Chapter 1539: 1539
The Jialan Emperor Palace was extremely majestic in appearance and the experts within were as numerous as the clouds .
Jialan Monarch didn't question Beiming Youhuang and Qin Wentian after he brought them here . On the contrary, he politely arranged a banquet to host them both .
During the banquet, Qin Wentian even met Jialan Mingyue's mother . Her mother was a very beautiful woman that looked about thirty plus years of age . She actually was also an immortal emperor expert . Every frown and smile of hers could stir the hearts of people but when she glanced at Beiming Youhuang, her eyes flashed with a deep meaning . Instinct told Qin Wentian that she was on her guard against Beiming Youhuang .
"Beiming Youhuang, regardless of your demeanor or cultivation base, they are both extraordinary . After some time, the nine monarchs will gather and head towards the Lifire Palace . At that time, I'll bring you along . The Empyrean will definitely admire you and at that time, I'll ask him to give you a title as my protector . At that time, there's no longer a need for you to be an unaffiliated cultivator . You can enjoy cultivation resources every year . " The Jialan Monarch smiled, as though he had completely forgotten the issue of bandits and only wanted to recruit Beiming Youhuang .
An immortal emperor expert, and such a beautiful immortal emperor . Who would not want to recruit her? Even if she had some misunderstanding with his daughter, it was just a small issue . As long as Beiming Youhuang became his person, all minor matters naturally can be forgotten . As for Qin Wentian . . . the Jialan Monarch didn't even spare a glance at him .
Beiming Youhuang's eyelashes fluttered . Her gaze was still cold as she replied, "Thank you for your kind intentions . It's just that I just exited the mountains and I still wish to roam about first for now . "
"Youhuang, becoming my protector doesn't mean that your freedom would be restricted . At that time, I'll let you do whatever you want to do . " The Jialan Monarch waved his hand, clearly showing his intent to recruit Beiming Youhuang . How would he let her escape from his palm? As one of the nine monarchs, the Jialan Monarch naturally wasn't a simple character .
Qin Wentian inclined his head and drank . He could already tell that if they reject this, the other party definitely wouldn't release them . In fact, they might even directly claim that Qin Wentian and Beiming Youhuang were bandits .
"Senior sister, since the monarch regards you so heavily, why don't you head to the Lifire Palace together with him? It isn't too bad to become a protector . " Qin Wentian interjected . The Jialan Monarch smiled when he heard this as he cast a glance at Qin Wentian .
"However, Monarch, the two of us aren't that clear about matters regarding the external world . Is the status of unaffiliated cultivators really that low?" Qin Wentian asked .
"The Lifelong Realm is the territory of the Lifelong Realmlord . All the cultivation resources are controlled by his subordinates and hence, in this territory, the Realmlord has absolute authority . Regardless of sects or clans, all of them have to submit to him before they can gain some authority and power . As for unaffiliated cultivators, there is no lack of people like this . " The Jialan Monarch laughed . He didn't state openly on how much contempt people usually have for unaffiliated cultivators .
Earlier, Qin Wentian already understood some things from Jialan Mingyue . He could deeply sense how powerful the hegemon of a realm was . This was completely different from the peak powers in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms . Naturally, this also has something to do with cultivation resources . In comparison, the cultivation resources in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms were considered very little . Also, from the words of the Jialan Monarch and his daughter, they seemed to place a very heavy emphasis on cultivation resources .
"Youhuang, what do you think?" The Jialan Monarch laughed .
"Let me consider it . However, I don't mind going along with Monarch to pay my respects to the Lifire Empyrean . " Beiming Youhuang also wished to see what sort of character the lord of the nine monarchs was . Could the Lifire Empyrean really be an ancient emperor? After knowing how strong the Lifelong Realmlord is, Beiming Youhuang sighed silently in her heart . The Azure Mystic Immortal Realms were truly too weak in comparison .
After the banquet ended, the Jialan Monarch told Jialan Mingyue to bring Beiming Youhuang and Qin Wentian to roam Jialan Emperor City . This city was naturally named after the Jialan Monarch . Not only so, once someone took over his position, the city's name would change to match with the newly appointed Monarch as well .
The emperor city was very large . Also, the construction materials for the buildings in the city were all extraordinary in nature . Qin Wentian actually tried attacking it, but given his current cultivation base, he couldn't even leave a scratch behind on the buildings . From this, one could see how tough the foundations of the city were . According to Jialan Mingyue, the vast majority of the buildings here in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, are all constructed using immortal-grade meteor stones, king-grade meteor stones and emperor-grade meteor stones . The more powerful an emperor city is, the more valuable its construction materials would be .
In fact, the entire city seemed like a terrifying cultivation formation, brimming with law energy . For some of the palaces of those powerful characters, they were precisely constructed with an imbued grand formation, purposely suited for their cultivation . Ordinary commoners wouldn't even have the qualifications to stay in the emperor city . Every building was worth its weight in gold and for visitors, they can only spend sky-high prices to stay in an inn or to rent a space .
Hence, inside this emperor city, just a glance would fill one's entire vision with countless immortal kings . Even for those with weaker cultivations, their elders must definitely have some strength for them to be able to come in here .
And because of this, there were many jobs in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms . For example, formation master, building construction, trading in materials, etc… This place was truly exceedingly prosperous .
Qin Wentian and Beiming Youhuang roamed the shops . Every transaction used immortal-grade or king-grade meteor stones . As for them, they were pitifully poor . They also saw the crystal ball used by Jialan Mingyue earlier for sale . However, they could only look at it as they weren't able to afford it .
Upon seeing the smiling look in the eyes of Jialan Mingyue, Qin Wentian felt somewhat embarrassed .
As time passed, the two of them came across an elegant lake, with many decorated dragon boats floating around . There were also many pavilions built on the lake, where beautiful maidens could be seen dancing for the sake of the onlookers . These maidens all wore revealing clothing and were extremely pretty . Despite it being night, the light emitted from the lanterns clearly illuminated every part of their bodies . Many people were sitting in the boats, listening to the zither music and enjoying the dance . Although Beiming Youhuang was an immortal emperor, she had never seen such a luxurious and prosperous city before . She couldn't help but to sigh silently in her heart .
"Youhuang, do you feel like we are frogs in a well?" Qin Wentian stood beside her . The two of them exuded magnificence that would last through the generations, causing many of the people here to glance at them . There was even one who raised his wine cup in their direction and said, "The two of you are truly a match made in heaven . "
