When they heard Qing Lang and saw the yearning that filled Qing Lang's eyes, Feng Wei and the other Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort lowered their heads as the corners of their mouths twitched slightly.
"Hmm?"
Qing Lang's face sank when he saw the bitterness that appeared on their faces. "What? There's no Profundity Fragment that I can use? "
"Fort Master."
Under the indication of Ning Can's group of three, Feng Wei summoned up the courage to look at Qing Lang and laughed bitterly. "We didn't obtain anything from the Secret Treasure of Emperor Wu, let alone a Profundity Fragment."
"It isn't just that, all the 20 young experts that entered the Secret Treasure of Emperor Wu from Skywolf Fort have died there!"
Feng Wei finished speaking in a single breath, and then he looked at Qing Lang with a perturbed expression.
Qing Lang stood there with a calm expression, yet killing intent was concealed within his expression.
Especially his eyes, they had become extremely sharp now, and they seemed to be filled with coldness as if they were choosing to swallow someone up.
"Why is it like this?"
Qing Lang asked with a low voice.
"Fort Master, they died at the hands of the same person."
Feng Wei laughed bitterly.
At the same time, a violet colored figure appeared in Feng Wei's mind.
He'd met the owner of the violet colored figure early on when the Skywolf Fort held the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
Later on, the violet colored figure had suppressed the ten young experts and obtained the honor of being the first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
Practically at the instant Feng Wei finished speaking, an extremely formidable imposing aura suddenly gushed out from Qing Lang's body, and it caused the surrounding clouds and mist to shake.
"Who is it?!"
Qing Lang's voice was icy cold and contained ghastly killing intent.
"Duan Lingtian."
Feng Wei sighed.
"Duan Lingtian?"
When he heard Feng Wei, the coldness that covered Qing Lang's face vanished without a trace, and it was replaced by astonishment. "The person that was ranked first in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties held by our Skywolf Fort?"
"He's the Big Brother Ling Tian that little grandaunt mentioned?"
As he finished speaking, the figure of a yellow colored young woman appeared in Qing Lang's mind, and his body shuddered for no reason or rhyme.
"Yes."
Feng Wei hurriedly nodded.
"You didn't do anything to that Duan Lingtian, did you?"
Right at this instant, Qing Lang's gaze became fierce as he swept Feng Wei, Ning Can, and the other three Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort before he asked in a low voice.
"No."
The four of them hurriedly shook their heads.
"That's good … Remember, when facing that Duan Lingtian, don't take any chances. The methods of the person behind that little grandaunt are beyond your imagination! "
As Green Wolf spoke, his expression became extremely solemn.
When his words entered into the ears of Feng Wei's group of four, it caused them to be unable to refrain from looking at each other, and they were able to see fear in each other's eyes.
"After the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties came to an end, should we tell the Fort Master about our pursuit of Duan Lingtian?"
The four of them conversed privately via voice transmissions.
"I don't think we'd better tell him … Given Castle Lord's fear of Miss Xue Nai, if he knows about it, we'll definitely suffer."
"That's right, I can't tell you."
…
In next to no time, the four of them came to a consensus.
On the other hand, Qing Lang, the Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, was kept in the dark as well.
In the sky near the northern area of the northern desert, three figures flashed swiftly through the sky.
The people in the lead were two young women, and an old woman in green clothes followed behind them.
The old woman had an expressionless face, yet every single movement she made wasn't like the two young women that caused the clouds and mist all along the way to move.
Everywhere she passed, it seemed as if even the airflow in the air wasn't affected by her.
"Qing Nu, let me stay here for a period of time … I still haven't found Big Brother Ling Tian."
The yellow clothed young woman turned around to look at the old woman, and her mischievous eyes spun as she spoke pitifully.
"Young Miss, then don't make it difficult for me … Master is extremely unhappy that you brought Young Miss Xue Yi away from home this time, and he asked me to bring both of you back at the first possible moment."
When the old woman looked at the yellow clothed young woman, her eyes were filled with tender love, yet as she finished speaking, she felt slightly helpless.
The yellow-clothed young woman was none other than Han Xuenai.
Upon hearing the old woman's words, Han Xuenai's little head drooped listlessly. "Father is so annoying. Even when I came out to relax, he still cares … Hmph! When I return, I won't speak to him for a month! No, I won't speak to him for two months. "
When Han Xuenai's mutterings entered the ears of the young woman and the old woman, they could not help but smile wryly at each other.
"Qing Nu, have Little Gold, Little Black, and Little White come out from that place?"
Soon after, Han Xuenai seemed to have recalled something. She lifted her head, and the gloominess from before was swept away. Her mischievous eyes turned to look at the old woman in green.
There was a hint of anxiousness on her delicate face.
"Not yet."
The old woman in green shook her head.
"Can they come out safely?"
Han Xuenai asked worriedly.
"Those two little pythons ought to be fine … Their bloodlines from before had already attained the level of a Variant Saint Beast's descendant, and it isn't impossible for them to transform into Variant Saint Beasts at that place."
The old woman said.
"What about Little Gold?"
Han Xuenai's delicate face went slightly pale, and she asked with an anxious expression. "It won't be in trouble, right? If something really happens to it, how should I explain it to Big Brother Ling Tian? "
"It's hard to say. That little gold mouse is a Jade-eyed Heavenly Mouse, a descendant of a Saint Beast … Its bloodline is relatively fixed, and it's much more difficult for it to transform into a Saint Beast compared to the two little pythons. "
The old woman shook her head, and her words revealed that she wasn't certain.
"What will happen if it can't transform?"
Han Xuenai asked.
"It'll be a dead end!"
As a demon that had once entered that place, the old woman knew the details of that place.
It'll be a dead end!
These four short words shocked Han Xuenai to the point her face went pale.
"Little Gold, nothing must happen to you."
After a long while, Han Xuenai took a deep breath and muttered.
"Young Miss, it's time for us to depart," the old woman said calmly.
The old woman said calmly. As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared into thin air with the two girls without anyone seeing her do anything.
It was as though they had never appeared before.
In a place far away from the Northern Desert, there was an extremely luxurious and magnificent palace on an island suspended in mid-air.
At this moment, there were two figures standing in the sky above the palace.
The two figures were leaning against each other. It was a man and a woman.
The man was dressed in green, and he was a young man. He stood there with a graceful bearing.
The outline of his face was perfect as though it had been sculpted countless times.
His sword-like eyebrows were straight, and he exuded an awe-inspiring aura.
Under his sword-like eyebrows, his seemingly calm eyes were staring into the distance. There seemed to be strands of green energy pulsating in them.
His eyes suddenly sharpened, as if they could see through everything.
The woman next to him was dressed in green. Her peerless appearance that could cause the downfall of a nation seemed to overshadow everything in the surroundings.
When she stood next to him, they were a match made in heaven.
"Brother Feng, you should bring Tian 'er over as well … I'm worried about leaving him alone there."
The woman's voice was like an orchid as she spoke softly.
"Rou 'er, you finally brought this up … However, there's a reason why I left Tian' er over there. If it's for his own good, you should look on the bright side. "
The man said.
"Brother Feng, I know you left Tian 'er over there to train him … However, even if he's over here, can't he still train? Moreover, Tian 'er is under our eyes here after all. I'm more at ease. "
The woman said again.
"Rou 'er, of course, I've thought about what you said … However, if I bring Tian' er over from there, it'll be more harm than good to him."
"As for the reason, I don't know how to describe it … When you see Tian 'er again in the future, you'll naturally understand everything."
The man said.
"But Tian 'er is alone over there. What if something happens to him?"
The woman said worriedly.
"Don't worry … I've left three Dao Talismans for him. They can save his life three times."
The man comforted her.
"What if he uses up all the Dao Talismans?"
"Then, he can only rely on himself."
"Can't you send someone to protect him? You can protect him secretly. "
"Those three Dao Talismans are already the limit of my interference in his life … He'll have to rely on himself for the rest of his life! How can I, Duan Rufeng's son, be an ordinary person? "
"What if something happens to him?"
"We have to trust him."
…
After leaving the northern desert, Duan Lingtian finally arrived at his destination after traveling north for a few months.
It was an area adjacent to the Ruo Shui River.
This place was also known as the Northern Mountain Land.
"The Northern Mountain Land … The Northern Mountain Land … Back then, when Tian Wu, Uncle Feng, and I were on our way to the Ancient Desert City, the siblings that Uncle Feng saved seemed to be from the Northern Mountain Land."
Duan Lingtian muttered to himself as he looked at the ice coffin hovering next to him. To be more precise, he was looking at the red-clad woman lying in the ice coffin.
"The Northern Mountain's Lu Clan? I wonder if the Lu Clan is ranked high among the numerous forces in the Northern Mountain Land. "
Duan Lingtian was curious about this.
This was Duan Lingtian's first time in the Northern Mountain Land.
The reason he knew this place was called the Northern Mountain Land was because the Northern Mountain Land was marked on the map that he had borrowed from the Zeng Clan previously.
To the north of the Northern Mountain Land was the Ruo Shui River.
"Although the Northern Mountain Land is marked on the map, there's no detailed description of the Northern Mountain Land … I'll have to go there myself if I want to understand the Northern Mountain Land."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
With Xiong Quan and the ice coffin that Feng Tianwu was lying in, Duan Lingtian began to search his surroundings in an attempt to find a city in the Northern Mountain Land.
After spending half a day, he finally found a city.
It was a small city in the south of the Northern Mountain Land.
Although the city was small, there were many people going in and out of it.
"Xiong Quan, let's enter the city."
