"Damn it! Apart from that crazy Duan Lingtian, there's actually someone who's more powerful than me in the area governed by the Moon Illumination Sect! "
In the outer court's stone house district, Xiao Zhui's expression was extremely grave when he heard about Ye Man's rumor.
When Xiao Zhui was in Luo Jiang City, he was the strongest powerhouse among the younger generation in the area around Luo Jiang City. However, he had been defeated again and again ever since he came to the Moon Illumination Sect.
First, Duan Lingtian appeared and defeated him before the entrance assessment of the Moon Illumination Sect began. He was filled with resentment.
When he entered the Moon Illumination Sect and realized Duan Lingtian's strength had far exceeded his imagination, the resentment in his heart disappeared.
What a joke!
Duan Lingtian had defeated two famous outer court people consecutively as soon as he entered the Moon Illumination Sect. His strength was not something he could compare to at all.
It was not an injustice for him to be defeated by such a person.
However, at this moment, Ye Man, who had appeared out of nowhere, had suppressed him once again. This caused the unwillingness in his heart to rise once again. Moreover, it was even more intense.
"Hurmph! When I break through to the Saint Rudiment Stage and enter the inner court as an inner court disciple, I'll be able to seek an audience with Elder Liu Huan … I'm sure Elder Liu Huan will take care of me for the sake of my master. "
Xiao Zhui snorted. "At that time, I'll definitely trample you, Ye Man, under my feet!
As for Duan Lingtian, it's still unknown whether he'll be able to enter the inner court alive or not. "
Although Xiao Zhui was fearful when he thought about Duan Lingtian, he still smirked at this moment.
Someone had issued a Death Duel invitation to Duan Lingtian and challenged him to a Death Duel … When he first learned about this, the first thought that appeared in his mind was that Elder Liu Huan's people had made a move.
As the disciple of Luo Yi, the City Governor of Luo Jiang City, he was Liu Huan's follower when he was still an inner court disciple.
For this reason, Xiao Zhui knew about the enmity between Liu Huan and Fang Hui, the City Governor of Mound Hill City.
"Duan Lingtian, you really don't know what's good for you … How dare you reject Elder Liu Huan's kindness!"
Xiao Zhui sneered.
The reason why he said this was because he felt that Elder Liu Huan must have wanted to take Duan Lingtian as a disciple, but was rejected by Duan Lingtian. That was why Elder Liu Huan had set a trap for Duan Lingtian.
However, he did not know.
From the beginning until the end, Liu Huan had never heard of anything related to Duan Lingtian. He did not even know that Duan Lingtian existed.
Currently, Liu Huan did not even take a single step out of his mansion. He was fully focused on cultivating his direct disciple, Su Qi, whom he had high hopes for.
As for the other direct disciple, Zhou Qi, he seemed to have forgotten about him.
Late at night, in a room in one of the independent courtyards.
The two young men stood facing each other.
"Senior Brother Qi … this time, even if that Duan Lingtian didn't accept my invitation to a duel to the death, I will still cripple him! At that time, with my master around, I'm sure I'll be safe. "
Feng Fan looked at Zhou Qi and said with a smile, "If he dares to accept my invitation to a duel to the death, the day he accepts it will be the day he dies!"
"Junior Brother Fan, I can't thank you enough for your kindness."
Zhou Qi cupped his hands together and thanked him.
Although Feng Fan was only an outer court disciple, Zhou Qi did not have any intention of looking down on him.
It was not only because Feng Fan was an Earth Ranking powerhouse, but more importantly, Feng Fan's master was also an inner court elder in the Moon Illumination Sect. In terms of position in the inner court, Feng Fan's master was even higher than his master, Liu Huan.
In front of Feng Fan's master, even his master, Liu Huan, would have to address him as Senior Brother respectfully.
Naturally, not many people in the Moon Illumination Sect knew that Feng Fan had an inner court elder as his master.
Nobody in the outer court knew about it.
Even those outer court elders and deacons did not know that Feng Fan had an inner court elder as his master with a lofty position.
If they knew, they would know the reason why Feng Fan refused to acknowledge them as his master.
What a joke!
If he already had an inner court elder as his master with a lofty position in the sect, why would he care about an outer court elder, let alone an outer court deacon whose position was only slightly higher than an ordinary inner court disciple?
The reason Feng Fan's master did not expose Feng Fan's identity for the time being was because he wanted to train Feng Fan.
"Senior Brother Qi, there's no need for both of you to thank me. Back then, when I was training outside, if it wasn't for your help, I'm afraid I would have died long ago … You've saved my life, so doing such a small thing for you is as easy as lifting a finger, it's not worth mentioning. "
Feng Fan shook his head.
Upon hearing Feng Fan's words, a hypocritical smile appeared on Zhou Qi's face. "No matter what, I'll definitely treat you to a good drink after this matter is over, Junior Brother Fan."
"Haha … Then I'll wait for your treat, Senior Brother Qi."
Feng Fan laughed out loud.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Qi bade farewell to Feng Fan and left. His figure entered the night sky and quietly left the outer court district. He returned to the mansion where his master, Liu Huan, lived in the inner court district.
"I can't believe that the plan I made on the spur of the moment back then actually came in handy at such a critical moment … Until now, Feng Fan is still grateful to me."
After Zhou Qi returned to his small courtyard, he had a smug expression on his face.
That year, when he saw Feng Fan going out to train, he intentionally lured a wild beast whose strength was far more powerful than Feng Fan and made it attack Feng Fan … When Feng Fan was at the brink of death, he made a move and killed the wild beast to save Feng Fan.
It was precisely because of this that Feng Fan was grateful to him and treated him as his savior.
Until now, Feng Fan still did not know that he was the one who lured the wild beast over.
"With Feng Fan making a move, that Duan Lingtian would've been crippled even if he didn't die! At that time, even if Master finds out about his existence and takes his anger out on me, he'll at most give me a light punishment … It's impossible for him to become Master's disciple and suppress me! "
In Zhou Qi's opinion, this was a good deal.
However, from the beginning until the end, Zhou Qi seemed to have confirmed one thing subjectively … If his master, the inner court elder, Liu Huan, wanted to take Duan Lingtian as his direct disciple, Duan Lingtian would definitely agree.
It had never crossed his mind that Duan Lingtian would reject him.
This was because he thought of it from his own perspective.
If he was Duan Lingtian, he would definitely not reject him.
Moreover, if the Sect Leader of the Moon Illumination Sect wanted to take him in as his disciple, he would betray his master without any hesitation and join the Sect Leader of the Moon Illumination Sect.
To him, as long as there was someone who could help him, that person would be his mother.
Time continued to pass by quietly.
When Duan Lingtian walked out of his room with a flushed face, it had already been two months since he came to the Moon Illumination Sect.
"Huh? Another battle invitation? "
As soon as Duan Lingtian opened the door, a soft voice resonated in his ears. He casually reached out and grabbed the special piece of paper that floated to the ground.
"Look! Senior Brother Duan Lingtian has come out of closed-door cultivation! "
"He's finally out of closed-door cultivation … I've waited for 20 days."
"Pfft! You've only waited for 20 days, but I've waited for 22 days. "
"22 days is nothing! I've been waiting here since the day Senior Brother Feng Fan sent out the battle invitation. "
…
Duan Lingtian merely glanced at the special piece of paper in his hand and confirmed it was a battle invitation. Before he could take a closer look, a series of noises resonated in his ears.
"Among the newly opened Saint Veins, there seems to be a Saint Vein that connects to both of my ears … My hearing is a few times stronger than before. I can actually hear their discussion clearly even though they're so far away. "
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up right away as an excited smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Huh?"
However, the smile on the corner of Duan Lingtian's mouth froze again very soon.
Not only that, but he could not help but frown as well.
All of this was because he heard the outer court disciples outside mentioning the Death Duel invitation … Moreover, they seemed to be talking about the battle invitation in his hand.
"Death Duel invitation?"
When Duan Lingtian opened the battle invitation in his hand, he discovered it was indeed a Death Duel invitation.
There were already three fingerprints on it.
"Feng Fan?"
When Duan Lingtian saw the name of the person who sent him the Death Duel invitation, the frown on his face deepened. "He's from Liu Huan's faction?"
At this moment, Duan Lingtian finally figured out what was going on from the conversation of the group of outer court disciples outside.
"Feng Fan, the outer court disciple whose strength is ranked fifth in the outer court? He's ranked 99th in the Earth Ranking? In terms of strength, he's comparable to an Early Saint Rudiment Stage powerhouse? "
At this moment, Duan Lingtian had a certain understanding of the person who sent him the challenge.
"I can't believe there's such a person in Liu Huan's faction."
A cold gleam flashed in Duan Lingtian's eyes as he sneered.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian strode out of the independent courtyard and exposed himself to the group of outer court disciples in the distance. He successfully attracted everyone's attention.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Duan Lingtian picked up the Death Duel invitation.
"Senior Brother Duan Lingtian … Is he going to tear the battle invitation?"
"Just as I expected, Senior Brother Duan Lingtian doesn't dare to accept the challenge."
"That's a Death Duel invitation. Do you dare to accept it? Moreover, with Senior Brother Duan Lingtian's current age, there's no need for him to compete with an Earth Ranking powerhouse like Senior Brother Feng Fan. "
…
Many outer court disciples whispered among themselves. They thought Duan Lingtian was going to tear the battle invitation and reject Feng Fan's Death Duel invitation.
Due to the newly opened Saint Veins that connected both of his ears, although Duan Lingtian's hearing had not reached the level of Clairaudient, he could still hear the whispers of the group of outer court disciples.
'Reject?'
Duan Lingtian sneered in his heart.
If it was a month ago, he might have really rejected it.
However, now …
In the next moment, the group of outer court disciples who were whispering among themselves were completely dumbfounded when they saw Duan Lingtian's action.
They saw to their shock that when Duan Ling Tian raised his hand, not only did he not tear off the life and death battle invitation, he even left his fingerprint on it …
His actions were as smooth as flowing water.
