Inside the Pavilion of Cicadas, Ling Xian stood with his hands behind his back. His Qi swallowed everything and shook the nine heavens.
Everyone's heart was pounding. They exchanged glances and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.
Without the leader of the Pavilion of Cicada and the elder's death, they had no other choice but to yield.
Thus, everyone expressed their willingness to trade their secrets for their lives.
"Very well."
Ling Xian grinned. These nine people were not important to him. He could choose to kill them or not. To be able to obtain nine secrets for free was without a doubt a good thing.
He pointed at the green-robed man in front of him and said, "You first."
"Yes." The man in green sighed and formed a hand seal to block everyone's hearing and souls.
Then, he shifted his gaze to Ling Xian and said, "There is a traitor in the Valley of Weapons. He has a high position and few people know about this. Can you buy my life?"
"Sure." Ling Xian smiled. He was going to the Valley of Weapons to steal treasures. He needed someone who understood the Valley of Weapons. A powerful traitor was without a doubt, the best candidate.
"He is the third elder of the Valley of Weapons. His cultivation level is at the intermediate stage of the ninth level. His skills with crafts are at the pinnacle of the grandmaster level. He is trusted by the leader of the Valley of Weapons." The man in green sighed in relief, knowing that his life was safe.
"Very well, you can go now."
Ling Xian's smile deepened. A powerful traitor could provide him with many benefits. A traitor who was trusted by the leader of the Valley of Weapons could provide him with even more help.
"Thank you." The man in green stopped worrying and stopped the technique.
Seeing this, everyone stepped forward and told them the secrets of the Ghost's Domain.
Without exception, they were all very important. If news of this got out, it would shock the entire Ghost's Domain.
"Very well, your lives are safe."
Ling Xian grinned. Not only did he achieve his goal, but he also learned nine important secrets. Naturally, he was satisfied.
"As long as you are satisfied."
The nine people bitterly smiled. The nine secrets were all priceless. They wouldn't sell them even for a hundred million spiritual stones.
But now, they were giving them to Ling Xian for free to save their lives. Not only did this make their hearts ache, it also made them feel ashamed.
"The more secrets you know, the faster you die."
"The Cicada Pavilion knows too many secrets of the Ghost Domain, yet it is still standing. It seems that the Pavilion Master is not a simple person."
Ling Xian's gaze was deep. He knew that the Pavilion Leader must be extremely capable. Or else she wouldn't have been able to protect the Pavilion.
"Pavilion Master is naturally not a simple figure. He is a peak existence in the Supreme Being Realm, second only to those who approach the dao." A black-clothed male spoke, his voice revealing resentment.
Everyone else's expression changed. They were terrified that if they angered Ling Xian, he would kill them all.
"Are you threatening me?"
"A peak Utmost Exalted-level existence is indeed capable of killing me. However, he's not here right now."
Ling Xian faintly smiled. He had offended far too many forces. The Ten Thousand Holy House, the Seven Saints Pavilion, the Bai Clan … which one of them wasn't a giant?
Compared to these three transcendental forces, the Cicada Pavilion was nothing.
"Young master, please calm down. He didn't mean it. Please be magnanimous and don't lower yourself to his level." The green-robed man smiled bitterly and glared at the black-robed man.
The others also glared angrily at the man in black.
They hated Ling Xian as well, but nobody dared to show it.
Since the Pavilion Leader wasn't here, Ling Xian could kill them as easily as flipping his palm. Showing hatred was no different than seeking death.
Everyone chimed in to comfort Ling Xian and to make the man in black apologize.
"I …"
Seeing how everyone was glaring at him, the man in black realized that he was being rude.
Ling Xian was someone who defeated the elder and destroyed the incomplete Honorable Weapon. Was he someone he could provoke?
The man in black swallowed down his humiliation and said, "I spoke out of turn. Please forgive me."
Hearing this, Ling Xian glared at the man in black. He felt too lazy to argue with him.
He shifted his gaze towards the black shield and formed a hand seal. Heavenly light engulfed the shield.
Immediately, the cracks faded. After three breaths, the black shield returned to its original state.
Everyone was shocked at this. They didn't think Ling Xian would repair the black shield so easily.
"This trip was worth it. Not only did I achieve my goal, but I also acquired the shape of a Honorable Weapon." Ling Xian grinned. If he could break the shield, then he could repair it.
Though the shield was of the lower realm and he could easily make it, to most spiritual beings, it was a treasure they yearn for.
"My goal has been achieved. It's time to leave." Ling Xian grinned and stepped out of the Pavilion.
"This malefic star is finally gone." The green-robed man let out a long sigh. His back was drenched in sweat.
"We have lost too much. I wonder how the ruler will punish us when he returns." An elder shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"It wasn't our fault. That person was far too powerful. If we didn't give in, the Pavilion would've been in ruins."
The man in green sighed, "Plus, it wasn't our fault. The ruler will forgive us."
"No matter who he is, he is dead for provoking the Pavilion." The man in black snickered. Thinking about how he was forced to apologize to Ling Xian, his anger boiled.
"Talking about this now is pointless. Let's talk about this when the ruler returns." The man in green sighed and left.
…..
The sky was dark and no sunlight could be seen.
On the ocean, Ling Xian rode the wind and landed before the man in grey.
"Very good. You did not leave without permission."
Hearing this, the man in grey smiled, "You told me to wait for you. Why would I leave without permission?"
"Do you know where the Valley of the Hidden Weapons is?" Ling Xian asked.
"The famous Valley of the Hidden Weapons. Of course I know." The man in grey smiled, "You want to go there?"
"That's right. There is a Third Elder in the Valley of the Hidden Weapons. How much do you know about him?" Ling Xian's eyes were dark. The man in green was standing against him, so of course he could not believe everything he said.
"I only know that he is extraordinary and his skills with crafts are shocking. I don't know much else."
The man in grey smiled awkwardly, "After all, I am just a nobody. How could I have gotten in touch with the Third Elder?"
Hearing this, Ling Xian frowned. After a moment of silence, he decided to go to the Valley of the Hidden Weapons to test the Third Elder.
The man in green's words could not be trusted, but the fact that the Third Elder was a traitor should not be false.
Plus, Ling Xian had promised the Wheel of the Six Paths of Reincarnation. No matter what, he had to go to the Valley of the Hidden Weapons.
He flapped around his sleeve and a miraculous medicine appeared. It swirled with heavenly light and emitted a sweet fragrance.
"Take me to the Valley of the Hidden Weapons and this medicine is yours."
Hearing this, the man in grey was a little startled and then ecstatic.
To him, a miraculous medicine was extremely precious. Naturally, he was ecstatic.
"Thank you." The man in grey smiled, feeling lucky that he didn't leave. Or else he wouldn't be able to get his hands on this miraculous medicine.
"Lead the way. As long as you listen to me, you will be rewarded," Ling Xian said softly.
"Please follow me." The man in grey was excited. He finally understood that Ling Xian did not care about the miraculous medicine at all. On top of that, he was a powerhouse with unfathomable abilities.
To be able to stay by his side was without a doubt, an honor.
Therefore, he flew towards the Valley of the Hidden Weapons.
Ling Xian followed.
