Ancient Godly Monarch
chapter-1110

"This…" Everyone felt their hearts shaking when they saw the nine elite experts from the Skymist Immortal Empire being beaten up into such a miserable state. These nine juniors from the immortal-foundation experts were immensely strong, easily able to defeat the nine heaven chosen sent up by the Evergreen Immortal Empire earlier. In addition, there was even one among them proficient in the law energy of surrealism. It was clear that he was a demon-level genius specially nurtured by the Skymist Immortal Empire.

However at this moment, they were directly blasted out by the tyrannical attacks and many among them even had their immortal foundations shattered, becoming cripples. Before this, if it wasn't for that eighth-level immortal who used all his strength and blocked their attack for an instant, most probably all nine from the Skymist Immortal Empire would die on the platform.

This battle, wasn't a battle of the same level. The disparity between the two parties was simply too shocking.

Qin Wentian's confidence in them, wasn't some blind arrogance. It was because he knew they truly had the strength.

"What race or tribe are these people from exactly? I've never heard of experts establishing their immortal foundations in the form of divine apes, and have such fearsome combat prowess. At the very least, there is no one like that from the Eastern Regions of the Immortal Realms. Where did the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect recruit them from?" Everyone mused silently but to no avail, they would never be able to imagine the answer.

The last time the Battle Saint Tribe appeared in the immortal realms, was long ago during the era of Ancient Emperor Yi. How many people would still remember them?

The eyes of everyone turned to Qin Wentian only to see Qin Wentian's expression was as cold as ever. He then spoke, "Now, do you believe?"

Skymist Jiang only felt the burning sensation of shame on his face. Before this, he displayed unexcelled arrogance, smacking the face of the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Never in his wildest dreams would he imagine that this Skymist Immortal Empire would be humiliated so badly by a group of immortal-foundation characters from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. How could this be possible?

Evergreen Longhao and the others from the Evergreen Immortal Empire stared at Qin Wentian with hints of complications in their gazes. No one else was clearer than these people regarding Qin Wentian's relationship with their empire. Before this, many marquises and kings were all against Qin Wentian. But they would never have expected that the young man who was intentionally targeted by their descendants from before would be so dominating now, defending their Evergreen Immortal Empire, accomplishing something none of their descendants could do.

What an irony.

"You have truly angered me." Skymist Jiang icily spoke. Those people that were crippled earlier were princes of his Skymist Immortal Empire. They were all elite experts and all of them had extraordinary statuses. Yet now, their immortal foundations were actually shattered.

"Qi Da, get down." Qin Wentian called out. Qi Da and the eight other experts from the Battle Saint Tribe got down the platform. After that, Qin Wentian commanded, "Select nine middle-tier immortal foundation experts to go up."

"I hear and obey." Qi Da nodded. Soon after, another nine experts from the Battle Saint Tribe were selected as they walked up the battle platform.

"I humbly seek Prince Skymist's approval to provide us with more guidance. You can select any nine experts you deem fit as long as they are at the middle-tier of immortal foundation." Qin Wentian indifferently spoke. And when the crowd saw another nine experts from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect going up the platform, their hearts shook once again. Were these nine from the same race or tribe as those who went up earlier?

If they had the same kind of overwhelming combat prowess, most probably no nine immortal-foundation experts from any of those powers currently present, would be able to win against them.

"Kacha!" Skymist Jiang clenched his fists tightly as a cold killing intent gushed forth from him. His eyes were as sharp as swords when he stared at Qin Wentian.

"Regarding the rules of sparring, why are you qualified to set them everytime?" Skymist Jiang spoke in cold arrogance.

Qin Wentian gave a mocking smile. "Before this, how wild and arrogant were you? Now you are actually trying to find reasons to dodge this? Fine then, tell me how you want the rules to be?"

"I want you to come on up the battle platform." Skymist Jiang spoke.

"I said it before that none of your subordinates are worthy to fight against me. If you get Skymist Hai to be my opponent, I might consider it." Qin Wentian replied.

"Are you afraid?" Skymist Jiang mocked.

"Fine, since you want me to go up there so much, I can agree to it. Get another second-level immortal-foundation expert together with Skymist Hai to fight against me with a third-level immortal-foundation expert. If it is like this, the cultivation bases of both sides would be equal." Qin Wentian replied.

"You don't dare to fight alone and even need others to protect you?" Skymist Jiang laughed coldly.

"The arrogant one earlier was you. Now that I've sent nine of my subordinates up the battle platform in accordance to your sparring rules, you are also the one who didn't dare to fight. You suggested to fight me instead, and my request is that Skymist Hai has to be my opponent and now... you are still the one who is trying to dodge." Qin Wentian's voice was as calm as ever. His gaze swept over to the many experts from the Skymist Immortal Empire. "If you want to fight let's fight. If you don't dare to, just scram the fuck out of the Evergreen Immortal Empire. No one has the time to talk so much nonsense with you."

Upon seeing Qin Wentian's domineering attitude, everyone felt as though the conflict wasn't between the Evergreen and Skymist Immortal Empires but was the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect against the Skymist Immortal Empire instead.

But there was no denying that that group of experts from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect were truly so terrifying that it caused people to feel fear and trepidation in their hearts at the prospect of fighting against them.

"Skymist Jiang, before this you and the Paragon Sword Sect both issued a challenge to spar towards my Evergreen Immortal Empire and I didn't even reject them. You also arrogantly stated that you guys would not be as polite from now on, and would go all out. Right now, it is also a simple spar. Just because the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect won a round against your Skymist Immortal Empire, you are actually trying so hard to find a multitude of reasons not daring to accept the challenge? Is this all your Skymist Immortal Empire amounts to?"

Evergreen Longhao naturally wouldn't miss this chance, he grabbed the opportunity to smack the Skymist Immortal Empire's face, venting his breath of anger that was kept suppressed from the events earlier.

"If this is your attitude. I think there's no need to continue wasting time. I'm considering whether or not to 'send' you all away." Evergreen Longhao coldly spoke.

The atmosphere grew more and more awkward. Initially, the Skymist Immortal Empire wanted to join forces with the Paragon Sword Sect to suppress the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Who would have thought that a Qin Wentian would appear and spoil everything?

At this moment, the leading immortal king of this expedition spoke to Qin Wentian, "You are from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, why must you get your sect implicated in this? This agreement only concerns the Skymist and Evergreen Immortal Empires. Has the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect considered the consequences of your actions carefully?"

"I have no intentions to interfere and I can't be bothered with the grudges between the two empires. However, do not mention this so-called agreement and say things like bringing the princesses back to the Skymist Immortal Empire to get married. Or else, this has something to do with me." Qin Wentian coldly spoke.

"What do you mean?" The Paragon Sword Sect's expert continued asking.

"Because, Princess Qing`er of the Evergreen Immortal Empire, is my woman." Qin Wentian stared straight at the other party, his eyes flashing with an a staunch resolve. If Qing`er was at the center of this storm, there was no way for Qin Wentian to stand outside of it.

He would never allow for such a thing to happen. What nonsense agreement was this? Forcing Qing`er into marrying a prince of the Skymist Immortal Empire.

"Ridiculous. Princess Qing`er is bound by the agreement, yet you say that she is your woman? Why have I not heard of this before? What a laughable matter. Evergreen Immortal Empire, do you all agree with his words?" Skymist Jiang mockingly laughed.

"All that he said, is naturally real." A melodious voice suddenly drifted through the air. The eyes of everyone froze, they inclined their heads and stared at the air. Spatial energy fluctuations trembled the atmosphere as a group of experts abruptly appeared. The woman in the lead was as pure as a snow lotus, stirring the hearts and souls of people who saw her.

"What a beautiful woman. Is she Princess Qing`er?" Everyone mused silently, instantly guessing at her identity.

This beautiful woman then slowly walked out. She didn't walk towards Evergreen Longhao but was walking towards Qin Wentian instead.

Qin Wentian stood up. They have not met each other for several years and he missed her terribly. Right now, Qing`er was also at the second-level of immortal foundation, the same level of cultivation as him. Radiating immortal qi, she was even more beautiful than ever. Her beauty can only be described with a single word - transcendent.

Qing`er arrived before Qin Wentian. Her eyes were as cool as ever, but in the depths of those pretty eyes, Qin Wentian could clearly feel the depths of her emotions.

Stretching out his hands, Qin Wentian held on to her ice-like soft and supple hand. She didn't object, allowing Qin Wentian to hold her hand in front of the eyes of everyone. The two of them stood side by side, like a perfect celestial couple together.

"She is my woman. Naturally, this matter has something to do with me." Qin Wentian domineering spoke once again. At this moment, even the people of the Evergreen Immortal Empire pretended not to see anything. It was like they had tacitly agreed to the relationship between Qin Wentian and Qing`er. Most probably, Qin Wentian himself also never imagined such a situation would occur.

Staring at the two of them holding hands, everyone instantly understood why Qin Wentian was so infuriated and why he would go all out to intentionally move against the Skymist Immortal Empire.

He was naturally angered, because the subject being spoken of is none other than the woman he loved!

"BANG!" Skymist Jiang slammed his hand onto the table, shattering it into dust. His long robes fluttered without wind as an extremely cold intent gushed forth from him.

"With the agreement as proof, the Evergreen Immortal Empire actually allowed their princesses to be together with other men. How ridiculous. Could it be you guys don't fear that this would damage the reputation of your princesses?" Skymist Jiang icily spoke. "No matter what relationship Princess Qing`er has with this man, I hope the Evergreen Immortal Empire can handle this matter appropriately. I will immediately invite the other powers of the Eastern Region to carry out the adjudication. Princess Qing`er is going to be married into my clan no matter what."

"A paper tiger barking noisily here. This adjudication you speak of is the truly ridiculous one. In the future if my Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect and the Evergreen Immortal Empire activate an adjudication against the Skymist Immortal Empire wanting you to cede your territories, would you agree to do so if the adjudication is in our favor?" Qin Wentian coldly spoke when he saw Skymist Jiang not intending to give up. "Today, at the battle platform of the imperial palace of the Evergreen Immortal Sect, as long as you, Skymist Jiang, dare to send people up here. I will comply with all battles until your Skymist Immortal Empire scrams out of the Evergreen Immortal Empire."

"Hahaha, Qin Wentian. You are one of the most arrogant brats I've ever encountered in the immortal foundation realm." Skymist Jiang laughed uproariously. He stared at Qin Wentian, "Since things have come to this stage, there's no longer a need to continue with the spar since the Evergreen Immortal Empire refuse to honor the agreement. But since you said that as long as I dare to send people up and you will comply with all battles… Very well, I only need a single battle. I want you to go up the platform personally. If you don't dare to, just stop talking your nonsense."

Skymist Jiang knew that the Battle Saint Tribe's experts under Qin Wentian were extremely powerful. It was disadvantageous to him if he continued the spar. Hence, he directed the challenge towards Qin Wentian.

"Only a single battle?" Qin Wentian release his hold on Qing`er's hand as he smiled at her. "I will end it fast and return swiftly."

"Mhm." Qing`er nodded her head lightly. After that, Qin Wentian slowly walked out as he moved towards the battle platform.

Upon stepping on the platform, Qin Wentian turned his gaze to Skymist Jiang. "Since you want me to come up here and fight so much, I will grant you your wish. However, I'm afraid that you wouldn't be able to accept the ending."

"I can choose anyone from the first to third level of immortal foundation?" Skymist Jiang asked.

"Despicable." Evergreen Longhao's voice was cold. Since this is a solo battle, he should by rights select someone who has the same cultivation as Qin Wentian - the second-level of immortal foundation. However, Skymist Jiang actually intentionally said from the first to third level. This included third-level immortal-foundation elites from his empire. He believed that given how arrogant Qin Wentian was, Qin Wentian would surely accept this. And if he does accept, Qin Wentian would die here today for sure.

"Do as you wish." As expected, Qin Wentian accepted. At this moment, Skymist Jiang's eyes flickered with a cold smile, the gaze he used to look at Qin Wentian with, was like how he was looking at an already dead man!
