Painting of the Nine Immortals

“Master Ling, it is an honor.”

The Supreme Headmasters all paid their respect and they spoke the same statement in unison.

The descendants from the Wan Jian House who were here for a show could not believe these important figures would show such respect to Ling Xian.

Remember that these people were all leaders of their respective Houses and Dynasties. Behind everyone’s power were the existence of the most important power forces.

In other words, they were the highest ranked people in Yunzhou. All of them had extremely powerful capabilities and the right to move rain with their hands.

Yet now, they were treating Ling Xian with nothing but respect. Why wouldn’t everyone be shocked? But after thinking about it, the descendants understood.

Ling Xian’s current status and current capabilities deserved these important characters’ respect!

Or in other words, nobody dared to act rudely before Ling Xian, they all must treat him with respect!

This made the descendants reveal a look of pride and their backs straightened.

All because Ling Xian was a member of the Wan Jian House!

Dao Wu Ji, in particular, felt his heart exploding with joy and he couldn’t control himself anymore. His handsome face was full of proudness and ecstasy. the only other emotion left was honor.

Proud because of Ling Xian, honorable because of Ling Xian!

“Everyone, you are being too kind.”

Ling Xian drifted down slowly. Like the descendant of a true immortal, he looked extraordinary and out of the world. Then, he softly fluttered his sleeve, indicating to the others that there was no need for such etiquette.

At this, everyone restored their normal stance. But their eyes continued to flicker with admiration and respect.

This made Ling Xian exclaim. Even though he hasn’t met the majority of these people, he knew that these people all had scary high statuses.

The emperor of the Qin Dynasty, the leader of the Qing Yun House, the Clan Leader of the Tang House, Ao Ran House’s Supreme Headmaster and so on. Every single person was an important figure from Yunzhou.

If this was before, he would have to pay much respect to these people and look up to them. But today, these people were peering up to him. Naturally he had much to exclaim about.

“This is the power of age and time. It can change anyone. Luckily, I have grown stronger and my position has gotten higher.”

Ling Xian silently sighed and he shifted his gaze towards the various leaders. Then, he nodded to Sun Ze Hao and grinned. “There’s no need to be so polite. Please sit.”

Despite those words, everyone remained standing and did not move. If Ling Xian wasn’t here, they would’ve randomly sat down, but since he has shown himself, they could not do whatever they wanted to do.

Therefore, everyone was waiting – waiting for him to sit down first.

At this, the faces of the descendants who were watching for fun flickered with jealousy and felt overwhelmed. They were imagining just when they will achieve enough to gain the same treatment from these people.

Ling Xian however, shook his head with a smile. He walked forward in giant steps and walked towards the seat at the head of the table.

With his relaxed mentality, he actually really didn’t want to sit at the head of the table – it would catch too much attention. But he knew that if he doesn’t sit at the head of the table, none of these people would be able to calmly sit down.

Plus, this celebration was thrown for him. If he doesn’t sit at the top, who had the right to sit there?

Therefore, Ling Xian ignored his humbleness and sat at the head of the table. Just like an admirable God, he sat in a seat that belonged to him and he gave off the vibe that he was in control.

Seeing this, the Headmasters all revealed smiles and quickly sat in their own seats. The celebration began.

There was really no theme to this celebration. It was merely Dao Wu Ji borrowing Ling Xian’s glory to show off his House and scare off the others.

Therefore, there was nothing really to discuss at the table. All everyone talked about was Ling Xian.

After all, he is the main character of this gathering. The main character of entire Yunzhou.

What could he do? He was far too powerful. Though he may not yet be number one in Yunzhou, he was at least top 10. At least out of these leaders here, nobody could win against him.

Therefore, after everyone sat down, all statements complimenting Ling Xian began to be thrown out. They continuously began and entered everyone’s ears.

There were all sorts of words and none of them were repetitive. However, there was only one topic.

It was all compliments. Heavy compliments. However much people can exaggerate and milk out the compliments, they did.

Such as how Young Master Ling was out of the world talented and how he was unparalleled… such as how his aura was extraordinary and he was basically an immortal… such as how he was undefeatable in his generation and a battling god…

All sorts of compliments arose. Yet nobody’s face turned red or white. They were spoken with much naturalness and not any shame.

This made Ling Xian smile and shake his head. He wondered if he continues to listen, if they will begin talking about how Young Master Ling will become undefeatable in this universe and rule the world.

“Everyone please stop. I am not as good as you are making me out to be.”

Ling Xian waved around his hand. Though listening to such kind words made him happy, what kind of mentality did he have? Naturally he wasn’t going to dwell on the good things and stunt his own growth.

“Haha, Master Ling, you are far too humble. To have destroyed three noble kinds… this kind of achievement is something only you can pull off.”

“That’s right. All these years us humans have had friction against the foreign kinds. I have been angry for a long time. Today, you have made a move and killed the three noble kinds. You have helped me utter out my anger.”

“That’s not all. The death of the three noble kinds means the foreign kinds in Yunzhou as a whole have slowed down by at least 50%. This will truly hurt the foreign kinds. I sure want to see if they still dare to act irrationally.”

“This is all thanks to you. Come, let me drink with you.”

Everyone chimed in and they all rose their cups to show Ling Xian respect.

At this, Ling Xian raised his cup as well and downed it – giving everyone face.

Then, these leaders began to flatter him. Their words somehow did not repeat themselves.

Ling Xian wondered if these people were all scholars before cultivating. Or else where did they learn all this vocabulary?

“Everyone, please stop flattering me. It’s better to be more natural.” Ling Xian shook his head with a soft grin, signaling the people to stop.

“Might as well. Then, Master Ling, check out the gift from the Qing Yun House. We brought it just for you.” Qing Yun House’s Supreme Headmaster smiled and nodded. he summoned and the gift to Ling Xian appeared.

Then, the place became rowdy.

Various Headmasters, without stopping, took out the valuable treasures from their own storage pouches and showed Ling Xian.

All the treasures were emitting heavenly light and were calling out to each other in mid air. They were all dazzling and blinding.

There were spiritual medicine, weapons, strange objects, but without exceptions, they were all invaluable treasures. Even those in the original level would want them.

Remember that these people were all top figures from their own realms and they represented the different forces in Yunzhou. Who would dare to use a fake good here?

After all, Ling Xian was out of the world strong. If one wants to gift him something, they would not bring something that didn’t match up to his level.

That would be the same as angering him.

Therefore, every single leader took out their valuable treasures. The 10 something treasures all together created a canvas of brightness that heated up everyone’s gaze and quickened their breathing.

Even Ling Xian was stunned for a little while. The look in his eyes warmed up.
