"Just let them be."
Duan Lingtian glanced at the few Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples from the Zhao Clan and said nonchalantly.
"Why aren't you scramming?!"
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words and seeing the few Mystical Sky Mansion's disciples from the Zhao Clan still sitting there in a daze, Gu Li glared at them.
After the few Zhao Clan's disciples fled, Gu Li slowly walked into the courtyard and said with a displeased expression, "Originally, I came out of closed-door cultivation today to give my old man a surprise. I didn't expect him to not be here!"
"So, Senior Brother Gu Li, you came to share this surprise with me as soon as possible?"
Duan Lingtian asked with a smile.
Gu Li nodded.
"Senior Brother Gu Li, I'm afraid it won't take long for the news of you breaking through to the Divine Saint Stage to spread throughout the Mystical Sky Mansion. As far as I know, even the Mansion Master had yet to break through to the Divine Saint Stage when he was your age!"
Duan Lingtian praised.
"Alright, stop praising me. It's fine if other people praise me, but I don't like it when you praise me."
Gu Li hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Who dares to mention innate talent in front of a freak like you? Oh, right, I noticed the atmosphere in the mansion is a little strange. Do you know what's going on? "
"The Devouring Dark Devil Technique has appeared!"
Duan Lingtian said solemnly. He had come out of closed-door cultivation half a month ago, so he had heard about the things that had happened recently.
"Didn't the Devouring Dark Devil Technique appear a long time ago?"
Gu Li asked, puzzled.
Two years ago, the Mystical Sky Mansion had attacked the Rising Sky Mansion for the Devouring Dark Devil Technique!
Naturally, they did not know the Devil Dao Cultivation Method was the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. When they found out later, the key person, Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, had already been brought away by the former Palace Master of Heaven Palace, Zhu Lüqi.
"The remote area in the west has become a dead zone. Almost everyone in that area is dead, especially the young ladies. Especially those young women, they were all sucked dry. "
Duan Lingtian said in a solemn tone, "Now, the news has spread across half of the lower district! All the young women in the Lower Province, including our Mystical Sky Mansion's young disciples, are in danger. "
"Because the situation over there is similar to the situation where the Devil Cultivators who cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique wreaked havoc, we can almost conclude that it was done by someone who also cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique!"
"Originally, Xu Jing from the Rising Sky Mansion was the only one who cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. However, after Xu Jing was rescued, there was more than one person who cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique."
Duan Lingtian said.
"You mean … Palace Master Zhu has already begun to cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, and he was the one who did all the things that happened in this remote area in the west?!"
Gu Li gasped. He did not expect such a huge matter would happen while he was in closed-door cultivation.
"Xu Jing's body might be in a coma now, but it's not difficult for his soul remnant that hasn't fully recovered to communicate with others. For this reason, it's very easy for him to pass the Devouring Dark Devil Technique to Palace Master Zhu."
Duan Lingtian speculated, "Perhaps, Palace Master Zhu had negotiated with Xu Jing and reached an agreement with him in exchange for the Devouring Dark Devil Technique in exchange for saving Xu Jing!"
"I can't believe a person can change so quickly! In the past, Palace Master Zhu's temper was quite good. However, now … "
Gu Li sighed.
"Sometimes, hatred can destroy a person!"
Duan Lingtian said solemnly as his eyes flashed.
Zhu Lüqi was the former Palace Master of Mystical Sky Mansion's Heaven Palace. Although he was not familiar with him, he had interacted with him before. His first impression of him was that he was a kind elder.
However, it was precisely this kind elder who had been humiliated by Feng Bu Yi, the Deputy Leader of Mountainshade Black Market, that the seed of hatred had been planted in his heart.
After the appearance of the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, this seed could no longer be suppressed and completely broke out of the ground!
The seed of hatred had already sprouted. What Zhu Lüqi had to do next was to desperately devour the vital blood and vital essence of the young woman to cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique and raise his cultivation base at the fastest speed possible.
Until he went to seek revenge from the Deputy Leader of Mountainshade Black Market, Feng Bu Yi!
"However, it's true that Deputy Leader of Mountainshade Black Market, Feng Bu Yi, has gone too far. If I were Palace Master Zhu, I wouldn't be able to stand being humiliated like that as well."
Previously, when Zhu Lüqi was humiliated by Feng Bu Yi, Gu Li was present as well. Every time he thought about it, he could not help but feel indignant for Zhu Lüqi.
"If you were Palace Master Zhu, Senior Brother Gu Li, and you knew you would never be able to seek revenge by cultivating the Devouring Dark Devil Technique normally, what would you do when faced with the temptation of cultivating the Devouring Dark Devil Technique?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Perhaps, I would make the same choice as Palace Master Zhu."
Gu Li sighed. "To me, that kind of humiliation is even worse than killing me! Junior Brother Ling Tian, what if you were in my shoes? What would you do? If your innate talent is not that high and you completely put yourself in Palace Master Zhu's shoes … "
"If I were Palace Master Zhu, I would want nothing more than to turn Feng Bu Yi into ashes as well. However, I don't think I would cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. After all, don't do to others what you don't want done to you! Those young women are innocent after all. "
Duan Lingtian sighed.
If he was in his previous life on Earth, he would have made the same choice as Gu Li.
However, in this life, he had experienced the fickleness of the world. He was unwilling to destroy those young women for a personal grudge.
"You'd rather not seek revenge than cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique?"
Gu Li asked again.
"Of course not!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes gleamed coldly as a hint of loftiness appeared in his eyes. "How can I not seek revenge after being humiliated so wantonly and trampled on my dignity? However, even if I can't seek revenge personally by cultivating normally, I'll still seek revenge through other methods!
For example, I'll think of ways to get someone else to do it. "
Duan Lingtian replied.
"Get someone else to do it?"
Gu Li was stunned. "How will you get someone else to do it?"
"For example, I'll think of ways to kidnap the family of the Leader of Mountainshade Black Market or the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion. I'll use their family as a hostage to force them to kill Feng Bu Yi. Once Feng Bu Yi dies, I'll release their family!"
Duan Lingtian said, "If that's the case, I'll accept it even if I'm killed by them in the end!"
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Gu Li was filled with respect. At the same time, he could not help but sigh emotionally. "If only Palace Master Zhu had heard your words before he rescued Xu Jing … How wonderful would that be?"
"Senior Brother Gu Li, I'm just casually speaking … Just think about it and you'll know how difficult it is to kidnap the family of the Leader of Mountainshade Black Market or the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and said, "For this reason, even if Palace Master Zhu heard my words, he might not be able to seek revenge through this method."
"Perhaps, he might not have been able to do it in the past. However, as far as I know, the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion is a sentimental person! Not only that, but I've also heard that he brought many family members from his hometown back to the Azure Cloud Mansion a few years ago. "
Gu Li said, "Since he brought many family members back to the Azure Cloud Mansion, it's impossible for him to send powerhouses at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage to protect all of them. With Palace Master Zhu's strength at the peak of the Saint Stage, it won't be difficult for him to kidnap one of the family members of the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion."
"A few years ago, he brought many family members back to the Azure Cloud Mansion from his hometown?"
Upon hearing Gu Li's words, Duan Lingtian was stunned. Then, he asked again, "Senior Brother Gu Li, I heard that the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion is very young. It has only been less than twenty years since he rose to power in the Dobusei Subterranean, and he has already led the Azure Cloud Mansion to the peak of the Lower Province and is on par with the Mountainshade Black Market?"
"That's right. The Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion is a legendary figure in the Dobusei Subterranean! He's also the person that I admire the most. "
Gu Li nodded. "Perhaps, the leader of the Mountainshade Black Market is not inferior to him in terms of innate talent and strength. However, the leader of the Mountainshade Black Market has been fully nurtured by the Mountainshade Black Market since he was young. On the other hand, the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion is only from the Mortal Continent!
For someone who came from the Mortal Continent to achieve such a result, he's already worthy of being a legend in the Dobusei Subterranean! "
When Gu Li reached the end of his sentence, he sighed emotionally.
"Mortal Continent?!"
Duan Lingtian was stunned. "The Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion is from the Mortal Continent?"
At this moment, other information about the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion began to reverberate in Duan Lingtian's mind.
It has only been less than twenty years since he rose to power in the Dobusei Subterranean!
A few years ago, he brought many family members back from his hometown in the Mortal Continent!
Dugu in the North and Ru Feng in the South. The Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion was the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!
Ru Feng!
'Back then, Little Fei' er was brought away by father's subordinate! To be able to bring Little Fei 'er away from the fifth-rate force, the Greenwave Han Mansion, father's subordinate must be quite powerful … Don't tell me …'
A shocking thought suddenly appeared in Duan Lingtian's mind.
Naturally, this was only his guess. He could not confirm it yet.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, what's wrong with you?"
When Gu Li saw Duan Lingtian's eyes widened and his body began to tremble, a puzzled expression appeared on his face. He did not know why his Junior Brother Ling Tian would suddenly become like this. He was still fine earlier.
"S-Senior Brother Gu Li."
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress his agitated emotions. He looked at Gu Li and asked solemnly, "D-Do you know the name of the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion?"
Initially, Gu Li thought Duan Lingtian was going to talk about something serious since he was so serious. It did not cross his mind that he would ask such a question. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. "What? Junior Brother Ling Tian, you still don't know the name of the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion? "
"Senior Brother Gu Li, please tell me!"
Duan Lingtian took another deep breath as his body began to tremble even more violently.
At this moment, Gu Li also noticed that something was amiss with Duan Lingtian. Although he did not know the reason, he no longer joked around and directly replied, "The Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion is Duan Rufeng!"
"Perhaps, you haven't heard of his name before, but I'm sure you've heard of the saying 'Dugu in the North, Ru Feng in the South, standing at the top of the Lower Province'."
