"So it's the Fifth Prince, I've truly been rude."
Duan Lingtian glanced at the carriage and smiled lightly.
"If the Fifth Prince has no other matters, then I'll be leaving first."
After Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he continued walking forward.
"Wait."
Right at this moment, the Fifth Prince's voice that didn't contain any emotions sounded out once more.
Duan Lingtian stopped in his tracks.
He was extremely curious, what exactly did this Fifth Prince want to do?
"Kneel down and kowtow three times … The enmity between you and my cousin will be written off at this point."
The Fifth Prince's voice continued to sound out, and it contained an unquestionable tone.
Kneel down and kowtow?
Duan Lingtian's face went slightly grim, and rage arose in his eyes.
"Cousin, I don't want him to kowtow, I want him to die!"
Tong Li's icy cold voice sounded out from the carriage, and her tone seemed as if there was no room for discussion.
"Two idiots!"
Duan Lingtian sneered and continued walking forward.
"Duan Lingtian, if you leave just like this, you'll surely regret it."
The Fifth Prince's voice continued to sound out.
"Sorry, there's never been the word regret in my, Duan Lingtian's, dictionary!"
Duan Lingtian's face seemed to be covered in a layer of frost, and he didn't care about the Fifth Prince's threat in the slightest.
A man had gold beneath his knees, and he knelt before the heavens, the earth, and his parents.
Even the supreme Emperor wouldn't be able to make him bow and bend the knee.
Not to mention a mere prince!
"Presumptuous!"
The white browed old man's face went grim, and a terrifying aura was emitted from his body, as if he wanted to chase after Duan Lingtian and kill him on the spot.
Duan Lingtian stopped moving, and his eyes squinted as a cold smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
If this white browed old man dared to make a move, he would use the Bone Corrosion Inscription to annihilate him at the first possible moment!
"Senior Bai, let's go back."
The Fifth Prince's voice sounded out, and it faintly contained a trace of coldness.
The white browed old man caught his breath and suppressed the rage in his heart, then he drove the carriage away.
Within the carriage.
Tong Li looked unhappy, "Cousin, didn't you say you would help me vent my anger? Why did you only ask that Duan Lingtian to kneel? "
The Fifth Prince smiled lightly. "Cousin, for some people, death isn't the greatest punishment for them … Just like this Duan Ling Tian, he has an unyielding character, and asking him to kneel down and kowtow is more difficult than asking him to die! However, I can be considered to have given him a chance today … In the future, even if I were to really kill him, the Duan Clan would have nothing to say. "
Tong Li came to a realization and felt a little embarrassed. "Cousin, I misunderstood you. However, didn't that Duan Lingtian refuse to return to the Duan Clan and didn't admit that he was a disciple of the Duan Clan? Cousin, why are you still worried about the Duan Clan? "
The Fifth Prince's eyes focused. "Even though it's like that, the bloodline of the Duan Clan's direct descendant flows in his body after all … Don't worry, Cousin will absolutely not let off a person that bullies you. I'll let him live for a few more days."
As he spoke, a doting expression appeared on the Fifth Prince's face.
"Thank you, Cousin."
Tong Li smiled, and her eyes flickered with a vicious sheen, as if she'd already seen the scene of Duan Lingtian being torn into pieces by her.
On the other side.
"This Fifth Prince is simply even more arrogant than the Third Prince!"
As Duan Lingtian walked on the road, his heart went slightly cold. "You better not offend me … Otherwise, even if you're a descendant of the Imperial Family, I still won't show mercy!"
Today, because of Su Li's departure, Duan Lingtian's mood wasn't good to begin with, and it faintly ignited flames of rage.
Now, the appearance of the Fifth Prince and Tong Li, as well as their condescending attitude of looking down at him, was like adding fuel to the fire, causing his rage to skyrocket and become difficult to restrain.
Only when he arrived near the Divine Might Marquis Estate did Duan Lingtian's expression ease up, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
In the entire Imperial City, besides his family and a few friends, only the Divine Might Marquis Estate was able to warm his heart.
When Duan Lingtian arrived at the entrance of the Divine Might Marquis Estate, a young soldier guarding the entrance took a step forward and shouted sternly at him. "Stop!"
Slap!
Before Duan Lingtian could speak. Another middle-aged soldier caught up and raised his hand to slap the back of the young soldier's head.
"Brother Zhang, why did you hit me?"
The young soldier turned around and glared angrily at the middle-aged soldier.
The middle-aged soldier paid no attention to the former and respectfully welcomed Duan Lingtian into the Divine Might Marquis Estate. "Young Master Ling Tian, please come in."
"You know me?"
Duan Lingtian was slightly surprised. He remembered that when he came here the last time, this person wasn't among the few soldiers guarding the entrance.
"Young Master Ling Tian, when Vice General Pang invited you into the estate the last time, I just happened to see you."
The middle-aged soldier said respectfully. He'd clearly seen that when Vice General Pang invited this youth in, Vice General Pang was extremely respectful and didn't dare slight this youth in the slightest.
Duan Lingtian nodded and said, "You go about your business, I'll go find the Marquis myself."
After he finished speaking, Duan Lingtian entered the Divine Might Marquis Estate with ease.
"Brother Zhang, who exactly is he?"
The young soldier rubbed the back of his head, but he wasn't angry anymore, as he'd realized that the violet-clothed youth wasn't simple.
"Humph! Kid, you're really a newborn calf that isn't afraid of a tiger … As for who he is, I'm not too sure either. I only know that when he came last time, it was Vice General Pang who personally went to invite him. Moreover, it's said that when he left, the Marquis and Junior Marquis personally sent him off. "
The middle-aged soldier had a fearful expression as he said, "Now, do you think you deserved to be hit?"
The young soldier's face went pale from fright, and he hurriedly nodded. "Deserved! Deserved! "
After entering the Divine Might Marquis Estate, Duan Lingtian directly went to the audience hall.
After the soldier guarding the entrance of the audience hall went to report, Duan Lingtian once again saw the Divine Might Marquis, Nie Yuan.
"Little Tian."
Nie Yuan had a brilliant smile on his face when he saw Duan Lingtian. "What? You've come this time because you need Uncle Nie's help?"
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled. "Uncle Nie really has god-like foresight."
Nie Yuan laughed as he scolded. "You little fellow, don't play this game with Uncle Nie … Let me guess, it should be about the Su Clan, right?"
"Uncle Nie, you're quite well-informed."
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed as he lightly smiled.
"In Paladin Academy, two students from the Su Clan tried to assassinate another student, but were killed instead … The Vice Dean, Zhan Xiong, was enraged. He personally went to the Su Clan and reduced the Su Clan's recommendation quota from five to three! Looks like that Vice Dean Zhan takes good care of you. "
Nie Yuan looked at Duan Lingtian with a spurious smile.
Duan Ling Tian's eyes focused. He knew that the Vice Dean had gone to the Su Clan, but he didn't know that the Vice Dean had reduced the number of people that the Su Clan recommended to enter Paladin Academy every year to three …
For a moment, a trace of gratitude arose in Duan Lingtian's heart towards the old man.
"Speak, what business do you have with Uncle Nie?"
Nie Yuan dotingly glanced at Duan Lingtian as he asked.
"Uncle Nie, I want information on the Su Clan's businesses in the Imperial City, including information on the people in charge of those businesses."
Duan Lingtian stated the purpose of his visit.
"You're here for this?"
Nie Yuan was slightly surprised. He thought that Duan Lingtian wanted him to step forward and suppress the Su Clan's spirit, but he never imagined that Duan Lingtian actually came for this …
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"There's nothing else?"
Nie Yuan asked again.
"Nothing else."
Duan Lingtian shook his head. He came to the Divine Might Marquis Estate precisely for this information.
As for other matters, he could deal with them himself.
"Alright, come get it in three days."
Nie Yuan deeply glanced at Duan Lingtian, but didn't ask any further.
"Thank you, Uncle Nie. Since it's like this, I'll go back first so as to avoid worrying my mother. “
Duan Lingtian said again.
Subsequently, Nie Yuan personally sent Duan Lingtian out of the Divine Might Marquis Estate.
This caused the rash guard to feel a lingering fear in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't offend this violet-clothed youth earlier, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Early the next morning, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but frown as soon as he arrived at the entrance of Paladin Academy.
The restlessness of the two little pythons and his acute Spiritual Force told him that someone was secretly watching him …
"Hmph!"
Duan Lingtian stopped in his tracks and turned around to look into the distance, the corners of his mouth curling into a sneer.
He didn't care who sent them.
If they dared to show themselves, he didn't mind turning them into corpses.
Outside Paladin Academy, in a secluded alley, two figures stood there, ramrod straight.
"He seems to have noticed us?"
One of the middle-aged men with a thin figure had a surprised expression.
"Seems like it."
The other middle-aged man nodded.
"I heard he's only at the ninth level of the Core Formation Stage … Logically speaking, it's impossible for him to notice us."
The former went silent for a moment before speaking again.
"Maybe it's a coincidence."
The latter was slightly uncertain as well.
After Duan Lingtian walked into Paladin Academy, he noticed that the feeling of being watched had disappeared. He walked into the classroom as usual.
An entire morning passed by in the midst of Sima Chang Feng's long-winded lecture …
During lunch, Duan Lingtian and the others were slightly unaccustomed to the absence of Su Li, so they tacitly maintained their silence.
At dusk, after walking out of Paladin Academy's entrance and separating from Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun, Duan Lingtian once again felt that someone was spying on him, and it wasn't just one person.
"It seems to be the same two people from this morning."
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart and walked into a remote alley. In this alley, he'd already successively lured and killed two batches of people that wanted to kill him.
But this time, when he walked into the alley and slowly walked forward, those two people still didn't show themselves.
"Who the hell are they?"
Duan Lingtian frowned as he lost his patience.
"Hmph! Since you two aren't taking the initiative, then I'll take the initiative! "
Duan Lingtian's eyes focused as he sped up, disappearing at the end of the alley in the blink of an eye.
The two middle-aged men appeared in the alley and swiftly walked forward, but they were no longer able to find any traces of Duan Lingtian …
Although they were Nascent Soul Stage martial artists, they weren't Inscription Masters and their Spiritual Force wasn't very sharp.
Moreover, they didn't have the tracking and anti-tracking abilities that Duan Lingtian had from his previous life as a special forces soldier and mercenary.
"He actually ran away under our noses."
The thin middle-aged man had a bitter smile on his face.
"We can be sure that our feeling this morning wasn't wrong. He has indeed noticed us."
The other middle-aged man had a serious expression.
"You two, is playing hide and seek fun?"
