The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 988 - 541: Shameless, All of You

Her gaze swept across the three people behind the old woman, and she continued, "This, they didn’t tell you, right? The story must have been embellished by these three people."

The Bitter Old Woman turned to look, and sure enough, the three lowered their heads, not daring to et her eyes. She snorted coldly, turned to Ning Xiaoxian, and forcibly said, "Even so, your brother killing soone is a fact. As his elder in the sect, I must seek justice for it. I can spare your brother’s life, but at least I must take his two hands. This is my greatest concession. Otherwise, you won’t be going anywhere today!"

Huangfuming is only thirteen, and his cultivation is far from reaching the realm where he can regrow limbs by himself. Not to ntion, the Mirror Sea King would never allow his only son to have his hands cut off, and Ning Xiaoxian didn’t want to see him hurt right under her nose. She instead put on a smile: "Bitter Old Woman, don’t be overbearing by virtue of your age. What’s the difference between taking a person’s arms and killing him? The dead cannot be resurrected, I can adequately compensate your sect for its losses, but leaving his hands behind is absolutely impossible. This is also my greatest concession, or else I’d like to see who present can hold the two of us here."

She raised her black eyebrows and sat slightly upright on the back of the Defect Beast, instantly releasing a sharp and fierce aura!

She also knew that in this matter, she and Huangfuming were in the wrong. But if reasoning worked everywhere in this world, what would be the point of cultivating such Divine Skills? She’s always been accustod to being alone, with few friends. Now that Changtian is in seclusion, and her subordinates like Qi Zai and Qingluan naturally cannot get too close, and her other sworn brother Ning Yu is far away. Now she’s just recognized a brother in Huangfuming, and imdiately soone bullies him? This is practically triggering her hidden protective attribute.

If she were alone here, she wouldn’t mind confronting the Cultivators at the Void Refining Stage. But now there’s Huangfuming beside her, this boy’s cultivation level is the lowest of all those present, and if a fight breaks out, an oversight could very well get him hurt. Hence, she is also inclined to resolve this matter peacefully.

In the eyes of the Bitter Old Woman, the aura around this woman was sowhat chaotic, making it impossible for her to accurately determine her realm. However, Ning Xiaoxian did this intentionally; the vast and continuous aura imdiately filled the area within dozens of feet, alarming even her. But not taking down these two little fellows in front of her, how could she explain to the three juniors behind her?

Ning Xiaoxian observed her expression, knew she was already wavering, and added, "Bitter Old Woman, did you co to Duling City to celebrate the birthday of the Old Grand Dowager at the King Jinghai Mansion?"

The Bitter Old Woman was taken aback and said, "That’s right!"

This was much easier. Ning Xiaoxian sighed in relief and pointed at Huangfuming: "Do you know who he is? He is precisely the only son of the Mirror Sea King, Huangfuming. You have traveled all the way to celebrate the Old Grand Dowager’s birthday, yet you want to kill her own grandson or take away his hands?" After all, at the upcoming birthday celebration, they would et Huangfuming, so revealing the truth now might actually avoid a fight.

The four people before them froze together and exclaid in unison, "What?!"

They actually got into a conflict with the Mirror Sea King’s only son at the food stall on the dock? The odds of this happening are absurdly small!

The female cultivator suddenly shrilled, "Who are you fooling? You said that the Mirror Sea King has only one son, yet this little ghost calls you sister! Then tell , since when did the Mirror Sea King have a daughter?"

Ning Xiaoxian’s lip twitched. She just wanted to provide both sides with a way out, but who knew soone could be this tactless? Fine.

Huangfuming impatiently said: "Sister, what’s the point of saying more to them." He flicked his hand and revealed a token. The token’s texture was peculiar, looking like a piece of black wood, with a roaring giant beast carved on it, and a single "Mirror" character in the center.

The appearance of this token was quite unimpressive. The people before them didn’t quite believe it, and the Cultivator who was almost poisoned to death earlier almost burst out laughing said: "Just this crappy wooden token, and you claim it’s the King Jinghai Mansion’s token? Do you think we haven’t seen the Jinghai Token?"

At this, even Ning Xiaoxian was sowhat speechless. There are four types of tokens in the King Jinghai Mansion. The lower three are made of gold, silver, and copper tals, but only the Jinghai Token held by the core mbers of the Huangfu family is this unimpressive-looking "crappy wooden token." It is made from East Sea Thunderstruck Wood, and while it doesn’t look great, it contains the power of Heavenly Thunder within, and can even be used as a powerful Magic Artifact.

However, there are indeed not many people who have seen the Thunderstruck Wood Token with their own eyes, and among these four, they have probably only seen the other types of tokens. Huangfuming mockingly said: "Sister, you’re kind-hearted, wanting to spare their lives, but they’re eager to be on their way. Why don’t we fulfill the wishes of these bumpkins?"
