The immortal king of the Star River Association laughed when he heard his proposal . Qin Wentian wanted to trade himself for Lin Xian`er's safety?
Naturally, this wouldn't be a problem . Lin Xian`er was nothing to him, merely a human of a particle world . As long as he could capture Qin Wentian, they could easily solve all the troubles that the association faced .
"Alright, I agree to the exchange . Come over here, and I will immediately release her," said the immortal king from the Star River Association as he stared at Qin Wentian .
"Young Lord Qin, you mustn't do this . " The experts from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect all frowned . Given Qin Wentian's status, it was truly not worth it to use his life in exchange for the safety of someone from a particle world . The Star River Association's original purpose was to capture Qin Wentian, and they had even sent out immortal kings to do so . They hadn't expected Qin Wentian to have something like the ancient Driftsnow City, which could defend against the immortal king's attacks . If not, Qin Wentian would have long been captured and the immortal king would have long since left this particle world .
Right now, Qin Wentian wanted to throw himself into the net . This was an extremely dangerous thing to do .
After capturing Qin Wentian, the immortal king would immediately leave this world and head to the immortal realms . At that time, it wouldn't be easy for the others to rescue Qin Wentian .
"Listen to my orders," Qin Wentian commanded . The immortal kings from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect fell silent . Lin Xian`er's beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian, and a smile appeared on her face as she said, "Sir Qin, Xian`er's life isn't as valuable as yours . There's no need to care for Xian`er . If fortune does not permit Xian`er to live, then just avenge me if you are able to do so . "
"Be quiet!" snarled the immortal foundation expert holding her . Making a slicing motion with his hand, he tore off a sleeve, revealing her smooth white arm . Lin Xian`er froze as her expression changed .
"I won't kill you, but I can leave you absolutely naked . Do you think I won't?" threatened the immortal foundation expert . Qin Wentian stared at him, "Trust me, you're already dead . "
The immortal foundation expert stared at Qin Wentian as he said coldly, "It looks like you're quite concerned about her . In that case, I'd really like to see how you'd kill me . "
He radiated an immortal might that enveloped Lin Xian`er . He could take her life away as long as he willed it . Even though there were immortal kings nearby, it wouldn't be so easy to save her unless they launched an ambush to kill him before he could react .
"So do you still want to exchange yourself for her or not?" continued the immortal king from the Star River Association .
"Sure . But once I walk over, she has to be released as well . " Qin Wentian's face was expressionless .
"No . To immortal kings, the distance they can travel with a step is simply overwhelming . What if they whisk you both away together? If you wish for a sincere exchange, you must come here first . Only then will I guarantee to release her . " That immortal king was extremely crafty . Immortal king characters were just too powerful; if Qin Wentian and Lin Xian`er walked to the center and the immortal kings on their side acted, no one would be able to stop them .
"You are using the life of an innocent to threaten me . This clearly shows that you are a despicable man . Do you think your words are trustworthy?" Qin Wentian asked as he stared at his opponent .
"It's up to you whether you want to believe me or not . She's useless to me . After capturing you, why would I still need her?" The Star River Association's immortal king maintained his calm demeanor .
"Alright, let's make the exchange . " Qin Wentian stepped out, moving towards Lin Xian`er and the immortal foundation expert who guarded her .
"Come over here," said the immortal king from the Star River Association . Qin Wentian's strength was quite high, so he couldn't relax at seeing Qin Wentian walk towards the immortal foundation expert .
"Okay . " Qin Wentian shifted direction, moving towards the immortal king . In this instant, the atmosphere grew extremely tense with both sides caught in a mutual state of hostility . It felt like a battle could break out at any moment .
During such a tense time, everything could erupt the moment someone made a move .
Lin Xian`er's beautiful eyes stared at Qin Wentian, feeling moved in her heart . Although she and Qin Wentian were friends, that was from a period of time of more than two decades ago . Too many years had passed, and their friendship wasn't so deep that it could easily stand the test of time . . This was especially so when considering Qin Wentian's status after his return from the immortal realms . He was someone who could effortlessly slay immortal foundation experts—someone with an existence stronger than even the Sacred Emperor all those years ago .
And not too long ago, he used the ancient city to slay over ten immortal foundation experts belonging to the Star River Association .
Now, several immortal kings and numerous immortal foundation experts from the immortal realms had been sent there, with all of them awaiting his command and addressing him as Young Lord Qin . What status and identity did he have? Yet, he was willing to put himself in danger by participating in this hostage exchange .
"Sir Qin, why are you treating Xian`er so nicely?" Lin Xian`er's voice was gentle and soft, and she sighed in her heart . She had once fantasized marrying a peak supreme genius that exuded magnificence throughout the generations in this particle world . For example, the eight era-suppressing geniuses of yesteryear . But now, the time of the era-suppressing geniuses had long since passed . Qin Wentian alone was more outstanding compared to all of them and such a character was actually willing to go through with this for her safety .
"Xian`er, you once helped me before . In addition, are we not friends? How can I possibly watch you suffer without stepping in?" Qin Wentian replied . When he was halfway there, he suddenly stopped . "I'm already at the halfway mark, so isn't it about time to release her?"
In that moment, numerous streams of immortal might enveloped Qin Wentian . The immortal kings from the Star River Association and the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect were all ready to act at any given moment .
And so, only Qin Wentian could move . If either side were to act, a battle would erupt instantly .
The immortal foundation expert holding onto Lin Xian`er turned and glanced at his immortal king . The other party cast a glance at him as he nodded and released Lin Xian`er .
Qin Wentian continued moving forward, but now, he shifted his direction once again to walk closer to Lin Xian`er .
"What are you trying to do?" barked the immortal king from the Star River Association .
"Since we are doing this exchange, I have to see that she's alright . " Qin Wentian glanced at the immortal king as he continued on his way, moving towards the immortal foundation expert holding Lin Xian`er .
The immortal foundation expert furrowed his brows tightly, while the immortal king snorted coldly, stepping out towards Qin Wentian . In that moment, everyone had fixed their attention on Qin Wentian .
"Release her!" Qin Wentian suddenly roared as his immortal foundation radiated immortal might . The immortal foundation expert similarly responded in kind .
"Courting death . " The immortal king appeared behind Qin Wentian and pierced out directly with a finger attack as he aimed for Qin Wentian's body . Its destructive energy rushed into Qin Wentian to destroy his immortal foundation .
"HOW DARE YOU?!"
Roars of anger erupted at the same moment as immortal light illuminated everything . A fearsome defensive energy gushed forth from Qin Wentian as a silhouette manifested . A superior, overwhelming might swept over everything in the heavens and earth, terrifying to the extreme .
"Immortal sense . " The expression of that immortal king from the Star River Association drastically changed, his heart sinking from the realization that he'd been tricked . Qin Wentian had intentionally baited him into attacking, and now, he only had time to shout out a warning to his subordinate, "CAREFUL!"
He tried to warn the immortal foundation expert holding onto Lin Xian`er . Right now, everyone's attention was on Qin Wentian as they stared at the silhouette projected by his protective strand of immortal sense . In an instant, a black ray of light shot forth, drilling into the head of the immortal holding on to Lin Xian`er . It destroyed his mind before he even had a chance to react . The moment he died, an immortal king from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect whisked Lin Xian`er away to safety .
Another immortal king hurried before Qin Wentian, enveloping him with his immortal might and brought him away to safety as well . Right now, Lin Xian`er was still in a daze—everything had happened too fast . When immortal kings acted, their movements were too quick for her to see clearly and everything had happened within an instant . Qin Wentian pulled her back while an expert stood in front of them and acted as a guard .
"Xian`er, everything is fine now . " Qin Wentian smiled at Lin Xian`er who was still feeling dazed . Lin Xian`er's beautiful eyes flickered as she gradually snapped out of her befuddlement . She had always been very strong, but until this moment, she had never realized how fragile and weak she really was . Her fate wasn't in her hands and she had been helpless to do anything when she was kidnapped . She had only felt protected through Qin Wentian's actions .
In the battlefield, the immortal king from the Star River Association was now completely surrounded . His eyes stared at the projected immortal sense before him . His earlier attack had been enough to slaughter Qin Wentian, which had activated his protective strand of immortal sense, and thus saving his life .
"Is that Senior Thousand Transformations?" asked the immortal king .
"Since you know who I am, do you still dare to attempt and kill Qin Wentian? It looks like you lot have intended this from the beginning . " The countenance of the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord was extremely cold .
"Junior is only obeying orders . I hope Emperor Lord can show mercy to me," begged the immortal king .
"Qin Wentian, you decide . " The projection of the Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord's immortal sense stared at Qin Wentian . And when his gaze landed on Lin Xian`er, who stood beside Qin Wentian, she felt a hint of nervousness .
This Emperor Lord was a character that immortal kings were respectful to . What level of existence was he? She couldn't imagine it .
"Kill him . " Qin Wentian's voice was ice-cold . The Thousand Transformations Emperor Lord nodded, "Do as Wentian commands . "
"Roger . " His subordinates obeyed, and a wall of immortal light instantly manifested, locking the space away completely . The battle prowess of immortal kings was too terrifying . They could destroy this entire world if they chose to fight . Hence, they had to limit the boundaries of the battlefield .
"You actually wasted the protective immortal sense of an Emperor Lord for a mere female from a particle world? That's the equivalent to your own life!" the immortal king roared in anger as he stared at Qin Wentian . In that moment, a terrifying tempest swept through the space, uprooting the entire Star River Association . This tempest seemed to herald the end of the world . From afar, the spectators stared in mind-numbing shock as they watched on with trembling hearts .
—BOOM!— The tempest wrenched everything off the ground, and in the next moment, numerous beams of light shot towards the immortal king from the Star River Association, destroying him completely . The people of the Royal Sacred City were all witnessing a battle on the immortal level .
"The immortal sense of an Emperor Lord is equivalent to one life…" Lin Xian`er mumbled as she stood beside Qin Wentian . She glanced at Qin Wentian, whose features looked more outstanding than ever before . A moment later, a radiant smile appeared on her face, making her so beautiful that almost every man would be besotted if they saw her .
With this experience, it could be said that Lin Xian`er's life hadn't been a waste . There was actually someone who would stand against the powers from immortal realms for her, someone who would sacrifice something equivalent to a life . In this entire particle world, what woman wouldn't enjoy such preferential treatment?
