Ancient Godly Monarch

In the Ten Miles Inn, Qin Wentian was still hugging Mo Qingcheng. The pain persisted on for a long time and Mo Qingcheng had already fainted into unconsciousness. As for that brilliant glow, it also faded away. Only the pendant around her neck was still shimmering weakly but it no longer radiated any aura, making it seem as though it was just an ordinary pendant.

“What is this exactly?” Qin Wentian stared at the pendant. This was an accessory from the Heaven Immortal Tower but why would it form a resonance with Mo Qingcheng? What has she experienced through the ordeal exactly?

In addition, the phoenix gown earlier had appeared. Was it protecting Mo Qingcheng? And also, what was going on with the resplendent diagram that seemed like a formation? He had no idea about any of this but luckily, all of that has already passed. Mo Qingcheng had only fainted and there didn’t seem to be any major injury to her. After she woke up, Qin Wentian should be able to understand more.

Qing`er quietly stayed at the side, both of them had been waiting for Mo Qingcheng. Mo Qingcheng only awoke during the second day. Her beautiful eyes flashed with a strange light, her entire person seemed to be covered by a layer of light.

“Qingcheng.” Qin Wentian called out when he saw that she was awake.

Mo Qingcheng smiled gently, “I’m fine now.”

“Mhm, that’s good then. Qin Wentian’s worried heart was finally set at ease. His hand gently caressed her face and stared at her tenderly. Qingcheng also smiled radiantly back at him.

“Qingcheng, what happened earlier?” Qing`er walked over and softly spoke.

A bizarre look flashed in Mo Qingcheng’s eyes. She sat up and glanced at the pendant around her neck and with a single thought, the pendant directly entered her skin and left behind a mark there. A wondrous diagram appeared from her body and her entire person suddenly seemed different.

“Kiss of the Demon God.” Mo Qingcheng mumbled.

“Kiss of the Demon God?” Qin Wentian started. Mo Qingcheng smiled, “This pendant is named ‘Kiss of the Demon God.’”

“You have already formed a connection with it, what sort of treasure is this exactly?” Qin Wentian felt very curious. This pendant wasn’t considered an ultimate treasure of the Heaven Immortal Tower and was somewhat ordinary in the dazzling lineup of loot he obtained. It was just that it suddenly activated when Mo Qingcheng wore it? And there seemed to be some unusual effects.

Mo Qingcheng closed her eyes. In the next instant, the glow from her body began to glow brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire room. Countless law formations appeared, also enveloping Qin Wentian and Qing`er. The glow they exuded was so resplendent that even the heavens and earth would lose their color.

In the center of the formation, a faint shadow slowly appeared behind Mo Qingcheng. Or more accurately, the formations all surrounded her.

That faint shadow was that of an immensely large phoenix. Her eyes were sharp and bright, like it was alive. There was no doubt that this was a true phoenix. Currently, a hint of disdain could be seen in her eyes as she stared at Qin Wentian and Qing`er. This phoenix was like a true demon god.

“This…” Qin Wentian’s heart pounded. The phoenix gave him a feeling that this pendant could be used to summon it. How could such a majestic and ancient true phoenix actually be summoned from the pendant?

“Who are you all?” The ancient phoenix asked, speaking in the human tongue. Qin Wentian, Mo Qingcheng and Qing`er felt huge waves in their hearts again.

This phoenix was truly alive and it actually has the ability to think. It actually asked them who they were.

“What treasure is this pendant? Why can it be activated by my wife?” Qin Wentian counter-asked, his eyes gleaming with sharpness as he stared at the phoenix.

“Your wife?” The phoenix glanced at the beautiful maiden she was supposed to protect. “The gown she is wearing is created from the energy of my bloodline. This is the reason why she can summon me, forming a resonance between us. Where did she get the gown from?”

Qin Wentian’s heart trembled again. So it turned out that the reason for activation was actually because of the phoenix gown.

“This is a gift from my mother.” Qin Wentian replied.

The phoenix coldly glanced at Qin Wentian. An immense surge of energy radiated from her, enveloping this room, boring down on Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian frowned. He released his powerful world heart, completely isolating this space. He stared at the phoenix and coldly spoke, “I have no reason to lie to you.”

“You don’t have the bloodline?” The phoenix also replied back in a domineering manner, coldly staring at Qin Wentian. Her words seemed a little vague but Qin Wentian instantly thought about something. Could this have something to do with the mother whom he has never seen before?

“I died once and my soul was almost scattered. Upon reviving, I lost my bloodline powers.” Qin Wentian spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, he revealed his astral souls. The phoenix glanced at his astral souls and the might radiating from her dissipated a little. Clearly, she began to trust Qin Wentian. If one hasn’t died once, it was impossible for a person to have such powerful astral souls, not even if the person had reincarnated.

“Where is your mother? Who is she?” The phoenix asked again.

“I don’t know, I’ve never met her before. I grew up in a particle world and initially thought that I was an orphan. I only learnt that I have parents after that. I also have no idea where she is, whether she is alive or dead. My purpose in coming to the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms is precisely because I wish to investigate this matter.” If it was others asking him, he wouldn’t explain so clearly. But this phoenix seemed to have a connection with his mother. This was why he told the phoenix so much.

“Seems like your wife is truly fortunate.” The phoenix spoke in a low voice. She gradually trusted Qin Wentian more and more. Sadly, it seemed that the spirit lord of this generation was going to be somewhat weak.

Qin Wentian frowned, his tone was cold, “If you are unwilling, I won’t force you to. You can remove the connection between the pendant and my wife.”

“What do you mean?” The phoenix stared at Qin Wentian.

At this moment, a bright light flashed as the Skybreak Heavenly Deity appeared. This caused the phoenix to glance at the Skybreak Heavenly Deity. From his body, she could feel an unknown sense of pressure.

“Just a weapon spirit. How dare you be so arrogant? Since she has become your spirit lord, that is your fortune. What qualifications do you have to say that she is fortunate?” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity coldly spoke.

“Who are you?” The phoenix stared at the Skybreak Heavenly Deity.

“Skybreak Heavenly Deity.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity coldly replied. “Note your attitude when speaking to me.”

The phoenix suddenly laughed. She stared at Qin Wentian, “Seems like you are really not simple and have had extraordinary encounters before.

“Are you willing to stay or not? If you are not, I’ve already said that I wouldn’t force you. You can remove the connection between you and my wife.” Qin Wentian spoke. He had no wish for a weapon spirit that was disrespectful to Qingcheng to remain. He wouldn’t allow anyone or anything to show disrespect to her.

“How arrogant, as expected of a descendant of that clan. Fine, I’m willing to stay and treat her as my spirit lord, obeying her summons.”

A smile then appeared on Qin Wentian’s face. “Alright, since this is the case. Thank you, senior.”

His character was always like this, if the other party was disrespectful, he wouldn’t fear them. But if the other party was respectful, he would naturally return the respect, no matter who the other party was.

“Senior, what I said before is the truth. I really have no idea who my mother is. Earlier, when senior said the phrase ‘as expected of a descendant from that clan,’ which clan are you referring to?” Qin Wentian inquired. He didn’t expect that this robbery of the Heaven Immortal Tower would actually bring about such a coincidence, allowing him to meet a treasure from his mother’s clan and even formed a resonance with Mo Qingcheng due to a series of coincidences.

He felt that he was gradually getting closer to his mother’s clan.

“There is no need for me to tell you this. In the near future, you will naturally learn of it.” The phoenix calmly spoke. “Earlier, you were not polite at all. And although I have acknowledge your wife to be the spirit lord, I don’t need to listen to your commands.”

Qin Wentian awkwardly smiled. Mo Qingcheng then asked, “In that case, senior, can I ask on behalf of him?”

“No. You are clearly tricking me. Hmph.” The phoenix spoke. “I’m leaving, if you have need of me in the future, just summon me.”

As the sound of her voice faded, the light dimmed as the phoenix returned to the pendant around Mo Qingcheng’s neck. After that, the pendant sank back inside Mo Qingcheng’s skin, leaving behind just a mark there.

“To think that there actually is such a mystical treasure.” Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice.

“Seems like your origins are extraordinary.” Although the Skybreak Heavenly Deity was very domineering earlier, when he looked at Qin Wentian now, a small look of surprise could be seen on his face.

“Even until now, I don’t know what my origins are. I only know that my parents have a death grudge as deep as an ocean of blood with their clans. I have to avenge them no matter what.” Qin Wentian’s eyes gleamed with a terrifying light.

“If you can become an existence like the Imperishable Heaven Lord, you would have the capability to pay all your enemies back.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity calmly spoke. “It’s time for me to sleep. If you need me, just wake me up again.”

“Right.” Qin Wentian nodded. The manifested will of the Skybreak Heavenly Deity then vanished.

In the room, only Qin Wentian, Qing`er and Mo Qingcheng were left.

“Qingcheng, do you feel that anything is different?” He could sense that something has changed with Mo Qingcheng.

“Mhm…there seems to be a mysterious energy that is constantly tempering my body.” Mo Qingcheng nodded her head. “This is especially so in the location of my heart. My heartbeat has became much quicker.”

Qin Wentian stretched his hand out and placed it on her chest, feeling the beat of her heart. As expected, her heart was pounding with more force than usual, there seemed to be a mysterious energy circulating through it.

“This should be an effect after the Kiss of the Demon God is activated. This treasure is extraordinary, maybe, its function isn’t as simple as merely summoning a spirit phoenix body.” Qin Wentian spoke in a low voice but as of now, he had no way to verify his guess.

“Mhm.” Mo Qingcheng nodded, she also felt the same.

“Seems like this is an opportunity mother-in-law has bestowed on me. Wentian, do you think that mother-in-law is in the shadows, silently watching you grow?” Qingcheng suddenly spoke. Qin Wentian’s gaze turned somewhat ethereal. Was his mother really still alive?

What about his father? How was he now? He had lived two lifetimes, and now during his second life, was he doing good?

“If my mother is still alive, she would surely feel very proud of me after seeing you two.” Qin Wentian stretched his hands out and embraced Qing`er and Qingcheng as he tenderly spoke.

…

The commotion of the Heaven Immortal Tower being robbed still hasn’t faded away. Time passed by, the bandits seemed to have all evaporated into thin air, there was simply no way to find them. Most probably, never in their wildest dreams would the Dragon Pool Manor expect that one of the bandits would actually be Qin Wentian, that person who forcefully took Jin Zhi away. They initially wanted to use the price of one treasure to capture Qin Wentian but now, in Qin Wentian’s hands, there are several treasures of their Heaven Immortal Tower instead.

As time continued to pass, the commencement date of the Convention of the Myriad Realms got nearer and nearer. The atmosphere of Time City naturally also surged up and got livelier!
