Ever since he killed Nangong Lok and unveiled the prelude of the Eight Directions Storm gathering in Sky Bearing, everything that happened afterwards had been smooth sailing and was within his expectations. Even if there were some accidents, it was not a big deal.
All in all, everything was within his control and the smoothness of everything made Ling Tian feel extremely satisfied.
Only in the recent few days did the assassins from the Blood Slaughter Pavilion sneak into Sky Bearing, followed by the sudden appearance of Qian ShuiRou. Especially the top-notch expert that he met at the entrance of the Smoky Thea Tower. He was a peerless expert that Ling Tian had never seen before in his life and was someone that Ling Tian did not have the confidence to deal with. Everything happened so suddenly and became so confusing in just a few days. Furthermore, the entire situation was gradually spiraling out of his control and this made Ling Tian extremely uncomfortable. This was something that a chess player would never tolerate!
As he went through all the matters one by one, Ling Tian gradually placed all his focus on Qian ShuiRou! According to the information that he had, this lady definitely did not belong to any of the Eight Great Families. However, no matter if it was her personal strength or the strength that she possessed, apart from the Tamago and DongFang Families, no one else in the Eight Great Families could compare to her!
From this point of analysis, Ling Tian obtained a piece of good news and a piece of bad news!
The good news was that the ridiculously powerful expert should not be related to Qian ShuiRou. If the two of them were related, even if that expert did not participate in the encirclement due to his status, he might not be able to escape unscathed. Furthermore, an expert like that expert would definitely not listen to anyone and Qian ShuiRou was obviously the person with the highest authority! Thus, the two of them should not be related. If the two of them were to join forces, Ling Tian knew that he would not be able to deal with them. After all, in front of absolute strength, small tricks would not be of much use!
The bad news was not entirely bad. While it was not good, it allowed Ling Tian to have a rough idea of Qian ShuiRou's background. If such a character was not a hidden force of some Great Family, how could there be no news of her? Furthermore, her appearance seemed to have some sort of relationship with the Imperial Family!
Sky Bearing Imperial Family! Ling Tian suddenly had an idea. If he wanted to unravel this mystery, the most direct way was to start with the royal family! Although it was temporarily inconvenient for Ling Tian to personally take action, Ling Tian was still very relieved to let Ling Jian take action.
After figuring this out, Ling Tian couldn't help but relax. He suddenly felt that he had been sitting for too long. Even with his strong body, he felt a little sore. Just as he was about to stretch, he raised his hand halfway and suddenly stopped.
He didn't know which room it came from, but there was a very light knocking sound coming from outside. The wind was howling outside, so this sound was almost inaudible. However, Ling Tian's hearing was very good, so it was far better than an ordinary martial artist's. Especially after he had recently broken through to the Xian Tian realm, he could hear the falling petals and leaves within a thousand feet. Although the sound was still far away, it could still be heard vaguely in the dead of night.
The moment Ling Tian heard it, he could tell that it was the sound of someone knocking on the door. Furthermore, the sound was very rhythmic. After knocking three times, it stopped, followed by two more knocks. This should be a special method of communication used by some organization.
Ling Tian took a deep breath, and his body floated out like a goose feather. He then stuck to the wall and looked around, only to see the curtains of the XiMen Family's Extreme Joy Pavilion rustling.
Ling Tian lifted his body slightly, and was already on the roof. He then landed on the roof of the Extreme Joy Pavilion like a falling leaf. Placing his ear on the roof tiles, he concentrated his inner qi and listened carefully.
He then heard a person in the room say, "How is it? What did father say? "It was XiMen Qing's voice, suppressed to a whisper.
Another thin voice replied, "The Family Head has already sent out fifty Blood Iron Death Soldiers to avenge the death of the young noble. This operation is extremely secretive, and we must kill the young noble in one strike. We must not leak any information. If Beyond Heavens were to find out that we were the ones who did it, it would be terrible. The Family Head is afraid that the young noble will not be able to hold himself back and make a move in advance. Firstly, it would alert the enemy, and secondly, it would be difficult to succeed. This subordinate has come to inform the young noble in advance, and he must not act blindly without thinking. "
XiMen Qing said, "But this damned bastard has made me lose face these past few days. When I catch him, I will personally punish him. I want him to suffer a fate worse than death. I want him to suffer a fate worse than death!" XiMen Qing's voice was slightly louder when he said those words. Then, the sound of grinding teeth could be heard. His heart must be filled with hatred.
That thin voice chuckled and said, "Young master, don't be anxious. The Blood Iron Death Soldiers were personally trained by the Family Head. Every one of them has strong martial arts, and they do not fear death. Dealing with a mere Ling Tian, wouldn't it be easy? No matter how strong his martial arts are, he is still a pampered young noble. Would he be able to withstand the Blood Iron Death Soldiers? At that time, wouldn't it be up to young master to decide how to deal with him? I heard that that brat has two beauties by his side. Young master will be able to enjoy your luck with women once again, haha … "
XiMen Qing let out a lewd laugh, "Six, you don't say, those two lasses are really adorable. Tsk tsk, this young master has seen countless women, but I have never seen such beauties before. Let's let that damned Ling Tian wear a green hat even when he becomes a ghost. After this young master has a taste of them, I will definitely not treat you guys unfairly, and let that bastard have a few more brothers. Hehehe … "
As he said that, the two of them began to laugh lewdly.
A short while later, XiMen Qing asked, "When will they reach Sky Bearing? I can't wait any longer. They must be clean from the start to the end, and there must not be any survivors. "
The one called 'Six' replied, "With their speed, they should be able to reach Sky Bearing before sunset tomorrow. Young master can rest assured, the beauties will be waiting for you there. As for the secret, you don't have to worry. Before this batch of Blood Iron Death Soldiers left, they have already consumed the 'Unfettered Celestial Ascension Powder'. When the time comes, they will immediately ascend to immortality, and there won't be any unnecessary details! They definitely won't leak the secret. "
XiMen Qing responded with an 'En', and the two of them began to discuss how they should deal with Ling Tian after capturing him. XiMen Qing gritted his teeth, and thought of all sorts of cruel and inhumane torture methods. The two of them continued to talk endlessly, and were extremely excited.
On the roof, Ling Tian floated up like a white cloud, and returned to the Heavenly Fragrance Chamber without a sound. In the Extreme Joy Chamber, XiMen Qing and XiMen Qing were still discussing excitedly, completely unaware that their entire plan had been exposed.
"XiMen Qing, no matter how many people your XiMen Family sends, if I let even a single strand of your hair leave Sky Bearing, then this young noble will have let myself down!" A cold light flashed past Ling Tian's eyes as he muttered to himself. XiMen Qing actually had such thoughts about Ling Chen and Yu BingYan, and this made Ling Tian extremely angry.
Without Yu ManTian's antics, the scholarly meet on the second day was much more normal. XiMen Qing's performance today was also commendable, being extremely polite and refined. While he lost to Yu BingYan in painting, and then to Ling Chen in music, XiMen Qing's performance was extremely graceful, and he even praised Yu BingYan and Ling Chen greatly, not feeling ashamed of his loss. It could be said that XiMen Qing's bearing was extremely graceful.
All the Confucian scholars nodded their heads secretly, thinking that while this young noble XiMen had suffered so many setbacks, he was still able to maintain his composure. With such a calm temperament, no matter what kind of knowledge, as long as he persevered, he would definitely be able to reach the realm of large success. Thus, all of them were full of praise for XiMen Qing.
Only Ling Tian knew that the reason why this young noble XiMen Qing was so humble and magnanimous was because in his heart, Ling Tian would already be a toy for him to toy with by tonight! As for Ling Chen and Yu BingYan, in XiMen Qing's eyes, they were already women that he could toy with as he wished. What was the point of competing with his own women?
Towards XiMen Qing's daydreaming nonsense, Ling Tian looked on coldly from the side, and sneered in his heart. When night falls, XiMen Qing would know who was the one crying.
After lunch, Ling Tian brought Ling Chen and Yu BingYan out of the Smoky Thea Tower.
The three of them walked around the city a few times before arriving at a large house. This was the secret meeting place of the Violent Wind Gang, which had been purchased many years ago. The location was extremely remote, and very few people came here.
Ling Tian pushed open the door and entered. There were already seven to eight people waiting inside. It was Ling Jian and the other five, as well as a few leaders of the Violent Wind Gang. When they saw Ling Tian enter, they bowed together.
Ling Tian waved his hand and asked, "Have you found out the whereabouts of Ye BaiFei and the rest? How much do you know about Qian ShuiRou?" As he spoke, he sat down on the armchair in the middle. Ye BaiFei and the other assassins of the Blood Slaughter Pavilion had moved out of their residence after the battle with Ling Tian.
A middle-aged man stood up. It was the Violent Wind Gang's leader, Li Lin. He respectfully said, "Reporting to Young Master, we have just received news. Ye BaiFei and the rest are staying in a small alley not far from the Yang Residence. I heard that the families there received quite a bit of silver and moved out. However, Qian ShuiRou's background is truly mysterious. We have spent quite a bit of effort, but we have yet to find out anything! Please punish us, Young Master! "
Ling Tian replied with an 'oh' and said, "Qian ShuiRou's influence is unfathomable. It's only natural that you can't find out anything. What crime do you have? How many people are there in Ye BaiFei and the rest? Are there any new people? "
Li Lin said, "According to the brothers who came to report, we don't know the exact number of people. They are all very skilled, and the brothers are afraid of alerting them, so we didn't dare to go near them. However, based on their daily purchases of food, if there are no accidents, there should be around thirteen or fourteen of them. Only two people come out every day, and the rest don't seem to have any movements. "
"Thirteen or fourteen people?" Ling Tian frowned. "So many?"
Ling Jian said, "Young Master, no matter how many people they have, with Young Master around, killing them will be as easy as chopping vegetables. Hehe. "His voice was filled with confidence. Behind him, Ling Feng, Ling Chi, and the rest were all eager to give it a try.
Ling Tian looked at them and said, "Do you really think that this Young Master is invincible? Ling Jian, excessive self-confidence is no longer self-confidence, but arrogance and conceit! No matter what, one must never underestimate one's enemies. Remember this! "He smiled and said leisurely," How can fighting with one's life be better than reaping the benefits of the fisherman?
