Chapter 1924
1924 Heartache, don’t bring up the past again
“What are you all doing? disperse and do what you should be doing.” A lazy voice was heard. Only then did an old man slowly appear.
The old man was wearing a coarse long shirt that had been washed a little white. He looked very simple and even a little shabby. Of course, compared to these villagers, his clothes were still very bright. From the outside, this old man looked more like a pedantic teacher in a private school, but his body faintly exuded an indescribable Majesty.
Although he didn’t reveal any of his strength, the slap Ling Gusong had just received was enough to prove how terrifyingly strong the old man was.
Everyone quieted down. Although some of them were still thinking about something, they moved their lips but no sound came out. Then, they retreated one by one. It was obvious that this old man had a lot of prestige in the village.
Very quickly, everyone had left, leaving only Ling Chuxi and the others standing at their original positions. Only then did the old man turn around, his gaze sweeping across the faces of Ling Chuxi and the others one by one.
Ling Gusong also looked at the old man. He was so aggrieved that tears were about to fall again.”You have such strength and prestige. Why did you come earlier or later? why did you have to wait until I was drenched in dog blood? and you sent me flying with a slap without even knowing the truth. Are you trying to embarrass me?” I don’t have any grudges with you, do you have to be like this?
Unfortunately, the old man turned a blind eye to his aggrieved expression, as if he did not exist at all. This was complete disregard, but Ling Gusong didn’t think it was inappropriate at all. With the strength of the other party, he was indeed qualified to ignore him.
“Are you guys preparing to go to boundless mountain?” The old man asked.
“That’s right. We’re going to boundless mountain. Please give us some pointers.” Said Ling Chuxi as she bowed. She felt that this old man was somewhat familiar, but she could not remember where she had seen him before.
“Follow me.” The old man didn’t say much and walked towards the back of the village.
Ling Chuxi and the others followed behind the old man. The more she looked at the old man’s back, the more familiar he felt. However, no matter how hard she racked her brains, she could not remember where she had seen him before.
“May I ask how I should address you, Sir?” Ling Chuxi could not help but ask.
“He’s just a village man, I’ve long forgotten his name. ” The old man said indifferently, with the air of a hermit.
An expert, this was definitely an expert. This was the first thought that flashed through Ling Chuxi’s mind. The old man in front of him must be a master who had hidden himself from the world. With such strength, he chose to hide his name here. Perhaps he had already seen through the mortal world. Seeing that the old man was not willing to say more, Ling Chuxi did not continue to ask.
Not long after, they followed the old man to a cliff at the back of the village. There was a huge bluestone on the ground that was covered with moss, but the patterns under the moss were still vaguely visible. If they were not wrong, this was the teleportation array that led to boundless mountain.
He remembered that the fee for using the Feng Yan Union’s teleportation array to reach the sect’s holy altar realm was not low. Ling Chuxi had already prepared gold notes and black jade crystals in advance. Seeing the black jade crystals that Ling Chuxi took out, Ling Gusong could not help but recall the past and felt a wave of sadness. He was also a rich man in the past. But later on, sigh … Don’t bring up the past.
“Boundless mountain isn’t the sect’s Saint realm. As long as you’re not a Grandmaster, you can come and go freely. You don’t need to pay any money.” The old man waved his hand with a carefree expression.
