"I've heard of her."
Upon hearing Long Fei Yun's words, Duan Lingtian said, "She's the third miss of the Zhou clan. She's the elder sister of the fourth miss of the Zhou clan, Zhou Shu Dong. However, didn't she leave with her master a few years ago?"
A few days ago, he had heard about Zhou Shu Qiu in various restaurants in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. He knew she was the most talented person in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom in the past 1,000 years. She was taken in by the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect when she was young.
When she was slightly over 100 years old, her cultivation base was already a Great Overarching Golden Celestial.
Currently, she was already an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Moreover, she was not an ordinary Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
Her master, the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, had retired. Her senior sister had taken over as the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect.
When Duan Lingtian first heard about Zhou Shu Qiu, he was slightly afraid of her.
However, when he heard she had left with her master a few years ago, he did not pay much attention to her.
After all, he might have left the capital of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom and the Wasteland by the time Zhou Shu Qiu returned.
Long Fei Yun continued to say, "Indeed, she left before this.
However, she returned last month. As far as I know, it's because of the Grand Contest of the Wasteland that's going to be held a year later. There might be some secrets behind the Grand Contest of the Wasteland that only the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland knows about.
This isn't the first time the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland have organized the Grand Contest of the Wasteland. However, there's never been a requirement for young powerhouses under the age of 100 to participate.
I have a feeling the Grand Contest of the Wasteland this time isn't as simple as it seems. "
Long Fei Yun finished speaking.
"There was no age restriction in the Grand Contest of the Wasteland in the past?"
Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow.
"There wasn't."
Long Fei Yun shook his head. "In the past, as long as you're strong enough, you can participate regardless of your age. As long as you perform well, you'll be able to join the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland. For this reason, some of the outer disciples in the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland are thousands of years old or even close to 10,000 years old.
"Of course, if an ordinary outer disciple has not passed the test of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland and becomes an official disciple, they will be expelled from the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland."
Long Feiyun continued.
Duan Lingtian nodded and returned to the topic at hand. "Since Zhou Shu Qiu has returned, my friend and I will visit your palace."
Zhou Shu Qiu was different from the Fourth Prince, Long Xiang Yun, whom Zhou Shu Dong had asked for help.
Zhou Shu Qiu was the direct disciple of the former Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect. She was the junior sister of the current Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect.
At that time, Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er would be in danger.
On the other hand, if Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er went to the thirteenth prince's palace, there was still a certain amount of risk.
He was certain the thirteenth prince would protect him.
Moreover, the thirteenth prince was confident the thirteenth prince would be able to protect him.
Duan Lingtian could understand the thirteenth prince's confidence.
Although he had offended Zhou Shu Dong, the Fourth Miss of the Zhou Clan, he did not kill or cripple her. He had only killed an elder from the Zhou Clan. Therefore, the thirteenth prince would definitely be able to protect him.
Duan Lingtian did not tell the thirteenth prince that Huan 'er was his junior sister. He only told the thirteenth prince that Huan' er was his friend.
After all, the thirteenth prince knew everything he had said to the fourth prince was a lie. He knew he was not a disciple of a powerful sect outside the Wasteland.
"It's alright … Brother Duan, you can stay with your friend at my place for the next year."
Long Feiyun smiled.
"There's no need for me to stay here … I'll follow you to pick up your friend."
Long Feiyun said to Duan Lingtian as he rose to his feet.
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian nodded and stood up as well. Then, he and Long Feiyun left the First Earth Room in the Nian clan's auction house.
The middle-aged man named Qiu Ling followed the two of them out of the First Earth Room.
"Thirteenth brother, the auction isn't over yet. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
As soon as the three of them left the First Earth Room and were about to leave the Nian clan's auction house, a burst of hearty laughter rang in their ears.
Following that, Duan Lingtian saw a young man dressed in a green robe.
A tall young man in a golden-green robe was escorted by the person in charge of the Nian Family's auction house and an old man in a black robe. He greeted Long Feiyun with a smile.
When Duan Lingtian heard how the green-clad young man addressed Long Feiyun, he guessed the young man's identity.
The young man was none other than the seventh prince, Long Qingyun!
"Seventh brother."
Duan Lingtian's guess was confirmed by Long Feiyun's greeting.
"Brother Duan, if I'm not mistaken, my seventh brother is here for me. To be more precise, he's here for Qiu Ling. "
Long Feiyun's Voice Transmission entered Duan Lingtian's ears. "The person in charge of the Nian clan's auction house must have noticed that Qiu Ling is a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial … It's not a good thing for my seventh brother to have a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial by my side."
A hint of mockery could be heard in Long Feiyun's voice.
"Brother, I heard about you from my seventh brother. I wanted to visit you at the Fleeting Time Inn, but I didn't expect to bump into you here …"
At this moment, Long Qing Yun, the seventh prince, had already arrived in front of Duan Ling Tian and Long Fei Yun. He greeted Duan Ling Tian enthusiastically.
After all, in his opinion, Duan Lingtian was an extremely talented person.
After all, Duan Lingtian was a disciple from a powerful sect outside the Wasteland.
It was almost impossible to recruit such a person, but he could not afford to offend him either.
Naturally, Long Qing Yun was only being polite when he said he wanted to visit Duan Lingtian. If he really wanted to visit him, he would have done so long ago. He did not want to be like his fourth brother, who had given him the cold shoulder.
It was best not to provoke such a person.
"Seventh prince."
Duan Lingtian greeted Long Feiyun indifferently.
This made Long Qing Yun even more certain that Duan Lingtian was from a powerful sect.
Duan Lingtian was a proud and arrogant disciple from a powerful sect outside the Wasteland.
"Thirteenth brother, this is the first time I've seen this person behind you."
Long Qing Yun nodded at Duan Lingtian before he shifted his gaze to Long Fei Yun. Then, he looked at Qiu Ling who was standing behind Long Fei Yun and asked meaningfully, "This isn't the earth-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial our father gave you, right?"
A hint of mockery could be heard in Long Qing Yun's voice as he spoke.
Long Fei Yun and the Fourth Prince were protected by heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials their father had given them.
Although the Thirteenth Prince was not inferior to them in any way, he was not treated as well. Like the other princes, he was only protected by an earth-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
"His name is Qiu Ling, and he's a powerhouse I recruited from outside."
Long Fei Yun replied.
As soon as Long Fei Yun finished speaking, Long Qing Yun's gaze turned cold as he looked at Qiu Ling. Then, he said, "You're an outsider with an unknown origin. Why are you hiding by my thirteenth brother's side?
Thirteenth prince, this person has an unknown origin. I'm afraid it'll be detrimental to you if he continues to stay by your side. "
At the same time, the black-robed old man behind Long Qingyun suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Qiu Ling who was behind Long Feiyun. Then, he shot toward Qiu Ling like a bolt of lightning.
"Let me kill this person to share your burden, thirteenth prince!"
The black-clad old man said coldly as he made his move toward Qiu Ling.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Before Duan Lingtian could regain his senses, the black-robed old man and Qiu Ling had already exchanged blows. A series of loud bangs that sounded like the beating of drums were clearly heard by Duan Lingtian and the rest.
However, the two of them were very restrained as they fought. They worked together to create a light barrier that separated them from the outside world.
Boom!!
Rumble!!
…
When Duan Lingtian and the others came back to their senses and looked over, they saw that there was no one there.
Not far from them, the black-robed old man was engaged in an intense battle with Qiu Ling.
With their eyesight, they couldn't see the two's movements clearly. They could only see two different forces wreaking havoc in a seemingly isolated space.
About 15 minutes later.
Bang!!
A loud, muffled sound rang out.
Following that, Duan Lingtian and the others could also see:
At this moment, cracks began to appear on the light screen that separated this space like glass. The cracks intertwined like a spider web. In the end, the light screen shattered.
Swoosh!
At the same time, the sound of a gust of wind rang in their ears. Qiu Ling, who looked slightly wretched, had returned to Long Fei Yun's side.
Swoosh!
Meanwhile, a black figure was sent flying before he fell to the ground with a loud thud. Although he quickly stood up, he looked even more wretched than before.
The black-robed old man stood up and returned to Long Qing Yun's side with an unsightly expression on his face.
Long Qing Yun's expression was unsightly as well.
He did not expect this.
The heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial that his thirteenth brother had found was much stronger than the heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial that his father had given him.
"Elder Wu, with Qiu Ling's strength, if he wanted to harm me, he would've done it a long time ago. He has been following me for a year. So, you don't have to worry about my safety. "
Long Fei Yun said with a smile as he looked at the black-robed old man standing behind Long Qing Yun.
"Humph!"
The black-robed old man scoffed. He did not dare to make a move.
Although the Emperor disliked the thirteenth prince, he was not someone the black-robed old man could touch.
Moreover, even if he could, he might not be able to do anything to the thirteenth prince.
After all, the thirteenth prince had a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial who was stronger than him.
