Ancient Godly Monarch Chapter 1489 - Return to the City of Ancient Emperors

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Qin Wentian and the four maidens returned to the Evergreen Immortal Empire. They had spent thirty years out there roaming the world.

During these thirty years, although they had fun, he didnt forget to cultivate. By having different experiences, his state of heart was further tempered, resulting in him having different insights in the laws of heaven and earth. A few years before, he smoothly broke through to the next stage, entering the peak-stage of the immortal king realm. But even so, he still continued roaming the places of interest, not letting himself worry about the pressure of cultivating at all.

And now, they finally returned to the Evergreen Immortal Empire.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor was still not back yet. Right now, all the supreme experts had already gathered in the City of Ancient Emperors. How would there be anyone else as carefree as him? Choosing to give up on seeking good fortune in the City of Ancient Emperors and went off to roam the world for fun instead?

Qing`ers manor was as quiet as before. After they returned, they went to pay a visit to Princess Changping, whom they always had good relations with. When Princess Changping saw that they had returned, she and the Crimson-Eye Marquis naturally welcomed them warmly.

Right now, both Princess Changping and the Marquis, could already no longer see through Qin Wentian. When they thought of his name shaking the immortal realms, they couldnt help but to sigh incessantly. Back then a long ago, when Qin Wentian first came to the Evergreen Immortal Empire, he was just a little junior. But now, who would still dare to look upon him as a junior?

This fellow...if he became an immortal emperor one day, he would be a living legend.

Who are these two little lasses? Princess Changping asked when she saw Zhi Yan and Zhi Ran.

Aunt, their names are Zhi Yan and Zhi Ran. We met them when we were roaming the world, they both have very pitiful backgrounds and they are accepted by Wentian as his disciples. If I and Wentian leave, they would still have Qingcheng around. Aunt, if you are able to, help me take care of them as well. Qing`er spoke in a light voice, causing Princess Changping to start slightly. After that, she asked, You guys just came back, are you all planning on leaving again?

Princess, you all should already know about the current situation in the immortal realms. Although the surface appears calm, its merely the brewing calm before a terrifying storm. The change in the City of Ancient Emperors made everyone in the immortal realms cast their focus there. Huge changes to the immortal realms would occur sooner or later. This time around, we have already enjoyed ourselves for thirty years. Its about time to head back to the City of Ancient Emperors. Qin Wentian smiled.

Qing`er will go as well? Princess Changping asked.

I dont wish for her to go but when she heard that Im returning, she also wants to tag along. Im somewhat worried but I have no way to change her mind. Aunt, can you help me to persuade her? Qin Wentian bitterly smiled as he shook his head. Qing`er held on to his hand and replied, Ill go wherever you go.

Princess Changpings eyes flashed with a bright light when she heard how Qin Wentian addressed her. She then smiled, Wow, changing my title so fast? Seems like a marriage is impending. Qing`er, Wentians words make sense. Why dont you stay here to accompany me? Right now, the City of Ancient Emperors is just too lively. Dont you like things to be quieter?

Right now, the commotion in the City of Ancient Emperors was just too great. Ordinary immortal kings wouldnt dare to enter, they would have no way to contend with others.

Aunt is right. Qing`er, I have too many enemies in the City of Ancient Emperors. It wouldnt be convenient if I brought you along. Qin Wentian stated.

Qing`ers cool gaze turned to Qin Wentian, instantly causing his heart to soften. She then spoke, I will return to my sect and see if there are any senior sisters who wish to head along.

Alright then. Qin Wentian could only nod his head. There should be many experts under Matriarch Ji and they wouldnt be the same as him, having so many enemies. In addition, Qing`er had double-layer protection due to her status. She was not only the personal disciple of Matriarch Ji, she was also the daughter of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. No matter who wanted to make a move against her, they would have to think thrice. If she went with her fellow disciples, she would be much safer compared to him.

Qing`er, I will head to the City of Ancient Emperors first. After returning to your sect, you can only go there if the other disciples of Matriarch Ji are going along as well. Do not enter the City of Ancient Emperors alone, okay? Qin Wentian reminded.

Qing`er icily glanced at Qin Wentian when she heard this, as though she was feeling a little resentful. Staring at her face, Qin Wentian suddenly pulled her into a hug, causing her to tremble slightly.

The eyes of Princess Changping and the Crimson Eye Marquis, who were by the side, went wide open. After that, they saw Qing`er struggling futilely in Qin Wentians embrace.

Qing`er, I know how you feel. It isnt that Im heartless but Ive truly offended too many major powers. Im doing this for your sake. Qin Wentian sighed.

Qing`er nodded her head, Ill listen to you. But if anything happens to you, I dont want to live in this world any longer.

Silly lass, with you and Qingcheng supporting me, how would anything happen to me? Qin Wentian gently stroked her hair. After that, he turned to Qingcheng, Qingcheng when Im not around, you have to work hard in cultivation too.

You have to be careful okay..? Mo Qingcheng smiled. They had been together every day for thirty years, how could she not be reluctant to part? Although she was worried, she still had a radiant smile on her face. She didnt want Qin Wentian to be worried about her.

Aunt, Ill be leaving first. Just help me out and continue to try and persuade Qing`er. Qin Wentian glanced at Princess Changping as he spoke.

You are in such a rush? Princess Changping started. They had just returned, yet Qin Wentian was already going to leave.

Ive already lived an easy and comfortable life for thirty years. Right now, its time to make haste and return to the City of Ancient Emperors, Qin Wentian replied. Princess Changping didnt really try to make him stay, A grand era might be approaching but Im happy being mediocre. Wentian, you have outstanding talent and should really try to contend against the geniuses of the world. Its just that you have to take note that safety always comes first.

I understand, even if it isnt for my own sake, I still have others worried about me. Qin Wentian smiled. He then turned to Zhi Yan and Zhi Ran, You two take good care of your mistresses okay?

Mhm. Master please dont worry. Zhi Ran nodded.

Little lasses. Qin Wentian rubbed their heads. After that, with a flash of his silhouette, he directly vanished. Although he also felt reluctance to part from them, he didnt turn his head back.

The period of thirty years might be considered short in the perspective of the immortal realms, but for those geniuses in the City of Ancient Emperors, thirty years definitely wasnt a short time.

The rules of the city have changed, good fortune could be found everywhere. During these thirty years, it was unknown how many experts had fallen. There were some whose strength underwent a qualitative transformation, growing stronger than before. Those not so fortunate had all turned into piles of bones, buried here for all eternity in the City of Ancient Emperors. Even powerful immortal kings were no exception, all of them had a high chance to die in the city.

It was very rare for the immortal realms to experience such a brutal thirty years of time. The changing rules of the city indicated the arrival of a brand new grand era. There would be many supreme characters appearing in the immortal realms, this also fit in with the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy as well as the appearance of the Demongod Mountain. Even the experts from the Myriad Devil Islands came here. The sky of the entire immortal realms was changing.

At this moment, on the peak of a desolate mountain in the City of Ancient Emperors, two silhouettes, one male and one female could be seen. The man was tall and exuded elegance. His countenance was calm, but it did nothing to hide the sorrow of his eyes. He sat on that mountain as the white-robed maiden laid in his arms. Her hair had completely turned white, her face was pale as well as traces of blood could be seen at the corners of her lips.

I shouldnt have come to the City of Ancient Emperors. The young man spoke in a light tone of voice, sounding extremely calm, with no traces of other emotions.

Silly you... The woman stretched out a dainty finger, gingerly touching his face. She gently spoke, This place originally should be the place you should come to. The elites of the world have gathered here, how can they be lacking you? By cultivating at my side all these years, I have burdened you.

If it wasnt for you, I wouldnt have what I have today. If we never had encountered each other in the past, the ending today would also be different. You guided me then, helping me so much, yet my actions have implicated you. The young man replied.

Without me, your accomplishments would definitely be higher. As for my ending...As long as Im able to die in your arms, Im already very content. In this life, what else could be more satisfying to me than that? Despite the paleness of the womans face, she was as beautiful as ever. A blessed smile could be seen.

But Ive implicated you and now, you are dying because of me. The young man replied.

You have never implicated me. Also, given how vast this world is, there definitely would be many characters ending up as bones in the City of Ancient Emperors. This calamity in my life, was already predestined. Dont blame yourself. That woman smiled. Im really tired. You have to take care of yourself in the future...

After she spoke, she closed her eyes slowly as her aura dissipated. However, her countenance was calm and filled with love, she was at peace.

The young man gazed into the distance, with the wind gusting about, it was like sand had entered his eyes. At the corner of his eyes, tears streaked down his face. He glanced up at the heavens, where the runes of the great dao radiated a pure light that cascaded downwards. That, was the source of a dao element that hailed from some other immortal realm.

A terrifying light gleamed in the young mans eyes. He seemed to be able to see through everything as his gaze pierced through the void. In an instant, the pure light of the dao element cascading downwards, shot into his eyes as the light transformed into ancient runes, entering his mind. After that, his eyes grew increasingly resplendent, holding within them the power of samsara.

How laughable. Is this merely one of my reincarnated lives? The young man stared into the horizon, looking at the boundless starry skies. His demeanor changed, his entire being was different. A mocking smile could be seen on his lips but it was unknown if he was mocking others or mocking himself.

If there were others here, all of them would undoubtedly be shocked. This young mans cultivation wasnt high, only at the mid-stage of the immortal king realm. The amount of emperors fate behind him wasnt a lot either, yet he had managed to comprehend a dao element.

As expected, in the City of Ancient Emperors, there would be those who turned into bones, but there would also be those who grew stronger.

Who is it? A sound could be heard behind him. That young man spoke, his tone of voice filled with tranquillity. In fact, he didnt even move.

Behind him, a figure appeared. This figure was none other than Qin Wentian.

He returned, coming back to the City of Ancient Emperors once again. Staring at the light cascading from the skies, he couldnt help but to sigh in his heart. That wasnt just a single dao element. With different dao elements appearing, how could the rules of the ancient city remain unchanged?

During these thirty years, he left to roam the world. In perspective of his cultivation, he didnt know whether his decision was the right one or the wrong one. However, he felt no regrets. Everyone had their own paths of cultivation. Back then, forsaking the opportunities in the city by leaving here, was his own choice, his own path of cultivation.

Its me. The features of the Saber-Sword Immortal King faded away, revealing Qin Wentians true face.

The eyelids of the young man trembled slightly, but it was only for an instant. He still didnt turn back, as he calmly spoke, Those years back then, both of us participated in the recruitment exercise of the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect. You obtained the first place, while Myriad Manifestations chose me to be her disciple. The world has changed so much, change is truly the only constant. Now, the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect no longer exists. The Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor spared no expense, wanting to kill you... while she died in here.

My condolences. Qin Wentian didnt know what to say. He didnt expect that when he met Hua Taixu again, it would be in such circumstances.

Ive grieved enough. Everything will eventually return to the cycle of samsara. Hua Taixu calmly replied. Carrying up the corpse of the Myriad Manifestations Immortal King, his silhouette flashed as he soared up into the sky.
