Qin Wentian placed the winecup in his hands down. He snorted as he inclined his head, staring at Skymist Hai. His mouth curled into a faint smile but this smile contained an aura as sharp as swords.
"I heard that your highness cultivated for over 300+ years and is now merely at the third-level of immortal-foundation. With your highness’s degree of talent, do you think you can defeat Princess Qing`er or Princess Glaze?" Qin Wentian spoke lightly, in his voice, the tone of a faint mockery could be heard. Skymist Hai was merely at the third-level of immortal foundation despite cultivating for over 300 years. Without a doubt, Princess Qing`er’s cultivation base would overtake him sooner or later. From another perspective, this meant that he completely wasn’t worthy enough to be together with Princess Qing`er or Princess Glaze.
As for wanting the two princesses to dance for him? That’s nothing but a joke.
Regarding this point, many people present all understood. However, this was something which the Skymist Immortal Empire wanted to use as a humiliation tool to demean the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Hence the question of being worthy of the princesses or not, could be ignored. In addition, if the Evergreen Immortal Emperor really choose to send a princess to the Skymist Immortal Empire, being humiliated was already a given. Skymist Hai’s earlier words weren’t that much of an exaggeration.
Hence, although Skymist Hai said those words, although they were incomparably arrogant and impudent, showing disrespect to the two princesses in public, this also made everyone feel how domineering the Skymist Immortal Empire is. It was like they would succeed at all costs, even inviting experts from major powers of all areas over to here to bear witness.
By right, because no one wanted to be implicated, nobody would stand out to berate Skymist Hai. However at this moment, there was actually someone doing so. That single sentence by him was like a slap to Skymist Hai’s face, mocking his inferior talent, making it so that he was an unworthy match to both the princesses.
"Who are you?" Skymist Hai wasn’t angered. He stared at Qin Wentian and coldly asked.
"Who am I is not important." Qin Wentian replied.
"Indeed, that’s not important." Skymist Hai smiled. "In the immortal realms, there are countless people dying or disappearing every day. In fact, they don’t even know how they died. To the vast immortal realms, they are merely insignificant beings. Their disappearance would not be known or noticed by anyone. Just like what I’m asking now, who...are you?"
"Your words are actually right. Leaving aside ordinary people, even princes from immortal empires are referenced by it as well. If they died one day, the vast immortal realms wouldn’t care the slightest about them. This is especially so for those princes who are doomed to mediocrity. Even if they disappeared, no one would regard the news of them vanishing highly. Do you know the reason why? It is because, these people are simply useless. They make no difference having existed or not." Qin Wentian laughed as he drank his wine, seemingly talking to himself. Both their words contained daggers within, in sharp opposition to the other.
The others in the surroundings quietly watched. The people who can be here all have extraordinary statuses. The lowest are the junior generations of immortal emperor-level powers and everyone was staring with interest at Qin Wentian. Since this man dares to cross the prince of the Skymist Immortal Empire verbally, he shouldn’t be an ordinary commoner. Also, considering how he was defending the Evergreen Immortal Empire, he might have some relationship with them. Maybe, he was a member of the royal clan.
Skymist Hai also thought of this point. He stared at Qin Wentian and smiled, "If Princess Qing`er and Princess Glaze married into my Skymist Immortal Empire, they would both become my concubines. What’s so wrong about making them dance for me? Even if I’m a cripple, they would still have to serve me well as a wife right?"
"You truly do indulged in your own wishful thinking." Qin Wentian mocked. "Do you even know your self-worth?"
"The agreement between both empires has nothing to do with my self-worth." Skymist Hai’s eyes turned colder and colder. This Qin Wentian mocked him at every turn, his words were extremely ear-piercing.
"Agreement?" Qin Wentian sarcastically spoke in disdain, "An agreement made by a traitor of the Evergreen Immortal Empire of the previous generation? Your Skymist Immortal Empire wants the Evergreen Immortal Emperor to honor this? Does this mean that for the future, your Skymist Immortal Empire has to honor any agreements made by those from the royal clan from previous generations?"
"This is an agreement between two great immortal empires. Also in the past, the Evergreen Immortal Empire has fulfilled this partially. There are princess characters of the Evergreen Immortal Empire that married into my Skymist Immortal Empire, becoming imperial concubines. Now that the control of the Evergreen Immortal Empire falls to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, could it be that he intends to dishonor this agreement?" Skymist Hai sneered and continued, "As for you, how sharp-tongued you are. I’m of the royal clan from the Skymist Immortal Empire and considered a guest visiting the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Your words to me are filled with disrespect, and you insult the people of my empire as well. Even if I kill you, I believe no one in your Evergreen Immortal Empire would dare to say anything."
"Kill me? Just with your puny abilities?" Qin Wentian laughed as he stared at Skymist Hai. "If you really can kill me, I will just resign myself to my fate."
Staring at the unmasked contempt in Qin Wentian’s smile, Skymist Hai’s countenance turned sharper and sharper. With a wave of his hand, the beautiful dancers on the platform all retreated. Evidently, Skymist Hai had lost all patience to admire their performance at this moment.
"You can truly boast." Skymist Hai calmly spoke, his eyes stared at the surroundings as he continued, "The heroes present here today, there are so many among them stronger than you. You are simply too arrogant. I wonder if there are any friends here willing to teach this man a lesson on my behalf?"
"I have no interest in the sons of ordinary kings and marquises." A young man from the Paragon Sword Sect spoke, his tone as sharp as swords, reflecting the pride in his heart. Evidently, many people here treated Qin Wentian as the son of a noble from the Evergreen Immortal Empire. This must be the reason why he dared to cross Skymist Hai verbally, defending the honor of Princess Qing`er and Princess Glaze.
Those from the Taihua Immortal Dynasty and Sky Demon Palace didn’t say anything, they didn’t seem to be too interested. They were only here to watch a show, and if it was just a simple sparring, they might be interested in it but they clearly had no wish to be dragged into this storm with the Skymist and Evergreen Immortal Empires.
Qin Wentian quietly sat there. At this moment, a figure stood up and walked from a pavilion. The cultivation base of this person was extraordinary - at the peak-level of immortal foundation, exuding a vast aura and radiated an aura of tyrannical might. He was an expert from the Solarsky Mountain, a major power which was within the territory of the Skymist Immortal Empire.
"I will politely remind you not to meddle in things that are not your business." Qin Wentian continued pouring wine. He didn’t even glance at the person who stood up.
The eyes of the expert from the Solarsky Mountain stiffened. He hesitated a moment but still eventually chose to walk towards the direction where Qin Wentian was. His aura gushed forth in waves, and in just an instant, a fearsome fiery qi swept towards Qin Wentian. The atmosphere was scorched from the heat, seemingly about to burn up at any moment.
"Qi Da." Qin Wentian called out. A moment later, a young man from the Battle Saint Tribe beside him put down his wine cup and stood up. His entire body shimmered with light, but his vast immortal might was completely retracted, nobody in the surroundings could sense it. This man had extraordinary control over his strength.
The two of them walked step by step closer to each other. Finally, they met each other in the center. In an instant, a circle of lightning flames sprang out around the two of them, enveloping them within. The destructive fire and lightning shot towards Qi Da, blasting into him, yet all the attacks failed to penetrate the barrier of shimmering light around Qi Da.
The crowd turned their attention over. The aura of the two experts were contained within the circle of lightning flames. The stifling pressure from the aftershocks of their attacks was sufficient to destroy the entire Juxian Tower if the slightest bit leaked out.
"BOOM!" Lightning flashed as the silhouettes of the two experts vanished within the circle and appeared high up in the air. Many people inclined their eyes to stare at the battle, but as they turned their eyes upwards, they only discovered that the light was too blinding. Destructive explosions echoed out loudly in the sky, even the entire space felt like it was about to be blown apart.
Qin Wentian’s eyes didn’t look up in the air. In fact, he didn’t even need to see the battle, he already knew who the winner would be.
And as expected, a scream of misery rang out an instant later. That expert from the Solarsky Mountain had his immortal foundation destroyed as he fell from the air. The other experts from the Solarsky Mountain instantly stood up as their auras gushed forth. Qi Da descended from the sky and stood calmly behind Qin Wentian. It was as though what just happened had nothing to do with him.
As the battle ended, Qin Wentian drained the contents of his wine cup and spoke, "I already warned you not to meddle in things that are not your business."
The experts from the Solarsky Mountain all stepped out. Qi Da’s silhouette flashed, he appeared before Qin Wentian, protecting him. A startling might erupted forth with the force of a hurricane from him. A rumbling sound could be heard in the air, the tiles of the pavillion beneath his feet cracked, and the walls in his surroundings also crumbled to dust from the might he exuded.
"Swish~" A tyrannical aura swept forth. It was the aura of an immortal king from the Solarsky Mountain. The instant he appeared, an overwhelming pressure enveloped Qin Wentian and his group but at this very instant, a thunderous voice boomed out, "Who dares to be so impudent in our Evergreen Immortal Empire?"
As the sound of this voice faded, an imposing figure appeared in the air. He looked directly at the immortal king from the Solarsky Mountain as he asked, "Are you the one creating trouble?"
"Did you all not see that he crippled the immortal foundation of an expert from my side earlier?" That immortal king from the Solarsky Mountain pointed at Qi Da’s opponent. Although this man wasn’t a core disciple, he could still be considered extraordinary. But now, he was crippled just like that.
"Nope, I didn’t see anything." The immortal king from the Evergreen Immortal Empire replied. Evidently, this was bullcrap. He saw everything that happened clearly, including who are the friends of their empire, those who were neutral and those who were not.
"Don’t tell me you guys are intentionally shielding them because they are from the Evergreen Immortal Empire." The expert from the Solarsky Mountain stated.
That immortal king from the Evergreen Immortal Empire stared at Qin Wentian as he asked, "Are you guys from our Evergreen Immortal Empire? Why do I have no idea?"
"Some people will believe what they like to believe." Qin Wentian smiled, his words causing the eyes of everyone present to flash as they stared at Qin Wentian. Since he wasn’t someone from the Evergreen Immortal Empire, he still dared to be so arrogant? For the sake of Princess Qing`er and Princess Glaze, he directly stood in opposition to a prince from the Skymist Immortal Empire?
Among the major powers of the Eastern Regions, there weren’t many who could stand equally against the Skymist Immortal Empire. If Qin Wentian wasn’t from the Evergreen Immortal Empire, it means there was a very high chance that he was from a power weaker than the Skymist Immortal Empire.
If this was the case, the guts of this man was truly great!
Even Skymist Hai’s eyes flashed with an icy smile!
