Upon hearing the old man's words, Duan Lingtian came to a realization.
No wonder the other party did not dare to kill anyone to obtain more Origin Stones. It turned out that they were afraid of offending the Yin Yang Sect.
It made sense when he thought about it.
No matter what, the Yin Yang Sect was a first-rate force in the Inner Land. It would be easy for them to destroy the Gold-Devouring Organization.
However, once the Yin Yang Sect made their move …
The Gold-Devouring Organization would not be able to escape even if they wanted to.
"Little brother, it's better for you to leave now … Apart from the person you killed and the person who lied to you, there are still many people from the Gold-Devouring Organization hiding in the dark. They must be informing the others now!"
The old man advised Duan Lingtian as he said, "The Gold-Devouring Organization's base is nearby. It won't be long before one or two of the Ten Great Guardians of the Gold-Devouring Organization arrive … They're at the peak of the Void after all! "
"Thank you for the reminder … However, I still want to stay and join in the fun."
Duan Lingtian smiled and did not take it to heart.
Peak of the Void?
"Join in the fun?"
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, the old man's mouth twitched before he shook his head. It seemed like he had wasted his breath.
However, he did not try to persuade Duan Lingtian anymore.
He had done everything he could.
The rest was not something he could control.
Just like what the old man had said, it did not take long. About half an hour later, three swift sounds of wind whistling came from the distant sky. In just a blink of an eye, three people arrived at the Ruo Shui Riverside.
These three old men were old, but they were spirited. It was obvious that their cultivation base was extraordinary.
"Greetings, Guardians!"
When the three old men appeared, the middle-aged man who had failed to deceive Duan Lingtian with three exquisite tokens in his hand hurriedly bowed to them. His tone was filled with humility.
Three Guardians!
When the three old men appeared and the middle-aged man addressed them respectfully, everyone's expression turned solemn.
The Gold-Devouring Organization only had a total of ten Guardians. Why did three of them suddenly appear?
Those who had not turned around to join in the fun earlier also turned around one by one. They followed the gazes of the majority and looked at the three old men who had just arrived.
"Who killed the people from the Gold-Devouring Organization?"
One of the old men asked in a deep voice.
"Guardian Liu, it's him! It's him! "
The middle-aged man immediately pointed at Duan Lingtian and roared hysterically.
"It's you who killed the people of the Gold-Devouring Organization?"
The old man's sharp gaze fell on Duan Lingtian as he asked in a deep voice.
Duan Lingtian glanced at the old man and ignored him. It was as if he had completely ignored him, let alone answered him.
"Guardian Liu, look at how arrogant he is! He actually dares to ignore you in front of you. "
The middle-aged man stood at the side and added fuel to the fire, hoping that the world would be in chaos.
The old man's expression was extremely ugly, but he was not impulsive enough to directly attack Duan Lingtian. He continued to ask in a deep voice, "Sir, what is your background?"
"He's just a nobody. You don't have to worry."
Duan Ling Tian finally spoke. He had a casual expression on his face as he spoke in an unconcerned manner.
A nobody?
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, the old man was stunned, but he did not believe Duan Lingtian's words.
A nobody who dared to kill the people of the Gold-Devouring Organization?
A nobody who dared to ignore him?
"Sir, the Gold-Devouring Organization is a 'consensual' business. No matter who it is, as long as they're not willing, we won't force them … Don't you think you've crossed the line by killing our people?"
Another old man stared at Duan Lingtian and asked coldly.
"Consensual?"
Hearing the old man's words, Duan Lingtian laughed as though he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Isn't that the case?"
The last old man scoffed. His eyes gleamed coldly as he looked at Duan Lingtian as though he was about to devour him.
"If we don't consider the despicable actions of the Gold-Devouring Organization … You're right."
Duan Lingtian nodded and said meaningfully.
"If that's the case, why did you kill our people? Do you think the Gold-Devouring Organization is a pushover? "
The old man asked in a deep voice. His voice was cold as though it came from an ice cave.
"When I killed him, I didn't know what the Gold-Devouring Organization was at all … Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Duan Lingtian replied in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing as he stared deeply at the old man.
"You … You're seeking death!"
Duan Lingtian's casual attitude completely enraged the three old men. After the three old men looked at each other, they shouted in unison.
At the same time, the Origin Energy on their bodies skyrocketed. Their Concepts followed like shadows as their bodies flashed. It was as though they had transformed into three swift lightning bolts that shot toward Duan Lingtian in a menacing manner.
The moment the three of them made their move, they used all their strength to attack Duan Lingtian's vital points. It was obvious they wanted to kill Duan Lingtian in one hit!
Duan Lingtian stood there quietly in the face of the three men's attacks. He did not make any move at all.
His expression was still calm, and there was no sign of panic at all.
'Is he scared out of his wits?'
This was what most of the onlookers thought.
"Sigh."
The old man who had warned Duan Lingtian earlier could not help but sigh when he saw the scene before his eyes.
If this young man had listened to him and left this place, how would he have ended up in such a state?
However, in the next moment, the old man's eyes narrowed abruptly as though he had seen something unbelievable. A hint of horror could be vaguely seen on his face.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort reverberated in the air like a clap of thunder. It shocked many of the onlookers, causing their blood to boil.
Whoosh!
At the same time, most of the onlookers only heard the sound of a sword whistling in the air.
In the next moment, they saw a neat sword mark on the throats of the three old men who had charged toward the purple-clad young man in a menacing manner. It was as though they had been slashed by a sword.
The three neat sword marks continued to expand as dazzling blood spurted out. The three old men's eyes finally dimmed as they lost control of their bodies and were sent flying by inertia.
They continued to charge toward Duan Lingtian …
Whoosh!
At this moment, a ghostly figure appeared in front of Duan Lingtian as though he could predict the future. Then, he raised the sword in his hand and waved it.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
A series of deafening sword whistling sounds reverberated in the air.
In the next moment, under the watchful eyes of the onlookers, the bodies of the three old men were enveloped by the crisscrossing sword radiance. It was as though they had been engulfed by a sword net and had nowhere to escape to.
In the next moment, the three old men disappeared and only blood was left in the air.
Boom!
Right at this moment, at the same time that the three foot long blade condensed from Origin Energy in the hand of the figure that appeared before Duan Ling Tian collapsed, he clenched his hand into a fist and smashed out a punch that descended into the air.
Suddenly, a thunderous sound reverberated in the air as waves of invisible air waves surged out.
The air waves swept out and set off gusts of wind, blowing away the blood that had splattered all over the sky. Not only did the blood not stain Duan Lingtian's body, but it also did not stain the person standing in front of Duan Lingtian.
Silence.
The scene was dead silent.
At the same time, everyone's eyes landed on Duan Lingtian. To be more precise, they were looking at the figure standing in front of Duan Lingtian.
From the moment this person made his move until now, he was as fast as lightning. He did not even have the time to stir the Heaven and Earth Energy, let alone gather the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon.
"Three pieces of trash dare to attack my Young Master? You're seeking death! "
Judging by the voice …
The person standing in front of Duan Lingtian was none other than Xiong Quan.
Apart from his cultivation base breaking through to the First Level Martial Monarch Stage, Xiong Quan had also further comprehended the Sword Dao in the word 'Sword' left behind by Sword Saint Feng Qingyang.
Currently, he had already comprehended the Third Level Monarch Stage Sword Profundity.
With his strength, it was easy for him to kill three martial artists at the peak of the Void who had not even broken through to the Martial Monarch Stage.
In fact, he had indeed done it.
He had killed the three Guardians of the Gold-Devouring Organization in just one move!
There were a total of ten Guardians in the Gold-Devouring Organization. All of them were martial artists at the peak of the Void. Naturally, these three people were no exception.
From the moment he made his move until the moment he killed the three people, not only did Xiong Quan not mobilize the Heaven and Earth Energy to gather the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon, but even the three Guardians of the Gold-Devouring Organization did not have the time to mobilize the Heaven and Earth Energy.
Xiong Quan's speed was too fast!
It was ridiculously fast!
"A Martial Monarch powerhouse!"
Soon after, some people reacted and exclaimed in surprise.
At once, Xiong Quan became the center of attention.
However, soon after, everyone's eyes landed on Duan Lingtian without exception. This was because they recalled what Xiong Quan had said earlier.
"This Martial Monarch powerhouse addressed this purple-clad young man as Young Master?"
"Oh my god! A Martial Monarch powerhouse as his follower … Who's this purple-clad young man? "
"If I'm not mistaken, his background is definitely at the level of a first-rate force."
…
Many people began to discuss among themselves. When they looked at Duan Lingtian again, the way they looked at him was completely different.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian had become extremely mysterious in their eyes. As for Duan Lingtian's previous actions, they no longer thought much of it.
Run!
The moment the middle-aged man who had deceived Duan Lingtian and the other two people regained his senses, he did not dare to delay any longer. With a flash of his body, he quickly fled in a hurry.
At this moment, he only hoped to leave this place as soon as possible.
If that was the case, he might still be able to survive.
However, would he be able to escape?
The answer was no.
"Trying to escape?"
Whoosh!
As Xiong Quan raised his hand, a consolidated sword ray swept past and pierced through the back of the middle-aged man who was fleeing. It easily killed him.
"Xiong Quan, you've actually comprehended the Third Level Sword Profundity?"
This time, Duan Lingtian could finally see the extraordinariness of the Sword Profundity that emanated from Xiong Quan's Origin Energy. He could not help but ask in surprise, "When did you comprehend it?"
"Hehe."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's question, Xiong Quan chuckled. "I just comprehended it a while ago."
While Duan Lingtian and Xiong Quan were chatting, the way the people looked at Duan Lingtian changed constantly. Most of them were curious about Duan Lingtian's identity.
"The three Guardians are dead … Return and report to the leader! There's a Martial Monarch powerhouse! "
