“Who’s the troublemaker?” With a solemn expression, compared to ten years ago at the Illusion Heavenly Lake, Ling Tianzhi had inherited a more calm and reserved mannerism.
However, while he looked around, he still felt apprehensive with power. He was no doubt the most exceptional person among the younger generation of the Heavenly Mountain Sect. Currently, Ling Tianzhi appear to have taken over the sect.
A few groups of Heavenly Mountain Sect disciples surrounded Ling Tianzhi. All of them possessed extraordinary strength. These people were clearly, representative figures among the younger generation of the Heavenly Mountain Sect.
The martial artist who engaged in conflict with Qin Wushuang previously walked up and said, “Senior Brother, this guy is mysterious. He’s unwilling to show his identity, yet he has great power. He has three subordinates, they are pretentious, arrogant and overbearing. I am suspicious that certainly they are hiding something, or else why would they not let us check their identity?”
Ling Tianzhi waved his hand. “It is unlikely they are hiding just because they did not allow you to check their identity. For those martial artists with social status and power, who would be willing to get questioned? Tell me what happened, the more detail the better.”
The martial artist did not dare to beat around the bush as he began narrating the conflict that happened with systematic detail.
Ling Tianzhi raised his sword-like eyebrows. “He said that unless my father comes, he wouldn’t negotiate… He had such a big tone.”
“Senior Brother, this is the truth. Those junior brothers that followed me heard it and saw him with their own eyes.”
Ling Tianzhi nodded, for he expected that this person would not dare to lie to him. Inwardly, he felt rather strange. “Just who is he that he dared to speak with such authority?”
If it were a dozen years ago, perhaps Ling Tianzhi would knock down every door in the area, but after all, this was territory belonging to the Heavenly Mountain Sect.
With the advantage of being on home turf, plus with his youthful vigor, what would he be afraid of?
However, after a dozen years of being sharpened on a grindstone, along with the intentions cultivated from the sect, Ling Tianzhi was in fact much more earnest. He said with a low voice, “I understand it now, no need for you guys to get involved. Let me handle it. Before we figure out the inside story, go back to your roles and ensure nothing happens to our pageant.”
“Yes, Senior Brother!”
After he dispatched these junior brothers, with a moment of pondering, Ling Tianzhi decided to take the trip himself.
The informers of the Heavenly Mountain Sect were not bluffers. Soon, Ling Tianzhi arrived to the nearby area of the inn Qin Wushuang was staying in.
Inwardly, he was also curious. Most likely, people who had come to this Dark Mysterious City would collaborate to showcase their identity. This one was rather interesting. He dared to challenge disciples of the Heavenly Mountain Sect on their own home turf.
When he arrived nearby the inn, just when Ling Tianzhi was about to walk forward, suddenly he felt a surge of movement from beneath his feet. As he looked down, a head suddenly appeared on the ground. With a strange face, it twitched and smile at Ling Tianzhi.
This move was extremely sudden, causing Ling Tianzhi to almost jump up with surprise.
Unconsciously, his body moved forward and plundered like the wind. However, before he could move a wall suddenly appeared in front of him.
Ling Tianzhi opened his eyes wide, as his pupils almost burst from his head. Before him, there was another face that carried a faint smile.
Now, Ling Tianzhi realized that he was about to encounter someone formidable.
From three directions, a powerful presence surged to surround Ling Tianzhi in the middle. Instantly, Ling Tianzhi felt his breathing become urgent and his divine soul began throbbing.
“Ha ha, bring him up,” Qin Wushuang’s light voice came down.
Bao Bao and the other two spiritual beasts brought Ling Tianzhi upstairs. Despite feeling anxious inwardly, he did not show it on his face.
“Ling Tianzhi.” Qin Wushuang’s gaze was fixed on Ling Tianzhi’s body. With an indifferent tone he said, “I’ve traveled extensively and have been to all five Forbidden Spiritual Zones. However, it’s my first time meeting people so impolite to their guests. Could it be your Heavenly Mountain Sect plans to close their door to be king?”
With the Heart Illusion Mask, Qin Wushuang intentionally changed his appearance, so how could Ling Tianzhi recognize him after a dozen years?
He said with a bitter smile, “Mister, I think this is a misunderstanding. My Heavenly Mountain Sect was questioning your identity because we are entrusted by the Dark Mysterious Clan. We do not harbor vile intentions. Since you came to the Dark Mysterious Clan, you must have come for the pageant. Since you are here, you will be registering your identity sooner or later, why reject us?”
Qin Wushuang was rather stunned by his words. “What pageant?”
“You don’t know?” Ling Tianzhi was greatly astonished. “Mister, could it be you are not here for that Dark Mysterious Assembly?”
“What Dark Mysterious Assembly? I only know about the Ten Thousand Year Pilgrimage Pageant.” Qin Wushuang laughed.
“The Dark Mysterious Assembly naturally cannot be compared to the Ten Thousand Year Pilgrimage Pageant. However, it’s also a pageant which occurs every hundred years. Mister, you really didn’t know?”
Qin Wushuang shrugged his shoulders. “No.”
“Then that’s strange.” Ling Tianzhi gave a long sigh. “Since you possess great power, you must have come from an unusual background. Why are you here?”
“It seems I am questioning you, right? What is the deal with this Dark Mysterious Assembly?”
“Eh, the Dark Mysterious Assembly is a business transaction pageant the Dark Mysterious Clan entrusted to my Heavenly Mountain Sect to organize. In the Dark Mysterious Assembly, any level of trade can happen. Also, there is absolute safety and credit assurance. Additionally, there will be many activities auctioning of bounty. You also know that the totem clan rarely publicizes this kind of event. Once it’s let out, with the great benefits, everyone will be fighting for it.”
Qin Wushuang stayed silent. Activating his spiritual perception, he fixed his gaze on Ling Tianzhi for a moment. From his eyes, he did not see any tricks or crafty intentions.
He nodded. “Good, you didn’t lie to me. Since this is legitimate, I will take a look. Your Heavenly Mountain Sect sent disciples to offend me and now you want to pry into me identity, you should be punished severely. Only, within your territory, it will not look good on Ling Sheng to bully you. Anyways, this is the end of this matter. If your Heavenly Mountain Sect still intends to dawdle, don’t blame me for turning hostile.”
His old and decrepit tone as well as the truculent warning made by someone as unyielding as Qin Wushunag, Ling Tianzhi felt a burst of apprehensiveness. He knew that this person before him was not joking, and indeed, he was qualified to speak such words.
Although he felt the person was not much older than him, he even felt that he was possibly younger, he had no choice but to be convinced due to his power and aura.
After Ling Tianzhi left Qin Wushuang, while struck with fear, he did not dare to act on his own initiative. Instantly, he returned to the headquarters of the Heavenly Mountain Sect to see his father Ling Sheng, to seek advice.
Ling Sheng also felt incredibly fearful. He valued his precious son greatly. If something were to happen to him, Ling Sheng would surely be grieved to the point he’d wish he were dead.
Upon hearing of Ling Tianzhi’s experience, Ling Sheng said with a low voice, “Tianzhi, since this person has such astonishing strength, certainly he’s a hardcore figure. Since he does not hold much hostility and did nothing to you, you should not provoke him for now. Now, our Heavenly Mountain Sect is responsible for hosting this pageant without any troubles. We must restrain ourselves on anything else.”
Ling Sheng was old and wise. At such a crucial moment, it would be best to not form any more enemies. If someone troublesome were to come, they may sabotage their event.
“Father, this person had impressive power. Since he’s not here for the Dark Mysterious Assembly, I am curious, what is he here for?”
“That’s not your concern. If he’s not hostile, don’t provoke him. Didn’t you say he wanted to see the activities at the Dark Mysterious Assembly? Excellent, go and send a super VIP jade plate and invite him to it. As for his identity, if he did not say anything, don’t ask.”
“However, it seems unreasonable to not know his identity when participating in the Dark Mysterious Assembly?”
“Tianzhi, you are still not knowing how to be flexible. Announcing the identity is only a formality. Some true elite warriors like to hide their tracks. We also need to treat special cases differently. When you send this super VIP jade plate, we show our manners. It is up to him whether he goes or not. Also, for someone important as him, once he joins the trade pageant, certainly it will be a great benefit. By that time, we will also extract a considerable amount of commission. Surely the reward from the Dark Mysterious Clan will increase even more.”
Ling Tianzhi nodded willingly. “Alright, I will send it to him now.”
Ling Tianzhi was no longer that arrogant young man, as he gained a better ability to judge the hour and to seize the clock. He knew that when facing such elite warriors, it was better to cater to them than fight them.
When good relationships are pulled, even if they could not become friends, at least they would not become enemies.
Qin Wushuang was somewhat surprised when Ling Tianzhi appeared again. Of course, he would take this super VIP jade plate.
It would save him a great deal of trouble when he participated in the Dark Mysterious Assembly with this. Qin Wushuang was just getting worried of not knowing more about the Dark Mysterious Clan. This Dark Mysterious Assembly just happened to provide him with an opportunity. It was indeed like a drowsy person being provided a pillow.
In ten days, the Dark Mysterious Assembly opened its curtains. Qin Wushuang attended with his three divine beasts. Naturally, the three divine beasts appeared with transformed looks.
Despite this fact, as soon as these four appeared at the Dark Mysterious pageant with tremendous aura, they instantly caused astonished cries. Initially in the noisy hall, it seemed as if all the voices were extracted. Everyone became silent and stayed in shock by their way of entering the scene.
Until Qin Wushuang handed his super VIP jade plate and got led to the VIP area, the outside hall slowly regained its liveliness.
“Tsk tsk, it seems this Dark Mysterious Assembly is quite significant. In just less than an hour, a group of Supreme Dao elite warriors entered the VIP hall.”
“I truly hope Supreme Dao elite warriors can take more of the bounty. Ha ha, will there be Supreme Dao weapons as rewards this time?”
To these ordinary martial artists, Supreme Dao weapons were dreams and unreachable treasures. It would make them mad and not function normal.
When Qin Wushuang walked into the VIP hall, he saw there were already a dozen Supreme Dao elite warriors gathered. Most of these Supreme Dao elite warriors were alone. Some were in groups of two or three. However, Qin Wushuang was the only group with four people.
Besides, after Bao Bao and the others transformed, they withdrew their power. Since they were different than human Supreme Dao martial artists, these Supreme Dao people could not see through their power. Naturally, they viewed Bao Bao as an ordinary martial artist and thought they were Qin Wushuang’s subordinates.
Qin Wushuang did not suppress his aura. Because of this, the appearance of a Transformation Supreme Dao elite warrior caused most of these Supreme Dao elite warriors to feel a burst of invisible pressure.
Qin Wushuang ignored these reactions and sat on his chair facing forward. At this moment, a joyful voice shouted from outside, “Heavenly Mountain Sect Head Chief, Ling Sheng is present!”
As soon as these words were said, all the guests could not but help to stand up. Only, Qin Wushuang blew the tea he sent to his mouth, as if he didn’t hear a thing.
