Chapter 428 - Forgotten

"The leader of Sacred Mountain peak society, Grandmaster Xie Hui Rong has arrived!" one of the Elder announce the leader arrival with a loud voice. Immediately everyone rises from their seat and kneels on the floor simultaneously.

"Greetings Grandmaster Xie!" everyone cupped their fist and speak in tunes.

A few seconds later a man with golden robes and bright blue color enter the room, the man is in his late fifty but he has no grey hair and his body is straight and sturdy like thirty years old man. His dark hair is pulled into a top knot and cover with gold guan, his appearance very much like an emperor. he even has the golden chair carved with a Dragon to commemorated his status.

Zhao Li Xin watching him with a sneer, the sacred Mountain peak seems not hiding their ambition to rule the world above the emperor, such a bold and impudent gesture, he wonders if the outsiders knew about this.

Xie Hui Rong flicks his robe as he take a seat on his golden chair, he stroked his beard with satisfied smiles.

"Congratulation Grandmaster for becoming the first sovereign in the continent!" one of the elders sing his praise.

"Our leader talent is incomparable, it's been more than a hundred years since the last sovereign immerged finally our society have sovereign cultivator among us, we have nothing to fear!" another praise didn't want to lose to lick his leader boot.

Meanwhile, Lory and Girsha look each other in confusion, they don't know why the all so excited and why they thought that the old man is the first sovereign.

[I don't know….uhm, sage I thing but I don't know what stage he knows?" Lory didn't pay too much attention to Hei Shen member's cultivation, she just like a mother who didn't care her children grade at school as long they're working hard.

Girsha also didn't pay attention because the leveling in cultivation is more complicated than his old world, in Lory's world, the gifted people divide their level in much more simple way, there was Low magic or basic magic, medium level magic, advance magic, high-level magic and that's it.

Lory always said that people in her old world is lack of dept when they're naming something unlike people in this world who is more profound.

[Why nobody know Zhao Li Xin is a sovereign too] Lory feel upset because people didn't acknowledge her lover's hard work.

[I don't know, maybe because he never announces it or confirms it….] girsha also feel puzzled. The truth is some people know about this but because Zhao Li Xin never confirms it and he rarely appears in front of other people so some people still thought is just a baseless rumor.

[Li Xin should make announcement like this guy!] Lory is annoyed when she saw Xie Hui Rong complacent face.

[You want Zhao Li Xin held a party like this?] Girsha looking at her with doubt.

Lory nods her head firmly [Well, yeah!] Hei Shen is rich, they can afford it.

[You want to put your grumpy guy to host a party, really?] Girsha raised his none existed eyebrow [Do you realizes your guy is not the light of the party kinda a guy, what kinda party he would hold…Haloween party?] Girsha quipped. 

Other than with Lory Zhao Li Xin always look at other people with a scowl, he looks other people as if they had killed his family, with intimidating aura and empty gaze, no one would know what he is thinking about, it's a nerve-wracking situation. Even though he is undeniable handsome like an immortal send from heaven but when he smiles, it feel so eerie like something bad is going to happen. 

Suddenly something damn on Girsha as he flaps his wing excitedly [Hey, maybe that's why Hei Shen Sect never held a party!] That's true since they lived with Zhao Li Xin they never heard Hei Shen make celebration, party or small gathering. Every palace doing their own business and send their report weakly unless something very important happens, they also rarely recruit new members.

Only now Lory realizes how different Hei Shen Sect is compared to other sect but then she clicks her tongue [Shut up, my husband is a good man, he can hold whatever party, he is fun, warm and charming, everyone would love to be close with him!] Lory spoke convincingly, as a wife she must support her husband

Girsha scoffed [You sure we talking about the same guy…?]

[…..]

'Hachoo!' 

Zhao Li Xin rubbed his nose, why his nose suddenly become itchy? Hump, it's must be because the dust. While Zhao Li Xin snorts the people in front of him looking back at him in disdain. They thought Zhao Li Xin has no manner, how could someone sneeze in time like this, fortunately, his sneeze is not loud if not he would disturb the celebration. People are wrong Zhao Li Xin is not someone who didn't know about the manner, he knows it but choose to ignore it.

Suddenly Zhao Li Xin feel someone is watching him as he lifts his head a woman across from him sitting on the corner, she wear light green hanfu, she styles her hair with simple half hair bun and adorns it with silver flower 'Buyao'1, although she looks slightly paled but it's not ruined her beauty only adding frail and delicate feeling on her appearance.

Mo Ning Yuan faintly smile at Zhao Li Xin, she already knows from her subordinate that Zhao Li Xin is highly regarded by nan Yu qi after he brought shadow tiger for her, Mo Ning Yuan can't help to be jealous, why Zhao Li Xin given the beast to Mo Ning yuan why not giving it to her. his jealousy is rose and her curiosity peaked she want to know why she unable to seduce him.

Zhao Li Xin saw Mo Ning Yuan alluring gaze but Zhao Li Xin didn't feel anything so he averts his gaze casually as if he saw nothing. 

Treated like air Mo Ning Yuan was dumbfounded, she gritted her teeth exasperatedly. this is the first time she has never been ignored before by the opposite gender even after her family lost her glory, many men still want to make her as their wife although they can make her as an official wife because her family reputation but many men want to take her as their concubine and they dare to give a hefty dowry for her, of course, she was refused. She will never let men controlling her life again.

Mo Ning Yuan has learned to honed her beauty to lure men and make them do what she wants, every man is the same whether they were old or young, poor or richer they're all the same, as long you can feed their ego and control their lower part there's nothing they wouldn't do for you but Lu Xin is different.

He never shows any interest with her as if he sees through her like she was nothing in his eyes, the way he looks at her make her heart shuddered but at the same time he entices her. she feel like a snow mountain she need to conquer and one day she would, she believes she would able to melted Lu Xin's heart she just has to know what make him ticked.

Zhao Li Xin didn't care what Mo Ning Yuan thinking, he got his own problem, he needs to find the crimson lightning sword immediately before something happens to Lory, one way or another he would enter the forbidden library with or without permission, worst come to worst he would fight the whole sacred Mountain peak Society heads on.

Meanwhile, Xie Hui Rong is gloating from praised and envy from his people, finally, he becomes the Sovereign master he believes no one would dare to provoke him anymore not even that man 'Long Ming'!

For years he had heard about Long Ming achievement. Hei Shen Sect has ruled the world secretly and no men dare to challenge him that also including himself, but of course, he never voices his thought out loud.

Long Ming is much younger than him and he has accomplished more than he ever did at Zhao Li Xin age, of course, Xie Hui Rong feel threatened and defeated by Long ming reputation and so four years ago he decide to do closed-door training to increased his cultivation, he nit spare any pills and elixir to hasten his cultivation and finally after a long struggle he becomes the first sovereign, how could he not feel exhilarated.

His eyes scanned everyone sits below him but then he realizes someone is missing "Where is Xie Xiu Wei?"

The room suddenly becomes quiet and the guest looks at each other anxiously because Xie Hui Rong just got out of the closed-door training he didn't know what had happened to Xie Xiu Wei, his favorite Son.

A brave elder takes a step forward as he kneels on the cold floor and cupped his fist courteously "Grandmaster, second Master Xie was…he was killed by Long Ming" he said with deep remorse.

The smiles on Xie Hui Rong wipe off and his face turns dark, he hit the armchair loudly "WHAT!"

His strong Qi spread uncontrollably, everyone shiver in fear as their body becomes heavy like a boulder hit their c.h.e.s.t, the weaker guest cough with fresh blood, some people become unconscious and falling to the floor or their table. Mo Ning yuan who is hiding her high cultivation is pretended to be faint on her table, meanwhile, Nan Yu Qi is protected by Xie Hua Ling Qi so she remains conscious.

"That damn Long ming dare to kill my son!" Xie Hu Rong roar in anger.

Meantime Zhao Li Xin who pretends affected by Xie Hui Rong Qi is kneeling on the floor with his head down, he furrows his eyebrows with uncertainty 'Did I killed him?" he questions himself. A certain Lord having a hard time to remember whoever men he had killed before. It looks like hairpin Zan, but with pendants or fringes, which would swing when someone wearing it and walking. Bu Yao, the Step Shake, was named because of it.
