"If it weren't for Honorable Master being interested in him, I wouldn't even bother with him."
The tall figure wearing dark golden robes was a young man. After hearing Shangguan Xiongfeng's words, he shook his head and disdainfully said, "So what if he is a genius? If he can't grow, everything is in vain! "
This young man was called Long Xiao. He was the eldest disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect's Elder Lei. The last time on the Extreme Martial Arena, Shi Tongming, was the one who invited Duan Lingtian to become Elder Lei's disciple, and this was his junior-apprentice brother.
Last time, after Shi Tongming returned, he said that Duan Lingtian had refused to become his Honorable Master's disciple. Although his Honorable Master had only smiled and brushed it off, he had still caught a trace of displeasure in his Honorable Master's eyes.
Because of this, from that moment on, he remembered this matter in his heart.
Today, when Duan Lingtian went to the Trading Hall and exchanged a medium-grade divine artifact for two Revival Good Fortune Pills, he had also heard from others … it was also at that time that he wanted to mess with Duan Lingtian.
Thus, he found his friend, Shangguan Xiongfeng, and had him snatch away Duan Lingtian's two Revival Good Fortune Pills to vent his anger.
Shangguan Xiongfeng was Elder Feng's eldest disciple, and as Long Xiao was Elder Lei's eldest disciple, he had always had a good relationship with Shangguan Xiongfeng. With just a message, Shangguan Xiongfeng had gone to help him with this matter.
"Next, are you going to ignore him, or are you going to tease him?"
Shangguan Xiongfeng grinned and asked.
"He dared to refuse my Honorable Master. If I let him go like this, that would be letting him off too easily."
Long Xiao sneered. His eyes narrowed and a cold light flashed in them. "Later, I'll go and humiliate him again! I'll add a handful of salt to his' wound '! "
"Haha …"
Shangguan Xiongfeng laughed. "Then you have to tell me what happened. I'm very interested to know."
"Also … once he breaks through and becomes a Divine King, we'll find a chance to kill him. His performance today can be said to be cowardice, but it can also be said to be forbearance. "
"If we don't kill him, then with his natural talent and comprehension ability, he might ride on our heads in the future … At that time, if he wants to settle old scores, then it won't be a good thing for us."
As Shangguan Xiong Feng spoke, his eyes flashed with killing intent.
"There's no hurry."
Long Xiao smiled faintly. "Let's see if he's willing to walk ten miles on his knees and beg my master to take him in as a disciple … However, based on my understanding of my master, if that Duan Lingtian really did that, he would never take Duan Lingtian in as a disciple."
"Once this matter falls through, we will do as you said. After that Duan Lingtian breaks through and becomes a Godking, we will find an opportunity to kill him."
"Killing him now would be letting him off too easily."
"When he breaks through and becomes a God King and feels that his future is bright, then I'll kill him. The effect will be better."
A cold killing intent flashed in Long Xiao's eyes as he spoke.
"Indeed."
Shangguan Xiong Feng nodded with a smile. "I think so too. I didn't expect you to have the same thoughts as me. "
…
It was a huge blow to Duan Ling Tian that the two Creation Pills were snatched away.
After all, he originally had the opportunity to become a God King in a day with the two Creation Pills … However, now that the Creation Pills were gone, even if he still had many divine pills that aided his cultivation, their effects could not be compared to the Creation Pills.
Under such circumstances, even the Body Strengthening Divine Fruit that he obtained from the core disciple challenge could not be used for the time being.
"That's right!"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up. "How could I have forgotten about the Zhong Clan?"
The Zhong Clan of Tianfeng City had been extremely respectful to him ever since he had eaten with Tang Chun at the restaurant. In order to make amends, they had even given him a large sum of wealth.
Among the wealth, there were five Creation Pills.
At that time, according to his calculations, the Zhong Clan should have given him half of their wealth.
If he guessed correctly, the Zhong Clan should still have five Creation Pills left.
"Find Zhong Tiannu."
Under the guidance of inner sect Elder Zhang Jin, Duan Lingtian arrived at an independent mansion. Not long after he entered the room, Duan Lingtian left the room and the mansion.
Then, he left the core disciple's cultivation area.
The core disciple's cultivation area was located in a mountain range. Vast mansions of different shapes and sizes were scattered everywhere. There were at least a hundred of them.
But now, there were only a few dozen mansions with people living in them.
Duan Lingtian casually found a mansion to stay in.
In the Hidden Fog Sect, it wasn't just the inner sect disciple's cultivation area. Even the core disciple's cultivation area was the same. There was no competition like the Hidden Fog Academy's 10-star student dormitories.
"Young Master Duan, are you looking for me for something?"
Zhong Tiannu was flattered to see Duan Lingtian come looking for him. At the same time, he was also a bit nervous.
Recently, Duan Lingtian's performance in the Hidden Fog Sect had not only stunned everyone in the Hidden Fog Sect, but it had also frightened him. He never imagined that Duan Lingtian would have such monstrous talent and perception.
In the past, he only thought that Duan Lingtian had a good background.
But looking at the current situation, it wouldn't be long before Duan Lingtian relied on his own strength. He didn't need to rely on the influence behind him to suppress their Zhong Clan.
"Mm."
Duan Lingtian went straight to the point. "I came looking for you because I want you to ask your foster father if the Zhong Clan still has Creation Pills. If they do, I, Duan Lingtian, am willing to take out a middle grade divine artifact to exchange for them. "
"A middle grade divine artifact for three Creation Pills."
Duan Lingtian offered a high price. If the Zhong Clan still had Creation Pills, they absolutely wouldn't hide them.
"I'll help you ask."
Hearing this, Zhong Tiannu didn't dare to be negligent. He quickly sent a message to his foster father, the patriarch of Skywind City's Zhong Clan, Zhong Clan.
A moment later, Zhong Tiannu regained his composure. He looked at Duan Lingtian and said apologetically, "Young Master Duan, my foster father asked me to convey his apologies to you … the family originally had five Creation Pills, but some time ago, four were distributed to the family juniors.
"Now, there is only one Creation Pill left.
"The patriarch said that he will immediately have someone deliver it to Young Master Duan. Young Master Duan doesn't need to pay anything."
Zhong Tiannu said.
Although he was a little disappointed, Duan Lingtian was still pleasantly surprised that there was a Creation Pill. "Convey my thanks to the Zhong Clan's patriarch."
Even though Duan Lingtian had hardened his heart towards the Zhong Clan before, he couldn't help but feel his heart soften at this moment.
The Zhong Clan was so cooperative that he couldn't bear to target them too much.
However, when he recalled the Zhong Clan's men of sacrifice he had encountered earlier, he knew he would never let go of anyone from the Zhong Clan who had participated in the assassination attempt.
Naturally, even if that day came, he would still have to wait for a while.
Currently, the Zhong Clan was afraid of him because of Duan Qiaoyu's appearance in the past. She had given him the opportunity to intimidate others.
If it wasn't for Duan Qiaoyu and Yu Qiuxuan, the Divine Emperor, the Zhong Clan would not have been so afraid of him.
…
"Duan Lingtian?"
After greeting Zhong Tiannu, Duan Lingtian left the cultivation area of the inner sect disciples. When he returned to the cultivation area of the core disciples, he discovered someone was waiting for him outside his mansion.
It was a young man dressed in a long dark golden robe. He was tall and burly and was not shorter than Duan Lingtian. He was quite handsome and had a dignified expression. The first impression he gave off was that he was arrogant.
When Duan Lingtian heard the young man calling out his name, he raised his eyebrows slightly. "You are?"
"Long Xiao."
In a flash, the young man appeared in front of Duan Lingtian and sized him up.
"Long Xiao?"
Duan Lingtian's heart sank. If it was before today, he wouldn't have known who Long Xiao was. However, after Shangguan Xiongfeng snatched away the two Revival Pills, he learned of Long Xiao's existence from the inner sect elder, Zhang Jin.
Long Xiao was Elder Lei's eldest disciple.
Elder Lei was the Hidden Fog Sect's Supreme Elder who wanted to take him in as a disciple but was rejected by him. He was one of the four strongest Supreme Elders.
Of course, he didn't reject Elder Lei directly. He only rejected the disciple Elder Lei sent, Shi Tongming.
The reason Zhang Jin mentioned Long Xiao was because he suspected that Shangguan Xiongfeng's appearance and snatching of the two Revival Pills from Duan Lingtian had something to do with Long Xiao.
Otherwise, he couldn't figure out why Shangguan Xiongfeng would suddenly target Duan Lingtian.
In the past, there had been news of other inner sect disciples possessing Revival Pills, but Shangguan Xiongfeng had never tried to snatch them away. This was because if news of this spread, his reputation wouldn't be good.
No matter how much Shangguan Xiongfeng didn't care about his reputation, he was still Elder Feng's eldest disciple. He had to protect Elder Feng's reputation.
Because of this, Zhang Jin suspected that Shangguan Xiongfeng's appearance was incited by Long Xiao.
This was because the two of them were familiar with each other and were good friends.
Of course, Zhang Jin only said that this was his guess and that he might have guessed wrong. But Duan Lingtian knew that the possibility of this was very high. Zhang Jin was only afraid of stirring up trouble, so he repeatedly said that this was just his guess and might not be correct.
"It seems that Elder Zhang Jin's guess was correct."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"Let me formally introduce myself."
Long Xiao looked at Duan Lingtian arrogantly and said with a grin, "I, Long Xiao, am Elder Lei's eldest disciple."
"Shi Tongming, who met you last time, is my junior brother."
Long Xiao said.
"What's the matter?"
Duan Lingtian asked indifferently.
"Nothing much."
Long Xiao shook his head and looked at Duan Lingtian mockingly. "Duan Lingtian, I heard that you exchanged a middle-grade divine weapon for two Revival Pills today. Someone actually snatched them away?"
"That person seems to be Elder Feng's eldest disciple, Shangguan Xiongfeng?"
Long Xiao looked as if he had just heard about it.
"You came here just to mock me?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes were calm and his emotions were calm. He had already guessed Long Xiao's intention. He was here to kick him when he was down.
"Of course not."
Long Xiao shook his head again. "I'm here to show you the right way."
"Shangguan Xiongfeng dared to snatch your Revival Pills because you, Duan Lingtian, have no background and are easy to bully."
"If you were my master, Elder Lei's disciple, and my junior brother, do you think he would dare to do that?"
"Even if you are my junior brother now, Shangguan Xiongfeng will have to obediently spit out the two Revival Pills!"
