Ancient Godly Monarch

Qin Wentian merely took a small step forward, but in an instant, those experts surrounding him were all frightened into retreating. Their faces were filled with terror as great waves of emotions rose in their hearts.

The Sword Spirit Sect Leader was an extremely powerful empyrean. However, just a beam of light shot out by Qin Wentian caused him to disintegrate completely. He couldn’t resist at all.

Only at this moment did many people suddenly realize that when Qin Wentian insulted the Lifelong Realmlord, that wasn’t him courting death. It was possible that he might have broken through to that legendary realm.

For the nine world palace lords, the empyreans of many peak powers felt their hearts trembling. How can this be possible?

In a mere hundred years, could he really have managed to do that? This was completely unprecedented.

Below, countless experts among the crowd were all in a daze, stunned by shock. Was this new Lifire Palace Lord going to change the sky?

He exuded boundless magnificence. Once, he rose up in this Lifelong Banquet and today, at the Lifelong Banquet, he actually was going to challenge the Lifelong Realmlord from the underlying meaning of his words earlier!

“Heavenheart Mandate.” At this moment, the Realmlord who was seated on his throne calmly spoke. He stared at Qin Wentian. He truly didn’t expect this. Qin Wentian actually didn’t come here just to send himself to death, he came here fully prepared. When Qin Wentian insulted him earlier, he initially thought that there was someone backing Qin Wentian up.

The Lifelong Realmlord was a world overlord existence, he clearly knew how difficult it was to enter this realm. The more he knew, the more he didn’t dare to think about it. Qin Wentian actually climbed from mid-stage immortal emperor to the world overlord realm in a mere hundred years? What concept was this?

When the crowd heard the words ‘Heavenheart Mandate,’ all the empyreans felt their hearts tremble. They naturally understood what the two words meant. Heavenheart Mandates were the sign of World Overlords.

Had Qin Wentian already become a World Overlord?

The expression of the Skyair Palace Lord was so contorted that it could no longer be described as ugly. He naturally didn’t expect, not even in his wildest dreams, that this was possible. Only now did he realize what Qin Wentian meant when he said that he had no qualifications to talk to him. The Skyair Palace Lord now truly had no rights to speak equally with Qin Wentian.

The people of the Jialan Clan felt their hearts trembling. Jialan Jiangshan was shuddering as well, the young are fearsome indeed. He suddenly felt that he had truly aged. Once, he saw Qin Wentian and Di Tian entering the Empyrean Realm together and killing the previous Lifire Palace Lord. And today, he saw Qin Wentian killing the Sword Spirit Sect Leader in a single strike from his comprehensions of his Heavenheart Mandate.

Jialan Yuntian, Jialan Yunhai, Jialan Qiuyue and the rest were all completely speechless as they stared at this young man in white.

Was this his confidence?

The eyes of the Xuanyuan Palace turned sharp. That year in the ancient battlefield, he had already experienced for himself Qin Wentian’s brilliance. But even so, this scene now was truly shocking. Seems like he must have encountered good fortune in the ancient battlefield and returned here prepared. Clearly, if Qin Wentian didn’t die, his future accomplishments would surely far surpass the Lifelong Realmlord. If he had to choose someone to follow, he would rather choose Qin Wentian.

But even so, he was still hesitating. Should he stand out to declare his support? This naturally was a very good opportunity. If not, when the trend of the situation is clear, there would no longer be a meaning. This was definitely going to be a huge gamble. Qin Wentian transmitted a message to the Xuanyuan Clan, informing them to choose carefully. He decided to seriously observe and wouldn’t make any reckless moves. However, the time to choose has now come.

Everyone had different thoughts in their mind. Nobody noticed the fear and regret in the heart of the experts from the Sword Spirit Sect. They had personally seen their sect leader being slayed. Right now, they could only hope that the Realmlord was able to kill Qin Wentian or their sect would truly be doomed.

“No wonder you dared to be so brazen. So it turned out that you do have some confidence. Are you trying to smear this seat’s reputation so you can rally the others to rebel?” The Lifelong Realmlord calmly spoke. The him right now still didn’t forget to try and cleanse his reputation.

“Lifelong Realmlord, your innate personality is a despicable man, why do you still refuse to admit it? Given someone of your disposition being able to sit so long on your throne, I wonder how many people have suffered grievances. Today, it’s time for you to give your position up.” Qin Wentian calmly spoke. However, his calm voice was like a thunderbolt.

Today, it’s time for you to give your position up.

The Lifire Palace Lord Qin Wentian told the Lifelong Realmlord to step down, did he desire to replace him?

“What audacious words. Just because you’ve comprehended your Heavenheart Mandate and entered this realm, do you think you are strong enough to win against this seat? Just with the meager amount of subordinates you possess, are you intending to go against all the powers in my Lifelong Realm? Qin Wentian, your appetite is too big. Although your talent is high, you don’t know how to keep a low profile, you shall be exterminated by the heavens.” The Lifelong Realmlord was as expected of someone of his status. Even now, his emotions didn’t fluctuate too much. He gave off a feeling that he was as heavy and stable as a mountain.

“It’s really about time for you to retire.” At this moment, a cold voice rang out. The eyes of the Lifelong Realmlord flashed with coldness, staring in a certain direction.

After everyone saw who it was that had spoken, all of them felt extremely astonished.

“The Desolate Heaven Palace Lord!” The spectators felt their hearts trembling. Today, they were here to attend the grand banquet. Who would have thought that a storm of such proportions would erupt.

The Desolate Heaven Palace Lord was the number one expert among the nine world palaces. Even he has chose to stand out now, speaking for Qin Wentian, saying that it’s time for the Lifelong Realmlord to retire.

Out of the nine world palaces, two palace lords had rebelled. One was the legendary character Qin Wentian, his rise to fame was like the speed of a shooting star, unexcelled in the world. For the other person, it was actually the Desolate Heaven Palace Lord, the number one expert in the nine world palaces.

“Huang Zhan, how dare you.” The Skyair Palace Lord coldly spoke. “My master gave you the position of a palace lord and even once wanted to take you as his disciple, treating you as one although you are not. You actually want to rebel now?”

“Treating me as a disciple?” The Desolate Heaven Palace Lord Huang Zhan coldly laughed. “I’m able to live till today because of the protection of a woman. Everyone if the realm thinks that I’m the strongest palace lord in the nine world palaces, but who among them would know that I’m nothing but a coward? I don’t even dare to fight for the woman I love. Lifelong Realmlord, back then you seized the woman I loved and you have always been on your guard against me. Once I pose the slightest threat to you, I believe that my death date wouldn’t be far off. Who would have thought that even after so many years have passed, you are still as shameless and despicable as ever, using the same methods to deal with others. Today, I’d rather be mocked by everyone in the world. Even if I died here today, I will reveal your true character. You are lowly and despicable, an extremely shameless individual.”

The Desolate Heaven Palace Lord Huang Zhan had endured this for a long time. Finally, there was someone who stood out to oppose the Lifelong Realmlord. He didn’t want to endure any longer, he clearly knew that if he said such a thing out loud, his own reputation would be tarnished and he would even be mocked by everyone in the world for not having the guts to fight for his woman. However, he could no longer be careless. Even if the Lifelong Realmlord was the one victorious today, the black mark on his reputation would circulate through the entire Lifelong Realm. Unless of course, he killed everyone who came here to attend the grand banquet today. This was something clearly impossible.

Give the number of people here to attend the grand banquet, if he did so, the Lifelong Realm’s strength would wane greatly and might even collapse.

Discussions rang out among the crowd again. The Lifelong Realmlord has actually seized the woman the Desolate Heaven Palace Lord loved before? This was simply…

In that case, was everything Qin Wentian has said real? The Lifelong Realmlord was actually such a despicable person?

At this moment, many people felt their faith crumbling as their vision of the world was flipped upside-down.

That was right, those supreme existences only existed in the legends. Others could only stare up at and couldn’t come in contact with them. However, these legendary existences were also human. As long as they were human, they would definitely feel greed and desire.

The Lifelong Realmlord’s weakness was lust. Hence, he was willing to use any sorts of despicable methods to achieve his aim. He felt that the entire Lifelong Realm was his, as long as he liked a woman, he would want to acquire them. Even if that person was his subordinates’ women.

If this was true, it meant that Qin Wentian was truly forced to rebel by the Lifelong Realmlord. Just like what Qin Wentian had said, the Lifelong Realmlord imprisoned Ye Qianyu in the Lifelong Sainthall and wanted to borrow Ye Qianyu to dance to the crowd. Qin Wentian had no choice but to rebel.

“Seems like you guys have planned this for a long time, allying in the dark and will spare no expense to destroy this seat’s reputation. If you all want my position, come and openly snatch it away. Why do you need to take all these measures?” The Lifelong Realmlord calmly spoke, as though the words of Qin Wentian and the Desolate Heaven Palace were just them trying to damage his reputation. He naturally wouldn’t admit to this.

“Realmlord, there’s no need for you to deny it any longer. Those of the older generations all know about this incident. Although you are a lofty individual, it’s true that you have a despicable character. Why don’t you give your position up?” At this moment, Jialan Jiangshan spoke out. Only now did everyone realize that the Jialan Clan didn’t sit on the platform reserved for Lifelong City, they sat on the platform reserved for the Lifire Palace.

“Who else is going to join forces with Qin Wentian, you might as well all step out now. This seat doesn’t mind a few more dancing clowns.” The Lifelong Realmlord still suppressed his anger at this moment. From this, one could tell how terrifying his endurance was.

“Speaking of this, I also remembered some of the things that happened in the past.” The Gemini Palace Lord spoke out, staring at the Lifelong Realmlord. “Lifelong Realmlord, you should remember that back then, you had a very good relationship with my master, right? At that time, you were humble and polite, and extremely friendly to my master. You invited him to explore a secret realm. After experiencing many dangers together, you actually took the treasure alone and fled. My master saw your true colors and started to distance himself from you. You felt guilty, that’s why you brought out the suggestion for the two of us to take the Gemini Palace Lords position. However, how can this be compared to the treasure you took for yourself? That is an overlord-ranked divine weapon!”

The palace lords all stood out one by one. Earlier, those who knew nothing finally understood now. So it turned out that the master of the Gemini Palace Lords was also a world overlord, an existence on the same level as the Lifelong Realmlord. They couldn’t help but wonder if they heard of him before.

Seeing that the Desolate Heaven Palace and Gemini Palace both standing out, the Xuanyuan Palace Lord had a decision in his heart. The Desolate Heaven Palace Lord Huang Zhan was the strongest empyrean in the Lifelong Realm. The master of the Gemini Palace Lords was Yi. It was about time he made his decision. He knew that there was no way for him to remain neutral. If he didn’t stand on Qin Wentian’s side and if Qin Wentian was victorious in the end, their Xuanyuan Clan would be in dire straits. He had to make his choice now.

“This subordinate has followed Realmlord for many years. Our clan fought on behalf of you to help gain this empire. Although we have been following Realmlord’s orders for so many years, I still have to stand out to say something now. The words all the palace lords have spoken are true. Realmlord, it’s true that your cultivation base is high. It’s also true that your personality is not too good. Why don’t you take this chance to give up your position. You are no longer qualified to sit on the throne.”

The Xuanyuan Palace Lord had chosen to stand on Qin Wentian’s side.

Out of all the world palace lords, the Kanwater Palace Lord has already fallen. Only eight were left.

As for the remaining eight palace lords, there were a total of four who actually chose to rebel, wanting the Lifelong Realmlord to step down. These four are: The Desolate Heaven Palace, the Xuanyuan Palace, the Gemini Palace and the Lifire Palace!

The strength of these four palaces were only stronger compared to the other four, not weaker.

This once per hundred years grand banquet of the Lifelong Realm was truly going to be a shocking one!
