Kapitel 28: Chapter 28: The overall situation
In the evening light of the jade green secret realm, in front of a green building, a man with some stubble on his face walked over while holding a jade slip on his hand, he showed a rather amused look after reading its contains, he gave a small laugh as he muttered:
"This is quite unexpected, but a festival should be like this to be merrier. I heard that the poll for this little girl was one to three hundreds, even a single spirit stone would become…"
Senior Qin shuddered thinking about the betting house's situation right now, he knew that those bastard are accustomed to earn at the grand event like the Sword Flight racing tournament but this time they may have to cough up some more if there are some lavish gambler that bet for fun, and even what they won with the unexpected result may not be enough to offset it since they still need to pay tribu- tax to the Cultivation society and the Academy.
Senior Qin shook his head as he entered in the green building, he still needed to prepare for his event tomorrow the Green Art tournament may not be the most popular competition but it had it's own fame and charm…
...….
At the same time in a tavern in the entertainment area of the jade green secret realm, old He was busying like a mad horse taking command and serving his customers, he had thought he prepared well enough for the first day of the Grand Festival but with the large flow of customers that came from the Sword Flight tournament and the young patrons that come in celebrating like it was new year, thing became so hectic that the part time workers he just hired became full-fledged one in an instant.
It was quite painful for his old back but you could only see him smiling from ear to ear showing his true feeling, what a good day for business…
...…..
Li Yun and his group were seated on their usual place, the other customers were looking at them from time to time, but they acted oblivious to it.
They were there to celebrate the Glory of their friends!
Yu Guangtu's shining bald head reflecting the light from above didn't dampen the mood as he said merrily raising his glass:
"To Wu Lin for bringing us glory fame and wealth! Cheers!"
""To Wu Lin!"" The other echoed in unison. Li Yun and Wen Bao being louder than the other.
Wu Lin wasn't happy hearing that but she could only hold her anger for now, they were obviously just joking? So she would let them be for now, just wait…
As the excitement continued and everyone settled down drinking and laughing, Long Xian put his glass down and said with seriousness:
"Everyone! It was indeed a great performance from fellow student Wu Lin and we can all be proud of her for that."
Everyone looked at him with rapt attention and nodded their head hearing his words.
Seeing that they were all listening to him, Long Xian finally entered in the main subject that he wanted to talk about:
"I also want to talk about the next batch of participants for the next event…"
As he talked about it, everyone that were concerned became more and more serious, such grave faces! What were these youngsters planing…
Old He who was bringing a new wave of drink heard some tidbit of it and couldn't help but shudder, he couldn't help but think that they were really daring…
The shop owner then hurried to the table six since the guests there were waiting for their drinks.
...….
At the same time in a room of the Hundreds blossom restaurant, under the shade of jade light, a handsome young man and a beautiful young lady were seated facing each other looking like match made by the heaven …
Such a romantic situation that would make some bachelors stamp their feet in jealousy and hatred as well as the envious looks of young maidens that dreamt of love was indeed quite a sight, sadly the atmosphere wasn't quite right…
Li Kun really felt that the time he spent in this room was longer than all the time he spent since he came to the City of Prodigies, he was there since several days attending boring parties one after the other it was hard to imagine a more time lengthening circumstances but nothing is impossible in life…
Meng Lin wasn't there to have a nice talk either so she didn't bother with the nonsense and said directly:
"How are we going to deal with this situation?"
Her words were sharps and demanded a reasonable answer if not…
Li Kun gulped his saliva but he toughened up and said calmly with a manly voice:
"I don't see what may be the matter fairy Meng, aren't you just going to spend some times in the Thunder City, you can take this as a simple vacation and enjoy yourself."
Hearing his calm words Meng Lin didn't explode or anything she just looked at him with piercing eyes akin to her father's but the guy in front of her didn't back down and stared back with steadiness, who was afraid of who?!
The staring lasted for a while and in the end the one to back down was unexpectedly Meng Lin, she retracted her piercing gaze and returned to her fairy like personality as she said refreshingly:
"Then I have to thank young master Li for my stay in the Thunder City, I don't know many people from there so it is a pleasant surprise that you will let me stay at your company, I hope we get along from now."
She bowed before walking out of the room elegantly with light steps.
Li Kun was left alone there staring into the space thinking that something was not right.
"Wait! Who said you will be staying at my company?!"
His words reverberated in the surrounding but no one was there to listen to him, what a slow reaction…
...….
While many things were happening in the Jade green secret realm, the air surrounding the Glassy Sand Desert region in the western regions that was full of glass sand and fiery volcano became somewhat heavier than usual, the spiritual Qi was giving a strange feeling and many sensitive species inhabiting the region were becoming restless and uneasy.
*Whoosh*
Suddenly, Black winds began to howl bringing a sense of doom and stillness, the hot air cooled down. The weak being began to run for their lives while the strong ones held solemn looks and readied themselves for the worst.
Several figures appeared in the sky wearing black clothes hidding their figures, but from the aura emanating from them there was no mistakes, they were the feared Evil cultivators from the Dark miasma region in the North!
"What bring you there Great Devil God. This is not a place for you to come."
An old sighing voice echoed in the sky as a wave of spiritual Qi washed away the Dark miasma bringing back the peacefulness, the black clothed figures halted and waited for a moment but seeing no one coming out, one of them said with gruff voice full of arrogance and mockery:
"Humph!For the Sand River Sage to act like this, did you become senile or did you lose your courage fearing death in old age!?"
The gruff man's voice just landed, when a youthful voice echoed:
"Such arrogance! What gave you the gall to talk like that Blackhound?! You are just Wang Dafei's dog it's not your-"
The words were cut off as a suffocating pressure emerged from the black figures, it was not their problems if this little shot talked trash with Blackhound but calling the cult leader by his name on his face before them the Twelves Fiends was not knowing the immensity of Heaven and earth!
The one that spoke before was obviously unable to bear the pressure and began to cough up some spiritual blood but thankfully for him a gentle wave of spiritual Qi protected him in time before his foundations were damaged.
Several figures of different forms appeared one after the other some were golden beast with head like lion and body of a fierce beast, other were like goats but with human faces, some were fiery birds that didn't have any feathers but covered in burning fire instead, well it was a group of mysterious beings that held great names in the Western regions!
Among them beside a golden Peng still sweeping the trace of spiritual blood on his face while glaring at the black clothed figures with hatred and some fear, was a disheveled old man looking like a figure made of clay; he was holding an old cane that looked like a stick that he picked up from the roadside but it was actually a branch of the World tree! A natural treasure that he got in his youth when he stumbled in a mysterious place and got as a blessing from a gentleman perched on a lustrous tree that asked him:
"It's a nice weather right?"
He couldn't see the man's face but he remembered answering subconsciously:
"A bit too hot to walk on the road side."
As Wei Zhou reminisced about that fateful encounter and think that he was really a stupid and bold youth back then, he looked ahead of him with a tranquil gaze and said:
"Will it be for War or for Massacre?"
When the other heard Sand River Sage's words they couldn't help but have a chill on their back, as expected of the oldest among the Ten great of the Cultivation society he didn't talk civility but stated such words bluntly…
The atmosphere became extremely tense all of a sudden, the welcoming Westerners that looked a bit peeved when reacting to the Evil cultivator's arrival suddenly found back their spine and began to show red eyes awakening their bloodthirsty nature.
They looked like they would kill every last one of the evil cultivators until the sky dyed red and the earth became desolate!
The evil cultivators didn't show fear seeing this they kept their silence giving a very ominous feeling.
In this tense situation where a single spark may lit the fuse, the on that stood out was none other than the revered leader of the Dark Cult, Great Devil God Wang Dafei!
He flew up to the westerners casually and said in an unfeeling tone unbefitting of his round face:
"Make a way!"
Let alone a spark, it was pouring oil on the fire…
The confrontation was inevitable…
...….
While the situation in the western region took an unexpected turn that no one could have predicted, father Li was spending some times alone with his wife in the peach garden, Xiao Ling'er profited of the trip outside and went following Li Ya and Sun Jia in the Jade green secret realm bringing Hong Xi and Jiang Xing with her.
The husband and wife finally vote some space and talked about something if there was anything to talk about or just keep the calm silence when there was none, what a peaceful sight…
As he looked at his wife, Li Cheng couldn't help but feeling a bit guilty, he became aware that they actually didn't have the opportunity to be alone together like this since a long time ago, he was always busy with his company in the past world and left the dealing of everything at home to Li Ying alone, and it took him to get transmigrated to another world to become aware of this making even him a bit speechless about himself…
'I won't make the same mistake again.'
The Tyrant Saber God swore internally to himself. What great conviction!
"Are you thinking about useless thing again? You have been watching too much drama on the T.v. recently, even though the storyline and polite do look more detailed and realistic befitting of a fantastic world, fake aware still fake in the end, don't believe in all of this, women especially a mother aren't that dramatics."
Mother Li said pointedly to her husband that was having some strange thought before standing up to make the dinner while thinking inside.
'Better make him do more works later on, men are all the same no matter the age, they keep getting fantasy when they are not busy with their job…'
Looking at her back disappearing in the kitchen Li Cheng held a pensive look, so she was looking out for him all this time, but she said that they looked realistic so those stories should still held son truth within right? So confusing...
