Taking a deep breath, Li Rou voiced the doubts in her heart.
She stared at her son's eyes, as if she wanted to see something.
"Mother, this isn't the first time I've killed someone."
Duan Lingtian was already prepared. He looked straight ahead and smiled.
"Before today, when did you kill anyone? Why didn't I know? "
Li Rou raised her eyebrows and asked curiously.
"Mother, before today, I killed people in my dreams … and I killed quite a few of them. It was the old man in my dreams who arranged for me to train. I still remember the first time I killed someone in my dreams. I was so scared that I even vomited. "
Duan Lingtian explained.
Another dream!
Although Li Rou didn't really believe her son's words, she didn't know how to explain the changes in her son's body.
"It looks like the old man in your dreams really took good care of you. Tian 'er, let's go to the main hall. The Patriarch is still waiting … "
Taking a deep breath, Li Rou stopped asking.
Duan Lingtian nodded and walked with Li Rou to the Li family's main hall.
"Brother Nanfeng, how have you been?"
When they arrived near the Li family's main hall, they heard a hearty laugh coming from the main hall.
"Chen Li? Why is he here? "
Li Rou heard the voice and felt it was strange.
Soon, she saw a bitter smile on her son's face.
"Tian 'er, you didn't offend the Chen family, did you?"
Li Rou's heart skipped a beat.
The Patriarch of the Chen family came to visit at this time. She couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Duan Lingtian was a little embarrassed. He told her about the conflict with the eldest daughter of the Chen family, Chen Mei Er, at the Agarwood Restaurant.
"So it's like that. It's just a small matter … Chen Li wouldn't come here to denounce us for this matter. It must be something else."
Li Rou sighed in relief. She was really worried that her son had killed the Chen family.
Duan Lingtian followed behind Li Rou and slowly walked into the Li family's main hall. He felt the atmosphere was a little strange.
"Humph!"
Two middle-aged men stepped out and brushed past Duan Lingtian, leaving the Li family's main hall.
His sharp gaze seemed to want to tear Duan Lingtian apart.
"Patriarch … this is …?"
Li Rou looked at Patriarch Li Nanfeng with a puzzled expression.
Before she went to find her son, the two members of the Fang Family wanted her son to pay with his life.
Now that her son was here, they left without another word.
"This matter is all thanks to Niece Mei 'er. Niece Mei' er guessed that the Fang Family would come to our Li family to denounce us, so she asked Family Head Chen to bring her here as a witness … When Duan Lingtian killed Fang Quan, she was also present. The entire matter was caused by Fang Quan's provocation, so Duan Lingtian is not at fault."
Li Nanfeng laughed.
"Thank you, Miss Mei 'er."
Li Rou looked at the young girl in the main hall and smiled.
"Tian 'er, this time it's all thanks to Miss Mei' er. Why aren't you coming over to thank her?"
Li Rou looked at Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed as he looked at Chen Mei 'er with interest. He did not know why she would help him.
"Thank you, Miss Mei 'er."
However, since his mother had spoken, even if he was unwilling, he had to put on an act.
"You're welcome."
Chen Mei 'er blinked her clear eyes and smiled like a flower.
Compared to the unruly young lady at Agarwood Restaurant in the morning, she was like a completely different person.
"Niece Mei 'er is really well-mannered. Patriarch Chen has a good upbringing."
Li Nanfeng looked at the middle-aged man beside Chen Mei 'er and smiled.
The middle-aged man was the Patriarch of the Chen family, Chen Li.
Chen Li shook his head and smiled. His gaze fell on Duan Lingtian.
"How can my daughter compare to this one from the Li family? At such a young age, he already has such strength. In the future, no one in Fresh Breeze Town will be able to compete with him …"
"Ninth Elder, may I ask if your son is already married?"
Then, Chen Li looked at Li Rou.
As soon as Chen Li said this.
Li Rou, Duan Lingtian and Li Nanfeng were all stunned.
The three of them subconsciously looked at Chen Mei 'er who was beside Chen Li and saw that her cheeks were slightly red. They immediately guessed Chen Li's intention.
"This Chen Mei 'er, don't tell me she likes me?"
Duan Lingtian's heart skipped a beat. He could not believe that all this was real.
In the morning at Agarwood Restaurant, Chen Mei 'er and him were like fire and water. No matter how fickle a woman is, she shouldn't be fickle to this extent …
At this time, Duan Lingtian noticed that his mother was looking at him with a mischievous smile in her eyes.
It also seemed like she was asking for his opinion.
He had a helpless expression and shook his head.
"Patriarch Chen, unfortunately, I've just decided on a wife for my son some time ago."
Li Rou looked at Chen Li with an apologetic expression.
"That's a pity. Li family Patriarch, Ninth Elder, Little Brother Duan … Chen Li and my daughter have achieved our goal, so we'll take our leave first. "
Chen Li nodded and left with Chen Mei 'er.
When Chen Mei 'er left, she looked at Duan Lingtian bitterly with a sad expression …
"Ninth Elder, how come I didn't know that you've decided on a wife for Duan Lingtian?"
Li Nanfeng looked at Li Rou with a puzzled expression.
"Patriarch, Kerr is the wife I've decided on for him."
Speaking of Kerr, a sincere smile appeared on Li Rou's face.
Her words caused Duan Ling Tian to be stunned.
He thought to himself:
If that girl Kerr heard her mother's words, she would be so embarrassed that she wouldn't be able to show her face.
"So that's how it is. They're a match made in heaven."
Li Nanfeng nodded with a smile.
"Ninth Elder, First Elder called for me before the two from the Fang Family arrived. I've been delayed for a while, so I'll take my leave first."
Seeing Li Nanfeng leave, a smile appeared on Duan Lingtian's face.
He guessed the reason why First Elder had called for Patriarch Chen, and his heart skipped a beat.
"I hope Patriarch Chen won't be too stingy … Although the Thunder Fire Pill is only a low-level pill, it's of great significance to the Li family."
If the children of the Li family elders took the Thunder Fire Pill and then absorbed the Six Treasures Body Tempering Liquid …
Their cultivation speed would be doubled compared to before!
Of course, this was also the reason why Duan Lingtian was willing to share the Thunder Fire Pill recipe with Li Huo.
He urgently needed the Thunder Fire Pill.
With the help of the Thunder Fire Pill, it wasn't impossible for him to step into the seventh level of the Body Tempering stage in two and a half months.
"Tian, what are you laughing at? I'm telling you, no matter what, you can't let Kerr down. Otherwise, Mother won't forgive you! "
Li Rou's expression turned serious as she spoke to Duan Lingtian.
"Mother, what are you talking about?"
Duan Lingtian laughed bitterly.
What the hell was going on?
"Tian, if you want to go out during this period of time, tell Mother and Mother will go with you."
Li Rou continued.
"Mother, are you worried that the Fang Family will make a move against me?"
Duan Lingtian guessed the reason.
"Yes. No matter if it's Fang Tao or that Fang Xing, they aren't good people. I'm worried that they will secretly make a move against you. "
Li Rou nodded.
"Mother, Fang Quan is Fang Tao's son. It's normal for him to want to find me to take revenge for his son, but why would that Fang Family's third elder, Fang Xing, target me?"
Duan Lingtian was slightly puzzled.
"Tian, Fang Xing and Fang Tao's relationship isn't ordinary. He's Fang Tao's older brother."
Li Rou explained.
"So it's like that."
Duan Lingtian came to a sudden realization.
He didn't expect that Fang Quan, who he killed, was the nephew of the Fang Family's third elder. No wonder the other party directly went to the Li Family to denounce him.
However, the Fang Family should also know that they were in the wrong this time. Otherwise, the one who came this time wouldn't be the Fang Family's third elder, but the Fang Family's patriarch …
Ten days later, Grand Elder Li Huo ordered someone to call Duan Lingtian over.
Duan Lingtian massaged Li Huo one last time and helped him remove his hidden injuries before putting away the first batch of Thunder Flame Pills that Li Huo refined.
This batch of Thunder Flame Pills had a total of 30 pills.
"Kid, this is the 1,000 silver reward I'm giving you. The other 30,000 silver is given to you by the family. Consider it as buying your Thunder Flame Pill formula."
The old man withdrew a large stack of silver bills and passed it to Duan Lingtian.
"Grand Elder, thank you!"
Duan Lingtian took the silver bills in his hand and wasn't courteous in the slightest.
"I see that your fleshly body seems to have reached a critical point. I think you're about to break through to the fifth level of the Body Tempering stage, right? With your natural talent and the help of the Thunder Flame Pills, breaking through to the seventh level of the Body Tempering stage in two months isn't impossible … At that time, relying on your swift sword, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be enough to kill that Fang Qiang! "
The old man narrowed his eyes and slowly said.
"Grand Elder, you already know."
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
It looked like the Grand Elder already knew that he relied on his fourth level Body Tempering cultivation to kill the sixth level Body Tempering stage Fang Quan half a month ago.
"This matter isn't considered a secret in Fresh Breeze Town. Half a month ago, I heard from the Patriarch. Kid, I didn't expect that you'd be so secretive … Looks like Li Jie wasn't crippled by you for nothing! "
The old man glanced deeply at Duan Lingtian.
"I was just lucky."
Duan Lingtian smiled embarrassedly as he stuffed the silver bills into his pocket and left.
"Unfortunately, his ambition isn't in Fresh Breeze Town … Otherwise, it wouldn't be impossible for our Li family to unify Fresh Breeze Town in the future."
The old man sighed, his tone filled with regret.
Duan Lingtian naturally didn't know that the old man thought so highly of him. After leaving the old man's residence, he directly returned home.
He prepared the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid and the bathtub water before taking off his clothes.
He consumed the Thunder Fire Pill.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian could clearly feel waves of soreness coming from every part of his body …
The soreness grew stronger and stronger!
"Hiss hiss ~ ~"
At this moment, Duan Lingtian's body seemed as if it had encountered the impact of thunder fire.
The soreness spread throughout his body, causing him to be unable to help but let out a muffled groan …
Fortunately, having lived two lifetimes, his willpower was incomparably strong, and he easily withstood the medicinal strength of the Thunder Fire Pill.
Half an hour later, Duan Lingtian noticed that the soreness in his body had started to disappear.
At this moment, he clearly felt that the pores all over his body seemed to have completely opened up, greedily absorbing the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid in the bathtub.
The speed of absorption was an entire fold faster than before …
Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Spirit Serpent Form!
Duan Lingtian greedily absorbed the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid and started to circulate the cultivation technique.
The vital energy and blood in his body continuously strengthened, and his fleshly body transformed at an extremely terrifying speed. Soon, he smoothly broke through the critical point.
Fifth level of the Body Tempering Stage!
Duan Lingtian opened his eyes, his face revealing an expression of wild joy.
The Thunder Fire Pill really didn't disappoint him …
Normally, Duan Lingtian could only completely absorb a portion of the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid's medicinal strength every half a day.
This was already his limit.
But after consuming the Thunder Fire Pill.
