A Death Duel meant they would fight to the death!
"Heavens! What kind of enmity does Lin Dong, the strongest person on the Heaven Ranking from the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion's Lin Clan, have with Master Duan?
”
"He didn't say it was a Death Duel when he challenged Master Duan previously. If Master Duan isn't confident, he'll most likely go back on his word, right?"
"How ruthless! He actually wants a Death Duel! "
…
When the people in the capital of Windfall Nation regained their senses, they began to discuss among themselves.
Many people began to worry if Duan Ling Tian would participate in tomorrow's battle after finding out it was a Death Battle.
A Death Duel to determine life and death!
This was not a joke.
A person only had one life. Once it was over, it would mean the end of the person's life.
If there was no deep enmity between them, they would not have a Death Duel.
Soon after, the discussions in the capital of Windfall Nation began to change again.
"Death Duel … I wonder if Master Duan will participate in the Death Duel with Lin Dong tomorrow after finding out it's a Death Duel."
"If I were Master Duan, I'd definitely not participate. Since the other party dares to issue a Death Duel, it's obvious he's full of confidence and doesn't come with good intentions. If he agrees, won't he be jumping into the pit that the other party has dug? "
"Although Master Duan is quite strong, I'm afraid he's still slightly weaker than Lin Dong. After all, Lin Dong is the strongest person on the Heaven Ranking. He's also known as the strongest person below the Saint Stage in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion's district! In the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion, I'm afraid nobody below the Saint Stage is a match for him. "
…
More and more people felt that after Duan Ling Tian found out about the life and death battle, he would shrink back or even flee at the last minute.
"Death Duel?"
Situ Hao was the first to receive the news in the Situ Clan.
"What enmity does Lin Dong have with Master Duan? He actually wants to have a Death Duel with Master Duan. It's obvious he wants to kill Master Duan!"
Situ Hao's expression was grave.
Initially, he already felt guilty about Duan Lingtian leaving the Situ Clan voluntarily.
However, when he heard Lin Dong was going to have a Death Duel with Duan Lingtian, his first reaction was to worry about Duan Lingtian's safety.
After all, a life and death battle was no joke!
Situ Hao's eyes flickered as he went to the courtyard where his son, Situ Hang, lived.
Although Duan Lingtian had announced his departure from the Situ Clan and was no longer the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, he did not plan to leave the Situ Clan's estate before he left Windfall Nation.
"Master Duan, you know Lin Dong from the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion?"
Situ Hao had come to look for Duan Lingtian. When he saw Duan Lingtian, he went straight to the point.
"No, I don't."
Duan Lingtian shook his head. "I only heard about him after I came to Windfall Nation. I know he's the strongest person on the Heaven Ranking, and he's a lineal disciple of the Lin Clan in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion. He's widely acknowledged as the strongest person below the Saint Stage in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion."
"Situ Clan Head, why do you ask?"
Duan Lingtian looked puzzled.
"This … doesn't make sense."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words and seeing the puzzled expression on his son's face, Situ Hao was puzzled.
"Father, what's going on?"
Situ Hang asked.
"There's news from King Qian's estate that Lin Dong will have a battle with Master Duan … It's a Death Duel!"
Situ Hao said as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
Death Duel!
Horror dawned on Situ Hang's face. "Lin Dong wants to kill Master Duan?!"
A Death Duel would not stop until one of them was dead!
The battle would not stop until one of them was dead.
"Death Duel?"
Upon hearing Situ Hao's words, Duan Lingtian could not help but narrow his eyes. A cold gleam flashed in his eyes.
This news had also exceeded his expectations.
"Since Master Duan doesn't know Lin Dong, there's only one possibility. It's someone from King Qian's estate who wants to kill you! Perhaps, it's King Qian himself who wants to kill you. "
As the Clan Leader of Situ Clan, Situ Hao's mind worked quickly. He quickly realized this.
"However, why would King Qian want to kill you?"
Regarding this, Situ Hao was unable to understand it no matter how hard he thought about it.
Situ Hang was also puzzled.
Only Duan Lingtian remained calm. It was as though he was not puzzled by this matter at all.
He did not need to guess to know King Qian's motive. He must have come for the Devilseal Tablet in his possession. "He didn't hesitate to go to the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion to ask the strongest person on the Heaven Ranking to deal with me for the Devilseal Tablet in my possession.
"I know."
At this moment, a familiar voice resonated from outside. The person who walked into the courtyard was none other than Situ Hou, the Supreme Elder of Situ Clan.
"Grandfather Hou, do you know why King Qian wants to kill Master Duan? “
Situ Hang's eyes lit up immediately.
Situ Hao and Duan Lingtian immediately looked at Situ Hou in unison.
Situ Hao had a curious expression on his face.
Duan Lingtian, on the other hand, frowned. He was secretly shocked. 'Don't tell me the news about the Devilseal Tablet being in my possession has already spread out? Even the Supreme Elder of the Situ Clan knows about it? "
However, as soon as Situ Hou spoke, he quickly realized he was overthinking.
However, he did not expect there to be such a coincidence in this world.
According to Situ Hou, the reason King Qian wanted to kill him was because he wanted to repay a servant who had saved his life many years ago.
That servant had left King Qian's estate many years ago and formed a bandit gang at the southern border of Windfall Nation. As the Great Leader, he led a carefree life.
However, half a year ago, his third brother was killed by a mysterious powerhouse.
He brought the portrait of the mysterious powerhouse with him and traveled thousands of miles to the capital of Windfall Nation just to fulfill the promise King Qian made to him back then. He was willing to do something within his power for King Qian.
He wanted King Qian to kill the mysterious powerhouse in the portrait.
The mysterious powerhouse was none other than Duan Lingtian.
"It's him."
As Situ Hou spoke, Duan Lingtian recalled the incident when he first arrived in Windfall Nation.
At that time, the Third Chief of the bandit gang wanted to kill him after extorting a village. In the end, he was killed by him instead.
At that time, he did not destroy the corpse.
This was because he felt a bandit gang that was comparable to an eighth-rate force would not be able to threaten him even if all of them came out.
'I can't believe the Great Leader of a bandit gang that's comparable to an eighth-rate force is actually related to King Qian, the Fourth Prince of Windfall Nation's Imperial Family.'
Duan Lingtian could not help but sigh inwardly. 'Looks like I really can't underestimate anyone next time.'
"Oh, I see."
Situ Hao and Situ Hang finally understood after listening to Situ Hou's words.
