Chapter 710: One Foot in the Door

Translator: _Tat_  Editor: Rundi

The Qing Ming House was located 1,000 miles away from the City of Sin. It was considered to be a small House.

However, the capability of this House was anything but weak. For all forces within thousands of miles, they were one of the strongest. Though they had no original leveled cultivators within the House, there was as many as 20 completion leveled powerhouses.

There were also four powerhouses who were at the peak of the completion level.

Therefore, the Qing Ming House could be known as one of the most powerful forces within miles.

Using their dominating capabilities, the Qing Ming House got used to doing whatever they wanted whenever they wanted. Especially in recent years, they had been behaving extremely arrogantly. Even their lowly guards walked around with their noses turned to the sky.

This triggered all of the surrounding forces to complain and whine, but they didn’t dare to say too much out loud.

After all, leaving aside the terrifyingly capable Mo Jing Lei, Qing Ming House’s capability remained horrifying!

Despite the rude ways the House behaved, very little people dared to go against them. Thus, the people from the Qing Ming House lived very happily and easily. They basically all lived like wealthy kings.

In recent days, however, the House encountered a problem.

That problem was Ling Xian.

First of all, the Qing Ming House sent five completion leveled powerhouses to invade the City of Sin. Then, they sent an elder from the peak of the completion level. But all of these people’s spiritual light, upon departure, had dimmed.

In other words, they have all died.

This pained the hearts of the upper management and made them feel unsettled. Very soon after, the Qing Ming House’s Supreme Headmaster sent their strongest cultivator, Mo Jing Lei. The result, however, ended in his spiritual light dimming.

After this incident, the upper management could no longer keep their calm. They all reconvened in the meeting hall and began a discussion regarding this event.

“I think the Qing Ming House should work together and attack together!” A very old and proper elder opened his lips to speak.

A middle-aged man followed right behind. “That’s right. The City of Sin has killed six of our powerhouses and killed Elder Mo. We have to avenge them!”

“Our elders shouldn’t have had to bleed for nothing. Plus, we have learned much secrets about the City of Sin, so we must conquer it.”

An elderly woman looked furious with her vile gaze.

She had a good relationship with Mo Jing Lei and was rumored to be extremely close to him. When she learned his spiritual light had dimmed, she immediately fell into a state of deliria. If the Supreme Headmaster hadn’t stopped her, she would’ve made her way to the City of Sin.

“Yeah, though I am not too sure what the secret of the city is, even thinking with my toes, I know that the secret is no joke.”

“That is what I meant as well. We have to avenge the elders and we have to conquer the City of Sin.”

The elders all chimed in, but at the end of the day, they all meant the same thing.

Fight.

Perhaps they were too used to being arrogant, or perhaps they were too dizzy from hatred, or perhaps the temptation from the City of Sin was far too huge. Therefore, they all ignored a terrifying fact.

The strongest member of their House, Mo Jing Lei, had died. How could they be Ling Xian’s opponent?

Sadly, the majority of the elders didn’t think that far. They were so used to being arrogant and bullying others, they never considered the possibility of them being taken advantage of.

Any time anyone angers them, they only think of one solution, which is to fight.

They automatically ignore who’s at fault, or maybe, they never even considered, for a second, that they could be at fault.

What a joke!

Is it our fault to take advantage of you? It is your honor to be recognized by us!

That was basically the thought process of every management inside the Qing Ming House. They were arrogant to the extreme!

“You are all correct. But we cannot ignore one fact.”

The Qing Ming House’s Supreme Headmaster spoke lowly in a low voice, “Elder Mo had died. Even with his capabilities, he had died. It is obvious that the City of Sin must have some kind of intense secret.”

At that, the entire team silenced. Very quickly, however, they started a new round of shouting.

“So what? You and I are of the completion level, and there are 12 other completion leveled powerhouses. isn’t that enough to suppress the City of Sin?”

“That’s right. There are so many of us. What’s there to be afraid of?”

“There is a saying that it’s hard to defeat four people with two hands. There are so many us. We will definitely be able to avenge Elder Mo. Though we might not be able to completely destroy the enemy, we can at least hurt them.”

“I think so as well. When the time comes, we can all make a move together, and use all the techniques we know!”

The 10 something elders all chimed in, their voices were full of confidence.

“You are all right, but I still feel very unsettled.” The Supreme Headmaster looked doubtful and was hesitating.

Hearing this, everyone spoke again in a hurry to get him to send orders.

“What’s there to be uncertain about? The 14 of us together can easily defeat a small House. One City of Sin is nothing to be worried about.”

“We cannot let our elders die for nothing. After all, the secret of the City of Sin is no joke. We have to get the city under our control.”

“That’s right. Even for that secret alone, we have to attack.”

Hearing everyone’s persuasion, especially about the secret of the City of Sin, the Supreme Headmaster’s eyes flashed with greed.

Even though he wasn’t sure what secret concerned the City of Sin, based on the Qing Ming House’s record, it was no ordinary secret.

This made him waver. After thinking about their overall capability, he immediately made up his mind.

“Alright, then it’s decided. Tomorrow morning we will go to the City of Sin.”

The Supreme Headmaster smiled and the unsettled feeling in his heart disappeared. What replaced it was a heavy sense of confidence.

Hearing this, the elders all revealed smiles and praised this decision. They then expressed how little they thought of the City of Sin.

It was as if they could stop Ling Xian with one finger.

One has to admit that this group of people was far too arrogant. Not only did they provoke Ling Xian continuously, but they were also now thinking of visiting again to cause trouble. Their lack of reason was extremely disgusting.

Dammit!

“Just wait patiently. By tomorrow morning, we will be able to wipe out the City of Sin.” The Supreme Headmaster’s eyes shone with coldness and greed.

Just as everyone else and himself decided that they could stop the City of Sin, a giant foot stepped from above. Similar to a beast’s paw, it shook up the entire Qing Ming House.

The aggressive vigor dragged everyone into a state of fear.

Even the Supreme Headmaster and the Elders fell into a state of shock. They were terrified and were trembling.

…

After about half an hour of flying, Ling Xian was finally above the Qing Ming House.

Against their continuous provocation and their troublesome ways, Ling Xian had nothing much to say to the Qing Ming House.

Whether it was the House’s aggressive actions or their targeted bullying, Ling Xian was now completely furious. After all, the reason for his arrival today was because he wanted to defeat the House.

This was why he didn’t announce his arrival and he did not send a guard to pass down the message that he was there. Instead, he attacked right away and arrived with an extremely arrogant attitude.

He now had one foot in their door!
