After killing Tai Wu, taking his Spatial Ring, and destroying his corpse, Duan Lingtian immediately left the forest that was destroyed by Tai Wu.
Currently, the most important thing for him was to find a secluded place to recuperate.
As for other matters, he would have to wait until his True Energy and Spiritual Energy had recovered.
The group of Moon Illumination Sect's Saint Stage powerhouses, including Sect Leader Jiang Wei, returned to the Moon Illumination Sect one after another in disappointment after searching for Duan Lingtian for more than ten days to no avail.
As soon as Jiang Wei returned to the Moon Illumination Sect, he was furious when he heard about Bai Li Hong escaping with his men.
He was not stupid. His first thought was that the few Vice Sect Leaders had let Bai Li Hong go.
However, what could he do even if he guessed it?
Could he sentence them to death or expel them from the Moon Illumination Sect?
The few Vice Sect Leaders of the Moon Illumination Sect were all Imminent Saint Stage powerhouses. All of them were the pillars of the Moon Illumination Sect. Moreover, none of them would be able to break through to the Saint Stage at any time.
It would be a loss to the Moon Illumination Sect if any of them died.
Due to this reason, Jiang Wei did not do anything even though he was furious.
The few Vice Sect Leaders of the Moon Illumination Sect had taken this into consideration when they decided to let Bai Li Hong and the others go.
No matter what, the Moon Illumination Sect had lost Qian Kong, Bai Li Hong, and a peerless genius like Duan Lingtian. The loss was immeasurable.
Due to this reason, Jiang Wei, the Sect Leader of the Moon Illumination Sect, did not have a pleasant expression on his face.
Naturally, although he did not continue to search for Duan Lingtian, he did not give up. He secretly sent the elders he trusted in the Moon Illumination Sect to search for Duan Lingtian's whereabouts.
"If my Moon Illumination Sect can obtain that sword, it won't be impossible for my Moon Illumination Sect to become the leader of the nine sects."
When Jiang Wei recalled the mysterious sword Duan Lingtian had used to kill Qian Kong, his heart burned with eagerness.
He was determined to obtain that sword!
At the same time, Duan Lingtian was hiding in a remote place, cultivating on the third floor of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
More than ten days had passed in the outside world, but more than a month had passed in the third floor of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. Duan Lingtian's True Qi had almost fully recovered, and his mental strength had also recovered.
The reason he did not wake up from his cultivation was because Duan Lingtian was further consolidating his cultivation base at the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage.
After all, he had broken through to the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage in a hurry, so his cultivation was not stable yet.
This time, he planned to use this opportunity to completely consolidate his cultivation base at the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage.
After he had stabilized his cultivation base, he would make another trip to the Moon Illumination Sect.
He was very worried about Bai Li Hong and his friends.
Although Duan Lingtian was worried, he did not think the Moon Illumination Sect would execute them. After all, even if the Moon Illumination Sect executed them, the disadvantages would outweigh the advantages.
In his opinion, as a seventh-rate sect, the Moon Illumination Sect would not do such a stupid thing.
While Duan Lingtian was consolidating his cultivation base at the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage, the faraway Azure Cloud Mansion was not calm at all.
Whoosh!
A swift figure landed on the floating island like a gust of wind.
"Elder Rong!"
"Elder Rong!"
…
On the other hand, the rows of black-armored guards patrolling the island in the sky also stopped and bowed respectfully when they saw the newcomer slowing down.
The person whom they addressed as Elder Rong was an old man.
The old man was dressed in a gray robe. Although his hair was white, his face was ruddy, and he had a sage-like aura.
However, at this moment, his expression was slightly gloomy.
The old man nodded at the Black Armored Guards he encountered on the way. With a flash of movement, he sped up again. Soon after, he entered the most luxurious building on the floating island and the most spacious mansion.
"Lord Mansion Master!"
Soon after, the old man saw the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Rufeng.
"Elder Rong, you look like you're in a hurry. Did something happen?"
Duan Rufeng asked.
The old man in front of him had followed him for many years and was in charge of gathering information for his subordinates. If something had not happened, it was impossible for him to come looking for him in such a hurry.
"Mansion Master, if I'm not mistaken, the Young Mansion Master's full name is Duan Lingtian, right?"
The old man asked after taking a deep breath.
"That's right."
Duan Rufeng nodded. Then, he asked with a joyful expression on his face, "What? Did Elder Ku bring Tian 'er back? "
"No."
Faced with the surprised Duan Rufeng, the old man shook his head and smiled wryly. Then, he said, "I've received news that the Dragons are secretly searching for a young man named Duan Lingtian. It's said that the Dragons' Clan Leader personally gave the order. Moreover, there's a portrait in the hands of the Dragons' Intelligence Department.
This is a copy of the portrait by my subordinates. I think the person in the portrait looks a little like you, Mansion Master. For this reason, I suspect the person the Dragons are looking for is the Young Mansion Master! "
The old man raised his hand and took out a portrait before he passed it to Duan Rufeng.
Duan Rufeng opened the portrait and looked at it. His eyes narrowed immediately.
With just a glance, he could tell the person in the portrait was his son, Duan Lingtian.
"What's going on? My son is still in the Mortal Continent. How did he offend the Dragons? "
Duan Rufeng's expression turned grave.
He had to be cautious about this matter since it concerned the Dragons.
Although the Azure Cloud Mansion was not afraid of the dragon clan, he could not help but worry about his son's safety when he thought about how the dragon clan was looking for his son. Moreover, it was obvious the dragon clan was not looking for his son to return to the dragon clan for tea.
"I can't figure it out as well. By right, the Young Mansion Master should be in the Mortal Continent now. Mansion Master, you also said you left the Voice Transmission Jade Slip for the Young Mansion Master and asked Ku Mi, that old fellow, to wait for him at the southern border of the Dao Martial Saint Land. By right, if he leaves the Mortal Continent, he should look for Ku Mi immediately. However, until now, there's still no news from Ku Mi. "
The old man was the General Manager of the Azure Cloud Mansion's Intelligence Department. To a certain extent, he could be considered as Duan Rufeng's eyes and ears in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
He would be able to find out immediately if there was any commotion in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
Naturally, if it was just some insignificant force, he would not pay any attention to it at all.
"Something must have changed in this matter."
Duan Rufeng's eyes gleamed brightly as he said in a deep voice, "Rong Yuan, I plan to make a trip back to the Cloud Continent. Tell Madam that I have something to attend to at the last minute. Don't tell Madam about this. I'm afraid she'll be worried. "
"Yes!"
Rong Yuan was also the General Manager of the Azure Cloud Mansion's Intelligence Department. He was also Duan Rufeng's right-hand man. When he heard Duan Rufeng's words, he immediately responded respectfully.
After Duan Rufeng passed down his order, he immediately left the Azure Cloud Mansion.
He left alone without bringing anyone with him.
His destination was the southern district of the Dao Martial Saint Land.
"Lord Mansion Master?"
Ku Mi who had been waiting at the southern coastal district of the Dao Martial Saint Land for a long time did not expect the Lord Mansion Master would personally make an appearance. He was shocked.
"Ku Mi, follow me to the Cloud Continent."
Duan Rufeng said indifferently when he saw the old man who was completely covered in a gray robe.
After he finished speaking, he took the lead and made his way to the Cloud Continent.
The old man did not dare to dawdle and immediately followed him.
Although this old man was also dressed in gray like Rong Yuan, he was on the other end of the spectrum compared to Rong Yuan's sage-like demeanor. Just by standing there, he inadvertently exuded a gloomy and cold aura, as if thousands of ghosts were coming to visit him.
He was also holding a walking stick in his hand.
If Han Xuenai was here, she would definitely be able to recognize him with just a glance.
This old man was the person who had stopped the group of people from the Greenwave Han Mansion when they were leaving the Dao Martial Saint Land from the south in a grandiose manner.
The old man had stopped the group of powerhouses from the Greenwave Han Mansion with just his strength alone.
Moreover, even the strongest powerhouse by her side, Mu Yi, was respectful to the old man.
"Ku Mi, Rong Yuan brought back a piece of news. He said that the Dragons are looking for my son."
Duan Rufeng said while they were on their way.
Although his tone was calm, Ku Mi could hear a trace of terrifying coldness in it.
"Young Mansion Master? Isn't the Young Mansion Master on the Cloud Continent? "
Upon hearing this, Ku Mi's emotions could not help but fluctuate a little.
"Have you encountered anything out of the ordinary while you've been here all these years? For example, did some powerhouses leave the Dao Martial Saint Land and go to the Cloud Continent? "
Duan Rufeng asked.
"Two days ago, there was a group of people who went south."
Ku Mi pondered for a moment before he said, "At that time, it was the people from the Greenwave Han Mansion. However, they didn't go to the Cloud Continent … They searched the vast sea for a long time as though they were looking for someone. After a period of time, they returned after they found nothing."
"Did you see anyone from the Dragons?"
Duan Rufeng asked again.
"People from the Dragons?"
Upon hearing Duan Rufeng's words, Ku Mi's heart skipped a beat. Then, he said, "A year ago, Di Jue, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, passed by this place. I've met him before … According to him, he went to an island on the Separation Cloud Continent and not the Cloud Continent. Not long ago, he just came back from there. Although he forced a smile in front of me, I could tell he seemed to have suffered a setback. "
"Then, I must be right … It must have something to do with Di Jue!"
Upon hearing this, Duan Rufeng's face turned grave immediately.
Upon hearing Duan Rufeng's words, Ku Mi seemed to have guessed something as well. Horror dawned on his face immediately. "Mansion Master, I was careless in this matter. If something really happened to Young Mansion Master because of Di Jue, I, Ku Mi, will definitely take Di Jue's life even if I have to spill my blood on the Dragons! "
Ku Mi's words were said in an extremely cold and sinister manner.
"There's no point in saying all this now. The most important thing now is to go to the Cloud Continent to investigate the situation. Since the Dragons are looking for my son, I'm sure he's fine now. "
The moment Duan Rufeng thought of this, he secretly sighed in relief.
