Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The silhouette of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor flashed, appearing before those immortal kings who were being bound as he questioned them personally, "Explain yourselves clearly, or you know the consequences."

These people all had ashen expressions, knowing that their chance of survival were close to nil. They couldn’t help but to silently curse, "Who was it exactly who attempted to assassinate Qin Wentian and Qing`er? Causing all of them to be discovered."

When they were brought to the royal palace, they already knew they wouldn’t be able to flee. Hence, initially they all wanted to conceal their cultivation bases, yet they didn’t expect their concealment to be exposed so easily.

"Your Majesty please spare me, I’m from the Eastern Sage Immortal Sect and I’m on orders to station myself here in your Evergreen Immortal Empire. I have never done anything to harm your empire at all, it’s only because I fear that your Majesty would be mistaken did I not come to the royal palace of my own volition. Please forgive and spare me your Majesty!" An immortal king hurriedly spoke.

Everyone instantly understood that he was a spy sent here by the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. Such things were very common, and spies exist for all the major powers. This was especially so in a situation as extreme as now. It was just that nobody expected the Evergreen Immortal Emperor to be so angry due to the assassination attempt, that he flipped the entire capital upside down.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor coldly glanced at him before turning to the others. "Who is it that planned the assassination?"

As the sound of this voice rang out, all of them shivered, feeling the cold intent in the air.

"If I named the person, would your Majesty please spare my life?" At this moment, a voice rang out. It was none other than the shabby old man who spoke. He knew there was no way for him to escape and now, could only hope to guarantee his life. As an assassin, protecting his own life was the priority. Hence now, he was trying all sorts of methods to stay alive.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor glanced at him, his expression like ice. After that, he waved his hand as an expert from the Evergreen Immortal Empire stepped out. The eyes of this expert were extremely terrifying, and one could tell that this expert must be a master of some unique arts. That sloppy old man’s countenance paled as he instantly knew what was going to happen next.

After that, the vines on his body drilled into him, destroying him from within. The sloppy old man screamed in agony, "Your Majesty, please spare me!"

"Since you took the initiative to cooperate, I can spare your life." The immortal king beside the Evergreen Immortal Emperor then stepped out. His eyes gleamed with a bright light as his will entered the mind of the sloppy old man. The sloppy old man kept on screaming, he could choose to die but who would choose death when there is a chance to live? Amidst the screams of misery, the expert at the side of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor finally obtained the information needed.

The gleaming light vanished from the eyes of the expert. He retreated and spoke to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, "Reporting to your majesty, the true mastermind hid himself very well. Even this man had no idea who the true mastermind behind this is."

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor’s eyes flashed. In that case, doesn’t this mean that they wouldn’t be able to find out?

Swishing sounds rang out again as the vines crippled the old man before flinging him through the horizons, directly sending him flying out of the royal capital. The ending of a lofty immortal king was actually so pitiful.

"Your Majesty, these people might know a thing or two." That expert spoke to the Evergreen Immortal Emperor, his words causing the faces of these people to change, turning pale.

"Since the other party is so cautious, they wouldn’t reveal any flaws. These people at most, they are here to monitor the situation, they wouldn’t know much either." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor calmly spoke. After which, the swishing sounds caused by the vines rang out again as these immortal kings were all dragged into the trunk of the Evergreen Tree before being dissolved and devoured. Numerous screams rang out, those ten plus immortal kings directly vanished from this world just like that. action

This scene caused the remaining immortal kings at the scene to feel their hearts tremble. This, was the prestige of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. That sloppy old man who was crippled and tossed out, and these immortal kings who were used as fertilizer for the Evergreen Tree, whose ending was more pitiful? Most probably, no one could give a definite answer.

But clearly, everyone one in the Eastern Regions of the immortal realms had seen for themselves the aftermath of provoking the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. From now onwards, most probably there would be no one who would dare to come to the Evergreen Immortal Empire to create trouble like this again. That was simply courting death!

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor waved his hands again and in an instant, the branches and vines of the Evergreen Tree retracted and not long after, it grew smaller in size and sank beneath the earth of the empire. The gigantic tree which blotted out the sun vanished just like that, as though it never existed before. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor then spoke to the people in the public square, "Thank you everyone for making this trip here."

"Your Majesty is too polite."

"Being able to witness the splendor of your Majesty with our own eyes, it’s truly fortune we cultivated for three lifetimes." The various immortal kings all bowed, being extremely courteous. Although they were experts of an area as well, the one before them was the emperor of this immortal empire.

"Mhm, everyone you all can return now." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor calmly spoke. After which, the countless immortal kings bowed and retreated, departing the royal palace. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor stared at them as sharpness gleamed in his eyes.

He knew that among these immortal kings, there should still be some spies from the various powers. It was impossible for the other major powers of the eastern regions to not do so but he couldn’t be bothered to sniff them all out. Today, showcasing his power to shock everyone was enough. The purpose was already achieved.

Wanting to create trouble in his capital? One has to pay the price first.

"You guys can leave as well." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor waved his hands as the nobles retreated, having some thoughts in their hearts. After that internal warfare in the past, everyone started to think that their empire was good to bully. A mere immortal king even dared to conduct an assassination attempt here in their capital. Today, the rage of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor would serve as a good lesson to the other powers of the Eastern Regions.

It’s only that the reason for his rage seemed to be because of Qin Wentian. As everyone departed, they all couldn’t help but to cast an additional glance at Qin Wentian.

For some unknown reason, an absurd thought appeared in their hearts. Given how outstanding Qin Wentian’s talent is, if he continues to grow, he would definitely reach an extremely terrifying state. In fact, his achievements might even surpass the descendants of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor.

In that case, the future inheritor of this empire, would it be this prince consort Qin Wentian instead of the sons of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor?

When they thought of this, their hearts trembled, not daring to think about it further. They only told themselves to remember that when they interacted with Qin Wentian in the future, they had to treat him like how they treat the princes.

It was unknown when Qing`er appeared beside Qin Wentian, she gently held his hands.

"Qing`er, Wentian, follow me." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor spoke to them as he headed back to the emperor palace.

The two of them nodded and followed after, entering the Evergreen Immortal Emperor’s residence.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor walked to a pavillion next to a lake in the palace, with his back facing Qin Wentian and Qing`er.

"Qing`er, Wentian, what thoughts do you both have regarding this marriage?" The Evergreen Immortal Emperor asked.

The two of them exchanged a mutual glance, before this Qing`er joked with Qin Wentian, saying that she didn’t mind marrying him twice. However, it was impossible to answer the Evergreen Immortal Emperor like that.

"Your Majesty, do you have any opinions on this?" Qin Wentian asked. This matter was Qing`er’s wedding. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor’s opinion was naturally extremely important.

"I announced to the world, bethroting Qing`er to you. This is something already fixed. Right now, the various major powers of the Eastern Regions are all watching the both of you. My instincts tell me that if you hold a wedding now, things wouldn’t be too peaceful." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor calmly spoke. As an immortal emperor, his instincts would usually be more accurate than others.

In addition, even Qin Wentian had the same feeling as well.

Even before their wedding, their enemies already sent an assassin, wanting Qin Wentian to die. Although they didn’t know who it was exactly, everyone could guess that this surely had something to do with those people who lost the adjudication battle.

"Wentian, the you now is still too weak." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor spoke. Qin Wentian was silent, he knew the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was speaking the truth.

Peak of immortal-foundation was considered extremely powerful to the common people. However, in the perspective of the peak powers of the immortal realms, it was truly weak.

The assassination attempt of Evergreen Yuhao had narrowly caused him his life.

"Hence, I hope that only after you enter the immortal king realm, would you two wed. Although after being in the immortal king realm you would still not have enough power to control the situation, you would, at the very least, have some guarantees of protecting yourself and wouldn’t be in such a sorry state like today." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor continued. Qin Wentian nodded, "I will follow your Majesty’s suggestion."

"It’s good that you understand, Right now, I can already be considered a true elder to you. My actions are naturally for the sake of you both." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor turned and looked at Qin Wentian. "Right now, your cultivation base has already reached the peak of immortal-foundation. At this level, it’s hard for you to find opponents. This is why I arranged for the immortal kings to spar with you. But ultimately, that’s only sparring, there’s no real pressure. It’s better for you to go out and roam to temper yourself. If not, although you already have half a foot across the boundary, it’s unknown how long you would need to finish the step to the immortal king realm."

"Qing`er, the same goes for you as well. You are an innate immortal king and have talent in spatial-attribute energies. To you, the difficulty of crossing the gate to the next realm might be a little lower, but you still have to work hard. You should temporarily set aside emotions and focus on cultivation. Wentian has to break through to the immortal king realm, and you as well." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor seriously spoke. He naturally hoped that his daughter and son-in-law would be powerful. In the future, they would be able to depend on themselves to settle some troubles.

Although the immortal realms might seemed peaceful now, the moment a storm occurred, it would definitely shake the heavens and earth. For example, if they had lost the adjudication battle then, a storm of blood would definitely engulf everything. Their victory merely served the effect of delaying this storm.

"Oh." Qing`er quietly replied, as though somewhat unhappy. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor stared at his daughter as he couldn’t help but to sigh in his heart. "Seems like his daughter valued emotions too much."

"Wentian, you have also seen this assassination attempt. Countless gazes are on you right now. If you head out to temper yourself, you must keep your movements an absolute secret. The best is that you don’t remain here in the Eastern Regions. Think about where you want to go, there’s a teleportation array leading to the Southern Phoenix Clan here. if you are willing, you can head over there." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor spoke once more.

"I intend to return to the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect first." Qin Wentian replied, he had his own thinking. He wanted to head to the Heavenly Talisman Realm first and request the seniors there to send him to the other regions of the immortal realms!
