Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 1775: Might of the Divine Phoenix

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Longyuan Haoyu was acquainted with Ten Miles Springwind. This boss of the Ten Miles Inn was quite famous among world overlords in Time City. He was a transcendent-level world overlord.

Cao Tian, was someone from the Cao Clan of the Scarlet Sun Immortal Realms. Their Dragon Pool Manor naturally had to be familiar with descendants of such major powers.

He was even acquainted Old Ghost and Phoenix. The two of them, although they are not from Time City, they both had extraordinary performances before in the previous Convention of the Myriad Realm. These four were all transcendent-level world overlords. And right now, when Qin Wentian left, they actually followed after him and if he left Beiming Youhuang aside…

At this instant, it was like a bolt of lightning went off in Longyuan Haoyu’s head. He suddenly had a bold conjecture and when he thought about it, his eyes instantly narrowed.

Five people, five transcendent-level world overlords. If it wasn’t for the earlier scene, he wouldn’t have noticed this detail at all. After all, there are too many major powers here today and it wasn’t rare that five world overlords would gather together. However, his attention had been on Qin Wentian since the very beginning because he sent someone to bring Qin Wentian’s woman away. This was how he managed to notice this detail.

He could take revenge on Qin Wentian and since that was the case, was it possible for Qin Wentian to take revenge on him?

If Qin Wentian had the ability to, it wasn’t completely impossible that he would rob the Heavenly Immortal Tower for revenge, right?

Naturally, this was merely a guess and he had no proof to verify it. However, a look of extreme sharpness flickered in his eyes.

…

In another location, Mo Qingcheng was abducted by the powerful world overlord. Given her cultivation base, there was basically no way for her to resist. Her entire person was forced to follow the world overlord, the cold wind constantly blew in her face as her black hair fluttered in the wind.

“Stop.” Mo Qingcheng called out.

The world overlord turned and coldly smiled, “You are truly a rare beauty. What a pity.”

Since Longyuan Haoyu wanted this woman, her ending wouldn’t be too good in any case.

Only to see Mo Qingcheng closing her eyes as her heart pounded. All of a sudden, her body began glowing resplendently. At this instant, her entire person seemingly exuded an extremely holy aura.

At her neck area, the imprint of a pendant could be seen. In the next instant, she radiated boundless brilliance as the phoenix gown she was wearing shimmered in and out of existence. A holy aura radiated from her and when the world overlord saw this, lightning flashed in his eyes. The next moment, an ancient phoenix suddenly manifested, protectively enveloping Mo Qingcheng. Mo Qingcheng’s movements were no longer controlled by the world overlord.

This ancient phoenix icily stared at the world overlord, causing the world overlord to frown. A demonic beast? Where did it come from? To think that it was actually a divine phoenix.

At this moment, at the location of the Heavenheart Mirror, the expression of that extremely beautiful young woman who came from a Region other than the Mystic Region instantly changed. She immediately stared in Mo Qingcheng’s direction. Her body then transformed into lightning as she rushed over with her greatest speed. Naturally, Mo Qingcheng had no idea that such a beautiful young woman would exist and the fact that the young woman was able to sense it when the divine ancient phoenix was summoned.

“Why are you doing this?” Mo Qingcheng stared at the world overlord before her eyes. Her expression was extremely frosty. Was it really because Qin Wentian didn’t give the residential palace up to him?

For those who came to the convention, there were experts of all levels. Although there were cases of powerful characters wanting to seize a palace, one has to know that the palace Qin Wentian had chosen was in quite a remote location. Yet even so, this world overlord still wanted it. One could only say that this world overlord clearly had other intentions. She knew that him abducting her was in reality because there was someone who wanted to act against Qin Wentian.

That world overlord stared at the phoenix and when he sensed the phoenix’s powerful aura, his expression instantly changed. Clearly, he didn’t expect such a thing would happen.

“Qingcheng, are you okay?” At this moment, Qin Wentian’s worried voice rang out in Qingcheng’s mind.

“I’m fine, I summoned the ancient phoenix to protect me.” Mo Qingcheng took out her messaging crystal and replied.

“Good, I’ll be there soon. Just delay him for me.” Qin Wentian spoke. Mo Qingcheng nodded. Seems like this matter was just as what she has speculated, there should be another story behind this.

Since this world overlord has clearly targeted her, Qin Wentian would clearly want to know the reason behind this or he wouldn’t be able to feel at ease.

The world overlord saw Mo Qingcheng taking out her messaging crystal and naturally knew what she wanted to do. At this moment, he was considering whether to flee or not. The aura of this ancient phoenix that was protecting Mo Qingcheng was extremely terrifying. What level was its strength at exactly?

“Senior, can you bind his movements?” Mo Qingcheng asked.

“Sure.” The divine phoenix agreed. A bright and clear musical note rang out from her beak. In an instant, the entire sky changed color as a corporeal domain appeared. This domain then transform into the form of a demon and was incomparably gigantic. If one observed it closely, they would be able to discover that this was the shadow of a phoenix.

That world overlord was actually trapped in the shadow of a phoenix.

“Bzz~” When the world overlord sensed this terrifying might, he no longer hesitated and directly sought to flee.

“Ash Incineration!”

The eyes of the divine phoenix flashed red, and an instant later, a red light directly shone upon the world overlord’s arm. He screamed in pain, the powerful fire energy directly ignored his defense and burned one of his arms into nothingness. In fact, one couldn’t even tell how it vanished, it simply disappeared.

In the corporeal domain, motes of this red light floated about. That world overlord’s countenance was as pale as paper. How could this be. This woman who only had a cultivation base at the immortal emperor realm actually was able to summon such a powerful divine phoenix that could insta-kill him if the phoenix felt like it?

“Why did you do this?” Mo Qingcheng coldly asked. Was this person really acting against her? Or was his true purpose acting against Qin Wentian?

That world overlord turned even paler. He stared at Mo Qingcheng, “Back then I felt that I have lost all face after your husband rejected me and I simply want revenge for that. I apologize for my deeds. Can you let me go? I will definitely never return again.”

Mo Qingcheng stared at the world overlord, she felt that this person wasn’t speaking the truth.

“Since this is the case, didn’t you want to meet with him earlier? Let’s wait for him here then.” Mo Qingcheng icily spoke, how was it possible for her to release this world overlord?

Not long after, spatial fluctuations rocked the area as a figure stepped out from the void. The expression of this figure was ice-cold and his entire person radiated an intense killing intent. It was none other than Qin Wentian.

After Qin Wentian, quite a few other figures rushed here with lightning speed. They were Ten Miles Springwind and the others who had followed him here. When they saw the scene before their eyes, all of them were stunned. They instantly guessed at something. Someone must have wanted to take action against Qin Wentian’s wife.

“Qingcheng.” Qin Wentian’s silhouette flashed as he arrived at Mo Qingcheng’s side. His heart finally calmed down when he saw that Mo Qingcheng was completely fine.

“Many thanks, senior.” Qin Wentian thanked the divine phoenix.

“Listening to my spirit lord’s orders are something I ought to do.” The divine phoenix replied.

Qin Wentian didn’t say anything else. He turned his gaze to that world overlord as cold fury flickered in his eyes.

“Who are you?” Qin Wentian asked in a glacial tone.

“Sir, I apologize for my actions. I had no intention to harm your wife, I just wanted to gain back some face after you rejected me.” The world overlord spoke to Qin Wentian, he still didn’t reveal the truth.

“What do the rest of you think?” Qin Wentian glanced at Ten Miles Springwind and the others.

“Since he dared to make a move against your woman, how can we spare him? Break an arm and two legs first before crippling his cultivation. We shall slowly question him after that.” Old Ghost sinisterly spoke, his tone causing that world overlord to turn pale.

“I’ve already apologized and I also said I truly had no intentions to harm her. Why must you all be so ruthless.” That world overlord started to panic.

“If it was me, and if someone dared to act against my woman, I would even cripple his ‘third leg,’ making him live a life worse than death,” Cao Tian directly spoke. That world overlord was so frightened that he trembled uncontrollably.

“Right.” Qin Wentian nodded and turned back to the world overlord. “I will give you a chance to speak. Don’t tell me something so stupid like you have no ill intents. You should know what I want to know. You only have a single chance, and don’t bother negotiating for conditions or to speak nonsense.”

The expression of the world overlord kept changing. Qin Wentian was only giving him a single chance to speak. If his words weren’t to Qin Wentian’s satisfaction, his consequences would be extremely dire indeed.

“My patience is limited.” Qin Wentian spoke again.

“Longyuan Haoyu is the one who told me to do this. I’m merely following orders, this matter has nothing to do with me and I didn’t want to participate initially. However, since Longyuan Haoyu has given the command, I have no way to reject it.” The other party spoke. He knew that if he didn’t reveal the truth, his ending would be extremely miserable.

“Longyuan Haoyu.” Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed with an incomparably intense killing intent. It was that young world overlord from the Dragon Pool Manor who wanted him to compromise and send Jin Zhi back to the Heavenly Immortal Tower first back then?

No wonder Longyuan Haoyu intentionally stared at him earlier. So this was the reason why.

“Qingcheng, did you leave the palace?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Nope, he directly entered the palace and captured me.” Mo Qingcheng spoke.

Qin Wentian turned his gaze to Ten Miles Springwind and asked, “Didn’t the Convention have a rule? Within the palace, absolute safety was guaranteed?”

With regards to this point, Ten Miles Springwind has told him before.

“Someone clearly knew about this but still chose to break the rules.” Ten Miles Springwind coldly spoke. His eyes also flickered with killing intent. If everyone acted like Longyuan Haoyu, ignoring the rules, the Time Realm would surely be in chaos. At that time, which world overlord would dare to bring their family and friends here?

“Go. Let’s go and find Longyuan Haoyu. Bring him along.” Cao Tian pointed to that world overlord as he spoke. “Let’s cripple him first.”

That world overlord instantly paled, “How can you all do this?”

Cao Tian’s figure flashed, moving with lightning speed as he appeared once more before the world overlord. With a single smack, he directly attacked the world overlord’s body. That person screamed and coughed out blood. His aura instantly weakened, as his features aged.

“Not crippling your ‘third leg’ is already showing kindness to you. Since you are willing to be the lackey of others, you should be prepared to be slayed at any time.” Cao Tian’s voice was tyrannical, the thing he hated the most was this kind of character who would act against the family and friends of others. This was especially so if those vile characters that tried to act against women. Cao Tian might have done many wrong things before and was often tyrannical and illogical, but he would never break this bottom line of his.

That world overlord’s expression turned ashen. He felt as though he was living in a life where he might as well be dead. Longyuan Haoyu’s plot had inadvertently harmed him!
