Chapter 1324: Voice of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

"ARGH!" Just when Qin Wentian was thinking about it, Evergreen Yuhao suddenly let out a beast-like howl. His eyes gleamed with redness and although he was locked down by the divine weapons, he wanted to struggle free. The entirety of blood in his body was churning as his expression grew malevolent.

Qin Wentian glanced over, frowning. Evergreen Yuhao seemed to be seized by his heart demons.

The light from the art of truth radiated from Qin Wentian as his eyes flashed with light, seeing past everything. He stared right into the eyes of Evergreen Yuhao and he could faintly see two different kinds of will within. However, given his current cultivation base, he had no way to see through them completely, to tell who was the master of the second will. He could only see a shadowy figure.

A miserable scream rang out, Evergreen Yuhao's eyes dripped with blood as his entire body started to tremble as even more blood flowed from his orifices. The immortal kings around him all stiffened, glancing at Evergreen Yuhao who was continuing to bellow as his aura grew weaker and weaker.

"Destroying the evidence?" Qin Wentian's eyes flickered. Seems like the mastermind wasn't so simple, he made use of Evergreen Yuhao because nobody would guard against him, and there's no need for him to show himself even if Evergreen Yuhao failed.

Daring to assassinate Qin Wentian and Qing`er in the royal palace of the Evergreen Immortal Empire is a crime equivalent to death once he was caught. After cultivating to the immortal king realm, who would want to die so easily?

There were many death warriors in the immortal realms, but only an extremely limited amount at the immortal king level. For lofty immortal kings, who would be willing to die as the price to do something? Even if their cultivation bases couldn't improve further, they could still be the hegemon of a certain area, opening their own sects.

Evergreen Yuhao eventually died, the immortal kings all had cold expressions on their faces when they stared at his corpse. They wouldn't care about Evergreen Yuhao's identity, for they only had a single mission - to protect Qin Wentian and Princess Qing`er.

No matter what identity Evergreen Yuhao had, since he dared to assassinate Qin Wentian, his fate was already set. Even if the Evergreen Immortal Emperor couldn't bear to kill him, there was no way Evergreen Yuhao would be able to climb up the ranks again.

"Princess, Sir Qin, please return to the palace." An immortal king beside them reiterated. Although it was impossible for any incidents to occur with them as guards, it was still better to be more cautious.

"Let's go." Qin Wentian pulled Qing`er along.

"What about your injuries?" Qing`er saw that Qin Wentian's robes were dyed red with blood.

"It's fine, my recovery abilities are extremely strong." Qin Wentian laughed. In fact, he was actually quite heavily injured. But now wasn't the time to be worried about this.

The group of them then turned and returned to the royal palace as the crowd stared at their departing backs.

"That should be Princess Qing`er and Qin Wentian, right? Truly an immortal couple. Princess Qing`er is the same as the rumors, an ice beauty."

"Qin Wentian is truly powerful, surviving despite the assassination of an immortal king. Although he's injured, he still seemed fine."

"That's right, and that was a sneak attack by someone familiar to them. Evergreen Yuhao is of the Evergreen Clan. Considering his status, how could the guards be wary of him? Qin Wentian not being assassinated can only indicate the fact that his combat prowess is astounding. In the immortal-foundation realm, most probably there wouldn't be anyone else stronger than him.

Sounds of discussion rang out unceasingly, and amidst the crowd, an old man in tattered clothing slowly squeezed out. He inclined his head and stared into the horizon as his eyes gleamed with coldness. He then cursed in a low voice, "Trash!"

Although the time during the assassination was short, he had actually prepared a lot for this attempt. If not, how could he know what was in Evergreen Yuhao's heart and even timed his appearance so neatly when Qin Wentian and Qing`er were out of the royal palace? For this opportunity, he had already waited two months just for success.

Naturally, two months of time was nothing to him. Once, he waited over eight hundred years just to find a perfect opportunity to kill someone.

He was angry because his planning was perfect and this was such a rare opportunity for him to make use of Evergreen Yuhao, yet Evergreen Yuhao still failed to kill Qin Wentian despite all of these factors. One can only say that Evergreen Yuhao was trash. If he was the one who acted, he only needed a single strike. But once he acted, he might have to leave his life behind here in the Evergreen Immortal Empire. He had no wish to perish together with an immortal junior.

Now, he could only await other chances. But since he had screwed up this attempt, it would definitely be tougher to kill Qin Wentian from now on.

Qin Wentian and Qing`er returned to the royal palace. After knowing the news that Qin Wentian was almost assassinated, the entire royal palace was trembling from shock. There was actually someone who dares to act in the capital of the Evergreen Immortal Empire, simply too audacious. This was challenging the prestige of the Evergreen Immortal Empire.

"I'll look for father." Qing`er icily spoke the moment they returned to the palace. She could ignore other things but this time, Qin Wentian was almost assassinated. There was no way she would let this slide. Evergreen Yuhao was merely a scapegoat, she wanted to find who the mastermind was.

Before this, during the assassination attempt, her heart almost stopped. She would never allow such a thing to happen again.

Qin Wentian knew of Qing`er's emotions and he didn't stop her. He returned to Princess Changping's manor only to see Princess Changping and the Crimson-Eyed Marquis walking over. Staring at his blood stained robes, the marquis couldn't help but to ask coldly, "Was it really done by Evergreen Yuhao?"

Earlier in the secret dimension, Evergreen Yuhao was the one who injured Qin Wentian. To think that he was so audacious and dared to assassinate Qin Wentian.

"Mhm, but the mastermind behind this is unknown. Evergreen Yuhao seemed to be controlled by someone." Qin Wentian's eyes flickered with coldness.

"At the immortal king realm yet he is so easily controlled? This means that his heart must surely harbor some malicious intents towards you or the other party wouldn't be able to control him so easily." The Crimson-Eyed Marquis coldly spoke. "That fellow kept thinking that it was true his father died for the sake of his Majesty. His Majesty didn't reveal the truth because he wanted to save face for Evergreen Yuhao, to think that he actually dared to have such rapacious designs."

Qin Wentian's eyes flashed. Could it be that there are some hidden things about the news he heard from the Crimson-Eyed Marquis before?

"Wentian this is a secret of our empire. Only a rare few knew of this because his Majesty back then issued an order not to spread it around. In the beginning, Evergreen Yuhao did fight for his Majesty but after that, he betrayed the empire for benefits. He was seen through by the White Emperor but because his Majesty was thankful for all of his prior contributions, his Majesty spared him and forbade anyone from speaking about it. At the same time, he treated Evergreen Yuhao fairly, but with a father like that, the son is so as well.

The marquis icily spoke. Only now did Qin Wentian understand why the Crimson-Eyed Marquis was very unhappy with Evergreen Yuhao back then. So there was still a deeper layer of meaning hidden behind.

Many things weren't as simple as they seemed.

"Wentian, who do you think the mastermind is?" Princess Changping asked.

"Who else can they be? It must be those who are reluctant to accept the results of the adjudication battle. By using such a method, we won't be able to trace it back to the true peak power behind this so easily, and hence, we won't be able to take revenge." Qin Wentian coldly spoke. Other than those few powers, who would be so crazy to send out an expert to assassinate him, a mere immortal-foundation junior right in the royal capital of the Evergreen Immortal Empire?

In addition, the target was him, they had no killing intent towards Qing`er.

"Mhm, seems like there's no mistake." Princess Changping nodded lightly. Those people acted in the shadows, making it so that it would be impossible for the Evergreen Immortal Empire to deal with all those enemy peak powers who participated in the ajduciation battle. There was nothing their empire could do.

"RUMBLE~" At this moment, Princess Changping and Qin Wentian's bodies both trembled. Their gazes flickered and after that, the earth started shaking violently.

"What's going on?" The entire manor seemed to be shaking. No, it wasn't just the manor, the entire royal palace was trembling and the tremors were growing increasingly stronger.

"BOOM!"

With a thunderous sound, a green light shot up into the sky. Qin Wentian and the others turned their attention towards the emperor's palace as their eyes all froze there, staring with shock at the ancient tree which just appeared.

"This…" Princess Changping and the Crimson-Eyed Marquis were both stunned. The ancient tree broke out from the earth, shooting straight up into the clouds, its gigantic frame so large that it even blotted out the sun. In just an instant, this Evergreen Tree enveloped the entire royal palace.

"Ancient Evergreen Tree." Qin Wentian mumbled. This ancient tree was none other than the supreme treasure of the Evergreen Immortal Empire which was used by the Evergreen Immortal Emperor in the battles during the past.

Now, this ancient tree appeared once again.

Within the palace, numerous experts appeared, floating up in the sky. Shock could be seen in the eyes of everyone. Usually, only when the empire was in a true crisis would the Evergreen Tree be activated. But right now, there seemed to be no one threatening the empire. Why did the ancient tree appear?

The speed of the tree's growth was extremely terrifying, extending towards the capital. Even for the speed of ordinary immortal emperors, they wouldn't be as fast as the tree.

The experts of the Evergreen Immortal Empire once again saw the glory of the ancient Evergreen Tree. They inclined their heads, staring with shock in their hearts. What was going on?

The silhouette of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor then appeared in the airspace above the royal palace.

"Your Majesty." The experts here all glanced at him, with a look of bewilderment on their faces.

"This place is the capital of my empire. If someone even dares to kill my son-in-law at my home, would there still be days of peace here?" The Evergreen Immortal Emperor calmly spoke. "No matter who it is, and regardless of how many people participating in the assassination attempt, as long as they are still in the capital, all of them must die!"

His voice reverberated throughout the royal capital, causing the hearts of everyone to tremble.

His Majesty activated the ancient Evergreen Tree purely because of the assassination attempt on Qin Wentian.

At this instant, Qin Wentian's status in the hearts of every noble began to soar high up into the air. In fact, all of them unconsciously started to treat him like the son of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor!
