"It's me."
At the same time, a calm voice resonated from outside. This voice was not unfamiliar to Duan Lingtian.
"Zhou Qi?"
Duan Lingtian recognized the owner of the voice, and his face turned grave immediately.
He took two steps forward and opened the door. Looking at Zhou Qi who was outside, Duan Lingtian's eyes were cold as he asked nonchalantly, "How dare you barge into someone else's residence without even informing me … Didn't your master, Liu Huan, teach you the rules?"
Duan Lingtian was not afraid that Zhou Qi would dare to make a move here.
The Moon Illumination Sect had a rule that unless there was a reason and the inner court disciple was in the right, inner court disciples were not allowed to bully outer court disciples in the outer court area. Those who violated the rule would be severely punished.
If it had been before, Zhou Qi would have been enraged when he heard Duan Lingtian's words.
However, he looked calm at this moment. It seemed like he was not angry at Duan Lingtian's words at all.
Zhou Qi's calmness surprised Duan Lingtian.
Theoretically, Zhou Qi should not be such a good-tempered person.
Theoretically, as a member of the inner court's Elder Liu Huan's line and Liu Huan's direct disciple, Zhou Qi should have wanted to kill him as soon as possible.
Moreover, the way Zhou Qi looked at him when he was in the training field today was as if he wanted to kill him.
How did he change so much in just half a day?
Something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary!
Duan Ling Tian couldn't help but become slightly vigilant in his heart.
"Let's talk inside," Zhou Qi said.
Without waiting for Duan Lingtian to speak, he had already walked into Duan Lingtian's room.
Duan Lingtian frowned, but he relaxed in the end. He turned around to look at Zhou Qi and asked nonchalantly, "Why are you looking for me?"
"Duan Lingtian, my master, Liu Huan, wants me to take your life in three days!"
Zhou Qi looked at Duan Lingtian and said bluntly.
When Duan Lingtian heard this, his pupils involuntarily shrank. Then, with a calm face, he said, "If you kill me, according to the sect's rules, you will not be able to escape death!"
"My master told me to exchange my life for yours!"
Zhou Qi said.
"Your life in exchange for mine?"
This time, Duan Lingtian was moved.
Although he knew since long ago that the inner court elder, Liu Huan, was not a kind person, he never imagined that he would be so terrifying. He actually wanted to exchange his disciple's life for his own.
What was his disciple worth in his eyes?
Tools?
"Tell me why you've come … Since you've come to tell me all this, I presume you don't want to listen to your master's orders."
Duan Lingtian said calmly.
"The reason I'm here is very simple. I want to remind you that Liu Huan is a madman! I followed him for more than ten years, but when he wanted to abandon me, he didn't even bat an eyelid. "
Zhou Qi said slowly. When he reached the end of his sentence, there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
"He's a madman, but aren't you a madman as well?"
Duan Lingtian sneered.
Eight months ago, Zhou Qi had come to the City Governor's Estate of Mound Hill City in an awe-inspiring manner. The moment he made his move, he had killed two innocent people.
"Duan Lingtian, I didn't come here with the intention of making peace with you … I just want to remind you that Liu Huan is a person who won't stop until he has achieved his goal. As for the reason I'm reminding you, it's because I don't want him to have an easy time in the future. "
Zhou Qi's eyes gleamed coldly as he said hatefully.
"If you don't kill me within three days, how do you plan to explain yourself to him?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"You don't have to worry about that … I've achieved my goal, so it's time for me to leave. No matter how much you hate me, it doesn't matter to me. After all, I did want to kill you before … If Liu Huan didn't ask me to exchange my life for yours, I wouldn't have let you go in the future. "
Zhou Qi said, "However, everything has changed now … I don't hate you. I only hope that you can survive and cause more trouble for Liu Huan."
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes. He realized Zhou Qi no longer regarded Liu Huan as his master.
However, it was normal when he thought about it.
A master who would sacrifice his disciple's life to achieve his goal was not worth it.
"There's one more thing that I must remind you … Feng Fan whom you killed was the only direct disciple of Zhao Feng, the inner court elder of the Moon Illumination Sect. Zhao Feng's strength was ranked in the top three among the inner court elders in the Moon Illumination Sect. "
Zhou Qi continued to remind him.
Feng Fan's master was the inner court elder, Zhao Feng?
Duan Lingtian frowned.
Although he could guess Feng Fan's background was not simple from the family background Feng Fan had shown, it did not cross his mind that he was the direct disciple of an inner court elder.
Moreover, that inner court elder's strength was ranked in the top three among the inner court elders in the Moon Illumination Sect.
"Isn't he from your faction?"
Duan Lingtian asked with a frown. He had always thought Feng Fan was from Liu Huan's faction. However, it seemed like that was not the case.
What a joke!
Someone as powerful as Liu Huan's master, Zhao Feng's position in the Moon Illumination Sect was much higher than Liu Huan's.
It was impossible for such a person to be from Liu Huan's faction.
Even if he was from Liu Huan's faction, he would be Liu Huan's senior. It was impossible for him to let his only direct disciple take such a risk.
"Of course not."
Zhou Qi shook his head. "Even Liu Huan would have to bow and scrape before Elder Zhao Feng … I'm not afraid to tell you that I was the one who instigated Feng Fan to issue you the Death Duel invitation.
However, all of this is not important anymore. What's important is that you've killed Feng Fan. You'll definitely enrage Elder Zhao Feng. "
Zhou Qi said.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian had also learned about the ins and outs of the matter. He was a little surprised by how straightforward Zhou Qi was. "You even told me this … Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Elder Zhao Feng exactly what you said?"
"It's useless even if you tell him. It's an indisputable fact that you're the one who killed him."
Zhou Qi said nonchalantly.
Duan Lingtian was stunned. He was speechless for a moment. After all, what Zhou Qi said was indeed the truth.
Even if Zhao Feng vented his anger on Zhou Qi, it was impossible for him to let him go.
"However, if Elder Zhao Feng comes out of his closed-door cultivation, he might not kill you."
Zhou Qi said again.
"He might not kill me?"
Duan Lingtian frowned. "What do you mean? I've killed his only direct disciple, but he won't kill me? "
"Yes, you've killed his only direct disciple, Feng Fan. He loves Feng Fan very much … However, didn't he take Feng Fan as his disciple because he valued Feng Fan's innate talent? If Feng Fan was just a mediocre person, how could he take him seriously? "
Zhou Qi said, "Therefore, after he finds out that you've killed Feng Fan, there's a high possibility that he won't kill you … Perhaps, he'll want to take you as his new direct disciple. After all, in terms of innate talent, Feng Fan can't compare to you at all. "
"Take me as his direct disciple?"
Duan Lingtian had a strange expression on his face. However, when he thought about it carefully, if Zhao Feng was not a person who valued relationships, he might really do that.
If Zhao Feng really did that, he would definitely look down on Zhao Feng.
If someone he looked down on wanted to take him as his direct disciple, it was only natural that he would not agree to it.
"This is what I want to tell you … If Zhao Feng is determined to kill you to avenge Feng Fan, then it's fine. However, if he wants to take you as his direct disciple, you must agree to it because as long as you become Zhao Feng's disciple, Liu Huan won't dare to harm you under Zhao Feng's nose even if he has a hundred guts. "
Zhou Qi said with a serious expression, "Liu Huan wants me to kill you within three days because he's worried Zhao Feng will come out of closed-door cultivation in advance … He wants to kill you before Zhao Feng comes out of closed-door cultivation so it's impossible for you to become Zhao Feng's direct disciple."
"Moreover, if he kills you before Zhao Feng comes out of closed-door cultivation, he'll be doing Zhao Feng a favor … To him, as long as you're dead, he'll only benefit from it."
Zhou Qi said.
"I must agree to become Zhao Feng's disciple?"
Duan Lingtian sneered. "Zhou Qi, are you making a decision for me?"
"Naturally, you'll make the decision yourself … I'm just giving you a suggestion. After all, both of us have a common enemy, Liu Huan. I hope that you'll be able to survive as well. As long as you grow stronger, you'll definitely become Liu Huan's nightmare. "
When Zhou Qi reached the end of his sentence, his eyes were burning with passion. "At that time, even if I'm not in the Moon Illumination Sect, I'll still be happy to hear about this brat."
"Not in the Moon Illumination Sect? What do you mean? "
Duan Lingtian frowned.
"Do you think I'll still have a place in the Moon Illumination Sect if I don't kill you within three days? Even if Liu Huan doesn't kill me, he'll definitely find ways to target me … He's my master in name. Nobody will say anything even if he cripples or cripples me. "
As Zhou Qi spoke, his body suddenly trembled as though he had thought of something terrifying.
"I've said what I should. I've persuaded what I should … I know it's impossible for us to bury the hatchet. If you manage to survive, you can seek revenge from me in the future. As long as you can find me, I'll accept my death even if it's in your hands. "
Zhou Qi said to Duan Lingtian before he left. His words were extremely straightforward.
"I'll definitely not disappoint you."
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes as a cold gleam flashed across his eyes as he said nonchalantly.
Zhou Qi left. He came suddenly and left quickly.
In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared before Duan Lingtian's eyes and disappeared into the night like a ghost.
"My Spiritual Energy hasn't recovered yet, and it's only been a while, but I feel sleepy again … Looks like I won't be able to do anything for the next few days."
After closing the door, Duan Lingtian sighed and returned to the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda with just a thought.
After Zhou Qi left Duan Lingtian's residence, he left the outer court under the cover of the night.
Not only did he not return to the outer court, but he also headed out of the Moon Illumination Sect's estate instead.
His purpose was very simple. He wanted to leave the Moon Illumination Sect and be as free as a bird in the sky and a fish in the sea!
"With my, Zhou Qi's, cultivation base, I don't believe that there's no place for me in the Nine Sect Alliances' district! In the future, I'll be an unrestrained sectless cultivator and won't have to bow to anyone. "
