"Yes, Lord City Governor."
Miao Lai Long nodded in response to Liu Feng Gu's question.
He had come to deliver the Celestial Stones that the Silverwyrm Army had mined last month to the City Governor of Bloody Specter City.
Both the Silverwyrm Army and the Black Dragon Army were required to hand over 80% of the Celestial Stones they mined every month. The remaining 20% would be used to pay the soldiers.
At the beginning of every month, the Commanders of the Silverwyrm Army and the Black Dragon Army had to come to the City Governor's estate to hand over the Celestial Stones.
Miao Lai Long was here today to hand over the Celestial Stones.
"I heard that a month ago, Captain Duan Lingtian of the Black Dragon Army crippled one of your subordinates, Captain Yang Kong Ping. Yang Kong Ping is your brother-in-law. After the incident, your sister brought him to the Silverwyrm Army's camp immediately, "Liu Feng Gu said.
Liu Feng Gu looked at Miao Lai Long meaningfully before he asked, "Didn't your sister ask you to stand up for her husband? Aren't you going to stand up for your sister and brother-in-law? "
"Lord City Governor!"
Miao Lai Long seemed to have expected this. As soon as Liu Feng Gu finished speaking, he quickly replied, "I've already investigated the matter a month ago. It was my subordinate, Captain Yang Kong Ping, who was at fault."
Even if he's at fault, don't you think Captain Duan Lingtian of the Black Dragon Army's actions are a little too much? Can you tolerate him? "
Liu Feng Gu asked with a smile on his face.
He knew Miao Lai Long's temper very well.
Not only was Yang Kong Ping a Captain, but he was also Miao Lai Long's brother-in-law.
Even if Yang Kong Ping was just a Chiliarch under Miao Lai Long's command, Miao Lai Long would never let this matter rest!
"I can't tolerate it. However, for the sake of Bloody Specter City and Nine Specters County, I've decided to tolerate it!"
Miao Lai Long said righteously.
"For the sake of Bloody Specter City? For the sake of Nine Specters County? "
Liu Feng Gu was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"Lord Governor, do you know that Duan Lingtian, the Chiliarch of the Black Dragon Army, ascended from the mundane realm one and a half months ago?"
Miao Lai Long said solemnly.
"I've heard about that."
Liu Feng Gu said nonchalantly, "A month ago in Lai Feng Restaurant, the centurion under your command said that Duan Lingtian, the captain of the Black Dragon Army, had only ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven half a month ago. Moreover, he said that Duan Lingtian came out from the Immortal Ascension Pool. "
"Ridiculous!"
"A Celestial Immortal who came out of the Celestial Immortal Ascension Pool … can be as powerful as Duan Lingtian?"
Liu Feng Gu shook his head when he reached the end of his sentence.
A person who had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven and had just become a Heavenly Celestial had crippled a Chiliarch of the Silverwyrm Army?
In his opinion, this was something that was utterly impossible!
"City Lord … doesn't seem to believe me?"
Miao Lai Long smiled bitterly.
"What? Do you believe me? "
Liu Feng Gu asked.
"City Lord … Although there's no lightning penalty oath in the Devata Realms, I can't guarantee you with my life," Miao Lai Long said solemnly.
Miao Lai Long looked at Liu Feng Gu solemnly before he said, "However, I'm willing to swear on my honor that Duan Ling Tian ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven one and a half months ago!"
At that time, apart from my centurions and decurions, some of the people who ascended at the same time as Duan Lingtian saw him in the Immortal Ascension Pool. If you're worried my men are lying, you can ask those who ascended at the same time as Duan Lingtian to verify this! "
Miao Lai Long said as he gave Liu Feng Gu a suggestion.
"Lai Long, you've been my subordinate for many years … It's not that I don't believe you."
When Liu Feng Gu saw how serious Miao Lai Long was, to the extent that he was willing to let Liu Feng Gu find an Ascender to verify his theory, he began to waver. "However, do you think that's possible? A Heavenly Celestial who has just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven is stronger than a Chiliarch under your command!
If I'm not mistaken, your Captain, Yang Kong Ping, is an Orange Sun Golden Celestial with extraordinary strength. Among the ten captains under your command, he's ranked in the top three. "
Let alone a Heavenly Celestial who has just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, even a Golden Celestial who has just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven wouldn't be a match for Yang Kong Ping! "
Although Liu Feng Gu was slightly shaken, he still found it hard to believe.
"Lord City Governor, as far as I know, the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that Duan Ling Tian has mastered are extremely profound. Not only that, but he even knows a technique that allows him to snatch other people's Celestial Weapons!
Half a month ago, two of my centurions fought with him and lost their Celestial Weapons! "
Miao Lai Long continued to say.
"I … It's because I'm certain he's a Heavenly Celestial who has mastered profound Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that I feel he's a great talent for Bloody Specter City and Nine Specters County. That's why I decided not to pursue the matter from a month ago. "
Miao Lai Long put on a 'righteous' look again. "Otherwise, with my temper, I wouldn't have let go of what happened a month ago!"
"City Lord, if you want to confirm it with the people who ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven with Duan Lingtian, you can follow me to the Silverwyrm Army's camp and confirm it with them."
Miao Lai Long looked at Liu Feng Gu solemnly as he said, "Those people have just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven for a month … In their eyes, you're much more powerful than me, the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army. They won't lie to you because of me!"
"Since you've said so much, I'll follow you!"
Liu Feng Gu was beginning to believe Miao Lai Long's words. However, he still wanted to confirm it with Miao Lai Long.
It was just as Miao Lai Long had said.
For someone who had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven, his authority as the City Governor of Bloody Specter City was far greater than the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army. Therefore, it was impossible for the City Governor of Bloody Specter City to lie to him.
Moreover, if Miao Lai Long's words were true, it would explain why Miao Lai Long did not make things difficult for Duan Lingtian.
"City Lord, this way please!"
Miao Lai Long's eyes flashed as he rose to his feet and gestured for Liu Feng Gu to follow him.
After a while, Liu Feng Gu made his move.
Miao Lai Long followed closely behind him.
When Miao Lai Long followed Liu Feng Gu out of the City Governor's mansion and Bloody Specter City, a hint of smugness could be seen in the depths of his eyes as he thought to himself, 'That's right.
He thought to himself, 'Duan Lingtian, this is just the beginning. If I have the chance, I'll spread the news that you possess a precious treasure!
Of course, you'll have to get past the City Lord first! '
A hint of viciousness flashed in the depths of Miao Lai Long's eyes when he thought about this.
Ever since Miao Lai Long had witnessed Duan Lingtian's strength, he knew there was nothing he could do to Duan Lingtian.
Moreover, Miao Lai Long had taught Duan Lingtian a graded cultivation method. Since Duan Lingtian had something on him, he could not make things difficult for the City Lord of Bloody Specter City.
However, even if he could not use the incident a month ago to make things difficult for the City Governor of Bloody Specter City, it did not mean he could not use the Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities that Duan Lingtian had mastered as bait to lure the City Governor of Bloody Specter City to deal with Duan Lingtian.
He believed:
The City Governor of Bloody Specter City would definitely be interested in the various profound Celestial Techniques and Divine Abilities Duan Lingtian had mastered.
No one could resist the temptation of Immortal Arts and Divine Abilities.
…
The camp of the Black Dragon Army.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was still in closed-door cultivation. He had no idea what Miao Lai Long, the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army, was doing.
In a month's time, he had grasped the basics of the new cultivation method, the "Crystal Clearance Method". At the same time, he could clearly feel that:
The Celestial Origin Energy in his body had also become purer.
He knew this was the effect of the Crystal Clearance Tactic, a grade-one cultivation method in the Devata Realms, on his Celestial Origin Energy.
Apart from that, Duan Lingtian also discovered that the Crystal Clearance Method was much better.
Compared to the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique in the mundane realm, the Crystal Clearance Tactic's cultivation speed was more than twice as fast. One could clearly feel the increase in one's cultivation base.
In just a blink of an eye, two weeks had passed.
"I've made a breakthrough!"
Inside the tent, Duan Ling Tian who had been cultivating with his eyes closed suddenly opened his eyes that were as bright as the stars. A hint of an excited smile appeared on his originally calm face in a timely manner.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian had officially broken through and become an Indigo Moon Heavenly Celestial.
He was only a step away from becoming a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial who was at the peak of the Heavenly Celestial Stage.
"If I were to face Miao Lai Long, the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army, now, even if I don't use my Celestial Weapon, I'll still be able to defeat him easily!"
Duan Lingtian muttered to himself as he sensed the transformation of his Celestial Origin Energy.
Currently, his Celestial Origin Energy had also broken through to the next level.
Naturally, if this was all, he would not be able to defeat Miao Lai Long without using his Celestial Weapon or taking his Celestial Weapon.
However, after this cultivation session, Duan Lingtian's strength had improved a lot.
His Celestial Origin Energy had been tempered by the Crystal Clearance Tactic, a graded cultivation method in the Devata Realm. Now that he had cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, the strength of his Celestial Origin Energy had increased as well.
It was completely different from before.
'I wonder how much my Celestial Origin Energy will increase if I cast the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic?'
Out of curiosity, Duan Lingtian quickly cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic and began to devour the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the area around his tent.
Fortunately, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the area was abundant.
