"Who are you?"
Zheng Lin, who was being held in the middle-aged man's hand, was scared out of his wits. He did not manage to run far before he was captured by this person without any ability to fight back.
This person's strength was far stronger than his. He was at least at the peak of the Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage!
However, the middle-aged man ignored him. Instead, he looked at Duan Lingtian and smiled. "Duan Lingtian, I'll leave him to you."
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, he tossed Zheng Lin toward Duan Lingtian.
Zheng Lin was freed from the restraints after being tossed out by the middle-aged man. He wanted to use the same trick to escape again.
However, could he escape?
Whoosh!
As an unpleasant sound reverberated in the air, a solidified True Energy light blade swept out and sliced Zheng Lin's neck effortlessly, cutting his head off.
The Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator who was still alive and kicking just a moment ago was now dead without any chance of turning the tables.
Zheng Lin's head rolled to the side of the wall, leaving a glaring trail of blood along the way. He stood by the wall with his eyes wide open. There was only horror in his eyes.
Gasp!
Hong Yu, who had rushed over, gasped when he saw this. At the same time, he also noticed the other two severed bodies.
"Brother Ling Tian, are you alright?"
Hong Yu looked at Duan Lingtian worriedly. If something happened to his brother in his house, he would not be able to rest in peace for the rest of his life.
"I'm fine."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled at Hong Yu. He then looked at the middle-aged man who was smiling at him. "Thank you for your help, Senior. May I know who you are? "
"No wonder Lord City Governor values you so much. You're indeed extraordinary."
The middle-aged man smiled.
"Y-You're Teacher's man?"
Duan Lingtian was shocked. Then, a thought flashed in his mind as he asked curiously, "Senior, are you one of Teacher's 36 Guardians?"
Duan Lingtian did not activate his Divine Eye in front of the middle-aged man. This was because he felt like he was facing his teacher and the Heavenly Leader Guardian.
Whether it was his teacher or the Heavenly Leader Guardian, they were both Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouses.
"You're smart."
The middle-aged man smiled. "I'm ranked second among the thirty-six personal guards under the City Lord."
"Heavenly Dipper Guards?"
Duan Lingtian gasped. He didn't expect that he'd really guessed correctly. This person really was one of the 36 personal guards under his teacher's command, and he was the second ranked Heavenly Strength Guard.
Of the 36 Big Dipper Stars, Big Dipper was ranked first, and Big Dipper was ranked second.
"I've already sent a message to the City Lord about what happened here … No one from the Zheng family of New South Town can escape."
The Heavenly Strength Guard said indifferently, as if he was talking about something unimportant.
As far as he was concerned, annihilating the Zheng Clan couldn't be any easier. He only needed to make a move, and he would be able to topple the entire Zheng Clan and make it so that the Zheng Clan would never be able to rise again.
"To be able to force a Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator to flee … I'm afraid even Lord City Governor doesn't know you have this ability, right?"
The Heavenly Strength Guard sized up Duan Lingtian with great interest.
Not long after Duan Lingtian entered the City Governor's Estate of Mound Hill City, he had already heard about Duan Lingtian. In the beginning, he did not think much of him, but he had no choice but to take him seriously in the end.
A few days ago, when Duan Lingtian left the City Governor's Estate, the City Lord had personally ordered him to protect Duan Lingtian secretly.
At that moment, he finally realized how important Duan Lingtian was to the City Lord City Governor.
From the beginning until the end, the Heavenly Strength Guard who was hiding in the air to protect Duan Lingtian had seen everything.
Initially, he thought he would have to make a move. However, it had never crossed his mind that Duan Ling Tian would be able to kill two people from the Zheng Clan on his own and force a Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage Martial Cultivator from the Zheng Clan to flee.
He knew very well that Duan Lingtian would definitely be able to catch up with Zheng Lin.
The reason he made a move was because he wanted to meet Duan Lingtian face to face. This young genius who would take the initiative to join the Moon Illumination Sect in half a year's time was even more dazzling than Su Qi.
"S-Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage?"
Upon hearing the Heavenly Strength Guard's words, Hong Yu who was stunned by the Heavenly Strength Guard's identity could not help but exclaim out loud. His gaze then landed on Zheng Lin's head.
"T-this is a Martial Cultivator on the Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage?"
Hong Yu's heart was filled with shock. When he looked at Duan Lingtian again, disbelief was written all over his face.
"He's just a Martial Cultivator who has just broken through to the Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage. His foundation is not stable yet. If it weren't for that, I might not be a match for him. "
Duan Lingtian said as he shook his head. Naturally, Hong Yu and the Heavenly Strength Guard saw his words as' humble '.
"Greetings, Lord Heavenly Strength Guard! I'm Hong Yu, the City Guard's captain!"
At that moment, Hong Yu suppressed the shock in his heart and bowed at the Heavenly Strength Guard.
"You're Hong Yu from the City Guard? I've heard of you … You're really not bad. "
After secretly protecting Duan Lingtian for a few days, the Heavenly Strength Guard also knew that Duan Lingtian and Hong Yu were close. Therefore, he was very polite to Hong Yu.
He knew that Duan Lingtian was destined to leave Mound Hill City. His future achievements would definitely not be inferior to the Master City Governor.
Therefore, he naturally did not dare to neglect Duan Lingtian's friend.
Whoosh!
As the Heavenly Strength Guard waved his hand, the three bodies on the ground were put away by him. He bade farewell to Duan Ling Tian and nodded at Hong Yu before he left.
At that moment, Duan Lingtian and Hong Yu were the only ones left in the room that was filled with blood and the doors and windows were destroyed.
Hong Yu looked at Duan Lingtian with a complicated gaze.
Although he knew Duan Lingtian was a rare genius Martial Cultivator, he did not expect him to be so powerful … Even a Martial Cultivator on the Paramount Mortal Shedding Stage was no match for him.
"Big Brother Hong, I'll have to trouble you to clean up here."
Duan Lingtian glanced at the room and said a little awkwardly.
"It's alright. I'll bring you to another guest room first … As for this place, I'll get the servant to clean it up later. "
Hong Yu returned to his senses and shook his head. Subsequently, he helped Duan Lingtian to another guest room.
His feelings were very complicated from the beginning until the end.
What did Hong Yu do to deserve such a brother?
At that moment, a ridiculous thought rose in his mind. 'Should I go to his family's ancestral grave to see if there's smoke coming out of it?'
Otherwise, how could he, Hong Yu, have such a great opportunity?
What happened tonight was just a small episode to Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian knew very well that the Zheng family of New South Town intended to kill him. It would be fine if they succeeded, but if they did not, it would mean that they would be annihilated.
Duan Lingtian did not care about that at all.
This was the law of the world where the strong ruled. The weak were prey to the strong, and only the fittest survived.
Since he was a rat, he should stay in his rat's nest obediently. If he tried to pull the whiskers of a cat, he was destined to die.
In the middle of the night, two figures appeared in the sky above the City Governor's Mansion of Mound Hill City.
After leaving the City Governor's Mansion, they flew all the way.
Half an hour later, they stood still in the sky above a vast town.
"New South Town?"
As the two figures descended from the sky, a huge mansion at the foot of the town stirred up a storm of blood … The Zheng family of New South Town was annihilated just like that.
Before dawn, everyone in New South Town had woken up from their sleep.
More than half of New South Town was filled with the thick smell of blood.
"Oh my god! Who did the Zheng family offend? Their entire family was annihilated overnight! "
The people of New South Town gasped when they found out that no one from the Zheng family was left alive.
After staying in Hong Yu's house for a few more days, Duan Lingtian left and returned to the City Governor's Mansion directly.
After returning to the City Governor's Mansion, he did not return to the mansion where the City Governor of Mound Hill City stayed. Instead, he returned to the Latent Dragon Camp to inform Guo Li.
He planned to stay at the City Governor's place to cultivate for a period of time until the day of the entrance assessment of the Moon Illumination Sect.
"Duan Lingtian!"
As soon as Duan Lingtian entered the Latent Dragon Camp, he heard someone calling out to him.
"Zhu Lang?"
The person who called out to him was Zhu Lang.
"Haha … Duan Lingtian, have you heard? The Zheng family of New South Town has been annihilated! How delightful! "
Zhu Lang was beaming. He seemed to be in a good mood.
"New South Town's Zheng family? Zheng Jian's family? "
Duan Lingtian asked.
Although he knew what was going on, he could not help but feel shocked. His teacher's actions were too fast, right?
Duan Lingtian had no idea.
His teacher was enraged when he found out that the Zheng family of New South Town wanted to kill him. He immediately ordered the Heavenly Leader Guardian and a Saint Rudiment Revered Elder to head to New South Town to annihilate the Zheng family.
As the City Governor of Mound Hill City, how could he swallow his anger when he was provoked by someone from a ninth-rate clan in the surrounding area of Mound Hill City?
"Duan Lingtian, with your innate talent, it's only a matter of time before you enter the Moon Illumination Sect … I wonder when we'll meet again after you leave."
Guo Li could not help but sigh when she was called out by Duan Lingtian and found out that Duan Lingtian would not be staying in the Latent Dragon Camp for the next six months.
She had entered the City Governor's Estate of Mound Hill City together with Duan Lingtian.
Currently, Duan Lingtian was about to enter a seventh-rate force, but she still had to stay in this eighth-rate force.
"I'll come back to visit you and my teacher when I'm free … Moreover, you might be able to enter the Moon Illumination Sect in the future."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
This time, he also had the intention of saying goodbye to Guo Li.
After all, it would be a rush if he left in half a year.
He did not know if Guo Li would be in closed-door cultivation at that time … Therefore, it was better to bid farewell in advance.
Even today, Duan Lingtian only wanted to try his luck. If Guo Li was in closed-door cultivation, he could only look for her next time.
After all, he was not here to challenge Guo Li.
If he was here to challenge Guo Li, naturally, it did not matter if she was in closed-door cultivation or not.
Guo Li's gaze was extremely complicated as she watched Duan Lingtian's silhouette leaving. She muttered to herself, 'Guo Li, a man like him is not someone you're worthy of …'
It was apparent that Guo Li had fallen in love with Duan Lingtian whom she had only known for a few months.
However, this feeling was hidden by her.
She could tell that Duan Lingtian only treated her as a good friend and did not have any other intentions.
If she rashly broke the ice, they might not be able to be friends in the future.
