Painting of the Nine Immortals Chapter 876 - The Great Mausoleum

After killing Zhao Qing, Ling Xian attacked again and killed another Heaven’s Favorite from the Zhao Clan.

This silenced the Garden of the Inviting Moon.

All eyes concentrated on him with horror.

That was the Zhao Clan!

In the entire East Domain, how many forces dared to provoke them? Let alone a single cultivator…

Yet Ling Xian was fearless. He had killed two of the Zhao Clan’s Heaven’s Favorites, how overbearing was this?

Why wouldn’t everyone be surprised?

Not even in their dreams did they think that Ling Xian would kill so crisply. That was absolutely a mess!

After moments of shock, everyone realized that a terrifying storm was coming.

The Zhao Clan was one of the leading giants in the East Domain. Even if they lose two ordinary descendants, they wouldn’t let it go easily, let alone losing two Heaven’s Favorites with bright futures?

That was the same as slapping the Zhao Clan in the face!

Therefore, the way everyone looked at Ling Xian was somewhat respectful but also somewhat pitiful.

Even Fairy Wu was shaking her head, feeling a headache kicking in.

However, Ling Xian’s expression remained calm and unchanging.

He knows that he killed two people and therefore, he had formed rivalry with the Zhao Clan. But if he didn’t kill them, would the Zhao Clan let this go?

They wouldn’t have. That was clear from the fact that Zhao Qing tried to cause him trouble.

Therefore, why would Ling Xian suck it up? Plus, he was no longer that little cultivator from back then. Today, he had the power to protect himself.

“If enemies come, I will simply fight them with water and mud.”

Ling Xian smiled. He leaped forward in giant steps and returned to his chair inside the hall.

This time, he could sense the difference in the way Fairy Wu and the others were looking at him. Before, other than Fairy Wu, everyone else looked down on him even though they wouldn’t admit it.

But today, everyone was looking at him with great importance. They were even somewhat afraid.

Even Fairy Wu was the same.

At first, they weren’t certain about Ling Xian’s capabilities and they couldn’t help but to see him lightly. But after he defeated Zhao Qing with a jade cup, they saw him with great importance.

Even if they take 10,000 steps back and say that defeating Zhao Qing was nothing. Then what about that fight against w.a.n.g Jun?

Remember that he was one of the strongest out of the younger generation in the East Domain. To have been able to fend him off has already proven Ling Xian’s powerfulness.

Therefore, when he walked over, everyone’s faces grew serious.

“Friend, what you did today…”

Fairy Wu bitterly chuckled. After thinking about it for a while, she concluded, “You sure were blunt.”

Hearing this, everyone chimed in and exclaimed over Ling Xian’s abilities.

Honestly speaking, if they were the ones fighting, they might not have been able to do what he did. After all, the Zhao Clan was one of the giants of the East Domain. Anyone would have to evaluate their options.

Yet Ling Xian killed two people from that clan. His bluntness and overbearingness naturally made them exclaim.

“The word you actually want to use is that I am cruel.”

Ling Xian shook his head and chuckled. He knew what everyone was thinking. But he didn’t kill those two out of impulse. He had evaluated the situation before he committed the crime.

Plus, he was not someone who was easily scared.

“Not exactly cruel. I can tell, you have guts.” Fairy Wu glanced at Ling Xian, finding him to be more profound than she thought.

“Think what you want.”

Ling Xian softly smiled. He wanted to walk the Path of being Undefeatable. In other words, it was a path without obstruction.

In this world, the only way to achieve that was to be so strong he has no enemies. Only then can he truly wander around without restrictions.

“I will not say anymore. You must be careful. The Zhao Clan will not simply let this go.” Fairy Wu reminded him.

“I know.” Ling Xian smiled softly and poured himself a cup of alcohol. He no longer wanted to talk about this topic.

At this, n.o.body commented anymore. After what had happened, they lost the mood to disuss this.

They were merely silent and they drank and ate by themselves.

At this, Fairy Wu spoke softly, “Oh well, since you guys are not in the mood for conversations. Then I will talk about the real intention of this gathering.”

Real intention?

Ling Xian frowned slightly, a little confused.

The others, however, became energized. They already knew that with Fairy Wu’s personality, she wouldn’t be so bored as to simply host a gathering and ask everyone to meet in the hall. She must’ve had something she wanted to discuss.

“I believe, everyone’s heard of The Great Mausoleum.”

Fairy Wu’s lips slightly quivered and uttered out a statement that raised everyone’s spirit.

The Great Mausoleum?

Ling Xian frowned deeper. He suddenly remembered the several names he saw from a book after he destroyed the Qing Ming House.

The Palace of Fortune, the Immortal Palace, the Great Ma.n.u.soleum, and the Boundary of Immortality.

He’s been to the first two of these four mysterious places and he knew they were both holy places hidden with opportunities. Applying that logic, the latter two should be the same.

In other words, The Great Mausoleum is likely a treasure filled place with many fortunes and opportunities.

What the others said next confirmed Ling Xian’s guess.

“The Great Mausoleum is a valuable place with countless fortunes. How is it possible that we’ve never heard of it?”

“Based on what Fairy Wu is implying, perhaps it is about to be activated? That is a great fortune!”

“Legend has it that this holy place activates at unpredictable times and at unpredictable locations. On average however, it activates once every two centuries.”

“That’s right. As you all know, the Library of Fortune and the Pavilion of Opportunities are tied closely together. So I heard the new about the activation before others.”

Fairy Wu’s face was serious, “So I have invited you all here because I want to form an alliance. When the time comes, I want us to be able to help each other.”

Pausing, Fairy Wu continued, “We are all for ourselves and these opportunities are rare. If we can form an alliance then the hope of us succeeding would be a lot higher.”

“Fairy Wu you are completely right.”

Feng Hang Tian’s eyes were hot. “To us cultivators, The Great Mausoleum is an opportunity that we cannot miss no matter what. If we can work together than the chances of us getting the fortunes would increase by a lot.”

“That’s right. Heaven’s Favorites of the foreign kinds are not easy to fight against. We are fighting behind the same line,” the Young Master continued.

“Sister Wu, you are right and we have no objections.”

Qing Yao and Qing Xue exchanged glances and then said in unison that they agree with Fairy Wu’s suggestion.

At this, Fairy Wu smiled brightly and there was some joy on her face. Then, she s.h.i.+fted her gaze to Ling Xian, who hasn’t spoken.

“Friend, I wonder how you feel about all this?”

Hearing this, everyone else s.h.i.+fted their gazes towards Ling Xian, their eyes flickered with antic.i.p.ation.

His capability and battling abilities were things everyone witnessed. Plus just now, w.a.n.g Jun had left, so of course they wanted him to join them.

Sensing everyone’s hopeful gaze, Ling Xian was silent for a while. “I have three questions that I am hoping Fairy Wu can answer for me.”
