Translator: 549690339
Fulong Mountain was originally a scenic spot in Lingnan, with tourists like clouds on a normal day.
But today, there were many more security guards in front of Fulong Mountain.
“I’m sorry, sir, Fulong Mountain is temporarily closed today and not open to visitors!” said the security guard politely.
The rich tycoon being stopped glared, “Do you know who I am? You dare to stop me? Get lost!”
“I’m sorry, sir, no matter who you are, Fulong Mountain is not open to the public today!”
The tycoon, with a thick gold chain around his neck, couldn’t help but get furious, “Are you deaf? Don’t you understand human speech? Believe it or not, if you stop me again, I’ll make sure you can’t get by in Lingnan?”
The smile on the security guard’s face didn’t change, “I believe you, but today’s Fulong Mountain is off-limits to everyone because this is an order issued by the Yu Family!”
The previously arrogant tycoon’s expression froze.
The Yu Family?
Although he considered himself to have some influence in Lingnan, he knew he was nothing compared to the Yu Family, not even worth a strand of hair.
The atmosphere turned very awkward, and at that moment, a monk carrying a large stone on his back slowly walked up to the mountain.
All the security guards respectfully cleared the way, and the monk stepped into the mountain.
At the same time, people in various strange outfits began to appear, and they all entered the mountain as well.
The tycoon shuddered and turned to leave.
He knew in his heart that something big… was going to happen on Fulong Mountain today!
At this moment.
At the platform on the peak of Fulong Mountain, many people had already gathered.
Aside from Hidden Immortal Sects, many people from smaller sects had also come.
These smaller sects gathered together, whispering among themselves.
“This year’s Immortal Gate Assembly is unprecedented!”
“Indeed, it’s said that many noble families and sects that have never shown themselves are here this time.”
Just then, Hui Nian carrying his sutra stone slowly walked up to the platform and found a corner to sit down cross-legged.
“What a formidable aura this Great Monk has!” someone exclaimed.
“Shh! This Great Monk is no ordinary person, he’s Master Hui Nian from the Bitter Zen Temple outside the borders! It’s said his cultivation level has reached that of a Loose Immortal.”
Hiss!
Many took a sharp intake of breath.
A Loose Immortal!
Hui Nian looked to be only around thirty years old, and he had already reached the level of a Loose Immortal?
More and more people continued to arrive.
“That’s White Dragon Elder from the White Dragon Sect! It’s said that this sect has been in seclusion for many years, and yet they’ve also come?”
“Good heavens, isn’t that the Taiji Immortal Master from Taiji Tower!”
“And the Murderous Prince from Shura Island!”
“There’s someone from Golden Lion Tower!”
Amidst the exclamations of the crowd, the long-unseen hidden Immortal Sects made their appearances one after another.
A myriad of overwhelming auras caused the entire Fulong Mountain to tremble slightly.
And at this time, Shu Ying’er also stepped onto the platform.
Moonwatching Pavilion held a special status among the Hidden Immortal Sects, so when she arrived, many stood up to nod and greet her.
Especially the White Dragon Elder from White Dragon Sect, who couldn’t help but brighten up at the sight of her and approached with a smile, “Ying’er, long time no see!”
Shu Ying’er smiled slightly, “White Dragon senior brother, I didn’t expect you to come too!”
White Dragon replied proudly with a smile, “I was in seclusion during the last Immortal Gate Assembly and missed it, so of course I wouldn’t miss this one!”
The two chatted and laughed as they walked aside.
Following them onto the high platform was Jin Chengsuo from H country, whose appearance caused many to change their expressions slightly.
“It’s that demon blade young master from H country!”
“Damn, that guy killed many of our Huaxia’s experts last time, and he dares to come again!”
Jin Chengsuo squinted his eyes and surveyed everyone in the arena, but to his disappointment, he couldn’t spot the figure he had been longing to see.
Meanwhile, Kong Yuandai and Yuan Zongfeng also made their way onto the high platform.
Many people were thoroughly shocked this time.
“Did the Yuan Family from Jibei come too?”
“Why have they joined forces with Night Demon Valley?”
“The situation has gotten even more complicated!”
Many couldn’t help but look grave, for in terms of strength, the Yuan Family from Jibei ranked among the top within the Hidden Immortal Sects.
The successor of Night Demon Valley was notorious for being ruthless, and if they formed an alliance, it would add many uncertainties to this Immortal Gate Convention.
“Almost everyone has arrived, right?” Yuan Zongfeng, with his hands behind his back, said arrogantly.
Kong Yuandai glanced over the crowd and then let out a cold little laugh, “We are still missing one person!”
“Oh? Who are we missing?”
“Naturally, it’s that good friend of mine from Lingying Palace!” Kong Yuandai said with a face full of hatred.
Yuan Zongfeng laughed, “If she’s not here by now, she probably doesn’t dare to come!”
No sooner had he spoken than a group of people were seen walking up the path from the base of the mountain.
One of the women in the group caught Kong Yuandai’s eye, prompting her to grind her teeth and say, “Who said she doesn’t dare to come? Isn’t she… coming now?”
Yuan Zongfeng followed Kong Yuandai’s gaze and was also taken aback.
In terms of looks and temperament, Shi Xueqing was far superior to Kong Yuandai.
Furthermore, Yuan Zongfeng could tell that Shi Xueqing had a pure aura, evidently still a virgin!
He had heard that taking the Yuan Yin of the successor of Lingying Palace, who was like the successor of Night Demon Valley, would be enormously beneficial to one’s own cultivation level.
Thinking this, Yuan Zongfeng’s eyes flickered.
At this time, everyone else also noticed the newcomers.
“It’s the dame from Lingying Palace! Eh! Why is she mingling with the Yu Family folks?”
“Hehe, haven’t you heard? Kong Yuandai from Night Demon Valley has a deep feud with Shi Xueqing, and now that Kong Yuandai has latched onto the Yuan Family, of course, she had to find herself a backup too!”
Someone shook their head and said, “That Shi Xueqing is not very wise. I heard that Yu Lang and Yu Ming, the father and son duo, are both wounded, and Yu Yuanyi has already fallen. The Yu Family itself is in jeopardy, yet she still seeks attachment? That’s asking for death!”
“Hehe, there’s gonna be a good show now. The Yu Family sure is bold, at a time like this they ought to lay low, yet they still dare to attend the Immortal Gate Convention?” someone said with a sneer.
“Hey, look at that person, why did he bring children too?”
The crowd turned their heads and, surely enough, they saw a man holding two cherubic little girls, also ascending the high platform.
“Could this man be treating the Immortal Gate Convention as a vacation?” someone ridiculed.
Many others shook their heads discreetly, as the man holding the children seemed unremarkable, clearly an ordinary person.
At this moment, Xue Xiang and Xue Nian whispered in Xue An’s ear, “Daddy, all these people are so strange!”
Xue An smiled, “If they’re strange, don’t look at them. After Daddy takes care of them, I’ll take you girls to eat something good!”
“Yes, yes!” the two daughters nodded repeatedly.
However, his words also drew many sidelong glances.
Take care of all of them?
This man… what a boastful claim!
Kong Yuandai could no longer contain herself at this point, and with a swaying waist, she walked over and said with a scornful smile, “Why, Sister Shi, long time no see. What happened to your attire? Could it be that Lingying Palace has fallen to such lows that you can’t even afford proper clothes anymore? Tsk tsk!”
