Chapter 590 Chapter 589: Mourning 1 (1/3)
Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
The Thunderfire Pill Realm.
A funeral was about to be held.
“Ling Danzi, I never thought that after you and I fought for hundreds of years, in the end it would be me presiding over your funeral.”
“You always looked down on me.”
“You compared yourself to Heaven’s Chosen, disdaining to associate with the likes of us.”
“But in the end, your heart was higher than the heavens while your life was thinner than paper.”
“Ultimately, it still fell to me to eat at your funeral feast.”
“Truly, the affairs of the world are hard to predict.”
In the Mourning Hall, Ancestor Blaze dismissed the disciples who had arranged the hall, then, still uneasy, personally inspected the arrangements once more.
Gazing at Ling Danzi’s portrait hung in the Mourning Hall, he suddenly heaved a sigh of emotion.
He and Ling Danzi had fought over power and profit for hundreds of years.
He had thought that since Ling Danzi broke through to Nascent Soul ahead of him, thereafter he would be like a dragon returning to the sea, a tiger leaping into the mountains.
Perhaps when they met again after many years.
He would still have to respectfully call Ling Danzi Senior Venerable.
But who could have imagined.
After Ling Danzi broke through to Nascent Soul that year and traveled far with his beauties, he truly never returned.
All at once, he had reached the end.
Ancestor Blaze sighed. Past events flickered before his eyes. After a flood of emotion, he finally left the Mourning Hall.
A moment later, he arrived at the Council Hall.
The other Tower Lords of the Thunderfire Pill Realm were already waiting.
The group first discussed the various procedures for Ling Danzi’s funeral.
Then the topic unconsciously drifted to Ling Danzi’s Master, Daoist Yuan, and Lin Qi.
“The Venerable handles myriad affairs daily, busy with all matters.”
“Moreover, he must divide his attention to investigate Ling Danzi’s fall.”
“I fear he will have no leisure to attend this funeral we took it upon ourselves to hold.”
Someone spoke in a low voice, holding no expectation that Daoist Yuan would attend the funeral they had arranged for Ling Danzi.
“One must always prepare for the worst.”
“If by any chance the Venerable does come, we must at least have a reception procedure prepared in advance.”
Someone knocked on the table. The others nodded one after another.
So they discussed the matter of receiving Daoist Yuan.
Then they brought up Lin Qi.
“The True Person and Ling Danzi had long since turned hostility into friendship, and could be considered on good terms.”
“Moreover, there is the Venerable’s connection.”
“The True Person is quite likely to come attend this funeral.”
“If the True Person comes, how should we receive him? Fellow Daoists, please discuss quickly and produce a plan as soon as possible.”
“We cannot afford any further slights.”
……
The group discussed the various reception procedures should Lin Qi come to mourn Ling Danzi.
For a time, the discussion grew heated and spirited.
