Under the lead of the Ling Tian Sect's elder, Duan Lingtian saw a figure standing in the distance not long after.
The figure stood there straight like a javelin, and it revealed a proud and aloof aura.
It was a familiar face, but after so many years, it had become much older.
The frivolity of the past was no longer there, and it was replaced by restraint and steadiness. It was as if he was a completely different person.
"You bastard, why are you here?"
Before Duan Lingtian arrived, he had already greeted the familiar figure in the distance with a brilliant and gentle smile on his face.
The familiar figure before him was none other than Chen Shao Shuai!
When he was still in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, the Sword Young Master, Chen Shao Shuai, was very fond of him, and they could be considered to be friends.
After so many years, Duan Lingtian was rather happy to see him again.
Of course, at the same time, he could not help but be shocked by Chen Shao Shuai's appearance here.
This was the Inner Land of Cloud Continent.
"Even you can appear here, why can't I?"
A fierce aura tore through the sky, and in the blink of an eye, Chen Shao Shuai vanished on the spot. When he appeared again, he was already in front of Duan Lingtian. "Duan Lingtian, long time no see."
"It has indeed been a long time … However, I never imagined that the fellow who didn't even manage to obtain a spot in the Dynasty Martial Competition all those years ago would actually appear in the Inner Land now. I presume he possesses a shocking cultivation as well."
Duan Lingtian spoke slowly, and as he finished speaking, his face was filled with surprise.
"I just had a fortuitous encounter … I originally thought that I'd already left a freak like you in the dust, and I was even proud of it a few times. However, I didn't expect that you're still stronger than me like before. "
Chen Shao Shuai sized up Duan Lingtian, and as he finished speaking, he could not help but sigh.
"Looks like your fortuitous encounter is not small … You're already at the Third Level Martial Monarch Stage."
Duan Lingtian took a deep look at Chen Shao Shuai as he spoke.
Earlier, when he extended his Spiritual Energy, he immediately detected Chen Shao Shuai's current cultivation base. It was at the Third Level Martial Monarch Stage.
He was quite shocked by this.
"As expected of the Duan Lingtian. You were able to see through my cultivation with just one look."
Chen Shao Shuai sighed. He did not seem to be too surprised. "However, so what if he's at Lv 3 Martial Royal Realm? Isn't he still inferior to you? Not only are you the 'dream lover' of almost all the women in this area, you're also the leader of a first-rate force, the 'Ling Tian Sect'! "
"I heard you killed Yang Hong, the former Peak Master of Yang Peak of the Yin Yang Sect … As far as I know, Yang Hong could be considered as one of the top figures among Eighth Level Martial Monarch Stage martial artists."
As he spoke, Chen Shao Shuai looked at Duan Lingtian with a complicated gaze.
All those years ago, when he was still in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, Duan Lingtian was a complete monster and freak in his eyes!
After they parted ways in the Darkstone Empire, he had gone through a lot of hardships. After that, he had a fortuitous encounter that allowed him to skyrocket and wander all the way. In the end, he even crossed the Ruo Shui River and came to the central area of the Cloud Continent, which was the Inner Land.
Initially, he thought he had already left Duan Lingtian far behind.
Who would have thought that a piece of news would come and completely shocked him.
Ling Tian Sect!
Duan Lingtian!
In the beginning, he thought the Sect Leader of Ling Tian Sect, Duan Lingtian, was just a powerhouse who had the same name as the monster he knew in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
However, his intuition told him that this Duan Lingtian was very likely to be the monster he knew.
That was why he came to verify the doubts in his heart.
As it turned out, his intuition was right.
The Sect Leader of Ling Tian Sect, Duan Lingtian, was a friend he had made in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
"You're quite well-informed."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land caused his mood to be extremely good.
"Do I even need to be well-informed about this?"
Chen Shao Shuai rolled his eyes at Duan Lingtian. "You're a famous person in your surroundings now … I heard that there are many unmarried girls that intend to enter your Ling Tian Sect."
"As for their objective, I presume you don't need me to tell you … They have an ulterior motive."
As he finished speaking, a wisp of an evil smile appeared on Chen Shao Shuai's face.
"Right, you and Luo Zhan left together that day … You two separated later on?"
Duan Lingtian completely disregarded Chen Shao Shuai's words and changed the topic.
It was Duan Lingtian's words that caused Chen Shao Shuai's body to shake, and his expression became even more unsightly.
"What?"
Duan Lingtian's expression became serious, and a bad premonition faintly arose in his heart.
"Luo Zhan is dead!"
Finally, Chen Shao Shuai spoke with a depressed and low tone.
Dead!
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed as horror dawned on his face. "What's going on? How did he die? "
Luo Zhan was Crazy Young Master, the leader of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Five Great Young Masters. He had a good relationship with him, and he was also the grandson of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom's Weapons Craftsmen Guild's Guild Master who had helped him many times.
It was hard for him to imagine.
If the old man found out about Luo Zhan's death, how painful would he be?
"It's all my fault."
Unknowingly, two streams of tears fell from Chen Shao Shuai's face, and his body was still trembling. "That year, Luo Zhan and I traveled together all the way to the north … We passed by the Darkhan Dynasty and the Darming Dynasty before we finally arrived at the northern desert.
After we left the northern desert, we continued to move forward … Later on, by chance, we came across the secret treasure left behind by an Emperor Wu powerhouse, and we successfully entered it.
"We obtained a lot of fortuitous encounters in there. We obtained many Spirit Fruits, Concept Fragments, and Profundity Fragments. We even encountered the Profound Assimilation Formation more than ten times," Duan Ling Tian said.
However, just when we were about to leave, we accidentally triggered the last Inscription Formation left behind by an Emperor Wu powerhouse. It was a Killing Formation!
"Luo Zhan noticed the killing formation first and pushed me out of the area enveloped by the killing formation in time to help me escape calamity … Whereas he missed the opportunity to escape because of this and was killed by the killing formation!"
When Chen Shao Shuai reached this point, his face turned slightly ferocious. "If he didn't save me, he wouldn't have to die … He wouldn't have to die!"
"Luo Zhan."
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.
According to the Sword Young Master, Chen Shao Shuai, if Luo Zhan did not die, his current achievements would not be inferior to his.
"You don't have to be too sad … Since Luo Zhan saved you, you should live on for him."
Duan Lingtian looked at Chen Shao Shuai who had a pained expression on his face and said.
"I know … That's why I'll live on and do the things that he wanted to do but couldn't do anymore. In this way, I'm sure his soul in heaven will be comforted. "
Chen Shao Shuai nodded, and his agitated emotions calmed down a little.
"What's your plan now?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"I don't know … I just came to the Inner Land not too long ago."
Chen Shao Shuai shook his head.
"Why don't you stay in my Ling Tian Sect? I'll make you an 'elder'? "
Duan Lingtian said with a smile.
"An elder in the Ling Tian Sect?"
When Chen Shao Shuai heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. "That sounds interesting … Alright! I'll stay in your Ling Tian Sect for the time being then. "
"You can stay in the Ling Tian Sect if you want … However, I have to make a promise with you."
Duan Lingtian looked at Chen Shao Shuai cautiously.
He still remembered.
When Chen Shao Shuai was still in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, he would hang around brothels all day long. It could be said that he would not be happy without a woman.
Half of the disciples in the Ling Tian Sect were female.
He did not want Chen Shao Shuai to do anything that would bring shame to his Ling Tian Sect.
"How do we make a three-point agreement?"
Chen Shao Shuai was stunned and could not react for a moment.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian spoke. His face was filled with a wry smile as he rolled his eyes at Duan Lingtian. "No matter how much I want women, I won't mess around in the Ling Tian Sect … Even if I don't care about my own reputation, I still have to care about your reputation."
"It's good that you think that way."
Duan Lingtian nodded in satisfaction.
"Let's go. I'll introduce you to a few people."
After calling out to Chen Shao Shuai, Duan Lingtian brought him to meet Feng Tianwu, Xiong Quan, and the Gold Thug.
It was worth mentioning that after Chen Shao Shuai saw Feng Tianwu, he stared at her for more than ten breaths. This was because Feng Tianwu was just too outstanding. Her peerless appearance could be said to be devastatingly beautiful.
He only retracted his gaze when he noticed that Feng Tianwu's eyes were still on Duan Lingtian.
"So, she's Duan Lingtian's woman."
Chen Shao Shuai's heart was filled with envy.
"I'll bring him to see Luo Ping."
Duan Lingtian bade farewell to Feng Tianwu and the other two before bringing Chen Shao Shuai away to look for Luo Ping.
Although Luo Ping was only one of the three Deputy Sect Leaders in the Ling Tian Sect, she was undoubtedly Duan Lingtian's most trusted Deputy Sect Leader. She was in charge of all the matters in the Ling Tian Sect, no matter how big or small.
She was the only Deputy Sect Leader who could represent Duan Lingtian.
After leaving Chen Shao Shuai with Luo Ping, Duan Lingtian returned to Feng Tianwu and the other two. He looked at Xiong Quan and the Gold Thug immediately. "Both of you, announce that the Ling Tian Sect is recruiting grade one Weapon Craftsmen and Alchemists."
"Yes, Young Master."
"Yes, Master."
Xiong Quan and the Gold Thug responded and left.
"If that's the case, I'm afraid none of the grade one Weapon Craftsmen and Alchemists will be willing to come."
After Xiong Quan and the Gold Thug left, the frost on Feng Tianwu's face melted a little. She told Duan Lingtian softly.
"I know … That's why we have more important matters to attend to now."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"More important matters?"
Although Feng Tianwu had a puzzled expression on her face, her heart was filled with joy because of Duan Lingtian's last sentence.
He had more important matters to attend to with her.
It was enough to show that she had a high place in Duan Lingtian's heart.
"You'll find out soon enough."
Duan Lingtian smiled and kept her in suspense. He then left the Ling Tian Peak and the Ling Tian Sect with Feng Tianwu.
