Chapter 1189: A Ruthless Trap
The Fifth Star Ring was divided into east, west, south and north.
The north there was unlike the north in the Revered Ancient mainland. There was no snow in the northern planetary system. It was quite the opposite. Most locations there were very hot. Of course... when big events played out that got all the cultivators in the north talking, then it wasn’t just the weather that heated up.
In a small town not far from the Sword Immortal School, a local teahouse buzzed with conversation.
“This area has become one of the busiest locations imaginable recently.”
“The big sects, clans, and tribes have all sent direct bloodline elites and core disciples here.”
“The two Shining Stars from the Sword Immortal School achieved major success in the dao of the sword. It’s only natural that the north is all stirred up because of the upcoming Sword Activation Ceremony.”
“They’re the most dazzling chosen in the north! All cultivators of this generation basically worship them!”
“The Sword Activation Ceremony is definitely going to be watched by everybody.”
“Seems to me that their trip to the Fallen Immortal Moors was really a success. They made some shocking gains.”
“I heard that when they were at the Fallen Immortal Moors, both of them managed to form immortal wills in their sword spirits!”
Everyone in the teahouse was talking about Hordeslayer and Rampart.
Xu Qing sat next to a window in the teahouse, his expression neutral as he smelled the aroma of tea wafting up from his cup and listened to the chatter. Northern cultivators didn’t usually drink alcohol. They were fonder of spirit tea. As a result, cities usually had a lot of teahouses.
