Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 1365: The great roc rises with the wind

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

In the southern regions of the immortal realms, the three ancient clans were still the hegemon of this boundlessly vast stretch of land. This point wasnʼt something that could be changed so easily within a short time.

The tyrannical Ying Clan, the Southern Phoenix Clan governed by the Southern Phoenix Matriarch, as well as the mysterious and powerful Jiang Clan. These three great clans were all extremely powerful, their influence affecting the entire southern regions. Although there are still some other emperor-ranked powers existing in the southern regions, they had no way to shake the position of the three great clans.

In the past, when Qin Wentian came to the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, he was still a weakling. The him then was invited by Nanfeng Yunxi and came here to aid her to obtain the position as the holy successor. In the end, he did succeed as well.

Right now, he entered the ancient and majestic phoenix city once again. Qin Wentian couldnʼt help but to think of Nanfeng Yunxi, he wondered how was her cultivation now. The Southern Phoenix Clan had allied with the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect and Evergreen Immortal Empire for the emperor-ranked war that occured in the past. Although their point of connection was him, he understood that the true reason why the Southern Phoenix Clan decided to form an alliance, was because of Nanfeng Yunxi. Qin Wentian had always treated her as a bosom buddy who was able to share life and death together with him.

Hence, this time when he arrived at the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, Qin Wentian would have to pay a visit to Nanfeng Yunxi no matter what. Other than paying a visit, he might need to borrow the strength of the Southern Phoenix Clan in the future as well.

Outside the Southern Phoenix Clan, after Qin Wentian reported his name, a group of experts soon came to welcome him.

Upon seeing the person in the lead, a warm smile appeared in Qin Wentianʼs eyes.

Nanfeng Shengge, she was similar to Zhiyin, someone skilled in the arts and music. Her personality was gentle as water, and she was a great beauty as well.

”Sir Qin, itʼs been many years since we last met but your radiance is still as bright as ever.” Nanfeng Shengge smiled. After that, she winked to Qin Wentian, as a mischievous expression flickered on her face. Her gentleness also contained hints of adorableness within, and she was extremely amicable and intelligent. She was slightly different from Zhiyin. Zhiyin didnʼt like social gatherings and prefers to be alone. But Nanfeng Shengge didnʼt mind mingling with crowds and she herself was like a spring wind.

”Shengge, you are getting more and more beautiful.” Qin Wentian smiled. As one cultivates further, their aura would constantly be enhanced, their skin growing more radiant, as their beauty intensified.

”Sir Qin, stop teasing me. We rushed here as soon as possible once we got the news. Yunxi is now currently cultivating in the Jiyue Hall, hence Iʼm the one who came here to welcome you. Letʼs head there immediately, but Iʼm not sure when Yunxi will finish her cultivation. If she still hasnʼt finished when you are going to leave, I will barge in and wake her up.” Nanfeng Shengge smiled, as she led the way.

”Thereʼs no need for that, if Yunxi is in the middle of her cultivation, I will just pay my respects to senior Guhong before I leave.” Qin Wentian spoke.

”How can this do? Sir Qin came all the way here to our Southern Phoenix Clan. If Yunxi knew about this and knew that I didnʼt awaken her, she will definitely blame me.” Nanfeng Shengge shook her head and laughed. ”In addition, this time around, it isnʼt a life and death seclusion for her. It wouldnʼt affect anything.”

”In that case, you have to choose the timing well. I would have sinned if this delayed Yunxiʼs cultivation.” Upon seeing Nanfeng Shengge saying this, Qin Wentian could only bitterly smile and shook his head.

”Donʼt worry, if sheʼs at a critical point, I wonʼt awaken her.” Nanfeng Shengge reassured him. She was one of Nanfeng Yunxiʼs guardians. Naturally her actions would first consider the well-being of Nanfeng Yunxi.

In the Jiyue Hall, this place was considered a sacred hall to the Southern Phoenix Clan. Because they had high expectations of Nanfeng Yunxi, they decided to bestow this hall to her.

The moment Qin Wentian came here, he instantly saw some familiar people. Other than Nanfeng Yunxiʼs guardians, there were also those who fought against her for the position of the holy successor. However, other than him being more familiar with Nanfeng Shengge, he wasnʼt really familiar with the rest.

”You can rest here for now, I will go and call Yunxi over.” Nanfeng Shengge brought Qin Wentian to a place before she left. Qin Wentian quietly waited there and not long after, both Nanfeng Yunxi and Shengge appeared before him.

Qin Wentian stared at the two beauties before his eyes. Nanfeng Yunxi was graceful and elegant, and had a bright smile on her face. Nanfeng Shenggeʼs beauty was like a character from a portrait, extremely gorgeous, a feast for the eyes.

”Have you seen enough?” Nanfeng Yunxi glared at Qin Wentian. Upon seeing her gaze, Qin Wentian laughed, ”Yunxi, there are two great beauties before me, I naturally will take a few more glances at you two.”

”Are we better looking compared to Qing`er and Qingcheng?” Nanfeng Yunxiʼs eyes flickered with a smile. Qin Wentian started, stunned by the reply. But it seems that Nanfeng Yunxi was in a good mood.

”All of you have your own praise-worthy aspects, cough…” Qin Wentian shivered a little and smiled.

”Why are you free to pay us a visit?” Nanfeng Yunxi didnʼt beat around the bush and came straight to the point.

”I have something to do here in the southern regions. After not seeing you girls for so many years, I decided to come here specially to pay a visit as well as paying my respects to senior Nanfeng Guhong.” Qin Wentian laughed.

Among the major characters of the Southern Phoenix Clan, he was considered more familiar with one of the protectors of the Southern Phoenix Matriarch, an elder named Nanfeng Guhong. Naturally, since he came all the way here, he would also pay a visit to her.

”Mhm, do you want to stay here to rest for a period of time? I can make the arrangements.” Nanfeng Yunxi asked.

”Itʼs fine, Iʼm in a hurry. Right now, the situation in the eastern regions is getting more and more tense. Being able to see that you are fine as well as after paying a visit to senior Guhong, my wishes for coming here would have been fulfilled.” Qin Wentian spoke in a light voice. He then continued, ”Yunxi, accompany me to meet with senior Guhong. After that, I will be on my way.”

”You are in such a rush?” Nanfeng Yunxi had a look of astonishment on her face.

”Yeah, Sir Qin, it isnʼt easy for you to come all the way here. Why are you in such a hurry to leave.” Nanfeng Shengge persuaded.

”The Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect has a teleportation array leading to you, and so does the Evergreen Immortal Empireʼs royal palace. In the future, I can come here in the blink of an eye and will definitely stop by often to disturb you two beauties.” Qin Wentian joked.

”Yunxi will definitely be very happy.” Nanfeng Shengge also joked in a light voice, causing Nanfeng Yunxi to roll her eyes at her. This lass actually dared to say such a thing.

”Alright since this is the case, letʼs go. Shengge, accompany us too.” Nanfeng Yunxi spoke.

”Mhm.” Nanfeng Shengge nodded lightly. She was extremely close to Nanfeng Yunxi, just like her right arm. Among the many protectors, her talent was the highest, her cultivation speed was the greatest.

Nanfeng Guhong actually felt somewhat unexpected from Qin Wentianʼs visit. After that adjudication battle, an assassination attempt was carry out against Qin Wentian. Soon after that, Qin Wentian was rumored to have entered closed-door seclusion and didnʼt appear for over ten years. To think that he would actually appear now in the Southern Phoenix Clan.

”Wentian pays my respects to senior Guhong.” Qin Wentian bowed slightly. Nanfeng Guhong stared at Qin Wentian as her eyes gleamed with sharpness. A powerful immortal sense gushed out and surrounded Qin Wentian.

”You actually broke through to the immortal king realm?” Nanfeng Guhong was truly shocked. How long has this young man cultivated for? During the adjudication battle, he was only at the ninth-level of immortal-foundation. But he only took slightly over ten years to break through to the immortal king realm?

Back then, when Qin Wentian first came to the Southern Phoenix Clan, he and Nanfeng Yunxi were both at the first-level of immortal-foundation. Only how many years has it been, and this young man has already become an immortal king. Such a cultivation speed was simply unfathomably fearsome.

Nanfeng Yunxi and Nanfeng Shengge both also stared at Qin Wentian in shock. Before this, they already faintly sensed that there was some minor transformation about Qin Wentian. But at their current cultivation level, they werenʼt able to tell the difference. Hence, they were both shocked when they heard what Nanfeng Guhong had said.

Qin Wentian was actually already an immortal king expert.

The cultivation speed of this fellow was simply inconceivable.

”I had some good fortune and lucky opportunities.” Qin Wentian spoke. The Darknorth Immortal Mountain was truly a lucky opportunity for him. He didnʼt die in the forbidden ground and met an undying freak who constantly pressured him to improve.

”Seems like the rumors are false, you are not in closed-door seclusion inside the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, but went out to roam the places in the immortal realms far from the eastern regions to temper yourself instead.” Nanfeng Guhong laughed, but she was somewhat shocked in her heart.

This brat was the same cultivation level as Nanfeng Yunxi back then. They encountered each other and got acquainted in the city of ancient emperors. At that time, he was only at the seventh-level of Celestial Phenomenon. By calculating from there, Qin Wentianʼs cultivation speed was truly heaven-defying. He managed to reach the immortal king realm by cultivating for less than 200 years.

Also, whatʼs more interesting was that the people around him all also had extremely fast cultivation speed. For example, people like Nanfeng Yunxi stood side by side with him in the past but now, Qin Wentian had broken off from the pack and was leading them. Heʼs gradually becoming a leader of this generation.

”Is there anything you need our help with?” Nanfeng Guhong also didnʼt ask anything further. She silently already decided that this young man was someone worth the Southern Phoenix Clan befriending.

After the appearance of the sacred academy, the servant of Ancient Emperor Yi displayed his shocking strength. Huge commotions arose in the eastern regions, the demon tribes of the western regions were moving silently as well. As for the three great clans of the southern regions, the Jiang Clan recently produced a batch of outstanding juniors, and the Ying Clan grew increasingly overbearing. From many angles, a period of chaos might descend upon the immortal realms soon as a brand new era unfolds.

Although right now Qin Wentian wasnʼt of much use, he was already influencing the situation in the eastern regions directly. To protect him, many peak powers engaged in an emperor-ranked battle and there was no doubt that his potential would cause him to shine brightly in the immortal realms. Considering all the factors, Nanfeng Guhong believed that in the future if Qin Wentian could become one of those fabled ones in the legends with a chance of becoming an ancient emperor, their relationship with him now would surely affect their clanʼs future.

”Thereʼs no need to, my purpose here today is really just to pay a visit to senior, as well as saying hi to Yunxi and Shengge. After this, I will leave straight away.” Qin Wentian shook his head and smiled. ”Thereʼs also one more thing. Wentian will remember the acts of gratitude the Southern Phoenix Clan had given me. In the future, I will definitely repay you all.”

These words might sound cliche, but they were extremely important to both Qin Wentian and the Southern Phoenix Clan. Why did the Southern Phoenix Clan help him? Was it really only because of his connection with Nanfeng Yunxi? Clearly, it wasnʼt a factor sufficient enough to influence their decision. Hence, he wanted to make things clear to them as well, by telling them that he would remember their kindness.

In addition, given how quickly he had broken through to the immortal king realm, there was naturally some weight behind those words.

”Thereʼs no need to be so polite. The Southern Phoenix Clan will always treat you as a friend.” Nanfeng Guhong calmly spoke.

”Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded. ”After meeting senior and Yunxi, my wish for coming here is fulfilled. I shall bid farewell then.”

”Yunxi, send Wentian away.” Nanfeng Guhong spoke. Nanfeng Yunxi nodded her head. She and Nanfeng Shengge walked together with him and didnʼt really attempt to make him stay further. Since Qin Wentian decided to leave, he must have something important he needed to do.

After they left, many people appeared around Nanfeng Shengge. Qin Wentian knew of their existences, but there was no need to hide his words even before them.

”This brat actually entered the immortal king realm so quickly. His potential is truly terrifying.”

”Indeed. No wonder the Evergreen Immortal Emperor would agree to him pursuing his daughter. Also, this must be the reason why the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord was willing to support him with his full strength, as well as that mysterious Emperor Yu that is constantly on his side.”

”What should we do?” Someone turned to Nanfeng Guhong.

”In the future, our Southern Phoenix Clan should give him even more support.” Nanfeng Guhong replied. ”We have to pay attention to the commotion in the eastern regions.”

”Just for a talented junior, our clan might need to face many terrifying enemies. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?” Someone asked in a low voice.

”The great roc rises with the wind, soaring up to the nine heavens with ease.” Nanfeng Guhongʼs silhouette flashed, disappearing after leaving behind this sentence. The eyes of everyone gleamed with sharpness. Seems like Nanfeng Guhong really thought extremely highly of this Qin Wentian, giving him such a high praise.
