Chapter 2025 - 2026: Sound Amplifier

"Whether it's the Blood Oath Sect, the Cultivators Alliance, or people like Sha Qianqiu, they're all too powerful. I don't want to get you involved."

Sun Wei said, "If you consider us as brothers, don't say things like that. We may not be very strong, but we can help you. You do have an ally."

Ling Zhenfei sighed and said, "I'm speaking from the heart. There's no need for you to risk yourselves for me."

Zhang Zhenlin said, "We can't be separated; we must stay together."

Ling Zhenfei knew that Sun Wei and Zhang Zhenlin were very loyal, treating Ling Zhenfei as their brother.

However, Ling Zhenfei also knew that sometimes, you couldn't be too loyal, or it would only bring harm to everyone.

Ling Zhenfei didn't continue discussing this topic.

He closed his eyes to enjoy the soft warmth of the sunlight; spring sunlight was the most comfortable.

From the direction of the Gate of the Foreign Realm came a knocking sound, accompanied by Northern Spiritual Energy that reached everyone's mind.

Everyone was very familiar with this sound, as its impact frequently came along with the Spiritual Energy, and many had already grown accustomed to it.

Ling Zhenfei and the others were no different. They didn't say much, merely glancing towards the direction of the mountain.

Sun Wei said, "What do you think is behind this mountain gate that makes such a sound?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Who knows? Maybe someone lightly bumped into it, and the Foreign Land Gate acts like an amplifier, creating this sound."

Zhang Zhenlin said, "Maybe there's a giant standing between heaven and earth, wielding a mighty hammer, striking the Foreign Land Gate."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That's possible too, as long as this Foreign Land Space doesn't collapse. We'll find out once we get there."

The group lay there continuing to enjoy the sunlight when suddenly someone came down from the mountain.

When this person stopped beside them, Ling Zhenfei and the others naturally noticed and looked over.

This person was dressed in the robes of the Tianling Spirit Palace, clearly a disciple from there.

The person glanced at Ling Zhenfei and the others, then asked, "Is anyone from the Wuliang Palace coming or not?"

The tone of this person wasn't particularly polite, carrying an air of superiority.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Of course, someone will come. It's not yet time for the Foreign Land Space to open, so coming now doesn't serve any purpose."

The person snorted, "You're really nonchalant. If they're not coming, then they're not coming. No need for you to attend the meeting tonight."

Ling Zhenfei stood up with a smile, "What you said, the people of Wuliang Mountain haven't all arrived, but that doesn't mean no one is here. If there's a meeting tonight, we'll definitely attend."

The person said, "Then let your representative attend the meeting in the main hall tonight." After saying this, the person turned and left.

Sun Wei sighed and said, "See, this is reality. Just because the people from Wuliang Mountain didn't show up, even a small fry looks down on us."

Ling Zhenfei glanced at Murong Liuqing. She obviously heard this too but didn't move, quickly falling back into cultivation.

Ling Zhenfei knew that Murong Liuqing was under the most pressure right now, with everything weighing on her shoulders.

It's truly unfair because it's not her responsibility.

It's all just because she arrived a bit earlier.

By evening, Murong Liuqing stood up, clearly intending to attend the evening gathering.

Ling Zhenfei said, "I'll go with you."

Murong Liuqing shook her head and said, "No need, I'll go by myself."

After saying this, Murong Liuqing headed up the mountain.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Miss Murong is under a lot of pressure right now, we must be mindful of what we say."

Sun Wei laughed and said, "Oh, are you feeling protective? Do you have a crush on Miss Murong or something?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm just stating the facts."

Sun Wei laughed and said, "What facts? Heroes like beauties, there's nothing to say about it. Murong Liuqing certainly fits the description of a beauty."

Ling Zhenfei said, "According to you, everyone has a love for beauty, so do you have feelings for Murong Liuqing too?"

Sun Wei chuckled, "I must be crazy to like such a woman. There are so many women in the world; I just sit there and they flock to me. Why would I bother with Murong Liuqing?"

Ling Zhenfei knew Sun Wei spoke the truth. Coming from a wealthy family, Sun Wei had strength too. Such a person would undoubtedly be popular with many girls.

In fact, Ling Zhenfei was much the same, with many girls pursuing him. For some, it seemed impossible, even unbelievable, for such a thing to happen.

But if you had some money and drove a sports car around, or even parked it on the street,

fashionably dressed girls would come up to greet you. It was entirely normal.

Many women, for the sake of earning money, would even work in nightclubs in certain professions. Seeing someone with a luxury car and approaching them was indeed normal.

So Sun Wei's words didn't surprise Ling Zhenfei at all.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Sometimes, roses with thorns have a sweeter fragrance."

Su Wei chuckled, "I don't know if roses with thorns are fragrant, but they're definitely prickly. My hands are too tender for roses with thorns."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Alright then, do you know why some roses don't have thorns?"

Sun Wei and Zhang Zhenlin asked curiously, "Why?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Because the thorns have been removed or worn down by many hands."

Sun Wei scoffed, "I've figured you out; you're really bad."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Am I wrong? Haven't you heard that the harder something is to obtain, the better it is?"

Sun Wei waved his hand, "Enough, if you like thorny ones, they're all yours. I prefer the kind without a single thorn, all soft."

Ling Zhenfei and Zhang Zhenlin both laughed.

The sky darkened, the distant sky filled with a fiery sunset, vivid and bright.

Many people liked this feeling, watching the sunset glow.

But Ling Zhenfei didn't really like it; it gave him a sense of desolation, as if approaching twilight.

After the sun set, darkness fell, and Xianling Mountain was dotted with starlight.

A large portion of the cultivators lived in seclusion in places like caves, so once the sun set, they began their cultivation that lasted into the next day.

But today was different, today was special.
