Xia Hou Lin died.

His skull exploded and he completely died.

This made everyone gasp for cold air. Other than fear on their faces, there was respect.

Since most people did not know who Xia Hou Gang was, they were certain that he was an important figure of the Wan Jian House. Yet Ling Xian, before his face, killed his nephew and he did nothing to stop it.

Doesn’t this prove Ling Xian to be the more powerful cultivator?

Therefore, everyone naturally admired this man. At the same time, they were also looking at the young girl with jealousy.

As for the person everyone was jealous of, the young girl was at a loss and her brain was blank.

After all, the series of events was far too shocking. Especially to a 13-to-14-year-old woman, losing her composure was normal.

“Elder Ling, I am somewhat responsible for what happened today. Don’t worry, once I return, I will evaluate my actions.”

Xia Hou Gang looked apologetic though it wasn’t clear if he meant it or if he was faking it. One thing was for sure though, he was acting like the weaker party here.

After this, Ling Xian couldn’t say much more. No matter what, he was a peak leader. Even if it were because of Dao Wu Ji, it would be difficult for Ling Xian to push him too hard.

Plus, the originator of this whole situation was dead. There was no more need to pursue further.

Therefore, Ling Xian brandished his hand and smiled, “Xia Hou leader has foregone his family relations.h.i.+p to deal with this. It’s enough. This ends here.”

“Thank you, Elder Ling for your forgiveness.” Xia Hou Gan sighed in relief. He was terrified that Ling Xian would be unforgiving and kill him here and now.

His status was technically higher than the core elder. Plus, Ling Xian’s name was not at all related to the Wan Jian House.

But reality was that Ling Xian represented 3,000 years of glory for the Wan Jian House and his status was higher than peak leaders. After that fight also, he realized that if he fights this young man, he cannot even handle one reb.u.t.tal.

He was shocked at this, and he also exclaimed at this.

“You are being too kind.” Ling Xian softly smiled. He knew Xia Hou Gang was thanking him for not pursuing the issue further.

“Oh right, the Supreme Headmaster isn’t aware of Elder Ling’s return right? I will notify him right away.” Hou Xia Gang suddenly remembered and quickly signaled Dao Wu Ji.

Ling Xian didn’t stop him. He wanted to see Dao Wu Ji as well.

Ever since he found out about the Wan Jian House, the Supreme Headmaster has been treating him with nothing but respect. Back then, he was even willing to take the risk by fighting against the three foreign kinds.

He has treated Ling Xian extremely well, which is why he was thinking on the Wan Jian House’s behalf.

After some time, 11 silhouettes approached from afar and at a fast speed. The leader of the pack was wearing all white and he held his head high. He truly looked like an extraordinary being who lived above everyone else.

It was Dao Wu Ji.

Behind him were the 11 peak leaders.

What could they do? Ling Xian’s return was a big deal. He naturally deserved the attention of the Supreme Headmaster and the 11 Peak Leaders.

“Hahaha, I knew it. Ling Xian, you wouldn’t die!”

Dao Wu Ji laughed out loud. In an instant, he reappeared beside Ling Xian, his eyes were full of joy.

The 11 peak leaders behind him were the same. They were all smiling.

To them, as long as Ling Xian doesn’t die by accident, he will for sure be the strongest powerhouse in the area and continue to lead the Wan Jian House into glory for another 3,000 years.

Therefore, after seeing how he returned to life and returned safely, they were extremely happy.

“Traitor I greet the Supreme Headmaster and the 11 Peak Leaders.” Ling Xian warmly smiled and paid his respect.

Other than the Supreme Headmaster and the Kill Sword Peak leader, the other peak leaders all returned the gesture.

Everyone was shocked at this scene.

The two pupils dressed in black especially heard their brains buzz before going blank.

Only two words played again and again in their heads.

Ling Xian!

This glorious name was one everyone in Yunzhou was familiar with. Especially in the Wan Jian House, it was a name that was as loud as thunder and known by everyone.

Therefore, why wouldn’t the two of them be stunned? After they regained their calm, they felt very fortunate – fortunate that they didn’t help Xia Hou Ling and curse at Ling Xian.

“What are you talking about? Traitor? In the entire Wan Jian House, who treats you like you are a traitor?” Dao Wu Ji rolled up his sleeves, his handsome face was full of joy.

“So, the Wan Jian House has accepted me?” Ling Xian softly smiled, his heart was warm.

“Hahaha, what do you think?”

Dao Wu Ji laughed and s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards the 11 peak leaders behind, “What do you say?”

Hearing this, the peak leaders all laughed and nodded. The intention was as clear as ever.

“Okay, then from this moment on, I remain a pupil of the Wan Jian House.” Ling Xian smiled and his heart felt warm.

“You are wrong, you are the core elder of the Wan Jian House.”

Dao Wu Ji looked at Ling Xian with a smile and looked at the astounded young girl, “You, as a core elder, did really well. You came back with a great present.”

“It was just a coincidence.” Ling Xian softly smiled. Knowing that Xia Hou Gang has told Dao Wu Ji everything.

“Coincidence or not, you saved the Wan Jian House a Heaven’s Favorite.” Dao Wu Ji laughed, then glared at Xia Hou Gang. “Go home and silently ponder over your actions.”

“Yes, Supreme Headmaster.”

Xia Hou Gang sighed in relief. Knowing that he did the right thing by telling Dao Wu Ji everything. Or else his punishment would be way worse than “ponder over his actions.”

“Let’s go, Ling Xian. Come back to my palace and we can catch up.” Dao Wu Ji faintly smiled and made a gesture to guide Ling Xian.

“It’s been many years, we really should talk.” Ling Xian nodded with a smile. He followed behind Dao Wu Ji and headed towards his mountain peak.

Only the 12 peak leaders, the young girls, and other miscellaneous characters remained behind.

The 12 peak leaders’ eyes turned hot. They fixated their gaze on the young girl as if they had just seen a rare treasure.

The Eyes of the Falling Stars!

That was a ninth-ranked Inner Eyes and was known to be able to cause stars to fall down. Those who can awaken this pair of eyes definitely have insane talents!

Therefore, why wouldn’t everyone’s heart waver at this?

Sensing everyone’s heated gaze, the young girl regained herself. The first thing she did was to search for Ling Xian’s silhouette amongst the crowd.

But Ling Xian had left, how can she find him now?

“He… left already?”

The young girl’s eyes looked sad. Then, she saw 12 extraordinary-looking people walk towards her. She couldn’t help but to be scared and jump back a few steps.

“Young girl, do not be afraid. We are the peak leaders of the Wan Jian House and we will not hurt you.” The Inquiry Sword Peak Leader chuckled, his aura was graceful and friendly.

“You are the peak leaders of the Wan Jian House?”

The young girl was a little stunned. Though she was an ordinary mortal, she knew how powerful the peak leaders of the Wan Jian House were. To her, they were unforgettable and important characters!

Therefore, of course she was stunned by their friendliness towards her
