The sectless cultivators present on the scene felt proud after Duan Lingtian killed Xu Jing.
In fact, let alone the Rising Sky Mansion's district, even in the entire Dobusei Subterranean and the Dao Martial Saint Land, sectless cultivators were usually suppressed by those who had a force backing them up.
After all, those who had a force backing them up would usually have a better cultivation environment and resources.
As for sectless cultivators, they were born and nurtured by Heaven and Earth.
However, today, Duan Lingtian had killed Xu Jing as a sectless cultivator.
Who was Xu Jing?
The Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion!
If it was before today, although many people would be surprised when Duan Lingtian killed Xu Jing, it would not be as exaggerated as it was now.
Today, Xu Jing's performance was completely different from before.
Not only did he kill the best among the sectless cultivators, but he even managed to kill his old rival, Zhong Gu, even when the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi had joined forces.
In fact, in the past, the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi had the strength to easily crush him.
However, it only took him a year to break through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage from the Early Refined Saint Stage, giving him the strength to become the strongest person among the middle-aged generation in the Rising Sky Mansion's district!
Naturally, if it was not for Duan Lingtian, Xu Jing would have become the strongest person among the middle-aged generation in the Rising Sky Mansion's district after the Rising Sky Ranking Battle ended.
Unfortunately, Duan Lingtian's appearance, or to be more precise, the appearance of Duan Lingtian, Li Feng, had not only pulled him down from the clouds, but it had also caused him to fall into hell, never to be able to rise again.
Due to this reason, Duan Lingtian's killing of Xu Jing shocked everyone present on the scene.
More importantly, Duan Lingtian was not more than forty years old!
"He's not more than forty years old, but his cultivation base is already at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage. This Li Feng is really monstrous! Previously, he seemed to have the intention of joining either the Sky Hurdle Mansion or the Raging Wave Mansion. No matter if it's the Sky Hurdle Mansion or the Raging Wave Mansion, once he joins us, it won't be impossible for us to become a quasi third-rate force in a few decades! "
Suddenly, someone cried out in alarm.
Everyone's eyes immediately shifted to Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang. The two of them were the representatives of the Sky Hurdle Mansion and Raging Wave Mansion respectively. Duan Lingtian had also expressed his intention to join the forces behind them.
Ren Zhong and Liu Hongguang looked at each other and saw the hostility in each other's eyes.
After all, there was only one Li Feng, and they couldn't split it in half.
"Li Feng, as the Grand Elder of the Rising Sky Mansion, I'll give you a chance to live. As long as you join the Rising Sky Mansion and swear on the lightning penalty oath that you'll serve the Rising Sky Mansion wholeheartedly, I'll spare your life on behalf of the Rising Sky Mansion! Not only that, but the Rising Sky Mansion will also nurture you without any reservation. It's not impossible for you to become the next Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion in the future. "
At this moment, a Voice Transmission entered Duan Lingtian's ears. It was none other than the Voice Transmission from Xu Cen, the Grand Elder of the Rising Sky Mansion.
Based on Xu Cen's words, it was obvious the Rising Sky Mansion would not look for trouble with Duan Lingtian as long as he was willing to swear on the lightning penalty oath.
Although Xu Cen wished for nothing more than to get rid of the murderer of his grandson, after witnessing the monstrous innate talent of the other party, even he could not help but cherish the other party's talent.
If he could bring such a genius back, it would definitely be a great achievement.
At that time, nobody would blame him for Xu Jing's death.
As for the Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion, although he loved his son very much, in Xu Cen's opinion, as long as he was not out of his mind, he would definitely realize how important Li Feng was to the Rising Sky Mansion.
The Rising Sky Mansion used to be a quasi third-rate force before it was reduced to a fourth-rate force.
Due to this reason, the Rising Sky Mansion was more eager than any other fourth-rate force to become a quasi third-rate force again.
In the face of the clan's interest, personal enmity could be put aside.
"Elder Xu, did I hear wrongly?"
Upon hearing Xu Cen's Voice Transmission, Duan Lingtian looked at him casually and said, "You're asking me to join the Rising Sky Mansion? Even if you can put aside your grandson's enmity, don't tell me the Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion can also put aside his son's enmity and not make things difficult for me? "
The moment Duan Lingtian's words left his mouth, the entire place burst into an uproar.
No one expected that Xu Cen, the person who wanted to kill Li Feng the most, would open his mouth to recruit Li Feng.
Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang, on the other hand, could understand Xu Cen. After all, Li Feng's innate talent was just too monstrous. As long as he was around and did not die prematurely, it would not be difficult for him to lead a fourth-rate force to become a quasi third-rate force in the future.
For a moment, their eyes were filled with hostility as they looked at Xu Cen.
"Little Brother Li Feng, don't believe him. He's most likely trying to trick you into leaving with him and killing you halfway."
Ren Zhong sent a Voice Transmission to Duan Lingtian, trying to sow discord between Duan Lingtian and Xu Cen. He did not wish for Duan Lingtian to join the Rising Sky Mansion even though he could understand why Xu Cen would make such a decision.
Liu Hong Guang sent a Voice Transmission as well. The meaning of his words was similar to Ren Zhong's Voice Transmission. He was also trying to sow discord between Duan Lingtian and Xu Cen.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian could guess their thoughts. He could not help but laugh inwardly. However, he still replied to reassure them that he would definitely not join the Rising Sky Mansion.
Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang were very satisfied with Duan Lingtian's reply since it meant they would have one less competitor.
"The Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion actually wants Li Feng to join the Rising Sky Mansion?"
At the same time, many people regained their senses and found it hard to believe.
"Don't tell me he's forgotten that his grandson was killed by Li Feng? Did he forget that the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion was also killed by Li Feng? "
Someone asked curiously.
"You don't understand, right? With Li Feng's innate talent, let alone killing the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, even if he killed the Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, as long as he's willing to join the Rising Sky Mansion, the people in the Rising Sky Mansion will still welcome him. A Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage below the age of forty is not a joke. "
"That's right. If such a genius Martial Cultivator is given enough time to grow, it won't be difficult for him to lead a fourth-rate force to become a quasi third-rate force in the future."
"In front of the future of the force behind him, personal enmity seems insignificant."
…
The crowd discussed among themselves. Gradually, they felt that Xu Cen, the Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion, was right for him to make such a decision.
When the group of people from Rising Sky Mansion heard Duan Lingtian's words, they were furious. They felt the Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion, Xu Cen, was embarrassing the Rising Sky Mansion.
However, now that they had calmed down, they felt Xu Cen was not wrong.
"Don't worry. As long as you swear on the lightning penalty oath to serve the Rising Sky Mansion for life, I can guarantee that not only me, but even Lord Mansion Master won't make things difficult for you."
Xu Cen was not angry when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. Instead, he promised bluntly.
"Looks like your Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion is as cold-blooded as you. I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in joining such a cold-blooded force."
Duan Lingtian rejected him directly.
Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang smiled when they saw Duan Lingtian had rejected Xu Cen. However, Xu Cen's expression was extremely grave.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian looked at Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang and transmitted his voice to them, "Vice Mansion Master Ren, Elder Liu, I'm afraid none of the people from Rising Sky Mansion will be able to enter the Rising Sky Ranking. I'm worried that Xu Cen will lie in ambush and wait for an opportunity to attack me after he leaves with his men. For this reason, I'd like to leave first and wait for all of you at the Hengduan Mountain Range 100 miles to the west. Is that okay? "
When Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang heard this, they looked at each other and nodded.
Indeed.
If Xu Cen left first with his men and did not really leave, he would lie in ambush outside the Nimble Valley and launch a sneak attack.
Even they would not be able to guard against it.
Moreover, although the strongest person in the group of people from Rising Sky Mansion was Xu Cen, there was another Vice Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion in a city near the Nimble Valley.
If Xu Cen went to greet him, it would not be difficult for him to kill Duan Lingtian with a sneak attack.
Due to this reason, they agreed to Duan Lingtian's Voice Transmission. "Sure. You can wait for us at the Hengduan Mountain Range 100 miles to the west. We know where that place is. In any case, up until now, although the Rising Sky Ranking Battle has yet to begin, I'm sure no one will object to it since you're ranked first in the Rising Sky Ranking.
After all, your strength speaks for itself. You deserve to be ranked first in the Rising Sky Ranking. "
Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang told Duan Lingtian.
"In that case, thank you, Vice Mansion Master Ren and Elder Liu."
After Duan Lingtian expressed his gratitude, he flew away under the watchful eyes of the others and left.
When Xu Cen saw Duan Lingtian had actually left the Nimble Chess Game, his eyes flashed coldly. He instantly wanted to chase after him.
Unfortunately, as long as Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang were there, he would not be able to do anything.
"Vice Mansion Master Ren, Elder Liu, what's the meaning of this?"
Xu Cen's expression was grave. "Now that my Rising Sky Mansion's disciples no longer have any hope of being ranked in the Rising Sky Ranking, don't tell me I can't even bring my people away?"
"Elder Xu, you can leave if you want, but you'll have to wait for 15 minutes … The same goes for the people from the Rising Sky Mansion," Ren Zhong said indifferently.
Liu Hong Guang did not say anything.
When he saw the people from the Raging Wave Mansion flying out and blocking the people from the Rising Sky Mansion with a wave of his hand, one could see his decision.
At this moment, no matter how stupid Xu Cen was, he knew Ren Zhong, Liu Hong Guang, and Li Feng had come to an agreement.
Although he was furious, there was nothing he could do.
When Duan Lingtian left the Nimble Chess Game and the Nimble Valley, Ren Zhong looked at the surroundings and said loudly, "Everyone, the Rising Sky Ranking Battle this time can be considered as the most exciting one in the past several hundreds of years …"
