"Sir … Who exactly are you?"
Xia Dou took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Shou Yong as he asked.
Subsequently, he suppressed the terror in his heart and slowly said, "Perhaps, the clan or sect you're from has some relationship with our Jade Magnolia Trading Company."
His words had an additional intention of admitting defeat.
"Jade Magnolia Trading Company?"
The corners of Zhang Shou Yong's mouth curled into a wisp of disdain as he said indifferently, "Sorry, I've never heard of it."
Never heard of it?
Xia Dou's face instantly flushed red as if someone had choked him.
He naturally thought that Zhang Shou Yong said this intentionally.
Although the Jade Magnolia Trading Company couldn't be considered to be the top trading company in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, it was renowned far and wide …
Duan Lingtian wasn't surprised.
According to his knowledge, although Zhang Shou Yong had stayed in the Ancient City of Everlast for a few years, besides having some understanding of the seven great sects of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, Zhang Shou Yong hadn't paid attention to the other powers.
Suddenly.
Whoosh!
In the sky above Zhang Shou Yong, three ancient horned dragon silhouettes appeared once more, spiraling down as they bared their fangs and brandished their claws, and they brought an extremely oppressive feeling to others.
Xia Dou's face went ghastly pale when he saw this scene, and his eyes emitted terror.
"Since you said repeatedly that you want to kill my brother … Then I'll send you on your way first, and remove any worries for my brother."
Zhang Shou Yong spoke word by word, and every word he spat out seemed to have transformed into a heavy hammer that smashed onto Xia Dou's chest, causing Xia Dou's face to go even more ghastly pale.
In the end, it completely shattered Xia Dou's will.
Thump!
Xia Dou's body crashed down and actually knelt on the ground, then he lowered his noble head and said with a slightly trembling voice, "Sir, spare me! I was only joking earlier … That unfilial son of mine actually dared offend Sir, your brother. He deserves to die a hundred times! Sir, it's I who didn't teach my son well, it's I who didn't teach my son well! "
The current Xia Dou didn't have the arrogance of a sixth level Void Prying Stage martial artist as the Vice President of the Jade Magnolia Trading Company …
The current him was like a dog that wagged its tail and begged for mercy.
Before death, he'd completely abandoned his dignity.
Just for the sake of surviving.
"Vice President Xia Dou, you didn't say that earlier?"
A wisp of a ridiculing smile appeared on the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth, and he looked down upon Xia Dou from the bottom of his heart.
A dignified sixth level Void Prying Stage martial artist, the Vice President of the Jade Magnolia Trading Company, for the sake of survival, had given up the dignity a martial artist ought to possess as a person …
Such a person was pathetic.
"Brother Duan, I was just joking with you, just joking with you … Really, really!"
When Xia Dou heard Duan Lingtian's words, he suppressed the flames of rage that were on the verge of bursting out from the depths of his heart and spoke hurriedly.
"Joking?"
Duan Lingtian's gaze was slightly cold. Soon after, he strangely smiled, "Since Vice President Xia Dou likes to joke so much …. Big Brother Zhang, I think you can joke with Vice President Xia Dou. I think Vice President Xia Dou won't mind. Vice President Xia Dou, right? "
"Yes, yes."
Xia Dou hurriedly nodded. At this moment, how could he dare say no?
When Zhang Shouyong heard Duan Lingtian's words, he understood Duan Lingtian's intentions, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up into a smile.
"Vice President Xia Dou, right?"
Zhang Shouyong asked indifferently.
"My Lord, just call me Xia Dou, just call me Xia Dou."
Xia Dou had an expression of panic and lost composure.
"You like to joke, right?"
Zhang Shouyong asked again.
"I do, I do."
Xia Dou hurriedly nodded and didn't dare hesitate.
"Very good."
Zhang Shouyong nodded, then he raised his hand and pressed it down on Xia Dou's head. At the same time that Xia Dou's body shivered, Zhang Shouyong slowly said, "Then I'll joke with you. See if I can make your head explode by slightly urging my Origin Energy …."
Xia Dou was already trembling with fear, and when he heard Zhang Shouyong, he lost his composure and directly fell limp on the ground, then he said with a trembling voice, "Spare me, my Lord, spare me …. I can't take this joke, I can't take it!"
"Hmph!"
Zhang Shouyong's gaze went cold and he lost the intention to continue teasing Xia Dou, and the Origin Energy on his right hand skyrocketed.
"No!"
Xia Dou's gaze was sharp and just happened to see this scene, causing his face to go grim. His limbs pushed off from the ground as his figure shook, and he seemed to have transformed into an eagle that flashed out with the intention of fleeing.
In the sky, 8,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes dashed out along with him.
But, would he be able to flee?
"Want to flee?"
The corners of Zhang Shouyong's mouth curled into a cold smile, and in practically an instant, a layer of earthen yellow light barrier appeared on the surface of his body.
In the sky above him, six ancient horned dragon silhouettes competed to dance as they appeared.
Swoosh!
In the eyes of Duan Lingtian, Zhang Shouyong's entire body had instantly fused into one with the earth and vanished on the spot.
At the same time that Zhang Shouyong who'd utilized his third level Earth Concept vanished before the eyes of Duan Lingtian, he'd appeared over 10 meters away and easily obstructed Xia Dou who intended to flee.
Bang!
Zhang Shouyong's palm descended, his Origin Energy skyrocketed, and the edges of his Origin Energy faintly contained traces of an earthen yellow glow …
Obviously, Zhang Shouyong had utilized his third level Earth Concept in this palm strike.
Bang!
The palm strike that contained the strength of six ancient horned dragons descended onto Xia Dou's chest, and it emitted an enormous bang.
Instantly, Xia Dou followed in the footsteps of the Shi Clan's Patriarch, Shi Li, and his body exploded apart to transform into incomplete corpses that covered the sky and scattered everywhere.
He was deader than dead.
"Shi Yan!"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian heard a delicate shout sound out by his ears, and subsequently, Li Fei who sat before him flashed out.
Only now did Duan Lingtian notice that Shi Yan actually wanted to flee as well.
Swish!
Li Fei's figure flashed out gracefully and caught up to Shi Yan in the blink of an eye, and the three foot long blade in her hand pierced through Shi Yan's back and passed through her body.
Li Fei's gaze was extremely calm when she saw Shi Yan die before her eyes.
Shi Yan deserved death!
The 10 plus people that came menacingly earlier were now scattered all over the place, and all of them were dead.
"I just happened to return that Ferghana Horse to all of you."
Zhang Shou Yong spoke as he pulled over the two Ferghana Horses that were his spoils of the battle, and he and Wang Qiong each sat on one.
Meanwhile, Duan Lingtian and Li Fei rode on the two Ferghana Horses as well.
The four of them headed towards the Seven Star Sword Sect together.
The incident that occurred earlier didn't affect the mood of Duan Lingtian's group of four, and the four of them chatted and laughed all along the way as they rode the Ferghana Horses forward slowly.
But unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. Unknowingly, the four of them had arrived at the foot of the Seven Star Sword Sect's main peak, Dubhe Peak.
Outside the Seven Star Sword Sect.
"Brother Ling Tian, Sister-in-law, we'll meet again someday."
Zhang Shou Yong lightly smiled to Duan Lingtian and Li Fei as he bid his farewells.
"We'll meet again someday."
Duan Lingtian nodded with a smile.
"Big Sister Wang Qiong, if you and Big Brother Zhang are free in the future, you must come see me."
Li Fei looked at Wang Qiong with a reluctant expression.
"Of course."
Wang Qiong lightly nodded, and her eyes contained reluctance mixed within.
Duan Lingtian and Li Fei withdrew their gazes when they saw Zhang Shou Yong and Wang Qiong's figures vanish before them, then they turned their horses around and headed towards the stable behind the sect.
The two of them had only just entered the stable when they saw a young man come over to greet them.
"Senior Brother Duan Lingtian, Senior Sister Li Fei."
It was precisely Mo Yu.
After not seeing him for a year, Mo Yu had matured quite a bit.
"Eh? Mo Yu, you've broken through to the third level of the Origin Core Stage? "
Duan Lingtian glanced at Mo Yu with a surprised expression. "I remember that you were only at the first level of the Origin Core Stage a year ago … How did you improve so quickly?"
"Senior Brother Duan Lingtian … You're able to discern my cultivation?"
Mo Yu was dumbstruck.
Senior Brother Duan Lingtian was covered in dust and had obviously just returned from outside, so it was impossible for him to know his current cultivation beforehand.
In other words, Senior Brother Duan Lingtian was able to discern it.
Duan Lingtian gave Mo Yu a mysterious smile, then descended from the horse and helped Li Fei down, then he said to Mo Yu, "I'll leave our horses to you … Hmm, take this, it's a small token of my appreciation."
As Duan Lingtian spoke, he withdrew a large stack of silver.
An entire 1,000,000 silver was passed over to Mo Yu.
"Senior Brother Duan Lingtian, I can't accept this."
Mo Yu shook his head and laughed foolishly.
Duan Lingtian glanced deeply at Mo Yu, then asked curiously. "Aren't you taking care of the horses here and acting as a coachman for the sake of getting a little more salary? This money is sufficient to cover your salary for many years of working here, why don't you want it? "
Mo Yu rubbed the back of his head. "My mother told me that I have to rely on my own hard work to earn money … I don't accept a reward that's not deserved."
"Take it, just treat it as your salary for helping us take care of the Ferghana horses."
Duan Lingtian continued. Seeing that Mo Yu still didn't accept it, he immediately glared. "If you don't accept it, then you're looking down on me!"
Seeing that Duan Lingtian had spoken to this extent, Mo Yu could only accept it with a face full of gratitude. "Thank you, Senior Brother Duan Lingtian."
"Your talent is not bad, work hard … I hope to see the day when you shine."
Duan Lingtian nodded and smiled at Mo Yu, then he held Li Fei's hand and left the stable, following the mountain path towards Dubhe Peak.
"Senior Brother Duan Lingtian, I definitely won't let you down."
Grasping the silver in his hand, Mo Yu's face was solemn, and his gaze was firm as iron.
"Little Fei 'er, let's go back. I've abducted you for over a year, Elder Bi is surely anxious … You've been on the road for half a day, and you're tired, have a good rest. "
Duan Lingtian sent Li Fei to the side of the chain bridge that led to Alkaid Peak, then helped Li Fei comb her beautiful hair as he spoke gently.
"Okay."
Li Fei nodded meekly, then stepped onto the chain bridge and slowly left.
Duan Lingtian withdrew his gaze when he saw Li Fei's figure vanishing before his eyes.
He didn't return to Megrez Peak, but instead headed towards the peak of Dubhe Peak …
Some things had to be faced sooner or later.
"Liu Shi Ge!"
A wisp of coldness appeared on the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth.
After arriving at the Trade Hall at the peak of Dubhe Peak, Duan Lingtian didn't notice Liu Shi Ge's whereabouts, so he walked towards an inner court disciple and asked. "Senior Brother, do you know where Liu Shi Ge's place of cultivation is?"
This inner court disciple turned around, and his pupils constricted when he saw Duan Lingtian. "Duan Lingtian!"
He obviously recognized Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled.
The inner court disciple took a deep breath. When Duan Lingtian was heavily injured and knocked unconscious by Liu Shi Ge, he was present as well.
Now, after Duan Lingtian vanished without a trace for a year, he took the initiative to look for Liu Shi Ge.
His goal was obvious!
To take revenge on Liu Shi Ge.
