Headmaster Tang, please never mind me. I just came out of isolation yesterday, which explains my lateness.
At these words, everyone at the scene frowned. For one, it was because Ling Xian arrived late, which made them feel like he was playing hard to get. For two, he had said some key words just now.
Came out of isolation!
Such simple words acted like giant rocks dropping into the pond and creating splashes.
Long before today, after the Qing Ming House was exterminated, many people were sent to investigate into what had happened. The general finding was that the deaths of all the completion leveled powerhouses were caused by one person.
After these people received this information, they all expressed their great shocks.
To know that that was the Qing Ming House – a House with more than 20 completion leveled powerhouses. Yet, including Mo Jing Lei, more than 20 of the completion leveled powerhouses were killed by one person. Why wouldn’t they feel shocked?
It was because of this these people were too afraid to stop the formation of the Ao Xian House. However, after some time had passed, they realized that the mysterious powerhouse could no longer be found. It was like he had evaporated into the thin air.
Of course, disappeared in their eyes.
Because of this, the different forces began to make their moves. After all, they have already gotten all the information they needed. Other than the mysterious powerhouse who destroyed the Qing Ming House solo, the Ao Xian House had nobody else that was capable.
Yet now, after hearing the words
came out of isolation
, these people remembered the mysterious powerhouse from years ago and frowned.
Tang Shan, who was preparing to form an alliance with all the neighboring forces, had a darkened expression on his face and he looked extremely unpleasant.
Based on your expressions, you are all really unhappy with me. Could it be because I was somewhat late today?
The bright laughter once again echoed through. Immediately, a silhouette wearing all white arrived from afar. His temperament and stance truly mimicked a real immortal – utterly extraordinary.
Instantly, the four Supreme Headmasters’ gazes fixated onto him. As for Chu Zhong Tian, who was standing beside him, was completely ignored.
What could they do? Ling Xian was far too attention snatching. It was as if he was the only living being in this universe and attracted everyone’s attention. No matter who it was that stood beside him, they would only be outshone by him and they would appear colorless.
This made Chu Zhong Tian speechless. He thought that he should’ve brought Huang Er, because then, at the very least, he would be the second person to be noticed.
After the Supreme Headmasters took a look at Ling Xian’s appearance, they gasped cold air instantly.
This was because he looked far too young – just like a 16 to 17 year old boy, which was ridiculously young. This appearance plus his terrifying capabilities made him appear ridiculous.
How could someone as young as this person possess capabilities as terrifying as the rumors?
The Supreme Headmasters were in doubt. However, they were the leaders of the land after all and had some mentality. Therefore, after the initial shock they felt, they forcefully smiled.
Haha, what are you talking about, it’s okay that you are slightly late.
Tang Shang laughed out loud and strategically concealed his anger and his astonishment,
So you are the Supreme Headmaster of the Ao Xian House. I wonder what your name is?
Ling Xian uttered out one word with a smile.
Ling.
Hearing this, Tang Shan’s face flashed with eeriness.
He had asked for Ling Xian’s name but Ling Xian only answered with his last name. This usually isn’t a big deal, but to someone as dominating as Tang Shang, he thought Ling Xian was being disrespectful.
However, he didn’t show it. His face remained full of smiles.
Alright, alright, Supreme Headmaster Ling, please come sit.
Tang Shang invited him to sit with a gesture.
Alright.
Ling Xian grinned and scanned Tang Shang using his Qi from head to toe. He decided that this person had the cultivation level of the peak of the completion level. He didn’t get there through the undefeatable realm of the foundational level though and he wasn’t at the undefeatable realm of the completion level.
This made him shake his head. He merely had this little capability yet he dared to try and impose power over the Ao Xian House?
However, he didn’t say anything. He merely walked over to the chair and indicated for Chu Zhong Tian to sit.
As he looked over Tang Shang, the other three were also looking into Ling Xian’s cultivation level. Sadly, they couldn’t detect anything because when they tried, a mysterious layer of fog surrounding Ling Xian stopped them.
This made them even more unsettled.
Headmaster Tang, since you started this gathering, why don’t you be the host.
After everyone sat, Ling Xian shifted his gaze to Tang Shang, who was sitting at the head of the table. There was some teasing in his eyes.
Okay, then I won’t prolong this meeting any further.
Tang Shang erased his smile and scanned around slowly,
I don’t have much to say. I merely want us to form an alliance so that when one of them encounter danger, the others can help and fight against the outsider.
Encounter danger?
Fight against the outsider?
The three Headmasters rolled their eyes. These words would only work on a three-year-old. They weren’t stupid. Why would they believe what Tang Shang was saying?
Ling Xian tauntingly said something that made everyone else’s face pale.
Headmaster Tang, what a great suggestion. I support you.
Dammit!
Is he really a three year old? Can’t he tell how ambitious Tang Shang is being?
The other three silently cursed as they glared at Ling Xian with fury
On the contrary, Tang Shang had a face full of smiles,
Haha, Headmaster Ling sure is clear-headed!
You have flattered me.
Ling Xian had a grin on his lips as he ignored the other three’s cold glares. He then said something else that silenced the place.
Though I wonder, who is more fitting to take the seat of the leader of the alliance?
At those words, the three Headmasters’ fury turned into curiosity – they weren’t sure what he was planning. Anyone with eyes could tell that Tang Shang was trying to be the leader of the alliance, which was why all of them were struggling with knowing what to do next.
Yet at a moment like this, Ling Xian asked who should be the leader. No matter how they looked at it, it seemed provoking.
It appears that the visitor didn’t come with good intentions.
Tang Shang frowned and the way he looked at Ling Xian turned cold. He could feel that his statement wasn’t a kind one.
Therefore, he said in a low voice,
The leader of the alliance would have to be chosen out of this group. Whoever is the most capable here gets to be the leader.
Oh really?
Ling Xian chuckled,
Yet how come on my way here, I saw all the lights lit at the Tian Xuan House. It’s very clamorous, as if you, Headmaster Tang, have decided that you will be the leader.
At this, everyone was once again stunned. They didn’t think he was so brave to throw this whole ordeal into the open.
Everyone knew about the Tian Xuan House’s intention. But nobody dared to say it out loud because it would mean they could no longer be friends. Yet Ling Xian had lifted the veil. What was the difference between doing this and announcing war?
There was no difference!
Thus, the three Headmasters were in awe and Tang Shan was furious.
His expression was as heavy as water, and all smiles had been wiped off of his face. he said in a cold voice,
What a son of a b!tch. Since everything is now in the open, then I won’t waste any more time.
Oh?
Ling Xian’s face continued to appear mocking and at ease.
Since we are not going to waste any more time, then speak of it. I have no energy to waste here.
Good, very good.
Tang Shan’s expression was dark as he glared at Ling Xian and scanned the other three Supreme Headmasters. He then uttered out a highly presumptuous statement.
I claim the seat of being the leader of the alliance. Whoever objects can die in my hand.
