Chapter 719: Ma Linglong’s Capability
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
In the Heaven Realm World, the Fifth Manor at the Longevity Mountain was undoubtedly a very eccentric and mysterious influence.
Ma Tianchang had never made friends with others. However, 50 years ago, he had suddenly emerged. He not only supported Yan Yuntian to gain the imperial throne and also won a high position in Jin and controlled Yunzhou, which violated the limitations of the Golden Book of Fate. A person at the Venerable Realm interfered with the imperial affairs, which was not tolerable to the Divine Wind Palace.
However, the Divine Wind Palace, as well as other sects, did not comment and surprisingly let it go by. What did it say? It proved that Ma Tianchang was beyond the Golden Book of Fate’s control and was free of the Immortal-burying Pool. It meant that his Thunder Tribulation was the Void Thunder Tribulation.
Only those who had the experienced the Void Thunder Tribulation knew its awfulness. For this reason, plus Zhou Bao’s confusion about the Fifth Manor in the past, he had to pay attention to Ma Tianchang.
However, after Ma Tianchang’s resignation, he always stayed home. Did Yan Yuntian award him a large territory? Its area was three or four times bigger than the Wuyang Region. Originally, Yan Yuntian planned to rely on Ma Tianchang to develop his own territory and balance Zhou Bao in the northwest. Later, Ma Tianchang built up a great manor in his territory and brought his wife there. They always stayed in and ignored the affairs in their own territory. They handed over all the affairs to their housekeeper, an old man in his sixties. Therefore, his domain was not prosperous at all and did not see a good development. Despite of that, nobody belittled him and craved for his territory. Therefore, generally speaking, Ma Tianchang’s territory was at peace in the north. Certainly, Zhou Bao did not expect to make fortune there.
In Zhou Bao’s opinion, Ma Tianchang and the Fifth Manor were a big mystery. However, Zhou Bao was open-minded. Now that he could not find answers to the questions, he would not spend much time on it. Besides, the northern region did not have any influence on his Wuyang Region. Hence, he had never worried too much about it.
This time, the accidental appearance of Ma Linglong brought surprise and some ideas to him.
“Maybe I can take this opportunity to get close to Ma Tianchang and see whether the Immortal Zhen Yuan, an Ancestor of Earthly Immortals, is in his Fifth Manor?” He said to himself. Simultaneously, a strange thing happened. When he was thinking, Ma Linglong, who was picking up goods in the marketplace suddenly turned her head and glanced directly at Zhou Bao.
The distance between them was certainly not small. Zhou Bao could clearly see Ma Linglong only because of his special eyes. But it seemed that Ma Linglong also saw him and even smiled at him. Then, she continued shopping in the marketplace.
“That’s funny!” Zhou Bao was astonished, but then he quickly burst into laughter. Ma Linglong’s strength had been at the phase of Level Seven expert all the time. However, when she just turned around, Zhou Bao felt a strange wave which could not be emitted by a Level Seven expert. It was the Dharma power wave, a weird wave totally different from the Dharma power that he had felt through the telepathic connection. He had never felt such an eccentric Dharma power in places like the Infinite Star Sea, the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode, the Primordial Demon nor with the Innate Deity. However, today, Ma Linglong gave him that feeling.
Sensing the Dharma power wave, he was more interested in Ma Linglong’s appearance.
“Has she come to the Qinlingjun City for me? It’s unreasonable. I myself even didn’t expect I would be here. How can she know? Prophecy? Can she see through time?”Zhou Bao thought. “It’s not possible. I’m now the Fate Creator in the Azure Big World. Even an Earthly Immortal can’t predict a Fate Creator’s future. Not even a Celestial Immortal can know my future. She is just a little girl. How could she know?”Zhou Bao thought and touched his eyebrows, feeling a little pain there. Ma Linglong’s smile made him feel more strange. He was increasingly curious about the Fifth Manor.
Ma Linglong did not have so much consideration. She was just shopping around the marketplace at her pleasure. She unhesitatingly bought what she liked. Quickly, two servants helped her to carry the goods. For a while, one servant left helplessly. A moment later, he came back with a carriage. Obviously, he realized that the two of them could not carry so many things.
Ma Linglong hanged around in the marketplace from this side to the other and got satisfied after she had filled the carriage with many random goods. She raised her head with pleased eyes and caught a glimpse of Zhou Bao who was still in his original seat. Subsequently, she let the two servants bring her things to her abode. But she directly walked towards the restaurant where Zhou Bao was.
“You’re so patient! You’ve been waiting for three hours here. Why doesn’t the restaurant drive you away?”
In a moment, she met with Zhou Bao. Sitting down before him, she asked him teasingly.
“I have money. Even if I stay here till night, they won’t even try to kick me out. But you, Miss Ma, you’re strange!”
“Me? Why am I strange?” Ma Linglong laughed and let the waiter add a set of chopsticks and bowl. “I just came here for shopping. Can’t women shop in the street?”
“Miss Ma, I don’t want to argue with you, but I am guessing you didn’t come to Qinlingjun City only for shopping”
“Of course not. I’m here for you. But I haven’t bought anything for a long time, so I just shopped around!” Ma Linglong was a foursquare person and did not reveal her purpose. “Old guy let me come to you!”
“By Old Guy, do you mean Governor Ma?”
“He’s not the Governor any more! Now he’s just enjoying life at home!” Ma Linglong said with a laugh. “But a bad guy like him will live for thousands of years before he dies!”
“How did you know I was here?”
“I inherited my mother’s power. It’s not hard for me to find you!” Ma Linglong smiled. “15 minutes after you arrived, I already found out your position and immediately came here. It’s the fair day today, so, as you just saw—”
“You also have the ancient bloodline. Sorry, sorry!” Hearing it, Zhou Bao realized that many people who had the ancient bloodline in this world possessed inexplicable skills. Their skills were as useful as Zhou Bao’s Fiery Eyes.
“Sorry for what? My bloodline is not a match to yours. Your bloodline is Fiery Eyes and Heavenly Magic Eye. They’re excellent!”
Ma Linglong shook hands and replied with a casual air.
“Miss Ma knows so much!” Hearing that Ma Linglong spoke about his Fiery Eyes bloodline and Heavenly Magic Eye, Zhou Bao slightly squinted with coldness.
“Don’t frighten me. I won’t tell others your thing and I can’t do it. Our tribe has this feature. Even if we know your secrets, we just keep them in our own heart. We do never reveal them. Otherwise, our bloodline would lose effectiveness. It’s strange, hum?”
“Yes, It is.” Zhou Bao answered affirmatively. “Well, what’s your purpose this time?”
“I told you. Old guy let me come to you. But it’s not him wanting you. His teacher wanted to see you. Do you know the Fifth Manor at the Longevity Mountain?”
Sure. The Fifth Manor of Longevity Mountain was one of the super sects of Three Western Regions. However, I’ve never been there.”
“You’ve certainly never been there. Even if you arrived there, you wouldn’t be able to enter!” Ma Linglong laughed.
“Excuse me. I don’t have that ability so I can’t enter there!”
“It’s nothing. The Fifth Manor is different from the other places. One can’t enter it without permission. Even Fate Creation Boy can’t enter, let alone you!” Ma Linglong said. “Let’s get down to the important matter. Old guy asked for help from you because he’s entrusted by the Fifth Manor at the Longevity Mountain!”
“Help?” Zhou Bao fell into silence for a second and showed an eccentric face. “Why does anyone, whoever he is, want help from me? Do you really regard me as a capable person? I’m not that capable!”
“Don’t be so excited. You won’t do it for free!” Seeing Zhou Bao’s bitter face, Miss Ma was a little bit angry.
“I know you won’t let me do it for free. But I really can’t do it!” Zhou Bao waved hands and said, “Frankly speaking, I just messed up with a thing. Now I’m tired, so I don’t want to get into any trouble. Your Fifth Manor is too mysterious. I don’t want to be involved in it!”
“I know you’re now at the Human Immortal phase. But you’re annoyed because you can’t successfully form the Three Flowers above the Head. I promise. You will make it in a short time!”
“You seem to know everything!”
“Although we can’t tell others what we know, we’re good negotiators. We know everyone’s limits. So, if you want to negotiate with a difficult person, come to me. I’ll give you a 20% discount!”
