"I really don't think highly of the Sect Leader!"
Duan Lingtian's words were like a thunderclap that abruptly exploded out on the peak of Dubhe Peak, and it entered into the ears of everyone present.
As soon as these words were spoken, the air at the scene seemed to be jerked.
It was deathly silent.
Although there were many people on the peak of Dubhe Peak, all of them held their breaths now, and it was terrifyingly silent, as if the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard.
After a short moment.
High above in the sky, besides the Seven Star Sword Sect's Leader, Linghu Jin Hong, who still had his eyes closed as he stood in midair with a calm expression, and his expression wouldn't change even if Mount Tai collapsed before him.
The remaining Seven Star Sword Sect higher-ups all went pale.
"This kid is too willful!"
The Peak Master of Mizar Peak, Zheng Fan, frowned, and the gaze he looked at Duan Lingtian contained slight worry mixed within.
The beautiful woman's beautiful brows slightly trembled, and her pair of beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Duan Lingtian, as if wanting to discern something from Duan Lingtian.
Elder Bi who stood by the beautiful woman's side had a worried expression.
Never had she imagined that Duan Lingtian's courage would be so great, to actually dare say in public that he didn't think highly of the Sect Leader.
Suddenly.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
…
A wave of gasping sounds rose and fell, and it spread throughout the entire peak of Dubhe Peak.
It was the crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect disciples on Dubhe Peak that had finally recovered from their shock.
"Duan Lingtian has gone mad!"
"Madman! This Duan Lingtian is simply a madman! Saying he doesn't think highly of the Sect Leader in front of the Sect Leader … Isn't he courting death? "
"Hmph! Does he really think that because he possesses extraordinary natural talent in the Martial Dao, the Sect Leader won't blame him? He's simply indulging in fantasy! "
"This Duan Lingtian is surely going to suffer great misfortune today."
…
The group of Seven Star Sword Sect disciples whispered.
At this moment, some of the Seven Star Sword Sect disciples that stood near Duan Lingtian and could see Duan Lingtian looked at Duan Lingtian with gazes as if they were looking at a dead person.
In front of the Seven Star Sword Sect's Sect Leader and all the higher-ups …
Saying that he didn't put the Sect Leader in his eyes?
In the entire Seven Star Sword Sect, probably only this Duan Lingtian was able to say something like this, and only he dared to say it.
Of course, saying such words also meant that he had to pay a great price.
"Bastard!"
"Young Master."
Li Fei and Kerr, who were following behind Duan Lingtian, exclaimed softly. A trace of worry appeared on their beautiful faces.
While they were worried, they also had some doubts.
Logically speaking.
The Duan Lingtian they knew wasn't such an impulsive person …
Zuo Qing stood by Li Fei's side with a dumbstruck expression as well, and her eyes emitted slight worry as she looked at Duan Lingtian's figure.
"Does this Duan Lingtian not want to live anymore?"
Ye Xiao Bei, He Dong, and the other Seven Star Sword Sect disciples that had a good relationship with Duan Lingtian broke out in cold sweat for Duan Lingtian.
Of course, there were also people that took pleasure in Duan Lingtian's misfortune.
For example, Wu Yong Qian and Hu Xue Feng.
"Duan Lingtian, let me see how you deal with this today."
Wu Yong Qian struggled to stand up, then he wiped off the bloodstains on the corners of his mouth and stared coldly at Duan Lingtian.
"This Duan Lingtian actually dares to say that he didn't put the Sect Leader in his eyes in front of the Sect Leader?"
Hu Xue Feng's face revealed a mad smile.
"Presumptuous!"
High above in the sky, Zhao Lin who looked down at Duan Lingtian abruptly shouted out coldly. "Duan Lingtian, you actually dare say that you didn't put the Sect Leader in your eyes? This is great disrespect to the Sect Leader. According to the rules of the Seven Star Sword Sect, you ought to be crippled of your cultivation! "
As Zhao Lin spoke, the Origin Energy on his body roiled.
Above him, 2,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form, and their imposing auras shot into the sky and were on the verge of erupting!
His icy cold eyes stared at Duan Lingtian, and a wisp of coldness appeared on the corners of his mouth.
To him, this was a good opportunity to kill Duan Lingtian!
Right when Zhao Lin was about to make a move.
Duan Lingtian spoke indifferently. "Elder Zhao Lin, you keep saying that I was disrespectful to the Sect Leader … But I wonder when I was disrespectful to the Sect Leader? Please enlighten me, Elder Zhao Lin. "
Duan Lingtian naturally felt the killing intent in Zhao Lin's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile.
This Zhao Lin is really chattering without end!
Duan Lingtian's words caused everyone present to be speechless.
Earlier, this Duan Lingtian had clearly said that he didn't take the Sect Leader seriously …
It's only been a short while, and he's already playing dumb?
Right when most people revealed astounded expressions from Duan Lingtian's words.
High above in the sky, the Seven Star Sword Sect's Leader, Linghu Jin Hong, who'd always had his eyes closed, finally opened his eyes.
At this moment, Linghu Jin Hong looked at Duan Lingtian with interest.
Although he hadn't seen Duan Lingtian, he wasn't unfamiliar with Duan Lingtian.
This rare genius in the Martial Dao of the Seven Star Sword Sect had long since caused his reputation to reverberate like thunder, and he'd always wanted to meet Duan Lingtian.
"What does this little fellow have in mind?"
Linghu Jin Hong looked at the scene before him, and his heart slightly jerked as he was filled with curiosity.
"Hmph!"
Zhao Lin stood in the sky, the Origin Energy on his body was like flames that coiled and suffused his entire body, and he grunted coldly. "Duan Lingtian, as the saying goes, spilled water can't be taken back! Everyone present has heard what you said earlier, it's impossible for you to take it back if you want to. "
Duan Lingtian smiled. "Then I want to ask Elder Zhao Lin, what did I say that caused you to think that I was greatly disrespectful to the Sect Leader?!"
Zhao Lin said in a low voice, "Earlier, you said you didn't take the Sect Leader seriously! Could it be that this isn't greatly disrespectful to the Sect Leader? You still want to deny it? "
"So it's these words."
Duan Lingtian nodded and had an expression of sudden understanding, then he looked at Zhao Lin and asked with a smile. "Elder Zhao Lin, according to what you said, I said I didn't take the Sect Leader seriously, and I was greatly disrespectful?"
"Of course!"
Zhao Lin's brows raised as the Origin Energy in his hand condensed and skyrocketed. "Duan Lingtian, you were greatly disrespectful to the Sect Leader and committed a great taboo of the sect … Today, I'll cripple an arrogant disciple like you on behalf of the sect!"
As Zhao Lin spoke, his figure shook and intended to envelop Duan Lingtian and attack Duan Lingtian.
However.
Instantly, Zhao Lin's face went grim.
He noticed that at this moment, there were two formidable auras stretching over and tightly locking onto him, causing him to not dare make any rash movements.
The Mizar Peak's Master, Zheng Fan.
The Alkaid Peak's Master, Qin Xiang.
He knew clearly in his heart.
Now, with these two people protecting Duan Lingtian, unless the Sect Leader personally gave the order, otherwise, it was impossible for him to kill Duan Lingtian.
He regretted it.
If he knew earlier, he should have directly made a move and killed Duan Lingtian after Duan Lingtian spoke those greatly disrespectful words earlier!
At that time, Zheng Fan and Qin Xiang hadn't targeted him yet.
He'd missed the best opportunity.
"She's Kerr's Master? The Alkaid Peak's Master? "
Duan Lingtian's gaze descended onto the beautiful woman that floated by Elder Bi's side, and he thought in his heart.
The beautiful woman was graceful and luxurious with an extraordinary bearing.
"Thank you, Peak Master."
Duan Lingtian sent a voice transmission to the beautiful woman.
The beautiful woman, the Alkaid Peak's Master, Qin Xiang, was stunned when she heard Duan Lingtian's voice transmission, then she replied via voice transmission. "Why are you thanking me?"
"If it wasn't for you and Peak Master Zheng Fan, this mad dog, Zhao Lin, would probably have already made a move against me."
Duan Lingtian continued via voice transmission.
"Mad dog?"
The corners of Qin Xiang's mouth twitched slightly, and she glanced deeply at Duan Lingtian. "You must give the Sect Leader an explanation for today's matter … Even though the Sect Leader thinks highly of your natural talent, it doesn't mean that you can act recklessly."
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian replied, then once again looked at Zhao Lin and asked indifferently. "Elder Zhao Lin, you said earlier that I don't take the Sect Leader seriously, and that is greatly disrespectful to the Sect Leader … I wonder if you take the Sect Leader seriously?"
"Of course!"
Zhao Lin didn't hesitate in the slightest as he spoke with certainty.
"So in this way, Elder Zhao Lin, you take the Sect Leader seriously, and you don't take him seriously in your heart?"
Duan Lingtian started laughing.
When he saw Zhao Lin's face go grim and want to refute, he'd already looked at the Seven Star Sword Sect's Leader, Linghu Jin Hong. "Sect Leader, I think that if you want to see if a Seven Star Sword Sect disciple respects you, it doesn't depend on whether the etiquette is considerate or not."
"Just like me, although I don't take you seriously, I still take you seriously in my heart and respect you from the bottom of my heart. Unlike some people … They say one thing, yet think another thing in their hearts. "
As Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he glanced at Zhao Lin and pointed out something.
"Duan Lingtian, don't make slanderous accusations!"
Zhao Lin's face went grim, and he almost roared.
At this moment, if it wasn't for Zheng Fan and Qin Xiang staring at him, he wished for nothing more than to directly make a move and tear Duan Lingtian into pieces, then burn his bones and scatter his ashes!
"Enough!"
A calm voice suddenly sounded out, and it suppressed Zhao Lin's hysterical voice.
Linghu Jin Hong glanced indifferently at Zhao Lin. "Zhao Lin, you ought to properly cultivate your character … You ought to change this impatient temper of yours."
"Yes, Sect Leader."
Zhao Lin took a deep breath and nodded.
But the gaze he looked at Duan Lingtian with contained frightening coldness mixed within, and he wished for nothing more than to kill Duan Lingtian as soon as possible.
Linghu Jin Hong looked at Duan Lingtian, and his eyes were calm and without the slightest ripple.
The hearts of everyone present couldn't help but rise.
All of them wanted to know.
Would the Sect Leader punish Duan Lingtian?
After all, what Duan Lingtian said earlier was too far-fetched.
Finally.
Linghu Jin Hong slowly spoke. "Duan Lingtian entered the Seven Star Sword Sect for less than two years, and he successively defeated a strong opponent on the life and death arena and killed four outer court disciples … He left the sect for a year, and on the day he returned, he used a cultivation at the ninth level of the Origin Core Stage to kill a first level Nascent Soul Stage inner court disciple."
Linghu Jin Hong's tone was calm, and although his voice wasn't loud, it entered into the ears of everyone present.
These deeds of Duan Lingtian were familiar to everyone present.
But when it was spoken out, it instead caused some Seven Star Sword Sect disciples to be greatly surprised.
"Looks like the Sect Leader has always been paying attention to Duan Lingtian."
"This isn't strange, Duan Lingtian is a rare genius in the Martial Dao of our Seven Star Sword Sect after all. Once he matures, his accomplishments wouldn't be inferior to the five great young masters."
"Exactly, with Duan Lingtian's natural talent, it's sufficient to obtain the Sect Leader's attention."
…
The crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect disciples whispered in discussion.
Duan Lingtian's brows raised.
