"Then, does this mean the people from the Dobusei Subterranean were actually abandoned?"
After listening to Huo Lao's words, Duan Lingtian finally understood.
"That's most likely the case."
Huo Lao nodded. Then, he bade farewell to Duan Lingtian and went to repair the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
Due to the fact that he had reached a bottleneck, Duan Lingtian was not in a hurry to continue cultivating. Instead, he left the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and walked out of his room. "I wonder how she's doing now that such a thing has happened."
Zhu Lüqi, the Palace Master of Heaven Palace, had betrayed the Mystical Sky Mansion for the sake of the Devil Dao Cultivation Method, the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. This was undoubtedly a great blow to his disciples!
Wang Fei Xuan was also one of Zhu Lüqi's direct disciples.
Duan Lingtian immediately went to Wang Fei Xuan's residence. However, he discovered that Wang Fei Xuan's residence was empty.
"She's not here?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head and prepared to return.
At this moment, a few figures flashed past him. These few Heaven Palace's disciples seemed to be in a hurry.
While they were on their way, they did not stop talking to each other.
"Let's go! Let's go and watch the show. If we're late, the show will come to an end! "
One of the Heaven Palace's disciples said in a hurried tone.
"Come to think of it, they're really innocent. To think that they, as disciples, have to bear the consequences of Lord Palace Master's actions … The few people from the Zhao Clan are the best among the Heaven Palace's disciples. It's said that one of them has broken through to the Early Eminent Saint Stage a few days ago!"
"He's still a Heaven Palace's disciple even though he has broken through to the Early Eminent Saint Stage and hasn't entered the Mystical Sky Ranking or the Main Mansion. For this reason, even if the Zhao Clan's disciple is an Early Eminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator, it's not against the rules if he wants to teach Lord Palace Master's direct disciples a lesson."
"Even Lord Palace Master's direct disciples who have entered the Mystical Sky Ranking and the Main Mansion can't interfere in today's matter. After all, according to our Mystical Sky Mansion's rules, Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples who have entered the Main Mansion can't take the initiative to fight with the disciples from the four palaces."
…
The few people's words entered Duan Lingtian's ears.
"The few Heaven Palace's direct disciples from the Palace Master's direct disciples are the Palace Master's direct disciples from the Main mansion? Heaven's Heaven, and he hasn't even entered the Mystical Sky Ranking's that mean he hasn't entered the Mystical Sky Ranking??? to the Mystical Mystical Heaven? "
Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow. "It seems like he wants to rely on his Eminent Saint Stage cultivation base to bully the Palace Master's direct disciples. Don't tell me Great Young Miss Wang is there as well?"
The moment Duan Lingtian thought of this, he followed the few people who were passing by.
He did not know the other direct disciples of the former Palace Master of Heaven Palace, Zhu Lüqi. Even if he heard they were being bullied, he would not interfere.
However, he suspected the reason Wang Fei Xuan was not at her residence was most likely because she was with the other direct disciples of Zhu Lüqi.
The few Heaven Palace's disciples soon discovered Duan Lingtian was following them.
Naturally, this was also because Duan Lingtian had intentionally approached them and had no intention of hiding his tracks.
"Senior Brother Ling!"
"Senior Brother Ling Tian!"
…
When the few of them recognized Duan Lingtian, they came to a halt and bowed respectfully at Duan Lingtian.
Although Duan Ling Tian might have entered the Mystical Sky Mansion later than them, in this world where only the strong ones were respected, apart from those who were related by blood, one's age and status would not be determined by one's age. Instead, one's status would be determined by one's strength.
Although Duan Lingtian was younger than them, his strength was far above them.
Due to this reason, they addressed him as Senior Brother very sincerely.
"En."
At this moment, Duan Lingtian arrived next to the few of them and nodded at them with a smile as a greeting.
When the few of them saw Duan Lingtian's smile, they felt as though they were bathed in a spring breeze. They could not help but sigh emotionally.
This Senior Brother Ling Tian did not put on any airs at all. He was unlike those who were slightly more capable and had their eyes on the top of their heads.
"What did you say earlier about the Palace Master's direct disciple having a conflict with the Zhao Clan's disciples?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
Due to Duan Lingtian's casual attitude, the few of them had a good impression of him. When faced with his question, the few of them immediately told him everything they knew.
As it turned out, the few Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples from the Zhao Clan had used the excuse of 'cleaning house' to bully the few direct disciples under Zhu Lüqi. Currently, they had a conflict, and it would not take long before both sides would fight.
In the Mystical Sky Mansion, as long as one did not kill or maim someone, there were no restrictions on sparring.
"Senior Brother Ling Tian, you seem to have a good relationship with Miss Fei Xuan. I saw her earlier. I'm afraid she'll be at a disadvantage if she's with the Palace Master's direct disciples."
One of the Heaven Palace's disciples reminded Duan Lingtian.
This Heaven Palace's disciple knew there was going to be a good show, so he came to look for the others and asked them to join in the fun.
"As expected, she's here."
Duan Lingtian nodded and followed the others to the peak of the Heaven Palace.
This was because the people from the Zhao Clan and Zhu Lüqi's faction were confronting each other at the peak of the Heaven Palace. It would not take long before they started fighting.
When Duan Lingtian arrived, he noticed a large group of people had gathered at the peak of the Heaven Palace.
Moreover, the number of people was still increasing. In the end, there were even Earth Palace's disciples, Mystical Palace's disciples, and even Yellow Palace's disciples who came to watch the show.
At the center of the crowd, two groups of people were confronting each other at the center of the vast platform.
There were five people standing on one side.
There were four people standing on the other side.
Duan Lingtian's gaze landed on the four people standing side by side. He noticed Wang Fei Xuan was there as well.
At this moment, Wang Fei Xuan was glaring at the five people in front of her. They were also the five Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples from the Zhao Clan.
"Zhao Ji?"
Then, Duan Lingtian noticed Zhao Ji was among the five people from the Zhao Clan.
"Zhao Ji, I've already made it clear that everything Master has done has nothing to do with us. We had no idea beforehand! Not only that, but Lord Qian Ping Sheng, the Palace Master of Yellow Palace, has also informed us that the Mystical Sky Mansion won't implicate us for our Master's mistake. "
A sturdy middle-aged man standing next to Wang Fei Xuan said in a deep voice.
"Hong Gang, everyone knows how to play nice. What evidence do you have to prove that all of you have nothing to do with this matter? I really suspect that the reason Zhu Lüqi was able to escape from the two Guardians' pursuit is most likely because all of you are his spies. "
Zhao Ji said with narrowed eyes.
The four people before him were the disciples of his partner, Zhu Lüqi.
If it was any other time, he would not have offended Zhu Lüqi even if he only cooperated with Zhu Lüqi because of benefits.
However, the reason he was here today was because his grandfather, Zhao Jin, had instructed him to do so.
According to his grandfather, Zhao Jin had asked him to lead some men to teach these few direct disciples of Zhu Lüqi a lesson.
As the saying went, 'A son must repay a father's debt!'
Although Zhu Lüqi was not their father, a master was like a father and a mother so he could be considered as their father.
Zhao Ji knew very well that his grandfather had made such a decision because he wanted Zhu Lüqi to reveal some clues so he could capture Zhu Lüqi.
Although it was not very realistic, it was better to try than not try.
"You're lying!"
"We had no idea what Master had done beforehand!"
"Zhao Ji, don't slander us!"
…
At this moment, it was not only Hong Gang and the other two, but even Wang Fei Xuan's expression had changed. Zhao Ji's accusation was too harsh.
He actually accused them of being spies!
"Young Master Ji, why are you wasting your breath on them? Since they're unwilling to admit it, I'll teach them a lesson on behalf of their traitorous master. Let's see if they can still be as stubborn as they are now!"
The curly-bearded middle-aged man behind Zhao Ji grinned. His eyes were filled with mockery as he looked at Hong Gang, Wang Fei Xuan, and the other two.
Upon seeing this, Hong Gang's expression turned grave as he said angrily, "Zhao Kun, if it wasn't for your good luck that made you break through to the Eminent Saint Stage before me, would you still dare to be so arrogant in front of me? I, Hong Gang, will swear that if you dare to touch a single strand of hair on me, my Junior Brother, and my Junior Sister, I'll definitely not let you off the hook when I break through to the Eminent Saint Stage! "
Before Zhao Kun had broken through, although his strength was not bad, he was still defeated by Hong Gang.
Now that Zhao Kun had broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage before him, he was in such a passive position.
"I don't know when you'll break through to the Eminent Saint Stage … All I know is that you, Hong Gang, will have to obediently kneel in front of me, Zhao Kun!"
Zhao Kun chuckled strangely as though he was a villain who had gotten his way.
"Young Master Ji."
Although Zhao Kun wanted to attack Hong Gang immediately, he still asked for instructions when he remembered Zhao Ji was present.
When Zhao Kun saw Zhao Ji nodding his head, his body jolted before he stomped on the ground and charged toward Hong Gang like a storm.
The air trembled in his wake as the sound of air exploding reverberated in the air.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
At the same time, a gust of wind swept out from Zhao Kun's body, causing the robes of the onlookers to flutter loudly.
"Hong Gang is nothing in front of Senior Brother Zhao Ji who has broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage!"
"Hehe … Let alone Hong Gang, even if he joins forces with the other three people next to him, they're still no match for Senior Brother Zhao Kun."
"With Senior Brother Zhao Kun here, there's no need for us to make a move at all."
The other three people next to Zhao Ji stood at the side and watched the show as well.
"Be careful, Senior Brother Hong!"
"Be careful, Senior Brother!"
…
When Zhao Kun charged toward Hong Gang, horror dawned on Wang Fei Xuan and the other two people. At the same time, the three of them made their moves and charged toward Zhao Kun as well.
Although their Senior Brother Hong Gang was strong, he was no match for Zhao Kun who had broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage!
"You want to join forces? Then, I'll let all of you join forces and receive my palm strike! "
