Chapter 1026: Chapter 1023: Making a Mountain Out of a Molehill

The crowd instinctively looked towards Zhonghu Hermit, as although they were unsure of the matter Qin Huan mentioned, it must be significant.

Participating in such an event was indeed a blessing beyond measure.

Unexpectedly, Zhonghu Hermit shook his head: ”As of now, there are no leads on that matter.”

”If there were any clues, I would certainly inform you all at the first opportunity!”

At this moment, another Golden Core Period Expert stood up with a confused look in his eyes: ”Since it’s not because of that matter, why did the fellow cultivator invite all the cultivators from the South China Region here?”

Zhonghu Hermit is known for being carefree and rarely participates in large gatherings, which is why many were puzzled by his act of inviting everyone to the Mountain and Water Manor.

Zhonghu Hermit chuckled and said: ”To be honest, a few days ago, I suddenly received a message from a mysterious expert. It was he who asked me to invite everyone here to gather at the Mountain and Water Manor today.”

”As for who that mysterious expert is, or what their cultivation level is, I am not aware of.”

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere instantly turned deathly silent.

Everyone’s eyes revealed unmistakable shock.

It’s important to note that Zhonghu Hermit is a Golden Core Stage Peak expert, even among the myriad of experts in the Kunlun Mountains Minor World, he is considered elite.

For him to not know who contacted him, or what that person’s cultivation level is, how could it not be shocking?

Indeed, many doubted Zhonghu Hermit’s words.

But given that the Mountain and Water Manor was shrouded in a powerful Spirit Gathering Array,

it seemed that Zhonghu Hermit wasn’t lying.

After all, arranging such a level of Spirit Gathering Array is impossible for ordinary people; the person must be a super expert.

The crowd didn’t think much further.

For cultivators, they enjoy such large gatherings as they can barter, exchanging idle items for useful cultivation resources.

Naturally,

they also enjoy staying at the Mountain and Water Manor because the spiritual energy here is incredibly rich; one day of cultivation here is equivalent to a month outside.

”Hey, you must be Liu Mang, right? How did you end up here?” Qin Yuan was thinking of using the Spirit Stone given by Qin Huan to exchange for some interesting items, when he saw Liu Mang.

Liu Mang looked nervous: ”Do you know me?”

Qin Yuan burst into laughter: ”I believe many people in Huaxia know you. Moreover, they greatly envy your fortune and luck.”

”I just remembered, when he was young, he seemed to acquire a rare Flamecloud Vermilion Fruit.”

”Is it really him?”

Exclaims of surprise erupted from the crowd.

The Flamecloud Vermilion Fruit, an extremely rare Spirit Fruit, could transform an ordinary person and build a solid foundation.

Qin Yuan looked at Liu Mang with disdain: ”You’re just an ant among the mortals, if not for a stroke of luck getting a Spirit Fruit, how could you have successfully reached Foundation Establishment?”

”Even if you did fortunately reach Foundation Establishment, you aren’t qualified to attend today’s gathering.”

”Tell me, were you invited here?”

Nervous, Liu Mang shook his head: ”I did not receive any invitation.”

Upon hearing this,

Qin Yuan’s eyes flashed with brilliance; he had previously dreaded the Mountain and Water Manor and the mysterious expert behind the Jiang Family.

But now, he saw a chance to overthrow the Jiang Family.

He snorted heavily: ”The Jiang Family neglected their duty, allowing outsiders in privately; such an act is disrespectful to that mysterious expert, and in my opinion, deserves severe punishment!”

”They must pay dearly for this.”

Upon hearing this, many slightly nodded, agreeing with Qin Yuan.

Because in the eyes of the cultivators of Kunlun Mountains, even though Liu Mang obtained some fortune, he was not qualified to enter here and attend the gathering, which was deeply disrespectful to them.

The scene quickly became chaotic.

Nervously, Liu Mang spoke: ”It wasn’t the Jiang Family who let me in; I sneaked in myself. This has nothing to do with them!”

He didn’t expect that his entry would cause dissatisfaction among so many people.

Though it was Xu Wendong who let him in,

he didn’t want to implicate Xu Wendong or the Jiang Family.

Thus, he lied about sneaking in by himself.

”Young man, are you insulting our intelligence?” Qin Huan walked over from afar expressionlessly, radiating strong energy: ”This place has a rare formation, and there’s only one entrance to the Mountain and Water Manor. I refuse to believe you entered without permission!”

”Why is Daoist Qin Huan so mad?” Wu Yongheng came forward with one hand behind his back: ”Though this young friend is from the mortal world, he has considerable fortune; a Foundation Establishment Cultivation Level can certainly impress his peers and qualifies him to attend today’s gathering, there’s no need to make a fuss over such a trivial matter.”

Qin Huan heavily snorted: ”Is Daoist Wu intending to protect this boy?”

Before, Wu Yongheng would certainly not dare to confront Qin Huan as his cultivation level was inferior.

But at this moment, he was entirely fearless.

No emotion could be seen on his face: ”I’m not protecting little friend Liu Mang, just think it’s unnecessary to make a big deal over this small matter and ruin the harmony.”

Qin Huan’s eyes flashed with cold intent: ”What if I must make a big deal of it?”

Wu Yongheng released a powerful aura.

Though his cultivation wasn’t as high as Qin Huan’s,

at this moment, he absolutely wouldn’t let him ruin today’s atmosphere.

Just then,

Xu Wendong appeared, wearing a white shirt, black trousers, leather shoes, and with an unlit cigarette in his mouth: ”Is there any room for you to speak here?”

”Xu Wendong, are you seeking death!” Qin Yuan was furious: ”You’re just a dog by Jiang Xueyao’s side, what right do you have to shout before Senior Qin? If you’re seeking death, just cough, and I’ll fulfill it for you!”

Before Xu Wendong could speak, the nearby Zhonghu Hermit turned pale with fear, his eyes filled with terror.

Although he hadn’t met that powerful senior,

still,

that senior had transmitted a soul message to him!

Now, by discerning from the voice, he confirmed Xu Wendong’s identity as the mysterious expert who had earlier transmitted a soul message to him.

”Wish to kill me?” Xu Wendong sneered: ”Young Master Qin, you’ve overestimated your strength; not just you, even that old man behind you can dream of harming me.”

Upon hearing this, astonished cries burst out among the crowd. No one expected the gatekeeper to be so arrogant, daring not to put Qin Huan, the Golden Core Eighth Layer expert, in his eyes.

Qin Huan’s eyes showed fierce killing intent: ”Young man, you are exceedingly arrogant.”

Xu Wendong completely ignored him, looking at Qin Yuan: ”Young Master Qin, do you still remember our previous wager?”

Qin Yuan subconsciously swallowed: ”What if I remember, and what if I don’t?”

”We bet our lives!” Xu Wendong grinned evilly: ”Now that you lost, I’m taking your life!”

Qin Yuan laughed unabashedly: ”With Senior Qin here, how could you take my life?”
