The Ancient Godly Monarch
Chapter 23: The Crisis

Qin Wentian felt that time had passed quickly in the past two days, as he had left thoughts about anything other than cultivating in madness, while also contemplating the mysteries of the tier 2 divine imprint. After he exhausted the energy of the two Yuan Meteor Stones, he finally stepped into the 7th level of the Refinement Body Realm. As the Astral Energy in his body seeped into his internal organs, his breath strengthened, and every breath he took seemed to contain soaring levels of energy, spirit, and qi. Each casual strike from his fist had a gigantic force of about 50 bulls. Qin Wentian felt that it was still not enough, and he hated the fact that he did not have enough time to increase his cultivation level, to further increase his strength.

As for the other members of the Qin Clan, it felt as if a year had passed for every day that passed. The combined attacks of the three forces outside were getting more and more ferocious, and there would be casualties and deaths at any moment. The tension in the air, as well as the flames of hatred, had already risen to the highest point. There were people in the Qin Clan, who suggested that they should go out, hurry up and clash directly with their enemies. Even if they die, they have to kill the enemy out there.

Qin Wu disagreed. Instead, he gathered the members of the Qin Clan together in the memorial hall, and made an offering in honor of their Ancestor Qin Wu, as it was an Annual Gifting Day.

TL Note: (both old ancestor and Qin Clan ancestor named Qin Wu. Same pronunciation but different meaning.)

After they saluted, the members of the Qin Clan left the memorial hall. As they walked to the Qin Residence, a clan carried a corpse, causing many clan members to shout, "Patriark, let's hurry! If this continues, we will all die. "

"Don't worry, I'm the one they want. I've already contacted our old friend and Qin Clan backer. Once I am imprisoned in the Royal Capital, they will immediately mobilize their forces to save me. "Qin Wu continued," As long as I am in the hands of our enemies, they will be convinced. "

"Dad, no! We can't let you risk yourself like this, "Qin Chuan shook his head, because Qin Wu's meaning is clear. He wanted to sacrifice himself by jumping into the trap voluntarily.

"The prosperity of the Qin Clan, which your grandfather fought for, has declined in my generation, but there is no way I can see it being destroyed in my own hands." Qin Wu smiled bitterly, as he walked over to where Qin Wentian and the others were standing, before rubbing Qin Wentian's head as he gently said to Qin Chuan, "Protect Wentian and the others well, you have to make sure that no damage befalls them."

Qin Chuan, with reddened eyes, deeply lowered his head.

"Grandfather Qin!" Waves of depression appeared in Qin Wentian's heart. Is there really no way to solve this crisis? "

"Patriarch, Clan Leader! The Star River Association has arrived. "At this time, one of the clan members reported this, causing astonishment to flash across Qin Wentian's eyes. Very quickly, astonishment turned into hope. Perhaps, this was the opportunity they had been waiting for.

"Quickly, invite them." Qin Chuan stated, and before long, the silhouettes of several figures were seen walking, and a few others behind, carrying some, heavy courier bags.

"Patriarch Qin, my name is Murin, and I'm here to look for Young Master Wentian." This person, was the person Qin Wentian had passed that day in the Star River Association, coincidentally – Murin. In addition to Murin himself, he also brought some friends, namely the arrogant girl from before, and of course, Francis.

Qin Wu lightly nodded his head, as Qin Wentian walked forward as he replied, "Greetings to Grandmaster Murin."

"Qin Wentian, I have examined the divine imprint you wrote. Not only are they extremely complicated, the aura they exude is also incredible.You have the qualifications to join my Star River Association, and become my disciple. ”Murin said, while looking at Qin Wentian.

"Grandmaster, if you want." Qin Wentian did not immediately reply, as he passed the divine imprint he had written on the iron sheet to Murin. Murin's eyes shone with a resplendent light, this young man before him could actually write down a tier 2 divine imprint. Not only that, the trace design as well as the secret lines were exquisite, and not to mention the types of divine imprints written on, was something Murin had never even seen before.

"If I agree to Grandmaster Murin's request, and join the Star River Association, will Grandmaster Murin be willing to protect my Qin Clan?" Qin Wentian looked at Murin, as he pleaded.

Murin froze, before lightly shaking his head, "The Qin Clan's matter is too complicated, and within it, there are too many unknown variables. Even though I am from the Star River Association, I do not have the strength to interfere with this too much. However, I can guarantee that as long as you agree to my request, I can immediately take you to a safe place. "

"Wentian, agree to his request." Qin Wu and Qin Chuan both urged. However, Qin Wentian was extremely disappointed. If the Qin Clan could not be protected, and he was the only one who left, seeking safety while the other clans were in danger, what would make him?

As he thought about it, Qin Wentian shook his head, "Grandmaster Murin, I cannot accept your request."

"Please reconsider, considering your talent, as long as you agree, in the future, you will have whatever you want, including the chance to avenge your Qin Clan." Murin.

"Guaranto!" Qin Chuan and the others looked at Qin Wentian, this child!

However, Qin Wentian still insisted on not accepting, "If you can guarantee the safety of my Qin Clan, I will definitely accept it."

Murin looked towards Qin Wentian, as he bitterly smiled and shook his head, "My abilities are not enough, and yet, I still do not want to lose a talent like you. How about while being a guest of my Star River Association, while you consider my request? In this way, although I have no way to interfere with the matter that the Qin Clan is currently facing, I believe that as long as you manage to arrive at my Star River Association as a guest, I will believe that as long as you manage to arrive at my Star River Association as a guest, no one dares to move badly.will towards you once you are there. "

Qin Wentian's eyes shone with a gleam as he bowed slightly, "Thank you Grandmaster Murin. I am willing to be a temporary guest for the Star River Association. "

"Good! I hope you will arrive safely at the Star River Association. I'll be waiting for you. "Murin patted Qin W's shoulder as he left. Francis, who was standing behind Murin, waved his hand for the servants to come forward. They unfolded the package, revealing a large number of divine weapons lying on the ground.

“This is my entire creation. Eight tier 1 upper divine weapons, and 37 mid-level tier 1 divine weapons. ”Francis frantically created as many divine weapons as possible in the past two days, and has brought them all here.

"Thank you very much." Qin Wentian passed the iron sheet with a tier 2 divine imprint written on it, to Francis. Francis expressed excitement and admiration, similar to insanity after trade, and also, departed from the Qin Clan.

"This divine weapon, will be able to increase the strength of our Qin Residence to a certain extent, Wentian, choose what you want, and for the rest, Qin Chuan you are responsible for distributing it," qin Wu's Order. Qin Wentian nodded, because after some contemplation, he decided to choose a long spear. The spear was similar to a dragon, hard and tyrannical, which was suitable for him.

Qin Wu's body flickered, as he rushed out of the Qin Residence.

"Dad!" Qin Chuan immediately rushed out, following Qin Wu's silhouette. Meanwhile, chaos was rife everywhere in the Qin Residence. Those who had the ability to fight, went to increase the ranks of the Qin Clan's forces, while the defenders remained on guard in predetermined strategic positions.

Immediately after, as soon as Qin Wu appeared, Asura Wu waved his hand and the troops under their command stopped their attack. However, at this moment, the flame light from the flame that was currently attacking the Qin Residence was so strong that it had already reached the sky, and many of the enemy forces that took advantage of the chaos had already infiltrated the Qin Residence. They were engaged in battle with the defenders.

After seeing the scene happening right before their eyes, the external spectators all sighed in their hearts. It was as if they were witnessing the extermination of the Qin Clan before their eyes.

"Asura Wu, I will go with you, but you must set aside the rest of my clan."

Qin Wu slowly walked towards Asura Wu and the rest of the enemy forces.

"Because you are so easy, of course, I will spare the members of your clan." Asura Wu smiled, "But the prerequisite is that I should be able to guarantee that you don't have any tricks up your sleeve, and that you'll 'I'll leave peacefully with me. ”

As his voice faded, the two knights brandishing their spears advanced towards Qin Wu.

Qin Chuan and the others clenched their hands tightly, as streams of sweat flowed. They're all very nervous.

Suddenly, the two knights simultaneously readied their spears in position, as they attacked with immense force. Two "pop" sounds rang out, only for them to see that the two spears were directly embedded into Qin Wu's two thighs, piercing them cleanly. As fresh blood flowed out, two large bloody cavities had appeared.

"DAD!"

"FAMILY CHIEF!"

Qin Chuan and the rest of the clan members bellowed furiously, and rushed forward, but Qin Wu's thunderous voice stopped them in their tracks. "Don't move."

They saw Qin Wu's body crumbling to the ground, clearly unable to stand up anymore. The expressions of the Qin Clan members turned pale, filled with flames of fury and burning hatred, while the Asura Wu warhorse, slowly dashed to Qin Wu's side, looked at Qin Wu, and looked at Qin Wu, as an evil glint glimmered across his body. "Old man Qin Wu, the man who truly determines. However, I have not finished my sentence. I will spare the Qin Clan on the condition that they stop their resistance – and the members of the younger generation I mentioned earlier still come with me. "

After saying that, the cold voice of Asura Wu commanded, "Take Qin Wu away!"

There were many warriors directing their spears at Qin Wu, as they moved forward – as if they were hesitant out of fear of him. However, Qin Wu no longer had the strength to resist, and was thus escorted by them. As he was taken away, he called out his strength and shouted the final sentence. "Qin Chuan, remember what I said."

"Sister, kill them, kill them all!" Qin Ye's eyes were filled with fury, almost bordering on madness.

"Qin He, Qin Ye, listen to my orders. Escort Qin Yao, Qin Wentian and the others out of here. ”Qin Chuan stared at the back of his father, as his gaze turned cold, and a frightening tone appeared in his voice. Qin Ye originally wanted to argue, but after seeing the expression that Qin Chuan shot at him, his heart trembled violently as he agreed, "Sister, I will obey your orders. Come outside! "

Afterwards, Qin Ye led the members of the younger generation, retreating back to the Qin Residence. Qin Wentian turned his back, looking at the distant silhouette of Qin Wu, as well as the evil gaze of Asura Wu, the unceasing flames began to burn in his heart.

"The rest, Kill THEM!" Qin Chuan's orders, and instantly, the Qin Clan's forces unleashed their Astral Souls, while advancing forward as the sounds of clashes formed a frenzied sound echoed in the air, filled with blood, solemnity, and tragedy.

The warhorse sped forward, as the three armies moved like raging winds, sped forward to meet the Qin forces' assault, and instantly erupted into bloody battle.

"We're going to escape through the West Gate. Brother has arranged for a defender there, who is waiting to escort us. "Qin He leads the younger generation, as they run into crazy sprints. And in the midst of that chaos, Qin Yao and Qin Wentian each dashed towards where they were staying.

"Second Uncle, I'll go and meet with mom – you guys go to the west gate first." Qin Yao's eyes were filled with tears. He witnesses his father being involved in a bloody battle, but he flees alone.

Very quickly, running fast, Qin Wentian and Qin Yao arrived at the courtyard where they were staying. Qin Yao went to look for her mother while Qin Wentian wanted to look for Uncle Black. Uncle Black sat quietly inside the training ground, and looked extremely calm, as he handed the star-shaped object to Qin Wentian as he said, "Wentian, when your life is in absolute danger, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, when you're in absolute danger, put Astral Energy into this to activate it . "

"Uncle Black, come with me." Qin Wentian wanted to carry Uncle Black on his back, only to see Uncle Black stuff a star-shaped item into his hand as he said, "Relax, even if the Qin Clan loses the battle, the Qin clan lost the battle, and the enemy forces killed all the loyal troops and descendants of the Qin Clan, no one would care about an unrelated old man like me. After all, the Royal Clan still wanted their faces. ”

"No way." Qin Wentian knew that Black Uncle was afraid that he would burden him, as he replied angrily dyeing his tone.

"Believe in my judgment, all this time, when have I ever been wrong before?" Uncle Black smiled, as he continued, "Remember this: you are only allowed to use this, when your life is in absolute danger. Quickly leave, do not burden the other Qin Clan members. "

Qin Wentian took a few steps back, as he knelt on the ground, kowtowing three times before he left. For many years, Uncle Black was the one who educated him and took care of him. He understood the personality of Black Uncle very well. As soon as Uncle Black decided on something, nothing could change his mind. As Uncle Black said, even if the Qin Clan is defeated, the enemy army is still the representative of the Royal Clan, he said, and would not slaughter ordinary workers and people unrelated to the Qin Clan carelessly. Black Uncle was not someone important in the Qin Clan, and would be safer here, compared to going with him. After all, Qin Wentian was someone on the wanted list. If Uncle Black came with him, he might be in even more grave danger.
