Just when everyone was speculating, among the numerous world overlords on the ancient mountain, a young world overlord in long robes cast his glance at Ten Miles Springwind as he coldly spoke, ?Who did you say is a bastard??

?Huh??

As the sound of this voice rang out, the attention of everyone instantly turned over. Earlier, Ten Miles Springwind said that he didn?t know which bastard has comprehended the Time Monument Inscription a step before him. And now, this young man actually stood out to say something. What did this mean? Could it be…?

Ten Miles Springwind was staring at this person too. A strange look appeared on his face. Could it be that his cursing has drawn the inheritor out?

?You are?? Someone asked. This young world overlord before them didn?t seem too familiar.

?I come from the Sunmoon Sacred Mountain.? The young man calmly spoke. Everyone could see pictures of the sun and moon embroidered on his robes and many had speculated about his identity before this. At this moment, seeing that the young man had spoken personally, their eyes all gleamed with sharpness.

They should have long thought that it would be him. How could they forget to consider a world overlord that came from the Sunmoon Sacred Mountain?

?Who is Old Man Tianshi to you?? A major character asked. After that, many people felt their hearts trembling. Old Man Tianshi was the master of the Sunmoon Sacred Mountain. He was an extremely ancient existence and was even more famous than the Sword Monarch before the Sword Monarch rose up. Also, the power he was most proficient in, has something to do with time.

The power of time from a certain perspective, cannot be considered a type of power. Because, just the power of time alone, it wouldn?t have any substantial attacks but its effects were extremely mysterious and terrifying. This was especially so when this time effect fused together with the heavenheart mandates you comprehended.

?My master.? The young man calmly spoke. ?My name is Yue Changkong. For the convention this time around, I represent the Sunmoon Sacred Mountain.?

?You are his successor?? Someone asked.

?Naturally.? Yue Changkong nodded.

?Did you comprehend the Time Monument Inscription?? An expert from another peak power asked. At this moment, this young man who first appeared in the convention had the eyes of everyone on him. Countless world overlords were staring at him.

The Time King said that he would wait for someone in the future. Was he talking to this young man??

?For the four-sided stone monument, the first three-sides affects the rate of time flow. They are respectively increasing the flow, reducing the flow and halting the flow. As for the final side, it contained an extremely powerful time might and can traverse to the past or to the future. Earlier, Senior Time King?s voice came from the future.? Yue Changkong spoke frankly with assurance. The sunmoon robes he was wearing fluttered with the wind as he exuded boundless magnificence, like a resplendent star in the sky. The attention of everyone was focused on him, in the future, he was bound to be extraordinary.

One couldn?t help but to say that his analysis was extremely close to the truth. He who originally possessed time-attributed powers wouldn?t find it too difficult to sense the change in the flow of time inside the first three sides of the monument. As for the fourth side, it was purely his conjecture. He made this guess after hearing what the Time King has said but everyone couldn?t help but believe in him because his analysis sounded extremely logical, forming a match with the Time King?s words.

In addition, only a single person stood out to say something. In that case, other than him, who else could it be?

A strange expression appeared on Qin Wentian?s face as he stared at this world overlord named Yue Changkong. Even when he was lying, he still did so in such a graceful manner. Because no one stood out to admit, hence he decided to appear as the fake inheritor.

?What sort of power is the Sunmoon Sacred Mountain?? Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to ask Ten Miles Springwind.

?The Sunmoon Mountain is a major power in the Mystic Region. Although it isn?t as large as the Samsara Temple and Clear Sky God Mountain, nobody would dare to antagonize. The reason is because Old Man Tianshi of the Sunmoon Sacred Mountain is immensely powerful. And now that the inheritance of the Time King has been obtained by someone from that sect, it?s undoubtedly akin to a tiger growing wings. What a pity.? Ten Miles Springwind spoke in a somewhat depressed manner.

?He originally already has an impressive background and most probably, he chose to falsely claim that he gained the favor of the Time King because he wanted to rise up in the Mystic Region, gaining the favor of the various major powers. However, there is a risk to this too.? Qin Wentian stared at Yue Changkong. This man truly was extremely audacious and was exceedingly scheming.

Naturally, Qin Wentian wouldn?t stand out to expose him. He was different from Yue Changkong. He had a sensitive origin and in addition, he didn?t have a major power in the Mystic Region acting as his backer. If he admitted that he was the inheritor, he would be placing himself in an extremely risky environment. As to what his situation would be like, that would have to depend on the mood of those characters at the peak. They might favor him but they might also plot against him. He didn?t dare to forget what happened to the ancestor of the Battle Saint Tribe back then. Right now, he has a heavenly deity dao bone and that can be considered a supreme treasure. If others coveted it, wouldn?t they directly dig it out from him? But since this faker Yue Changkong didn?t have anything, he thus doesn?t need to have this worry. He could invent other lies such as he had gained more comprehension into the laws of time.

Hence, their situations were completely different. Since there?s someone like Yue Changkong willing to fake this for him, Qin Wentian was naturally willing to stand at the side to watch. In the future, nobody would notice him and when he really displayed the power of time, he can explain it by saying that he has a time-attributed astral soul. There shouldn?t be anything strange.

As for Yue Changkong, for a period of time, he became the focal point of the entire convention. Characters from the major powers all went over to speak to him. Some congratulated him, some admired him, some wanted to recruit him. At this moment, a major character from a peak power laughed, ?I once met Old Man Tianshi before. Now that I?ve encountered noble nephew here and witnessing your accomplishment, I?m sure your master would be happy for you too. After the convention ends, you will surely have an opportunity to reach an even higher peak.?

?Many thanks for senior?s kind words.? Yue Changkong spoke in a tone neither servile nor overbearing, and had an air of carefreeness as he smiled and thanked them all.

?You can directly address me as uncle, there?s no need to regard me as an outsider.? That major character laughed.

?In that case, your nephew shall comply instead of going against your orders.? Yue Changkong instantly changed his way of speaking. He knew that right now, he should maintain a good relationship with the various major powers. Doing so would only be of benefit to him in case there are some people really plotting against him.

?Who would have thought that we are lucky enough to hear the Time King?s voice and it even came from the future. World Overlord Changkong?s comprehension abilities are extraordinary and in the future, you would surely become a character like Sword Monarch.? Donghuang Ying walked over and smiled. Her charisma was extraordinary. Not only was her talent outstanding, she was also skilled in winning people?s hearts. The elders around her all trusted her to do her responsibilities well.

?Little princess praises me too much. Given your young age and you are already an empyrean, you would definitely step into the world overlord realm sooner or later. Not only that, you have beauty that would cause flowers to shy away. I wonder who would be the lucky one in the future that would win little princess?s heart. How envious I am of him.? Yue Changkong laughed, praising Donghuang Ying?s beauty, and seemingly hinting at something. This caused the genius young man beside Donghuang Ying to stare at Yue Changkong with wariness.

A look of shyness appeared on Donghuang Ying?s face as she blushed, causing her beauty to be even more apparent, stirring the hearts of others, mesmerizing those who looked at her.

?This woman is really an expert. She is acting the same way back then when she tried to recruit you. Now that she?s trying to recruit Yue Changkong, she exudes the potential of her beauty to the max. Given her character, how would she blush so easily?? Ten Miles Springwind transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian.

?Mhm. Donghuang Ying does have some methods. In addition to her natural beauty, it?s easy to cause people to feel good will towards her.? Qin Wentian replied.

?This Yue Changkong is extremely scheming. His words clearly hinted at a hidden meaning. Given his talent and his identity as Old Man Tianshi?s successor, plus him having the inheritance of the Time King, if he really became the son-in-law of the Donghuang Clan, who else would dare to touch him? The various experts of the Mystic Region would only watch as he slowly grows stronger.? Ten Miles Springwind spoke. Qin Wentian naturally understood this. He already knew Yue Changkong was scheming when he faked being the inheritor of the Time King.

Qin Wentian was thinking that if Yue Changkong really had the intention to become the son-in-law of the Donghuang Clan, should he warn Donghuang Ying?

?The Time Monument Inscription has already vanished. The next bout of good fortune probably won?t appear so quickly. I?ll return and cultivate first.? Qin Wentian glanced at the lively crowd as he spoke. Ten Miles Springwind and the others nodded their heads. They didn?t wish to be a part of this liveliness.

?Lei`er, I will return first.? Qin Wentian transmitted his voice. Luoshen Lei replied, ?I?ll head back as well.?

After that, Qin Wentian quietly left. With how lively the ancient mountain was after Yue Changkong revealed himself, there was basically no one who noticed his departure.

After returning, Qin Wentian quietly cultivated as he tried to comprehend the power of the dao bone. In his residential palace, he sealed the space he was in and sat down with his eyes closed. In his chest?s location, formless time energy flowed. This entire space had a flow of time compared to the Time Realm. This dao bone contained extraordinary abilities and was extremely strong and unfathomable.

Qin Wentian was trying to gain insights while simultaneously trying to fuse the time energy into his world heart and heavenheart mandates. In the future, he definitely wanted to comprehend even stronger heavenheart mandates. After he left the Time Realm, he would then seek out a constellation and condense an astral soul from it.

The location Qin Wentian was in was very quiet. But during this period of time, Yue Changkong?s name has already resounded throughout the convention. He accepted visits from everyone and became an extremely famous person while maintaining a good relationship with the various peak powers.

Ten Miles Springwind would occasionally chat with Qin Wentian via voice transmission and the content would usually be gossips. He said that Yue Changkong truly had sinister motives and had the intention to express his good will to Donghuang Ying, causing the flower protector which was the young man always beside Donghuang Ying to be extremely unhappy. The two of them almost came to blows but was stopped by Donghuang Ying. Ten Miles Springwind guessed that Donghuang Ying might eventually forsake her flower protector and choose to be with Yue Changkong.

After all, Yue Changkong?s potential was boundless and a god king was waiting in the future for him.

?Why didn?t I see Brother Qin around during these few days?? And today just so nicely, Donghuang Ying suddenly transmitted a message to Qin Wentian. Since both were already friends, given Donghuang Ying?s method of winning over people?s hearts, she naturally would frequently maintain contact.

Qin Wentian took out his messaging crystal. He felt somewhat hesitant as he replied, ?I heard that recently, little princess has been very busy. There seemed to be a genius wooing you. Little princess, has your heart been moved by the pursuer??

?What? Don?t tell me you are jealous?? Donghuang Ying giggled.

?Little princess, you have met my wives before. How would I have such thoughts?? Qin Wentian laughed. ?Little princess, how do you feel about Yue Changkong?s character??

?He?s a dragon among humans, exuding boundless magnificence with unparalleled talent. Right now, there?s already people guessing that he would soon be able to join a heavenly deity-ranked power.? Donghuang Ying had a very high evaluation of Yue Changkong.

?But when I saw him in the past, when he was speaking with little princess for the first time, his words seemed a little inappropriate, almost to the point of outraging your modesty. As for his character, it?s tough to gauge.? Qin Wentian reminded. He initially didn?t wish to interfere in this. But since Donghuang Ying said that they were friends, he had to remind her no matter what.

Donghuang Ying had a strange expression on her face. After that she smiled, ?Brother Qin, you said that you wouldn?t be jealous but I suspect that you are. You must have felt that he has stolen your glory. But Brother Qin?s achievement of thirteen heavenheart mandates clearly showcases your talent to the world. Although Yue Changkong is a supreme character, his presence wouldn?t mask Brother Qin?s talent. There?s no need to compare yourself to him.?

Donghuang Ying seemed as though she was consoling Qin Wentian, telling him not to compare himself with Yue Changkong. She felt that Qin Wentian was somewhat jealous of Yue Changkong.
