"Senior Brother Liu Yun, why are you looking for me?"
Duan Ling Tian asked curiously as he soared into the air. He hovered near Liu Yun in the air.
At the same time, he noticed that Liu Yun, who had come in a hurry, had a serious expression on his face. For a moment, he vaguely realized that Liu Yun must have come to find him for something important.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian's expression tensed up slightly.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, I heard you slapped Wen Yan a few times in public?"
Liu Yun asked solemnly as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded. His tensed expression gradually relaxed when he heard Liu Yun's question. "Senior Brother Liu Yun, is this the reason you're looking for me?"
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, his expression returned to normal. It was as though Wen Yan's matter was not enough to cause a stir in his heart.
That was indeed the case.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, Wen Yan is not just a true disciple!"
When Liu Yun saw Duan Lingtian's nonchalant expression, he realized he was being a little too anxious. He smiled wryly and said, "Her master is a Golden Flame Elder of the Zoroastrianism. He's also the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum, one of the Four Symbols Sanctums!"
"The Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum?"
Duan Lingtian was surprised when he heard Liu Yun's words. However, that was all. He was not fearful because he knew Wen Yan's master was the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum.
After recovering from his shock, Duan Lingtian's expression returned to normal.
"Senior Brother Liu Yun, you're here to tell me that Wen Yan is the direct disciple of the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum?"
Duan Lingtian asked as he looked at Liu Yun.
Liu Yun was speechless when he saw Duan Lingtian acting as though nothing had happened. "That's the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum. He's also a Golden Flame Elder of the Zoroastrianism. Why do I feel like you're not worried at all?"
"Why should I be worried? Don't tell me that he would come to kill me just because I slapped Wen Yan a few times? "
When Duan Lingtian opened his mouth to reply to Liu Yun, his expression was as calm as ever, without the slightest ripple.
In fact, when he blocked Wen Yan's way and slapped her, he had already guessed that Wen Yan might have a master with a high status in Zoroastrianism.
After all, no matter what, Wen Yan was still a true disciple who was ranked ninth on the True Ranking. She must have been taken in as a direct disciple by the higher-ups of the Zoroastrianism.
Therefore, when he heard from Liu Yun that Wen Yan's master was a Golden Flame Elder, he was not afraid at all.
Moreover, he was shocked not because Wen Yan's master was a Golden Flame Elder, but because Wen Yan's master was the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum, one of the Four Symbols Sanctums!
"You …"
When Liu Yun heard Duan Lingtian's words, he opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say in the end. He was completely speechless.
"Senior Brother Liu Yun, I know you're worried about my safety, but Wen Yan's master is a Golden Flame Elder after all. I don't think he would go to the extent of targeting me over such a small matter."
When Duan Lingtian realized Liu Yun had come with good intentions, he comforted Liu Yun in a timely manner.
"Junior Brother Ling Tian, Wen Yan's master, the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum, might not personally target you over this matter, but he has another direct disciple!
The Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum only has two direct disciples. Due to this reason, his direct disciple treats Wen Yan very well. He treats her like she's his biological sister. "
When Liu Yun mentioned the First Direct Disciple of the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum, his expression turned grave.
"If he finds out what you did to Wen Yan, he definitely won't let this matter rest!"
When Liu Yun reached the end of his sentence, he looked at Duan Lingtian worriedly.
"Oh?"
Duan Ling Tian who had a nonchalant expression on his face raised a brow when he heard Liu Yun's words. He asked, "How's the strength of the Sanctum Leader's first direct disciple?"
It was just as Liu Yun had said.
Perhaps, Wen Yan's master would not personally target him over such a small matter.
However, Wen Yan's senior brother would not have so many concerns.
For this reason, Duan Lingtian's heart skipped a beat when he learned Wen Yan had a senior brother. He wanted to know how strong Wen Yan's senior brother was.
If Wen Yan's senior brother was stronger than him, he would have to be more careful in the future.
After all, he did not want to be beaten up for no reason.
Even if he was confident he would be able to avenge Wen Yan's senior brother in the future.
"Wen Yan's senior brother is also a true disciple. He's ranked second on the True Ranking … His cultivation base has already broken through to the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage a few years ago! For this reason, he's very strong! "
Liu Yun's expression turned even more solemn when he spoke. It was as though Wen Yan's senior brother was a ferocious beast.
"Second on the True Ranking? Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? "
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes when he heard Liu Yun's words.
He was confident he could kill a powerhouse at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage if he exhausted all his Sun Saint Energy that had been boosted by the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and wielded the Jasper Celestial Sword with all his might.
However, in Zoroastrianism, unless he entered the Palace of Death and signed a Death Pact, he did not dare to kill Wen Yan's senior brother.
If he killed Wen Yan's senior brother, he would not be able to escape punishment from the Zoroastrianism's rules.
Wen Yan's senior brother was not like Yuan Hong, the grand disciple of the Black Turtle Sanctum's First Silver Flame Elder Li An whom he had killed in the Vermilion Bird Sanctum.
As a true disciple who was ranked second on the True Ranking, Wen Yan's senior brother's innate talent must be very high as well.
Moreover, he was the Great Direct Disciple of the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum.
If Duan Lingtian violated the Zoroastrianism's rules and killed him, even if Duan Lingtian revealed his blue Innate Spiritual Root and showed his worth, the Zoroastrianism's Enforcement Hall would not go easy on him.
After all, Wen Yan's senior brother was not someone Yuan Hong could compare to.
If he did not kill Wen Yan's senior brother, Wen Yan's senior brother who was at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage would be able to see him wielding the Jasper Celestial Sword with all his might.
At that time, the Jasper Celestial Sword would be exposed and many powerhouses would covet it.
That was not something he wanted to see.
'Even if Wen Yan's senior brother is willing to enter the Palace of Death with me and sign a Death Pact, I won't be able to use the Jasper Celestial Sword so easily.
Elder Nie Zui, the custodian of the Palace of Death, won't be as careless as he was previously and allow me to block his view at a critical moment! '
Duan Lingtian thought about many things at this moment.
In the end, he came to a conclusion.
He could only endure when faced with Wen Yan's senior brother.
Even if he was tortured, he could only endure.
When Liu Yun saw the hint of dread on Duan Lingtian's face, naturally, he could tell Duan Lingtian was afraid of Wen Yan's senior brother.
He hurriedly said, "Junior Brother Ling Tian, as long as you stay in your residence, Wen Yan's senior brother won't be able to do anything to you. He won't dare to barge into your residence!
Apart from that, I'll go to Wen Yan's senior brother's residence to find out what's going on. If he's not in closed-door cultivation or has not left the residence, don't leave your residence for the time being. Wait until you have the confidence to defeat him, then you can leave your residence! "
After Liu Yun finished speaking, he did not wait for Duan Lingtian's reply before he left in a flash, leaving Duan Lingtian standing alone in the air.
Duan Lingtian felt warmth in his heart when he saw this.
At the same time, he entered the Formation that enveloped his residence. As long as he was in the Formation, Wen Yan's senior brother would not be able to do anything to him even if he came.
"This feeling is really annoying …" Duan Lingtian muttered to himself.
Duan Ling Tian muttered with a sigh as his eyes flashed with a fierce light.
If Wen Yan's senior brother came looking for him, he would have no choice but to hide temporarily unless he wanted to be tortured.
This was because he could not use the Jasper Celestial Sword to deal with Wen Yan's senior brother.
"I hope that Senior Brother of Wen Yan is still in closed door cultivation or has gone out … Otherwise, I can only wait for my cultivation to improve a little before I can suppress him like how I suppressed Wen Yan with the Jasper Celestial Sword and make him lose all thoughts of standing up for her!"
Duan Lingtian knew this very well.
His current strength was not enough to make him invisible to a powerhouse at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage when he wielded the Jasper Celestial Sword.
'Huo Lao … If it's a powerhouse at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, how high must my cultivation base be so that he won't be able to detect the Jasper Celestial Sword when I'm wielding it with all my might?'
Duan Lingtian asked Huo Lao who was in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
"If you want to prevent an ordinary powerhouse at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage from detecting the Jasper Celestial Sword when you're wielding it with all your might, you'll have to raise your cultivation base to the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage at least!"
Huo Lao replied.
Huo Lao had been following Duan Lingtian all this while. Coupled with the fact that he had extended his Divine Consciousness to probe the surroundings, he had a certain understanding of the cultivators in the Dao Martial Saint Land.
Faced with Duan Ling Tian's question, he immediately answered it.
"An ordinary powerhouse at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?"
Duan Ling Tian could not help but frown when he heard Elder Huo's words. "Elder Huo, do you mean I might not be able to hide the Jasper Celestial Sword from those powerhouses at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage even if my cultivation base is at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage?"
"Yes."
Huo Lao replied before he continued to say, "That's right.
In this world, after a cultivator's cultivation base has broken through to the Saint Celestial Stage, apart from becoming stronger with each transformation, there's a huge difference between each transformation!
