Swallow Mountain County's County Governor?
Pei San's father?
Duan Lingtian sized up the middle-aged man in luxurious clothes before him with interest.
"Commander Duan."
Pei Yuan greeted Duan Lingtian warmly, then he greeted Su Mo, Lin Yu, and Ji Yan.
In the next moment, his hand descended and directly crippled Zhu Liang's dantian!
"Pei Yuan!"
Instantly, Zhu Liang cried out sorrowfully, and his eyes were crimson red as he glared angrily at Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan ignored Zhu Liang and casually threw Zhu Liang at Duan Lingtian's feet. "Commander Duan, since it's your first time in my Swallow Mountain County's County City, consider this untrustworthy villain my gift to you … Although, even if I didn't make a move, he wouldn't have been able to escape."
As he finished speaking, Pei Yuan's gaze fell onto Xiong Quan, who had returned to Duan Lingtian's side, and he was slightly fearful.
"Then I'll thank County Governor Pei."
Duan Lingtian nodded and smiled at Pei Yuan, then he raised his leg and fiercely stomped on Zhu Liang's body …
Bang!
Instantly, Zhu Liang's body came into 360-degree contact with the ground, without any blind spots.
"Little Fei."
Duan Lingtian called out to Li Fei, then he seized the grade eight spirit sword from Zhu Liang's hand and passed it to Li Fei, who had stepped forward.
"No … Don't …"
After Zhu Liang saw the killing intent emitted from Li Fei's beautiful eyes, a chill arose in his heart, and he hurriedly cried out in fear.
Whoosh!
Li Fei's gaze was cold as she raised her hand and released her Origin Energy. Her sword descended and pierced through Zhu Liang's body, nailing Zhu Liang's body to the ground.
Blood splattered everywhere …
Resplendent and dazzling.
The hatred on Li Fei's face finally vanished like smoke into thin air when she saw Zhu Liang take his last breath. But when she thought of her grandfather, she felt a wave of heartache, and she threw herself into Duan Ling Tian's embrace as she sobbed silently.
"Alright, now that you've avenged Grandpa, Grandpa will be able to rest in peace."
Duan Lingtian gently patted Li Fei's back and comforted her softly.
At this time, the people present suddenly realized that Duan Lingtian was not avenging his own grandfather, but the grandfather of his confidante.
"What a beautiful woman!"
"This is the first time in my life that I've seen such a stunning beauty."
"I'm afraid only a talent like Commander Duan is worthy of her."
…
The onlookers cheered again.
A trace of admiration rose in their hearts towards Duan Lingtian's actions of getting angry over a woman.
A good man should be like a commander in brocade clothes!
Destroying the Zhu Clan in anger for a woman!
"Commander Duan, you've come from afar. As the Swallow Mountain County's County Governor, I have to perform the duties of a host no matter what … Duan Lingtian, please do me the honor of coming to my County Governor's Estate for a gathering."
Pei Yuan was an intelligent person, and he only invited Duan Lingtian after he comforted Li Fei.
"County Governor Pei, we're intending to invite Commander Duan for a gathering as well."
Ji Yan lightly smiled. Although Pei Yuan was the Swallow Mountain County's County Governor, he didn't mind in the slightest. Pei Yuan was only a Half-step Void Stage martial artist like him.
When he saw Pei Yuan and Ji Yan fighting for Duan Lingtian, Su Mo laughed heartily. "No matter where this kid goes, this old fellow will follow along to join in the fun and freeload a meal … You two wouldn't mind, right?"
"Vice Guild Master Su, you're joking. It's an honor."
Pei Yuan and Ji Yan practically spoke in unison.
Meanwhile, Duan Lingtian had already put away the spatial rings of all the Chu family members and the two grade eight spirit swords …
He noticed that Pei Yuan and Ji Yan were both looking at him, waiting for him to make a decision.
"County Governor Pei, Duan Lingtian will remember your favor today. However, Commander Ji is my senior, and as a junior, I don't dare disobey the orders of a senior … So, I hope County Governor Pei can forgive me. "
Duan Lingtian tactfully refused Pei Yuan.
He couldn't help but think evilly in his heart.
If Pei Yuan knew that the culprit that crippled his son's arm was right before him, I wonder what expression he would have …
Pei Yuan was the Swallow Mountain County's County Governor after all. He wasn't unhappy in the slightest when facing Duan Lingtian's refusal, and the smile on his face still remained. "Then Pei Yuan won't force you … But, the door to my County Governor's Estate will always be open to Commander Duan. No matter when Commander Duan comes, the County Governor's Estate will always treat Commander Duan as an honored guest."
"Thank you, County Governor Pei."
Duan Lingtian nodded. This Pei Yuan was more than just a little bit stronger than Pei San. As expected of a County Governor!
"Then Pei Yuan will take his leave first."
Pei Yuan bid his farewells to Duan Lingtian before leaving.
He came like the wind and left like the wind, incomparably confident and at ease.
Along with the departure of Duan Lingtian's group, the group of people gathered at the city's trade market finally dispersed as well.
What happened today was bound to be hung on the mouths of the people of the County City for a very long time in the future ….
Besides this, the Chu family had completely declined.
Yu Clan Estate.
"Chu family …."
The Yu Clan's Patriarch, Yu Dian, had a complicated gaze. The foundation of a great clan that wasn't inferior to his Yu Clan was completely destroyed by a young man that wasn't even 20 years old!
"That Duan Lingtian …. Perhaps, I shouldn't have allowed Second Brother and Grand Elder to seek revenge on him. Now, Second Brother and Grand Elder are dead, and even the Supreme Elder that went to the Imperial City later on has completely vanished without a trace. They surely have met with misfortune. "
Yu Dian's face was covered in bitterness.
Presently, the people of the County City only knew that Duan Lingtian had destroyed the Chu family.
But only he knew that Duan Lingtian hadn't only destroyed the Chu family, he'd also destroyed his Yu Clan.
Fortunately, the news of the disappearance of the few Nascent Soul Stage martial artists of the Yu Clan had been sealed off by him. Otherwise, the Yu Clan would have probably ceased to exist long ago.
Even if they were able to struggle at death's door, it would be impossible for them to have the status they had today.
Of course, even though he knew that the instigator of all this was Duan Lingtian, Yu Dian didn't dare have any thoughts of taking revenge.
What a joke!
Not to mention Duan Lingtian's current status, just the network of relationships that Duan Lingtian had, any random power was sufficient to annihilate his Yu Clan!
"Duan Lingtian …. He's simply the nemesis of my Yu Clan."
Yu Dian muttered to himself, and his tone was filled with bitterness.
Agarwood Restaurant.
As the property of the Violet Tulip Trading Company in the County City, this Agarwood Restaurant was countless times more luxurious than the Agarwood Restaurant in Duan Lingtian's hometown, Fresh Breeze Town.
Presently, in the pavilion on the top floor of Agarwood Restaurant, five people were sitting in a circle.
Only one person was standing, and that was Xiong Quan, who stood behind Duan Lingtian.
Xiong Quan stood there, unmoving like a mountain.
However, at this moment, besides Duan Lingtian and Li Fei, Su Mo, Lin Yu, and Ji Yan were all slightly restless ….
"Commander Duan, you should let this Lord sit down."
Ji Yan glanced at Xiong Quan as he spoke to Duan Lingtian. Unknowingly, a wisp of a bitter smile appeared on the corners of his mouth.
When a dignified Void Prying Stage expert stood at the side, he would feel slightly restless no matter what.
Lin Yu and Su Mo looked at Duan Lingtian as well.
Duan Lingtian noticed the difficult situation of the three and shook his head with a smile. "Xiong Quan, sit down."
"Yes, Young Master."
Xiong Quan replied and sat down respectfully.
Only then did Ji Yan and the others heave a sigh of relief.
In next to no time, the food was served. It was all delicious delicacies, and there was also plenty of fine wine ….
"Little Sister Fei is worthy of being one of the three great beauties of Aurora City. Truly beautiful."
Lin Yu looked at Li Fei and lightly smiled.
Li Fei's beautiful face blushed slightly and was slightly embarrassed. "Guild Master Lin, you're very beautiful as well."
Here, the two women were whispering to each other.
On the other side, Duan Lingtian was chatting with Ji Yan and Su Mo ….
"Kid, you made the right choice that time. Fortunately, you didn't follow me back to the Alchemist Guild that year. Otherwise, it would simply be burying your talent …. During the battle at the northwest border, you commanded our Crimson Sky Kingdom's army to show our might. Even I, this old fellow, have no choice but to admire you! "
Su Mo drank a few cups of wine and was slightly excited.
"Exactly, that battle could simply be called a classic! Sometimes, I even think about how my blood would boil if I could participate in it as well. "
Ji Yan deeply agreed. As the Guard Commander of the Violet Tulip Trading Company, he had the heart of an iron-blooded man as well.
Duan Lingtian only lightly smiled when he heard this.
Ji Yan had a higher opinion of Duan Lingtian when he saw Duan Lingtian's reaction. "Commander Duan, to a certain extent, you can already be considered to be standing at the peak of the Crimson Sky Kingdom …. Do you have any plans for the future?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed and a trace of yearning flashed within his eyes. "Truthfully speaking, I returned to Swallow Mountain County this time precisely to bid farewell to someone …. After I'm done here, I won't stay in the Imperial City for long before leaving the Crimson Sky Kingdom and heading to the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom."
Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom!
Ji Yan and Su Mo weren't surprised by Duan Lingtian's decision.
With Duan Lingtian's strength and natural talent, staying in the Crimson Sky Kingdom would only hinder his development.
Duan Lingtian didn't belong to the Crimson Sky Kingdom!
The Crimson Sky Kingdom was unable to trap him.
It was impossible for a dragon to be trapped in the ocean forever. It would eventually leap out of the ocean and soar into the nine heavens!
"Have you prepared to join a sect?"
Ji Yan asked.
As far as he was concerned, since Duan Lingtian wanted to go to the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, he surely had to find a sect to join.
After all, only within those sects would he be able to obtain a better improvement.
A sect was not only a stage for experts to compete for supremacy, it was also the best springboard, and it was the best choice for a genius in the Martial Dao like Duan Lingtian.
"Not yet."
Duan Lingtian shook his head. His knowledge of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom was limited to the Boundless Sect and the Black Fiend Sect.
The Boundless Sect was the sect that Xiong Quan used to be in.
The Black Fiend Sect was the sect that annihilated the Boundless Sect.
When he thought of the Black Fiend Sect, a trace of coldness flashed within the depths of Duan Lingtian's eyes.
All those years ago, the scene in the Misty Forest was something he couldn't forget for his entire lifetime …
"Kid, remember, you're just an ant before me! If I wanted to kill you, it would be no different than stepping on an ant …. I disdain to kill you! "
These were the words that the Void Stage expert of the Black Fiend Sect, Sun Rui, said to him ….
Words that trampled on his dignity!
At that time, he was only a little bit away from dying at the hands of Sun Rui.
That feeling of suffocation was something he couldn't forget for his entire lifetime.
"Disdain?"
Traces of rage arose within Duan Lingtian's heart.
