Ling Tian laughed coldly as he looked at Ling Jian. "When you don't have the ability to protect your face, you have to prioritize your life. Something like face is something that you only need to care about when you reach a certain level of strength and status. Your body is your own, but your face is given to you by others! Do you really think that the current you has the qualifications to protect your face in front of Justice? Your actions will only cause you to lose even more face! "
Ling Jian stood there quietly without a single trace of shame in his eyes as he replied firmly, "Yes." After pausing for a moment, Ling Jian said word by word, "But there will definitely be a day when I will!"
"If you don't have the courage to spit out that mouthful of blood, you will really lose the qualifications to challenge me again. However, I am still very satisfied now. Alright, when the time comes, you can come and take back the face that you have lost. Haha …" Justice laughed heartily as he looked at Ling Jian. "Killing people is also a rather interesting thing at times, isn't it?"
Obviously, the sharp killing intent emanating from Ling Jian had piqued his interest.
Ling Jian muttered to himself for a moment before looking at Justice with a knowing smile.
In truth, Ling Jian's smile was as rare as a phoenix feather or a qilin horn. Even Ling Tian, Ling Chen, Ling Chi, Feng, Yun, Lei, and Dian, who were familiar with him, would rarely see him smile. But today, Ling Jian actually smiled at an outsider! This was truly a rare sight!
Ling Tian also smiled when he saw this scene. He slowly walked over to where the two of them were standing and shook his head. "What a pity, what a pity for such a flat ground." As he spoke, his right hand gently pressed down, and a force formed a small whirlwind visible to the naked eye. With a gentle spin, a half-meter square hole suddenly appeared on the ground. The ground that was paved with hard mountain rocks had actually been silently shaken into a large hole by the clash of auras between the two. All the rocks in the hole had already been turned into powder!
Where Ling Jian stood, there were two deep footprints, as if they had been cut by a knife or an axe! On the other hand, Justice's position didn't change at all.
Looking at the two clear footprints, Ling Jian let out a low sigh. Looking at Justice, his eyes blazed with a fiery light.
This was the gap between them! This was also Ling Jian's goal!
In the next three days, Ling Jian, Ling Chen, Li Xue, Ling Chi, and the rest teamed up in pairs or in groups of three to fight Justice once. In the end, the four of them teamed up to fight Justice once but were unable to gain any advantage over him.
The weird thing was that Ling Tian did not make a move from the start to the end. Surprisingly, Ling Tian did not request for Ling Tian to make a move either. Ling Tian had been observing from the sidelines, deep in thought as though he was pondering about something. Justice, on the other hand, spent most of his time looking up at the sky, deep in thought. The actions of the two of them were almost identical.
Three days later, Justice finally decided to leave after drinking two bottles of Blood of the Hero. But before they left, the conversation between Justice and Ling Tian left most of the people in the hall confused.
Justice: "I am leaving. Before the time is right, I will not return."
Ling Tian: "Oh."
Justice: "How long do you think you will need?"
Ling Tian: "About … five years. At most, six years."
Justice: "You are quite confident! How about five years later? "
Ling Tian: "Sure."
…
Ling Tian: "Are we friends?"
Justice: "Are we enemies?"
Ling Tian: "We are not friends or enemies. But we are opponents and partners. "
Justice: "Haha …"
Ling Tian: "It's a pity. If … I will kill you!"
Justice: "If … I will kill you too!"
Ling Tian: "I will wait for you to come and kill me."
Justice: "Same to you."
When the two of them were talking, Li Xue, who was closest to Ling Tian in terms of cultivation realm, suddenly realized that although Ling Tian did not release any sharp aura, there was an extremely dangerous aura coming from him. Such an aura was something that if one was not someone like Li Xue and Ling Tian, one would not be able to sense it. Furthermore, Ling Tian did not seem to be making any special movements. However, his entire body was like an unsheathed sword, overbearing as though he was attacking something.
Also, the words that the two of them were talking about seemed to have some hidden meaning. It was as though they were making an agreement or probing for something …
It was obvious that the two of them were engaged in an unprecedented and shocking battle. Li Xue thought to herself. However, just what kind of battle was it that even someone like her who understood Ling Tian the most was unable to see through it?
Furthermore, even though Ling Tian's cultivation had improved greatly, he was still at a disadvantage in this battle.
In that case, just how high was Justice's cultivation?!
Li Xue furrowed her brows and fell into deep thought. After a long time, her brows twitched and a look of shock appeared on her face. Could it be that their battle was actually …
Right at this moment, the two of them had already finished their conversation. Justice looked at Ling Tian with a profound gaze and smiled. Then, he waved his hand and left. He did not turn back. His tall figure floated along with the autumn wind, flying with the yellow leaves in the sky. Then, he suddenly disappeared, as if he had suddenly disappeared between heaven and earth.
Ling Tian stood with his hands behind his back. Looking at Justice's figure, he muttered, "You have disappeared but I am still here. Thus, I will definitely win. " Only at this moment did Ling Tian's aura return to his usual carefree self. However, this change was extremely subtle. In the eyes of others, the current Ling Tian was no different from the previous Ling Tian.
After saying that, he suddenly laughed and shook his head as though he had thrown something away. Then, he shook his head again and muttered to himself, "Interesting, what an interesting person. I really … can't bear to part with him. "
Ling Jian looked at the two of them talking. He looked at the spot where Justice had suddenly disappeared. He looked at Ling Tian's figure standing with his hands behind his back. A fervent light flashed in his eyes!
This, this was the strength of the peak?!
Ling Chen and Yu BingYan looked at Ling Tian's tall figure and a look of intoxication appeared in their eyes. It was as though just this back view was enough to intoxicate them …
The only thing that was not harmonious was Miss Li Xue's pouting lips. She looked as though she was about to vomit as she muttered to herself in disdain, "He … really knows how to act! Acting all the time! I really can't stand it … Heavens, if you open your eyes, hurry up and thunder … "
After ending this matter, Ling Tian returned to the Ling House and began his most leisurely days ever since he had arrived in this world. Every day, he accompanied the beauties, played chess, chatted, played the zither, wrote, painted … It was a typical life that only immortals could enjoy!
Ling Tian turned a deaf ear to all the disputes outside. He left everything to Ling Chen, Li Xue, Meng Lige, and Xiao YanXue to handle. This unprecedented delegation of power made everyone grumble endlessly. This was especially so for Meng LiGe and Ling Chen. The two of them were undoubtedly the most tired out and would often complain in front of Ling Tian. At least Ling Chen had a sturdy chest to lean on but Meng LiGe did not have such treatment. Even if Ling Tian wanted to lean on him, Meng LiGe would have to be willing to do so!
Ling Tian's reply was very simple: If I have to deal with everything myself, then what are you guys doing? What I need to be responsible for is only the few of you. As for whether you are tired or not … it has nothing to do with me. If you don't want to be so tired, you can imitate me and assign tasks as well. As long as it doesn't affect the overall situation, it's fine.
Ling Chen pouted after hearing this sentence. She leaned against that thick chest and acted coquettishly for a while before her anger subsided. Meng Lige rolled his eyes and turned to leave in a huff. To have such an attitude towards the Emperor, Meng Lige was definitely extremely daring!
What a joke, if everyone could do it, then why would I, Meng Lige, be needed? If we could be like you and be a hands-off shopkeeper, it would be strange if the world wasn't in chaos.
However, Meng LiGe still admired Ling Tian's character of not using the people he suspected and not doubting the people he used. Since ancient times, the number of Emperors who had such magnanimity could be counted. However, all of them were people who achieved great things! Only those who were not attached to absolute power could reach the peak of power! Working under such a master, even if it was tiring, it was still very comfortable. Just this trust alone was something that no one else in the world could give.
Therefore, even though Meng Lige was very tired, his mood was still very good.
As for Ling Jian, Ling Tian only said one sentence: Aren't you all eager to take revenge on the Lei Family? Leave enough power for me, and let the other kids go out and gain experience. You can do whatever you want.
With that one sentence, other than Ling Jian, the other eight assassins split into two groups and took turns to attack. Especially Feng, Yun, Lei, and Dian. They had been trampled on by Justice previously. This time, it was their turn to trample on others! This made Ling Jian, who was in charge of the Ling House's side courtyard, itch unbearably. He wished he could drag Ling Chi back and take his place.
In this period of time, Tamago had successfully destroyed the Wu Country. Other than the Moon Deity Country in the far west, it was equivalent to unifying half of the country. But if they wanted to pacify the Moon Deity Country, they would have to travel a long way. Furthermore, there was a dangerous desert in the middle. Even with Tamago's strength, they would not dare to move their troops. Furthermore, with the arrival of winter, the war would come to an end. How would Yu ManLou dare to cross the desert in the middle of winter? That was something that could easily lead to the complete annihilation of the entire army! To Tamago, pacifying the Moon Deity Country would take a long time.
With regards to the Lei Family's attack on the Ling family, Ling Tian only sent Ling Chi to send a letter to Yu ManLou. The letter stated that Yu BingYan was not in danger and that her body was fine. On the other hand, it stated his determination to annihilate the Lei Family. At the same time, he warned Yu ManLou and Tamago not to interfere. This was something that Yu ManLou agreed to without hesitation. To Ling Tian, this was also something that he had expected. The Lei Family's strength had already collapsed and they no longer had any value to Yu ManLou. Furthermore, the Lei Family would often send people to Tamago to cry and beg Yu ManLou to take revenge for Lei ZhenTian and the others. Yu ManLou was already annoyed beyond words. How could the current Ling Tian be someone that could be dealt with so easily?
Thus, when Ling Tian proposed to annihilate the Lei Family, it was exactly what Yu ManLou wanted. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
