Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The Evergreen Tree was the supreme treasure of the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Without a war, it would never be activated. But today, because of an assassination attempt. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor actually summoned it. From this, one could see how important Qin Wentian was to him.

Naturally, there was another reason. Just like what the Evergreen Immortal Emperor has said, daring to assassinate his son-in-law in his capital, if he didn’t find out who the culprit was, wouldn’t that mean that the prestige of his empire was challenged? In the future, any tom, dick and harry would dare to do whatever they wanted here.

Even if the other party was hiding in the shadows, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor wanted the culprit to die.

No matter who they are, no matter how many people were involved in this, as long as they were in the royal capital, all of them had to die.

In the capital, countless people lifted their heads, staring at the gigantic ancient tree blotting out the sky. The vast majority had no idea what just happened, they still thought that there were enemy immortal emperors here to invade them.

The speed of expansion for the Evergreen Tree was simply too terrifying, instantly reaching the place where the assassination attempt took place. The experts there knew what was going on, their hearts all trembled when they saw the tree. To think that the Evergreen Immortal Emperor actually summoned the Evergreen Tree to deal with the person hiding in the shadows.

In just an instant, the Evergreen Tree’s branches and vines continued extending forth. Down below on the ground, a sloppy-looking old man inclined his head as sharpness gleamed in his eyes. In the next instant, his heart shuddered.

Had the Evergreen Immortal Emperor gone mad? Summoning the ancient Evergreen Tree for a failed assassination attempt. What did he want to do exactly?

He had lived for countless years and assassinated countless experts. Even for immortal kings, he had assassinated several before, and his failure rate was close to zero. Even if he failed, he was always able to retreat safely. As a powerful assassin, he always believed that the mission completion wasn’t his number one priority. His own safety would always be his number one priority.

No matter when, as long as he guaranteed his own safety, he could always try again even if he failed.

But now when he saw the ancient Evergreen Tree, panic arose in his heart. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor was determined to source out who the person in the shadows was.

Despite his glorious past achievements, he would still feel fear when facing against a character like the Evergreen Immortal Emperor.

He wanted to flee the capital but when he saw how quickly the ancient tree was extending, he understood that if he chose to flee now, the only ending for him would be death.

Very swiftly, the vast royal capital of the Evergreen Immortal Empire was completely enveloped by the ancient Evergreen Tree. Boundless green light cascaded downwards, while the people below all stared up in confusion, not knowing what happened exactly.

"I, am the Evergreen Emperor." A voice suddenly emitted from the ancient tree. When the people of the capital heard the voice, all of them trembled slightly. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor was speaking.

"Some time ago, my beloved daughter Qing`er and my son-in-law Qin Wentian was met with an assassination attempt in the capital of my empire." The voice of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor rang out, causing the hearts of everyone to shake as they finally understood the reason. Did something happen to Princess Qing`er and Qin Wentian?

"Luckily, they were unharmed." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor continued. "However, the person in the shadows is still hiding here. To think that there’s someone who dared to do this right before my eyes in my home, truly audacious."

Everyone nodded, naturally understanding why the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was so angry. Attempting to kill his daughter and son-in-law right beneath his eyes. Wasn’t this smacking his face?

If the assassination had succeeded, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor and Empire would become jokes.

"Hence, I hope the people in the royal capital can cooperate with me. For experts at the immortal king realm, all of you are to gather in my royal palace immediately. I’ll check through you one by one, until I find the mastermind behind that assassination attempt." The Evergreen Immortal Emperor coldly spoke. "Everyone should understand why I’m doing this. If I discover that there are immortal kings who didn’t report to my royal palace, I will immediately treat them as being involved in this."

As the sound of his voice faded, the entire capital shook. With this command, the person in the shadows would find it hard to flee even if given wings.

Right now, the entire capital was locked down by the Evergreen Tree. No one would be able to flee. And if someone attempted to flee now, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor would instantly know and kill that person. Who would dare to flee now then?

"Being able to pay a visit to your Majesty is our honor." Many immortal kings instantly stepped out.

"Haha, being able to witness the glory of his Majesty personally and even being able to see the gigantic ancient Evergreen Tree, is truly a fortunate matter for us. We will naturally head to the palace." action

Within the capital, many immortal kings all spoke as they headed towards the palace.

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor was the lord of this immortal empire. If things were reasonable, everyone would naturally follow his orders.

In an instant, countless immortal kings appeared in the palace, causing a huge commotion. So many experts were here and all of them were at the immortal king level. As expected of the Evergreen Immortal Empire, truly a major power of the immortal realms.

At this moment, the nobles of the palace were shocked, even Qin Wentian himself was extremely shocked.

Because of the assassination attempt, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was so angered that he summoned the Evergreen Tree, sealing the entire capital, giving a command to gather all the immortal kings here at the palace. Clearly, nobody would expect such a strong reaction from the Evergreen Immortal Emperor.

The army was activated, prepared to maintain order. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor merged together with the Evergreen Tree, attaining perfect control of it. Wherever the tree reaches, he could see everything clearly. At this moment, he was able to see the entire situation within the capital.

More and more immortal kings gathered, they were all asked to move to a gigantic public square within the palace. Those immortal kings stared up at the gigantic tree as they bowed, "We pay our respects to your Majesty."

To the people of the Evergreen Immortal Empire, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was a supremely high-up existence, the saint in their hearts. Even if such incident didn’t occur, all of them would still wish to witness the glory of his Majesty personally. Now, their wishes were fulfilled.

Inside the capital, the sloppy old man was still in hiding, like an ordinary mortal, not daring to emit any aura at all, let alone head towards the royal palace. He was very clear that in the palace, not only was the Evergreen Immortal Emperor there, there was still a White Emperor. With the two of them there, no matter how good his hiding abilities might be, he would definitely be discovered.

Also, as an assassin, he naturally heard before of how powerful the supreme guardian treasure of the Evergreen Immortal Empire was. Right now, obeying that order seemed wrong, not obeying also seemed like a mistake. He was thinking that he had roamed unhindered for so many years, was he going to die here today?

About two hours later, there were already plenty of immortal kings inside the palace. However, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor didn’t investigate them yet. The emperor continued speaking, "If at this moment, there are still immortal kings not here at my palace, I will personally go out and invite you all here."

This voice thundered throughout the capital, as everyone heard it. Who would dare to not obey such a direct order? This was the royal capital of the Evergreen Immortal Empire, the Evergreen Immortal Emperor was the heavens itself.

Very swiftly, more and more immortal kings came by, until there were no more people flying through the skies in the capital. The Evergreen Immortal Emperor continued, "Everyone in the capital, stay at your original location."

As the sound of his voice faded, the capital trembled again. The countless leaves of the ancient tree drifted along with the wind, turning into beams of green light as they shot towards the crowd.

Everyone, regardless of their ages or cultivation bases, was bound by the Evergreen Tree. Nobody dared to resist. These vines and branches were like the eyes of his Majesty, able to survey everything. Who would dare to move about recklessly?

The green light then slowly seeped into the bodies of everyone, but none of them dared to resist it. The crowd could only watch on nervously, allowing the light to enter their bodies.

However at this moment, the body of someone started trembling. This person was a middle-aged immortal king, right now he was incomparably nervous and his body was trembling. Just when the light entered his body, he suddenly roared, "Your Majesty please pardon me, I didn’t wish to conceal my cultivation base. I will head to the palace immediately!"

He didn’t expect that the ancient Evergreen Tree would have this miraculous effect.

As the sound of his voice faded, swishing sounds rang out as boundless green vines materialized, wrapping him in and whisking him away in the direction of the royal palace.

In another location, the sloppy old man completely panicked. He had always believed that his hiding abilities were strong, but when the green light entered his body and sensed the strength within, he finally knew how fearsome this supreme guardian treasure was.

"BOOM!" He soared up into the sky and unleashed a terrifying might. His sloppy posture became straight as he fled into the distance.

Numerous beams of green light descended from the sky, sealing his path of retreat. After that, countless vines shot over, sealing this entire space. That sloppy old man struggled violently but had no way to break free at all.

Were immortal emperors so good to antagonize? Especially so for a character like the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. Attempting to kill his son-in-law, was it really a very fun thing to do?

Very swiftly, his body was dragged to the palace. Not only him alone, there were actually over ten immortal kings who attempted to conceal their cultivation bases. Right now, all of them were found out and were transported by the Evergreen Tree to the royal palace.

Very swiftly, these ten plus people all appeared in the palace. They were bound by the vines as energy from the Evergreen Tree flowed into them, weakening their strength. They were like prisoners, being hung up in the air, as the countless immortal kings here all stared at them. They all silently mused at how the Evergreen Immortal Emperor really did accomplish what he said. For those who didn’t come over, he did personally invite all of them here.

Qin Wentian also arrived here. When he raised his head and stared at the ten plus figures in the air, his eyes gleamed with sharpness. There were actually so many people hiding in the shadows?
