The Third Prince was a popular figure in the Zhou Dynasty . According to legends, when he was born, there were rainbows in the sky and lotuses grew out of the earth . He was born to be talented and fortunate .
He grew up not wasting anyone's high expectation . In his cultivation journey, he forged on proudly and loudly . Fending off everyone in his generation, he was known to be the tall mountain that nobody his generation can surpass!
In the entire world, the Third Prince could be considered one of the strongest in his generation . Yet, he was killed by a cultivator in the intermediate stage of the completion level . How could the people in the Zhou Dynasty not feel shocked?
When these people heard the news that the emperor personally attacked the murderer yet the murderer still got away, they were even more shocked . Shocked to a point of no return!
At once, the words Ling Xian once again echoed throughout the Zhou Dynasty and his name shone like the Sun in the sky!
As time went on, this astonishing news slowly left the Zhou Dynasty and created a rainy storm that flooded the entire Yunzhou!
All nomadic cultivators and all powerful forces in Yunzhou had heard this news . Then, like all the citizens of the Zhou Dynasty, they fell into shock .
After that, everyone recalled the Heaven's Favorite who incited Yunzhou from seven years ago!
Ling Xian!
This name had astonished Yunzhou before, and not just once . Because of Noble Xiao Yao's punch seven years ago, did this name silence and fade . Everyone thought he had died .
It was impossible for him to still be alive .
After all, he experienced space turbulence . Even those of the original level may not survive that!
But today, the news containing the name Ling Xian was once again spread around . He once again did something astonishing . How could the citizens of Yunzhou not be surprised?
Other than shock, everyone also exclaimed .
Back then, Ling Xian's name transcended throughout Yunzhou despite his young age . What he relied on was his natural talent and the power of his Eyes of Execution, not his own capabilities .
Today, he returned as a completion levelled cultivator . His capabilities were now at a level that was harder to achieve for normal cultivators . What a transformation!
Remember that he was living outside the continents for seven years . Yet within these short years, he achieved such glory . How could people not exclaim?
After much exclamation, everyone in Yunzhou also began to praise him . Even the best of the best, who were only training in Yunzhou, couldn't help but to express their surprise .
Nomadic cultivators and all controlling forces were discussing about Ling Xian . At once, there were no other news being passed around . Everyone talked about was the Heaven's Favorite who caused a turmoil in Yunzhou!
Just like that, Ling Xian, with his overbearing attitude and his attention-snatching actions, announced his return!
. . .
The Ling Xian right now could be described as a shining jewel with blinding light . His lustre had covered everything and everyone in this land . It was as if he was the only remaining person here .
This was all because the entire Yunzhou was trembling because of him and learned of his return!
The Wan Jian House was no exception .
Eight years ago, the name Ling Xian had been engraved onto everyone's heart in the Wan Jian House . It was all because one of their Elders risked his life to knock on the Drum of Eternity to alert the entire Wan Jian House .
Once everyone heard about Ling Xian's glorious achievements, his name naturally became engrained in everyone . Then, these people would hear news about him occasionally and be shocked over what they heard . Every single astonishing achievement he accomplished deepened his name into everyone's memories .
It was until the news seven years ago did these people start to forget about this person . However, they always saw him highly and never forgot .
Now that Ling Xian had returned and once again turned Yunzhou upside down, he awakened everyone's memory in the Wan Jian House .
Thus, the entire Wan Jian House fell into chaos . As much as they were shocked, they felt honored .
All because Ling Xian was a member of the Wan Jian House!
Though he never went through the traditional ceremony nor did he ever reveal his face, everyone in the Wan Jian House, including the Supreme Headmaster, viewed him as their own!
Thus, the more powerful Ling Xian got, the prouder they felt .
Currently, on top of the Wan Jian House Supreme Headmaster's mountain peak, Dao Wu Ji wore all white and let his hair down . His immortal like stance was extraordinary and unparalleled .
Behind him, stood a graceful looking man with a similar temperament . He played around with his fan . Though looking distinguishable and suave, compared to Dao Wu Ji, he paled somewhat .
It was the Peak Leader of Seek Sword Peak .
"He truly is a Heaven's Favorite that I place a lot of hope in . To return in such a manner sure differentiates him," Dao Wu Ji chuckled . His tone expressed how much admiration he had for Ling Xian .
"That is true . Upon his return, he caused such a ridiculous incident . He sure has guts . " The refined looking man continued to play with his fan . His voice was full of shock .
"If he wasn't this gutsy, I wouldn't admire him so much…"
The corner of Dao Wu Ji's lips curled up as his handsome face showed a trace of a teasing smile, "I bet the Zhou Dynasty emperor is hopping up and down from anger . "
"That is for sure . Someone killed his beloved son on his land and escaped right under his palm . No matter how much he suppresses, he cannot endure this . "
The graceful man grinned but then it turned into a frown, "However, this whole thing is causing far too much noise . The emperor will not let Ling Xian off the hook . "
"So what?" Dao Wu Ji's lips curled and made a presumptuous statement .
"If he dares to touch Ling Xian, I will declare war against the great Zhou Dynasty!"
The volume of his voice was not loud, but it was powerful and allowed no questions . From this, one could conclude two things . One, he wanted to protect Ling Xian and was even willing to fight a war for him .
Two, he was a person that was dominating and gutsy!
It was no wonder that he was the leader of the Wan Jian House!
"Supreme Headmaster, you truly…"
The Seek Sword Peak leader shook his head, not knowing what to say . His eyes however, were flickering with respect . This Supreme Headmaster was someone worth following .
"When we are talking in private, there is no need to call me Headmaster . I like it better when you call me Senior Brother . "
Dao Wu Ji gently smiled . His actions were graceful and kind, as if that arrogant statement did not just come out of his mouth .
"Okay, Senior Brother . " The graceful man shook his head, "What are you plans for Ling Xian?"
"What plans? I simply do not allow anyone to hurt him . Of course, if someone of the same level fights him, I will not meddle . I don't want to spoil him . "
Dao Wu Ji stared off into the distance and whispered, "But, if someone in a level higher than him attacks, then I will not be friendly . "
"You are right . "
The graceful man used his fan and grinned, "Speaking of which, Ling Xian sure is shockingly talented . His battling experiences must also be very colorful . Or else there would be no way for him to kill the Third Prince, who was a stage higher than him . "
"Yeah, as a completion levelled cultivator in the intermediate stage, he killed a Heaven's Favorite of the advanced stage . " Dao Wu Ji's gaze was overflowing with praises, "That young man probably reached the undefeatable stage of the foundation level before advancing to the completion level . "
"That's right . I say, this man truly is a phoenix in a crowd of humans . In the entire Yunzhou, I bet nobody in his generation is an opponent of his . " The graceful man sighed and exclaimed at Ling Xian's cultivation speed and battling abilities .
"That may not be true . That insane person from the Undead House, and the genius who never shows his face from the House of Void, may be of the same level as him . " Dao Wu Ji faintly beamed, his eyes full of anticipation, "I anticipate the day Ling Xian defeats those two . It will be the moment he rises above everyone of his own generation!"
"I anticipate that day as well . "
The graceful man swung around his fan and chuckled, "I remember seven years ago, everyone on Yunzhou thought he had died . Only you firmly believed that he lived . I wonder what made you believe that? I didn't know you could foresee the future . "
"Those shaman's job is not something I understand . "
The corner of Dao Wu Ji's lips lifted, "The reason why I thought he lived was purely based on a sense . I just knew he wouldn't die so easily . "
"Reality has proved that my feelings were right . "
Pausing, Dao Wu Ji continued, "Like I said back then, if Ling Xian does not return to Yunzhou within a decade, then I will personal end Nobel Xiao Yao . Today, it appears that he only used seven years to return to Yunzhou . He exceeded my prediction by three years . "
"Senior brother, you are so accurate with the way you judge people . " The graceful man teased, "How about this, make another guess . Do you think Ling Xian's next stop will be our House? If so, when?"
"This is not difficult to predict at all . " Dao Wu Ji smiled, "I anticipate that he will rush to the Wan Jian House . The day he arrives is not too far away . "
Then, he shifted his gaze towards the blue sky with dense anticipation .
"Ling Xian, I, as well as the Wan Jian House, wait for your arrival . "
. . .
Just as the entire Yunzhou was shocked about Ling Xian, he was casually going to the Wan Jian House . He enjoyed the sceneries throughout his journey and stopped by wherever he wanted .
His actions made him look like a rich man's son rather than a Heaven's Favorite who just turned Yunzhou upside down .
Since he began his journey, he had faced countless number of difficulties and he lived his life tensely . Now that his hatred was resolved, he had to take some time to relax and forget about all his other responsibilities .
He was making time to relax .
Just like that, he went on his way while thoroughly enjoying his time . He admired the mountains, paid attention to the flowers, and enjoyed the clouds .
After a full two months, did he finally exit his tranquil mind set . He called out to his Winged Blitz and walked towards the Wan Jian House .
Though these down times were very joyful, he will not forget his dreams and he will not forget his responsibilities .
Thus, Ling Xian expanded his wings and glided across the sky like a shooting star .
After about another half a month, he finally arrived at the Wan Jian house .
The sword-like mountain that connected Heaven and Earth was now within his vision .
