  Qin Wentian had returned to Lifire City. On the surface, it seemed that the atmosphere was tranquil and fine. In truth, dark undercurrents were already brewing.

  The Jialan Clan was silently making their moves. In fact, even the main pillar of support of the Jialan Clan, Jialan Jiangshan, who had once contended against the Lifire Empyrean for the position of the Lifire Palace Lord, had also secretly arrived at Lifire City. Not only that, a large number of experts had arrived. The Jialan Branch in Lifelong City had also prepared in case there were unexpected situations occurring.

  The Emperor Pavilion had also summoned their core characters back and stationed them in the western city regions of Lifire City. The Emperor Pavilion in the western city regions was extremely large, there was enough space for many experts to stay there. They were ready to react to any unexpected incidents.

  Just like what the Evil Emperor and Xu Li had guessed, a storm was about to come in Lifire City. It was just that the storm was still currently invisible, although the undercurrents of chaos could already be felt.

  After Zhuge Xiong returned to Lifire Palace, he told the Lifire Empyrean about the news that Qin Wentian was about to break through to the next realm. After the Lifire Empyrean heard this, he stared at Zhuge Xiong and asked, “Will Qin Wentian do this intentionally? In truth, he has already received news and knows that we will be acting against him?”


  “I don’t think so. If he had received the news, he wouldn’t have returned to Lifire City.” Zhuge Xiong affirmed. How would Qin Wentian come back to die if he knew about this?

  “This means that it must be true that he is about to break through to the empyrean realm and he’s at a crucial moment of his cultivation.” A terrifying fire flickered in the Lifire Empyrean’s eyes. Although he had been in the empyrean realm for many years, and was confident that he would be able to easily deal with Qin Wentian even if Qin Wentian really broke through, he couldn’t help but feel worried. After all, he had seen Qin Wentian’s combat prowess before. There might be unexpected situations occurring if Qin Wentian really broke through.

  “It’s highly possible. I’m afraid he wouldn’t come out of his seclusion unless he achieved his breakthrough. Palace Lord, should we wait for him?” Zhuge Xiong asked. It was the most suitable if they acted against Qin Wentian when in the Lifire Palace because this was the ultimate territory of the Lifire Empyrean. He could control all the factors here and news wouldn’t leak out no matter how they dealt with Qin Wentian.

  But now, Qin Wentian was in a life-and-death situation and would only come out after he achieved his breakthrough. This then became a problem of choice. Should they wait for him before summoning him to the Lifire Palace, or should they head over to the northern governor’s manor now to act?

  “No, we can’t wait.” A cold light flashed in the Lifire Empyrean’s eyes.

  “Palace lord, the Jialan Clan is in the northern city regions and their influence there is extremely great. Will there be trouble?” Zhuge Xiong felt some trepidation as he asked.

  “Without Jialan Jiangshan, what can the Jialan Clan do against me? Also, no matter how strong the Jialan Clan is, this place is still my Lifire City.” The Lifire Empyrean domineeringly stated. “Also, if they knew that Qin Wentian was the Jialan Monarch’s killer, they would naturally also hope for Qin Wentian’s death. With me acting personally, there shouldn’t be any unexpected accidents occurring.”


  “Your subordinate is useless, I would have to trouble palace lord then.” Zhuge Xiong bowed. This initially was something he ought to handle as the governors of the Lifire Palace were supposed to be his direct subordinates.

  However, right now, a mere northern governor actually required the palace lord to act personally. This clearly meant that he was not strong enough.

  “Qin Wentian is too monstrous, you can’t be blamed for this. Immediately summon the other governors for a meeting to discuss things.” The Lifire Empyrean commanded. Zhuge Xiong nodded and took out his messaging crystal, summoning the other governors to the Lifire Palace. Right now, the number of governors he could summon had dwindled down to a few. Only central governor Sun Qian, eastern governor Lin Ba and southern governor Beauty Xiao remained. Yin Qiu had been crippled, and the northern governor was none other than Qin Wentian.

  The three governors received the orders and brought their vice governors and headed to the Lifire Palace respectively. On the way there, Beauty Xiao kept cursing in her heart. That fellow actually returned?

  She had already warned him that the Lifire Empyrean wanted to kill him yet he still dared to return? Could it be that he really thought that the Lifire Empyrean wouldn’t dare to kill him?

  Right now, the Lifire Empyrean had already personally issued the order to gather the various governors and vice governors. Evidently, it was to deal with Qin Wentian. What was even more infuriating was that she had sent him a message to warn him, yet Qin Wentian actually didn’t even reply her. That insufferable bastard fellow……

  When the three governors reached the Lifire Palace, they discovered that there were already many people here. The subordinates of Grand Governor Zhuge Xiong and some experts and attendants of the Lifire Palace were here as well. There were tens of immortal emperors here. With such a powerful group, it was clear that the Lifire Empyrean was prepared to act personally.

  However, the Lifire Empyrean didn’t appear at all. The governors were led by Grand Governor Zhuge as well as two masked elders of the Lifire Palace. These two elders were the left and right arm of the Lifire Palace. They were extremely mysterious and could be considered the palace’s envoys. Behind them, there were also a number of masked figures at the immortal emperor realm. These were all the secret guards of the Lifire Palace.

  “Grand Governor, is it necessary to gather such a large group of expert just to deal with a single Qin Wentian” Beauty Xiao smiled.

  “Right now, it’s unknown how many hidden experts there are in the northern governor’s manor. We have to capture the Evil Emperor and the others first and if they dare to resist, kill them all directly. No unexpected accidents are allowed to happen.” Zhuge Xiong icily commanded. He then waved his hand, “Move out!”


  As the sound of his voice faded, this big group of experts directly rushed towards the northern governor’s manor, the two envoys led the masked experts separately, they didn’t travel together with Zhuge Xiong and the rest. One party was moving in the light, the other in the dark. They were prepared to finish Qin Wentian off.

  Beauty Xiao understood the Lifire Empyrean’s character. Since he could sit in the palace lord’s position, he was definitely an extremely decisive and ruthless individual. Since he decided to do this, he would go all the way to prevent any sources of future trouble. Qin Wentian was someone the Realmlord had taken notice of. If he killed Qin Wentian under the circumstances that there is no evidence, things would be extremely troublesome. If the Realmlord somehow learned of this and became unhappy, things would be extremely disadvantageous for him, the Lifire Palace Lord.

  This group were made up of immortal emperors, not a single immortal king could be seen within it.

  Currently, the people of Lifire City had no idea what was going on. They were leading their lives as usual or were cultivating alone, transacting treasures, drinking and chatting, or idling the time away.

  Things were the same in the northern city regions too. Everything was normal, there didn’t seem to be any different from usual.

  “Did you guys know that lord governor has returned?” The people of the northern governor’s manor were discussing.

  “Yeah, I’ve heard about it. Lord governor has always been extremely mysterious about his movements. I heard that despite him having returned, he had never appeared out in public inside the manor to see the subordinates at all.”


  “I heard that during the second day after lord governor returns, the grand governor Zhuge Xiong came by, seeking to meet him immediately as though there was something extremely urgent. However, he was stopped by vice governor Xu Li. I wonder what has happened.”


  “What else can there be? Don’t you know what sort of character our Governor Qin is? Although Zhuge Xiong is the Grand Governor, so what of it? In front of our lord governor, he still doesn’t have any capacity to be arrogant.” That person spoke with pride, filled with respect and reverence for Qin Wentian.

  Although Qin Wentian has been extremely low profile these years, he was simply too special. Every deed he chose to do, would always be a major deed that can shake the entire city.

  Just as they were speaking, terrifying fluctuations could suddenly be felt from the air. The clouds rolled and a moment later, a stifling pressure bore down on all of them.

  “What’s going on?” The crowd frowned.

  “What happened?” All of them inclined their heads. The pressure grew stronger and stronger and in a short instant, the terrifying pressure had already enveloped the entire governor’s manor as many experts descended from the sky, all of them immortal emperors.

  Also, the man in the lead was actually the grand governor Zhuge Xiong.

  At this moment, everyone in the governor’s manor felt their hearts trembling. They understood that a major matter was going to happen. A heaven-shaking major matter!

  The entire governor’s manor instantly turned into chaos. Also, in the surroundings of the governor’s manor, everyone here also felt the sense of pressure pressing down on them. When they saw the experts descending from the sky, all of them felt shocked in their hearts.

  After descending, the experts all stood at different locations. Zhuge Xiong stepped out and spoke loudly, “Northern Governor Qin Wentian. Come out now.”


  Nobody replied to him. Within the governor’s manor, the Evil Emperor, Xu Li and their subordinates appeared. They looked into the air and when they saw the many experts arrayed against them, they understood that the storm had come. Although they had been expecting it, they still didn’t expect that the storm would come so fast.

  “Governor Qin is in seclusion. Grand Governor, what do you mean by this?” Xu Li asked.

  Zhuge Xiong’s expression was solemn, icy to the extreme. He continued, “Qin Wentian has broken the palace’s rules and his crime is unpardonable. The palace lord is summoning him to the Lifire Palace for questioning, including all the vice governors and attendants of the northern governor’s manor.”


  Even now, Zhuge Xiong still wanted to bring them all back to the Lifire Palace and quietly settle things.

  The gaze of the Evil Emperor and Xu Li froze. Did they want to capture all of them in one go, bringing all the vice governors and attendants away? Did the Lifire Empyrean wish for the core characters of the northern governor’s manor to vanish completely?

  Countless people felt their hearts shaking. The Lifire Empyrean wanted to capture the northern governor Qin Wentian? What the hell was going on exactly?

  “I don’t understand grand governor’s meaning.” The eyes of the Evil Emperor shone with a jade-green light as he coldly spoke.

  “You will know after you come back with me to the Lifire Palace.” Zhuge Xiong’s immortal sense gushed forth. His eyes glanced towards the courtyard Qin Wentian was in. A moment later, he punched out, causing his fist light to cover the heavens, directly tearing through everything. Thunderous rumbling sounds rang out as the buildings in the surroundings collapsed, causing clouds of dust to rise up into the sky. A sturdy-looking grand cultivator formation appeared in the middle of the ruins and a white-robed figure could be seen sitting cross-legged within it.

  This white-robed figure was naturally none other than Qin Wentian!

  At this moment, Qin Wentian inclined his head. His eyes were like sharp swords, shooting across the distance, terrifying to the extreme. With a single glance, Zhuge Xiong felt his entire body shivering. At this moment, he actually felt as though he was facing against a divinity. It was like he was matching gazes with an invincible existence.

  “Has the time finally arrived?” Qin Wentian’s gaze was extremely terrifying as he slowly rose into the air. He has been waiting for this moment for a very long time!
