Chapter 126: Divine Ice Soul Sword
The giant magical artifact boat had a pretty decent speed of about 4000 units. Although it could not be compared to a YuanYing cultivator, it was comparable to an ordinary JinDan cultivator.
With such speed, they finally arrived at a beautiful mountain peak at noon after 4 hours of flying.
This was a mountain range with peaks of varying heights. A dense fog surrounded the mountain, but the mountain peak was completely clear, overlooking the beautiful scenery.
When the people from the Mystical Sky Yard arrived, there were already 20 different giant magical artifacts from the other sects. Most of them were in the shape of a boat, but some were in the shape of a small hill or pavilion.
There were already plenty of people standing on the mountain top, cl.u.s.tered into groups representing the sects they belonged to. Little Fatty and gang also flew down the boat under the lead of Daoist HuoLong and found a quiet place to wait.
This was also the first time Little Fatty saw so many different cultivators from the different sects and could not help but start sizing them up carefully. Very quickly, he realized that all the people here were from the various large sects of the Vast Mountains.
Although Little Fatty had never seen them before, he was able to tell from their dressing and appearances. For example, those who were dressed in red were probably the devil’s path cultivators from the Blood Shadow Sect. Those who were as skinny as bamboo poles were probably from the Bitter Bamboo Sect. Those whose dressings were embellished with plants and had bugs occasionally flying out of them were probably the bug cultivators from the Thousand Bug Range. Those with a body full of baleful energy were definitely from the Thousand Devil Sect.
All of those devil cultivators had strange appearances and could be discerned from a single glance. As for those righteous cultivators, it was much more difficult to tell them apart. They all had the typical righteous appearances with magical artifacts on their backs. The only one easy to tell apart would be those from the Jade Pearl Pavilion because they were a bunch of beautiful ladies.
Although it seemed like the positions they were standing at were all casually chosen, Little Fatty saw some meaning in the positions. Those from the evil and righteous would be split apart to two opposite ends, with a demarcation in between them avoiding any conflicts.
But, 80% of the people present were either from the righteous or the evil sects. Despite the demarcation, they all glared at each other coldly. For all you know, a conflict could erupt anytime.
Just as Little Fatty was surveying his surroundings, a group of ladies dressed in white appeared in front of them under the lead of a beautiful middle aged lady.
The middle aged lady had an elegant demeanor as if the elegance was congenital. Her spiritual Qi was well controlled and it was obvious that she was a YuanYing cultivator. With a slight smile, she came to Daoist HuoLong and said politely, “Paying respects to senior brother HuoLong! After so many years of not seeing you, you are still as elegant as ever!
“You flatter me!” Daoist HuoLong also did not dare be rude as he hurriedly responded, “Junior sister Hao is the one who is still as elegant as ever, I am already old!”
“Haha, senior brother is too kind!” The beautiful lady responded with a smile, “The Mystical Sky Yard just killed Tu QianCheng and must be in the limelight currently. I suppose that senior brother must have played a big role in the event, so how can you still be old?”As Daoist HuoLong heard that, his face changed as he knew that she didn’t approach with friendly intentions. He immediately raised his guard and carefully replied, “Celestial Hao thinks too highly of me. The one who killed Tu QianCheng was just a junior, I had no part in it.”
“Oh, really?” The beautiful lady’s eyes shone as she asked in curiosity, “I wonder which young valiant hero was the one who killed Tu QianCheng. I wonder if I would be lucky enough to meet him?”
“Haha, of course!” Daoist HuoLong smiled slightly as he said to Little Fatty, “SongZhong, come pay your respects to senior Hao from the Jade Pearl Pavilion!”
As Little Fatty heard that, he could only come out and bow in respect. Just when he was about to pay his greetings, a wave of laughter accompanied by a mischievous voice sounded, “SongZhong, goodness! What a unique name!”
“Hahahahah~” As she said that, all the ladies from the Jade Pearl Pavilion began to laugh.
Even the celestial like beautiful lady could not help but burst out in laughter. The most infuriating fact was that the brats of the Mystical Sky Yard also joined in the fun and laughed together with everyone else. In the end, this made Little Fatty extremely awkward as anger began to surge in his heart. The words meant for him to pay his greetings were also unable to be spoken.
Daoist HuoLong was already prejudiced against Little Fatty and would not care about Little Fatty being humiliated. But, HongYing could not bear with the fact that Little Fatty was being bullied. She immediately stepped out and raged, “What are you guys laughing at! What’s so funny about that!”
Even the originally quiet ShuiJing also couldn’t help but say with a frown, “The Jade Pearl Pavilion indeed has such an imposing grandeur, befitting a prestigious sect!”
Senior Hao was startled as she heard the words from the two of them. With regards to HongYing, she was only shocked about how she protected Little Fatty. But, she saw with a single glance how she was a person who had completely no shrewdness in her heart. This made her much more relieved. Such a cultivator may become a cultivator with no limits to her strength. But with her simple mindset, she would never become the head of a sect and lead her sect to prosperity. But, ShuiJing was different. With a simple sentence, she sarcastically praised them and struck the key point of how they were going a bit too far. With a single sentence, she made the people from the Jade Pearl Pavilion feel extremely embarra.s.sed about their conduct.
The beautiful lady, Hao, was deep in thought. ‘It seems that the Mystical Sky Yard is really full of talents! It is one thing for HongYing to be so talented. For ShuiJing to be so talented and shrewd at the same time, she would probably be a great figure in the future. We must definitely pay attention to her!’
This thought flashed through Hao’s mind as her face revealed nothing. She replied with a smile, “Ai yah yah, all of these rash brats from our sect embarra.s.sed themselves!”
With just a simple response, she successfully resolved the awkward situation, it can be seen that she was also a shrewd person.
Then, she said to Little Fatty with a face full of smiles, “You are able to kill Tu QianCheng at such a young age, you definitely have a bright future ahead of you!”
“You flatter me, it was only a fluke!” Little Fatty replied.
“Of course it’s only a fluke. You are just someone who only knows how to take advantage of the situation!” A female cultivator from the Jade Pearl Pavilion mocked as if the elders’ presence did not bother her one bit.
With regards to her rude actions, Hao chose to ignore it as she watched by the side with a smile. It was obvious that she had previously instructed her disciples to do that.
Facing such a provocation, Little Fatty could not even be bothered to respond. He only rolled his eyes and ignored it completely. Seeing the situation, the other party thought that Little Fatty was looking down on her. Thus, she was enraged. She jumped out and said, “Darn fatty, don’t be so full of yourself. If you have the abilities, come out and fight me. Let me see if you’re a person who only knows how to rely on luck!”
