Chapter 18: Killing the Flower Picking Thief Jiang!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Hahaha, Brother Hao, I heard that you found the Heavenly Treasure Mirror in a cave; I’m really impressed.”

“Eh… the Heavenly Treasure Mirror is nothing. If Fairy Lin wants it, I am willing to give it to Fairy Lin for her to do makeup!”

“As expected of Brother Hao, the big senior brother of the Totally Limitless1 Sect, generous and powerful!”

“It’s a pity that Fairy Lin was slighted by Jiang Lin… I wonder if Fairy Lin’s dao heart will be affected by this grand tournament, and if she will participate.”

“Hmph, don’t mention that flower-picking thief! As long as that flower-picking thief dares to come, I, Zhao Hao, will make sure to give him a taste of Totally Limitless Sect’s ultimate technique, Totally Limitless Finger!”

“May I ask if it’s Senior Brother Ye, Liangchen Ye, of the Non-Pearl Willow Sect?”

“It is I, I am!”

The man named Ye Liangchen snapped the fan open, the rush of wind blowing up his bangs again.


“Greetings Senior Brother Ye, we are from Black Tortoise City Daily. I heard that this is your first time participating in the grand sect tournament. May I ask if you are confident in passing the test of the Mysterious Trails Mystic Realm?”

“Hahaha, what a joke! I, Ye Liangchen, am afraid of no one! I am invincible! Invincible is me!”

“As expected of you, Senior Brother Ye, you are quite assertive. However, it is said that a woman knocked you down with one punch. Is this true? Can you tell us the details?”

“…”

“Fairy Luo, I heard that your sect, the Fallen Flower Sect, is all-female, and just this morning, the Dragon Gate Sect’s Lin Fairy was tragically slighted by the traitor Jiang Lin. Are you worried—”

“I’m not worried,” the woman whose full name was Luo Caiye said indifferently. “If that flower-picking thief named Jiang Lin dares to lay his hands on my sisters… We’ll make sure he goes out crawling!”

“Where is that flower-picking thief named Jiang Lin? He didn’t come?”

“That guy dares to come! I will avenge Fairy Lin! Guard this righteous path!”

“No! Let me do it! Such a man will only plague more maidens by remaining in the world! I will scatter his ashes!”

“This fellow daoist, you seem to have a lot of resentment towards that flower-picking thief Jiang Lin.”

“Damn! Suffice it to say that it is more than a lot! I haven’t even spoken to Fairy Lin, yet he… Ah… I’m furious!”

“Kill the flower-picking thief Jiang!”

“Yes! Everyone should kill him!”

“Kill Jiang Lin!”

“Kill Jiang Lin!”

The 10,000 or so young cultivators who were above the Immortal Abode Tier, participated in the grand sect tournament for the first time, and arrived at Black Tortoise City in time were allocated to several venues to participate in the qualification tests. In comparison, Black Tortoise City Square was filled with nearly 10,000 cultivators.

There was a lot of discussion in the large square, which had all kinds of flattering towards each other, and comparing with each other, such as the tiers and which fairy they had seen before.

Of course, the biggest topic of conversation was still the fact that Jiang Lin had harassed fairy Lin Qingwan of the Dragon Gate Sect in public, and whether Jiang Lin, the flower-picking thief, would blend in with the wild cultivators in the mountains and swamps to attend the Mysterious Trails Mystic Realm or not.

Inadvertently, they all said they wanted to kill Jiang Lin, the flower thief, and even gradually shouted about it. Wave after wave of cries, first a small group of people shouted, and then it was a field of chants.

Some people didn’t know what was going on, but the people around them were shouting, and it seemed out of place not to shout along, so they followed suit, and eventually, nearly the entire square did.

Some female cultivators, who were close with each other but from different sects, chatting in whispers, were startled.

And when these people shouted for a while, someone suddenly said, “The Dragon Gate Sect has arrived.”

All of a sudden, the entire square fell silent at once.

Pausing in the sky, the Dragon Gate Sect cultivators arrived on their swords, and landed in the middle of the large square, led by a slender woman in a long gauze dress who didn’t land but hovered in the air.

The woman hovering over the sword had long hair reaching her waist, her skirt a thin layer of flowing silky veil as clear as mist. A golden belt was tied around her waist, and she appeared noble and graceful like an orchid.

In front of her neck quietly lay a golden jade, adding a graceful and elegant air. A pair of silver butterfly earrings hung by her ears, a silver hairpin was used to tie up her black hair coiled into a delicate willow leaf and magnolia. To top it off, she appeared extremely clean, beautiful, and elegant.

“Ah… my eyes…”

Many of the cultivators secretly raised their heads to look up her skirt, and as a result, they didn’t see anything, but were hurt by sword qi getting into their eyes.

“Everyone, I am Lin Qingwan of the Dragon Gate Sect. I am afraid that word about me has spread all over the city. I don’t want to say anything more. I thank you all for your kindness, but Jiang Lin is my— the disciple of the Dragon Gate Sect! Only I can do it! Therefore, I hope that everyone does not interfere with the matters within my sect, and I also ask you to spread the word.”

The girl’s sweet voice was spread throughout the entire Black Tortoise City Square by way of spirit power.

After finishing her sentence, the girl floated down to the ground, accompanied by the leading teacher of the Dragon Gate Sect.

“Fairy Lin, I heard that your sect’s traitor Jiang Lin, has taken your innocence. Is this really true?”

As soon as Lin Qingwan landed, the Black Tortoise City NC Media, Black Tortoise City Penguin Watch, Old Wave News1, and other departments approached her.


Black Tortoise City was famous for news and information. The daily newspapers of Wutong Province and various rankings came from Black Tortoise City, so it could be said that Black Tortoise City was the headquarters for the news sects of Wutong Province.

Listening to the reporter’s question, Lin Qingwan, whose pretty face was slightly red, was about to answer, but as a result, the female elder of the Nascent Soul Tier who was leading the team pulled the Ling Qingwan behind her, cleared her throat, and sternly said, “Rumors! It’s all rumors! It’s true that the traitor Jiang Lin didn’t die and did appear at the inn where Dragon Gate Sect was staying, but Lin Qingwan is innocent! Who created the rumors?! I’ll smash his brain wide open!”

“Eh? Is that really the case? But Senior, I heard that Jiang Lin cross-dressed and slept in the same bed as Senior Sister Lin. This matter…”

“It’s also a rumor. Qingwan had been staying with me last night, so how could she have been taken advantage of by Jiang Lin?”

“Senior, we at NC Media are most concerned with truthfulness. Someone at the inn saw Jiang Lin kiss Fairy Lin with his own eyes!”

“Ridiculous! When Qingwan was fighting with that traitor, she let her guard down, thinking of how he used to be in the same sect, and was attacked secretly, accidentally letting the traitor touch her face with his arm, but it was only for a moment. The rumors in the city of hugging and kissing furiously are complete nonsense!”

“Senior…”

“Senior…”

The various news departments of Black Tortoise City attacked frantically, asking multiple questions, determined to dig out some juicy information. Still, this young-looking but hundreds of years old woman had too tight of a mouth, simply not letting anything out. Furthermore, the Dragon Gate Sect female elder leading this time said every word with spirit power to spread her words throughout the square. Afterward, there would be no way to make up too much about this; after all, 10,000 people were here listening.

Finally, an Immortal Abode Tier cultivator from the Penguin Watch couldn’t hold back any longer, and directly asked, “Senior, I heard that Fairy Lin was hurt by love, and her dao heart was damaged due to her love, so her cultivation dropped by two tiers! Is this true?”
