Chapter 75 (1/2)

The accomplishment at the Soul Mourning Mountain!

This news spreaded across the whole Sky Bearing Empire as though it had wings! The whole empire was also filled with celebration!

The Soul Mourning Mountain and Valley of Sobbing Spirits had always been a great barrier against the Sky Bearing Empire! But now, this barrier is in the hands of the Sky Bearing Empire. From now on, the Sky Bearing Empire will have no more worries from the west! They can both attack and defend, having a large advantage. At the same time, they also avoid the misfortune of being attacked from all sides and would have a strong buffer against the empires surrounding their territory!

After the news which the Sky Bearing Empire won over the Soul Mourning Mountain of the Western Han Empire spread out, the troops which were stationed at the borders and eyeing covetously had diminished greatly overnight.

The Sky Bearing Empire can heave a sigh of relief.

The greatest contributor to this feat would naturally be the unbeatable General Ling Xiao! The results from this battle had pushed his fame in the Sky Bearing Empire to an unprecedented height! In fact, there were many people who had erected a longevity tablet for Ling Xiao.

There were many people who sighed in their hearts, ”General Ling is a hero of this generation with his stunning battle feats. Everything about him is good except for his good for nothing son! A tiger father with a dog son. It is really such a pity. No matter how good something is, there will always be flaws!”

For the occasional few who would say that, they would be lashed out at by everyone else, ”General Ling has completed such amazing feats and risked his life for the empire and people. After doing so many good deeds, he would naturally not have the time to discipline his son well. Furthermore, with Ling Xiao’s reputation, so what is his son was a little bit of a playboy? As long as they were careful enough to hide their own daughters, then all would be fine. After all, he can’t possibly go into their houses to s.n.a.t.c.h them openly right?”

As such, Ling Tian also basked in the spotlight together with his father. As his father’s reputation spread, the name of young n.o.ble Ling Tian also became widely known. However, in all of these battle contributions of General Ling, who would know just how much of these were contributed by this super silkpants in their eyes? Who would know that if General Ling did not have this ‘unfilial’ son, much of his contributions would likely be discounted with his life possibly being lost. No one would know about all of these. Even General Ling himself would never believe that he had actually raised such a wonderful son!

With regards to all of these, Ling Tian would naturally not be bothered with it! At this moment, this super silkpants was comfortably lying down under the rack of grapes, enjoying the grapes being fed to him by a beautiful lady. If anyone were to see this scene, they would definitely lament, ”What a beautiful lady! It is just such a pity that she was ruined in the mouth of a tiger…”

A soft sound then sounded from outside the courtyard, ”Reporting to young n.o.ble, young n.o.ble w.a.n.g is here to visit.”

Ling Tian responded with a ‘oh’ and said, ”Invite him in.”

”Wahahaha, brother Ling Tian, this brother missed you to death.” Following a duck like laughter, a shabbily dressed guy, with his ribs revealed and hat crooked, walked in. As he smiled, his row of yellow teeth missing two front tooth could be seen. The way he looked, he didn't seem like he even had two taels of meat on him.

As the laughter sounded, Ling Chen had already hid in the room like a gust of wind. As she saw this young master from the w.a.n.g family, who was ranked together with Ling Tian as the ‘three silkpants’ in the capital, Ling Chen felt uncomfortable all over and had the urge to spit on him!

While the w.a.n.g family was not like the Ling family or Yang family, they were definitely ranked within the top five in the capital with their decades of foundation.

Ling Tian then laughed and stood up unsteadily, ”Err...brother w.a.n.g, your presence bring light to my humble dwelling.”

Young n.o.ble w.a.n.g was called w.a.n.g Bo, which means that he is extremely knowledgeable. While w.a.n.g Bo was not knowledgeable, he still has many talents! Especially with regards to drinking and playing — he was a natural prodigy who did not need to be taught. He would also frequent the red-light district to display his many talents.

As he touched a hair growing on his mole, w.a.n.g Bo laughed, ”Young n.o.ble Ling, if your place is considered a ‘humble dwelling’ then my house must be considered ruins.”
