To the people of Shi Ao Island, the name Ling Xian was not unfamiliar. In fact, they were very familiar with it.
He defeated the Demonic Fairy, suppressed Master Lin, brewed the perfect Foundational Dan, fought against two completion levelled cultivators, and retreated safely. Each and every one of these events was enough to shock the entire 36 islands!
Therefore, how could the people of Shi Ao Island not be familiar with Ling Xian?
To put it bluntly, in the entire 36 islands, there was basically no cultivator who didn't know of Ling Xian. Everyone could list out all the deeds he had done one by one.
However, when the news of Ling Xian slaughtering the two Houses spread, everyone's first reaction was disbelief.
Even though everyone knew that Ling Xian was strong enough to suppress the younger generation. But no matter what, they did not believe this news was real.
They were the two controlling forces of Shi Ao Island. After the House of Zi Yang was destroyed, the two controlling forces became the uncrowned kings. How could two such powerful forces be turned upside down by a single person?
What could they do? The powerfulness of the two controlling forces had been deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts. Even though Ling Xian had done many shocking things, nobody believed this.
However, as more and more people talked about this news, everyone began to accept this hard to believe reality.
Then, the entire Shi Ao Island fell into a state of shock like never before!
He single-handedly slaughtered the two controlling forces and easily defeated two completion levelled cultivators. How dominating was this?
One man and one sword had turned two great sects upside down, yet he was able to escape unscathed in the end. How calm was he?
To know that those were not small forces. They were two Houses that dominated the entire island. Powerhouses were as numerous as the clouds in the sky and all of them were extremely powerful. Nobody on the entire Shi Ao Island dared to challenge their authority!
Yet Ling Xian did what he did. Not only did this require courage, but he also needed the capability to leave so easily!
Without a doubt, he had both of these qualities.
Therefore, he did it. He became the first cultivator in the history of Shi Ao Island to turn two controlling forces upside down!
This was an achievement that will be recorded in the history books!
Therefore, the entire Shi Ao Island fell into a state of shock. On the streets, in the restaurants, in the restaurants, everyone was talking about this and the man who was shining brightly.
Even though what Ling Xian did before had shocked Shi Ao Island, and even the entire 36 islands, Ling Xian was not a match for Ling Xian. But it was obvious that this matter was more shocking than anything he had done before!
Two forces! That meant two completion leveled cultivators!
Yet Ling Xian went up to them and defeated them all by himself. How unbelievable was this?
What shocked everyone even more was that not only did Ling Xian escape unscathed, he left with ease. Moreover, after that, the two great forces seemed to have disappeared. They did not send out a single soldier, nor did they say anything!
What did this mean?
This meant that the two great forces had been beaten into submission and had completely lost their temper. Otherwise, with the domineering style of the two great forces, how could they swallow this insult?
Thinking of this, everyone was even more shocked.
Just how strong did he have to be to completely beat up the two great forces?!
At once, Ling Xian's limelight was unparalleled!
Just as everyone was talking about Ling Xian, he disappeared without a trace and never showed his face again.
Even though everyone on Shi Ao Island was trying their best to find him, they never heard any news of him, let alone seeing him in person.
This proved that saying.
The legend of Ling Xian was passed around in the martial world, but he was no longer in the martial world.
...
Half a month later, at the border of Shi Ao Island.
The Sun had just risen, shedding light onto the endless ocean, creating a faint golden hue.
The azure sea, the rising sun, and the luxurious ships along the coastline resonated with each other, forming a beautiful picture.
In front of the Sail Merchant Store, more than 10 cultivators dressed like boat workers were transporting goods to the most prosperous Trading Island.
For the Rising Sail Trading Firm, which was the wealthiest in the area, this was something that they had to do every month. It was no different from before.
But today, something unusual was about to happen.
Because a young man wearing a white robe suddenly showed up.
Of course, at a place as prosperous as the Sail Trading Company, countless people came and went every day. Even if the young man in white wasn't a thousand, there were at least 800.
However, if the Sail Trading Company found out about this person's identity, they would fall into a state of shock. Then, every single cultivator here would cry and beg to be his apprentice.
Without a doubt, this person was Ling Xian.
Ever since he flipped the Xuan Yin House upside down and took care of the last thing he needed to do, he came to the border of Shi Ao Island without stopping.
After asking around, he came to the Sail Trading Company. As for why he came here, the answer was simple.
If he wanted to go to the Trading Island, he had to take a boat. After all, the ocean was endless and the Trading Island was very far away. If he flew by himself, it would take him at least half a year to arrive. That would be asking for trouble.
The Sail Trading Company before him was the most powerful trading company here. Every month, there would be a ship heading to the Trading Island. This was why Ling Xian came here.
"It is no wonder this is the most powerful trading company here. It sure is grand." Ling Xian stared at the three story building and complimented it. Then, he marched in.
The moment he entered, a beautiful woman greeted him. She first complimented Ling Xian's temperament and then asked, "Hello, how can I help you?"
"I want to buy a ticket to the Trading Island." The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up, revealing a warm smile.
Instantly, the woman's eyes brightened. However, after hearing Ling Xian's words, she hesitated, "I am sorry, but today's tickets are all sold out."
"All sold out?" Ling Xian frowned and thought about it, "I have an emergency and I must leave today. Is there a way for me to get on the ship?"
"I cannot make that decision." The woman shook her head. Perhaps it was because Ling Xian's temperament was far too unique, she gritted her teeth, "How about this, you wait in the guest room. I will go find the manager and ask him to talk to you."
"Thank you." Ling Xian smiled warmly.
The woman's face turned red and she whispered, "It's okay. The guest room is on the second floor. I will go find the manager first."
After saying that, she walked towards the third floor with light steps.
Seeing this, Ling Xian marched forward and entered a guest room on the second floor.
Then, he slowly sat down on a red wooden chair and brewed himself a cup of Tea of Enlightenment. As he enjoyed the taste of the Petal of Enlightenment, he waited for the manager to arrive.
After a while, the door to the guest room was pushed open and a middle-aged man slowly walked in.
This person's face was honest and his body was chubby. He gave off the vibe of an honest man. However, inside his squinted eyes, there was cunning and unscrupulous light.
The moment he stepped into the guest room, his expression changed.
