THE LING TIAN LEGEND
episode 190

Thea Smoky Tower! It is a famous nightlife spot in Sky Bearing City. At this moment, he could finally show off his brilliance and grandeur, a place where thousands of gold coins were scattered every day. This is where beautiful women with makeup and suave and dignified men come in, all revealing their individual styles. The screams made drowned out all the surrounding sounds! Smoky Thea Tower at night is the original Smoky Thea Tower!

At the entrance of Thea Smoky Tower, a slightly fat old man wore a humble smile on his face as he leaned over to greet every guest entering and exiting the complex. His words were friendly and polite, and he seemed to know everyone who had appeared, like a traveler who had gone far away. While his words seemed too flattering, it made the hearts of anyone who heard him feel very comfortable.

For those who knew his true identity, no one would believe that an elder from the ShangGuan noble family, a famous expert, would be a, would actually serve as a butler for a wine pavilion like Smoky Thea Tower! While the title of ‘handler’ sounds good, in the end, it's just a better name for the pimping head of a brothel.

“Ah, hahah, Young Noble Tan, you have arrived. It has only been a few days since I saw you, but it seems that you have become more impressive and handsome ... This way please, don't worry, ever since you told me, Little Jade has not been touched by anyone else. The girl stares out the window every day, missing your presence!”

“Eh? Not Boss Lou? You are a rare visitor..remember those girls the last time you came? Every time you go, the girls have a little bit to eat for the next few days. This time, Boss Lou really needs to help me cheer them up later. Hahaha, don't worry, the dungeon pavilion has items that can help you have dragon energy and tiger ferocity… hehehe, see you later!”

“Yes, Third Master Yang, you are here, a private room has been prepared for you. Uh? Did ya? No wonder Third Master Yang has been looking friendly lately, this .. Your bearing, like a jade tree facing the wind, is natural and unrestrained!

“Aiya, Old Master Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time, your white hair seems to have reduced a lot, can you teach me how you do that? Oh, this handsome guy by your side, is he your grandson? What's?! Your kid? Yes God, I... I.. I really admire you..”.

In the midst of sending and receiving guests, if one stayed behind and paid more attention, they would find the action very obvious: Every time the crowd thinned out, the crowd was, the fat old man would use his hands to massage his face, most likely, his facial muscles were cramped from smiling while receiving all the guests.

Suddenly, the hands of the massaging butler froze, as did his eyes. His expression alternated between confusion, fear, respect. He was so stunned that he even ignored the few people who had greeted him as they walked past him.

This was the difference between an ordinary person and a martial artist: A martial artist was able to sense many things hidden from ordinary people.

Standing about ten feet from his eyes, a masked man dressed in all black stood there alone. Although he was standing there quietly, the senses of the butler actually could not detect the whereabouts of this man. If not for his own eyes confirming that fact, he would have thought that only the air was there. When he saw the man, his first thought was that this black-clothed man had fused with heaven and earth.

He immediately understood how frightening this man's skill was, even the breath of his life was completely drawn into his own body, not even letting the slightest leak out. The only reason why he could see her was because the black-clothed man allowed her to. As for the commoners, they would not find anything out of the ordinary. This is a fabled XianTian world!

He had already identified this man as the black-clothed man who had saved Xiao YanXue that night. Given his ruthless and ferocious movements, his terrifying strength that could deprive everyone of their lives there, the butler couldn't help but shudder, and prepare to approach and welcome him.

Yet the black-clothed man seemed to smile at him through his eyes, before disappearing in front of him. The butler only felt a gust of wind blowing past him. What are the movement skills? Can such a thing exist? The butler was startled, involuntarily raising his hand to wipe away the cold sweat. A light breeze blew, and he realized that his back was also filled with cold sweat.

Gu XiYan was lying in front of the dressing table, his emotional state fluctuating wildly. Thinking of how his family, from the imposing aristocrats, had fallen to such a state where they had to live their lives under the guise of another name. In his heart, he was fed up with this life where they had to lie down every day. However, the three elders seemed to be satisfied with the status quo. They seemed to have planned to die of old age, leaving him alone. At that moment, even with his overflowing hatred and aspirations, what could he do?

He sadly sighed, and as he listened to the fanfare of gambling outside, as well as the men's rude laughter, Gu XiYan suddenly felt extremely gloomy. Is this the kind of life he really wants?

A light breeze seemed to blow, and Gu XiYan stood up to close the window, looking as if he wanted to throw his worries outside. However, the moment he turned around, he jumped in shock, as there was a masked black-clothed man sitting on the chair that he was sitting on just a moment ago. A pair of mischievous eyes stared at him as he spoke, “Head of Pavilion Gu, how are you?”

“So the Senior who has graced us with your presence.” Even in shock, Gu XiYan recovered very quickly. Judging from senior cultivation, if he wanted to harm him, it would be an easy matter. Thinking up to here, he ignored the thought of calling for reinforcements and instead asked, “Does Senior have a request? We will bring them out to the best of our ability! ” Gu XiYan still remembers the sentence he said before he left that day, “Starting today, for three months, Smoky Tower Thea will heed my orders!”

In fact, in Gu XiYan's heart, he did not find his orders to be contrary, but rather regretted that it was only three months; it was too short! Given his strength, was he willing to secretly remain unknown for life? As long as he did not want to be ignored, then the ShangGuan Family would become famous along with him if they were under his wings! For someone who wants to revive his family's reputation, this is an incredible opportunity, and definitely better than his current lifestyle.

Ling Tian inwardly praised Gu XiYan for being calm and composed while handling matters and in addition, being able to see the bigger picture. However, she was confused as to how she kept calling him ‘senior’. Does he really look that old under his mask?

Moreover, his answer made him very satisfied. The meaning of looking at the bigger picture is — when someone knows that they cannot resist it, choosing to follow it to the end! That is what is meant by sensible action! For a noble lady who was sheltered to make this kind of decision in a split second, it only spoke of her talent and decisiveness. A heroine!

Contrary to what Ling Tian expected, Gu XiYan did not even try to bargain, instead agreeing without hesitation!

Since Gu XiYan had decided to follow him, if he did not show his strength, then how could Ling Tian want to continue to let him rely on him?

Before he left, Ling Tian stared intently at Gu XiYan, but all he saw was a deep gaze reflected back at him! Traces of smiles appeared in his eyes; this woman was indeed not simple! He did not turn around again, walked out of the window and disappeared into the shadows.

Gu XiYan suddenly felt as if a burden was lifted from his heart.

Ling Tian surged under the starry night, his body feeling extremely comfortable. Breaking through to the ninth stage gave him the feeling of being reborn! This kind of feeling gave Ling Tian the urge to let out a primal roar!

His body glided like a swallow, with every step he took on the ridge of the roof disappearing rapidly behind him. Looking at the blurred forest line by his side, Ling Tian felt happy and carefree!

Suddenly, he felt a warning in his senses; someone was following him! Ling Tian laughed coldly as he thought, I am looking for an opponent, and you sent yourself to my doorstep! In an instant, he made up his mind, turned his body to the side and hid behind a huge tree.

A white shadow shot out, stopping on the roof and looking around, as if shocked to see how he had suddenly lost his target.

“Who are you? Why are you following me?” Suddenly, an ice-cold voice sounded behind him!
