Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Wan Miaoyan inclined her head and stared at those figures flying past. Although among them, some of their auras werenʼt that strong, roughly the same as her cultivation base, their demeanors were all extremely princely, like lofty characters in the clouds.

”Miaoyan, you are merely lacking an opportunity. Coming here is your bout of good fortune, you must not only enter the Darknorth Immortal Mountain, I hope that you would be able to join a major power in the royal capital too. The Wan Clan isnʼt suitable for you to stay in any longer.” At this moment, Wan Miaoyanʼs father Wan Qingshan, spoke.

”I wish to take a look at the royal palace of the dynasty.” Wan Miaoyan spoke in a light voice.

”Since we are already here in the capital, we naturally would have to take a look at the outside of the royal palace.” Wan Qingshan nodded, a deep respect could be seen in his eyes.

They were people from a small city and wouldnʼt come to the capital often. The royal palace to them, was naturally like a holy land.

”Going to the capital to take a look?” The people from the Wan Clan around all had a heart of worship as they mumbled.

”To think that I could see the capital of my dynasty in my lifetime.” Wan Zhuqing, who was in the sedan, sighed with emotions. For the two young people beside him, they were actually more calm in comparison.

”Wentian you are still so young, you would definitely have great accomplishments in the future. Donʼt you want to head over to the royal capital too?” Wan Zhuqing asked.

”I will naturally go over.” Qin Wentian smiled. Before this, Wan Zhuqing thought that he was just making casual remarks about Beiming Nongyue and Li Yufeng. He naturally wouldnʼt say that he was a character that can freely move in and out of the Evergreen Immortal Empireʼs royal palace.

As they travelled, after some time, they finally arrived outside the royal palace. Qin Wentian and the two others walked out from the sedan and stared at the towering and majestic palace. Upon glancing at it, reverence would appear in oneʼs heart, causing ordinary folks to feel the impulse to bow to it.

Zhiyin also seriously contemplated the palace, as though wanting to imprint the scene she saw in her mind.

”You wish to paint it?” Qin Wentian glanced at her and spoke.

”Mhm.” Zhiyin nodded lightly. If she could transplant the scene in her mind onto a painting, the painting would surely be extremely beautiful.

”One day, I will definitely enter this place.” Wan Yiming, one of the two supreme geniuses of the Wan Clan spoke, his eyes gleaming with a fiery intensity. Wan Miaoyan was silent but her heart was trembling with anticipation as well. Clenching her hands, her eyes shone with an immense confidence.

Staring at the experts walking in and out from the royal palace, all of these people were lofty characters. One day, they both wanted to become such major characters.

”Letʼs go.” Wan Miaoyan calmly spoke. Wan Qingshan nodded, the group of them changed direction, asking a few questions about the Darknorth Immortal Mountainʼs location as they proceeded on.

The mountain was located not far from the royal capital, and was situated in an extremely vast mountain range. Outside this mountain range, there was a special region that was like a city within a city. For those who wished to enter the Darknorth Immortal Mountain, they would have to pass by that city for sure.

Hence, this place was naturally extremely prosperous. Especially before the start of every ten-year period, there would be floods of people coming here, and every inn would be packed to the brim, extremely lively.

After the Wan Clan arrived here, they also found an inn to rest.

Every inn here was extremely gigantic, having a seperate courtyard each, allowing customers to enjoy their meals in the courtyard.

At this moment, the people from the Wan Clan sat around a few tables, enjoying the delicacies made from beast meat and immortal herbs. To sate immortals desire, ordinary food wouldnʼt suffice, no one would have any interest to eat them.

The people of the Wan Clan enjoyed the food. The food was extremely expensive but since it was rare for them to come to the capital, and the people who came were all elites, they naturally didnʼt mind splurging a little.

”Let me toast everyone. This is an early toast to wish Miaoyan and Yiming success, smoothly entering the Darknorth Immortal Mountain and break through to immortal king, gaining glory for our clan. Wan Qingshan lifted his cup and spoke to everyone. Everyone from the Wan Clan reciprocated the gesture, but at a small table at the side, among Qin Wentianʼs group, only Wan Zhuqing did so. Qin Wentian and Zhiyin acted as though they didnʼt hear the toast.

By toasting Wan Miaoyan and Wan Yiming, they were basically neglecting Zhiyin.

”Elder brother and sis Miaoyan would definitely succeed. In the future, our clan would then have multiple immortal king experts. Letʼs see how the Yan Clan dares to act arrogant then.” Wan Yiyao smiled. Their group was extremely confident, as though trying to console themselves.

The other people at the side glanced over but all of them merely smiled. For those who came to the Darknorth Immortal Mountain, which of them wouldnʼt want to break through to the immortal king realm? Everyone was naturally extremely confident but how could the immortal king realm be so easily reached?

”Everyone.” At this moment, an old man came over, clasping his hands to everyone. The people fo the Wan Clan turned their gazes over only to hear Wan Qingshan asking, ”Old sir, can we help you?”

Just like what he commanded when they arrived at the capital earlier, in this place, their Wan Clan dared not offend anyone.

The old man pointed to a table at the front. Over there, a young man exuding elegance was drinking wine alone, exuding a faint sense of arrogance. Behind him, an expert stood with his arms crossed in front of his chest, like a bodyguard.

”Heʼs the young master of my clan, the Duanmu Clan of the royal capital.” That old man introduced, his words causing Wan Qingshanʼs expression to turn a little heavy. He then turned to the young man and clasped his hands, ”Wan Qingshan greets young master Duanmu.”

”Mhm.” The young man nodded lightly. He was still as arrogant and didnʼt even glance over. Wan Qingshanʼs gaze flickered before he slowly put his hands down, his heart filled with trepidation.

”Itʼs boring to drink alone. Can I invite a lady to join me?” The young man spoke, putting down his cup as his gaze turned to Wan Miaoyan. Wan Miaoyan was pretty and she would naturally attract the attention of others.

”This…” Wan Qingshan froze. Wan Miaoyanʼs eyes gleamed with sharpness, this was the first time they met and it was clear this man was trying to pick her up. His manner felt extremely disrespectful as well, but he was someone from the royal capital and she had no idea what his background was like. How would their Wan Clan dare to offend him?

”What? You are unwilling?” The young man frowned as a wave of cold intent gushed forth.

The faces of everyone in the surroundings turned over, some of them had looks of pity, while others had looks of enjoying the drama.

”Naturally, we donʼt mean this.” Wan Qingshan spoke. He turned his gaze over to Qin Wentianʼs direction and spoke, ”Zhiyin, go and accompany young master Duanmu for a drink.”

Wan Zhuqing and Zhiyinʼs countenances changed. That young man turned his gaze from Wan Miaoyan to Zhiyin.

Zhiyinʼs demeanor was elegant and transcendent, and because she was veiled, this aroused the interest of the young man. He then spoke, ”Remove your veil.”

Zhiyin clenched her hands, as her body stiffened. She was naturally unwilling to do so, being threatened by that young master.

Qin Wentianʼs eyes gleamed with sharpness. He directly turned to the young man and stared straight at him, ”Young master Duanmu.”

”Huh?” The young man glanced at Qin Wentian, frowning. ”Did I speak to you?”

”I only wish to ask what sort of power is the Duanmu clan here? An immortal-emperor clan? Or an immortal-king clan.” Qin Wentian smiled. His eyes gleamed with golden light from the art of truth, capable of seeing through all lies. A strange expression flashed on the face of the young man, he faintly sensed that this man could see through all his secrets.

”What are you trying to say?” The voice of the young man turned cold. The old man standing before the Wan Clan was also radiating a cold intent, as he coldly smiled while looking at them.

Wan Qingshanʼs expression turned dark, ”Insolent, are you even qualified to speak here?”

Qin Wentianʼs eyes gleamed sharply. Before this, on account of Wan Zhuqing, he ignored the words of contempt spoken, as he couldnʼt be bothered with these people.

However, Wan Qingshan actually pushed Zhiyin out with no hesitation. This was an extremely shameless behavior.

Qin Wentian finally understood why Wan Zhuqing wanted him to travel with them. Most probably, if Zhiyin travelled with the Wan Clan alone, she would definitely be in an extremely disadvantageous position.

”As an elder of the Wan Clan, the first reaction you had was to sacrifice your niece when you encounter such a situation. How shameless and thick-skinned can you be?” Qin Wentian spoke in disdain. ”Since you donʼt wish to interfere, just shut the hell up. Thereʼs no need for you to comment on our matters.”

”You…” Wan Qingshan didnʼt expect Qin Wentian to be so brazen. Wan Miaoyan also furrowed her brows.

At this moment, Qin Wentian turned his gaze to the young man, ”The opening of the Darknorth Immortal Mountain causes characters of different personalities to gather here. You know many people came from small cities, and donʼt dare to offend people of the royal capital. Using the fear of others to establish your own dominance. Truly an intelligent plan indeed. If some fools were scared by this, wouldnʼt your next step be to bring the lady you want away?”

The young manʼs countenance changed. He stared at Qin Wentian, ”What are you talking about?”

A cold smile appeared on Qin Wentianʼs face as a cold intent suddenly gushed forth from him as he shouted, ”Scram!”

The sound of his voice was like thunder, shaking many of the tables nearby. The eyebrows of the young man twitched, he was terrified by Qin Wentianʼs gaze and had an ugly look on his face.

”Very well. Just wait here if you dare.” The young man stood up, leaving behind a domineering sentence before bringing his guard away.

”When has it become your turn to interfere in matters of my Wan Clan?” Wan Miaoyan frowned when she saw the young man leaving. If that young man truly had a powerful background, her Wan Clan would definitely be implicated.

”If you donʼt need me to interfere, why donʼt you directly go over and accompany him to drink?” Qin Wentian stared at Wan Miaoyan as he spoke.

”Impudent!” Wan Miaoyanʼs voice turned cold. But as she spoke, she discovered the young man from before walking over them. Beside him, several other experts could be seen.

”Everyone, junior apologizes for my earlier actions. Please forgive me.” Right now, the expression on this young manʼs face was extremely fascinating to behold.

”Before this, there were quite a few cases of beautiful women being harmed. You are the one who did it right?” At this moment, a young man at a nearby table quietly spoke, causing everyone to turn their gazes over.

”I donʼt know what you mean.” That person denied.

”Itʼs fine even if you deny it. But since you dare to use the name of my Duanmu Clan, you should already know your ending.” That young man calmly spoke. He slowly stood up and as he turned about, everyone could see a handsome face, exuding nobility.

”Young master.” Those several experts who caught the young man from before, escorting him back here, all turned and bowed to the young man at the seat, causing their prisoner who stole the Duanmu Clanʼs young masterʼs identity to turn pale.

”The true young master of the Duanmu Clan.” This time around, everyone here felt shock in their hearts. Who would have thought that there would be such a coincidence? Since the fake met the real, the ending of the fake could very well be imagined!
