"Of course, it's easy to kill you, but I'm very interested in you now … Don't worry, after today, the Mountainshade Black Market will cancel the mission to kill you."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Chi Mei's unhurried reply made Duan Lingtian a little puzzled.
'Don't tell me I'm so charming that this woman has taken a fancy to me?'
When Duan Lingtian thought of this, he felt a chill run down his spine.
Although the woman in front of him had a great figure, who knew what her face looked like under the cover?
Perhaps she was an ugly freak?
However, in the next moment, Duan Lingtian was stunned.
This was because Chi Mei had removed the cover on her face without any warning, revealing her true appearance.
Her shoulder-length black hair cascaded down like a waterfall. Her pair of autumn eyes were like the two brightest stars in the night sky. Her jade-like nose was slightly straight, her small lips were rosy, and her perfect lines outlined a peerless face that was capable of causing the downfall of nations.
On this beautiful face that seemed to have been carefully sculpted, there was not a single flaw to be found. Everything was so perfect.
However, when Duan Lingtian saw Chi Mei's peerless face, it was as though he had seen a ghost. He stood rooted to the ground and was dumbstruck. "You, you …"
When Chi Mei saw the shock on Duan Lingtian's face, a hint of realization flashed in the depths of her eyes.
It seemed like everything was as she had guessed.
He was indeed related to the person she had been looking for. Moreover, their relationship was not shallow. Otherwise, it was impossible for his body to have such a strong aura that belonged to that person.
At this moment, nobody could understand Duan Lingtian's feelings.
Duan Lingtian's emotions were surging, and he could not calm down for a long time. As he looked at Chi Mei, his eyes flashed with bewilderment, reminiscence, and gentleness. His gaze became more and more complicated.
The reason why Duan Lingtian felt this way was because Chi Mei's face was not unfamiliar to him.
Of course, although the face in his memory was almost exactly the same as the face in front of him, it had a bit more of a pretty girl from a humble family.
That's right. The Chi Mei standing before Duan Lingtian now had a devastatingly beautiful face that was identical to Duan Lingtian's fiancée, Kerr.
No matter which part of the face it was, it was exactly the same. There was no difference.
However, although they looked exactly the same, Duan Lingtian had never thought that she was Kerr.
Chi Mei's temperament was completely different from Kerr's.
Kerr's temperament was as gentle as jade, but this Chi Mei's temperament faintly revealed a trace of coldness, exuding an aura that repelled people thousands of miles away.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian wondered if Kerr and the person in front of him were twins.
But in an instant, he suppressed this thought.
This was because it was almost impossible!
Chi Mei was an assassin from the Mountainshade Black Market in the Dao Martial Saint Land. She was a Saint Stage powerhouse.
Kerr, on the other hand, was born in a remote place on the Mortal Continent. She had walked out of Fresh Breeze Town with him. It was impossible for her to be related to Chi Mei.
Moreover, when he first met Kerr, Kerr was planning to sell herself to bury her mother.
He had never heard Kerr mention that her mother was not her biological mother.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Duan Lingtian suppressed the thousands of questions in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
Chi Mei was an assassin from the Mountainshade Black Market, but based on her words, not only did she not want to kill him, but she even wanted the Mountainshade Black Market to cancel the mission to kill him.
This made him vaguely feel that something was not right.
Logically speaking, he had nothing to do with her, so there was no need for her to do this.
There must be something fishy about this!
Duan Lingtian had always believed this.
"What? You're a big man, and you're afraid of a little girl like me? "
Chi Mei asked with a faint smile as the corner of her lips curled up into a perfect arc.
Chi Mei's peerless beauty coupled with her devilish talent was enough to arouse the desire in the depths of any man's heart. However, Duan Lingtian did not have any desire at this moment. Instead, he was on guard.
"I believe you won't dismiss the idea of killing me for no reason, and you even want the Mountainshade Black Market to cancel the mission to kill me."
Duan Lingtian said.
"For no reason? Of course, there's no reason! "
Chi Mei said indifferently, "Before I met you, I, Chi Mei, have never let anyone live when I make a move … You're the first."
"Should I feel honored then?"
Duan Lingtian smiled self-mockingly and asked, "Tell me, what's the reason? Not only did you not make a move on me, but you even want to help me?"
"Reason? What if I say it's because I find you pleasing to the eye? "
Chi Mei smiled.
Chi Mei's words caused Duan Lingtian to feel a chill run down his spine.
Who knew if this woman who did not look older than him was an old witch who had lived for a few hundred years? Perhaps, in terms of seniority, she was old enough to be his grandmother's grandmother.
Fortunately, Chi Mei did not know what Duan Lingtian was thinking. Otherwise, she would have slapped him to death!
"I believe we'll meet again in the future."
Chi Mei took a deep look at Duan Lingtian. Before Duan Lingtian could return to his senses, Chi Mei had already left. She had completely disappeared before his eyes without a trace.
"Who is she?"
Great confusion arose in Duan Ling Tian's heart.
"An assassin from the Mountainshade Black Market who looks exactly like Kerr. She was originally here to kill me, but she changed her mind at the last minute and wants to help me cancel the mission …"
Duan Lingtian's thoughts gradually became clearer at this moment.
Naturally, he would not be so arrogant to think that she did not kill him because she found him pleasing to the eye.
As an assassin from the Mountainshade Black Market, she was a cold-blooded person. It was impossible for her to stop because of such a ridiculous reason.
"No matter how I think about it, there's only one reason. It's because of Kerr! However, even if she's really related to Kerr, how would she know about the relationship between Kerr and me? Don't tell me she's been hiding in the dark all this time when Kerr and I were together? "
"If she's been hiding in the dark all this time, she should be protecting Kerr. Why would she follow me? Moreover, even if she's following me, there's no need for her to expose herself in front of me, right? "
Duan Lingtian could not figure it out no matter how he thought about it.
"I guess I'll have to ask Kerr when I return. However, Kerr has already told me about her in the past. She didn't mention that she has a relative in this world."
Since he could not figure it out, Duan Lingtian no longer thought about it. His mind returned to the Hunting Trial.
As time went by, the Hunting Trial finally came to an end.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian was ranked first in the results.
"How can Duan Lingtian have so many points? It's ten times more than the person in second place! Even if he killed all the wild beasts he encountered, it's impossible for him to have so many points, right? "
The group of inner court disciples did not object to Duan Lingtian being ranked first in the Hunting Trial. They had long heard about how monstrous Duan Lingtian was.
However, Duan Ling Tian's results made all of them suspicious. All of them felt that there was an element of cheating.
Duan Lingtian remained calm in the face of the group of inner court disciples' doubts. He was not bothered by it at all.
"Duan Lingtian's points are so high because he killed the Mastery Saint Rudiment Stage wild beast, the Berserk Giant Ape!"
At this moment, an inner court elder who had been looking at Duan Lingtian with a complicated gaze could not help but speak up when he heard the group of inner court disciples whispering among themselves.
As soon as he spoke, another inner court elder smiled wryly. It was obvious he knew this as well.
Bai Li Hong's face was calm. He did not seem surprised at all.
Zhong Huo, the Vice Sect Leader of Moon Illumination Sect, looked at Duan Lingtian with a complicated gaze. His expression kept changing. No one knew what he was thinking about.
"Berserk Giant Ape?"
When the inner court elder spoke, the group of inner court disciples were completely stunned.
They were no strangers to the Berserk Giant Ape.
It was a famous existence among the Mastery Saint Rudiment Stage wild beasts. Once it went berserk, its strength would far surpass wild beasts of the same level. It was known as the Slaughterer among the Mastery Saint Rudiment Stage wild beasts.
However, such a wild beast was killed by Duan Lingtian?
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
At this moment, the group of inner court disciples shifted their gazes to Duan Ling Tian in unison.
Their gazes were filled with shock, disbelief, doubt, and surprise.
No matter what, Duan Lingtian had become the center of attention at this moment.
"Since the Berserk Giant Ape was killed after it went berserk, the points awarded for killing it will be doubled. That's why Duan Lingtian's result is so different from all of you! I'm sure all of you know that the points awarded for killing a Mastery Saint Rudiment Stage wild beast will be doubled. "
Another inner court elder said.
At this moment, the group of inner court disciples no longer said anything even though they had mixed feelings.
Just like that, the Moon Illumination Sect's annual Hunting Assessment ended. Duan Lingtian had also obtained the honor of being the first to enter the sect's storehouse.
Although most of the items in the sect's storehouse were covered in dust, making it difficult for ordinary people to identify them, one had to admit that there were many treasures in there.
Naturally, most of them were just scrap metal!
However, even so, Duan Lingtian was still looking forward to the sect's storehouse. He had a feeling that he would be able to find something good in there.
On the way back to the Moon Illumination Sect, the group of inner court disciples looked at Duan Lingtian with mixed feelings.
Every one of them had entered the Moon Illumination Sect five years ago. However, none of them could compare to Duan Lingtian who had just entered the sect this year. This made them feel a little uncomfortable.
"Uncle, I hope you'll really give up on the idea of going against him. Otherwise, you'll really be cutting off your own path of retreat!"
He Zhong was also looking at Duan Lingtian. His gaze was even more complicated than the other inner court disciples.
One could say that he had watched Duan Lingtian grow up step by step. The speed of his growth was so fast that he could only look at him in the dust.
The four Moon Illumination Sect's high-ranking officials, including Bai Li Hong and Zhong Huo, did not notice him at all.
Not far behind them, a black figure was following them at a speed that was neither fast nor slow. It was a graceful lady.
