"Tian Wu, y-you've broken through to the Saint Stage?"
When Zi Yun sensed the aura on Feng Tianwu's body, her eyes could not help but narrow as joy appeared on her face.
"Yes."
Feng Tianwu nodded with a smile. However, a hint of worry could be seen between her brows. She was worried about Duan Lingtian's safety.
"S-Saint Stage? Wu 'er has broken through to the Saint Stage? "
Feng Wu Dao who was standing by the side was completely stunned. He stared at his daughter in a daze and could not regain his senses for a long time.
Naturally, he knew very well what the Saint Stage meant.
Although he knew his daughter was only a step away from the Saint Stage, his heart was still filled with shock when he learned that his daughter had already broken through to the Saint Stage.
After all, this was his daughter whom he had watched grow up!
When he recalled the past, he sighed again in his heart. At the same time, he was filled with gratitude toward Duan Lingtian.
It was all because of Duan Lingtian that his daughter was able to get rid of the Fire Spirit Body and break the shackles of fate, allowing her to achieve what she had today.
Since Feng Tianwu had already broken through to the Saint Stage, Zi Yun, naturally, no longer had an excuse to make her stay.
Although she wanted to go back on her words, she did not do so in the end. This was because she knew her disciple would be disgusted if she did so. It was not a good thing for her.
In order not to affect her disciple's image, she agreed to let Feng Tianwu leave.
Since Feng Tianwu wanted to leave, Feng Wu Dao, naturally, did not plan to stay in the Drift Blaze Sect any longer. He planned to go to the Situ Clan in the capital of Windfall Nation to reunite with Bai Li Hong, Sima Chang Feng, and the others.
After Feng Wu Dao and his daughter left the Drift Blaze Sect, Zi Yun entered the forbidden area of the Drift Blaze Sect. It was the belly of an active volcano. There was a spacious secret underground chamber inside. The walls of the secret underground chamber were fiery red and emitted waves of scorching aura.
However, Zi Yun was not affected by the heat when she arrived here.
"Sect Leader Zi Yun."
At a corner of the secret room, the grey clothed old woman who was sitting cross-legged on the stone bed seemed to have sensed something and suddenly opened her eyes. When she discovered that the person who came was Ziyun, she immediately got off the bed and faintly greeted her.
"Black Crow, I have something for you to do … Once you're done with this, you'll be free."
Zi Yun lightly glanced at the grey clothed old woman and said.
"You're finally going to use up the promise I made to you?"
The gray-clothed old woman, who was also known as the Black Crow, asked in surprise. Her turbid eyes suddenly flashed with a bright light.
Back then, Ziyun had saved her life.
She was not an ungrateful person. From that moment on, she followed Zi Yun back to the Drift Blaze Sect and made a promise that she would only leave the Drift Blaze Sect after she had repaid Zi Yun for saving her life.
This wait lasted for twenty years.
She naturally longed for freedom, but in her opinion, only the freedom after repaying the debt of gratitude for saving her life was what she wanted.
Otherwise, she would not be able to get over the hurdle in her heart.
Originally, the Black Crow thought that Zi Yun would never need to use the promise she made back then because with Zi Yun's strength, there was really nothing that she needed her help with.
Especially in recent years, the gap between her and Zi Yun had become wider.
She had even prepared for the worst, which was to stay in the Drift Blaze Sect for the rest of her life.
Today, Zi Yun's arrival was like a ray of light that shone into a dark corner, causing the Black Crow's heart that had been silent for many years to become active again.
"As long as you do this well, we'll be even."
Zi Yun said.
"Speak."
The Black Crow took a deep breath and asked bluntly. No matter what the other party requested, as long as she could do it, she would not refuse.
"Now that my direct disciple has left the Drift Blaze Sect, she should be staying outside for a long time … I want you to stay by her side and protect her until her strength surpasses yours! At that time, we'll be even. You can leave the Drift Blaze Sect and live the life you want. "
Zi Yun did not beat around the bush and said bluntly.
"Is it Little Feng?"
It was apparent that the Black Crow knew about Feng Tianwu.
"Yes."
Zi Yun nodded.
"She … She has broken through to the Saint Stage?"
The Black Crow asked in surprise. At the same time, a hint of gentleness could be seen in her eyes. It was apparent that she had a good relationship with Feng Tianwu. Moreover, she knew the condition that Feng Tianwu had to fulfill before she could leave the Drift Blaze Sect.
Zi Yun nodded again.
"With Little Feng's innate talent, now that she has broken through to the Saint Stage, I'm afraid she'll surpass me in less than ten years! Sect Leader Zi Yun, do you really want me to return the favor to you like this? "
The Black Crow looked at Zi Yun and asked, "This is a little disadvantageous for you."
"As long as Tian Wu is safe, it's still a gain for me."
Zi Yun, on the other hand, did not feel disadvantageous at all.
"I understand now."
The Black Crow nodded.
"She just left not long ago. She should be heading to the Situ Clan in the capital first … You can hide by her side. If her life is not in danger, there's no need for you to make a move. Her departure this time can be considered as a form of training for her. "
Zi Yun said to the Black Crow.
Hei Ya responded and left. He left the place where he had stayed for twenty years.
Naturally, Feng Tianwu did not notice the Black Crow tailing her since the gap in their strength was too wide.
Even Feng Tianwu did not notice it, let alone Feng Wu Dao.
After the father and daughter left the Drift Blaze Sect, they made their way to the capital. When they arrived at the capital, they went straight to the Situ Clan.
When the people from the Situ Clan learned that Lady Feng from the Drift Blaze Sect had arrived, the Clan Leader, Situ Hao, personally came out to welcome her. It could be said that he had given the Drift Blaze Sect enough face. Naturally, he did not only give face to the Drift Blaze Sect, but he also gave face to Duan Lingtian.
Who in Windfall Nation did not know that Lady Feng from the Drift Blaze Sect had a special relationship with their Situ Clan's Interim Advisor, Master Duan?
Bai Li Hong, Sima Chang Feng, and the others were overjoyed when they learned that Feng Wu Dao had returned.
"Miss Tian Wu."
Xiong Quan and Gold Thug were a little excited when they saw Feng Tianwu again.
"It's been so many years since we last met. How are both of you?"
Feng Tianwu greeted both of them with a smile.
"Yes, yes."
Xiong Quan and Gold Thug quickly nodded.
The reason Feng Tianwu left the Drift Blaze Sect this time was to look for Duan Lingtian.
Although Duan Lingtian did not know where Duan Lingtian had gone, she could guess what Duan Lingtian's next step was based on her understanding of some things. "Sister Kerr was taken away by the people from Zoroastrianism. The Zoroastrianism is a powerful force in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It's not realistic for Elder Brother Duan to look for Sister Kerr …"
"Then, Elder Brother Duan must have gone to look for Sister Fei 'er. Sister Fei 'er must be with Xue Nai … There's a force behind Xue Nai that's extraordinary in the Dao Martial Saint Land! Before Elder Brother Duan came to the Dao Martial Saint Land, he gave Elder Brother Duan a large number of fifth-grade Saint Stones and a small number of fourth-grade Saint Stones. "
Some of this information was already known to Feng Tianwu while some she had just learned from Bai Li Hong and the others.
After a round of speculation, she confirmed it. "In this case, the force behind Xue Nai must be a fifth-rate force … A fifth-rate force, Han Xuenai. With the surname Han … Although there are several dozens of fifth-rate forces in the Dao Martial Saint Land, there's only one with the surname Han … The Greenwave Han Mansion! "
In the end, Feng Tianwu confirmed it.
Greenwave Han Mansion!
As intelligent as Feng Tianwu was, she quickly locked onto her target.
Naturally, she did not dare to confirm it.
However, even if she did not dare to confirm it, she would not miss out on such an important clue.
Her thoughts were similar to Duan Lingtian's.
However, although she had guessed that Duan Lingtian might have gone to the Greenwave Han Mansion, she did not tell the others, including her father.
She knew very well that if she told her father, Bai Li Hong, and the others about this, it would only bring them trouble. It was not a good thing.
If Duan Lingtian knew about Feng Tianwu's thoughts, he would definitely think that she was very considerate. Her thoughts were almost the same as his.
After she had a target in mind, Feng Tianwu accompanied Feng Wu Dao for a few more days before she left the Situ Clan and the capital of Windfall Nation. She headed in the northeast direction.
Along the way, she had a strong feeling that she was heading in the right direction.
Feng Tianwu did not notice that an old figure was tailing her from afar.
"Duan Lingtian? The Devilseal Tablet? "
In the lair of the Mountainshade Black Market's branch in Windfall Nation, Hong Zhen, the leader, narrowed his eyes when he learned about the news that had spread in Windfall Nation.
As a Devil Cultivator, apart from those who were stronger than him, the thing he feared the most was the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking.
The Devilseal Tablet could kill him even if it was used by a Martial or Dao Cultivator whose cultivation base was a stage lower than his.
Due to this reason, when he learned that the Devilseal Tablet that had not appeared in the Dao Martial Saint Land for a long time had reappeared, his first thought was not how to get his hands on the Devilseal Tablet. Instead, he feared the Devilseal Tablet.
'I wonder if this Duan Lingtian is the Duan Lingtian that the headquarters is looking for … If the headquarters knew about the Devilseal Tablet's whereabouts beforehand, he should be the Duan Lingtian they're looking for!'
Hong Zhen thought to himself.
Soon after, Jing Yuan whom Hong Zhen had sent out returned as well.
"Jing Yuan, have you verified it? “
When Hong Zhen saw Jing Yuan's return, he immediately asked, "Is the Duan Ling Tian we're looking for the same person as the Duan Ling Tian that everyone is talking about in Windfall Nation?"
"I've verified it. They're the same person."
Jing Yuan nodded. "However, we don't know where he is now, and all the powerhouses are looking for him … It won't be easy for us to find him."
"As expected, they're the same person!"
Hong Zhen's eyes flashed as he said in a deep voice, "Even if we can't find him, we still have to look for him … Moreover, we must pass this news to the higher-ups."
Soon after, the news about Duan Lingtian began to spread to the higher-level branch of the Mountainshade Black Market.
In the end, it reached the Mountainshade Black Market's headquarters.
"Duan Rufeng's son has obtained the Devilseal Tablet?"
At the Mountainshade Black Market's headquarters, Leader Dugu's eyes narrowed immediately when he heard the news. He was also a Devil Cultivator, and he feared the Devilseal Tablet from the bottom of his heart.
