"Well, this is what happened."
Feng Wu Dao sighed and told him everything in detail, "After you left, not only did the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family set their eyes on us, but even the powerhouses sent by the foreign forces had their eyes on us as well. After all, we're the only people they know who's related to you, the person who possesses the Devilseal Tablet."
"However, after we swore on the lightning penalty oath that we didn't know where you were, they didn't make things difficult for us … Perhaps, in their opinion, if they killed even one of us and the news spread, it would scare you, causing you to hide even more secretly."
Feng Wu Dao continued to say.
Duan Lingtian nodded. He had long guessed this. This was also the reason he left his family and friends behind when he left.
As long as he was not exposed and was not found, his family and friends would not be in trouble. Apart from knowing him and his origin, they did not know where he had gone.
"Then, what's going on with Senior Brother? Why is he in the Imperial Palace? "
Duan Lingtian's frown deepened. He really could not figure out what the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family was trying to do.
"Master Bai Li had broken through to the Pristine Saint Stage some time ago and became a Four Star Saint Inscription Master not long after he broke through. This is undoubtedly a joyous matter to the Situ Clan. After all, Master Bai Li is their Interim Advisor. However, not long after the news spread out, someone from the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family came and took Master Bai Li away. "
Sima Chang Feng's eyes flashed coldly as he said, "At that time, the person from the Imperial Family was extremely arrogant. After Master Bai Li refused to enter the Imperial Palace to become the Imperial Family's exclusive Saint Inscription Master, he actually forcefully took Master Bai Li away. The Clan Leader of Situ Clan and his son repeatedly tried to stop him, but it was to no avail. Just like us, they could only watch as Master Bai Li was taken away.
However, the Clan Leader of Situ Clan and his son can't be blamed for this matter. "
When Sima reached the end of his sentence, he looked at Duan Lingtian and added as though he was afraid Duan Lingtian would vent his anger on the Clan Leader of Situ Clan and his son.
"Tell me everything that happened back then in full detail."
Duan Lingtian said in a deep voice.
Then, with Chen Shao Shuai and Nangong Yi's indignant narration, Duan Lingtian also understood the ins and outs of the matter.
Three months ago, Bai Li Hong had broken through to the Pristine Saint Stage and became a Four Star Saint Inscription Master.
Two months ago, the people from the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family came. The leader was a Revered Elder who was at the peak of the Pristine Saint Stage. After he arrived at the Situ Clan, he was extremely arrogant. He ignored Bai Li Hong's objection and ordered his men to capture him.
The Situ Family Patriarch and his son tried to stop him, but they were both injured by him.
"If it weren't for the fact that you and your father are relatives of the emperor, you would have died without a doubt!"
This was what the person said to the Situ Family Patriarch and his son before he took Bai Li Hong away.
"How arrogant!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed with a sharp light. His face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, and the cold air was oppressive.
He was merely at the peak of the Pristine Saint Stage. Did he really think he was invincible?
"I know Senior Brother's character very well. If he's unwilling, it's useless even if the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family forces him again and again. It has already been two months, but the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family still hasn't released him?"
Duan Lingtian asked in a deep voice.
The moment his words left his mouth, Duan Lingtian noticed Feng Wu Dao and the others were hesitating to speak. His heart skipped a beat as he asked anxiously, "Could it be that something has happened to Senior Brother?"
A terrifying killing intent immediately surged out of Duan Lingtian's body.
When the killing intent spread out, even Feng Wu Dao and the others felt chills running down their spines. At the same time, they could feel Duan Lingtian's fury.
"Duan Lingtian, according to the news from the Imperial Palace, the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family is still torturing Master Bai Li to force him to become a Four Star Saint Inscription Master. However, Master Bai Li has yet to agree to it, and it has been dragging on until now. Although Master Bai Li's cultivation base has entered the Pristine Saint Stage, he's still a mortal after all. I heard he can't hold on any longer. "
Nangong Yi said with grief and indignation on his face.
"Senior Brother!"
The moment Nangong Yi's words left his mouth, Duan Lingtian's body suddenly trembled. His eyes turned red as the killing intent on his body became even more intense. He gritted his teeth as he said word by word, "Windfall! Wind! Nation! Emperor! Nation! "
At this moment, Duan Lingtian's fury had reached its peak, and he was on the verge of going berserk.
At this moment, Chen Shao Shuai looked at Duan Lingtian and said solemnly, "Duan Lingtian, although I know it's unbearable to stay calm, I still have to advise you to calm down. Actually, Uncle Feng has already asked Sect Leader Zi Yun of Drift Blaze Sect for help regarding this matter. Initially, Sect Leader Zi Yun said the strongest person in the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family is on par with her in terms of strength.
However, who would've thought after you left, a powerhouse at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage came to the capital of Windfall Nation? He came for the Devilseal Tablet in your hands. Then, the Imperial Family treated him as a guest of honor. Sect Leader Zi Yun wanted to save Master Bai Li, but she was heavily injured by him. "
When Chen Shao Shuai reached the end of his sentence, his face was filled with rage.
"The peak of the Refined Saint Stage?"
Duan Lingtian sneered.
Although he had only killed one Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, that Devil Cultivator had just broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage.
However, he did not rely on any external force when he fought with that Devil Cultivator.
If he used the Devilseal Tablet, he would be able to kill that Devil Cultivator in just a blink of an eye!
Even if he did not use the Devilseal Tablet and only used the Jasper Celestial Sword, he would be able to kill that Devil Cultivator in just a blow!
With his current cultivation base, he could even kill an ordinary Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse if he channeled the Sun True Origin into the Jasper Celestial Sword.
However, Duan Lingtian was still touched when he heard Sect Leader Zi Yun of Drift Blaze Sect was injured because of his Senior Brother. After all, he was not related to Sect Leader Zi Yun at all. She had only helped him because of Tian Wu.
'After this matter is over, I'll go to the Drift Blaze Sect to express my gratitude and visit Tian Wu.'
With this thought in mind, Duan Lingtian made up his mind.
"Don't tell anyone about my return, including the Clan Leader of Situ Clan and his son. As for Senior Brother, he'll definitely return to the Situ Clan today. Moreover, the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family won't dare to touch all of you anymore!"
Faced with Feng Wu Dao and the others who were looking at him worriedly, Duan Lingtian felt warmth in his heart.
The moment his words left his mouth, he disappeared into thin air in front of Feng Wu Dao and the others. Feng Wu Dao and the others who were not prepared for this were stunned.
They only regained their senses after a long while.
"What did Duan Lingtian mean by that last sentence? He'll be able to save Master Bai Li? "
Nangong Yi asked in disbelief.
"That's impossible! The Windfall Nation's Imperial Family is already powerful. There are a few Refined Saint Stage powerhouses guarding them. Now that there's another powerhouse at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage from another force, saving Master Bai Li from the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family is no different from snatching food from a tiger's mouth! Even if Duan Lingtian's cultivation base has improved a lot, it's still impossible for him to be a threat to a Refined Saint Stage powerhouse, right? "
Chen Shao Shuai shook his head. He did not think Duan Lingtian was capable of saving Master Bai Li from the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family.
"Perhaps, he'll be able to think of another way or look for help from other powerhouses."
Nangong Chen chimed in. It was rare for him to speak.
"No matter what, since he said so, we'll just wait for the news. From the beginning until now, he has never done anything that he's not confident in. It should be no exception this time as well."
Although Feng Wu Dao was also shocked and found it hard to believe, the moment he recalled Duan Lingtian's past, he subconsciously felt he should trust Duan Lingtian.
Upon hearing Feng Wu Dao's words, the others finally understood.
That was right.
Duan Lingtian had never disappointed them.
Throughout his journey, Duan Lingtian's life was like a heavenly book.
Sima Chang Feng, in particular, was the person who knew Duan Lingtian's background the best.
Once upon a time, Duan Lingtian was just a disciple with another surname from a small clan in a remote corner of the Mortal Continent. However, in the end, he became a person who stood at the peak of Cloud Continent.
Now that he had arrived at the Dao Martial Saint Land, he continued to soar as though nothing could stop him.
Due to this reason, Sima Chang Feng was also very confident in Duan Lingtian.
As for Xiong Quan and Gold Thug, although they could not stay by Duan Lingtian's side like before due to the gap in their strength, they had unconditional trust in their Young Master and Master since they were once by his side.
If he said he could save Master Bai Li, he would definitely be able to save him!
Regardless of what Feng Wu Dao and the others thought, after Duan Lingtian left the Situ Clan's estate, he went straight to the Windfall Nation's Imperial Palace.
The Windfall Nation's Imperial Palace was also the residence of the Windfall Nation's Imperial Family.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian had used the Disguising Secret Tactic to change his face to the face that was so ordinary that no one would be able to recognize him in the crowd anymore.
With his current strength, it was naturally a piece of cake for him to enter the Windfall Nation's Imperial Palace.
Soon after, he found the dungeon in the depths of the palace where Bai Li Hong was locked up and met with him.
"Senior Brother!"
Although Duan Ling Tian was prepared for this, he could not help but tremble when he saw Bai Li Hong who was covered in wounds and blood. His eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Bai Li Hong.
"Who's there?!"
Duan Lingtian appeared like a ghost, so the people who were watching Bai Li Hong did not notice him at all. It was only when he called out Bai Li Hong's name that the people from the Imperial Family who were watching Bai Li Hong snapped out of their daze.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian would not show mercy to these people who heard him calling Bai Li Hong Senior Brother.
Among these people, there was only one Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage Martial Cultivator.
To Duan Lingtian, killing them was as easy as killing a chicken or cutting grass.
Soon after, more than ten people who were watching Bai Li Hong fell to the ground and stopped breathing.
