That was right.
If Ling Tian admitted defeat and knelt down to apologize to Zhao Ji, this matter would definitely spread in the Mystical Sky Mansion.
Under such circumstances, no matter how high Ling Tian's innate talent was, nobody would think highly of him.
Even if Lord Mansion Master had the intention of taking him in as a disciple, he would most likely change his mind after this incident.
Zhao Bai Ju and Zhao Hei Tu were instantly relieved.
They ignored Wang Pi's words!
When Wang Pi saw the murderous gleam in Zhao Bai Ju's and Zhao Hei Tu's eyes, horror dawned on him. He noticed Zhao Bai Ju and Zhao Hei Tu were not intimidated by his hint. He immediately transmitted his voice again. "Zhao Bai Ju, Zhao Hei Tu, I know both of you want to protect Zhao Ji, but do you really want to take the risk?"
"Wang Pi, stop bluffing!"
Zhao Bai Ju replied mockingly through Voice Transmission. "As long as Ling Tian kneels down and apologizes to Little Junior Brother today, do you think Lord Mansion Master will still take a liking to him when this matter spreads out?"
Wang Pi did not expect Zhao Bai Ju to think this way. Horror dawned on his face immediately. "Do you think Junior Brother Ling Tian will kneel down and apologize to Zhao Ji? What a fool's dream! "
"You'll find out very soon whether it's a fool's dream or not."
Zhao Bai Ju smirked. "Wang Pi, I advise you not to get involved in this mess! You should know the consequences of offending our Zhao Clan. At that time, even if your master is Vice Palace Master Xiao Yi, he might not be able to protect you. "
A threat!
A blatant threat!
Faced with Zhao Bai Ju's threat, Wang Pi's face turned pale immediately. He knew Zhao Bai Ju was telling the truth.
Due to the existence of the Old Guardian and the Vice Mansion Master of Zhao Clan, the Zhao Clan could be said to be able to cover the sky with one hand in the Mystical Sky Mansion. Those who offended the Zhao Clan usually did not have a good ending.
"Wang Pi, you better think this through. Are you going to go against our Zhao Clan for a new disciple who has just entered the Mystical Sky Mansion?"
Zhao Hei Tu looked at Wang Pi and sneered.
"Senior Brother Wang Pi, this matter has nothing to do with you. You don't need to make enemies with others because of me."
Duan Lingtian looked at Wang Pi and said with a smile, "No matter what, I still have to thank Senior Wang Pi for standing by my side at this time … However, I'll have to ask Senior Wang Pi to step aside and watch. I'll handle it myself."
When Duan Ling Tian reached the end of his sentence, he gave Wang Pi a confident look.
However, in the face of Duan Lingtian's confidence, Wang Pi only thought that Duan Lingtian was afraid that he would be worried, so he deliberately acted this way to reassure him.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, do you think that I, Wang Pi, am the kind of person who would abandon my friends and run away?"
Wang Pi said with a dissatisfied expression. Based on his words, there was no doubt that he wanted to advance and retreat together with Duan Lingtian.
"Me too!"
Wang Fei Xuan chimed in. She wanted to step forward as well, but Duan Lingtian waved his hand and pushed her back.
"Why are you joining in the fun?"
Duan Lingtian turned around and glanced at Wang Fei Xuan with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes. When Duan Lingtian saw Wang Fei Xuan still wanted to step forward stubbornly, he could only send her a Voice Transmission helplessly. "Don't worry … It's just two Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivators. I can still deal with them."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Wang Fei Xuan was dumbstruck as though she was struck by lightning.
It's just two Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivators?
If it was another Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage who said this, Wang Fei Xuan's first thought would be, 'What a boastful tone!'
However, when it was Duan Lingtian who said this, she had a different feeling.
Although she had not known Duan Lingtian for long, she had gained a deeper understanding of him during this short period of time. She knew that if Duan Lingtian was not confident, he would not have said such a thing in such a situation.
"A Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage who can deal with an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator …"
However, Wang Fei Xuan still found it a little inconceivable. This was because she felt it was almost impossible.
However, when she saw the confidence in Duan Lingtian's eyes, she could not help but believe him a little.
When Duan Lingtian saw Wang Fei Xuan did not insist on going forward, he turned around and looked at Wang Pi again before he said with a smile, "Senior Brother Wang Pi, I know you mean well, but these two trash at the bottom of the Mystical Sky Ranking are nothing to me!"
Trash at the bottom of the Mystical Sky Ranking!
The moment Duan Lingtian's words left his mouth, the entire place fell silent.
If these words were said by a Mystical Sky Mansion's disciple who was ranked at the top of the Mystical Sky Ranking, the people present on the scene would not think much of it.
However, the problem was these words were said by a Mystical Sky Mansion's disciple who had not even entered the Mystical Sky Ranking. It gave them a completely different feeling.
"What a boastful tone!"
Zhao Ji was the first to regain his senses. He sneered. "You're just a new disciple who hasn't even entered the Mystical Sky Ranking, but you actually dare to look down on the powerhouses on the Mystical Sky Ranking? How arrogant!"
"Senior Brother Bai Ju, Senior Brother Hei Tu, since he looks down on both of you, you should teach him a lesson first before making him kneel in front of me and apologize to me!"
Zhao Ji said viciously as he looked at Zhao Bai Ju and Zhao Hei Tu.
"Don't worry, Little Junior Brother. After I've taught him a lesson, I'll make him kneel in front of you obediently and apologize to you."
Zhao Hei Tu stuck out his tongue and licked his dry lips as a vicious smile appeared on his face. His piercing gaze landed on Duan Lingtian. "Brat, I really don't know where you get your confidence from! Do you really think you're on par with an Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse just because you've broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage and defeated the Luo Brothers when they joined forces? "
On the way here, Zhao Hei Tu had learned about what had happened from Zhao Ji's lackey.
Zhao Hei Tu was also a Heaven Palace's disciple so he had heard of the Luo Brothers.
Whoosh!
The moment his words left his mouth, Zhao Hei Tu's body moved and shot toward Duan Lingtian, standing in front of Duan Lingtian.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
At this moment, the sound of wind whistling reverberated in the air.
One of the sound of wind whistling was caused by Wang Pi's moving body. He shot toward Duan Lingtian in an attempt to help Duan Lingtian deal with Zhao Hei Tu.
Although Duan Lingtian was very confident, he thought Duan Lingtian was just trying to comfort him. He did not think a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage would be able to compete with an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator since both of them were not on the same level at all. If the latter fought the former, he could easily crush the former.
However, although Wang Pi's speed was fast, there was someone else who was even faster than him.
When Wang Pi noticed someone had appeared in front of Duan Lingtian, he came to a halt in the distance. At the same time, he looked at the person standing in front of Duan Lingtian in shock. "How could it be him? Junior Brother Ling Tian knows him?"
The person who appeared in front of Duan Lingtian first was a tall and sturdy young man. The young man's facial features were well-defined. He could not be considered handsome, but he gave off a feeling of determination.
With just a glance, one could tell he was a tough guy!
"Senior Brother Gu Li?"
When Zhao Hei Tu saw the sturdy young man who appeared in front of Duan Lingtian, horror dawned on his face. A hint of dread could be seen in his eyes. "You … You know Ling Tian?"
"Gu Li?"
Originally, Duan Lingtian was puzzled when a stranger appeared in front of him. Moreover, this stranger seemed to be helping him. He did not know this person and was certain he had never seen this person before.
However, when he heard Zhao Hei Tu's words, he finally found out the sturdy young man's name was Gu Li.
"Senior Brother Gu Li!"
When Zhao Bai Ju saw the sturdy young man who appeared in front of Duan Lingtian and shielded Duan Lingtian behind him, his expression turned solemn immediately.
"Senior Brother Gu Li!"
"Senior Brother Gu Li!"
…
At the same time, the Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples present on the scene, including Wang Pi, bowed respectfully at Gu Li.
When the group of Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples faced Gu Li, they were even more respectful than when they faced the Vice Palace Master of Heaven Palace, Xiao Yi.
Upon seeing this, Duan Lingtian was stunned. He did not expect this sturdy young man who suddenly appeared in front of him with the intention of protecting him would have such a high position in the eyes of the Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples.
He could see that when the group of Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples bowed to Gu Li, all of them showed respect from the bottom of their hearts.
"Damn it! How does he know Gu Li?! "
Seeing this, Zhao Ji's expression turned somewhat ugly.
Although he was known as the strongest person among the second generation in the Mystical Sky Mansion, it was only a title given to him by others because of his background. His grandfather was one of the two great Guardians of the Mystical Sky Mansion, and his father was the Vice Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion.
However, there was one person he was wary of among his peers in the Mystical Sky Mansion.
This person was none other than Gu Li!
Gu Li was the son of the other old Guardian of the Mystical Sky Mansion. Due to the fact that he had a son at an old age, the old Guardian of Mystical Sky Mansion doted on his only son very much. As long as it was something he could give, he would give it to his son unconditionally.
Gu Li did not let him down and became the number one genius in the Mystical Sky Mansion for several hundred years!
Naturally, that was before Duan Lingtian had arrived.
After Duan Lingtian appeared, the innate talent he displayed was even more monstrous than Gu Li. One could say that he had snatched away the title of the number one genius in the Mystical Sky Mansion for several hundred years from Gu Li the moment he arrived.
Gu Li was actually in his early fifties. He was in the prime of his life, but his cultivation base was already at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage!
Not only that, but Gu Li was also the strongest person on the Mystical Sky Mansion's Mystical Sky Ranking!
In the Mystical Sky Mansion, as long as a Mystical Sky Mansion's disciple broke through the Eminent Saint Stage and entered the Divine Saint Stage, his name would be removed from the Mystical Sky Ranking and he would become an elder.
The fact that Gu Li was the strongest person on the Mystical Sky Ranking was enough to prove his strength was invincible below the Divine Saint Stage in the Mystical Sky Mansion!
"When did Senior Brother Gu Li arrive?"
"I didn't notice."
"It seems like Senior Brother Gu Li intends to stand up for Ling Tian."
"As it turns out, Ling Tian knows Senior Brother Gu Li. No wonder he was so calm earlier. As it turns out, this is his trump card."
…
The surrounding Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples whispered among themselves. All of them felt that the reason Duan Lingtian was so calm was because he knew Gu Li would appear to help him.
Duan Lingtian was, naturally, rendered speechless when he heard the whispers in the surroundings.
