"Yes, Elder."
Zhao Kun was arrogant and conceited in front of Duan Lingtian, but he was as docile as a cat in front of the Heaven Palace's elder from the Hall of Life and Death.
Duan Lingtian nodded in response to the Heaven Palace's elder's question.
"You're Ling Tian?"
It was apparent the Heaven Palace's elder was more interested in Duan Lingtian than he was in Zhao Kun. He merely glanced at Zhao Kun indifferently before focusing all his attention on Duan Lingtian.
When Zhao Kun saw this, his eyes flashed coldly. "What a senseless old man! Don't you know Ling Tian is going to die soon?"
Although he was unwilling to admit it, he had to admit that regardless of strength or innate talent, he would never be able to catch up to Ling Tian.
Although his current cultivation base was higher than Ling Tian, how old was Ling Tian compared to him?
There was no comparison at all!
When Duan Lingtian saw the Heaven Palace's elder looking at him, he could no longer nod. He smiled faintly and said, "I'm Ling Tian."
"I heard your current cultivation base is only at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, but he has already broken through to the Early Eminent Saint Stage a few days ago. Do you really want to sign a Death Pact with him and have a Death Duel? "
The Heaven Palace's elder asked.
This time, before Duan Lingtian could open his mouth, Zhao Kun could not help but interject, "Elder, as the person in charge of the Hall of Life and Death, your duty should be to witness us signing a Death Pact, right? As for the other matters, it's none of your business, right? "
At this moment, even if he risked offending this Heaven Palace's elder, he had to speak up.
Who knew if Ling Tian would change his mind if the elder continued to persuade him?
If he changed his mind, who would he cry to?
He was prepared to kill Ling Tian and look for the Lord Guardian of his Zhao Clan to claim his reward!
"Zhao Kun, are you questioning me?"
As the person in charge of the Hall of Life and Death, this Heaven Palace's elder was, naturally, not someone to be trifled with. When he looked at Zhao Kun again, his eyes gleamed fiercely.
"Zhao Kun wouldn't dare!"
Zhao Kun quickly lowered his head, but he continued to say, "As the saying goes, 'Honest words are unpleasant to the ear'. Elder, please do your job properly and don't interfere too much!"
"It's not up to a junior like you to tell me what to do!"
The Heavenly Hall's Elder did not expect Zhao Kun to be so presumptuous. His face immediately darkened.
"It's not his place to tell you what to do … but is it my place to tell you what to do?"
Just as many people felt that Zhao Kun was about to run out of luck, a voice rang out from afar. The voice was filled with majesty and it attracted everyone's attention.
They all wanted to know who dared to speak to the person in charge of the Heavenly Palace's Hall of Life and Death in such a manner.
"Father!"
Among the people present, Zhao Ji was the first to recognize the voice without turning around.
After recognizing him, Zhao Ji turned around with a look of pleasant surprise on his face. He flew toward the middle-aged man who was flying over from afar and joined up with him.
"It's Vice Principal Zhao Deng!"
"I didn't expect Vice Mansion Master Zhao Deng to come as well. It seems like the battle between Ling Tian and Zhao Kun is going to be very interesting."
"If they find out Vice Mansion Master Zhao Deng has personally come, those who didn't come will definitely regret it."
…
After recognizing Zhao Deng, the group of Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples present on the scene was shocked as they began to discuss among themselves.
"Zhao Deng?"
When Duan Lingtian saw Zhao Deng, he could not help but frown. He did not expect this fellow to come as well.
What was he doing here?
Was he here to watch the show and see how he would be killed by Zhao Kun?
Unfortunately, he would most likely be disappointed.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian!"
At the same time, another loud voice resonated from afar as a familiar figure appeared before Duan Lingtian's eyes.
"Senior Brother Gu Li!"
When Duan Lingtian saw the newcomer, a rare smile appeared on his face. He did not expect Gu Li to come as well.
"Vice Mansion Master Zhao actually came as well … It seems like Vice Mansion Master Zhao is looking forward to this battle as well."
When Gu Li arrived outside the Hall of Death, he immediately looked at Zhao Deng and took the initiative to greet him.
"I just came to have a look."
Zhao Deng replied nonchalantly.
In the Mystical Sky Mansion, in terms of identity, excluding his identity as the Vice Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion, he and Gu Li were both the sons of Guardians.
In terms of innate talent, he was not comparable to Gu Li.
In terms of strength, he was much stronger than Gu Li. However, this was because he was older than Gu Li. When Gu Li reached his current age, he would only be stronger than him.
Moreover, after a few years, Gu Li would most likely surpass him!
Due to this reason, he could not ignore Gu Li's greeting.
Gu Li nodded before he soared into the air and arrived next to Duan Lingtian.
However, the first person he greeted was not Duan Lingtian. Instead, it was the Heaven Palace's elder, the person in charge of the Heaven Palace's Hall of Death, who was standing opposite Duan Lingtian. "Junior Uncle Cheng, it's been a few years since we last met. You're still as young as before!"
"You're still the same as before. You like to be glib-tongued. I heard you're now the strongest person on the Mystical Sky Ranking.
Not bad, "the Heaven Palace's elder replied to Gu Li with a smile.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, this is Junior Uncle Cheng Yun. He can be considered as my father's junior brother. His master is the senior brother of my Grand Master."
At this moment, Gu Li introduced Duan Lingtian to him.
"Elder Cheng, I didn't know you're Senior Brother Gu's Junior Uncle. Please forgive me for my earlier offense."
After learning about this Heaven Palace's elder's other identity, Duan Lingtian was only stunned for a moment before he took the initiative to cup his hands together and apologize.
Earlier, when Cheng Yun took the initiative to remind him that he was not a match for Zhao Kun, he was puzzled.
He did not know this Heaven Palace's elder at all. Why would he be so kind as to remind him?
Now that Duan Lingtian found out Cheng Yun was Gu Li's Junior Uncle, realization dawned on him.
He believed Cheng Yun must have known about his friendship with Gu Li. Otherwise, he would not have reminded him.
When Duan Lingtian thought of this, Zhao Kun, who was standing at the side, naturally thought of this as well. His expression turned grave immediately as he prayed in his heart that nothing would happen later.
This Ling Tian must definitely sign a life and death contract with him!
He must not go back on his words at the critical moment!
If Duan Lingtian went back on his words and refused to sign a Death Pact with him, he would not dare to kill Duan Lingtian in the Mystical Sky Mansion's estate even if he wanted to.
"Elder Cheng, since they're here to sign a Death Pact, why don't you take the Death Pact out and let them sign it? I really want to see the fierce battle as soon as possible. I believe it'll be an exciting battle! "
At the same time, Zhao Deng brought Zhao Ji over and said as he looked at Cheng Yun.
In other words, he was urging Cheng Yun to quickly take out the Death Pact and let Duan Lingtian and Zhao Kun sign it.
"Father!"
The moment Zhao Deng's words left his mouth and Cheng Yun was looking at Gu Li, a Voice Transmission suddenly sounded in Zhao Deng's ears.
Zhao Deng could tell it was his son's Voice Transmission. "Ji 'er, what's wrong?"
"Father, quickly order Zhao Kun to go back on his words. Don't let him sign the Death Pact!"
Zhao Ji continued to transmit his voice, and his tone was filled with urging.
"Why?"
Zhao Deng was puzzled. "Didn't you want Ling Tian to die since a long time ago? If he signs the Death Pact today, he'll definitely die if he faces Zhao Kun who has broken through to the Eminent Saint Stage! "
"I know. I just don't want Ling Tian to die now. Father, I want to kill Ling Tian personally. I don't want to rely on others!"
Zhao Ji said again.
"Ji 'er, are you out of your mind? When your grandfather gave the order to kill Ling Tian, you were very supportive. Why are you going back on your words now? "
Zhao Deng was puzzled. He did not know if his son had taken the wrong medicine.
Naturally, Zhao Ji did not take the wrong medicine.
The reason he changed so much was because he did not have any hope of surpassing Duan Lingtian.
However, now that he was about to obtain the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, he would be able to surpass Duan Lingtian in one or two years. For this reason, he did not want to rely on others to kill Duan Lingtian.
However, could he tell his father what was on his mind?
"Father, my cultivation has slowed down a lot recently. I think it has something to do with Ling Tian. I'm worried that if I don't kill Ling Tian with my own hands, my cultivation will be greatly affected."
Zhao Ji came up with a clumsy excuse.
"Ji 'er, I know you want to take revenge with your own hands. However, with your innate talent, the gap between you and Ling Tian will only grow bigger and bigger in the future! In the end, even your grandfather and I won't be able to suppress him, let alone you! "
Zhao Deng said, "That's why you shouldn't be so stubborn. Just let Zhao Kun kill him.
As for the problem with your cultivation, it's not a problem at all! The main thing is that you'll be happy if Ling Tian dies. Once you're happy, the efficiency of your cultivation will naturally increase. Trust me, I've been there before. "
Zhao Deng finished speaking in one breath.
No matter what excuses Zhao Ji came up with, Zhao Deng had no intention of stopping Zhao Kun.
In the end, Zhao Ji almost blurted out the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. Fortunately, he managed to hold himself back at the last moment.
While Zhao Deng and his son were conversing through Voice Transmission, Cheng Yun also conversed with Gu Li through Voice Transmission.
He hoped that Gu Li would persuade Duan Lingtian to go back on his word and not sign the Death Pact with Duan Lingtian. After all, he did not think Duan Lingtian had a chance of winning.
Gu Li also asked Duan Lingtian through Voice Transmission.
After receiving Duan Lingtian's firm reply, Gu Li said to Cheng Yun, "Junior Uncle Cheng, don't worry. Junior Brother Ling Tian won't do anything he's not confident in! Take out the Death Pact. "
Although Cheng Yun did not know why Gu Li trusted Duan Lingtian so much, he knew it was useless for him to say anything at this moment.
After all, the person in question was much calmer than him!
For this reason, when Zhao Deng looked at him again and was about to urge him, he quickly took out the Death Pact.
Boom!
The Death Pact in the Mystical Sky Mansion's Hall of Death was a gigantic stone tablet that fell to the ground with a loud bang.
At first glance, one could see rows and rows of words were densely engraved on it. It was the content of the Death Pact.
At the bottom of the stone tablet, there were two empty spots.
"Both of you will have to place your palm on it once, and this Death Pact will be considered complete."
