Chapter 1767: Guts as Great as the Heavens

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Ten Miles Springwind smiled, “You guys are all great saints. It’s been hard for all of you having to stay at my diaplilated inn.”

“That’s true.” The middle-aged man seriously nodded.

“I know your origins are great and I’m not qualified to serve you. If you have the capabilities to do so, don’t drink the jar of wine I gave you.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke in rage.

“I still have to drink the wine no matter what.” The middle-aged man ignored him, causing Ten Miles Springwind to be somewhat speechless. He then turned to Qin Wentian, “Seems like they all already know of you. Since this is the case, let me introduce them to you. This beautiful young woman is named Phoenix. She isn’t a demon, but just has this name. As for this middle-aged fellow who has no regard for anything in his eyes, his name is tyrannical to the extreme. He is named Cao Tian, jeering at the heavens. I wonder why his parents gave him such a name.”

“If you dare to speak this sentence before them, I guarantee that you won’t be able to survive even for one second.” Cao Tian coldly snorted.

“Yes, your background is so impressive.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke in contempt. He then continued, “As for this shameless old man, you can just refer to him as Old Ghost.”

After speaking, Ten Miles Springwind took out five cups and started pouring wine for everyone. “Okay, enough talking. We met each other by chance and now that Brother Qin is able to come here, after we drink this wine, everyone will be brothers. Come, let’s toast.”

“On account of this little friend, I won’t be calculative with you.” The old man coldly glanced at Ten Miles Springwind as he toasted to Qin Wentian.

“Brother Qin, my personality is somewhat prideful and people might not be happy to interact with me. In the future, please pardon me when we interact.” Cao Tian directly spoke and toasted Qin Wentian as well.

Phoenix also smiled at Qin Wentian. The group was very friendly, but when Qin Wentian noticed their gazes, he couldn’t help but feel that some conspiracy was underfoot. However, seeing everyone was toasting him, he could only lift his cup back in response. The five of them then finished drinking their cups of wine. As the wine entered his belly, Qin Wentian felt a wondrous sense of comfort circulating within his body. It was like even his state of heart has cleared up. His perception also grew clearer. This feeling was too amazing.

“Good wine.” Qin Wentian praised.

“This fellow has always been stingy. We can only drink this wine once every ten thousand years so how can this wine not be good? Every droplet of wine cannot be exchanged even with gold. It’s able to make one’s heart state clear and strengthen their perception. It also has the added benefits of tempering one’s body. You will sense all of this as long as you continue to drink. It’s even useful to world overlords like us.” Old Ghost wasn’t stingy with his praise of the wine. Qin Wentian nodded his head, seems like this wine was even more precious compared to those medicinal pills. He also wanted to get a few jars so Qingcheng and Qing`er could taste it. But since this wine was so valuable, it wasn’t too good for him to ask for it.

“You guys speak of this in such a relaxed manner. Everytime we meet, you all only know how to beg me for this wine yet all of you has no idea how hard it is for me to obtain them. I’m not like Brother Cao who is from an impressive background. Why don’t you guys tell him to get us some good wine instead?” Ten Miles Springwind spoke.

“You should know about his circumstances, why must you put it this way.” Phoenix calmly spoke. When she saw the bewildered look on Qin Wentian’s face, she explained, “Brother Cao’s identity is somewhat special. But he established his own power that is separated from his background and became an overlord of a realm.”

“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded, he didn’t probe any further. After all, this was the first time they were meeting. It wasn’t too good to ask questions about one’s origins.

But from what he has heard, Cao Tian should have originated from a very powerful background. Maybe he had a conflict with his clan and decided to set up his own power.

“These are all old matters, they aren’t worthy of being mentioned.” Cao Tian took a jar of wine and poured a cup for Qin Wentian. “At this moment, we should only be discussing about this beautiful wine.”

After speaking, he directly lifted up the jar of wine and gulped it all down, causing Qin Wentian to be extremely dumbfounded.

“You…” Ten Miles Springwind was completely speechless when he saw this. Old Ghost also sneakily took a jar of wine and gulped it down as though fearing that he might be at a disadvantage if he didn’t do so.

After that, Phoenix followed as well. A sexy woman like her was also snatching wine to drink. Such a scene caused Qin Wentian to be speechless. These people were all world overlords with extraordinary statuses, they were truly extremely ‘outrageous’ indeed.

But in any case, since they said that all of them are already brothers, how could he lose out? Hence, Qin Wentian also took up a jar and drained it right down. Ten Miles Springwind howled in grief but he could only follow what the others did. Just like that, several jars of wine were soon emptied. How could this be called wine tasting? This was simply wine snatching. This was the first time Qin Wentian saw people drinking like this.

“Are you satisfied now?” Ten Miles Springwind stared at everyone in rage. What a waste of heavenly treasures and ingredients, shouldn’t beautiful wine be slowly sipped in enjoyment instead?

“Ten Miles, you have always been outspoken and straightforward. Since it’s a rare event today as Brother Qin has joined our little group, why don’t you take more jars out to celebrate?” Old Ghost spoke to Ten Miles Springwind.

“Scram.” Ten Miles Springwind’s face was completely red from suppressed anger. How can he be fooled again? Even if he still had some wine left, he would resolutely refuse to take them out. He stared at the people before him and spoke, “Drinking with you guys? No kick at all.”

Qin Wentian weakly smiled. He managed to snatch quite a few jars of wine. Right now, he could feel the transformation inside his body. A powerful force was slowly tempering all parts of his body and this feeling was extremely comfortable. He almost couldn’t bear drinking all of them and he initially wanted to sneak some away. However, the wine was simply too good.

“Alright, since the wine has been drank, it’s time to discuss official matters.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke. Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed as he stared at Ten Miles Springwind. Official matters?

“Now that Brother Qin has joined us, we are naturally all brothers. During these days, a commotion was caused in Time City and I believed all of you already know about it, right? This Heaven Immortal Tower has gone too far and the Dragon Pool Manor doesn’t seem to have any intentions to apologize at all. They even gave out rewards, wanting to tempt bounty hunters to hunt down Brother Qin and after he killed the three world overlord bounty hunters, the Dragon Pool Manor finally made a move, sending a world overlord over to talk to him. But that world overlord’s attitude was extremely domineering, they most probably are planning to cause trouble for Brother Qin again.”

Ten Miles Springwind spoke, Qin Wentian felt somewhat puzzled. Why did they started talking about his matter all of a sudden.

“That’s true. The Heaven Immortal Tower went overboard.” Old Ghost narrowed his eyes as though he felt the same hatred towards them.

“We definitely have to vent these unhappy emotions out for Brother Qin. In addition, let’s give the Dragon Pool Manor some trouble so they won’t have time to make things difficult for Brother Qin.” Ten Miles Springwind continued.

“I have no objections, do you guys have any objections?” Phoenix asked.

All of them echoed one another, Qin Wentian felt that these people were putting on a play for him to watch. Why did it seem that everything was pre-planned out before they intentionally invited him over for a drink.

“Let’s rob the Heaven Immortal Tower.” Ten Miles Springwind’s next sentence caused Qin Wentian to be completely stunned.

Rob the Heaven Immortal Tower?

The major power behind the Heaven Immortal Tower was the Dragon Pool Manor. Wasn’t robbing the Heaven Immortal Tower the same as declaring war against the Dragon Pool Manor?

This was completely different from him forcefully capturing a servant girl. The weight of a serving girl wasn’t enough to shake the Dragon Pool Manor. But robbing the Heaven Immortal Tower was a completely different matter altogether. It was definitely a declaration of war.

Were these few fellows crazy?

“For Brother Qin.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke with a straight face. Qin Wentian’s countenance was filled with black lines, he was completely speechless. Only a ghost would believe Ten Miles Springwind’s words.

This was the first time they met. For his sake, they wanted to rob the Heaven Immortal Tower? What joke was this? This was conspiracy, definitely a conspiracy.

“Good idea.” Cao Tian nodded. “Old Ghost, what do you think?”

“I have no objections.” Old Ghost laughed loudly.

“The treasures in the Heaven Immortal Tower are mostly designed for female usage. Over here, I’m the only female. When the time comes, I definitely have to be the one who chooses the loot first.” Phoenix stared at the others and spoke as her eyes gleamed with light. This was the Heaven Immortal Tower they were talking about and she has naturally been there before. The treasures there would caused one’s heart to be stirred by greed and there were many different kinds. She was fond of several divine treasures there.

“As it should be.” Ten Miles Springwind nodded his head.

“Brother Qin, what do you think? Your brothers shall vent these unhappy emotions for you. There’s no need to thank us. Before this, I’ve already said that after we drank wine together, we are all already considered brothers.” Ten Miles Springwind patted Qin Wentian on his shoulder. Qin Wentian’s horizons were further broadened at how shameless and how thick the skin of this person was.

“Wait, speak clearly about this matter. I have no wish to be sold by you four.” Qin Wentian spoke. “The Dragon Pool Manor is a peak power here in Time City, you guys can contend against them?”

“Why do we need to contend against the Dragon Pool Manor when we are merely robbing the Heaven Immortal Tower?” Ten Miles Springwind stared at Qin Wentian as he asked. “It’s not like you have never been to the Heaven Immortal Tower before. The Dragon Pool Manor is extremely confident and they only sent three world overlords to guard the tower, feeling that no one would dare to rob them. As long as we control the three world overlords, wouldn’t we already be able to control the entire Heaven Immortal Tower? We will use the shortest amount of time to seize all the treasures away. No one would know we did this. The Dragon Pool Manor can take their time to investigate and at that time, where would they be free enough to cause trouble for Brother Qin?”

“You guys have already discussed everything before this, right? Why did you all include me?” Qin Wentian could clearly tell that all this was already planned out.

“Of course the reason is because of Brother Qin’s charisma.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke with a straight face.

“Scram.” Qin Wentian’s face was filled with black lines.

Ten Miles Springwind smiled awkwardly. He patted Qin Wentian on his shoulder, “Since Brother Qin wishes to know, I will tell you honestly. It’s true that the Heaven Immortal Tower has always been unfair when they do things and it’s also true that they sent people to make trouble for you. Such overbearing behavior, why can’t we touch them? There are plenty of good treasures in the Heaven Immortal Tower. What we are doing can be described by a saying. ‘A gentleman has his own way to attain his monetary aspirations.’”

“Since this is the case, you guys can go ahead and carry out the plan. Why is there a need to include me? If the Dragon Pool Manor discovers this, wouldn’t I become the scapegoat then?” Qin Wentian stared at Ten Miles Springwind. He had to make things clear. Such a major matter cannot be joked about.

If the Dragon Pool Manor learned of the identities of those who robbed the Heavenly Immortal Tower? What would they do? They would surely take crazy revenge.

“Brother Qin, I reside in Time City and have an inn under me. Brother Cao’s foundation is even deeper and he would have no reason to run away. Could it be that you think if something really happens, we can just pat our buttocks and run away so simply?” Ten Miles Springwind spoke. “Don’t worry, even if something happens, Brother Cao can simply step out at that time. We will then say that our actions are just to help Brother Qin vent out the negative emotions, I want to see what the Dragon Pool Manor can do then exactly. Now, do you understand why we must involve you?”

“Shameless.”

Qin Wentian was completely speechless as he stared at Ten Miles Springwind. So it turned out that they needed an excuse in case they were caught. But if they were really caught, it sounded like Cao Tian could handle everything?

In that case, Cao Tian’s background could suppress the Dragon Pool Manor?

Qin Wentian glanced at the people before him. These people were truly one of a kind.

“Brother Qin, we are doing this for you. Just tell us if you want to do it or not. Even if you don’t want to do it, given the attitude of that young world overlord who left after meeting you, they would definitely knock on your doors again. It’s best to act first to suppress them. If you cannot set your heart at ease, you can investigate about Brother Cao’s background first and you will understand that I didn’t lie to you.” Ten Miles Springwind asked as he looked at Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian’s heart pounded, robbing the Heaven Immortal Tower?
