Ancient Godly Monarch

”Princess Youhuang, where will I stay? This princess residence is just for you to stay in. Could it be that I’m going to stay here together with you...?” Qin Wentian’s heart silently trembled, but he still shamelessly said those words out loud.

Beiming Youhuang’s smile vanished as her expression turned cold, ”I want to see how long can you continue to be so glib for. You best not wander about randomly in my residence. Although I did promise that I wouldn’t do anything to you, but if you take the initiative to court death, I definitely won’t be polite. Also, if you are unhappy about having to come with me, you can talk to me directly. If you sneak away secretly…”

”How would I do that? Being able to live together with Princess Youhuang is like a dream for me. How would I bear to leave?” Qin Wentian replied.

”Hmph.” Beiming Youhuang flicked her sleeves and departed with a flash of her silhouette. She actually really didn’t do anything to him, only placing him under house arrest. As long as he doesn’t step out of the princess residence, there shouldn’t be any problems at all.

”What does this female apparition want exactly?” A look of pondering appeared on Qin Wentian’s face. The first time he met Beiming Youhuang was in the City of Ancient Emperors. At that time he already found her to be unbelievably beautiful and mysterious. She was able to appear from the void and even possess the bodies of others. Even now, there was still a shadow in his heart when he recalled her mysterious abilities, and he silently still called Beiming Youhuang as a female apparition.

Beiming Youhuang had completely departed from the area, leaving Qin Wentian behind.

His immortal sense enveloped the princess residence and with a flash, Qin Wentian came to an elegant-looking hot spring in the midst of fake mountains within the residence. Since there was nothing to do, he decided to solidify his foundation. He had just entered the immortal king realm and there were still many techniques worthy of his contemplation. Since he was placed in house arrest, he decided to just quietly cultivate for now.

Qin Wentian closed his eyes and soon sank into an immersed state. He completely forgot his surroundings, he really didn’t seem to mind this house arrest at all.

Time slowly flowed by and night arrived. Starlight cascaded downwards, bathing this ancient residence in a beautiful light. The astral energy permeated all area, clearly, a powerful cultivator was using their constellation to attract astral energy for their cultivation.

Qin Wentian’s heart had no distractions but at this moment, an apparition-like figure silently came over. This apparition was clad in white, so soft looking that she seemed to drift about in the air. She had no aura at all. Also, the face of this apparition was extremely beautiful, it was actually none other than Beiming Youhuang.

Just like what Qin Wentian had imagined, she was now really like a female ghost.

Beiming Youhuang moved closer to Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian furrowed his brows as though he sensed something, but his eyes were still closed. Beiming Youhuang’s figure floated behind Qin Wentian and slowly wanted to enter him, as though she truly was a spirit, intent on possession.

But at this moment, Qin Wentian’s body started trembling. Beiming Youhuang’s apparition was also trembling within Qin Wentian’s body. That, was a tremble of their souls.

In the soul world, Qin Wentian and Beiming Youhuang’s souls were standing in opposition. They were in Qin Wentian’s soul world within his body and right now, there was a terrifying energy sealing this body, causing her soul to be unable to hide.

”What? You also cultivated soul energy?” A strange light flashed in Beiming Youhuang’s eyes flashed with a strange light. She was actually trapped here. Seems like she had underestimated Qin Wentian.

”Princess Youhuang, what do you mean by acting like this? This is a great taboo for all cultivators. One’s soul would is one’s forbidden territory, don’t you know that without a soul, the body would only be an empty husk?” Qin Wentian’s soul stared at Beiming Youhuang. The two of them were communicating via their souls, in the real world, there were no sounds emitted.

”Don’t you need to pay a price for spoiling my plans to obtain that inheritance?” Beiming Youhuang spoke.

”What price do you want?” Qin Wentian coldly spoke. ”Wanting to pry the secrets of my soul, how can you guarantee not to even harm a hair of my head? This method might be powerful but Princess, don’t you find that you are too overbearing?”

By prying into one’s soul, one could gain access to Qin Wentian’s deepest memories, spying on everything. All sorts of secrets would be revealed. Beiming Youhuang’s actions were too ruthless.

”You refuse to pay me what you owe. I can only personally act myself to collect the debt.” Beiming Youhuang icily replied.

Qin Wentian was enraged, his expression turned unsightly as he said, ”Since this is the case, I truly want to see how would Princess Youhuang be able to seize my memories.”

As he spoke, Qin Wentian’s soul unleashed a tyrannical attack. His soul energy transformed into a giant palm and he utilized the technique of God’s Hand, directly blasting out towards Beiming Youhuang’s soul. The amount of soul energy was terrifying, Beiming Youhuang groaned and was sent flying. Her body trembled as her aura fluctuated.

Qin Wentian’s soul walked towards Beiming Youhuang only to hear her icily speaking, ”Seems like I have underestimated you. However, if you think your soul is stronger than mine, you might be in for a rude awakening.”

As the sound of her voice faded, in the real world, Qin Wentian suddenly felt a tyrannical aura enveloping him. After that, he saw a figure flying over, exuding dazzling light.

Beiming Youhuang’s magnificence could last through the generations. Under the starlight, she was like a divine maiden from the nine heavens, possessing supreme beauty and an ice-cold demeanor, as she walked towards Qin Wentian.

Clearly, Beiming Youhuang’s soul hasn’t left her body. If not, how could she control her body and move towards Qin Wentian in the real world?

In that case, what was that apparition trapped in Qin Wentian’s soul world?

”Is this the technique she used to enter the City of Ancient Emperors?” Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. Things must be so, Beiming Youhuang had cultivated a unique soul art, able to manifest soul energy to form a clone. Back then, this was how she entered the city of ancient emperors, and appeared among those who were at the Celestial Phenomenon level.

”I promised Nongyue not to hurt you. Don’t force me. You best cooperate with me.” Beiming Youhuang’s voice turned cold as she moved closer and closer to Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian’s expression was extremely unsightly. ”Princess Youhuang should understand that prying into one’s soul is an extremely taboo subject. Do you really intend to force your way through?”

”Hmph.” Beiming Youhuang stepped forth, ”Who asked you to block my way to the inheritance back then?”

She stood before Qin Wentian and stabbed out with a finger. Momentarily, a terrifying surge of energy gushed forth from her. With an explosive bang, Qin Wentian’s body trembled and his soul was actually forced out of his body. At the next instant, Beiming Youhuang closed her eyes and her soul came out as well. A tyrannical soul energy enveloped the area, gushing forth towards Qin Wentian’s soul.

”Soul battle?” Qin Wentian’s expression turned ugly. He didn’t expect that the first battle he fought after cultivating the Undying Scripture would be a soul battle against Beiming Youhuang. But luckily, he did cultivate the Undying Scripture or things would be even more dangerous. He might not even have any chance to resist.

This Beiming Youhuang was actually able to force someone’s soul out of their body. This was simply terrifying. Her insights to the soul are definitely more superior than him.

”I can obtain your memories without harming your soul. Just cooperate with me.” Beiming Youhuang coldly spoke. Although the two of them were speaking via their soul energy, this was the first time Qin Wentian experienced such a thing. For a moment, he didn’t know how to react.

Abruptly, he glanced over at that Beiming Youhuang’s soul wisp that was injured by him earlier as his eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He then spoke to Beiming Youhuang. ”Princess Youhuang, I still respectfully refer to you as princess. However, one’s memories are their sacred ground. I cannot let you pry into them. Don’t force me.”

”You have no other path to choose.” Beiming Youhuang coldly spoke. Her soul pressed towards Qin Wentian as a fearsome energy gushed forth, much much stronger compared to Qin Wentian’s soul energy,

The time which Qin Wentian cultivated the Undying Scripture was just too short. How could it be possible for his soul energy to be stronger than Beiming Youhuang? He was clearly being dominated.

”You have no choice,” Beiming Youhuang’s soul pressed over again as the amount of soul energy blotted out the sky. Qin Wentian could sense how terrifying it was. His arm suddenly raised as he snatched that wisp of soul of Beiming Youhuang and launched an attack that further weakened it.

Beiming Youhuang’s expression turned cold. That wisp of soul coldly spoke, ”So what if you exterminate a wisp of my soul?”

”Who says I want to exterminate it?” Qin Wentian’s soul stepped out and grabbed that wisp of soul into an embrace. Both his hands started to roam about her body, grabbing her waist. Although they were in soul form, they still had the feeling of touch, there was no difference from reality. In fact, their senses would be even sharper and more sensitive in soul form.

In an instant, Beiming Youhuang grew completely enraged. That wisp of soul radiated cold intent as well.

”Insolence!!”

”Insolence!”

Two exact same words were uttered, the cold intent radiated was so chilling that the surrounding temperature plummeted.

”Princess, please stop. If not I, Qin, might do something disrespectful.” Qin Wentian icily spoke. His hands were still roaming about, and was about to touch a place where he shouldn’t touch. The coldness Beiming Youhuang exuded shot up through the roof, terrifying to the extreme.

She was actually profaned by this bastard.

”Shameless prick.” Beiming Youhuang cursed in anger.

”Princess, do you feel your earlier actions were honorable? You wanted to pry into my soul, why do I still have to show restraint for? Princess, please return. Don’t bother me in my cultivation.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. His gaze was resolute and his hands were still moving about, causing Beiming Youhuang to tremble from anger.

”I will really kill you.” Beiming Youhuang spoke.

”Princess Youhuang is the number one beauty of the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty, a rare flower in the mortal world. Even if I have to die under a peony flower, I would die as a happy ghost.” Qin Wentian coldly spoke, he was already prepared in his heart when he did this. He had no way to accept anyone prying into his memories. No one can be allowed to do so.

”There’s no one here in the surroundings. No matter what I do, nobody would know. In any case, it’s just a small matter of Princess’ reputation being ruined. Princess naturally can continue to obstinately cling to your course of action. Worse comes to worse, my death here would surely implicate your Darknorth Immortal Dynasty, and might even create a war between the north and the east.” Qin Wentian continued. Beiming Youhuang trembled in anger. She glared at Qin Wentian, ”I’ve never met someone as shameless as you before.”

”Thank you Princess for the praise.” Qin Wentian replied.
