  The puppet phoenix arrived at the God Hand Mountain Manor, and everyone dismounted it. Nanfeng Guhong and the Thousand Transformations Immortal Emperor both glanced towards them.

  The Violet Emperor and the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor also turned their gazes over. At this moment, no one spoke although everyone wanted to know what happened within the ancient mountain exactly.

  All the experts from the junior generation landed at different locations. The God Hand Mountain Manor was very vast, hence despite there being many people here, the space didn’t look cramped.

  "Ying Teng." The immortal emperor from the Ying Clan radiated killing intent when he saw the mark of recent injuries on Ying Teng’s body. "What happened in the ancient mountain? What did you all encounter?"

  Everyone turned their gaze onto Ying Teng only to see him hatefully staring at Qin Wentian. He then spoke, "Within the ancient mountain, Ancient Emperor Yi’s old residence is there. Qin Wentian has obtained many treasures."

  As the sound of his voice faded, many terrifying auras descended from the sky, boring down on Qin Wentian. Under that overwhelming pressure, it felt that he would be struck dead if he made any movements.

  "Qin Wentian." The Violet Emperor stared at Qin Wentian. His long robes fluttered in the wind as violet qi gushed around. "The treasures of Ancient Emperor Yi. Do you think you can bear the weight of having them? Hand them all out now."

  "Ying Teng, you are clearly intentionally entrapping Qin Wentian. Shameless." Nanfeng Yunxi had an unsightly expression on her face. This Ying Teng wished to harm Qin Wentian. The amount of pressure on Qin Wentian now was so great that he was perspiring and his entire body was shaking.

  The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord stepped out and appeared beside Qin Wentian. "Everyone is at the immortal emperor level. Don’t you all find that it’s beneath your status by treating a junior who just stepped into the immortal foundation realm this way?"

  "Ying Teng is lying." The disciple from the Heavenly Talisman Realm stated. "Seniors, it’s best that you all understand the situation first before deciding on anything.

  "In that case, explain it to us properly then. Also, where are the people from my Eastern Sage Immortal Sect?" The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor walked closer with an unsightly expression on his face. So many juniors have already exited the ancient mountain but his and the Violet Emperor’s subordinates haven’t appeared.

  Naturally, the young man in the bronze mask whom he wanted to kill, hasn’t appear either. Most probably, the masked young man knew that he was waiting outside and was currently hiding within, not daring to exit. After all, both he and the Violet Emperor saw the masked young man killing Dongsheng Ting and Zi Yunwu.

  "Ying Teng what happened exactly?" The immortal emperor from the Ying Clan asked.

  "Very simple. Ying Teng was humiliated by Qin Wentian in the ancient mountain and he is intentionally trying to take revenge." Nanfeng Yunxi replied. She then continued, "Ying Teng. Do you want me to recount the things that happened when you were humiliated?"

  Ying Teng’s expression was ice cold. "Nanfeng Yunxi, no wonder the saying goes that a grown woman can’t be kept at home. As the holy successor, don’t tell me you have fallen in love with him. Do not forget the fact that you won’t be able to marry out of your clan."

  "You……" Nanfeng Yunxi has already removed the puppeted armor. Her beautiful face was filled with coldness.

  "Did I say something wrong? Aren’t the puppeted armors treasures left behind by Ancient Emperor Yi? Didn’t Qin Wentian obtain them in the immortal palace?" Ying Teng icily continued. "For this point, Brother Jiang and the others can all be my witness."

  At this moment, Qin Wentian stepped out. He smiled, "I will personally explain what happened in there to all the seniors."

  "Good. I want to hear what you have to say." The demon emperor, a golden heaven warring condor spoke. The focus of everyone was fixed on Qin Wentian, waiting for him to speak.

  "The matters are extremely simple. In the ancient mountain, the divine essence of God’s Hand could be felt, and one could gain insights and comprehend God’s Hand through it. I, Qin, am extremely fortunate, I managed to raise my understanding of God’s Hand to a new level. After that, all of us were together and found senior Ancient Emperor Yi’s old immortal palace. Over there, there are greater demons guarding the place, these demons should be at the level of demon emperors." Qin Wentian explained, his words causing the hearts of everyone to shake. The old abode of Ancient Emperor Yi was actually within the ancient mountain.

  "In Emperor Yi’s ancient palace, there are three bronze gates that can only be opened by people who have cultivated God’s Hand. Using God’s Hand, I opened the first of the three bronze gates and entered within. The people here all entered there together with me and a small-scale fight broke out between us. I even accidentally injured Brother Ying, which incurred his hatred for me." Qin Wentian smiled, his tone casual with no hint of fire. It was as though he was just playing around with Ying Teng. That calm tone of his actually caused Ying Teng’s heart to boil with the terrifying flames of anger.

  "Within the bronze gate, there were a number of the puppeted armors like the one currently equipped on me lying around, and there’s also a treasury with sixth-ranked divine weapons and immortal treasures within. I believe immortal emperors like seniors wouldn’t place these items in your eyes. After staying there for some days looting the treasures away, I came out after that. The others were still waiting for me outside and they also saw that my current strength was unable to open the second and third gates. Although the treasures within the gates might be even more valuable, I most probably will need to reach the immortal king realm first before I have a chance to open them."

  Qin Wentian laughed and continued, "That’s the summary of what happened exactly. Many people who entered the ancient mountain can bear witness to the truth of my words."

  The immortal emperors glanced at their subordinates, and indeed, none refuted what Qin Wentian had said. It seems like Qin Wentian’s words were true. In that case, wouldn’t he now be the key necessary, the only one with the ability to open up the other treasury gates left behind by Ancient Emperor Yi?

  At this moment, more people could be seen exiting the ancient mountain. These were none other than the subordinates of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor and the Violet Emperor. Their heads were lowered and each of them were shaking with terror as they glanced over. They hurriedly rushed over to the God Hand Mountain Manor and immediately knelt before the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor and the Violet Emperor. At this instant, a fearsome killing intent gushed forth from both the emperors, boring down on these people.

  "Speak." The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor coldly spat a word out.

  "His highness commanded us to hunt down Qin Wentian but we were obstructed by the people from the Southern Phoenix Clan and the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. Nanfeng Yunxi and Qin Wentian fled deeper into the mountain while his highness and Zi Yunwu chased after them. As for what happened later, we completely have no idea at all." Those people prostrated themselves completely before the two emperors as they spoke while trembling with fear. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor had just lost a son while the Violet Emperor lost a nephew.

  "Qin Wentian." The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor took a few steps forward, his killing intent instantly engulfed Qin Wentian. The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord appeared before Qin Wentian, blocking the pressure exuding from the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor.

  "Eastern Sage, your son was trying to hunt me down but he was obstructed by a mysterious man who was proficient in sealing-attribute energy. I was the one fleeing from the hunt. And although I truly wished to kill Dongsheng Ting, his death truly has nothing to do with me. Are you seriously going to blame his death on I, Qin? Aren’t you bullying me a little too much?" Qin Wentian coldly spoke.

  "Who knows if you participated in his death or not?" The Violet Emperor also stepped forward.

  "Senior Violet Emperor, I have never met you before and only heard of your illustrious name. Senior’s son, Zi Daoyang, fought with me fairly in an open match when we were in the City of Ancient Emperors. A true battle among geniuses naturally would have a winner and a loser. I defeated him openly, yet you wanted to blame his death on me, to the extent of ordering Zi Yunwu to hunt me down and now you are also intending to blame Zi Yunwu’s death on me again? Is this Senior Violet Emperor’s extent of magnanimity?"

  "Violet Emperor, you are a peak-level immortal emperor of the immortal realms. Isn’t doing something like this beneath your status?" The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord coldly spoke.

  "BOOM!" The Violet Emperor stepped forward, a terrifying might gushed forth, causing Qin Wentian to retreat explosively while groaning from the pain.

  "Since he is adamant that he is innocent, I will bring him away. After my investigations, I will set him free if he truly has no connection to this." The Violet Emperor spoke with cold arrogance. Stretching his hand out, a terrifying purple-colored palm imprint manifested and grabbed towards Qin Wentian.

  The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord blasted out a palm imprint as a thunderclap smashed into Violet Emperor’s palm imprint. The impact caused a terrifying aftershock to ravage the surroundings. Although these were just casual moves by them, the entire ground quaked violently as though an earthquake was happening.

  "Thousand Transformation, you want to obstruct me?" The Violet Emperor stood with his hands behind his back. Everyone’s gazes were fixed here. The peak-level Violet Emperor was truly tyrannical. Since he wished to bring Qin Wentian away, most probably things weren’t so simple. Right now, Qin Wentian possessed God’s Hand, he was the only one that can open Ancient Emperor Yi’s treasury gates.

  "Senior Violet Emperor, even if you captured me, you would have no way to enter the ancient mountain. Regardless of God’s Hand or the treasures in there, you would still be unable to obtain them." Qin Wentian naturally understood the Violet Emperor’s intentions. Since he dared to come out, it was because he understood this logic. It was useless even if they captured him, the immortal emperors weren’t able to enter the ancient mountain.

  "Hmph." The Violet Emperor coldly snorted as another blast of might gushed over to Qin Wentian, forcing him to continue retreating. Even with the puppeted armor, he was still injured by the intense vibrations.

  "Violet Emperor, mind your actions." Nanfeng Guhong stepped over and appeared before Qin Wentian.

  "Is the Southern Phoenix Clan going to interfere in my matters with Qin Wentian?" The Violet Emperor stared straight at Nanfeng Guhong.

  "Qin Wentian is a friend of the Southern Phoenix Clan." Nanfeng Guhong calmly spoke.

  "Your Southern Phoenix Clan wishes to stow Qin Wentian away for yourselves right?" The demon emperor condor coldly spoke. This trip to the God Hand Mountain Manor only benefited Qin Wentian. All of the others made a wasted trip.

  "You truly have the heart of a vile character." Nanfeng Guhong didn’t even bother to glance at the demon emperor.

  "No matter what, it’s not going to be so easy for Qin Wentian to leave here just like that." The immortal emperor from Ying Clan also spoke.

  "Hehe, everyone are immortal emperor characters, yet you all are willing to go so far to bully this junior. In that case, can I ask seniors what do you all want I, Qin, to do exactly?" Qin Wentian spoke. At the same time, he actually unequipped the puppeted armor. In front of immortal emperors, wearing the armor or not made no difference.

  Qin Wentian kept his eyes straight but he was sending a voice transmission to Emperor Yu. "Might I inquire if Senior’s full name is Qi Yu?"

  Emperor Yu froze when he heard Qin Wentian’s voice. He then lowered his head and drank another mouthful of wine before slowly stepping out.

  "All those who come here are guests." Emperor Yu spoke, causing the gazes of everyone to turn to him. He then slowly continued, "Since you all wished to cultivate God’s Hand, I hid nothing and showed you all the form of it and even opened up the ancient mountain for you guys to venture in. However, none of you succeeded and now, God’s Hand was actually cultivated successfully by a junior. As immortal emperors, you guys actually have the face to stand out to bully him? Isn’t that a little too inappropriate?"

  "Emperor Yu, what do you mean?" The immortal emperor from the Ying Clan asked.

  "I’ve already given all of you a chance. Since none of you are able to cultivate it, and considering how long my God Hand Mountain Manor has entertained you all for, it’s time for everyone to leave." Emperor Yu stared at everyone, issuing an expulsion order.

  At this instant, the immortal emperors had unsightly expressions as they looked at Emperor Yu. Qin Wentian had obtained the secret art God’s Hand, thus becoming the successor of Ancient Emperor Yi. Was Emperor Yu planning to help him out of this prediacrement?
