Luoshen Clan of the Desolate Region. This name was branded in Qin Wentian's mind.
But right now, he had to temporary place this aside. At the Heavenheart Mirror's region, Qin Wentian brought that crippled world overlord there. His eyes were cold to the extreme as he directly headed for Longyuan Haoyu's direction.
Longyuan Haoyu naturally saw Qin Wentian. He also saw that world overlord whose cultivation base was crippled, and Mo Qingcheng who was safe and sound beside Qin Wentian.
His eyes narrowed, flashing with coldness. His plan actually failed, what a trash that pathetic world overlord was? There was no other world overlord in Qin Wentian's residential palace, yet this lackey of his still failed and was even captured? Now seeing how Qin Wentian was rushing over to him, it was clear that his lackey has already betrayed him.
At this moment, a world overlord walked towards the Heavenheart Mirror and was prepared to display his world heart. Qin Wentian's gaze turned over and spoke in a clear voice, "Sir, can you wait for a moment? I have something I want to say."
"Mhm?" That world overlord glanced at Qin Wentian before he nodded, "Sure."
"Many thanks." Qin Wentian nodded to express his gratitude. After that, he turned and faced the crowd, "I'm the Qingcheng Realmlord of the Mystic Region and came here to attend the Convention of the Myriad Realms due to receiving an invitation. I heard that world overlords can bring their family and friends to the Time Realm and there wouldn't be any danger. If they stay in the residential palace, no one would disturb them but today, there was actually someone who went to the residential palace I picked and forcibly abducted my wife. If it wasn't for the fact that my wife has a protective treasure on her, the consequences would surely be dire. Right now in the surroundings, there are many seniors present. Junior wishes to ask what would the punishment of the one who broke the convention's rules be?"
The eyes of many people gleamed with sharpness as they stared at the crippled world overlord behind him. An expert from a major power then spoke, "Isn't his cultivation base already crippled? Since he was captured by you, you have the right to punish him as you see fit."
"Many thanks senior. This junior will naturally handle things well. It's just that this man was acting on orders of someone else." Qin Wentian spoke.
"Oh?" Somebody saw that Qin Wentian was facing the direction where the people of the Dragon Pool Manor were at. Was it somebody from the Dragon Pool Manor?
The Qingcheng Realmlord, the Dragon Pool Manor.
Those who knew about the grudge between the Heaven Immortal Tower and the Qingcheng Realmlord instantly understood some things. Seems like someone in the Dragon Pool Manor was unhappy about the Qingcheng Realmlord and wanted to punish him.
"Who is it?" That person asked.
"Just speak freely." Qin Wentian glanced at the crippled world overlord. That world overlord's aura was clearly extremely weak. He stared at Longyuan Haoyu as his eyes flashed with a venomous light. It was none other than Longyuan Haoyu who gave the order, causing him to be in this situation now. To a lofty and arrogant world overlord, what did it mean now that he has lost his cultivation base? He was clearly already a cripple.
"Longyuan Haoyu, why did you ask me to do that?" The crippled world overlord had a glacial expression on his face. Longyuan Haoyu merely calmly glanced at him and replied quietly, "Do we know each other?"
His words caused Qin Wentian's expression to freeze. After that, Longyuan Haoyu glanced at him and spoke, "He was the one who broke the rules. It's fine that you have crippled him but why are you using this opportunity to frame me?"
Clearly, Longyuan Haoyu wouldn't admit this. He had already thought of the consequences when he did this. It was fine if everything worked out, Qin Wentian's woman would be in his hand and this lackey would naturally not dare to disclose anything. But if things didn't work out, he would simply claim that he doesn't know anything.
"You..." That world overlord turned pale, his finger that was pointing at Longyuan Haoyu was shaking in anger. But right now, he had no aura had all, he was just like a decrepit old man that was about to die.
"We have a witness here. Many people already know of the grudge between the Qingcheng Realmlord and Longyuan Haoyu. Back then, Qin Wentian brought a serving girl away from the Heaven Immortal Tower and that serving girl was one of Longyuan Haoyu's women who was arranged to work in the Heaven Immortal Tower. This is Longyuan Haoyu's motive for revenge. I can be a witness for the Qingcheng Realmlord. How should we punish Longyuan Haoyu? Can everyone give some suggestions?" Cao Tian already knew Longyuan Haoyu would deny this before he came but he still stepped out to speak.
"Haha." Longyuan Haoyu laughed loudly. He stared at Cao Tian, "Senior Cao Tian's relationship is so good with the Qingcheng Realmlord. In addition to senior Old Ghost, Ten Miles Inn's boss and Phoenix. Just nice, there are a total of five of you. Before this, the robbery of my Heaven Immortal Tower was done by you all, right? I believe it should be so. Most probably, you guys targeted my tower for the sake of helping Qin Wentian to take revenge, right?"
Cao Tian and the other four started, they didn't expect Longyuan Haoyu to actually manage to guess it. Seems like they were too careless.
His gaze stared straight at Longyuan Haoyu as Cao Tian spat out a single world."Right."
Cao Tian didn't deny it, he instantly admitted to the fact.
"Brother Qin is my brother. The Heaven Immortal Tower is too brazen when it does things, insulting a valuable customer. Can't we even teach a serving girl a lesson? To think that the Heaven Immortal Tower actually gave out a promise using a treasure to tempt bounty hunters to capture Brother Qin. I naturally have to help him vent out these unhappy emotions. Hence, I suggested to rob the Heaven Immortal Tower. I dare to admit what I've done. What about you?" Cao Tian stared at Longyuan Haoyu.
"Senior Cao is as expected of someone from the Cao Clan, directly admitting that you are a bandit with no trepidation at all, robbing my Heaven Immortal Tower." Longyuan Haoyu coldly laughed."As for what you said, my reply is this. If I was the one who suggested this, I would admit it too. But I truly don't know who this crippled world overlord is."
"As expected of a world overlord. What good endurance." Qin Wentian coldly stared at Longyuan Haoyu. Although Longyuan Haoyu now knew that they were the ones behind the robbery, he was still so calm and refused to admit what he has done.
"Brother Cao. You guys have to give a reply to us regarding the robbing of our Heaven Immortal Tower." An elder of Longyuan Haoyu spoke. Although the treasures in the Heaven Immortal Tower were only a small portion of the Dragon Pool Manor's wealth, this act was equivalent to smacking their faces. In addition, Cao Tian even admitted in public that he was the one behind it. Did he even have their Dragon Pool Manor in his eyes?
"What reply?" Cao Tian coldly spoke."Just with the things your Heaven Immortal Tower has done, so what even if I rob it? Don't tell me you want me to cut my head off? In fact, your Dragon Pool Manor should properly discipline the junior generations. How embarrassing, daring to do something yet having no guts to admit it."
"How tyrannical." Many people had expressions of interest on their faces when they saw this conflict. As expected of Cao Tian from the Cao Clan. So I robbed your Heaven Immortal Tower but what can you do to me? He was the robber yet he spoke so boldly and confidently as though justice was on his side. Where would you be able to find such a bandit? And his reasoning behind it was for the sake of venting unhappiness for his brother, as though his actions were backed by righteousness.
"A reply does indeed need to be given." At this moment, Qin Wentian suddenly spoke, his words causing Cao Tian to start. Has this fellow become silly, he Cao Tian, has already taken responsibility for the robbery but Qin Wentian wanted to admit to it too?
Only to see Qin Wentian staring at Longyuan Haoyu as he continued, "I did participate in the robbery as well, but it's true that your tower did cause bounty hunters to capture me. Now, you even sent someone to act against my wife. Since this is the case, seeing that the convention is about world overlords contending against each other, displaying their prowess, why don't you Longyuan Haoyu have a life-and-death battle against me to settle the grudge? Do you dare to?"
"Interesting." The surrounding experts all laughed. Qin Wentian actually publicly challenged the young genius world overlord of the Dragon Pool Manor, Longyuan Haoyu. Also, he requested for a life-and-death battle.
In that case, would Longyuan Haoyu accept the challenge?
The fact that the Qingcheng Realmlord was a transcendent-level world overlord has already been proven. He could effortlessly insta-kill three world overlords. But since Longyuan Haoyu was known as a young genius of the Dragon Pool Manor, how would he be weak?
In addition, just like what Qin Wentian has said, although the convention wasn't a direct competition between world overlords, the purpose of it was truly to let them contend against each other so the major characters could see the world overlord's talent. At the end, there would be people obtaining heaven-defying fortune and would be able to join peak powers of the Mystic Region. There would also be people obtaining treasures or even having a chance to study under a heavenly deity.
In the convention, conflict was inevitable. Right now, this Qingcheng Realmlord took the initiative to challenge Longyuan Haoyu. If Longyuan Haoyu refused, that would be equivalent to smacking the Dragon Pool Manor's face.
Others would mock him, saying that the young genius world overlord of the Dragon Pool Manor has always been arrogant yet he didn't even dare to accept the challenge of a random world overlord who came from elsewhere?
A transcendent-level world overlord naturally was a fearsome opponent, and Qin Wentian did insta-kill three world overlords in a battle before. Longyuan Haoyu himself was hesitating but when he saw countless gazes of major characters staring at him, he knew that he had to accept this challenge no matter what.
"You have courage!" Cao Tian silently praised Qin Wentian. Leaving aside victory or defeat, by Qin Wentian wanting to take Longyuan Haoyu's life by means of a challenge battle, was already something extremely courageous. He wanted to kill Longyuan Haoyu in the face of the Dragon Pool manor.
"I accept your challenge." Longyuan Haoyu coldly spoke, accepting the challenge.
Qin Wentian soared into the air, Longyuan Haoyu also walked out. The eyes of the world overlords and major characters in the surroundings all focused on them, including the Heavenly Talisman Realmlord. He was somewhat surprised, Qin Wentian actually dared to challenge the Dragon Pool Manor? Although Qin Wentian killed the Lifelong Realmlord, but he has just became a world overlord recently, right? How strong could he be?
"Right now, since the two of you want to battle, why don't you two fight in the zone of the Heavenheart Mirror where its reflection could shine on the two of you? You guys can display your heavenheart mandates and display your talent." In the air, an immensely powerful world overlord from a major power calmly spoke. Longyuan Haoyu nodded, "Right."
It was clear that the person who spoke had an extraordinary status.
His silhouette flashed and entered the reflection zone of the Heavenheart Mirror. Qin Wentian entered there as well. At the peak of this resplendent mountain, the two of them faced each other. This would be the first battle in the Convention of the Myriad Realms. Also, everyone in the Time Realm would be able to witness this battle.
With an intention of his will, Longyuan Haoyu caused the colors of the sky to change. Incomparably terrifying ripples manifested around him, they then transformed into rings of light that enveloped him protectively. In an instant, it felt as though this entire piece of sky became his protector and at this moment, a bright beam of light shot out from the Heavenheart Mirror.
"A defensive-type heavenheart mandate." Everyone silently mused when they saw this scene.
Longyuan Haoyu stretched out his hand again and grabbed out in the air. A supremely strong power descended, crushing everything. Another beam of light shot out from the Heavenheart Mirror, like a bolt of lightning arcing through the Time Realm.
However, things weren't concluded yet. Longyuan Haoyu continued to display the power of his heavenheart mandates until the fifth beam of light shot out from the Heavenheart Mirror. This caused the eyes of many people to involuntarily narrow. As expected of a young genius world overlord from the Dragon Pool Manor.
"Can you top that?" Longyuan Haoyu coldly spoke, staring at Qin Wentian. Although the number of heavenheart mandates one comprehended couldn't represent one's strength, it could still be a representation of one's comprehension abilities. If he comprehended more heavenheart mandates compared to Qin Wentian, he would naturally feel much more confident about their challenge battle!
