The speed of their departure was extremely quick. They knew that after the Dragon Pool Manor received news, they would definitely send reinforcements within the shortest period of time. How strong was the immortal sense of a world overlord? It was able to cover an extremely vast amount of land. But naturally, Time City was extremely vast. Just this city alone was even larger compared to the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. From this, one could very well imagine how terrifying the size of main cities in the Mystic Region are.

If not, given some extremely strong major powers who had developed for countless years with their populations in the billions, where would they be able to stay?

The powers here in Time City all controlled a large area of territories. For example, a power like the Dragon Pool Manor can be considered a supreme empire.

How fast is the speed of world overlords? They could travel a million miles in an instant. After the five of them came out of the tower, they sped towards a certain direction and entered the heart domain of Ten Miles Springwind. This was like a unique space in the void, allowing one to travel through endless distance in an instant. After a few moments, Qin Wentian soon felt that they were moving out of the void, appearing in a courtyard.

“Hu…” Ten Miles Springwind drew in a deep breath. With a wave of his hand, he sealed the space in the void and smiled, “Awesome, but it was a little dangerous. There seemed to be a world overlord hunting the void outside my unique space trying to lock on to me. Luckily I was fast enough and shook him off.”

“We are back at the inn now?” Qin Wentian started as he asked.

“Naturally, what did you expect?” Ten Miles Springwind had a strange look on his face as he looked at Qin Wentian.

“This…” Qin Wentian was actually speechless to reply. Wasn’t that speed a little too terrifying? This was the power of Ten Miles Springwind’s world heart, truly unfathomable.

“You guys return first. I will temporarily store the treasures away and we will split the loot tomorrow. I’m afraid the investigation of the Dragon Pool Manor will soon lead them here.” Ten Miles Springwind spoke. The others nodded. Old Ghost then stated, “Let’s disperse.”

After speaking, his silhouette disappeared with a flash of light. He naturally wouldn’t feel that it was safe because they had returned to the inn.

Qin Wentian instantly understood after he thought about it a little. He returned to the place where he stayed in before. Although he has stepped into the World Overlord Realm, it was true that he was still unfamiliar with how world overlords do things and he was still thinking through things with his perspective in the past. However, things were different now. He is already a world overlord and the major powers he come in contact with are all extremely strong ones. For example a power like the Dragon Pool Manor, they would be able to carry out investigations in places they can investigate, in an extremely short period of time. As for those other major powers that are even larger and stronger than them, Qin Wentian’s group naturally wouldn’t even try to offend such powers.

As expected, not long after, a powerful immortal sense swept through the Ten Miles Inn. Ten Miles Springwind’s figure soared up and appeared in the air as he spoke with some unhappiness in his tone, “Sir, what do you mean by this?”

The customers who were staying in the inn were all shocked. All of them walked out and had unhappy looks on their faces as they stared into the air.

“I apologize for disturbing all of you. Today, my Heaven Immortal Tower was robbed and we are now currently investigating. Please pardon us.”

“That is your business, what does it have to do with my inn? How dare you disturb my inn’s business. Scram.” Ten Miles Springwind coldly spoke, sounding extremely domineering. That world overlord furrowed his brows but after that, he still clasped his hands, “I’ve disturbed everyone. Farewell then.”

Even for people of the Dragon Pool Manor, it was impossible for them to offend all the world overlords here. During this time, Time City had many crouching tigers and hidden dragons and those who stayed in the inn might be from superpowers in the Mystic Region. It was naturally not too good to lose all cordiality with them.

This night was destined not to be calm. Who;e the Dragon Pool Manor investigated Time City, a commotion was caused throughout the city. The news of the Heaven Immortal Tower being plundered circulated everywhere swiftly.

To think that there would actually be people who were so crazy, daring to rob the Heaven Immortal Tower. This was simply too audacious. It was rumored that this robbery happened in a very short span of time. The bandits controlled the three world overlords of the Heaven Immortal Tower. The other world overlords who were shopping in the Heaven Immortal Tower also didn’t dare to make any reckless moves as they were being controlled. For those outside the tower, it was possible that they didn’t even notice it when the robbery started and only discovered something was wrong some time later.

Tonight, many major characters exploded in anger, angrily reacting to the probes by the people of the Dragon Pool Manor. They naturally didn’t feel good when there were immortal senses spying on them. In fact, there were some world overlords from the Dragon Pool Manor that were forcefully captured. The Dragon Pool Manor had to provide a proper explanation before their world overlords were released. After all, those major characters also didn’t want to offend the Dragon Pool Manor thoroughly. This was something understandable.

But despite the fast reaction speed of the Dragon Pool Manor, they found no clues when they launched their investigations. The bandits fled too quickly, vanishing into the void instantly with no traces they could follow. Everyone could guess that they had definitely mingled into the crowd but what could the Dragon Pool Manor do? Now, there are so many world lords in Time City, who could be sure who the culprit was?

Many people guessed that since they failed to capture anyone at the initial investigation, it would be even tougher for them to find the culprits in the future. After all, for experts strong enough to plunder the Heaven Immortal Tower, they would definitely not be ordinary people. How could they give you a second chance to catch them?

The commotion this caused lingered for a period of time. Qin Wentian and the others received their split of loot secretly.

The robbery of the Heaven Immortal Tower was a major event. The Dragon Pool Manor naturally was no longer free to find trouble for Qin Wentian. Right now, they were trying to trace the culprits from Old Huo and the two world overlord’s descriptions of the heavenheart mandates used against them. After all, it was impossible to change the power of their heavenheart mandates but the people from the Dragon Pool Manor soon discovered that they could find no clues at all.

Several days later in the Ten Miles Inn, Qin Wentian just came back after drinking with Ten Miles Springwind and the others. Back then, Ten Miles Springwind said that he had already ran out of that alcohol but for the next few days, he was able to produce several jars of that wine every day. Also, he would always say that he had already ran out, but the reality wasn’t as such. Qin Wentian finally understood one thing. Ten Miles Springwind’s words clearly couldn’t be trusted. This was especially so when it came to matters of wine.

In the room, only Qing`er and Qingcheng were currently beside him. Before them, there were a dazzling lineup of accessory-type treasures. Only then did they know that the robbery of the Heaven Immortal Tower that shook the entirety of Time City was actually done by Qin Wentian and his group of newly acquainted friends.

“Wentian, don’t do such a dangerous thing in the future.” Qingcheng softly spoke. It was because of her that Qin Wentian had a grudge with the Heaven Immortal Tower.

“How would there be danger?” Qin Wentian smiled. He searched through the pile to find treasures suitable for Qing`er and Qingcheng. But since these were loot from the Heaven Immortal Tower, it was naturally not appropriate for them to wear it out in Time City as it was inconvenient. But even so, they could keep some of the treasures by their side first.

“Come and take your pick. Although these are loot, they are from the Heaven Immortal Tower. There’s no need to feel guilty.” Qin Wentian smiled. Mo Qingcheng nodded and smiled too. Just a single treasure from the Heaven Immortal Tower would cause many to be filled with envy, causing bounty hunters to hunt them. She naturally was very clear of what the consequences would be if they are really captured. But now, Qin Wentian has actually plundered the Heaven Immortal Tower instead and obtained so many treasures.

Qingcheng chose a few extremely exquisite accessory-type treasures, she also helped Qing`er to choose, “Elder sis Qing`er, these are very suitable for you. If you wear this phoenix crown, you would surely cause this fellow to be extremely mesmerized.”

“I don’t want.” Qing`er felt a little shy as she shook her head.

“No way, after we return to the Qingcheng Sainthall, I will definitely make you wear it.” Mo Qingcheng giggled. At this moment, her gaze landed on a pendant among the pile of treasures. This pendant was actually glowing resplendently, drawing her attention. Qin Wentian and Qing`er also stared at the pendant in bewilderment. Qin Wentian spoke, “This pendant is a little strange, I wonder what sort of treasure it is.”

Mo Qingcheng stretched her hand out and placed the pendant on her neck. At the moment the pendant came in contact with Mo Qingcheng, the glow it radiated suddenly intensified and illuminated the entire room. Also, the energy fluctuations from it began to seep out. With a wave of his hand, a formless and powerful might enveloped the energy fluctuations, wanting to stop the seepage.

His gaze turned to Mo Qingcheng only to see that at this moment, Mo Qingcheng’s body was also glowing. A phoenix gown shimmered in and out of existence, draped around her body. Phoenix wings also manifested behind her back, causing Mo Qingcheng to hover in the air. As for the pendant, it actually seemingly sank into her body, as though it wanted to fuse together with her. A complicated-looking diagram then manifested, resembling an immensely powerful formation that was brimming with light. In an instant, a huge burst of power gushed forth from the pendant, frenziedly seeping into Mo Qingcheng’s body.

“Ah…” Mo Qingcheng cried in shock, as though she had no way to endure this terrifying burst of power. A look of agony could be seen on her face as her expression drastically changed.

“Qingcheng!” Shock filled Qin Wentian’s features. With a flash of his silhouette, he wanted to hug Mo Qingcheng but a formless terrifying might burst out from her and directly forced him back. Right now, he was a world overlord existence but the power radiating from the pendant was actually able to force him back. This was simply unimaginable.

His countenance turned as pale as paper as he rushed forward once more. This time, he exerted even greater force and he finally broke through the forcefield and managed to hug Mo Qingcheng. Right now, Mo Qingcheng was in extreme pain. Qing`er who was at the side, had also turned pale with fright. She wanted to rush forward but her body basically couldn’t even get near.

“What’s going on?” Qin Wentian didn’t understand. How would an accessory radiate such fearsome powers? What sort of treasure was this exactly? The phoenix gown was a gift from his mother, brought by Uncle Black for Qingcheng and has long fused as one with Mo Qingcheng’s body. Right now, why did it take the initiative to appear? Was it for protecting Mo Qingcheng?

At this moment, Qin Wentian was afraid. It was very rare for him to be afraid like this, while feeling so helpless at the same time. He didn’t know what he should do.

“I’m fine.” Mo Qingcheng gritted her teeth and spoke when she saw how worried Qin Wentian was.

“Qingcheng.” Qin Wentian hugged her tightly. Nothing must happen to Qingcheng!

…

At this moment in the Xuan Region, at a location extremely faraway from Time City, there was a group of experts currently rushing to somewhere. But at this moment, the woman in the lead halted her steps. After that, the people behind her halted as well.

This woman exuded boundless magnificence. She looked very young, roughly about the age of twenty. She also had an extremely beautiful face that would cause the world to stare at her in awe. Her body was covered by a layer of holy divine light but her cultivation base was very terrifying, at the world overlord realm.

“Miss, what’s wrong?” An old man beside her asked.

“Why?” The woman mumbled, a doubting tone could clearly be heard in her voice, causing people in the surroundings to feel puzzled.

“There’s definitely nothing wrong with my senses. That item is really in Time City. However, why is there someone else that can activate it? That item should belong to me by right.” The young woman mumbled. The old man beside her trembled suddenly. That treasure was activated? How can this be possible?

After that, he smiled bitterly. Back then, his young miss tossed the item away willfully. She most probably didn’t expect that this would happen!
