Chapter 482: A Toast from a Heaven’s Favorite

Translator:?_Tat_??Editor:?Fish_Creek

The Valley of the Falling Moon was located at the center of Yunzhou and was squeezed in between tall mountains.

The reason why it’s called the “Falling Moon”, it’s because at night, the moonlight very clearly reflect off the stream.

This place, normally, was not at all known and was merely a scenic location. However, three hundred years ago, after the Imperishable Temple appeared, this place was sealed by the 10 dynasties and the nine Houses to stop anyone from entering.

Currently, the Sun was at the midpoint in the sky, shedding down unlimited golden light that complimented the stream.

After a long journey, all the Heaven’s Favorites converged here and discussed the matters regarding the Imperishable Temple.

Everyone here gave off an intense Qi as they stood there like mountains. Some of them stood out in terms of strength. They appeared profound and impossible to read.

Other than these Heaven’s Favorites, some other kinds of beings who don’t like to show their faces were present as well.

These beings were in all kinds of shapes and sizes. Some were thick and giant ancient trees, others were in the shape of strange plants – there were many many different kind of beings that had no name.

Despite their bizarre appearances, they were all terrifyingly strong. They stood there like they were the rulers of the world and could suppress all.

Out of them, a golden roc with gold wings were scary to the extreme. It stood alone on the ground with a cold glare. Its aura alone stopped other beings from edging closer.

What could they do? The rocs are a kind that was extremely terrifying. Since the history of time, it has behaved like an overlord. Legend has it that during birth, it already has more prowess than all other beings. Once they grow into adulthood, they can snatch the star, steal the moon, and tear the sky apart!

The one before everyone’s eyes was not a purebred, but was still extremely terrifying. In the entire Valley of the Falling Moon, only a few could fight it.

Such as the mighty stone man. It, too, like the roc, was standing by itself and nobody dared to stand closer than 10 meters from it.

Other than the stone kind, there were a few other powerful kinds. Each and every one of them were glaring at everyone as if they were better.

In comparison, the humankind is very weak. Other than two men, who’s Qi equalled the stone man’s, there was nobody else.

One of them was rather handsome. He held onto a black wine gourd and wore an oversized green robe. His aura was approachable.

This was the strongest inheritor of the House of Void, the talented Sun Ze Hao!

The other wore all white and had a handsome face. His entire vibe was similar to an ice cave, too cold for anyone to come near.

This was the strongest inheritor of the House of the Undead, Xia Ling Mu. It was the other violent character known to be on the same level as Sun Ze Nan. There was a rumor that this person is very profound and never actually used his full potential against anyone.

These two were the commonly known powerhouses. Though they were of the intermediate stage of the completion level, they could defeat those above them and thus had impressive records!

It was because of these two’s presence, no battle has started. If they weren’t here to stop the other kinds from attacking, a war would’ve broke out.

“A bunch of trash.”

The golden roc suddenly spoke and glanced at the humankind, “After the Imperishable Temple activates, I will wipe you all out.”

Hearing this, the humankind frowned but did not speak. Because they knew very well that they had no right to talk back to this roc.

“Don’t be arrogant now, aren’t you afraid that I will braise you?” Sun Ze Hao raised an eyebrow.

“Braise me?”

The roc’s expression darkened and it began to emit light bright like the Sun, “You sure do not know how high the sky is. So what you are in the undefeatable realm? Compared to the roc kind, you are nothing. Killing you is easy!”

“Haha, you are merely a mixed bird, yet you behave so conceitedly?” Sun Ze Hao laughed. He drank from his gourd with his head up.

“Good, very good. Growing up, this is the first time someone called me a mixed bird.”

The golden roc’s eyes were cold as the light it emitted intensified and engulfed the entire place.

Seeing this, the humankind started to defend.

Sun Ze Hao and Xia Ling Mu frowned, too afraid to be reckless.

After all, despite the fact that the roc here is not a pureblood, its capability was extremely terrifying. If it’s angered, very few people can stop it.

Just as everyone and the croc were threatening each other, a bright laughter came from afar and poured hot oil over the croc’s anger.

“It’s not wrong to call you a mixed bird.”

At this voice, every kind, humans and others, were all surprised and shifted their gaze towards the source of the voice.

A young man in white slowly walked by rhythmically. Every single step he took shook the earth.

Because his temperament was far too unique and far too dazzling, every living being at the scene were attracted to him. Wang Yang and Lin Ying, who were standing right behind him were completely ignored.

“Damn you!”

The roc was infuriated as killer’s intent poured out of it. As the strongest of its generation, its capabilities were incomparably strong, who dared to disrespect it?

Yet Ling Xian had said it. How could it not be angry?

However, after it realized Ling Xian’s real capability, its gaze froze and it didn’t attack.

At the same time, the other powerful living beings also felt his energy and peered at Ling Xian. There were looks of shock.

“Interesting. Another powerhouse is here.” The stone kind’s Heaven’s Favorite was very interested and looked at Ling Xian intriguingly. It wanted to make a move.

Sun Ze Hao frowned and suddenly remembered something, “Are you possibly… the Ling Xian who killed the Third Prince?”

“Good eyes, my friend. That was me.” Ling Xian smiled and admitted.

After two months of travelling all day and night, they finally arrived. The moment they landed, he heard the roc’s arrogant statement. Thus, he mocked in hope of pouring water over his cockiness.

“Haha, great! It really is you.”

Sun Ze Hao bellowed and praised, “Ling Xian, I admire the brave ones the most. You are without a doubt, the bravest person I know.”

“You are flattering me.” Ling Xian beamed. His white robe softly fluttered in the wind like a real immortal.

“Haha, you dared to kill the Third Prince in his own palace and escape under the thumb of the emperor!” Sun Ze Hao continued to laugh, “Ling Xian, someone like you deserve a toast from me!”

Then, his right hand made a move. The wine gourd in his hand suddenly dashed towards Ling Xian.

The amount of power that accompanied the throw caused many Heaven’s Favorites’ expression to change. However, what really shocked them was Sun Ze Hao’s action!

To know that him and Xia Ling Mu were considered the most talented out of the Yunzhou. In the entire Yunzhou, not a lot of people get a toast from him. In the younger generation, nobody has received such treatment.

Yet here he was, toasting Ling Xian. This indicated his approval. How could everyone not be shocked? In the next second, they were even more shocked.

Because, against the extremely powerful throw, Ling Xian merely slid his right hand up to catch it as if the throw had no weight.

Then, he drank from it crazily. Instantly, his organs felt like they were being burned. He couldn’t help but to laugh, “Such strong alcohol! It sure is aromatic though.”

“Haha, men should drink strong alcohol. Only the sissies drink weak alcohol.”

Seeing that Ling Xian didn’t hesitate to drink the alcohol, Sun Ze Hao’s eyes glowed with admiration. “Ling Xian, you might not know what my rules are. But, to me, whoever drinks my alcohol becomes my brother. I wonder, if you are willing to be my brother?”

“Interesting.”

Ling Xian’s lips curled. He has only heard stories about Sun Ze Hao and knew that he is into drinking and weighs ties and friendships very heavily. However, very few people is deemed useful to him. Thus, whomever he offers alcohol to, represents that he respects that person.

“I received respect.”

Ling Xian chuckled and liked this man even more. He held onto this gourd and laughed out loud, “If that’s the case then please, drink another sip to formalize our brotherhood!”

Then, the gourd, like a shooting star, flew through the sky in a thunderous manner towards Sun Ze Hao.

This person, in the beginning, was testing Ling Xian’s capabilities by throwing it at him with so much prowess. Therefore, Ling Xian had to test him out as well.

Not anyone can be Ling Xian’s brother!

“Haha, good throw!”

Feeling the power, Sun Ze Hao’s hands moved and formed a gravitational circle that fought against the strength of the throw.

However, the moment his hand grabbed onto the gourd, he slightly frowned and his arm tingled from the catch. He silently chuckled. Ling Xian’s power was beyond his initial estimation.

However, on the outside, he expressed no such surprise. He immediately drank from the gourd, “Haha! Alright!”

Seeing this, Ling Xian smiled, “So, we are now brothers?”

“Haha, between us generation, there is no need for ceremonies. As long as we both want it and agree upon it, we are brothres!” Sun Ze Hao laughed. Against the handsome young man, he said, “I am older than you. So let me be the senior brother.”

“That won’t do.”

Ling Xian teased, “How about this. Let us have a small competition using this mixed bird. Let’s see who will win against it in the shortest amount of time. The winner gets to be the senior brother. How about it?”

“Haha, I like this suggestion!” Sun Ze Hao laughed and shifted his gaze towards the gold roc.

At the same time, Ling Xian’s gape geared in the direction.

Instantly, the atmosphere fell heavy.
