108 Maidens of Destiny (Web Novel)

Xun Tian Daoist

Around them, the foliage was flourishing. The flora were as vibrant as royal embroideries. The mountain spring gave way to a shallow stream that cascades through the mountain. Within distance, a waterfall torrented downwards, exuding a fine layer of mist. The mountains and lakes gave off an incomparably quiet and peaceful ambience.

Even though Shu Jing had grown familiar with Liangshan Continent’s poetic scenery within the past month, this sight still compelled him to pause and observe for awhile.

“Young Master, are you going stupid just from the view?” Song Lu lightly teased.

Shu Jing shrugged.

As they walked along the small path, it wasn’t long until they encountered the sight of a large mountain, underneath of which stood four people deep in discussion.

As they neared the group, Shu Jing gradually began to make out their conversations.

“Motherfucker, what a waste of a trip. What kind of doggone Soul Technique can there be at that trash ruin?”

“I already warned you earlier not to buy into these things. This is something that appears only once every few hundred years. How could you be the one to solve it?”

“Damnit!”

Seeing Shu Jing’s group, the four people shared a look with each other and stopped talking. Shu Jing began evaluating all of them at once. Three men and a woman, with the lowest cultivation at Stardust Middle Stage. Among them, the Daoist monk holding the horsetail whisk seemed to have the greatest cultivation. He had most likely entered the peak of Stardust Late Stage.

The Daoist monk eyes’ brightened when he caught the sight of Lin Yingmei. The sentiment behind his gaze was an unpleasant one.

“Are you guys also here to explore?” Song Lu asked in a friendly manner.

Seeing that there was not even a trace of cultivation within Song Lu’s body, the monk only gave her a quick glance before his eyes focused on Lin Yingmei and Shu Jing.

“Friends, did you come here after hearing about the Mountain Lake legacy?”, the Daoist monk smiled and asked.

Friends?

Being called as such caught Shu Jing off guard. He laughed in reply, “We were just passing by, and conveniently decided to visit here.”

“To Stardust cultivators like us, these kinds of lesser legacies really are quite important. Unfortunately, I think you will also be disappointed.” The monk seemed regretful.

“Hearing that this Mountain Lake legacy had a 500 years long history, I’m not too hopeful either.” Shu Jing vaguely replied.

“Friend, that is a good attitude to have.” The monk stroked his beard and said.

Shu Jing also didn’t feel like wasting his breath on them. These three people were looking at Lin Yingmei with distasteful gazes; their hearts full of hatred and envy for Shu Jing.

Lin Yingmei’s expression remained ice cold. Even now, she hadn’t even spared them a single glance.

“I’ll go ahead to take a look.”

Shu Jing lightly traded a look with Lin Yingmei before walking forwards.

The three other cultivators briefly glanced at each other before parting ways and allowing him to pass through.

Shu Jing smiled at them, then took Song Lu and Lin Yingmei to head inside the mountain, seemingly heading for the entrance of the legacy.

Waiting until Shu Jing walked off into the distance, the three male cultivators then brought out their weapons; intending to head back inside the ruins of the legacy.
