Time continued to pass by.
In just a blink of an eye, it was time for the monthly auction held by the Nian clan's auction house.
In the Fleeting Time Inn, a group of people walked out of the door. There was an old man or a middle-aged man walking in front of them. They were all expressionless as they escorted the group of people to the Nian clan's auction house.
Two of them were Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Fleeting Time Inn.
The other two were also Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Nian clan's auction house.
The people being escorted by the four of them were all guests of the Fleeting Time Inn. Most of them had chosen to stay in the Fleeting Time Inn in order to avoid being hunted down by their enemies. It was all for the sake of the inn's protection.
"Brother, did you offend anyone?"
Duan Ling Tian was originally walking quietly at the back of the group of people when suddenly, a young man slowed down his footsteps and waited for Duan Ling Tian to catch up before turning to look at him and asking curiously.
"I didn't offend anyone."
Duan Lingtian said indifferently.
"You didn't offend anyone? Why are you staying in the Fleeting Time Inn? Brother, isn't that a little too extravagant? "
The young man was surprised. However, a hint of doubt could be seen in his eyes. Clearly, he did not believe Duan Lingtian's words.
"It's alright."
Duan Lingtian said indifferently.
"Brother, do you know why I'm staying in the Fleeting Time Inn?"
The young man chuckled with a smug expression on his face.
"Why?"
Duan Lingtian was about to say that he was not interested. However, after thinking about it, he decided to listen to the young man's story since he had nothing to do along the way.
"It's because after I took the virginity of the Young Miss of the Chi clan, I killed her. Now, the Chi clan wants to kill me as soon as possible. I took the supreme Celestial Stones from the Young Miss of the Chi clan's Spatial Ring and squandered them in the Fleeting Time Inn. "
The young man smiled smugly.
"Speaking of which, that happened a few months ago. Do you see that old man over there? That's the patriarch of the Chi family. He's been waiting outside the tavern every day, waiting for me to exact his revenge. "
The young man pointed into the distance as he spoke to Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian looked over.
In the distance, there was an old man in mourning clothes and a few middle-aged men in mourning clothes standing at the side.
The old man's eyes were red as he stared at the young man who was talking to him.
Through the old man's eyes, Duan Lingtian could clearly sense the deep-seated hatred in the old man's heart.
When he looked at the old man, he clearly saw that the old man's gaze was also filled with hostility.
"Why did you take that Miss Chi's body? Did she offend you? Did the Chi family offend you? "
Duan Lingtian asked.
It had been eight days since Duan Lingtian arrived in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. Apart from cultivating in seclusion for the first three days and successfully breaking through to an Indigo Sun Golden Celestial, he did not enter seclusion again. Instead, he left the Fleeting Time Inn and stayed in the halls of several restaurants for a few days.
Five days ago, the Fourth Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom had arrived. After a brief confrontation, he was no longer worried that the Fourth Prince or the Zhou clan would seek revenge on him.
After all, he knew the Fourth Prince and the Zhou clan would not act rashly before they investigated his background.
For this reason, he could leave the Fleeting Time Inn without any worries.
After wandering around for a few days, he had gained a better understanding of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom and the capital. He also gained a better understanding of the major forces in the capital.
However, he had never heard of the Chi family.
Most likely, the Chi family was just a small family in the capital of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. Otherwise, he would have heard of them.
"The Eldest Miss of the Chi family didn't offend me, and the Chi family didn't offend me as well. I just thought the Eldest Miss of the Chi family was pretty and a virgin so I made a move on her. I can't afford to offend the other major clans, but I'm not afraid of the Chi family. "
The young man chuckled as though he was very proud of his actions. "I can't go against the Chi family on my own so I can only hide in the Fleeting Time Inn for the time being.
"In half a month's time, my brother will bring someone to pick me up. With the strength of my brother and his people, the Chi family won't be able to do anything to me. They can only watch as I leave the Fleeting Time Inn and the capital. "
The young man's tone grew more and more smug as he continued to say, "In the end, the supreme Celestial Stones I spent in the Fleeting Time Inn belong to the Eldest Miss of the Chi family. Moreover, when I leave the inn, she still has a lot of supreme Celestial Stones left in her Spatial Ring.
When my brother comes and I leave the Fleeting Time Inn and the capital safely, the Clan Leader of the Chi family will be so angry that he'll vomit blood! "
The young man looked at the Clan Leader of the Chi family in the distance with a smug expression on his face.
"Bastard!"
The Clan Leader of the Chi family was so infuriated by the young man's smug expression that he wanted to kill him, but he was stopped by the people behind him.
He could only glare at the young man with bloodshot eyes as though he wanted nothing more than to gnaw on the young man's bones and drink his blood.
When Duan Ling Tian saw the frenzied expression on the Clan Leader of Chi Clan and the bloodshot eyes of the Clan Leader of Chi Clan, he could not suppress the raging flames of fury in his heart.
"Don't you think you've gone overboard?"
Duan Lingtian asked in a low voice.
"Overboard?"
The young man was taken aback when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. Then, he laughed and said, "Brother, so what if I've gone overboard? In the end, I'm still the winner. Don't tell me the heavens are going to punish me?
To be honest, I've already thought of a way out before I made my move. To me, all of this is just a fun 'game'. "
The smile on the young man's face widened as he spoke.
"Since the heavens aren't going to punish you, I'll punish you instead!"
Duan Lingtian could no longer suppress the anger in his heart when he heard the young man's words. His Celestial Origin Energy that had been accumulating in his body began to gather in his hand.
Swoosh!
A scorching sword ray flashed past. It was Duan Ling Tian who had raised his hand and swung his sword.
Before the young man could react, his head was separated from his body and he was killed!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
In the next moment, with just a thought, the young man's severed body flew out from the crowd and landed in front of the few people from the Chi Clan. The few people from the Chi Clan were dumbfounded.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
…
When the two halves of the young man's body landed on the ground, everyone's expression changed drastically.
No one would have thought that something like this would happen in the blink of an eye.
Boom! Boom!
When the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials regained their senses, their Celestial Origin Energies surged out of their bodies. In just a blink of an eye, they appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian.
Boom! Boom!
When the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials sent by the Nian family were about to attack Duan Lingtian, the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Fleeting Time Inn made their move as well.
Everyone thought the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials were going to attack Duan Lingtian as well.
However, a shocking scene unfolded before everyone's eyes.
At this moment, the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Fleeting Time Inn appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian, blocking the path of the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Nian clan's trading firm. They had no choice but to stop in their tracks.
"Both of you … What are you doing?"
The two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Nian family frowned.
"Gentlemen, the person who died is no longer under the protection of the Fleeting Time Inn. He has already checked out of the inn."
One of the Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Fleeting Time Inn said to the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Nian family.
This Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial was the one who was closest to Duan Lingtian earlier.
The conversation between Duan Ling Tian and the young man, as well as the development of the situation, were all seen and heard by his eyes and ears.
If he had wanted to, he could have easily stopped Duan Lingtian from attacking Duan Lingtian.
However, he did not make a move.
He did not make a move because the innkeeper of the Fleeting Time Inn had told him and another person that the purple-clad guest was not an ordinary guest.
Even the fourth prince would not dare to offend him.
"Checked out?"
The two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Nian family frowned. They found the innkeeper's words ridiculous.
If the purple-clad guest had checked out, how could he have enjoyed the privilege of being escorted to the Nian family's estate?
"Both of you … This purple-clad guest is not an ordinary person. Even the fourth prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom doesn't dare to offend him."
When the other Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial in the Fleeting Time Inn sent a Voice Transmission to the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in the Nian Clan's trading house, their eyes widened in shock.
When they looked at Duan Lingtian again, a hint of fear could be seen in their eyes.
"Both of you, thank you."
At the same time, the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Nian family's estate quickly thanked the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials from the Fleeting Time Inn.
After all, if the two Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials had not warned them, they would have been in deep trouble.
How could they afford to offend someone whom even the fourth prince did not dare to offend?
After a brief moment, the four Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials exchanged a look before they returned to their posts and continued to escort Duan Lingtian and the others to the Nian family's estate.
"Thank you, benefactor! Thank you, benefactor! "
At the same time, the Clan Leader of the Chi clan led the members of the Chi clan to kneel and kowtow as they thanked Duan Lingtian.
Meanwhile, the other guests of the Fleeting Time Inn looked at Duan Lingtian with fear in their eyes.
Checked out?
Naturally, they did not believe such nonsense.
