Duan Lingtian thought of Duan Qiaoyu and wondered about her background.
Whether it was Linghu Heng or Linghu Huan, they were both stunned by Duan Lingtian's response.
"I'm afraid that my little sister will cause trouble for them after they kill me."
They understood what Duan Lingtian meant.
Duan Lingtian's meaning was that the Hidden Fog Sect's Elders Feng and Lei didn't dare to kill him because they were afraid that his little sister would take revenge for him.
From this, they understood the main point.
The 'little sister' Duan Lingtian spoke of wasn't an ordinary person.
What a joke!
How could someone who could make the Hidden Fog Sect's Elders Feng and Lei feel fear and not even dare to take revenge on the people who killed their disciple right under their noses be an ordinary person?
"Duan Lingtian, who is your little sister?"
When Linghu Huan looked at Duan Lingtian again, his fat face was solemn and serious.
To be able to make the Hidden Fog Sect's Elders Feng and Lei feel fear and forcefully suppress the hatred of their disciple, if it were him, he would also feel fear.
Faced with Linghu Huan's question, Duan Lingtian only smiled. "Elder Huan, you will know in the future."
It wasn't hard for Linghu Huan to understand that Duan Lingtian was evading the question. But, he didn't point it out and didn't ask again.
He could see that Duan Lingtian didn't plan on speaking. If he continued to ask, he would just be asking for a snub.
However, whether it was Linghu Huan or Linghu Heng, when they looked at Duan Lingtian again, their gazes were very different from before.
In the past, in their eyes, Duan Lingtian was a junior with astonishing talent and perception.
But now, they realized that Duan Lingtian had a 'background' that they didn't know about. Moreover, that background was something that even the Hidden Fog Sect's Elders Feng and Lei feared.
"Junior-apprentice Brother Duan."
When Duan Lingtian and Linghu Huan stopped talking and sat cross-legged on the side of the ship with their eyes closed to rest, a transmission entered his ears.
The person who sent the message was none other than Wu Feng, who had entered the Divine Palace and Divine Treasury left behind by Divine Emperor Qin Wu.
After returning to the Hidden Fog Sect, he had already met with Wu Feng.
However, as he questioned the Hidden Fog Sect's Sect Master Qian Yin in front of the Hidden Fog Sect disciples, Qian Yin didn't seem to want too many people to join in on the fun. He bluntly ordered the group of inner sect disciples to leave.
At that time, Wu Feng stepped down.
Therefore, Wu Feng wasn't too clear about what happened next.
Only when Wu Feng knew that everyone had left did he send a message to Duan Lingtian. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Duan Lingtian replied, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother Wu Feng."
"Are you okay?"
Wu Feng, on the other hand, was a little dumbfounded. "Junior Brother Duan, Elder Feng and Elder Lei let you go just like that?"
In Wu Feng's opinion, Duan Lingtian was almost certain to die this time.
After killing a disciple of Elder Feng and Elder Lei, and one that they doted on the most, it would be a miracle if Duan Lingtian was still alive.
"Do you think that's possible?"
Hearing Wu Feng's message, Duan Lingtian smiled and asked in reply.
"Then … where are you now?"
Wu Feng asked, "Did they imprison you and then set a time to execute you?"
"Junior Brother Duan, how about I talk to Elder Tang Chun … and see if he can contact Elder Xue Haichuan. If Elder Xue Haichuan is willing to accept you as a disciple, he can definitely protect you!"
Wu Feng said.
"No need."
Feeling Wu Feng's concern, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but feel a burst of warmth in his heart. "Senior Brother Wu Feng, after seeing you this time, your condition seems much better … it seems that Divine Emperor Qin Wu's remnant soul didn't affect you too much."
"My cultivation has recently made some progress. I am only a step away from the middle God King realm."
Wu Feng said, "Junior Brother Duan, let's talk about you … where are you now? Is it convenient for me to find you?"
"I left the Hidden Fog Sect."
Duan Lingtian said.
"You left the Hidden Fog Sect?"
"Mm."
"Where are you going? Are Elder Feng and Elder Lei willing to let you go? "
"They want to make things difficult for me … but, when I return this time, I won't be going alone. There are two other people coming with me. With them here, Elder Feng and Elder Lei can only watch as they take me away. "
"Who are they that even Elder Feng and Elder Lei fear?"
"The Linghu family's Elder Heng and Elder Huan … that's right, Senior-apprentice Brother Wu Feng, I have already declared in front of everyone today that I will leave the Hidden Fog Sect. After leaving the Hidden Fog Sect, I will join the Linghu family. Then, through the Linghu family, I will enter the Tianlong Clan. "
"The Linghu family?"
Wu Feng was silent for a moment. Then, he asked again, "Junior Brother Duan, have you confirmed that Linghu Chuyin is your wife?"
In his opinion, this could only be the reason why Duan Lingtian suddenly joined the Linghu family.
"I haven't seen her yet, so I can't confirm it."
Duan Lingtian transmitted, "I joined the Linghu family because I wanted to confirm this matter … but, it was also because the Hidden Fog Sect can't tolerate me."
"When you rejected Elder Lei, you shouldn't have done it in public. You should have done it in private … that way, Long Xiao might not hate you."
Wu Feng sighed.
He naturally knew that when Duan Lingtian said the Hidden Fog Sect couldn't tolerate him, it was because Long Xiao was against Duan Lingtian. Even Shangguan Xiongfeng was against Duan Lingtian because of Long Xiao.
If he didn't have a conflict with Long Xiao, Duan Lingtian's life in the Hidden Fog Sect would have been smooth sailing. Then, through the Hidden Fog Sect, he could have entered the Tianlong Clan.
"The Hidden Fog Sect will regret it one day."
Wu Feng thought about how Duan Lingtian would enter the Tianlong Clan through the Linghu family in the future. He would become a member of the Linghu family within the Tianjin Clan and compete with the Hidden Fog Sect.
"It's all in the past."
Duan Lingtian smiled and said, "Senior-apprentice Brother Wu Feng, we'll meet in the Tianlong Clan in the future … but, you have to hurry. Otherwise, by the time you reach the Tianlong Clan, I might have already left the Tianlong Clan."
As Duan Lingtian spoke with Wu Feng, he thought of the two friends he made at Wind City's Hidden Fog Academy, Ding Yan and Hou Qingning.
However, Hou Qingning had contacted him last time and said that Ding Yan had left without saying goodbye.
Now, in Wind City's Hidden Fog Academy, the only person who could be considered his friend was Hou Qingning.
…
Woosh!
With the speed of the Divine Emperor level flying ship, they soon returned to Linghu City. The Linghu family.
After Linghu Huan bade farewell to Duan Ling Tian, he left with his twin brother, Linghu Heng. After all, their mission could be considered complete.
As soon as the two left, Duan Lingtian saw the Linghu family's patriarch, Linghu Renjie.
Seeing Duan Lingtian again, Linghu Renjie's gaze was clearly a bit complicated.
Before Duan Lingtian returned, he had already received a message from Duan Lingtian. He learned of all the things that happened when Duan Lingtian went to the Hidden Fog Sect.
Among them, the most important was Duan Lingtian's mysterious' background '.
Or, it could be said that she was the mysterious' little sister 'that Duan Lingtian spoke of.
"Duan Lingtian, welcome to the Linghu family."
Although his mood was complicated, in front of Duan Lingtian, Linghu Renjie acted as if nothing had happened. He was quite enthusiastic and didn't treat Duan Lingtian as a junior at all.
"The reason I was able to safely escape from the Hidden Fog Sect is all thanks to the patriarch."
Duan Lingtian repeatedly thanked Linghu Renjie. If it weren't for the Linghu family's Heng and Huan elders following him to the Hidden Fog Sect, even if he hadn't died, he would have been imprisoned.
And once he was imprisoned, he could only wait for death.
In truth, he didn't have any background.
Even when he met Duan Qiaoyu in the past, they had only met by chance. They hadn't even exchanged soul beads, so he couldn't contact Duan Qiaoyu for help.
Once the Hidden Fog Sect waited for a long time and no one came to save him, they would conclude that he had no background and then kill him.
"This can be considered the first thing the family will do for you … in the future, there will be many things the family will need to rely on you for."
Linghu Renjie smiled.
"As long as it's within my ability, I won't refuse."
Duan Lingtian responded with a serious expression.
"I believe you."
Linghu Renjie smiled and nodded. Then, he called out to Duan Lingtian and personally led Duan Lingtian to the residence arranged for him. It was an independent mansion within the Linghu family mansion.
The mansion was spacious and there were many maids and servants arranged inside. There was even a butler. It could be said that everything was taken care of.
"For the next period of time, you can peacefully cultivate in the family. If there is anything you need, you can look for the butler. If the butler can't solve it, you can look for me and I will arrange it for you."
Linghu Renjie said to Duan Lingtian, "As for entering the Tianlong Clan … with your talent and perception, our Linghu family can recommend you to enter right now. But, I don't approve of this."
"Mm?"
While Duan Ling Tian was still feeling puzzled, Linghu Renjie said with a burning gaze, "Twenty-six years later, the Heavenly Dragon Sect will be recruiting disciples from the outside world once every 100 years. At that time, those who are under the age of 10,000 will be able to participate in the Heavenly Dragon Sect's entrance examination."
"As long as you can smoothly pass the entrance examination, you will have the qualifications to participate in the Hidden Dragon Grand Competition. At that time, the top 100 people will be able to obtain rewards from the Tianlong Clan.
"Those in the top 10 will have even more generous rewards.
"Only the top three, and the first place, will have even more generous rewards.
"The Hidden Dragon Grand Competition is only open to new disciples of the Tianlong Clan who pass the entrance examination once every 100 years. Only the Tianlong Clan's new disciples can participate.
"If you join now, 26 years from now, at the Hidden Dragon Grand Competition, you can only be a spectator."
When he spoke up to here, Linghu Renjie paused for a moment before continuing, "During the last Hidden Dragon Competition, every single person that was ranked in the top ten obtained an Emperor Ascension Divine Pill."
"And I've received news that … in this time's Hidden Dragon Grand Competition, every one of the top 10 people will also receive an Emperor Ascension Elixir.
"This is only one of the rewards for the top 10 people. There are other rewards, and the higher the ranking, the more generous they are."
Emperor Ascension Elixir!
As soon as he heard Linghu Renjie mention the Emperor Ascension Elixir, Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up, and even his breathing subconsciously became sluggish.
"It's precisely because of this that I think you can consider waiting until then to enter the Tianlong Clan."
Linghu Renjie said, "Of course, if you still want to enter now, I'll respect your decision."
