Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Fish_Creek
The giant Sun hung high in the sky, spraying down warm sunlight . However, it wasn't warm enough to melt the chill everyone felt on the inside .
Wang Teng Fei was bathed in anger as his stare grew even more violent . Killing Wang Peng before him was the same as slapping his face and slapping the Wang Clan's face!
However, he didn't dare to move . He didn't even dare to leave behind a rude statement .
From the way Ling Xian crisply killed Wang Peng, it became obvious that he did not fear the Wang Clan and would not hesitate to kill another one of them . Thus, where would Wang Teng Fei find the guts to do anything?
He had to swallow his anger no matter how unwilling he was!
"Let's go!"
Wang Teng Fei flapped around his sleeve . Without pausing, he left .
Seeing this, the armored guards exhaled in relief . They were terrified that Wang Teng Fei would be irrational due to anger and order them to kill Ling Xian . If that was the case, then none of them would be able to survive .
Now that Wang Teng Fei had suppressed his anger, these people sighed in relief and followed him .
On the third level of the Qi Zhen Pavilion, Ling Xian sat on a mahogany chair, crossed his legs, and held onto a cup of freshly brewed tea . His casual movements and lack of concern made it seem like what he had done was not a big deal .
He wasn't aware that what he had done had dragged the entire street into a state of shock . Gong Suo Xin, who didn't believe Ling Xian would be able to get away today, was extremely astounded .
Her expression was empty as she watched Wang Teng Fei and them leave . After a long while did she find herself again .
"Phew… I thought I overestimated you, but it seems like I underestimated you . "
After a long sigh, Gong Suo Xin shifted her gaze towards Ling Xian . Her expression was filled with shock, astonishment, and some respect .
"It's been eight years . I am not someone who walks on the same spot . I have to grow a little and move forward . " Ling Xian grinned faintly, didn't think of his growth as much of an achievement .
Eight years ago, a completion levelled cultivator was his ideal goal . But now, a completion levelled powerhouse on the weaker side is no longer his opponent .
This was what he gained in the past eight years!
"You didn't just grow a little…"
Gong Suo Xin shook her head with a wry smile and exclaimed, "Back then, I admired your potential and knew that you will one day grow into a towering tree . Even so, I didn't expect your speed of growth to be this insane . In merely eight years you have grown into a powerhouse that's above other completion levelled cultivators . You are the brightest of them all . "
"Mistress Gong, you are being kind . "
Ling Xian softly chuckled, his eyes full of anticipation, "I am not the brightest . There are many more people who are more powerful than I am . Only when I become undefeatable in the completion level will I see myself as successful .
Noticing Ling Xian's anticipation, Gong Suo Xin silently exclaimed, "The saying is true, once one realizes one can fly high, one dares to compete with the height of the sky . "
"Alright, stop flattering me . " Ling Xian took back his smile and turned serious again, "I am willing to help you gain control of the Pavilion . I wonder what I have to do?"
Hearing this, Gong Suo Xin's eyes brightened . But very quickly, they darkened again and she sighed, "If this was five years ago and you showed up with your capabilities today, then the seat of the leader would certainly be mine . But these days… capabilities cannot solve the problem . "
"Capabilities cannot solve the problem…"
Ling Xian frowned slightly and continued, "The Qi Zhen Pavilion truly is powerful and it makes sense that it does not take a single completion levelled cultivator seriously . However, there has to be a solution . "
"Of course there are solutions . The Qi Zhen Pavilion is a business after all . Its goal is to make money . " Gong Suo Xin's eyes were dim . She withheld no hope . She was simply explaining because of Ling Xian's determined gaze, "If I can conduct a very profitable business for the Pavilion, I may advance in terms of my performance and once again be a competitor . "
"Profitable business?"
Ling Xian frowned and understood what Gong Suo Xin meant . In plain words, she needed spiritual stones, endless amount of them . This was something he had .
Thus, his brows relaxed and he laughed, "I thought it would be really difficult . It turned out to be so easy . "
"Easy?"
Gong Suo Xin chortled from anger, "Ling Xian, do you not understand the Qi Zhen Pavilion's capability? It is the number one Trading Convention of the Qin Dynasty . A profitable business to the Pavilion involves a fortune . A number that you cannot even fathom!"
"Let me put it this way, the Third Tribe's candidate has a sales achievement of 80,000,000 spiritual stones . These years, despite my hard work, my sales only accumulated to 12,000,000 . In other words, I would need to conduct a trade that costs 70,000,000 spiritual stones to match that guy . "
Gong Suo Xin had a melancholy grin, "Even if I do surpass him in terms of work, I cannot take his place in the current Leader's mind . "
70,000,000 spiritual stones . This, without a doubt, was an astronomical amount and a number that stripped all hope . This was why Gong Suo Xin had given up and had no hope regarding her future .
