretched his hands out, wiping away the tears flowing from Mo Qingcheng’s eyes. His hands were very gentle, and he stared at the beautiful yet fatigued face of his wife. Qin Wentian’s heart clenched with pain She must have suffered so much throughout these years.
"Qingcheng... I’m sorry." Qin Wentian felt extremely guilty. Mo Qingcheng had made too many sacrifices for him—she had delayed too much of her own progress for him.
Mo Qingcheng’s dainty finger pressed on Qin Wentian’s lips. Her tears were still flowing, but with that gentle and radiant smile, it seemed that all the suffering she had gone through had instantly dissipated, like smoke into thin air.
Qin Wentian was smiling as well, and he held back from further apology. Right now, his silence conveyed what he wanted to say better than a thousand words. Leaning forward, he placed a tender gentle kiss on Mo Qingcheng’s forehead and murmured quietly, "Qingcheng, after this matter is concluded, I will bring you to the immortal realms."
"Mhm," Mo Qingcheng nodded earnestly. She had managed to curb her tears, but at his words they started to flow anew. Her glistening eyes were an extremely moving sight. She no longer wanted to be apart from him, separated by a distance of entire worlds between them. That was simply too far apart. For countless nights, she had stared at the sky, fantasizing that she could see Qin Wentian’s face among the stars.
Qin Wentian had Mo Qingcheng in his embrace as he landed on the ground. He glanced at the Medicine Sovereign, Qin Chuan, and Ye Qingyun as he called out, "Foster Fathers, Senior Medicine Sovereign. Wentian apologizes for being late."
"Not late at all, you are just in time. If you were any later, you’d probably lose the chance to see an old skeleton like me one last time." Qin Chuan smiled when he saw how extraordinary Qin Wentian had become. During the years, he had constantly worried for Qin Wentian’s safety. After all, Qin Wentian was in the boundlessly vast immortal realms that had been nothing but a legend to him. Over there, the experts were simply too numerous.
"It’s my fault—I have implicated foster father," Qin Wentian said regretfully.
"That’s no fault of yours. The Star River Association is just too tyrannical." Qin Yao was filled with vengeance with regards to the Star River Association. One of their ordinary disciples had even dared to harass her daily.
"Sis, who bullied you?" Qin Wentian saw the expression on Qin Yao’s face, and he stretched out his hand to stroke her hair.
Qin Yao glanced at him with some resentment, "You’ve come back after such a long time, and you still dare to ask who’s been bullying me?"
"I know I’m in the wrong, Sister, and you can beat me if you want to," Qin Wentian joked. From a young age, the woman in front of him had been his closest companion. They had grown up watching the stars together.
"Hmph, it’s good that you know you are wrong," Qin Yao pouted. "I can forgive you. Go and handle that fellow for me—he keeps coming to our residence every day to harass and insult me and even Qingcheng. He must die for sure."
As she spoke, Qin Yao pointed towards the young man who had insulted them earlier. Qin Wentian turned and gazed at the figure she pointed at, and when the young man saw Qin Wentian staring at him, he couldn’t help but beat a hasty retreat. He was someone from Sky Harmony City—naturally, he knew of Qin Wentian’s name.
"You even dared to harass my sister?" Qin Wentian spoke in a tone of ice. That person turned and tried to frantically run away, but with a flick of Qin Wentian’s finger, the sound of something being pierced rang out. The person fell directly to the ground.
"These people are all here to deal with our Qin Residence?" Qin Wentian asked Qin Yao.
"Mhm, everyone in the surroundings is a part of this. Other than the Star River Association, a majority of them are experts from the powers of our city. They wanted to fish in troubled waters, hoping to gain advantages and benefits from our strife. And so, they threw their lot in with the experts of the Star River Association to destroy us," Qin Yao said icily.
"Understood." Qin Wentian slowly stepped forward, and his overwhelming momentum caused the other experts to retreat. Qin Wentian’s name in Sky Harmony City, in Chu, and even in this entire particle world, belonged to the level of legends. Even if they had the Star River Association at their backs, who would dare to antagonize Qin Wentian?
The immortal from the Star River Association was still fighting against Qin Wentian’s demonic beast. Over here, nobody dared to touch Qin Wentian.
From afar, the sound of a raging wind gusted by. A group of experts on immortal treasures shuttled rapidly towards them with great speed. It was none other than Purgatory, Fairy Qingmei, and the others.
"Surround them." Fairy Qingmei waved her hands when she saw the situation, and a moment later, experts from her faction formed an outer perimeter, caging their foes within a circle. The people who came to destroy the Qin Residence all had extremely unsightly expressions on their faces.
"Monarch, how should we deal with them?" Everyone turned to Qin Wentian, awaiting his order.
"Spare no one, kill them all." Qin Wentian commanded.
"Roger!" Their voices were unified, thundering loudly together. The experts of Grand Xia began their slaughter. The expression of the expert fighting against Ye Qingyun instantly changed as he abruptly descended, intending to aid his people.
Qin Wentian didn’t even bother to look at him. He simply lifted a palm and blasted it outwards, smashing the peak-ascendant into smithereens.
The spectators who were watching from afar were all trembling. How powerful. How strong was Qin Wentian now exactly?
The experts from Grand Xia began their slaughter amidst screams of agony. Qin Wentian’s expression was coldly unforgiving. He stared at the Qin Residence’s demolished buildings; regardless if the enemy was the Star River Association or the other powers in the city who wanted a share of the benefits, he knew that only by using the most brutal methods to resolve the situation would everyone remember the warning. He didn’t want something like this to happen again.
A booming sound echoed from the air. The demonic dragon transformed from Little Rascal had ripped one of the immortal’s arms off. Fresh blood splashed through the air—he gave a roar of anger and sped downwards. His immortal foundation radiated a blinding light as it enveloped the people of the Qin Residence.
Qin Wentian’s immortal foundation thrummed as a supreme immortal might gushed forth from him, creating a force field of protection that was impossible for the immortal’s immortal might to break through.
Purgatory also made her move. She shot towards that immortal at lightning speed, launching purgatory fireballs straight at him.
Qin Wentian stared at that immortal. That man may be a second-level immortal foundation expert, but Little Rascal and Purgatory could even defeat him solo, let alone if the two of them joined forces.
"Qin Wentian, even if you have a total of three immortals on your side, you guys still won’t be able to withstand a single strike in the face of the Star River Association. Very soon, our great army will come here to slaughter you all. If you dare to kill me, the Star River Association will make your death even more miserable!" The expert struggled as he roared in rage.
"Don’t kill him off so easily, let him enjoy the pain of living before giving him death," Qin Wentian replied bluntly. Purgatory burned one of his legs with her flames, and the expert screamed once more. The fire then flowed into his body, burning his immortal foundation directly.
"QIN WENTIAN YOU DARE?!" he screamed in panic.
When Purgatory saw him threatening Qin Wentian, her countenance turned ice-cold. While the enemy was clashing with Little Rascal, her palm blasted into his body, shattering his immortal foundation amidst a thunderous deafening boom. The immortal light radiating from him vanished, but he was still alive.
...pu... Balls of vermillion bird flames began to consume his body.
"ARGH!" The immortal-foundation expert screamed in agony. His immortal foundation was crippled, relegating him back to mortality as the purgatory flames burned him alive One could very well imagine how much pain he was in. Many in Sky Harmony City personally witnessed this scene, and they felt their hearts turn cold. The famed legendary character was so terrifying, and had shown how ruthless he could be after being threatened.
An immortal was an existence they could not imagine, one that stood high up on an unreachable peak. Yet such a character was brutally crippled and burned to death by Qin Wentian’s demonic beast. He had threatened Qin Wentian as a test, and Qin Wentian replied to his threat with the most domineering response.
Finally, the body of the immortal from the Star River Association burned into cinders, dispersed by the wind. However, the shock that came from his death didn’t vanish.
Below, all the experts from the Star River Association no longer had any intentions of fighting. They only wanted to flee. How loud and imposing had they been when they arrived? They intended to level the Qin Residence to the ground, and capture the #1 beauty in Chu as well as the Medicine Sovereign. But now, they only wished to survive.
However, was living still an option? A few moments later, the entire ground of the Qin Residence was dyed red with their blood. They had destroyed the Qin Residence and reduced it to rubble. And now, the rubble they created would be their graveyard.
"Foster Father, bring some men to deal with those powers in the city who participated in this. Spare the innocent and the children, but for those who had the slightest bit of responsibility in this decision—kill them all without mercy." Qin Wentian’s frosty voice rang out through the heavens and earth, shaking the entire Sky Harmony City. They were preparing to use iron-handed methods to cleanse Sky Harmony City with blood. The large and small powers who wanted to strike at the Qin Clan when they were down, they would all be finished!
The Qin Wentian who returned had reappeared in a storm of fury. The powers wanted to kick his closest kin when they were down, destroyed the Qin Residence and had even been audacious enough to try laying their hands on his wife, Mo Qingcheng!
