"Don't tell me your Situ Clan has a rule that only Saint Refinement Masters can come here? If that's the case, I'll leave immediately. "
Duan Lingtian said nonchalantly with a nonchalant expression on his face when he saw the beautiful woman whose expression had turned slightly gloomy.
Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman's expression eased up a little. Then, she looked at Duan Lingtian deeply but did not say anything else. She continued to lead the way.
Although she did not know where this young man's confidence came from, she did not ask him to leave. Since he was already here, she would, naturally, give it a try. It would be a dereliction of her duty if she chased him away.
Under the beautiful woman's lead, Duan Lingtian soon arrived at a spacious courtyard in the Situ Clan's inner mansion.
"I'll pass on the message."
The beautiful woman greeted Duan Lingtian and walked into the courtyard without waiting for Duan Lingtian's response.
Duan Lingtian stood quietly at the entrance with a gleam in his eyes. "This Situ Clan's inner mansion's supervisor is not simple … Her cultivation base is at the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage, and the feeling she gives me is no different from the Vice Sect Leader of Moon Illumination Sect. She must be an Imminent Saint Stage powerhouse. "
If it was before, he would have been afraid when he found out the beautiful woman was an Imminent Saint Stage powerhouse.
However, he did not feel anything at all now.
With his current strength, even if he did not use the Jasper Celestial Sword, it would be difficult for him to find a match below the Saint Stage.
Soon, the beautiful woman came out again, and with her was an old man.
The old man was dressed in a neat white robe. Coupled with his white hair, he looked otherworldly and elegant.
Every step he took was so natural in Duan Lingtian's eyes.
Not only that, but it also gave Duan Lingtian a certain amount of pressure.
"Saint Stage powerhouse!"
When Duan Lingtian saw how humble the beautiful woman was in front of the old man, coupled with the pressure the old man gave him, it was not difficult for him to guess the old man's strength. He could not help but feel shocked.
This seemed to be the place where the Great Young Master of Situ Clan lived, right?
How could there be a Saint Realm expert?
A seventh-rate clan like the Situ Clan only had a few Saint Realm experts at most. Unexpectedly, one had appeared here. It was no wonder that Duan Lingtian was not surprised.
"This is Elder Hou."
The beautiful woman followed the old man out and said to Duan Lingtian.
"Elder Hou."
Duan Lingtian nodded at the old man as a greeting.
"Elder Hou is the Grand Supreme Elder of the Situ Clan. Please show some respect."
Right at this moment, before the old man could respond, the beautiful woman sent a voice transmission to Duan Lingtian to remind him. Her tone was mixed with a trace of displeasure.
"Manager Fu, aren't you overstepping your boundaries? I came to your Situ Clan because you have something to ask of me. Even if this Elder Hou is the Supreme Elder of your Situ Clan, so what? Don't tell me you want me to bow and scrape? "
Duan Ling Tian glanced indifferently at the beautiful woman as he spoke without the slightest scruple.
"You!"
It was apparent the beautiful woman did not expect Duan Lingtian would say such a thing. Moreover, he did not use Voice Transmission but said it out loud. Her expression changed immediately as a cold gleam appeared in her eyes.
"What? Did I say something wrong? "
Duan Lingtian sneered.
From the moment Duan Lingtian entered the Situ Clan, he had already made up his mind. If he wanted to gain a foothold in Windfall Nation through the Situ Clan, he had to maintain his dominance so that he would be valued.
With his current strength and backing, he was indeed qualified to display his dominance in a clan like the Situ Clan.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian no longer looked at the beautiful woman. Instead, he looked at the old man in front of him.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian noticed an indescribable smile on the old man's face.
For some reason, Duan Lingtian could not help but feel wary when he saw the smile.
Boom!
At this moment, an earth-shattering explosion sounded in the air. Duan Lingtian only felt a gust of strong wind blowing toward him. It was so strong that it seemed as though it was howling in the air.
Along with the strong wind, there were also bursts of fragrance.
Duan Lingtian was no stranger to this fragrance. It came from the inner mansion's manager, Manager Fu. She was the beautiful woman who was originally following behind the old man.
Manager Fu's sudden attack was out of Duan Lingtian's expectation.
However, Duan Lingtian was not a pushover. In the face of Manager Fu's sudden attack, his right arm suddenly shook as he unleashed all of his brute strength. Coupled with the True Energy that surged into his fist through his 99 Saint Veins, he punched out at lightning speed to meet Manager Fu's palm that had made a preemptive strike.
The palm came out of nowhere as though it had transformed into a gigantic fan that was about to send Duan Lingtian flying.
The iron fist struck after the enemy had made a move. It was awe-inspiring as it fearlessly met the beautiful woman's palm.
At this moment, the fist and palm collided.
Bang!
Another thunderous explosion sounded. This time, Duan Lingtian and Manager Fu had exchanged blows.
In this exchange, they did not use any Saint Grade Martial Tactic moves, True Energy Consolidated Weapon, True Energy Consolidated Beast, True Energy Consolidated Territory, or any other external force such as Saint Weapons. It was purely a competition of True Energy.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian did not only rely on his True Energy.
After Duan Lingtian had broken through to the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage, his body had transformed again. The energy contained in it had become even more terrifying.
Naturally, since Duan Lingtian had just broken through to the Paramount Saint Rudiment Stage, he did not have an advantage in terms of True Energy.
Although he had 99 Saint Veins to channel his True Energy, he had made a move after the enemy had made a move. Before he made his move, Manager Fu had already gathered all of her True Energy in her palm and attacked him like a storm. She did not hold back at all.
Due to this reason, he did not have an advantage in terms of Saint Veins.
Accompanied by a wave of air that swept out from where the two of them collided, Duan Ling Tian's expression remained unchanged. He stood in the same spot without moving at all like a statue that was as immovable as a mountain.
On the other hand, Manager Fu, who had a confident expression on her face earlier, had her confidence disintegrated in just a blink of an eye.
In the next instant, she was sent flying for a few meters before she managed to stabilize herself in a wretched manner.
This was only because Duan Lingtian had stopped in time.
Otherwise, Manager Fu would have been in an even more wretched state.
"Can I go in now?"
After defeating Manager Fu, Duan Lingtian did not even look at her. Instead, he looked at the white-robed old man who had been standing nearby from the beginning until the end. He was Situ Hou, the Supreme Elder of Situ Clan.
He did not need to guess to know the old man had asked Manager Fu to make a move.
Otherwise, even Manager Fu would not have dared to act recklessly in front of the old man.
"Of course."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Situ Hou nodded. It was as though he did not realize he had been exposed at all.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian instantly strode into the courtyard before him.
At the same time, Situ Hou followed behind him. At the same time, he glanced at Manager Fu whose face was slightly pale. "There's nothing for you to do here."
"Yes."
Manager Fu replied respectfully.
However, before she left, she could not help but turn to look at Duan Lingtian's back. A hint of dread and disbelief flashed in her eyes.
'I'm sure he's not a Saint Stage powerhouse … However, his strength is obviously far above mine! Don't tell me he's a Heaven Ranking powerhouse? '
The moment Manager Fu thought of this, her eyes shone brightly.
The Heaven Ranking was a ranking list with a higher status in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Usually, only fifth-rate forces would be able to create a ranking list.
In other words, the Heaven Ranking would usually have an entire Mansion under its control.
To be more precise, it would have all the powerhouses at the peak of the Saint Rudiment Stage in a Mansion.
There were a total of 100 people in the Heaven Ranking. All of them were powerhouses at the peak of the Saint Rudiment Stage. They were only a step away from the Saint Stage.
It was said that the weakest person in the Heaven Ranking had the strength to fight three ordinary Imminent Saint Stage powerhouses if they joined forces.
If Duan Lingtian knew about the existence of the Heaven Ranking, he would definitely be shocked. This was because it was quite similar to the Nine Sect Alliances' Earth Ranking. However, the Earth Ranking was for powerhouses at the peak of the Mortal Shedding Stage while the Heaven Ranking was for powerhouses at the peak of the Saint Rudiment Stage.
In fact, the Earth Ranking was an imitation of the Heaven Ranking.
In the Dao Martial Saint Land, there were countless districts like the Nine Sect Alliances.
Although there were many fifth-rate forces in the Dao Martial Saint Land as well, there were only a few dozen of them.
Even if every fifth-rate force had a Heaven Ranking, there were only a few dozen of them in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Based on this, one could see how valuable the Heaven Ranking was.
Powerhouses who could be listed in the Heaven Ranking were all outstanding powerhouses at the Saint Rudiment Stage.
Due to this reason, Manager Fu's attitude had completely changed when she guessed Duan Lingtian was a powerhouse in the Heaven Ranking.
At this moment, when she thought of that almost perfect handsome face, for some unknown reason, Manager Fu's cheeks actually flushed slightly. It was as if she had the shyness of a young girl who was in love at this moment.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian was unaware of the change in Manager Fu's attitude.
Naturally, he was not interested in finding out.
At this moment, he was walking into the room where the Great Young Master of Situ Clan was staying with Situ Hou, the Supreme Elder of Situ Clan. It was a simple and plain room. It was hard to imagine this was the room of the next Clan Leader of Situ Clan.
Just this alone made Duan Lingtian have a good impression of the Great Young Master of Situ Clan.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian also saw the Great Young Master of Situ Clan, Situ Hang, who was lying on the bed.
Situ Hang had a handsome but firm face. However, his face was as pale as a sheet of white paper. The black spider mark between his eyebrows made him look even scarier and more frightening.
When Duan Lingtian and Situ Hou entered, he struggled to sit up. One could see he was very weak. He was so weak that he looked like an ordinary person without any cultivation base.
"Grandfather Hou."
He greeted Situ Hou before he shifted his gaze to Duan Lingtian. His pale lips moved as he asked, "This is?"
"This is the mister who came to see you."
Situ Hou seemed to have a good relationship with Situ Hang. When he spoke, the kindness in his eyes could not be concealed.
"I've already given up. Why do you still have to …"
Situ Hang sighed.
"Don't give up so easily before it's too late."
Situ Hou said solemnly.
"Alright."
