Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The major character from the Ziwei Divine Court stared at Qin Wentian’s figure. He didn’t expect that Qin Wentian would actually be able to kill the Dragon Pool Manor Lord. When they fought earlier, there seemed to be some treasure in his body, releasing that terrible light. From there, his strength was greatly boosted, he channelled his time stop ability and killed the Dragon Pool Manor Lord in a single strike.

A young supreme genius world overlord that has cultivated for less than a thousand years actually managing to kill a hegemonic-level world overlord? What did this mean?

This meant that Qin Wentian has extremely great potential, he might be able to become a heavenly deity. His talent wasn’t inferior to Jian Junlai of the past at all.

However, he didn’t choose the Ziwei Divine Court, he chose the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy instead.

If one had to say that Qin Wentian made a mistake, this should be his only mistake. If he was willing to occupy the position of a constellation lord, the Ziwei Divine Court would surely be willing to nurture him at the same level as they did for Yue Changkong.

Yue Changkong’s eyes abruptly narrowed, flashing with coldness. How could this be? This result has spoiled his plan. He initially thought that today would be Qin Wentian’s death date, yet Qin Wentian managed to give everyone a surprise. He killed the Dragon Pool Manor Lord in a fair battle. In this case, he no longer had any excuse to make Qin Wentian stay behind.

The people of the Donghuang Clan and Donghuang Ying froze there. Donghuang Ying clenched her fists tightly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable because Qin Wentian was the victor.

In the direction of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, that major character revealed a smile on his face. Qin Wentian was as expected of a successor of a godking.

Luoshen Lei’s beautiful eyes revealed a radiant smile. Her elder brother was truly an incomparable character. His opponent would no longer be someone of Yue Changkong’s standard. It was the son of the heavens of the Heaven Region. That was then his destined opponent.

She grew more and more confident that Qin Wentian would surely be able to reach that step, just like what her father believed.

“I submit completely.” Ten Miles Springwind speechlessly spoke. Qin Wentian was even able to do this?

“Haha, Old Ghost, are you able to win against Brother Qin?” Cao Tian laughed as he stared at Old Ghost beside him. Old Ghost narrowed his eyes and didn’t reply. Phoenix also felt many emotions in her heart. Qin Wentian was too outstanding. Back then when they made friends with Qin Wentian, they didn’t expect him to be so outstanding to this extent.

Seems like this friend of theirs was born extraordinary. In the future, Qin Wentian would surely be a legendary character.

This was also the thoughts of many world overlords in the surroundings. For this convention, before this, many felt that Yue Changkong was the most dazzling character. But now, Qin Wentian’s achievements should already be enough to surpass Yue Changkong. If it wasn’t enough that he had defeated Yue Changkong, what about him defeating a hegemonic-level world overlord, the Dragon Pool Manor Lord?

Qin Wentian’s countenance was as calm as ever. He glanced at the other world overlords of the Dragon Pool Manor. There were still many powerful characters in the Dragon Pool Manor, he wouldn’t spare any of them. Killing intent flickered in his eyes, those world overlords all felt their hearts trembling when they saw this, as their countenances paled.

Although they were superior in terms of numbers, the determinant of the victory of a battle would never be the number of participants. This was especially so for experts at the world overlord level. Qin Wentian could already kill the Dragon Pool Manor Lord using the power of his world heart and innate heavenheart mandate. In that case, who among the experts from the Dragon Pool Manor would be able to contend against him?

“Do you all want to suicide, or do you all want me to act personally?” Qin Wentian coldly asked. Those experts turned their gazes to the major character of the Ziwei Divine Court. Right now, only the Ziwei Divine Court could save their Dragon Pool Manor. But at this moment, that major character of the Ziwei Divine Court had fallen silent. Before this, he already said that as long as the Luoshen Clan doesn’t interfere, the Ziwei Divine Court wouldn’t interfere in this private grudge between Qin Wentian and the Dragon Pool Manor. Now, if he spoke for them again, wouldn’t that be equivalent to smacking his own face?

In addition, it was true that he no longer had any reason to interfere in this matter.

“Young Master Yue.” A world overlord glanced at Yue Changkong, causing him to furrow his brows. Yue Changkong continued, “Qingcheng Realmlord, you started a massacre in the Mystic Region today and you have already gone too far. It’s time for you to stop.”

Qin Wentian coldly glanced at him, “If you want to fight, you can step out now. If not, just shut your mouth.”

There was nothing more humiliating than such a direct insult. You, Yue Changkong, didn’t even have the qualifications to interrupt.

Yue Changkong’s expression was somewhat unsightly but he ultimately didn’t say anything.

Upon seeing his silence as well as sensing the killing intent in Qin Wentian’s eyes, that world overlord from the Dragon Pool Manor spoke, “Qin Wentian, I have something I want to say.”

“If you wish to beg for mercy, you might as well save your words.” Qin Wentian icily replied.

“The reason why our Dragon Pool Manor would have today, is all because of Yue Changkong.” That world overlord suddenly spoke, his words causing a terrifying coldness to flash through Qin Wentian’s eyes. Back then, the Dragon Pool Manor used such a radical method to deal with him, causing him to feel somewhat strange. Could it be that there was some hidden reason behind this?

Yue Changkong’s countenance instantly turned extremely sharp. He spoke hurriedly, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Yue Changkong, although you are a disciple of the Ziwei Divine Court, however since you still want to remain neutral at such a moment after harming my Dragon Pool Manor, I have no choice but to reveal this to everyone.” That world overlord spoke, “Back then because Yue Changkong was accepted by a heavenly deity as a disciple, our Dragon Pool Manor went to the Donghuang Clan’s residential palace to offer our congratulations. Not only our Dragon Pool Manor, many other major powers headed there as well. Yue Changkong then intentionally looked for our manor lord for a conversation and hinted to us about our grudge with Qin Wentian. The manor lord initially had some trepidations because of the Luoshen Clan and the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy but Yue Changkong said that the Luoshen Clan was from the Desolate Region and had no right to interfere in this. And with the Ziwei Divine Court present, the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy wouldn’t do anything either. He even hinted that in the future, the Dragon Pool Manor might become a vassal force of the Ziwei Divine court.”

“Yue Changkong.” Qin Wentian’s gaze turned extremely cold. In that case, back then Yue Changkong hadn’t merely showed his killing intent when he challenged Qin Wentian. Even after he became a heavenly deity’s disciple and joined the Ziwei Divine Court, Yue Changkong was as sinister as ever, unwilling to show Qin Wentian, the true successor of the Time King, any mercy at all. He hinted to the Dragon Pool Manor to kill him. In that case, Beiming Youhuang who was almost killed by that arrow before, was all because of Yue Changkong. He was the mastermind behind everything.

Yue Changkong’s despicableness had already exceeded the limit to which Qin Wentian could endure.

“As expected of a vile character.” Cao Tian coldly spoke. “I suggest for the Ziwei Divine Court to properly gauge this man’s character.”

Luoshen Lei also stared at Yue Changkong in a very cold manner.

They all believed the words of this world overlord from the Dragon Pool Manor because it was true that today, the Ziwei Divine Court acted to stop the Luoshen Clan. Also, for that assassination of Qin Wentian back then, although the Dragon Pool Manor knew that they would offend both the Luoshen Clan and the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy by doing so, the manor lord still chose to do it. How queer. But if Yue Changkong had hinted and promised that the Dragon Pool Manor could become a vassal force of the Ziwei Divine Court, everything fits then.

“Do you know what are the consequences of sullying the reputation of a disciple from the Ziwei Divine Court?” Yue Changkong coldly stared at the world overlord. He naturally wouldn’t admit to this.

However, Donghuang Ying’s beautiful eyes were staring at him, she recalled the secretive scenes between Yue Changkong and the Dragon Pool Manor. Back then when she inquired, Yue Changkong told her it was nothing. After that, the Dragon Pool Manor actually moved to assassinate Qin Wentian. She had a faint feeling that this was because of Yue Changkong.

Why did her fiancee want to kill Qin Wentian so much? Was it because of his defeat to Qin Wentian which led to Yue Changkong’s jealousy?

She felt somewhat unwilling to believe this. She only supported Yue Changkong because she felt that he was more outstanding. This was why she was biased to him and had given up on Qin Wentian’s friendship, agreeing to Yue Changkong’s marriage proposal. Even if Yue Changkong had been defeated then, she still believed that Yue Changkong who was the Time King’s successor, would surely be even more outstanding in the future and would cleanse this humiliation of defeat. She didn’t wish to accept the fact that Yue Changkong might be jealous of Qin Wentian.

“Now things have come to this state, our Dragon Pool Manor suffered a calamity because of your words yet you still pretend to act neutral? Only speaking a single sentence? Since this is the case, I shall publicly announce this matter. There’s no need for you to threaten me, the Dragon Pool Manor is already in this state, we don’t care what the Ziwei Divine Court wants to do to us.” That world overlord’s state of heart felt like dead ashes. They weren’t willing to keep this a secret anymore since they were going to die.

“I believe your words.” Qin Wentian spoke. “I conducted a massacre because your Dragon Pool Manor went too overboard in your actions. Not only did you want to kill me, you even wanted to target my friends and family. But since the mastermind behind this was Yue Changkong, I can give you all an opportunity. I’m willing to spare the rest of you but the prerequisite is that you all have to make a blood vow that none of you can move against anyone around me. You can hate me, you can kill me, I will welcome you with open arms. But if you cross my bottom line, I shall cause the Dragon Pool Manor to be cleansed by all your blood.”

Qin Wentian’s words caused the Dragon Pool Manor’s experts to see a strand of hope. It was true that this grudge was impossible to forget. But Qin Wentian had said that they can still look for him to take revenge as long as they have the ability to. It was just that they are not allowed to touch anyone around him.

“Are all of you willing to accept this?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Since you have such spirit, we are naturally willing to make the vow and agree to your terms. If we act out in revenge against anyone around you, Qin Wentian, our Dragon Pool Manor shall be exterminated completely.” A world overlord from the Dragon Pool Manor instantly vowed. After that, the other world overlords from the Dragon Pool Manor all respectively expressed their attitude too. Qin Wentian could be considered as showing mercy. After he knew the mastermind was Yue Changkong, he actually was willing to spare them. How could these world overlords not be satisfied?

Naturally, they wouldn’t be thankful for Qin Wentian. The grudge between them would still remain. If they had the ability to do so, they would surely kill him.

“Senior, can the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy act as a witness for me?” Qin Wentian glanced at that old man from the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy.

“Sure. If in the future the Dragon Pool Manor breaks their promise, the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy will take action.” That major character nodded.

At the doorstep of death, the people from the Dragon Pool Manor found hope. After the others in the manor knew the truth, they didn’t simply hate Qin Wentian, they also hated Yue Changkong. It was logical for Qin Wentian to want revenge because their manor lord targeted people other than him. But everything happened because of Yue Changkong’s instigation and at the very end, he actually chose to step aside and remain neutral.

Qin Wentian’s eyes slowly turned towards Yue Changkong, flickering with killing intent.

He then turned to the major character from the Ziwei Divine Court. “Senior, you should have heard what the Dragon Pool Manor said. In that case, right now, this is a private grudge between me and Yue Changkong. I want a life-and-death battle with you. Senior wouldn’t stop me, right?”

The expression of that major character stiffened. He stared at Qin Wentian and coldly spoke, “What nonsense. The people of the Dragon Pool Manor spun a load of lies because they wanted a chance at survival. How can I take such lies as the truth?”

Right now, Yue Changkong was his senior brother’s disciple, how can his reputation be blackened? This would cause his senior brother’s reputation to be damaged too.

“In that case, senior is planning to shield him from me despite our death grudge?” Qin Wentian asked.

“Qingcheng Realmlord, pay attention to your status.” The major character from the Ziwei Divine Court coldly spoke.

“HAHAHA!” Qin Wentian suddenly began to laugh loudly. “What a good ‘pay attention to your status.’ Clearly, senior is planning to stop me. I naturally wouldn’t dare to act then. It’s just that I have to warn senior about something. Can the Ziwei Divine Court really be so sure that the words uttered by the Godking of Time in the Time Realm, that he was waiting for someone in the future, was directed to Yue Changkong?!”
