At the bottom of the Lake of the Resting Soul, Gong Suo Xin landed. Like a fairy, her beauty was out of this world.
Her eyes were rolling around and her lips were curled into a smile. She was truly alluring and captivating.
"You came."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "Now, I should call you Clan Leader Wang."
"No, my last name is still Gong."
Gong Suo Xin played with her bangs, "My last name is Gong for the rest of my life. I will humiliate the Wang Clan."
Hearing this, Ling Xian softly shook his head, "I bet those elders ended up badly."
"They were all sent to the lands the Wang Clan controls. Of course, they are all unprofitable lands. I don't want them to have anything to gain."
Gong Suo Xin's casual tone made Ling Xian speechless.
Remember that those people were all important figures in the Wang Clan. Normally, they were famous and had a lot of power. Yet now, they were sent to those lands. This was the same as throwing them into the Cold Palace.
Moreover, it was the kind of dark and desolate cold palace without any benefits. This punishment was extremely heavy.
"Though these people didn't participate in what happened back then, they all hit me when I was down. I think this punishment is too light. "Gong Suo Xin revealed a cold smile.
"I understand."
Ling Xian said softly. Though he wasn't sure what happened back then, he could feel Gong Suo Xin's hatred.
"I really have to thank you this time. If you didn't agree to help, even with third grandpa's support, I wouldn't be able to sit on the Clan Leader's seat."
Gong Suo Xin's eyes rolled around and she smiled, "How about I give myself to you? Or else I don't know how to repay your kindness."
"Forget it. Since I ran into you, why wouldn't I help?"
Ling Xian brandished his hand with a bitter smile, "You, on the other hand, need to be more careful in the future. That black-robed old man's faction definitely won't let this go. "
"I understand. Right now, he is probably hopping mad. Then, he is planning how to get rid of me without leaving a trace. "
Gong Suo Xin smiled brightly, "However, with third grandpa here, he won't dare to openly attack me. As for sneak attacks, I can only be careful. "
"Yeah, no matter what, your capabilities are …" Ling Xian bitterly smiled and didn't finish his sentence.
"Too weak?" Gong Suo Xin finished the sentence for Ling Xian.
"That's right. From the first time I saw you, you seemed to be at the Foundation Establishment Stage. Now that dozens of years have passed, you actually haven't grown at all. Even I find it somewhat inconceivable. "
Ling Xian shook his head with a smile. Logically speaking, with Gong Suo Xin's status as the Pavilion Leader of the House of Flowing Cloud, no matter how untalented she was, she should be able to reach the completion level with medicinal Dans.
Therefore, he was very confused.
"Are you confused? When I'm done, you'll understand. "
Gong Suo Xin looked like she was reminiscing, "The Wang Clan's bloodline is very outstanding. There are basically no mediocre people. As for me, I am an extremely outstanding existence. As soon as it was born, it caused a phenomenon in the world. "
"Heavenly phenomenon?"
Ling Xian was a little startled and became even more confused. Logically speaking, a person who was able to cause a phenomenon in heaven and earth at birth was definitely extremely talented. How could he remain at the Foundation Establishment stage?
"That's right."
Gong Suo Xin nodded, "The moment I was born, I caused a phenomenon in heaven and earth. I was seen as the Wang Clan's hope to continue its glory. I didn't disappoint. When I was 12, I reached the Foundation Establishment level. I didn't consume any spiritual Dans and I reached the Undefeatable Realm of the meditational level. "
"That year, the elder in black attacked my father. At that time, third grandpa was traveling the world and wasn't in the clan. Therefore, he easily killed my father and allowed his son to ascend to the Clan Leader's position. "
"As for me, under the protection of a few loyal subordinates, I escaped from the Wang Clan. However, I was cursed by something that forced me to stay at that level for the rest of my life. No matter how much I trained, no matter how many medicinal Dans I consumed, there was no effect. "
"This is why when you first saw me, I was of the Foundation Establishment level. Today, I am still of the Foundation Establishment level. It's not that I am not talented, it's that I am cursed and can only stay at the Foundation Establishment level. "
Gong Suo Xin narrated everything that happened in the past. Her face was very calm, as if she wasn't talking about herself, but someone else.
However, deep inside her eyes, there was a bone-deep hatred.
"Curse?"
Ling Xian frowned. All curses are terrifying and difficult to deal with. Once someone is infected by it, unless a specific method is found, there is no way to get rid of it.
Therefore, he found it very troublesome.
"That's right. It's a curse called the Lock of Eternity."
Gong Suo Xin smiled brightly. Seeing Ling Xian's worried expression, she comforted, "Don't worry. This curse can be lifted by the Wang Clan's treasure. Of course, it can only lift half of it. "
"Half?"
Ling Xian frowned, "How much exactly?"
"It can probably help me jump straight to the original level. After all, I have been training all these years and my body has accumulated a lot of energy."
Gong Suo Xin softly grinned, "As for my natural talent, I can probably recover half of it."
"Half of his talent and a cultivation of the Original Infant Stage is enough."
Ling Xian softly nodded, "As for the Lock of Eternity, I will remember it and find a way to get rid of it for you."
"You don't have to worry about that. You've helped me enough."
Gong Suo Xin played with her bangs and smiled, "If I ask you to help me again, I am afraid I will have to marry you to repay you."
Hearing this, Ling Xian bitterly shook his head and didn't say anything. However, he remembered the words "Lock of Eternity" in his heart.
"Let's move on from this topic for now. To have an ending like this has already exceeded my expectations. I should be satisfied."
Gong Suo Xin softly grinned, "Now, let's talk about the Lake of the Resting Soul."
"You really do remember what happened back then." Ling Xian's heart warmed.
Gong Suo Xin rolled her eyes at Ling Xian, "Of course I remember. Back then, when you asked me about the Lake of the Resting Soul, I knew you had a big appetite and you weren't satisfied with a few drops of Water of the Resting Soul."
"I really do need a Lake of the Resting Soul. A few drops of Water of the Resting Soul are useless to me."
Ling Xian bitterly chuckled. It wasn't that he had a big appetite, it was that a few drops of Water of the Resting Soul were useless to the immortals inside the Painting of the Nine Immortals.
Only the Lake of the Resting Soul could act as the pillar of the five elements and form an endless magnetic field for the soul.
"I understand."
Gong Suo Xin's smile disappeared, "But, don't even think about the entire Lake of the Resting Soul. It is the lifeblood of the Wang Clan. Even though I control the entire clan, I cannot give it to you. "
"I understand. If you do that, your third grandpa will be the first to disagree."
Ling Xian nodded. The Lake of the Resting Soul was one of the foundations of the Wang Clan. They cannot give it to an outsider. Even though Gong Suo Xin was now extremely powerful, she cannot ignore the opinion of the entire clan.
Therefore, as much as he understood, he was a little disappointed.
However, just as he was feeling disappointed, Gong Suo Xin revealed a rare playful smile and said something that startled him.
"I cannot give you the entire Lake of the Resting Soul. But, if you kiss me, I can give you half."
