Chapter 933: Top Ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Everyone turned to look at the figure in the air, their faces stiffening.

It was him. To think that he was actually here.

At this instant, almost everyone present was staring at the young man who descended from the skies. This made bewilderment appear on Qin Wentian’s face. This young man must surely be someone extraordinary. Even Nanfeng Yunxi’s appearance hadn’t warranted this reaction from the spectators.

Qin Wentian could somewhat guess who this was. Who else could be more famous than the three supreme beauties who were already present? There could only be two people. This young man was definitely one of the top two rankers on the Immortal Ascension Rankings.

Although his demeanor seemed casual, everyone could clearly sense the authority he radiated.

"Zi Daoyang, the son of the Violet Emperor."

Qin Wentian mused quietly. This Zi Daoyang was the top ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings. He was supposedly the strongest genius here in the City of Ancient Emperors. In this case, when in the perspective of the entire immortal realms for those who were at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, he could be truly considered as the top one or two.

"Lengyue, are you alright?" Zi Daoyang stared at the injured Xiao Lengyue lying on the ground, before turning to look at Qin Wentian.

"Daoyang gege!*" Although Xiao Lengyue was injured, she still managed to call out to him with a note of gentleness in her voice. Her melodious voice could hook the souls of almost every male present, causing all of them to feel speechless in their hearts. This was the disparity. Although everyone was a genius here, the distance between them was still too great. There were countless people who wished to pursue Xiao Lengyue, but none had ever succeeded.

However, the moment Zi Daoyang appeared, Xiao Lengyue had actually called out so affectionately in a gentle voice, calling for her ‘Daoyang gege’. Those pursuing Xiao Lengyue couldn’t help but feel their hearts turn grey at hearing this, crumbling to ashes on the spot. Such preferential treatment for Zi Daoyang made their hearts grow cold. However, when they inclined their heads to look at Zi Daoyang, they couldn’t help but shake their heads and sigh in their hearts.

No wonder Xiao Lengyue was behaving like this. This person was Zi Daoyang! Even if you are a supreme beauty, if your status wasn’t high enough, you wouldn’t even be qualified to be his friend.

"I hope you’re not too heavily injured?" Zi Daoyang asked. Xiao Lengyue lightly shook her head and replied, "Daoyang gege, weren’t you in closed-door seclusion? Why are you free to come here today?"

"I heard about the news of the Brahma Heavenly Emperor leaving his legacy behind in the Underworld Mountains, so I decided to come out from my seclusion earlier than planned," Zi Daoyang replied. After which, he turned his eyes onto Nanfeng Yunxi and laughed, "The descendant of the Southern Phoenix Clan, the daughter of the current Empress, Princess Nanfeng. Now that we’ve met, I can say that you’ve truly lived up to your reputation."

"You also believe in the news regarding the Brahma Heavenly Emperor?" Nanfeng Yunxi questioned, glancing at Zi Daoyang.

"I believed it because I know there’s one person who has entered the Underworld Mountains and he has already stayed there for quite a long time. I don’t believe he would simply die in there." Zi Daoyang smiled and nodded his head, his words causing a strange look to cross Nanfeng Yunxi’s face. "Are you referring to ‘him’?"

There weren’t many people who could make Zi Daoyang take notice. There were only a select few in the entirety of the City of Ancient Emperors. And since Zi Daoyang had said he knew someone who’d entered it, it was evident that this ‘someone’, would be a character that hadn’t appeared in the City of Ancient Emperors for a long time since.

When the spectators heard their conversation, they felt their hearts trembling as they instantly guessed at the ‘him’ both Zi Daoyang and Nanfeng Yunxi were talking about. Zi Daoyang was the top ranker, while Nanfeng Yunxi was ranked third. It was clear that the person they were referring to, was a character ranked between them. The second ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings was an extremely ruthless man. Who would have thought that he would vanish in the Underworld Mountains, a forbidden ground in the City of Ancient Emperors?

"Other than him, who else could it be? He wanted nothing more than to defeat me, and to become the top ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings. Hence, he entered the Underworld Mountains to search for good fortune. Honestly, he can be so ruthless towards himself. And now that there’s news of the Brahma Heavenly Emperor’s legacy being there, if he really is the person who managed to obtain it…" A gleam of sharpness flickered in Zi Daoyang’s eyes. In the City of Ancient Emperors, the only one who could make him feel a trace of trepidation was none other than the person ranked second in the Immortal Ascension Rankings.

Qin Wentian and Qing`er had stepped into the Underworld Mountains before, but they hadn’t met any living humans. From what Zi Daoyang had said, it seemed that it had been a long time since the second ranker had vanished within the Underworld Mountains. In that case, did it mean that he too had also passed the gap between the hidden mountains? What if Little Rascal already encountered this man?

Upon thinking of this, Qin Wentian felt worry seizing his heart. Little Rascal felt something summoning it, and that should be an indication that good fortune would belong to it. This was the reason why Qin Wentian had allowed Little Rascal to stay in there. But now, he couldn’t help but worry for Little Rascal’s safety.

At this moment, Zi Daoyang’s eyes shifted to Qing`er, who stood behind Qin Wentian. He then nodded and smiled. "Lil Sis Qing`er."

As the sound of his voice faded, expressions of interest appeared on the face of many spectators. Xiao Lengyue referred to Zi Daoyang as ‘Daoyang gege’, but Zi Daoyang had replied with an unenthusiastic ‘Lengyue’. He referred to Nanfeng Yunxi as Princess Nanfeng, but when speaking to Qing`er, he actually called her ‘Lil Sis Qing`er’? The three supreme beauties were all addressed in different manners. It was of familiarity for Xiao Lengyue, courtesy for Nanfeng Yunxi, and a hint of closeness with regards to how he chose to address Qing`er.

The moment he arrived, he instantly made casual conversation with the three supreme beauties of the City of Ancient Emperors. Such self-confidence was something no one else possessed. After all, these three supreme beauties were all ranked within the top ten in the Immortal Ascension Rankings.

However, the spectators saw only a look of unhappiness on Princess Qing`er’s face as she coldly regarded Zi Daoyang.

"Uncle Evergreen often comes to my residence as a guest. He’s like a younger brother to my royal father, and I’ve long heard Uncle Evergreen mentioning you in their conversations. It’s just that we weren’t fortunate enough to meet yet. Now that we’ve encountered each other in the City of Ancient Emperors, I managed to recognize you in a single glance. In any case, I’m older than you, and considering the relationship between our fathers, it isn’t over the top to call you Little Sister. So, Lil Sis Qing`er, don’t take offense, okay? That’s a request your father made of me, and he also asked me to take care of you while we’re in the City of Ancient Emperors. However, given Lil Sis Qing`er’s strength, there’s probably no need for me to do that."

Zi Daoyang smiled. If any other person had addressed Qing`er in such a manner, everyone would assume that person was intentionally trying to act close to her, or perhaps they were verbally imposing on her goodwill. However, when Zi Daoyang said it, it only felt natural.

The relationship between those at the immortal emperor level were all extremely complex. How could these juniors understand their ways? But it was true that the Violet Emperor was a very powerful immortal emperor within the immortal realms, and there were several immortal emperors who had chosen to follow him. It wasn’t strange for the Evergreen Immortal Emperor to address the Violet Emperor as an elder brother.

"Please just say my name directly," Qing`er coldly spoke. Zi Daoyang stared at her, before nodding with a smile, "Sure. That’s no problem. In the future, once you leave the City of Ancient Emperors and you find yourself with some free time, you can come and visit my residence anytime with your royal father."

Qing`er didn’t reply. Zi Daoyang’s eyes turned to Qin Wentian and Xuan Yang again. He first spoke to Xuan Yang, "We are all acquaintances here, so there’s no need to continue fighting. Xuan Yang, give me some face and stop this battle. Bring Lengyue and those of your Twin Stars Alliance back with you."

Xuan Yang’s countenance stiffened, becoming extremely unsightly to behold. Zi Daoyang seemed to be intentionally showing to the world that he had a close relationship with Qing`er. In that case, didn’t this mean that he, Xuan Yang, had to give up on his plans to avenge his younger brother, Xuan Xing?

"What?" Zi Daoyang saw the heavy expression on Xuan Yang’s face, and couldn’t help but frown.

"Since you’ve asked, I will give up on this battle. However, Qin Wentian has injured so many people from the Xiao Branch, and even injured Lengyue. How can we simply call it off like this?" Xuan Yang stared at Zi Daoyang as he spoke.

Although Xuan Yang was ranked #4 in the City of Ancient Emperors, and was an extremely famous character himself, he still had to give Zi Daoyang face when he asked for it. Regardless of strength or status, he couldn’t be compared to Zi Daoyang.

Although many people in the City of Ancient Emperors were the descendants of immortal kings or emperors, it didn’t mean there weren’t differences in strength between their respective predecessors. Zi Daoyang’s father was a supremely powerful immortal emperor who even had other immortal emperors under his control. The Violet Emperor was a level stronger compared to the Xuan Emperor.

And this was also the reason why the Xiao Emperor hadn’t dared to make things difficult for Qing`er back then. Those supporting Qing`er, be it the Evergreen Immortal Emperor or Matriarch Ji, they were all stronger than himself. And by right, they shouldn’t have interfered in matters concerning the junior generations. If he acted and made things difficult for Qing`er, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and Matriarch Ji would surely not let it go just like that.

Zi Daoyang turned his gaze back to Qin Wentian after he heard Xuan Yang’s words. He then spoke, "Xuan Yang’s request is not unreasonable.. Since you injured Lengyue, and I’ve already asked Xuan Yang to give up this battle, how about you apologize to Lengyue?"

Qin Wentian stared at this top ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings, Zi Daoyang. At present, he still didn’t understand why Zi Daoyang would choose to appear here, acting as a mediator, as though he wanted everyone to give face to him. Was it purely just to showcase how magnanimous he was?

Given Zi Daoyang’s status, there was no need to do that.

Qin Wentian’s countenance was as cold as ever— he didn’t really like the way Zi Daoyang looked. Although he’d done it openly, Qin Wentian felt really unhappy at hearing Zi Daoyang call out the words ‘Lil Sis Qing`er’. In addition, what made Zi Daoyang qualified to tell Xuan Yang to give up, and then tell him to apologize?

Qin Wentian and Xuan Yang were mortal enemies. After he’d defeated Xiao Lengyue, this Zi Daoyang was now forcibly intervening on the matter. It was obvious that he wanted to use his strength to exert his dominance over everyone here. If it were someone other than Zi Daoyang, would Xuan Yang have compromised?

"Why must I apologize?" Qin Wentian raised his head, looking straight at Zi Daoyang.

The eyes of all the spectators narrowed. This young man in front of Qin Wentian was none other than Zi Daoyang, the top ranker of the Immortal Ascension Rankings! Even Xuan Yang had agreed to a compromise, yet Qin Wentian was actually asking him for a reason why?

Everyone naturally understood that the reason was because of Zi Daoyang’s overwhelming strength!

"You wish to know why?" Zi Daoyang smiled. "Although you obtained the God’s Hand, the lost secret art of Emperor Yi, and could even defeat Lengyue…but you still lack the strength to fight me even if you have broken through to the ninth level in Celestial Phenomenon."

"Hahaha." Qin Wentian coldly smiled. "Didn’t I say that might makes right in the City of Ancient Emperors? When has a winner ever had to apologize to the loser? If you want to suppress me using your strength, simply say it out loud. Why must you beat around the bush, talking like such a hypocrite?"

Hearing truth in those words, everyone turned to look at Zi Daoyang. The moment he arrived, he immediately started conversing with the three supreme beauties. Undoubtedly, he was trying to show off his status and strength.

"After stepping into the ninth level, who can say if I’m weaker or stronger? But you want me to apologize just because of a single sentence from you? Aren’t you overestimating yourself a little too much?" Qin Wentian coldly spoke.

When Zi Daoyang heard Qin Wentian’s words, he didn’t react in anger. He simply stared calmly at Qin Wentian, as his gaze gradually grew sharp. At that moment, Qing`er walked to stand by Qin Wentian’s side, staring at Zi Daoyang who was in the air.

"Qing`er, is he a good friend of yours?" Zi Daoyang glanced at Qing`er as he asked.

Qing`er’s expression was frosty. She simply stared at Zi Daoyang without a reply. Zi Daoyang didn’t take offense and merely smiled, "Since this is the case, I won’t make things difficult for him."

After speaking, his countenance turned gentle once more. He turned to Xuan Yang, "Xuan Yang, this matter shall come to an end here. Uncle Evergreen has instructed me to take care of Qing`er while I’m in the City of Ancient Emperors. You heard what I said earlier; don’t try to cause trouble here ever again."
