Apart from that, there was a young woman who was dressed seductively standing behind the young man.
Although the woman was not as beautiful as Hu Feiyan, she was not inferior to He Qian, the daughter of the He Clan.
"It's him!"
With just a glance, Duan Lingtian recognized the young man. He was none other than Huang Jia Long, the Young Master of Passage City who was defeated by him during the Southern Heaven Combat.
"No wonder someone said Huang Jia Long is a playboy. It seems like that's true. The woman next to him is obviously not a proper lady."
Duan Lingtian glanced at the seductive woman next to Huang Jia Long before he retracted his gaze.
Huang Jia Long noticed Duan Lingtian's gaze when he walked into the restaurant with the seductive woman.
Initially, he thought it was just a normal customer.
However, when he realized that everyone's gazes were on him except for this particular one, he subconsciously glanced in that direction.
His indifferent gaze changed when it landed on Duan Lingtian.
Huang Jia Long's eyes lit up like the stars in the night sky.
"I still have something to do. You can leave now."
Huang Jia Long's eyes lit up. He did not even turn his head as he said indifferently. After that, he left the woman and walked toward Duan Ling Tian.
The seductive woman initially thought the Young Master had left her behind because he had found a new lover. However, when she saw the Young Master was walking toward a handsome purple-clad young man, she could not help but shudder.
Could it be that the Young Master had a change of taste?
"My lord, he's coming."
Liu Guang Lin reminded Duan Lingtian when he saw Huang Jia Long walking toward them. Duan Lingtian merely nodded. He had also noticed Huang Jia Long.
"Brother Duan!"
Duan Lingtian had thought that Huang Jia Long was only there to greet him, but he soon found out that Huang Jia Long sat down directly after he arrived. He even asked the waiter to bring him a wine cup and a set of chopsticks.
It was as if he and Duan Lingtian had been friends for many years. There was not the slightest hint of politeness.
At the same time, the group of drinkers who had been paying attention to Huang Jia Long vaguely guessed the identity of Duan Lingtian when they heard Huang Jia Long call him Duan Lingtian.
"Brother Duan? It seems like the Young City Governor of Passage City is very polite to him … Is there anyone with the surname Duan in the Supporting Fall Nation? "
"Surname Duan, wearing purple clothes … Could this purple-clothed young man be that Duan Lingtian?"
"Duan Lingtian? The young man who defeated the Young City Lord of the Passage City with a single move during the South-Heaven Combat? "
"He's the one who possesses two King Grade Celestial Weapons before he's even 100 years old. He's even stronger than the weakest One Basic Celestial Duke?"
…
Many people had guessed Duan Lingtian's identity. At this moment, Duan Lingtian, who had been sitting in a corner, suddenly became the center of attention.
"Brother Duan, before I met you, I, Huang Jia Long, have never admired anyone. Whether it's my father or the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation, I'm confident I'll surpass them when I'm at their age!"
Huang Jia Long sat down and looked at Duan Lingtian as he said, "After meeting you, I finally know what it's like to admire someone."
"You flatter me, Young City Governor … I've also heard that you're extremely talented. You're a rare genius in the Supporting Fall Nation. If it weren't for your lust for women, I'm afraid you would've surpassed the Fourth Prince."
Duan Ling Tian said modestly as he looked at Huang Jia Long meaningfully with a smile.
"Brother Duan, you … you know about this as well?"
Huang Jia Long rubbed his nose awkwardly. He had never expected that the young genius, whom he had been thoroughly convinced of, would know about this.
"Brother Duan, you must be joking … Apart from pursuing strength, I, Huang Jia Long, only have one hobby — women."
Huang Jia Long smiled awkwardly. He then added, "But, although I'm a pervert, I'm not a pervert. I've never used my power to bully or force a woman to be with me. My women always do it willingly."
Duan Lingtian, naturally, believed Huang Jia Long's words. Although time would reveal a person's true nature, he had lived two lives, so he was quite good at judging people.
Based on Huang Jia Long's righteous expression, he was not a despicable person.
"If the Young City Governor is that kind of person, do you think I'd let you sit down and chat with you?"
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled.
If Huang Jia Long was that kind of person, Duan Lingtian would not have sat down and chatted with him. In fact, Duan Lingtian would have acted on behalf of the heavens!
Huang Jia Long was an easy-going person. As soon as they sat down, he began to chat with Duan Lingtian.
As for the content of their conversation, it was all over the place.
However, from the beginning until the end, Huang Jia Long did not inquire about Duan Lingtian's background. He acted as though he was a long-time friend who was chatting with Duan Lingtian.
Huang Jia Long was a good conversationalist. He chatted with Duan Lingtian until evening.
During this time, Duan Lingtian learned a lot from Huang Jia Long.
"As it turns out, there's a detailed ranking system for the major forces in the Southern Heaven Territory.
For example, the top sects in the borderlands of the Southern Heaven Territory are classified as grade-nine sects.
On the other hand, the Supporting Fall Nation, which is located at the border of the central area of the Southern Heaven Territory, is classified as a grade-eight Celestial Kingdom.
There are many grade-nine sects and clans in the Supporting Fall Nation. For example, the He Clan is a grade-nine clan. Also, Huang Jia Long's family is considered a ninth-rank family. "
After coming out of the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm alive, the Three Sects and Two Clans that Huang Jia Long joined are all grade-seven sects and clans.
"Seventh Rank Sects and Seventh Rank Clans are all forces that possess High Grade Celestial Crystal Veins. High Grade Celestial Crystal Veins can even produce Supreme Grade Celestial Crystals."
Apart from that, the Three Sects and Two Clans have a close relationship with the Profound Nether Mansion. In fact, they're indirectly subordinate to the Profound Nether Mansion.
I'm currently in an area governed by the Profound Nether Mansion in the Southern Heaven Territory.
The Profound Nether Mansion is also related to one of the Ten Major Clans in the Southern Heaven Territory. The Profound Nether Mansion is also a grade-six Celestial Mansion! "
…
After chatting for an entire afternoon, Duan Lingtian learned a lot from Huang Jia Long. Apart from that, he also learned that the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm would open in six months.
"Initially, I was close to becoming a One Basic Celestial Duke. However, in order to find a fortuitous encounter in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, I decided to focus on comprehending my Divine Abilities instead of cultivating."
Since Huang Jia Long had yet to master his assist-type Divine Abilities, there was still room for improvement before he entered the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.
The highest cultivation base allowed to enter the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm was a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
Those who were Celestial Dukes or stronger would be barred from entering the lower realm by the Formation at the entrance.
"Brother Duan, it's dark now. Let me send all of you back … We'll talk another time."
When night fell, Huang Jia Long finally shut his mouth.
"It's alright. We'll go back by ourselves."
Duan Lingtian wanted to decline Huang Jia Long's offer, but he could not resist Huang Jia Long's enthusiasm. In the end, he could only follow Huang Jia Long and the others back to the Imperial Palace.
When Duan Lingtian and the others were still a distance away from the Imperial Palace, they entered a deserted street.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two swift sounds of wind flashed out from the shadows without any sign. They were like two cheetahs that cut off Duan Ling Tian's group of three's path of advance and retreat in the blink of an eye.
"Hm?"
Duan Lingtian frowned as he looked at the middle-aged man who was blocking his path.
At this moment, the middle-aged man was looking at him with eyes filled with bone-deep hatred. It was as if there was some kind of deep hatred between them.
"Duan Lingtian, you killed my son! Today, I'll make you pay with your life!"
The middle-aged man sneered as he glared at Duan Lingtian. His voice was so cold that it made one feel as though one had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Me? Killed your son? "
Duan Lingtian was taken aback.
"Eleven days ago, outside the capital."
The middle-aged man sneered.
Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, realization dawned on Duan Lingtian. "So, you're the father of that ugly and twisted man."
"It seems like he left some clues behind in the Communication Celestial Talisman before he died. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to find me."
Duan Lingtian looked at the middle-aged man calmly. Unknowingly, a hairpin had appeared in his hand.
The hairpin was shrouded in a mysterious light, and the two flowers at the end of the hairpin were shrouded in a crimson light.
However, due to Duan Ling Tian's tight grip on the hairpin, the others did not notice it at all.
The hairpin was the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon that Duan Lingtian had obtained in the borderlands.
After using it once, the Celestial Weapon could be used two more times.
Although Duan Lingtian did not know the cultivation bases of the middle-aged man and the middle-aged man behind him, he was certain both of them were stronger than Liu Guang Lin, the strongest among the three of them.
Liu Guang Lin was only a One Basic Celestial Duke. Naturally, his speed was not as fast as the two middle-aged men.
For this reason, Duan Lingtian decided to use the hairpin since he felt threatened.
"You're seeking death!"
The middle-aged man was enraged when he heard Duan Ling Tian had killed his son, and he even dared to say his son was ugly and had a twisted mind. His Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body like flames.
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking and was about to make a move, Duan Lingtian was about to use the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon again.
At this moment, a cold voice rang in the air.
