Special hobbies?
Lu Rang’s odd question immediately made Qing Lan and Xia Yao blush.
“We do not!”
Xia Yao spoke, disdain visible in her beautiful eyes.
Lu Rang said in surprise, “Uh… what I actually wanted to ask was whether you two have considered coming to our village… whether to raise pigs, cook, do miscellaneous work or anything at all…”
“No!”
Xia Yao spoke again, no longer believing him.
“Never mind then, I originally wanted to offer you two a great opportunity, but forget it if you’re not interested.”
Lu Rang did not insist.
“We’re approaching the Burial Immortal Mountain Range.”Dugu Yuqing spoke gravely.
We had already arrived.
Avast mountain range stretched out over the land, but now it bore countless cracks, giving it an extremely terrifying appearance.
Streams of horrific deathly aura and the mixed-in sacred golden light were seeping out of those cracks.
There were people up ahead blocking the way!
“Who goes there?”
The one setting up the barricade was an Almost Immortal, who coldly said, “No one from the younger generation’s elite may enter!”
“Difeng Realm, from the Profound Maiden Sect, Qing Lan and Xia Yao!”
Qing Lan spoke lightly.
Upon hearing this, the Almost Immortal furrowed his brow and said, “Profound Maiden Sect? Why are you coming alone? Shouldn’t you be arriving with the Yu Kong Flying Ship from the Duanmu Family?”
—Indeed, the major powers had joined forces to seal off the Burial Immortal Mountain Range!
There was a grand opportunity within, so naturally, they would not allow other ordinary people to come in and compete for it.
“You needn’t ask about that, should you?”
Qing Lan remained nonchalant, flashing the Profound Maiden Sect’s token.
“And these two?”
The Almost Immortal asked, looking towards Lu Rang and the others.
Lu Rang’s wit flashed, and he immediately said, “We’re also from the Profound Maiden Sect, all of us are together.”
The Almost Immortal angrily said, “Do you take me for a fool? The Profound Maiden Sect only has female disciples!”
” I see you two as nothing more than wandering vagrants, get lost!”
Utter contempt.
“These two are our attendants.”
At this moment, Qing Lan suddenly spoke.
She had already seen the extraordinary nature of the two, so she wanted to keep them by her side, as they might be of great use later on.
Upon hearing that, the Almost Immortal’s brow furrowed even more, but he still let them pass.
After they passed, the Almost Immortal muttered quietly, “It’s said that the women of the Profound Maiden Sect are pure as ice and clean as jade, but it seems they’re not so proper after all…”
Upon entering the Burial Immortal Mountain Range, youngsters from various states could be seen everywhere.
All of them were outstanding.
Moving forward, it wasn’t long before they arrived at an open area thick with malevolent aura.
It was crowded here as if it were a sea of people.
“Earth Element Alliance!”
The Earth Element Alliance— a group of young people, striking figures surrounded a youth in blue clothing.
The aura of the youth in blue was exceedingly powerful, and he seemed to be on the verge of achieving Immortality.
“Earth Spirit Alliance!”
The Earth Spirit Alliance, too, had a group of distinguished youths.
In comparison, the cultivators of the Xuanzi Alliance seemed a bit weaker, their foundation was naturally not as strong as that of the Earth Character Realm.
The alliances were distinctly divided.
“Saintess Qing Lan, Miss Xia Yao!”
At that moment, a youth walked over from the Earth Wind Alliance with a beaming smile, saying, “You’ve finally arrived. By the way, where is Brother Duanmu?”
This person was NingTianhao’s direct grandson, Ning Zhaoran!
“We’re here!”
Behind them, a voice spoke up. It was Duanmu Yang and a group of others who had also hurried over.
“Brother Duanmu, how could you let both Saintesses get lost? That was very wrong of you.”
The youth smiled faintly.
Duanmu Yang’s face darkened as he said, “Brother Zhaoran may not be aware, some trifling characters deceived the two Saintesses, causing misunderstandings between me and them!”
He looked at Lu Rang and Dugu Yuqing with malice.
At once, Ning Zhaoran’s gaze fell upon Lu Rang and Dugu Yuqing.
“May I ask who you two are?”
He inquired.
Lu Rang casually said, “Oh, we’re just folks from the village, haven’t seen much of the world.”
Ning Zhaoran’s face immediately turned cold as he said, “You two are not from our Earth Wind Alliance, so why are you causing discord?”
“Sowing discord? You should first ask him what wonderful things he has done to the two ladies!”
Dugu Yuqing said indifferently.
“Nonsense, slandering and spouting venomous accusations!”
Duanmu Yang immediately roared with anger, “I invited the two Saintesses to partake in our Duanmu Family’s Qi Ming Tea, but these two falsely accused me, claiming that I harbored malicious intentions against the Saintesses and poisoned them…”
At these words, the surrounding people all looked over.
Ning Zhaoran’s expression turned even colder as he said to Lu Rang and his companion, “If I remember correctly, the major alliances have already sealed off this area, and those who don’t belong are not allowed inside. Please leave immediately!”
“Guards!”
He shouted coldly.
Suddenly, two old men appeared as if out of thin air.
They were powerful, both being Old Immortals!
The others also turned their gazes upon this scene.
“What? Someone sneaked in?”
“Heh, offended Brother Duanmu and still dares to mingle here under false pretenses, truly despicable!”
“Get out!”
Everyone looked on with disdain.
Seeing this, Lu Rang’s eyes also grew colder as he said,
“If I remember correctly, this is Huangtian State, not the territory of your several major alliances. What now, you don’t wish to abide by Xuan Tianzhou’s edicts and want to cause bloodshed and chaos?”
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the few Old Immortals present changed.
The edicts of Xuan Tianzhou were well known in the Heavenly Realm.
Who would dare to disrespect them?
One of the Old Immortals immediately stepped forward, saying, “We are not disregarding the edicts of the Lord of the Heavenly Realm, but ordinary ants coming here will only add to the chaos!”
“Without the recommendation of the major alliances or a Sect Gate at the Profound Immortal Level, you may wish to join the competition, but you must reach the Unity Supreme Cultivation Level!”
“If you two can achieve that, we naturally won’t intervene!”
Ning Zhaoran sneered and said, “Two country bumpkins from some mountain village, at the Body Integration Realm? Just by looking at the two of you, it’s clear you haven’t even reached the Golden Core Realm, so get out quickly— ”
But before he could finish, Lu Rang suddenly stepped forward and appeared directly in front of him!
Slap!
A crisp sound of a slap rang out!
Ning Zhaoran was sent flying!
“Alt—”
He landed dozens of meters away, spitting out blood!
In an instant, everyone present was shocked.
“What’s going on? Someone dared to lay hands on Ning Zhaoran?!”
“Ning Zhaoran is considered the number one prodigy within the alliance… It’s said he has already broken through to the Immortal Realm… yet, this person managed to send him flying with just a slap?”
“Has he gone mad…”
Everyone was astonished beyond belief.
All eyes in the venue turned towards Lu Rang!
Lu Rang said coldly, “Giving you face, huh? Think I’m a sick cat when I don’t show my might as a tiger?”
“This is the so-called genius? Daring to strut around like a peacock here?”
The crowd’s expressions became complicated, as the man in front of them seemed unremarkable and oddly dressed, almost like a farmer, yet he possessed such a terrifying strength.
The two Old Immortals were also greatly alarmed and said, “Please, hold your hand!”
They had already sensed that this young man’s cultivation level… had actually surpassed that of an Immortal!
That’s why Ning Zhaoran was… utterly powerless!
“You’re clearly not among the younger generation; why then are you here?”
Another Old Immortal spoke solemnly!
He was sure that Lu Rang, who appeared young, was definitely one of those old monsters in disguise!
—Long before today, members of the Four Great Alliances, including Profound Immortals and Heavenly Immortals, had come to probe, but they found that anyone over the age of forty who sat on that white bone chair would be directly annihilated!
Several Heavenly Immortals met their end that way.
Conversely, the young were unharmed.
Thus, the old monsters of the major powers completely gave up the idea of seizing the opportunity and left the battlefield to the younger generation.
Even if some old monsters were present, it was only to maintain order.
And throughout the Four Great Alliances, there wasn’t a single person below the age of forty who had broken through the Immortal Realm!
Hence, they concluded that this young man before them must be one of those old monsters!
The rest, hearing this, also came to a realization.
“Oh! So he’s an old monster.”
“I knew it, Ning Zhaoran is the direct grandson of the Alliance Hierarch of the Earth Wind Alliance, with few rivals in cultivation, how could some backwoodsman easily send him flying…”
“Hehe, bullying the young while being an old monster, truly shameless!”
Everyone was looking down with contempt.
Lu Rang, upon hearing this, was also momentarily stunned.
Old, old monster?
He was being called an old monster at his young age?
His expression became rather odd!
