"Isn't that so?"
Zhao Deng glanced at Duan Ling Tian disdainfully and smirked. "My son had a great fortuitous encounter and came across an Ancient Devil Beast Relic. He obtained the Ancient Devil Beast's inheritance and broke through to the Early Divine Saint Stage from the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage in less than two years. Although your innate talent is great, your cultivation base is only at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage. You want to kill my son? You must be dreaming! "
Ancient Devil Beast Relic!
Early Divine Saint Stage!
Originally, Gu Li was already shocked when he heard Duan Lingtian's words.
However, when he heard Zhao Deng's words, he realized Duan Lingtian was telling the truth. He was shocked as well. 'Zhao Ji is so lucky? He actually came across an Ancient Devil Beast Relic and obtained the Ancient Devil Beast's inheritance. He broke through from the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage to the Early Divine Saint Stage in less than two years? '
When Gu Li thought about how he had only recently broken through to the Early Divine Saint Stage despite all his hard work, he felt a sense of injustice.
"Ancient Devil Beast Relic? Ancient Devil Beast's inheritance? "
When Duan Lingtian heard Zhao Deng's words, he was stunned. However, he could not help but laugh.
"Vice Mansion Master Zhao, Zhao Ji told you he came across an Ancient Devil Beast Relic and obtained the Ancient Devil Beast's inheritance?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Zhao Deng with a strange smile on his face.
"What are you laughing at?!"
Zhao Deng's expression turned grave. He did not know why Duan Lingtian was laughing.
"Vice Mansion Master Zhao, it seems like your son isn't being honest in front of you. Well, if he didn't think I was going to die that day, he wouldn't have told me the truth about how his cultivation base had improved so quickly!"
Duan Lingtian looked at Zhao Deng deeply. The smile on his face widened when he reached the end of his sentence.
"What do you mean by that? What truth? "
Zhao Deng's expression turned grave.
At this time, Gu Li also looked at Duan Lingtian curiously. He didn't know what Duan Lingtian wanted to say, but he was looking forward to what Ling Tian was going to say next.
"The truth is … Zhao Ji didn't come across any Relic of the Ancient Devil Beast's Divine Ability, nor did he obtain any Ancient Devil Beast's inheritance! The reason why his cultivation base rose so quickly was because he cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, just like Palace Master Zhu from the Heavenly Palace! "
Duan Lingtian calmly replied to Zhao Deng's question. A mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he spoke.
Devouring Dark Devil Technique!
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Gu Li's eyes narrowed. The way he looked at Zhao Deng changed completely. "Zhao Deng! You actually allowed your son to cultivate the 'Devouring Dark Devil Technique' … You really have some guts! "
"Nonsense!"
As Zhao Deng glared at Duan Lingtian, a vast energy surged out of his body. "Ling Tian, my son is already dead. I won't allow anyone to slander him!"
"Slander?"
Duan Lingtian smiled. "Vice Mansion Master Zhao, I didn't slander your good son! He admitted everything I know. Moreover, he even told me that he was the one who pulled the strings between Palace Master Zhu and Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion!
Perhaps, if he didn't pull the strings, Palace Master Zhu might not have been able to reach an agreement with Xu Jing! "
When Duan Lingtian reached the end of his sentence, his eyes turned cold immediately.
When Zhao Deng heard Duan Lingtian's words, he fell silent for a moment.
He still remembered when he was keeping an eye on Xu Jing, his son had gone to the secret underground chamber where Xu Jing was imprisoned. He had even stood in front of Xu Jing's bed for a long time.
At that time, he thought his son had contacted Xu Jing. However, his son said he had not.
At that time, he did not suspect his son at all.
However, when he heard Duan Lingtian's words today, he recalled the scene that day. He found it even stranger.
Moreover, his originally determined heart was starting to waver.
'Don't tell me Ji' er really contacted Xu Jing? He didn't tell me because he was afraid I wouldn't let him cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique? '
The moment Zhao Deng thought of this, his heart sank.
'If I'm not mistaken, Zhao Ji must have found out that Palace Master Zhu was humiliated by Feng Bu Yi, the Deputy Leader of Mountainshade Black Market. He must have taken advantage of Palace Master Zhu's desire to seek revenge and persuaded Palace Master Zhu to rescue Xu Jing!'
These were all Duan Lingtian's speculations.
"If I'm not mistaken? Zhao Ji shouldn't have been in the Mystical Sky Mansion when the young women in the west were turned into dried corpses, right? Moreover, Zhao Ji must have returned to the Mystical Sky Mansion after the matter there was exposed, right? "
Duan Ling Tian asked word by word as he looked at Zhao Deng.
When Zhao Deng heard this, he thought about it carefully and realized it was indeed the case.
"Stop slandering me if you don't have any evidence!"
Naturally, even if Zhao Deng had doubts in his heart, he would not admit it.
Put aside the fact that his son was dead, even if his son was still alive, he would not admit to it even if he was 100% certain his son had cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique!
In fact, those who cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique were like rats on the street in the Dao Martial Saint Land. Everyone wanted to beat them up!
"Evidence?"
Duan Lingtian smiled. "Do you want me to swear on the lightning penalty oath? I want you to know I'm not lying! "
"There's no need for that! I won't believe you anyway. "
Zhao Deng immediately rejected Duan Lingtian's words when he heard it.
However, in the depths of his heart, he was almost certain his son had indeed cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique. Otherwise, Ling Tian would not have dared to swear on the lightning penalty oath!
Gu Li had the same thought as Zhao Deng.
"To think Zhao Ji cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique … He deserved to die!"
Gu Li said coldly. He did not care about Zhao Deng's cold gaze at all.
"Forget it. Let's not talk about this anymore. As for whether Zhao Ji cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique or not, I'm sure you're very clear about it, Vice Mansion Master Zhao."
Duan Lingtian said as he stared at Zhao Deng.
"Ling Tian, I'll ask you one more time. Who killed my son? Is the person who killed my son related to you? Otherwise, why did he die instead of you? "
Zhao Deng asked coldly as he stared at Duan Lingtian.
"Vice Mansion Master Zhao, I've already told you the truth. I killed Zhao Ji … There's nothing I can do if you don't believe me!"
Duan Lingtian shook his head in the face of Zhao Deng's repeated questions. When he reached the end of his sentence, he shrugged helplessly.
"Alright! You said you killed him … Then, can you tell me how a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage like you managed to kill an Early Divine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator? "
Zhao Deng's expression turned grave immediately. He had almost lost his patience.
If it was not for the fact that he wanted an answer from Duan Lingtian, he would have attacked and killed Duan Lingtian!
"Under normal circumstances, with my cultivation base, it's indeed difficult for me to kill Zhao Ji …"
Duan Lingtian nodded and confirmed Zhao Deng's words.
Under Zhao Deng's watchful eyes, Duan Lingtian continued to say, "However, no matter how strong Zhao Ji is, he's only an Early Divine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator … Let alone an Early Divine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator, even a Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage won't be able to survive in front of me!"
When Duan Lingtian reached the end of his sentence, his body emitted a strong sense of confidence.
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, both Zhao Deng and Gu Li were stunned.
Based on Duan Lingtian's words, it seemed like he could even kill a Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage?
"That's right! Junior Brother Ling Tian has the Devilseal Tablet! "
When Gu Li heard Duan Lingtian's words, he also found it hard to believe. However, when he thought about it, he recalled the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, that Duan Lingtian had obtained in the past.
With his Junior Brother Ling Tian's True Origin that was comparable to a powerhouse at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage, once he activated the Devilseal Tablet, he would indeed be able to kill all Devil Cultivators below the Exemplary Saint Stage!
It was not an exaggeration when he said he could kill a Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Saint Stage.
Naturally, Gu Li felt at ease because he knew Duan Lingtian's true identity and Duan Lingtian possessed the Devilseal Tablet.
Zhao Deng, on the other hand, was unaware of all this.
"What a joke!"
Zhao Deng regained his senses and looked at Duan Lingtian mockingly. He said disdainfully, "Ling Tian, even if you want to boast, shouldn't you at least prepare a draft first? You're just a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Eminent Saint Stage. Not only did you boast shamelessly that you can kill an Early Divine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator, but you even dare to say you can kill a Devil Cultivator at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage! Do you think I'll believe your nonsense?!
Or perhaps, do you think I'm an idiot? "
When Zhao Deng reached the end of his sentence, a smirk appeared on his face.
"Haha …"
Duan Lingtian laughed out loud. After a long while, he finally stopped laughing.
"What are you laughing at?!"
Zhao Deng was slightly angered. "Don't tell me I'm wrong?"
"Vice Mansion Master Zhao, I think you're an idiot!"
Under Zhao Deng's furious gaze, Duan Lingtian said indifferently, "Didn't you hear what I said earlier? I've said that under normal circumstances, it's indeed difficult for me to kill Zhao Ji with my cultivation base. However, what if I have something else to rely on?
I wonder if you've heard of a Super Saint Weapon on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking in the Dao Martial Saint Land that specializes in restraining Devil Cultivators! "
When Duan Lingtian reached the end of his sentence, he intentionally reminded Zhao Deng.
Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking?
Super Saint Weapon?
Or was it a Super Saint Weapon that specialized in restraining Devil Cultivators?
'Devilseal Tablet!'
A thought popped up in Zhao Deng's mind at the first moment.
As far as he knew, the only Super Saint Weapon on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking that could restrain a Devil Cultivator was the Devilseal Tablet!
If he used the Devilseal Tablet, he could even kill a Devil Cultivator whose cultivation base was one stage higher than his!
'The Devilseal Tablet … Wasn't it rumored that a young man had obtained it a few years ago? That young man seems to be called Duan Lingtian! Duan Lingtian, Ling Tian … '
The moment Zhao Deng thought of this, he looked at Duan Lingtian as though he had seen a ghost as he cried out, "Y-You're Duan Lingtian?!"
"No!"
Before Duan Lingtian could reply, Zhao Deng shook his head and denied his speculation.
