"Tian 'er, don't worry. Kerr and our daughter must be saved, but I don't want anything to happen to you. "
When Li Rou learned that Duan Lingtian was leaving the Azure Cloud Mansion for the sake of Kerr and their daughter, she no longer tried to dissuade him. She only reminded Duan Lingtian to be careful.
"Mother, I know."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
Since then, he had already greeted his parents.
His next stop was, naturally, to look for his wife, Li Fei.
"Go, don't worry! Save Little Sister Kerr and our daughter as soon as possible! "
When Li Fei learned that Kerr and their daughter were imprisoned by the Zoroastrianism Enforcement Hall and their lives might be in danger, horror dawned on her immediately. She even urged Duan Lingtian to go to the Upper Province as soon as possible.
"I will."
After hugging Li Fei for a while, Duan Lingtian finally let go of her before he turned around and left without looking back.
He did not dare to look back because he was afraid he would miss them.
After all, although he had returned to the Azure Cloud Mansion for a period of time, due to the fact that he had to fulfill the five-year pact, he had spent most of his time cultivating and rarely spent time with his wife and son.
In this respect, he was not a worthy husband, nor a worthy father.
After parting ways with Li Fei, Duan Lingtian went to look for Xiao Lan and Bi Yao again.
"Y-You're leaving so soon?"
Xiao Lan and Bi Yao were shocked when they learned that Duan Lingtian was leaving. A hint of reluctance could be seen in the depth of their beautiful eyes.
"I must go to the Zoroastrianism as soon as possible and think of a way to save Kerr and our daughter. Otherwise, I'm afraid something will happen to them!"
Duan Lingtian's voice was filled with worry.
"Oh, that's right, Jing Ru hasn't returned yet?"
After bidding farewell to Xiao Lan and BiYao and preparing to leave, Duan Lingtian suddenly thought of Jingru and asked.
Jing Ru was the housekeeper of the mansion he had bought in the Crimson Sky Kingdom's Imperial City. She had followed his father to the Azure Cloud Mansion with his mother.
He had been in the Azure Cloud Mansion for so long, but he had yet to see Jing Ru.
Jing Ru, like Xiao Lan and BiYao, went out to train.
However, although they all went out to train, Jing Ru did not go with Bi Yao, Xiao Lan, and Bi Yao.
Instead, he went to train alone, and there was no news of him until now.
"No."
Xiao Lan and BiYao shook their heads.
"If she comes back, help me say hello to her … Okay, I'm leaving."
After Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he simply turned around and left.
Xiao Lan and Bi Yao looked at Duan Lingtian's back from afar, their gazes somewhat infatuated.
It was only when Duan Lingtian's back disappeared from their sight that they regained their senses one after another. They looked at each other and smiled wryly.
"If he treats me like how he treats Kerr, I'll die with no regrets."
Xiao Lan said softly.
"Me too."
Upon hearing this, BiYao nodded in agreement.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian did not hear the two women whispering to each other.
After leaving Xiao Lan and BiYao's residence, Duan Lingtian went to the Azure Cloud Platform to look for Gu Li. He had not forgotten the promise he made with Gu Li to go to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land together.
The Azure Cloud Platform was the place where the most outstanding disciples of the Azure Cloud Mansion gathered.
If it was before, perhaps, Duan Lingtian would be interested in the Azure Cloud Platform.
However, his current strength had far surpassed those Azure Cloud Mansion's disciples in the Azure Cloud Platform. Naturally, he was no longer interested in the Azure Cloud Platform.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian!"
Gu Li was, naturally, surprised by Duan Lingtian's arrival. "What's going on?"
Since Duan Lingtian had personally come to look for him, something must have happened.
However, he could not figure out what it was.
"Senior Brother Gu Li, prepare yourself. I'll come and look for you in an hour. We'll leave the Azure Cloud Mansion and go to the Upper Province! I'll go and bid farewell to the others before I look for you. "
Duan Lingtian did not beat around the bush and left without waiting for Gu Li's reply.
He still had to bid farewell to Bai Li Hong, Feng Wu Dao, and the others.
"I'll see you in the Central Main Hall in an hour."
While Gu Li had a puzzled expression on his face, Duan Lingtian's voice sounded again and entered Gu Li's ears.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian seems a little off … Forget it! I'll find out the reason why he's in such a hurry to leave for the Upper Province in an hour. "
Gu Li furrowed his brows at first, then relaxed them as he muttered.
"Junior Brother, you're leaving today?"
Bai Li Hong was not the only one who found it strange when he found out Duan Lingtian was leaving for the Upper Province today. Even Feng Wu Dao and the others found it strange as well.
In fact, when they were on their way here, Duan Lingtian had said many times that he would only leave for the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land after a period of time.
However, at this moment, Duan Ling Tian seemed to have forgotten what he had said earlier.
"The situation is a little special."
Duan Lingtian explained with a bitter expression on his face when he saw the puzzled expression on Bai Li Hong and the others' faces. "I've just received news about Kerr so I'm in a hurry to go to the Upper Province to look for her."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, realization dawned on Bai Li Hong and the others.
If that was the case, everything would make sense now.
After bidding farewell to Bai Li Hong and the others, more than half an hour had passed. When Duan Lingtian made his way to the Central Main Hall, he discovered Gu Li was already waiting for him there.
"Junior Brother, why are you in such a hurry to leave the Azure Cloud Mansion and head to the Upper Province? Did something happen?"
There must be something fishy about this!
Gu Li felt something must have happened since Duan Lingtian was in such a hurry to leave.
Soon after, he obtained the answer he wanted from Duan Lingtian.
After he obtained the answer, he urged Duan Lingtian, "Junior Brother Ling Tian, let's go!"
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian and Gu Li left the Azure Cloud Mansion together and headed north.
The passage from the Dobusei Subterranean to the Upper Province was in that direction.
"The Mountainshade Black Market's headquarter is over there."
At some point, Gu Li broke the silence and pointed to the left as he spoke to Duan Lingtian.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian immediately looked over as well. However, he could not see anything clearly due to the rising dust and smoke in the distance.
Naturally, Gu Li could not see clearly as well. However, he knew the rough location of the Mountainshade Black Market's headquarter.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
All of a sudden, a deafening thunderous sound resonated from the place that Duan Lingtian and Gu Li had to pass.
As they got closer, the thunderous sound became louder and louder.
"Someone's fighting?"
Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li glanced at each other, and their faces revealed surprise.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, should we take a detour or ignore them and go straight ahead?"
Gu Li asked as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
"Let's take a detour … They seem to be quite strong."
Duan Lingtian was in a hurry to go to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. Due to this reason, it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, based on the loud commotion in front of them, it was obvious the two people fighting were very strong.
With Duan Lingtian's current strength, he was certain the two people fighting were at the Exemplary Saint Stage or above. Moreover, they were not just at the Early Exemplary Saint Stage.
"Alright!"
Since Duan Lingtian wanted to take a detour, Gu Li, naturally, did not have any objections. Currently, he would follow Duan Lingtian's lead.
However, just as Duan Lingtian and Gu Li were about to take a detour, a loud laughter resonated in front of them. "Feng Bu Yi, when you humiliated me that day, did you think this day would come?"
"Zhu Lüqi, even if you kill me today, you won't be able to escape death in the future … Those who cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique are destined to die!"
Another voice resonated in the air.
However, compared to the former's voice, the latter's voice sounded a little dispirited.
When Duan Lingtian and Gu Li heard the voice, they were stunned. They looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
This was because they were familiar with the voice.
"It's Zhu Lüqi!"
Gu Li sucked in a cold breath.
"It's indeed Palace Master Zhu."
Duan Lingtian nodded. He could tell the voice belonged to Zhu Lüqi, the Palace Master of the Mystical Sky Mansion's Heaven Palace.
Based on his words, it was obvious he was fighting with Feng Bu Yi.
Moreover, based on Feng Bu Yi's words, it was obvious he was no match for Zhu Lüqi.
"Let's go!"
Although Duan Lingtian knew who was fighting, he still decided to take a detour.
After all, Zhu Lüqi was no longer the Palace Master of the Mystical Sky Mansion's Heaven Palace. Who knew if he would make a move on him and Gu Li since he had cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique?
He was not sure how strong Zhu Lüqi was currently. Due to this reason, he decided not to take the risk.
"Yes."
Gu Li had similar thoughts as Duan Lingtian. Due to this reason, he immediately took a detour with Duan Lingtian.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Another series of loud noises resonated in the air. When it entered Duan Lingtian and Gu Li's ears, the sound grew louder and louder.
In the end, it stopped abruptly.
"It's over."
Gu Li said.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"Based on Zhu Lüqi's tone and Feng Bu Yi's tone earlier, it seems like Feng Bu Yi isn't a match for Zhu Lüqi now!"
Gu Li said again.
"Do you think Palace Master Zhu would show himself and fight with Feng Bu Yi if he's not confident he can defeat him?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head. He felt Gu Li had asked a meaningless question.
When Gu Li heard this, he realized his question was a little redundant. He could not help but smile awkwardly.
Whoosh!
All of a sudden, Duan Lingtian who had sharp ears heard the faint sound of wind whistling.
Following that, the sound of wind whistling grew louder and louder.
"Oh, no!"
Duan Lingtian's expression changed drastically.
At the same time, Gu Li's expression changed as well when he noticed the commotion behind him.
"Duan Lingtian? Gu Li? "
It was as though a gust of wind had blown past Duan Lingtian and Gu Li.
In the next instant, a figure appeared in front of both of them. It was an old man.
This old man was no stranger to Duan Lingtian and Gu Li. He was none other than Zhu Lüqi, the former Palace Master of Mystical Sky Mansion's Heaven Palace!
At this moment, Zhu Lüqi stood in front of Duan Lingtian and Gu Li, looking at both of them expressionlessly.
"Palace Master Zhu, it's been a long time."
