After kicking the Megrez Peak disciple flying, Duan Lingtian's figure flashed out to follow up.
When the Megrez Peak disciple wanted to crawl up, Duan Lingtian raised his leg and fiercely descended onto the Megrez Peak disciple's chest, stomping him back down.
Bang!
The Megrez Peak disciple's body once again fell onto the ground, and he was shaken to the point his face went ghastly pale, and his eyes that looked at Duan Lingtian were filled with fear and terror.
"Who sent you here?"
Duan Lingtian's tone was still calm, but his gaze that became even more icy cold undoubtedly told this Megrez Peak disciple that he already didn't have much patience.
"No one really sent me here … Really!"
The Megrez Peak disciple's gaze squinted, and he hesitated for a moment, seeming to have some misgivings as he spoke with a panicked expression.
"Very good."
When he saw the Megrez Peak disciple still being stubborn at a time like this, Duan Lingtian's gaze went slightly cold, and with a raise of his hand, a three foot long blade appeared out of thin air in his hand, and it flickered with an icy cold light.
"No … Don't …"
The Megrez Peak disciple's pupils constricted and his face went pale when he saw Duan Lingtian withdraw his sword.
"I'll give you ten breaths of time to consider … After ten breaths of time, if you still don't speak, then I'll kill you with a single strike! You ought to know that even though the Seven Star Sword Sect has a prohibition that fellow disciples aren't allowed to kill each other under the life and death arena, but so long as no one sees me kill you, I'll be fine. "
Duan Lingtian weighed the three foot long blade in his hand, then lightly extended his other hand to stroke the blade of the blade, as if he was gently stroking his lover.
Duan Lingtian's words that didn't contain the slightest emotion entered into the ears of the Megrez Peak disciple, causing his face to go pale, and traces of terror were mixed within his eyes.
He naturally knew that what Duan Lingtian said was true!
If he really died here, then with the remoteness of this place, even if someone discovered his corpse, it would probably be a matter of many days later.
At that time, no matter how deep the Seven Star Sword Sect's resources and reserves were, and no matter how formidable the strength of the sect higher-ups was, it would be impossible to find out who killed him.
Therefore, even if he were to be killed by Duan Lingtian here today, it would be a meaningless death!
"Five more breaths of time."
Duan Lingtian's gaze descended onto the panicked eyes of the Megrez Peak disciple, and a wisp of a bloodthirsty coldness appeared on the corners of his mouth. The sword in his hand cooperated with the Megrez Peak disciple to form a sword flower that was dazzling and gorgeous.
"Three more breaths of time."
After two breaths, Duan Lingtian's voice turned even colder.
The sword in his hand was raised slightly, as if he was ready to strike at any moment …
"I'll talk! I'll talk! "
Finally, this Megrez Peak disciple was unable to endure the pressure Duan Lingtian brought to his mind, and he spoke with a terrified expression. His tone was incomparably flustered, as he was deeply afraid that if he was too late, Duan Lingtian's sword would mercilessly descend.
"Speak."
Duan Lingtian looked at the Megrez Peak disciple and said coldly, "If I discover that you're lying, then don't blame my sword for being merciless."
"I don't dare … I don't dare … I absolutely don't dare lie!"
The Megrez Peak disciple was frightened to the point he spoke without thinking, and after he caught his breath, he continued. "It was Elder Zhao Lin who asked me to monitor your whereabouts. So long as I see you appear, I have to report to him at the first possible moment. Besides that, he also said that if I'm able to find out where you cultivate, then he'll bestow me an additional 10,000 gold. "
Zhao Lin?
Duan Lingtian's face sank.
He never imagined that it was that Zhao Lin's doing again!
That Zhao Lin, for the sake of a nonexistent cultivation technique that he made up, sent people to deal with him one after another, but in the end, they all went for wool and came home shorn …
Now, Zhao Lin actually still hadn't given up!
"Duan Lingtian, I've already said what you want to know, let me go …"
The Megrez Peak disciple looked at Duan Lingtian who had an indeterminate expression and was slightly panicked, as he was deeply afraid that Duan Lingtian would go back on his word.
Duan Lingtian raised his leg and swept the Megrez Peak disciple with a cold and indifferent gaze. "You better not tell what happened today to that Zhao Lin. Otherwise … "
"I won't, I surely won't."
The Megrez Peak disciple vowed solemnly.
"Fuck off."
Duan Lingtian's tone was calm as he spoke with a cold and indifferent tone.
"Yes, yes."
The Megrez Peak disciple hurriedly nodded, then crawled up and fled in a sorry state, and before long, he'd vanished before Duan Lingtian's eyes.
When he saw the Megrez Peak disciple leave, Duan Lingtian shuttled back and forth on the mountain path before finally ascending the peak and returning to the stalactite cave.
As he sat cross-legged on the stone platform, Duan Lingtian's gaze was cold and indifferent. "That Zhao Lin actually still hasn't given up on the thought of seizing my cultivation technique … Now that I've revealed a strength that's able to annihilate a sixth level Origin Core Stage martial artist, even a sixth level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple ought to not dare help him. Looks like he's prepared to investigate my whereabouts, then make a move himself. "
Duan Lingtian guessed Zhao Lin's intentions.
At the same time, he had a slight lingering fear in his heart.
Fortunately, there was that Megrez Peak disciple today, otherwise, he wouldn't even know that Zhao Lin was still watching him.
He could imagine that under the circumstances where he wasn't on guard at all, if he was secretly followed by Zhao Lin, then once he entered a place without people, it would surely be difficult for him to escape death.
He believed that when faced with the temptation of the nonexistent cultivation technique, the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll, Zhao Lin would undoubtedly ruthlessly kill him!
"But unfortunately, Xiong Quan isn't by my side … The strongest ability in my possession, the Blaze Inscription, is also unable to deal with him."
Taking a deep breath, Duan Lingtian's face sank slightly. "Looks like I have to be careful when walking within the Seven Star Sword Sect in the future … Otherwise, once that Zhao Lin finds an opportunity, I'll surely die!"
With a heavy heart, Duan Lingtian withdrew an Origin Strengthening Pill and consumed it, then he closed his eyes and started cultivating.
Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Wyrm Python Form!
Duan Lingtian knew deeply.
Only when his own strength was sufficiently strong would he be the true king!
If he was a Void Prying Stage martial artist now, why would he need to be afraid of Zhao Lin?
Cultivate! Cultivate!
The hot blood within Duan Lingtian's body completely boiled, and the Origin Energy within his body started to violently roil as well.
His cultivation was increasing at an extremely swift speed.
If he continued cultivating at this speed, he believed that his cultivation would be able to smoothly break through to the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage before long.
Megrez Peak, within the gorge that was filled with light.
"What? He's appeared?"
Zhao Lin asked indifferently as he looked at the Megrez Peak disciple that hastily entered.
"Yes, Elder Zhao Lin, he returned from Dubhe Peak."
The Megrez Peak disciple hurriedly nodded.
"What? You didn't follow him? If you're able to find out where he cultivates, I'll bestow you 10,000 gold. "
Zhao Lin glanced deeply at the Megrez Peak disciple, seeming to be tempting him.
10,000 gold?
The Megrez Peak disciple couldn't help but curse in his heart when he heard Zhao Lin.
It's because of your 10,000 gold that you almost caused me to lose my life! Luckily that Duan Lingtian didn't pursue the matter, otherwise, I would have been killed by you.
However, this Megrez Peak disciple had a calm expression on the surface, and laughed bitterly. "Elder Zhao Lin, I want your 10,000 gold as well … But, I'm utterly unable to keep up with him."
Zhao Lin nodded and didn't find it strange.
As far as he was concerned, even he had once been left behind when following Duan Lingtian, let alone this third level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple.
"Are you sure he returned to Megrez Peak?"
Zhao Lin asked to confirm further.
"I'm sure."
The Megrez Peak disciple hurriedly nodded and said with certainty.
"Continue watching him for me … If he leaves Megrez Peak at any time, report to me right away! This is what you deserve. "
Zhao Lin nodded, then with a raise of his hand, he passed a 1,000 gold bill to the Megrez Peak disciple.
"Thank you, Elder Zhao Lin."
The Megrez Peak disciple hurriedly expressed his thanks, and didn't dare mention a single word about Duan Lingtian stopping him.
Because he knew that once he mentioned it, not only would he offend Duan Lingtian, he wouldn't even be able to obtain this gold bill.
"Do things properly for me in the future, I won't treat you unfairly."
Zhao Lin nodded and waved his hand. "You can go."
"Yes."
The Megrez Peak disciple hurriedly left, then secretly wiped off his cold sweat and heaved a sigh of relief.
There were two great clans in Black Bamboo City, and they kept each other in check, controlling a third of the businesses in Black Bamboo City …
As for the other two-thirds of the businesses, it was instead controlled in the hands of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
The Shi Clan was one of the two great clans in Black Bamboo City.
Outside the Shi Clan Estate, a figure that was like the wind flashed over swiftly, desiring to charge into the Shi Clan Estate.
"Who is it?!"
The faces of the two guards at the Shi Clan Estate's entrance went grim, and they hurriedly stopped the figure.
Bang! Bang!
Two loud bangs sounded out as the two guards were kicked flying, and they collided with the entrance.
Right when they stood up in panic and intended to call for help, they inadvertently clearly saw the face of the young man that stood at the entrance with a cold expression, and the panic and rage on their faces vanished without a trace, and replacing it was respect.
"Eldest Young Master!"
The two guards bowed and called out respectfully.
"Both of you are rather competent, even daring to obstruct this Young Master."
The young man's features were warped and savage, and his pair of triangular eyes emitted traces of a gloomy aura.
If Duan Lingtian was here, he would surely be able to recognize him with a glance.
This young man was precisely the young man that dashed like the wind he encountered on the mountain path of Dubhe Peak when he returned to the Seven Star Sword Sect from the primeval forest.
"Eldest Young Master, spare us, we didn't know it was you."
The two guards hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy in panic, and their faces were filled with perturbation, as if this young man was a scourge.
"Alright, I can't be bothered to fuss about it with both of you today … Let me ask both of you, has the Young Miss returned? After I returned to the Seven Star Sword Sect, I didn't see her, and the gorge she usually cultivates in has been empty for a long time. Even the limestone tablet outside the gorge has been shattered by someone. "
As he finished speaking, the young man frowned and was faintly slightly worried.
Unexpectedly, the two guards had bitter smiles on their faces when they heard the young man.
"Did something happen to the Young Miss? Speak! "
The young man's face went grim, and a bad premonition arose within his heart.
"Eldest Young Master, the Young Miss … Her Dantian was crippled by someone!"
One of the guards laughed bitterly.
"What?!"
