Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

Chapter 153: Chapter 119: Coming Thick and Fast, Celestial Sword Shocking Lei (Two-in-One)

After the night talk with Ning Qi, Taoist Longshan no longer harbored his previous worries. He understood Ning Qi’s personality very well; since Ning Qi said he had it under control, he must have a plan to deal with it.

Taoist Longshan’s mindset gradually became calm.

He even somewhat anticipated how his young disciple would respond if the Thunder Blade Sovereign truly arrived.

This naturally also affected the other True Martial disciples.

The others, seeing Taoist Longshan so composed, thought he must have received approval from True Man Tianjian, which secretly excited them even more.

However, with Luo Wentian’s restraint, the True Martial disciples did not go around boasting.

Luo Wentian was well aware.

At such a critical moment, it was better to remain low-key and humble, or they might become targets of others’ envy.

He had originally planned to select some outstanding disciples to travel to the True Profound Sect in the coming days, but this matter forced a delay.

Time slowly passed by.

The atmosphere in the Martial Realm grew more intense day by day.

Countless eyes were eagerly awaiting, with many people having already arrived from nearby to Qing State or even to True Martial City.

A significant portion believed that the Thunder Blade Sovereign coming to challenge was only a matter of time due to the overwhelming trend, so they came early to secure a place.

In such an atmosphere, the True Martial disciples also became somewhat nervous.

But unexpectedly.

The first to set foot on True Martial Mountain was not the Thunder Blade Sovereign.

Instead, it was an unexpected guest. "Greetings, Town North King." Taoist Longshan, accompanied by many disciples, paid respects.

He gazed at the dignified middle-aged man and the boy opposite, stirring various guesses in his mind, wondering why the Town North King suddenly brought his young son here. Recently, with the update of the Celestial Being List, the Town North King became a focal point, leaping from ninth to seventh on the list.

His credible achievements amazed everyone, making the Northern Barbarians hang their heads.

By right, the Town North King should have little interaction with True Martial Mountain. Their only meeting was during the last Demon Sect Celestial Being’s attack on True Martial Mountain.

The Town North King chuckled: "True Man, no need for formalities."

His demeanor was very amiable.

Beside him, Li Ling respectfully saluted Taoist Longshan: "Li Ling pays respect to the True Man. I have come to visit the True Man, and I apologize for any intrusion."

Seeing this scene, the Town North King shook his head with a smile.

His young son was always respectful and polite to others but was very mischievous with him.

Taoist Longshan smiled as he welcomed the two inside.

Before he could speak, the Town North King was quick to state his purpose: "I have come this time merely to allow Ling’Er to admire the grandeur of True Man Tianjian, nothing more."

He spoke frankly, though very authoritative; he was actually quite easygoing, lacking the sense of being aloof and remote.

Taoist Longshan suddenly understood.

He had also speculated before.

Now it was confirmed.

He knew what the Town North King referred to: the matter of the Thunder Blade Sovereign and True Man Tianjian was abuzz everywhere, and it seemed the Town North King was convinced the Thunder Blade Sovereign would surely come, so he brought his son.

However, thinking about it, it likely was Li Ling pleadingly asking. Otherwise, with the Town North King’s strength, he wouldn’t be so interested in a battle between the two tail-end people on the Celestial Being List and travel such a long way to Qing State to watch.

If it were a showdown between Blade Demon and Sun Chasing Sword King, that would make more sense.

To this one request, Taoist Longshan naturally would not refuse. Although the Town North King acted to save his son before, he indirectly also saved True Martial Mountain. He was clear about gratitude and grudges and was grateful to the Town North King. "Town North King, you’re too polite, you both are welcome to stay at True Martial Mountain, though this matter isn’t concluded yet, and I also don’t know whether Senior Tianjian is on the mountain."

Taoist Longshan just smiled bitterly.

Even though he was grateful for Town North King’s help, he couldn’t casually reveal everything about himself.
