"Big Brother Nie."
The people who walked into the Audience Hall of the Divine Might Marquis Estate were the travel-worn Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu. Duan Lingtian looked at Nie Fen and lightly smiled as he greeted them.
Nie Fen, the son of the Divine Might Marquis, Nie Yuan, had taken care of him when he was young.
He had always been grateful to Nie Yuan.
This point didn't change just because he possessed the strength to look down upon everyone in the Crimson Sky Kingdom.
"Grandpa Nie, Grandma Meng."
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian looked at the old man sitting at the head seat and the woman beside the old man.
"Little Tian, when did you return?"
The old man was the Divine Might Marquis Estate's Senior Marquis, Nie Rong. Even though he was worried about his son's safety, he still had an incomparably brilliant smile on his face when he looked at the uninvited guest before him.
Whoosh!
Not only that, the Senior Marquis left his seat at the same time and warmly welcomed the guest.
Meng Ping, who was originally standing beside him, followed up to welcome the guest, and she squeezed out a smile that contained a trace of bitterness.
"Little Tian, are you confident?"
Meng Ping went straight to the point.
Seeing Duan Lingtian return in time, she could naturally guess that Duan Lingtian had come for the sake of those four experts.
Those four experts were going to kill her son tomorrow and even annihilate the entire Crimson Sky Kingdom.
It was no coincidence that Duan Lingtian returned in time at such a sensitive time.
As soon as Meng Ping said this, Nie Rong, Nie Fen, Sima, and the red clothed old man all looked at Duan Lingtian.
"Teacher."
After Duan Lingtian smiled apologetically to Meng Ping, he didn't answer her for the time being and instead looked at Sima as he greeted him.
Meng Ping didn't mind when she saw this.
Not only did she not mind, but her impression of Duan Lingtian increased greatly in her heart instead.
With Duan Lingtian's current achievements and status, it was extremely rare for him to not forget his roots.
Seeing Duan Lingtian take the initiative to greet him, Sima Chang Feng was somewhat flattered.
Even though he and Duan Lingtian were master and disciple when they were still at Paladin Academy, they weren't actually master and disciple.
Today, Duan Ling Tian's strength and achievements had left him far behind, but he still hadn't forgotten the friendship between them, and it caused his heart to be filled with warmth.
"Duan Lingtian, the thing I'm most proud of in my life isn't breaking through to the Void Prying Stage all those years ago, nor is it becoming the Dean of Paladin Academy … Instead, it's forming a relationship of master and disciple with you."
Sima Chang Feng took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart as he said with a serious face.
Sima Chang Feng's words came from the bottom of his heart, without a single word of falsehood.
Although he was the Dean of Paladin Academy, he had never exposed his identity in front of the students.
Of course, this didn't mean that he didn't care about Paladin Academy. On the contrary, he did his duty to Paladin Academy.
For this reason, he didn't even hesitate to appear in Paladin Academy with the identity of an ordinary teacher.
In the academy, besides the Vice Dean, no one knew of his true identity.
He still remembered that year, he became the teacher of the new students as usual.
When school had just started, a student that stood out like a crane among chickens appeared in his field of vision.
At that time, he realized that this student wasn't simple and that his future accomplishments would be great.
But as time passed, he realized that he'd still underestimated that student.
That seemingly meek student had caused one enormous trouble after another in Paladin Academy.
If that student had died because of revenge, he wouldn't have found it strange.
But the result had exceeded his expectations time and time again!
Not only did that student live well, he lived a more comfortable life than anyone else.
Later on, the battle strategy that student displayed caused him to be even more ashamed.
He knew that even if it was him, it was absolutely impossible for him to lead the Crimson Sky Kingdom's army to occupy a border city guarded by the Southern Champion Kingdom's army without expending a single soldier.
Master Xiang, hiding behind a curtain, strategizing, and annihilating the enemy with a casual chat!
All of this was accomplished by that student.
He originally thought that as the most outstanding student in Paladin Academy's Star Mastermind Department, that student would stay in the Crimson Sky Kingdom in the future and expand the territory of the Crimson Sky Kingdom.
But never had he imagined that.
That student chose to leave the Crimson Sky Kingdom and go to the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, and even entered the number one sect in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, the Seven Star Sword Sect.
After that, shocking news entered the Crimson Sky Kingdom and entered his ears, causing him to be shocked repeatedly.
Annihilating the Azure Forest Tri-Sect and rebuilding the Seven Star Sword Sect with his own strength.
Participating in the Darkhan Dynasty's Martial Competition and obtaining first place, becoming the publically acknowledged number one expert in the younger generation of the Darkhan Dynasty.
Not yet 30 years old, but his cultivation had most likely broken through to the Void Interpretation Stage!
…
That student of his was precisely the violet clothed young man that stood before him, Duan Lingtian!
"Teacher, you're too kind. As the saying goes, a teacher for a day is a father for life. No matter what my current cultivation is or where I am, Duan Lingtian, you're my teacher, my teacher for life. "
Duan Lingtian spoke with a serious expression when he heard Sima Chang Feng's emotional words that came from the bottom of his heart.
"Commander Duan is at a high position, yet you're able to not forget your roots. It's truly rare."
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, the red clothed old man at the side had already finished speaking, and he flattered Duan Lingtian.
When he saw Duan Lingtian look at him after hearing what he said, he instantly revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.
This Commander Duan has finally noticed me?
This Commander Duan was a great figure that had made a name for himself in the Darkhan Dynasty and had gone to the Foreign Lands to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
Commander Duan was delighted in his heart when he heard what the red clothed old man said. Perhaps he would reward the red clothed old man with seven or eight high grade medicinal pills or even one or two high grade spirit weapons.
"Commander Duan …."
When faced with Duan Lingtian who looked over, the red clothed old man had an indescribable feeling of excitement.
It was as if he'd already seen the scene of Duan Lingtian rewarding him with medicinal pills and spirit weapons.
But in next to no time, the smile on his face froze.
"Do I know you?"
Duan Lingtian glanced at the red clothed old man nonchalantly and asked word by word.
That one sentence alone caused the red clothed old man's face to turn red. His gaping mouth could no longer make any sound.
It was as though someone was strangling his throat tightly.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian looked at Meng Ping under the shocked gazes of the others. "Grandma Meng, about that matter … I don't have any confidence."
It was obvious that Duan Lingtian was answering Meng Ping's earlier question.
Meng Ping had previously asked if he had any confidence in dealing with the person who wanted to kill her son and destroy the Crimson Sky Kingdom tomorrow.
Duan Lingtian's words were the truth.
If he could take the initiative to ask the Devilseal Tablet to devilify him, he was 100% confident.
However, if he could not, it would be the opposite.
He had no confidence at all!
When Duan Lingtian's words entered the ears of Meng Ping and the others, it caused their expressions to change.
Even Feng Tianwu's expression changed slightly when she realized what she was worried about was about to happen.
Her Elder Brother Duan was going to take the risk to deal with the powerhouse from Izumo Sect.
The reason Feng Tianwu thought Izumo Sect was looking for trouble with Duan Lingtian was because she knew Duan Lingtian had offended Izumo Sect.
If she knew Duan Lingtian had offended the second-rate force, North Nether Sect, whose strength was not inferior to Izumo Sect, at the same time …
Anicca Sect might even make a move on him because they coveted the Emperor Stage Profundity Fragment that might be in his possession.
Perhaps, she would not think that way.
At this moment, even Duan Lingtian himself did not know which of the three major second-rate forces in the northern desert was looking for trouble with him.
"You don't have confidence? Then why did you come back this time? "
Meng Ping asked after taking a deep breath.
Under the watchful eyes of the others, Duan Lingtian smiled faintly. "Since they're looking for me … and I know about this matter, I can't possibly hide, right?"
If he hid, he would not be Duan Lingtian!
"Fool!"
The moment Duan Lingtian's words left his mouth, Nie Rong's expression changed immediately. For the first time, he shouted at Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian was stunned. He was completely shocked by Nie Rong's agitation.
"Little Tian, if you're not confident, then leave the Crimson Sky Kingdom."
Meng Ping took a deep breath again. She seemed to have made up her mind as she told Duan Lingtian.
In fact, she knew very well in her heart.
If Duan Lingtian did not show up tomorrow, the four powerhouses with unknown origins would definitely kill her son.
However, she could not exchange Duan Lingtian's life for her son's life.
If it was not for Duan Lingtian, she might have been imprisoned, let alone take over the Flying Hong Sect.
That was what she owed Duan Lingtian.
Moreover, it wasn't only she who owed Duan Lingtian a favor, even her husband similarly owed Duan Lingtian a life!
If it wasn't for Duan Lingtian removing the poison of the Dark Nether Mink for her husband, it would be impossible for her husband to live until now.
"This won't do! If he leaves, then we'll all die! "
The red clothed old man's face went grim as he spoke in panic.
At this moment, he seemed to have completely forgotten how terrifying Duan Lingtian was before the threat of death.
But unfortunately, even if he was hysterical, he was still completely disregarded by the others.
"Little Tian, you leave."
Nie Rong seemed to have instantly aged a few years as he sighed.
As parents, how could they disregard the life and death of their children?
But if it required Duan Lingtian's life in exchange for his son's life, then he was really unable to do it.
"Yeah, Little Tian … If my father was here, he would surely not allow you to take such a risk."
Even though Nie Fen was worried about his father's safety, he understood his father's character even more.
Once his father knew that something had happened to Duan Lingtian because of him, his father would surely not be able to accept it.
With his father's violent temper, even if he knew that he was no match for Duan Lingtian, he would surely spare no expense to take revenge for him.
At that time, his father would still be unable to escape death.
Sima stood at the side and did not speak. With his position, it was indeed not good for him to say anything.
"Grandpa Nie, Grandma Meng, Big Brother Nie … Don't worry, I know what to do."
Hearing the words of the three Nie Clan members, Duan Lingtian's heart felt warm as he spoke with a light smile.
After he finished speaking, before the three of them could react, Duan Lingtian's figure flashed and disappeared before everyone's eyes.
The three Nie Clan members, Sima Chang Feng, and the red clothed old man did not have time to react before Feng Tianwu vanished into thin air as well.
From beginning to end, the three of them did not have time to react.
