"Old friend … I'm sorry for what happened to Wu!"
Facing the travel-worn 'Yang Chong', before Yang Chong could greet him, Li An took the initiative to apologize with a guilty look on his face. Apex said. …
Yang Chong was a tall old man with an ordinary appearance. He had white hair and eyebrows, and he looked like an iron tower as he stood there.
Yang Chong shook his head in response to Li An's apology. "I can understand your difficulties. If I were you, I would've made the same choice as you … That's why I don't blame you for Wu's death. "
He had heard about the incident from the 'old servant' by his son's side so he could understand Li An's choice.
If Li An had interfered at that time, the matter would've been blown up.
This matter concerned the reputation of Zoroastrianism. The higher-ups of Zoroastrianism would've chosen to abandon Li An to preserve the reputation of Zoroastrianism.
At that time, Li An would've been expelled from Zoroastrianism!
Therefore, he could understand why Li An did not help him at that time.
"Don't worry, I'll avenge Wu for him!"
Li An felt even more guilty when he saw Yang Chong's understanding. His gaze turned cold as he vowed solemnly.
"Bring me to the person who killed my son."
However, Yang Chong did not seem to care about Li An's solemn vow. He looked at Li An and said indifferently.
"Alright."
Li An was not surprised when he heard that Yang Chong wanted to meet the Duan Lingtian. He immediately led the way.
Along the way, Li An saw that Yang Chong was silent. He knew that although Yang Chong did not blame him verbally, he still blamed him in his heart.
However, this was normal, and he did not mind.
"That Duan Lingtian killed one of my direct disciples ten days ago … I won't be able to eat or sleep in peace if he's not dead!"
Li An suddenly said in a deep voice with killing intent in his eyes.
The reason Li An brought up this matter was not only because he hated the Duan Lingtian, but also because he wanted to break the silence between him and Yang Chong.
"You're going to accept a direct disciple?"
Sure enough, upon hearing Li An's words, Yang Chong immediately looked over. At the same time, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
As far as he knew, Li An had very high standards.
His three direct disciples were all Martial Dao geniuses with blue Innate Spiritual Roots.
"Yes."
Li An nodded. At the same time, he mentioned Gu Chun, Gu Long, Gu Chun's cousin, and the fact that Gu Long was killed by Duan Lingtian.
In the end, the murderous glint in his eyes shot out in all directions, and the murderous intent on his body was so cold that when it spread out, it seemed to make the surrounding temperature drop a little.
"I'm even more curious now. What kind of person dares to offend you, the Black Turtle Sanctum's First Silver Flame Elder!"
Needless to say, Li An's' complaint 'had helped Yang Chong's state of mind become much more balanced.
As it turned out, it was not only his son who was killed by that person, but his direct disciple who possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root whom Li An had been dreaming of!
At this moment, when facing Li An, Yang Chong had the feeling of being in the same boat, and the last trace of dissatisfaction in his heart vanished without a trace.
"Did you hear that? That newcomer Duan Lingtian is in the limelight again after killing Gu Long ten days ago! "
When Li An and Yang Chong passed by the altar in the center of the Black Turtle Sanctum, they suddenly heard a Black Turtle Sanctum's disciple shouting from below.
Since Li An and Yang Chong were flying above the clouds, the people around the altar did not notice them. Otherwise, the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples around the altar would have taken the initiative to greet Li An.
"Duan Lingtian?"
When Li An and Yang Chong heard the name 'Duan Lingtian', they looked at each other and stopped in unison. They pricked up their ears to listen to the conversation between the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples below.
"Are you talking about how Duan Lingtian defeated Senior Brother Zhang Ji in a domineering manner in the Secundus house today?"
"That's right! It seems like you've heard it as well. "
"How could I not have heard it? Currently, as long as the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples are not in closed-door cultivation or have not left the Black Turtle Sanctum, I'm sure most of them know about this, right? "
"Get up! That Duan Lingtian is really strong! He can even defeat Zhang Ji! "
…
The conversation between the two Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples entered Li An and Yang Chong's ears.
Secundus house?
Yang Chong's eyes widened immediately.
Although he was not a member of Zoroastrianism, he had learned about the residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples from Li An in the past since he was a good friend of Li An.
Based on what he knew, the people who lived in the Secundus house were all Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples who were at the Quintessential Saint Stage or above.
"Li An, didn't you say earlier that the strength Duan Lingtian displayed ten days ago was only comparable to an elite Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage. It has only been ten days, but he's already able to fight for the Secundus house in the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples' residence?"
Yang Chong asked with a frown on his face as he looked at Li An.
After a while, before Li An could reply, he continued to ask, "I remember you told me before that the Secundus house in the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples' residence is reserved for Quintessential Saint Stage disciples. Their Zhang Ji is a Quintessential Saint Stage disciple who lives in the Secundus house? "
After Yang Chong finished speaking, Li An did not reply.
Then, Yang Chong was shocked to see Li An's expression had changed drastically. An expression of disbelief could be seen on his face as his eyes shone with disbelief.
"What's wrong?"
Yang Chong could not help but ask when he saw this.
"Zhang Ji is the direct disciple of one of the Silver Flame Elders in our Black Turtle Sanctum. He's one of the elite Early Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in our Black Turtle Sanctum. His cultivation base is so powerful that he's only a step away from breaking through to the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage!"
Li An said solemnly.
"One of the elite Early Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in the Black Turtle Sanctum? Such a person actually lost to Duan Lingtian? "
Yang Chong was shocked.
However, what was even more shocking was yet to come.
"I heard that during the battle between Senior Brother Zhang Ji and Duan Lingtian, he even cast the high-grade offensive Divine Ability, the Mountain-River Fist. However, even then, he still lost!"
When Li An heard the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciple's words, his eyes widened again. An expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
"How's this possible?!"
In the next instant, Li An could not help but exclaim.
"Even though he mastered a high-grade offensive Divine Ability, he still lost to Duan Lingtian?"
Yang Chong's expression turned grave as he muttered to himself, "It seems like Duan Lingtian didn't even use his full strength when he fought with Gu Long ten days ago!"
Then, Li An and Yang Chong learned more about the battle between Duan Lingtian and Zhang Ji. They did not miss any details at all.
In the end, they looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
Duan Lingtian had actually mastered three high-grade Divine Abilities?
Not only that, but the high-grade assist-type Divine Ability that Duan Lingtian had mastered had even absorbed Zhang Ji's powerful attack at the most critical moment. Then, he had used Zhang Ji's strength and his own strength to heavily injure and defeat Zhang Ji in one fell swoop!
"What kind of assist-type Divine Ability is that?"
Li An and Yang Chong looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes again.
Soon after, they learned from each other that they had never heard of such an assist-type Divine Ability before.
"What a domineering assist-type Divine Ability!"
Yang Chong said in a deep voice.
"It's domineering indeed! What did Duan Lingtian do to deserve God's favor? Not only did he comprehend three high-grade Divine Abilities, but this assist-type Divine Ability is obviously not an ordinary high-grade Divine Ability. In fact, it might even be a top-notch high-grade Divine Ability! "
Li An's eyes turned red as he spoke. A hint of jealousy could be seen on his face.
In the residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum's disciples.
Inside the Secundus house, Duan Lingtian who had recovered for a while finally had the strength to stand up.
After he stood up, he immediately entered the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. He planned to make use of the slow flow of time inside to recover his Sun Saint Energy as soon as possible.
The feeling of emptiness in his body caused him to feel insecure.
"After I've recovered, I'll go into closed-door cultivation to raise my cultivation base to the peak of the Divine Saint Stage first!"
At the same time, Duan Lingtian set a goal and a plan for himself.
As for the Exemplary Saint Stage, Duan Lingtian did not dare to think about it for now.
Currently, his cultivation base had only just broken through to the Intermediate Divine Saint Stage.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Duan Lingtian did not know how long had passed. When the Sun Saint Energy in his body had only recovered by 10%, a cold voice resonated from outside and woke him up.
"Li An?"
Duan Lingtian was no stranger to this voice. It belonged to the Black Turtle Sanctum's First Silver Flame Elder, Li An.
"Why is he here? Don't tell me he has something to do with Zhang Ji? "
Duan Lingtian frowned and left the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda in the end.
After he put the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda away, he pushed the door open and walked out to the courtyard in front of the Secundus house.
As soon as Duan Lingtian walked out of the Secundus house, he could clearly feel many pairs of eyes on him. Among these pairs of eyes, there were two pairs of eyes that were the most piercing.
These two pairs of eyes were filled with killing intent as though they were about to devour someone.
"Who's he?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes swept past Li An and landed on the tall old man next to him. A hint of confusion could be seen in his eyes.
He was not surprised that Li An wanted to kill him.
However, he was certain this was his first time seeing this old man.
Moreover, the old man was not wearing the Zoroastrianism's uniform so he was most likely not a Zoroastrianism member.
Duan Ling Tian could not figure out how he had offended the old man to the point that the old man was filled with killing intent towards him. It was as though the old man could not wait to kill him!
"You're Duan Lingtian?"
At this moment, the tall old man spoke in a deep voice that was close to interrogating Duan Lingtian.
"Who are you?"
Duan Lingtian asked in response to the old man's question.
"You … Kill yourself!"
