"Assassins from the Blood Skull Gang? Moreover, there are three of them? "
The patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan frowned when he heard the mansion master's words. "Mansion Master Zhong, why did you allow the assassins from the Blood Skull Gang to ambush the Profound Nether Mansion?"
"They didn't do anything, so it's not appropriate for us to act recklessly. After all, the Blood Skull Gang is one of the top assassin organizations in the Southern Heaven Territory. “
The patriarch of the Profound Nether Mansion said.
"They're here for Duan Lingtian?"
The patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan asked. "Although I rarely leave the Phantom Fox Clan, I've heard of Duan Lingtian's name. Rumor has it that he has become a Ten Directions Celestial Duke before the age of 100. Moreover, he has comprehended all the profundities from the law of space and has even comprehended the law of space's Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity to the initial stage."
"Patriarch Zhang, it seems like you know a lot about Duan Lingtian. However, it seems like you're behind the times. He's no longer a Ten Directions Celestial Duke; he has become a Celestial King. "
The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion said with a smile.
"A breakthrough?"
The patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan was shocked. Then, realization dawned on him. "No wonder I haven't heard about him entering the middle realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Initially, I thought he couldn't find a match in the middle realm so he didn't bother to enter.
"Mansion Master Zhong, may I have the honor of meeting him?"
The patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan asked with a glint in his eyes.
Although the two men from the Phantom Fox Clan had died outside the Profound Nether Mansion's estate, they had said they were following a woman who seemed to be a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox.
Moreover, the woman was not even 100 years old, but she was already a Ten Directions Celestial Duke.
However, when the patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan thought about Duan Lingtian in the Profound Nether Mansion, he could not help but wonder if the woman was a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox as well.
After all, the Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox that had appeared in the Phantom Fox Clan a million years ago was a man.
The patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan was unaware that Duan Lingtian had consumed the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit.
"He's currently cultivating in the Imperial Tutor Pavilion. I'll have to ask the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion if he's free."
The mansion master of the Profound Nether Mansion said.
"Imperial Tutor Palace?"
The leader of the Phantom Fox Clan was shocked. "Duan Lingtian is already the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion? However, with his innate talent and comprehension ability, he's indeed qualified to be the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion. "
He had heard about the significance of being the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion.
"Yes, he's currently the Imperial Tutor of the Profound Nether Mansion."
The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion nodded. At the same time, he sent a message to the Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion, Duan Lingtian, asking if he was willing to meet the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan.
The Pavilion Master of the Imperial Tutor Pavilion also asked Duan Ling Tian.
"I'll go."
Duan Lingtian was awakened from his cultivation. He did not expect the leader of the Southern Heaven Territory's Phantom Fox Clan would come to the Profound Nether Mansion after the deaths of the two Phantom Foxes.
Moreover, the Clan Leader of the Southern Heaven Territory wanted to kill him.
'The reason he wants to see me isn't because I'm involved in the deaths of the two Phantom Foxes. It must be because of something else.'
Duan Lingtian decided to meet the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan. After all, the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan was a potential threat to him.
Perhaps, the day would come when the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan would oppose him.
Now that he had the chance to meet the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan, he could use this opportunity to test the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan.
Under the guidance of an elder from the Profound Nether Mansion, Duan Lingtian arrived at the place where the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion was entertaining the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan.
"Mansion Master."
As Duan Lingtian greeted the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion, he saw three people sitting at the side.
Among the three people, only one of them was seated. He was a young man with white hair and eyebrows.
Two old men stood behind him, one on his left and one on his right. They looked like two competent bodyguards.
"Duan Ling Tian, this is Clan Leader Zhang from the Phantom Fox Clan. He's heard about you a long time ago. He came to the Profound Nether Mansion to meet you because he's curious about you."
The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion smiled.
"Clan Leader Zhang."
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian turned to look at the patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan and greeted the patriarch.
At the same time, the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion sent a Voice Transmission to Duan Lingtian. "Duan Lingtian, a fox is cunning. Since Zhang Dong Nan, the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan, wants to see you, it's not a spur of the moment decision.
"Duan Lingtian, I've long heard of you. Now that I've met you, I can see you live up to your reputation. As expected of a prodigy among humans!"
Zhang Dong Nan said with a sigh as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
As soon as he saw Duan Lingtian, he was certain Duan Lingtian was not a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox. After all, he did not sense the aura of a Duan Lingtian from the Phantom Fox Clan. Therefore, he did not suspect Duan Lingtian.
If a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox was a Ten Directions Celestial Duke, it would be difficult for him to confirm Duan Lingtian's identity with his cultivation base. Therefore, he could only suspect Duan Lingtian's identity.
The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion had warned Duan Lingtian because he was worried Zhang Dong Nan would lead Duan Lingtian by the nose and try to pry information out of him.
However, he did not expect Zhang Dongnan would only chat with Duan Ling Tian after meeting him. He did not have any intention of trying to get information out of him at all.
Duan Lingtian was puzzled.
On the other hand, Duan Lingtian was puzzled as well. It seemed like Zhang Dong Nan only wanted to get to know him.
After chatting with Duan Lingtian for about half an hour, Zhang Dong Nan suddenly recalled something. He looked at the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion and asked, "Mansion Master Zhong, did anyone join the Profound Nether Mansion recently? For example, a young woman who's not even 100 years old and wears a veil, a bamboo hat, and a white robe. "
"The only person who joined the Profound Nether Mansion recently is Duan Lingtian," the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion said.
The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion said, "Clan Leader Zhang, I'm sure you've heard that the Profound Nether Mansion only accepts disciples at certain times. Apart from monstrous geniuses like Duan Ling Tian, the Profound Nether Mansion won't accept disciples."
"Alright."
Zhang Dong Nan nodded. Then, he rose to his feet and bade farewell to the Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion and Duan Lingtian.
"Duan Lingtian, if you have time, you can visit the Phantom Fox Clan. There are many beauties in the Phantom Fox Clan. Who knows, you might find your Celestial Companion there."
Zhang Dong Nan said to Duan Lingtian meaningfully before he left.
The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion sneered when he heard Zhang Dong Nan's words. He knew Zhang Dong Nan intended to use the women from the Phantom Fox Clan to bind Duan Ling Tian to the Phantom Fox Clan.
However, he was not worried Duan Lingtian would fall for his trick.
This was because his grand-ancestor had told him through Voice Transmission that the woman whom his grand-ancestor had killed was extremely beautiful. It would be difficult to find another woman who could compare to her in this world.
His grandmaster had lived for more than 30,000 years and had seen countless women. Based on his grandmaster's words, it was not difficult for him to imagine that the woman by Duan Lingtian's side was a peerless beauty.
"You must be joking, Clan Leader Zhang. I, Duan Lingtian, am married. I even have a son and a daughter, but I don't dare to fool around outside."
Duan Lingtian said with a smile on his face.
"Which capable man doesn't have multiple wives and concubines? Take me for example. I just recently took in my 16th concubine. "
Zhang Dong Nan gave Duan Lingtian a knowing look before he left with the two men behind him.
"Duan Lingtian, remember what I said … Come visit the Phantom Fox Clan when you're free."
Before Zhang Dong Nan left, he did not forget to remind Duan Lingtian through Voice Transmission. Upon seeing this, Duan Lingtian could not help but smile wryly.
Why was the Clan Leader of the Phantom Fox Clan acting like a matchmaker?
"Duan Lingtian, Zhang Dong Nan is here for the two dead members of the Phantom Fox Clan. I'm curious, who's the woman by your side?"
The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion asked curiously as he looked at Duan Lingtian.
"Mansion Master."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and said, "Due to some reasons, I can't reveal her identity to you. Please forgive me."
The fact that she was a Thousand Phantoms Ice Fox was related to her safety so it was best if fewer people knew about it.
…
Outside the Profound Nether Mansion.
After Zhang Dong Nan left the Profound Nether Mansion with the two old men, he was in no hurry to return to the Phantom Fox Clan.
"The Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion said there are three assassins from the Blood Skull Gang waiting outside the Profound Nether Mansion … Perhaps, they have seen Zhang Qi Yu and Zhang Lizhong."
Zhang Dong Nan's eyes glinted as he said to the two old men behind him, "Let's split up and find those three assassins!"
"Yes, Lord Clan Leader."
The two old men nodded and left.
Zhang Dong Nan was the Patriarch of the Phantom Fox Clan, a Celestial Lord. The two old men he brought with him this time were also outstanding Ten Directions Celestial Kings. Both of them had comprehended profundities to the initial mastery stage.
Even in the upper realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, these two old men were well-known figures.
About 15 minutes later …
Zhang Dong Nan received news that one of the two old men had discovered the three assassins from the Blood Skull Gang.
North of the Profound Nether Mansion's estate, a man and three men were facing each other on a lofty mountain.
The three men were dressed in black, and they were led by a middle-aged man with a cold expression on his face.
However, at this moment, this middle-aged man with a grave and stern face was looking at the old man in front of him with deep fear in his eyes.
"Situ Yu, I didn't expect you to come personally … It seems like your target this time isn't as simple as it seems."
The old man looked at the middle-aged man with a surprised expression on his face.
Based on the middle-aged man's words, it was obvious he was an old acquaintance of the middle-aged man.
"Zhang Zhen Hai, why are you here?"
The middle-aged man, Situ Yu, asked in a deep voice.
"Zhang Zhen Hai?"
Upon hearing Situ Yu's words, the eyes of the two men standing behind him widened in shock.
If Duan Lingtian were here, he would recognize the two men standing behind Situ Yu as the two assassins from the Blood Skull Gang who had chased after him in the Jade Emperor Heaven.
