Scattered Immortal Chapter 3 Part1

Chapter 3.1: Fairies of the World

In his sleep, Tang Qing had a dream. In the dream, he was lying on his back on a chair, enjoying the sunlight as he bathed under the warm rays of sun while drinking wine and listening to a small tune. This had always been his dream, and now that he had awoken, he was ready to realize it.

Opening his hazy eyes, he saw a face as beautiful as the autumn moon, a face that oppresses others. Only on such a perfect face was a pair of beautiful eyes filled with anger. Seeing Tang Qing awaken the anger that had instantly disappeared from her face was replaced with a mischievous and evil smile.

“Young Master Tang, are you sleeping comfortably?” Do you want me to rub your shoulders? Hmm?”

“No need.” Tang Qing shook his drowsy head and continued to pinch his eyebrows.

The smile on Shangguan Ling's face instantly disappeared. She glared at Tang Qing and said, “I've traveled for an entire day, but you've slept quite comfortably! Hurry up and come down!”

“Miss, thank you so much for sending me off!”

Ever since his consciousness had recovered, Tang Qing had been digging upwards and hadn't had a comfortable sleep for a long time. This awakening made him feel refreshed, and as he got out of the carriage, he couldn't help but stretch his body and look around while raising his head.

On the east side was a rugged mountain range surrounded by fiery red trees. At the top of the mountain range was a silver-white waterfall that was flowing downwards, flowing into the lake on the west side, making the lakesh.o.r.e shaped lake surface more transparent. The green sea, cascading waterfalls, colored forests, and strange mountains, seemed to be a wondrous and fantastic natural scenery. Even in the mortal world, it was not like this.

Tang Qing was surprised. He could see that this was a cave dwelling, and the cave dwelling was enveloped in an array formation that encompa.s.sed everything. The array formation within the cave, with just a glance, found that there were thirty-six types of natural array formations within, using these to create such a beautiful and unique s.p.a.ce.

“Hey! Tang Qing, on the way here, I originally wanted to ask you where you want to go, but unfortunately, you fell asleep and I didn't have the heart to wake you up, so I brought you to this place first.” Shangguan Ling explained naturally, just like he had.

“Oh, so it's like that! I haven't slept for too long.” Although Tang Qing was currently very weak, with the body of a Nine Calamity Rogue Immortal, ordinary cultivators were unable to shake him at all. He was also too tired, so he directly fell asleep. He yawned and asked, “Where is this place?”

“Oh, this is Big Sister Mo's cave, do you know about it? Forget it! You wouldn't understand even if I told you. In any case, there are many things you haven't seen before, and I will open your eyes to you today on account of you treating my horse. Consider this the debt of grat.i.tude that I, Shangguan Ling, have paid to you.”

“Alright!” Tang Qing had always been a very casual person. Moreover, the scenery created in the cave was really pleasing to the eyes. The most important thing was that he was a bit hungry right now.

“Big Sister Mo!” I'm here…” After arranging the carriage, Shangguan Ling took off her cloak and ran towards a manor on the opposite side.

Within the manor, the green gra.s.s was evergreen, and birds chirped and the flowers were fragrant. Tang Qing also followed and entered the manor's inner hall.

“Hey, wait here for now. Don't blame me for not reminding you that there are layers of formations outside and that it is extremely dangerous. Don't run around and blame me for losing your life.” Finished speaking, Shangguan Ling walked towards the other houses.

The interior of the hall was bright and clear, giving off a very comfortable feeling. The tables and chairs inside were all made of stone that were as white as jade. Although it did not look gorgeous on the whole, it was extremely exquisite. There was another room that was connected to the living room. Tang Qing casually took a glance and discovered that there were a few scrolls of ancient books inside which should be the study. He was not interested in these things, but a painting on the desk caught his attention.

It was a picture of a starry sky outlined with black lines. In the night sky, the stars were bright, the mysterious Three Houses of the Stars, the mysterious might of the four elephants, the mysterious constellations… This painting seemed ordinary, but the concept within it was hard for an ordinary person to understand.

The reason this painting attracted Tang Qing's attention was not because it was incomplete, nor was it a profound concept, but because it looked very familiar. When he walked in and carefully examined it, he was almost certain that this painting was the one he had drawn back then. He still vaguely remembered when he played chess with his old friend and lost, so he chose this painting as a wager and lost it to his old friend. However, why was this painting here? And it was broken into two?

Tang Qing was about to touch the torn traces on the edge when a stern shout suddenly came from behind him.

“What are you doing?!”

The person who came was none other than Shangguan Ling. She glared angrily with a ferocious look in her eyes as she said, “You are quite bold. Didn't I tell you not to bang around? You even dare to enter Sister Mo's study, are you tired of living? ” Shangguan Ling walked into the study. When she saw the picture on the table, for some reason, her expression suddenly turned solemn.

“Was that the painting you touched just now?”

“Yes.” Tang Qing replied honestly, “What?”

“Do you know that this is Sister Mo's most beloved and treasured painting? Do you know how precious this painting is? You actually dare to touch it on your own, I think you must be tired of living! ”

“It's just a painting,” Tang Qing explained, “I won't touch it.”

“What did you say? Just a painting? That's it? Oh my G.o.d! How ignorant are you?!” Shangguan Ling had a surprised and contemptuous look on her face. Her eyes were wide open as she said, “Do you know what this is? This Wanxiang star diagram is the real work of a legend. It contains countless profound concepts and mysteries, and if I can comprehend one of them, I will have endless benefits. You actually said that it's just a painting, you truly do not know what's good for you! ”

“Is that so…”
