"Don't worry, father. I'm not that stupid."
Qian Fei shook his head with a smile.
"Don't go out during this period of time if you can."
Qian Yuejin glared at Qian Fei. "Don't you know how far behind your elder brother is in your cultivation base? If you continue like this, you won't have the heart to be the Clan Leader. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for you to become an elder of the Qian Clan. "
Qian Fei's elder brother, Qian Teng, the First Young Master of the Qian Clan, was the next Clan Leader of the Qian Clan.
Unlike Qian Fei's arrogance, Qian Teng was a cultivation maniac. Although he was not even 3,000 years old, he was already a Nine Palaces Celestial Emperor. He was only half a step away from becoming a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor.
He could break through to become a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor and become a Demigod at any time!
"With elder brother around, father, are you afraid that I won't be able to become an elder?"
Qian Fei said nonchalantly.
Qian Yuejin was infuriated when he saw his second son's lack of improvement. He cursed, "You're such a spineless brat. Get lost!"
"Hehe …"
However, Qian Fei seemed to be used to it. He did not mind and chuckled as he left.
The sternness in Qian Yuejin's eyes disappeared when he saw his second son leaving. It was replaced by a doting expression. He had two sons. Although his eldest son was talented and would become the Clan Leader of the Qian Clan in the future, he was too old-fashioned and reserved. He was not as sweet as his second son.
Of his two sons, his eldest son, Qian Teng, made him proud. However, he still doted on his second son, Qian Fei.
'I called my second son over to give him a warning. Perhaps it's because the Heaven Illumination Sect's disciple also has the surname Duan.'
Qian Yuejin thought to himself after Qian Fei left.
In fact, even if he did not warn his second son, he knew his second son would not easily offend the Heaven Illumination Sect's disciple. This was one of the reasons why he allowed his second son to do whatever he wanted.
His second son's judgment was average, but the lesser deity next to him had very good judgment. As a result, his second son had never provoked anyone he shouldn't have all these years.
He was not worried about this.
The reason why he called his second son, Qian Fei, over today was because Qian Fei had recently annihilated a branch of a village in the Endless Mountain. The people in that village had the same surname as the Heaven Illumination Sect's disciple.
"After all, the Heavenly Illumination Sect's reputation is too great … It's making me worry for nothing."
Qian Yuejin shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
…
After the Meng Clan's only Divine Alchemist, Meng Qi You, returned to the Meng Clan's estate from the Waterstop Pavilion, he learned that a Heavenly Illumination Sect disciple had appeared in Mountain Overlook City.
Even the other two great sects in Mountain Overlook City, the Morning Cloud Sect and the Celestial Sect, knew that a Heavenly Illumination Sect disciple had come to Mountain Overlook City.
Although the Heavenly Illumination Sect was far away from them, it would only be beneficial for them to be on good terms with the World Margin Sect's disciples.
Including the Qian Clan and the Meng Clan, the four major powers of Mountain Overlook City had sent people to keep an eye on the Carefree Inn.
As soon as the Heavenly Illumination Sect's disciple came out of his closed-door cultivation, they would send him an invitation to build a good relationship with him. When he grew stronger in the future, they might be able to rely on this relationship to reach a higher level.
In the Realms of Gods, no matter if it was a clan or a sect, as long as there was a chance to advance, they would not miss it.
In fact, many of the older generation experts who walked out of their clans would choose to join a powerful force as a servant or slave because they realized that it would be difficult for them to improve their strength.
However, it would be difficult for them to borrow the other party's influence if they became a servant or slave to a powerful force.
Of course, Duan Lingtian was unaware of all this.
Currently, Duan Lingtian was wholeheartedly immersed in cultivating and digesting the medicinal efficacy of the Divine Transcendence Pill in his body. At the same time, he felt that the final bottleneck to Godhood was loosening.
Just a little more and he would be able to successfully become a God.
However, it was this step that made Duan Lingtian patiently charge forward again and again.
…
Time quietly passed.
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
Outside Mountain Overlook City, an aged figure stepped through the air and arrived.
It was an old man dressed in a long gray robe. He was skinny, had an aged face, and had white hair and white brows. His eyes were filled with nostalgia as he stared at Mountain Overlook City that was getting closer and closer.
"I haven't been back for a long time."
"The last time I left … it seems to have been ten thousand years, right?"
The old man muttered to himself. Then, he walked towards a mansion in Mountain Overlook City.
That mansion was the Qian Clan's mansion.
At this very moment, the Qian Clan's mansion wasn't peaceful.
Duan Lingtian, the person that the four major forces of Mountain Overlook City wanted nothing more than to curry favor with, had ignored the invitation of the four major forces stationed at the Carefree Inn and directly arrived at the entrance of the Qian Clan's mansion.
The people from the four major forces who had been ordered to invite him followed behind him. They looked at his back in bewilderment, not knowing why he had come to the Qian Clan's mansion without a word.
However, before they could recover from their shock, they saw him flying into the Qian Clan's mansion.
Then, an indifferent voice resounded throughout the Qian Clan's mansion and into their ears.
"Qian Fei, get out here!"
This voice caused the people from the Qian Clan who had followed Duan Lingtian here to be completely dumbfounded. "How did the Second Young Master provoke this malefic star?"
"Didn't this malefic star enter the Carefree Inn to cultivate in seclusion after purchasing the Divine Transcendence Pills and only come out today?"
This person from the Qian Clan was an elder of the Qian Clan. He had been ordered by the Patriarch of the Qian Clan, Qian Yuejin, to guard the Carefree Inn and wait for the Heaven Illumination Sect's disciple, Duan Lingtian, to come out of seclusion so that he could invite Duan Lingtian to the Qian Clan as a guest.
However, he didn't expect that Duan Lingtian would ignore him and the people from the other three major forces and directly come to the Qian Clan's mansion.
Following that, this was what happened.
"Qian Fei?"
"Isn't that the Second Young Master of the Qian Clan?"
"The Second Young Master of the Qian Clan, Qian Fei, offended this person?"
…
Unlike the people from the Qian Clan who were dumbfounded, the eyes of the people from the other three major forces who came to invite Duan Lingtian lit up when they heard Duan Lingtian's voice.
When the three of them looked at the people from the Qian Clan who were not far away, their eyes were filled with schadenfreude. "Qian Huan, the Second Young Master of your Qian Clan is really powerful. He even dares to offend a Heaven Illumination Sect's outstanding disciple."
"This time, I'm afraid your Qian Clan will have to abandon that good-for-nothing Young Master."
"It's the father's fault for not teaching his son well … The Patriarch of the Qian Clan is responsible for this matter as well."
…
Faced with the three people's schadenfreude, the Qian Clan's elder, Qian Huan, stepped into the air with a gloomy expression and approached Duan Lingtian. He wanted to ask Duan Lingtian how the Second Young Master of the Qian Clan, Qian Fei, had offended him.
However, before he did, many people from the Qian Clan's mansion had already stepped into the air.
The person in the lead was the Patriarch of the Qian Clan, Qian Yuejin.
"Young Master Duan?"
Earlier, Qian Yuejin felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, but he could not recall where he had heard it before. Now that he had stepped into the air and approached, he recognized the other party with a single glance.
It was the Heaven Illumination Sect's disciple who had exchanged 3,000 Divine Stones at the Rejuvenation House under the Qian Clan, Duan Lingtian.
However, at that time, he had appeared as the Grand Elder of the Qian Clan, Qian He.
Perhaps, the other party still thought that he was the Grand Elder of the Qian Clan, Qian He.
"Should I address you as Grand Elder Qian He or Patriarch Qian Yuejin?"
Duan Lingtian looked deeply at Qian Yuejin and asked indifferently.
His question instantly caused Qian Yuejin's expression to change slightly. "You … You already know?"
"When you first appeared, I already knew."
Duan Ling Tian said indifferently, "Now that you mention it, even though I hadn't been in Mountain Overlook City for long, I'd heard many people mention you, Patriarch Qian, and your Grand Elder, Qian He."
"Your appearance doesn't match the Grand Elder of the Qian Clan, Qian He, but you're no different from the Patriarch of the Qian Clan, Qian Yuejin.
If I'm not mistaken, the person behind you is the Grand Elder of the Qian Clan, Qian He, right? "
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Lingtian's gaze landed on an old man behind Qian Yuejin. This old man stood at the front of the group and followed closely behind Qian Yuejin.
He was the Grand Elder of the Qian Clan, Qian He. He was also the other Lesser Divine Spirit of the Qian Clan.
"Patriarch."
At this moment, Qian Huan, the Qian Clan's elder who had followed Duan Lingtian here, communicated with Qian Yuejin through Voice Transmission and informed him that Duan Lingtian had come looking for them as soon as he came out of closed-door cultivation.
"He came looking for us as soon as he came out of closed-door cultivation?"
Qian Yuejin narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard Qian Huan's Voice Transmission.
As far as he knew, Duan Lingtian, the Heaven Illumination Sect's disciple, had returned to the Carefree Inn to cultivate in seclusion after purchasing the Divine Connection Pills from the Meng Clan and consuming them.
During this process, Qian Huan whom he had sent out had been keeping an eye on Duan Lingtian. It was impossible for him not to know if Duan Lingtian had come out of closed-door cultivation.
'In other words … My Second Brother offended him before I met him?'
When Qian Yuejin thought of this and recalled Duan Lingtian's unfriendly tone, he felt his scalp go numb. He did not expect his son to have offended Duan Lingtian so early on.
Perhaps his son had not realized Duan Lingtian's identity at that time?
"Young Master Duan."
Qian Yuejin forced a smile on his face. "May I know how my unfilial son offended you?"
Duan Lingtian glanced at Qian Yuejin nonchalantly. "Patriarch Qian, regarding this matter … I think it's better for Qian Fei to tell you personally."
Qian Fei!
When Duan Lingtian mentioned Qian Fei again, everyone in the Qian Clan snapped out of their daze. They looked around but did not see Qian Fei. "Where's the Second Young Master?"
Many of the Qian Clan members who rose into the air and surrounded Qian Yuejin were frowning.
Qian Fei had caused trouble and offended someone from the Heaven Illumination Sect, a God Emperor force. Why was he hiding now? Did Qian Fei want to drag the entire Qian Clan down with him?
Most of them were filled with resentment.
"Uncle Qian Qiu, bring Qian Fei here."
Qian Yuejin took a deep breath when he sensed the resentment from many of his clansmen. Then, he sent a message to the Lower Rank Deity next to Qian Fei. This Lower Rank Deity was also an elder of his lineage.
Naturally, Qian Qiu was no match for him in terms of strength.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
While Qian Yuejin was sending a message to Qian Qiu, a few figures flew toward the Qian Clan's mansion from three different directions.
