Chapter 926 - Chapter 926 Chapter 930 The Best Fortune

Chapter 926: Chapter 930: The Best Fortune Chapter 926: Chapter 930: The Best Fortune Linghu Ling also felt that Zhu Minglang’s “nonsense” made a lot of sense.

Conveniently, it had been Immortal Master Lu Wu who had taken over her duties guarding this place in recent days, so she didn’t need to stay here. If all went well, they should be able to quickly eliminate the Evil Sword Sect.

“Okay, the two of us will set out,” Linghu Ling nodded, agreeing to the plan.

“No, not just us two, there’s another person who I believe will know more about these strange Ancient Species,” Zhu Minglang said.

…

Ling Song truly lived up to his reputation as a God Thief.

His light-footed skills were exceptional. A journey of thousands of miles, and he didn’t even need half a day’s time.

Upon arriving in Desolate Hope Town, he saw Linghu Ling and, feeling a bit like a guilty thief, gave a respectful greeting to this True God of Yuheng Star Territory, then stood behind Zhu Minglang.

It was probably the overwhelming sense of righteousness emanating from Linghu Ling that intimidated this Loose Immortal who was used to thieving.

“Regarding those keys, I hope you give me the most truthful version today. If you don’t take this last chance to speak honestly, I’ll have to cut out your tongue, full of lies as it is, and feed it to the dogs,” Zhu Minglang stated.

“Superior God, you never actually asked me!”

“Is that so?” Zhu Minglang raised an eyebrow.

Zhu Minglang seemed to unconsciously assume that behind the Azure Bronze Door and Silver Dawn Door, there must be mountains of treasures.

He hadn’t anticipated mountains of monsters instead–and of the oldest kind!

“I’ll tell the truth. In fact, my ancient Immortal’s House is the guardian family of the three Ancient Gates. Those Ancient Species, alive since the Primordial Era, are so strong that even gods might not be their match. There was a Divine King who, along with a group of immortals, exiled them to a Prison Continent. This Prison Continent is completely sealed by the Void Sea–a star continent where the spiritual energy is sparse and the land barren. Even a supreme Ancient Yao will slowly waste away until its monster essence is depleted there,” Ling Song confessed, not daring to hide any longer.

“Then why leave three gates? If the exile is complete, they should be left to thrive or perish within that Prison Continent,” Linghu Ling questioned with confusion.

“The gates, of course, weren’t made for them to escape but to throw other caught Ancient Yao into. The great world is constantly breaking apart and reassembling, and enormous monsters are inevitably born. Our entire hidden Immortal family has always lived by capturing monsters. From the age of six, we start learning how to deal with the world’s monsters, especially the Ancient Species… Alas, by my generation, our Immortal House has declined, and even I, the inheritor, have taken another path of cultivation, finding it too difficult to carry the heavy responsibility of guarding these Ancient Species,” Ling Song sighed.

“Then can the key truly seal the three gates?” Linghu Ling immediately inquired.

“It should be able to, I guess. I can’t be certain, after all, I left my lifeless Family Door quite early. When I went back, the elders had left me with very little. I, a Loose Cultivator who has always enjoyed having an easy life, suddenly took on the heavy duty given by my family’s Immortal Gate. I was panicked and didn’t know what to do,” Ling Song explained.

It was clear that Ling Song had no intention of taking responsibility for this matter.

Nor did he have the ability to do so.

The decline and withering of the entire Immortal family couldn’t be blamed on him alone.

After all, human life is too limited. Even if one’s will is strong, it’s difficult to influence one’s descendants, let alone future generations.

In other words, the Immortal Gate that guarded the Ancient Species was literally outlived by the long lifespan of the Ancient Species.

“The God Territory won’t merge, and the Ancient Gate won’t break. Who could have foreseen such events?” Ling Song added.

“Regardless, we must try. Even if this thing cannot repair the Ancient Gate, we can’t let it scatter in the world. The power it contains is terribly formidable,” Linghu Ling said.

Zhu Minglang nodded; he had witnessed the power of this object for himself.

The fragments were manageable, but a complete, large piece…

Unthinkable!

“However, with the help of two Superior Gods, I still have a little confidence that we can find them all. So where should we begin, the temples of Tian Shu God Country or the Green Water Cities?” Ling Song asked.

“How did you come to know that most of the Silver Dawn Shards have scattered in these two places?” Zhu Minglang inquired.

“Heh, our family did pass on some capabilities to me. I can sense the locations of these shards…” Ling Song said.

“So, when you stole my things in Xuange Country Capital, it wasn’t a coincidence?” Zhu Minglang said.

“Superior God, actually, I’m not completely without conscience. I knew that my own strength wasn’t enough, and even holding just a small fragment could have torn me apart, so the only way I could serve my Family Door was to wait, to wait until someone, some organization gathered these things, and then steal them away… Hehe!” Ling Song revealed his white teeth, his laugh brimming with cunning.

Zhu Minglang gave a wry smile.

He, too, had been one of Ling Song’s fish on the hook. After he had painstakingly collected the Azure Bronze Key in White Marsh, it was so smoothly taken from him. If not for the keen eyes of the White Marsh Crow, all his efforts would have been in vain.

“Hold on, where did you say there was still some?” Zhu Minglang suddenly remembered something and questioned Ling Song.

“The temple near White Earth in Tian Shu God Country, you must have passed it on your way here to Desolate Hope Town,” Ling Song said.

The temple guarded by the Female Arhat??

Zhu Minglang described it in detail to ensure it was the same place Ling Song had mentioned.

This is getting interesting!

It turned out that Tian Shu God Manor was not only collecting the Divine Jade that could nourish souls but was also competing with the Evil Sword Sect for the Silver Dawn Shard.

What do they want the Silver Dawn Shards for?

“Tian Shu God Manor??” Linghu Ling furrowed her brows.

The Evil Sword Sect wasn’t a big deal; they were already at odds with their Yuheng Star Palace, and they could simply destroy their Sect and take what they wanted.

But Tian Shu God Manor was Hua Chou’s Lower God Organization, and even with her high status in Yuheng, Linghu Ling didn’t dare to offend the power of a Star God lightly.

“Yes, strangely enough, the power contained in these Silver Dawn Shards is filled with too much malice, it’s practically useless to True Gods and the upright factions. I also don’t understand why the people from Tian Shu God Manor want to collect them in large quantities,” Ling Song said.

“We will first head to the Evil Sword Sect to get the Silver Dawn Shards in their hands. As for Tian Shu God Manor, we can figure it out when we get back–either negotiate with them or…” Linghu Ling left the second half of her sentence unsaid.

“If it really comes down to it, we can just steal it secretly. If the plan is foolproof, we might not even need to expose our identities,” Zhu Minglang said after a long silence, making a small suggestion.

“This is my specialty!” Ling Song said.

Linghu Ling, however, hesitated.

Starting a conflict with Tian Shu God Manor was not her preference; she was more inclined to negotiate with them.

“No rush; let’s go to the Evil Sword Sect first,” Zhu Minglang said.

“Okay!”

…

Zhu Minglang kept silent.

He had been wondering what reasonable excuse he could use to persuade Linghu Ling to help him steal from Hua Chou.

After all, Linghu Ling had agreed to help him on the condition that they did not do anything against the natural order, and without a justifiable reason to seize a Star God’s tribute, she might refuse.

Now, however, things came together naturally.

There was no need for Zhu Minglang to fabricate reasons anymore.

Everything had fallen into place…

It was surely the result of having calculated one’s fortunes–drawing the top fortune! By just being here, opportunity had presented itself to him, even a perfectly plausible motive for the deed had been prepared for him. Zhu Minglang couldn’t help but feel that Xuange God had deliberately arranged this; otherwise, how could it all be so coincidental.
