Celestial Peak Chapter 487
Advertisement
The Wang Family, a genuine colossus that had existed for eons. They were a secluded family, who only have a hundred family member at best but have hundreds of thousands of disciples under the name of Peerless Three Weapon Sect.
The Spear, the Bow, and lastly the Sword. The three weapons mastered by the Wang Family. With the Spear God and Bow God being brothers from the same family, they were
Conservative with their ways as the Family Head only changed for three generations so far. From the first Spear God Wang Shu Qing as the First Family Head, then to the current Spear God Wang Hong, and to the current Family Head, the current head, the oldest son of the Spear God, Wang Lin.
Inside a secluded room protected by multiple layers of formations and guards from the Shadow Pavilion, were two people. One who liked the look of being old and another who seemed young.
He was Wang Ling the oldest of the three sons of Wang Hong. A Spearmaster who achieved the peak of spears at an early age. He was one of the few who had reached Heaven Hell Harmony Realm and could activate an Emperor's Domain.
Wang Ling being the Family Head of the Wang Family of course held power beyond anyone could ever imagine. Every member of their Family even the youngest ones were expert that could annihilate a low-level sect on their own. Yet at this moment, that same man bowed to Sun Wu with a broad smile on his face.
"It had been so long, Grandpa Sun Wu."
"If I remember correctly, it should be a few decades since we last met, correct? Also, you should call me Butler Sun as you should."
"You know I can't do that, Grandpa Sun." Wang Lin casually brushed Sun Wu's words, "Anyway, I heard something about you earlier, Grandfather, many people said that you arrived in the city with a group? Where is Grandpa staying? Why not come to the Family Manor? We have a lot of Courtyards to give to your guests, grandpa."

"As always you are talkative. But, as much as I would love to spend some time here, I am stuck in a situation where I cannot stay for the time being. I also cannot tell you where I am staying, it would implicate the Family and the rest of the Coalition."
"Is that so, then, can you at least tell me if the Sword God is indeed a woman as they say?"
"My lips are sealed, Wang Lin."
Wang Ling kept his silence and just accepted Sun Wu's response. Lifting the cup of tea, Wang Ling finally asked, "So, how was Grandpa's investigations? Did it bear any fruit or was it still a dead end?"
"Shu Qing appointed me to find the origin of the bastard who attacked him and the Lady." Sun Wu said as he took a sip of tea.
"Then, did Grandpa Sun managed to find the one who did it? Who was it? The one who hurt the family? Who was it?"
Crack! The cup broke in half, then turned to ash, before becoming nothing.
Wang Lin was a handsome man, but unlike his family, he failed to inherit their fierce eyes, instead, he got were mellow gaze. He was a soft man, he was full of smiles and was very kind, but there was none who could rebuke his birthright because, like every other member of the Wang Family, he bears unimaginable hate towards those who hurt his family.
"Calm down, Wang Lin, you're turning unbecoming. It is troublesome keeping your techniques in check, so stop already else I'll tell your father."
"Oh, I apologize, I once again failed to keep my qi in check… you were joking about telling father, right?" Wang Lin snapped out of it as he laughed.
Sun Wu did not answer and Wang Lin began to sweat bullets. Wang Hong was a loving father, albeit a little bit underwhelming when fighting with his wives, he was nonetheless terrifying when it comes to the Elders of the Family.

'The old must show the path for the young ones, once we derail then they too would be lost. Thus, if anyone commits a mistake, I myself would come for you.' Wang Hong's promise was never to be taken lightly.
Being the Head of the Family Wang Lin had it rougher than most. Letting out a dry laugh, Wang Lin finally cleared his throat, asking, "What of the investigation, Grandpa Sun?"
Butler Sun looked at Wang Lin and began telling him about his findings. How the Revenants had been in existence since a hundred years ago and how Wang Shu Qing and Xiao Fei'er were both tricked.
"So, the Revenants have existed for so long and we haven't taken notice of them?" Wang Lin grew concerned about the matter, "They could have already infiltrated us by now?"
"No, I don't think so. If that is true then we should have fallen twenty years ago. Revenants grow stronger faster than anyone in this Universe. They are unlike the Primordials who live a long life and develop over time. They improve quickly by killing, devouring souls, killing the younger ones slowly. They are already being hunted, but the rate of their killing is only hastening. That meant if they had already infiltrated us, then Sects have Sect should have fallen and fear should be established by now."
"Then, that means. Something is hindering them from doing that. But what?"
"I… still have no clue what. But when the Congregation arrives I should be able to piece together the problem with the help of someone."
"Is that so, then that is good. The sooner we combat this the sooner we would be able to start recovering from our loss of the North… Hmm, wait, did you just say someone is helping you? You're allowing someone to help you? Is it the Sword God?"
Sun Wu smiled as she shakes his head, "No, but you're close. And that is the reason why I am here. Wang Lin, I need you to prepare yourself for the Congregation, you see, I am not just here as Sun Wu, but also as an envoy for the Holy Race, you see…"
Sun Wu began the talk, explaining the situation little by little but without allowing any leakage of Wang Ling's identity.
Wang Lin began thinking and after some time, he came to the decision of "I refuse to simply abide to the Holy Race's desires. I have to assess the merits and demerits before that. But I will keep that in mind." His eyes did not contain a hint of hesitation.
Mellow as he may be, he was still the Family Head of the Wang Family, no one could tell him what to do. He was not afraid to rebuke Sun Wu's requests.
But Sun Wu did not frown or anything, instead, he just grinned, "Very good, as expected you would react like that. That's good to know. Seeing how you are not easily swayed is good."
Butler Sun did not have to convince Wang Lin to completely agree as with these words of the Holy Race backing the Sword Tower, a seed would be planted a seed of thought.
With this, preparation was completed and at the very same time as this was occurring the missing members of the Coalition member who would be joining the Congregation began arriving one after the other.
That very same night would also be the time when Wang Ling calls Qinyang to his bedroom to rid her of the poison inside her as much as possible.
And a few days later… the Congregation would begin.

Mistbound: Eternity
The world is said to be formed out of duality of man. Good and evil, right and wrong, light and dark. And with duality, comes conflict. A meaningless clash of ideals results in pointless wars. Azlan is wanderer who doesn't falls in either category. Tired and done with the redundant world, he lives his secluded life, hunting monstrosites for coin in the crumbling province of Mountaliya, situated in the land of Forsa. The premise follows Azlan as he explores the province, experiencing the culture and its people as they try to stand unshaken amidst a cold and unforgiving world. The story is a dark fantasy that is a balance of action and world building but most importantly, it follows the people going about their daily lives. The world has entered a state of stasis, there are no high stakes, no glory to be had, only a decaying realm of ice remains. Everyone awaits for Heaven's descent, an event prophesied to bring the world out of stasis, by granting the champion of the event a wish. Heaven Shall Descend. I wanted to write a high fantasy story that doesn't focuses too much on Magic and Swordfights, but rather interactions between people, a bit of politics and ideals. This is my first attempt at writing something this huge, please let me know if you see mistakes or any problems in general, so I can learn from them. (The cover picture is from the year 1818, "Wanderer Above the Mist" by Caspar David Friedrich). I also write Short stories set in the same shared universe. You can read them here: Dark Fantasy Short Stories.
