Dong Guo Zhi took a deep breath. His expression was no longer as gloomy as before. He looked at Duan Lingtian again and said, "Sir, if I had the intention to betray you, why would I come out to warn you?
You should know that I've been here since the beginning. I've just been hiding at the side. "
A hint of killing intent flashed in the depth of Dong Guo Zhi's eyes when he spoke. It was directed at Duan Lingtian.
Although it was only for a moment, it was only for a moment.
However, with Duan Lingtian's outstanding observation skills, he managed to catch a glimpse of it.
He was certain Dong Guo Zhi was not lying.
Dong Guo Zhi had been harboring ill intentions since the beginning.
"If I'm not mistaken …"
Duan Lingtian looked at Dong Guo Zhi and said, "You're from the Thousand Years Alliance, right? Although it seems like you're reminding me out of goodwill, I think you just want to use me to kill Ou Qing! "
A hint of surprise flashed in the depth of Dong Guo Zhi's eyes when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. An unnatural expression appeared on his face.
Naturally, the surprise in the depth of his eyes and the unnatural expression on his face only appeared for a moment before he hid it perfectly.
However, it was useless even if he tried to hide it. This was because Duan Lingtian had already discovered it.
In this life, Duan Lingtian had experienced a lot and was much more cautious than before.
Even his life as a Weapon King in his previous life had honed his observation skills to the point of perfection.
"Sir, don't you think you're overthinking things?"
Dong Guo Zhi spoke again with a calm expression on his face. There was even a faint smile on his face as though he was harmless.
Unfortunately, no matter how friendly he was, it was impossible for Duan Ling Tian to change his mind since he had already made up his mind.
"Mister Black Robe!"
At this moment, Lu Jin, who was standing behind Ou Qing, said respectfully to Duan Ling Tian, "Dong Guo Zhi is the Young Leader of the Thousand Years Alliance. The Thousand Years Alliance has always been at odds with our Seven Kill Alliance. Today, he instigated you to kill us because he wants to borrow a knife to kill us!"
"Humph!"
Just as Lu Jin finished speaking, Dong Guo Zhi snorted in disdain, "Borrow a knife to kill? Putting aside the fact that Ou Qing is no match for me, even you and Shi Kun who was killed by the black-robed man are no match for Elder Wang who is by my side? "
The Elder Wang that Dong Guo Zhi spoke of was the old man behind him.
"Indeed, Shi Kun and I are no match for this Elder Wang even if we join forces."
Lu Jin glanced at the old man behind Dong Guozhi with a fearful expression, then continued, "But, do you and this Elder Wang dare to kill us?"
"As long as the scene of you killing us is transmitted to the leader of the Seven Kill Alliance through the Mirror Image Talisman, the Seven Kill Alliance will fight to the death with the Thousand Years Alliance!"
"At that time, our Seven Kill Alliance and your Thousand Years Alliance will fight to the death, and both sides will suffer losses … Moreover, the Everlasting Alliance will be the third party to benefit!"
"Young Master Dongguo, even a boor like me can think of this … Don't tell me you can't think of this!"
Lu Jin did not hold back when he said this, causing Dong Guo Zhi's expression to darken even more.
However, Lu Jin did not intend to let him off so easily. "Mister Black Robe, the lightning penalty oath that I made with my Young Master today has no loopholes, so you don't have to worry that we will spread news of what happened today …"
However, this Young Leader of the Thousand Years Alliance, Dong Guo Zhi, who loves to stir up trouble, might spread the news of what happened today! "
After all, so long as he spreads news of this matter, you'll become an enemy of our Seven Kill Alliance. Once you become an enemy of our Seven Kill Alliance, many people from our Seven Kill Alliance will definitely die in your hands. "
"For him, this is a matter of great benefit and no harm!"
"If he's unwilling to make the lightning penalty oath, I suggest you kill him and the people around him!"
Although Lu Jin's words sounded like a warning to Duan Lingtian, it was similar to Dong Guo Zhi. He wanted to use Duan Lingtian to do his dirty work.
Naturally, Lu Jin was worried about using Duan Lingtian to do his dirty work.
He was not certain if Duan Lingtian was a powerhouse at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
After all, up until now, he was certain Duan Lingtian was stronger than him. He was certain Duan Lingtian might be a powerhouse at the peak of the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
When Lu Jin thought of this, he looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Elder Wang behind Young Master Dongguo is one of the strongest elders in the Thousand Years Alliance. His name is Wang Ding Shan, and he's a powerhouse at the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He's ranked at the 159th place on the Supreme Saint Ranking!"
He stared at Duan Lingtian intently as though he wanted to see how Duan Lingtian would react.
After all, he had revealed the strength of the powerhouse by Dong Guo Zhi's side.
However, Lu Jin was disappointed again.
This was because the black-robed man in front of him was covered by a black robe. He could not see the change in his expression at all.
'However, his body did not tremble when I revealed Wang Ding Shan's strength. Does this mean he's not afraid of Wang Ding Shan?'
Although Lu Jin thought to himself, he was not certain.
He was not the only one who was uncertain. The other three people, including Dong Guo Zhi, were uncertain as well.
"He's ranked at the 159th place on the Supreme Saint Ranking?"
They did not know that Duan Lingtian's thoughts drifted away when he heard Lu Jin's words. It was as though he had returned to the time when he had just arrived at the Upper Province and the Zoroastrianism.
"I remember that the Black Turtle Sanctum's First Silver Flame Elder, Li An, is ranked at the 139th place on the Supreme Saint Ranking."
Duan Lingtian recalled the Zoroastrianism's Silver Flame Elder, Li An. Li An's ranking on the Supreme Saint Ranking was very close to Wang Ding Shan's.
'Back then, I was like an ant in front of Li An. I could only rely on the Zoroastrianism's rules to survive. Now, I'm not afraid even if Li An is standing in front of me!'
Duan Lingtian's eyes shone with confidence when he thought of this.
After a long time, Duan Lingtian finally regained his senses. He asked Lu Jin indifferently, "You want to kill someone with a borrowed knife as well?"
Almost as soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, the Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Universe Ruler, had already appeared under his sleeve. It was completely hidden. Nobody could see it at all.
In the next moment …
Whoosh!
Before Lu Jin could react, Duan Lingtian had already arrived in front of him.
"Universe Teleportation!"
In the blink of an eye, Duan Lingtian raised his hand and waved his sleeve that contained the Universe Ruler.
In an instant, the space he was in trembled once more. Moreover, it started to warp and fold. It was like the ripples caused by a rock that had fallen into a calm lake.
At the very least, that was what Ou Qing, Dong Guo Zhi, and Wang Ding Shan thought.
Bang!
In the next moment, with a loud bang in the ears of the three of them, the blurry void that was like ripples in front of them returned to its original calm state.
At the same time, they saw Lu Jin flying backward like an arrow that was shot out of a bow. Blood spurted out of his mouth as though it was free. He was in a wretched state.
It was obvious the loud noise came from the black-robed man's energy landing on Lu Jin.
In just a blink of an eye, Lu Jin who was ranked 295th on the Supreme Saint Ranking was severely injured!
'How powerful!'
Ou Qing and Dong Guo Zhi's hearts skipped a beat. A hint of dread appeared in Wang Ding Shan's eyes as he stood behind Dong Guo Zhi.
He was certain the black-robed man's ability to distort and fold space was a Divine Ability. However, he could not see through it at all.
For this reason, he could not help but feel wary.
After severely injuring Lu Jin, Duan Lingtian shifted his attention to Dong Guo Zhi and said indifferently, "Swear on the lightning penalty oath like they did or die!"
Although Duan Lingtian's tone was calm, his tone became heavier when he said the word 'die'.
Dong Guo Zhi's expression changed drastically.
Wang Ding Shan who was standing behind Dong Guo Zhi had a grave expression on his face as well. He leaned forward slightly, preparing to attack Duan Lingtian.
However, he was stopped by Dong Guo Zhi.
"Elder Wang, just bear with it for now. After all, we don't know the background of this black-robed man. If you attack recklessly, you'll only anger him. At that time, if he's stronger than you, it'll be difficult for both of us to survive. "
Dong Guo Zhi sent a Voice Transmission to Wang Ding Shan. "Let's do as he says first. It won't be too late to deal with him after we meet up with my father and the others. We only swore that we wouldn't tell anyone about what we saw. We didn't swear that we wouldn't cause trouble for him or kill him! "
Dong Guo Zhi's Voice Transmission was enough to show how calm and cautious he was.
After all, even Wang Ding Shan was not confident he could defeat Duan Lingtian.
The confidence that Duan Ling Tian imperceptibly revealed caused him to have no choice but to be fearful.
"As you wish."
Dong Guo Zhi and Wang Ding Shan cooperated and swore on the lightning penalty oath. They swore that they would not tell anyone about what they saw. Otherwise, they would be killed by the lightning penalty.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Dong Guo Zhi sighed in relief when nine claps of thunder sounded in the sky. He felt that this matter had come to an end.
"Elder Wang, let's go!"
Dong Guo Zhi called out to Wang Ding Shan and prepared to leave.
"Wait!"
However, just as Dong Guo Zhi was about to ask Wang Ding Shan to leave, Duan Ling Tian spoke again.
Dong Guo Zhi's expression darkened when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. "Elder Wang and I have already swore on the lightning penalty oath according to your request. What else do you want?"
"Don't push it!"
