"Junior-apprentice Brother Duan?"
After receiving Duan Lingtian's message, Wu Feng was a bit surprised.
However, when Duan Lingtian told Wu Feng that the Tianlong Clan's inner sect Elder, Kuang Tianzheng, had come looking for him, Wu Feng's complexion changed.
"Since they found me, they must have found you as well … I estimate that Senior-apprentice Brother Wu Feng called me by my surname, so they guessed that the person with you was me.
"I have the protection of the Linghu Family Head, so there shouldn't be any problems … but, Senior-apprentice Brother Wu Feng, the Hidden Fog Sect might not be able to protect you."
Before coming to the Linghu family, Duan Lingtian had heard Wu Feng mention many things about the Linghu family. Wu Feng had also compared the Linghu family with the Hidden Fog Sect. Both had their own merits.
However, in terms of sect protecting array formations, the Linghu family was stronger, and much stronger.
The Hidden Fog Sect couldn't stop a middle Divine Emperor.
Let alone a middle Divine Emperor, even the last time Duan Lingtian left with the Linghu family's Old Men Heng and Huan, the Hidden Fog Sect couldn't stop them.
For instance, Wu Feng was only an inner sect disciple. In front of an inner sect Elder like Kuang Tianzheng of the Tianlong Clan, it was hard to say whether or not the Hidden Fog Sect would protect him.
With the Hidden Fog Sect's half-baked sect protecting array formations, even if they wanted to protect him, they wouldn't be able to.
"So, if possible … Senior-apprentice Brother Wu Feng, I advise you to leave the Hidden Fog Sect."
Duan Lingtian advised Wu Feng as he said, "How about you come to the Linghu family? I can ask the Linghu Family Head to recommend you. "
He had always been grateful to Wu Feng.
After all, if it weren't for Wu Feng bringing him to the Divine Abode left behind by Divine Emperor Qin Wu, he wouldn't have obtained anything.
"Junior-apprentice Brother Duan, I appreciate your good intentions."
And on Wu Feng's side, there was soon a response. "I will immediately leave the Hidden Fog Sect … but, after this, I cannot go to the Linghu family. I am a native of the Profound Handle Land, and I have my own family. I plan to return to my family and lead them to move. "
"If that Tianlong Clan inner sect elder can't find me, he'll definitely follow the clues and find my clan. I have to take the first step and move with my clan."
"In the future, Junior Brother Duan, if you need my help, feel free to send me a message. As long as it's within my power, I won't refuse!"
After Wu Feng finished his transmission, there was no response. Clearly, he was busy.
"Duan Lingtian."
Just as he ended his communication with Wu Feng, Duan Lingtian received another message. It was from the head of the Linghu family, Linghu Renjie.
"Duan Lingtian, Kuang Tianzheng insisted on seeing you. I brought him into the family mansion."
"Come to the main hall for a moment."
"Don't worry … I will control our Linghu family's great sect protecting array to protect you. Even if that Kuang Tianzheng attacks you, he won't be able to kill you."
As Linghu Renjie finished speaking, he deliberately comforted Duan Lingtian.
"Come here. Just give him a perfunctory reply."
Linghu Renjie added.
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian responded. Then, he left the room, leaving the mansion that Linghu Renjie had arranged for him.
Then, he went straight to the main hall.
In the main hall, Linghu Renjie stood there. And not too far in front of Linghu Renjie was an old man.
This old man had a medium build, white hair, and a ruddy complexion. He looked extremely ordinary, but Duan Lingtian knew that this was restraint. Moreover, this sort of restraint was rare for ordinary people. Only when one's cultivation reached a certain level could they achieve this.
"Patriarch."
Duan Lingtian greeted Linghu Renjie as he walked into the main hall. In the blink of an eye, he was near Linghu Renjie and the old man in front of him.
"Duan Lingtian."
Linghu Renjie returned the greeting with a smile. Then, he took a few steps forward and stood in front of Duan Lingtian. He stood between Duan Lingtian and the old man.
Then, with his back facing the old man, he introduced, "This is the Tianlong Clan's inner sect elder, Elder Kuang Tianzheng."
"Elder Kuang Tianzheng used to be a disciple of the Thousand Demons Sect. Later, he joined the Tianlong Clan and rose through the ranks. He is a prominent figure of the Thousand Demons Sect in the Tianlong Clan."
After Linghu Renjie finished his introduction, he turned to look at Kuang Tianzheng. "Elder Tianzheng, I don't think I need to introduce Duan Lingtian, right?"
At the same time, Duan Lingtian nodded at the old man as a form of greeting.
"Duan Lingtian."
Kuang Tianzheng's eyes were like lightning as he looked at Duan Lingtian. He asked in a deep voice, "I heard my junior-apprentice brother Du Zhan's grandson Du Qianjun say that before my disciple Chu Han died, the last people he came into contact with were you and that Hidden Fog Sect disciple Wu Feng?"
Duan Lingtian heard this. Although he knew what was going on, his face was still filled with confusion. "Elder Tianzheng, what are you talking about? How come I don't understand? "
"Your disciple Chu Han? I've never heard of him, nor do I know him. "
"You … did you mistake him for someone else?"
The confusion on Duan Lingtian's face caused Kuang Tianzheng to frown. If it weren't for the fact that he was 100% sure that the person beside Wu Feng was Duan Lingtian, then he might have been fooled by Duan Lingtian.
He knew that it was impossible to see any clues from Duan Lingtian's expression. Duan Lingtian was clearly an expert in this field.
"Duan Lingtian, my disciple Chu Han, you were the one who killed him, right?"
Kuang Tianzheng asked once more. Moreover, this was the most sensitive question.
Even Linghu Renjie's expression changed drastically. Immediately, his right hand shook the void. Immediately, a layer of light appeared in front of him, Duan Lingtian, and Kuang Tianzheng.
The Linghu family's Protective Array Formation formed a defensive barrier in front of Duan Lingtian and Linghu Renjie, separating them from Kuang Tianzheng.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian felt an absolute sense of security as he looked at the translucent light barrier in front of him.
He had heard about the Linghu Clan's Great Protective Array from Wu Feng. He knew how strong the Great Protective Array was. It could kill Low-Level Divine Emperors with the power of the Great Protective Array. Ordinary Low-Level Divine Emperors couldn't even break through the Great Protective Array. A Mid-Level Divine Emperor couldn't break through the Great Protective Array. Ordinary High-Level Divine Emperors couldn't break through it.
"Linghu family head, you're too careful."
Kuang Tianzheng looked deeply at Linghu Renjie and said in a low voice.
Although Kuang Tianzheng looked calm on the surface, his heart was filled with anger and helplessness. He was angry at Linghu Renjie for being so careful and helpless against the Protective Array Formation in front of him.
Just now, as soon as he finished speaking, he was ready to kill Duan Lingtian.
He didn't expect Linghu Renjie to react so quickly.
When his consciousness probingly landed on the formation canopy in front of him, he discovered that with his strength, it would be impossible for him to completely break through the formation canopy.
Therefore, he didn't make a move in the end.
"Elder Tianzheng, you told me that you only came to ask Duan Lingtian a few questions."
Linghu Renjie looked at Kuang Tianzheng, a trace of dissatisfaction appearing in his eyes. His tone also became much lower. "I believe in your sincerity, that's why I allowed you to see Duan Lingtian."
"I'm sorry, but because I thought of my disciple Chu Han who died in vain, I couldn't help but be a bit agitated."
Kuang Tianzheng restrained the divine power he was accumulating. Although he was apologizing, his tone was frivolous and casual, without the slightest bit of sincerity.
Then, he looked deeply at Duan Lingtian and said, "Duan Lingtian, it's best if you have nothing to do with the death of my disciple Chu Han.
"Otherwise, whether it is the Hidden Fog Sect or the Linghu family behind you, none of them will be able to protect you."
After leaving behind these 'ruthless' words, Kuang Tianzheng turned and left.
When he turned and left, one could feel the divine power on his body surface again, like a surging flame that was constantly roaming on the surface of his body.
"I heard that you plan to participate in our Tianlong Clan's' Hidden Dragon Grand Competition 'in 20 years … We will meet again at that time."
These were the last words Kuang Tianzheng said before he walked out of the main hall and flew away.
However, from beginning to end, Duan Lingtian's expression was calm. He was not affected by Kuang Tianzheng's ruthless words at all.
To him, Kuang Tianzheng was just a small stumbling block on his path to the Profound Handle Land. If he couldn't even cross this small stumbling block, how could he talk about rescuing his wife Kerr 300 years later?
Of course, if Linghu Chuyin was Kerr, he also needed to have enough strength to obtain the recognition of the Xia family behind Kerr.
Perhaps Kerr didn't care about this.
However, as a man, he cared a lot about this.
"Duan Lingtian."
Linghu Renjie couldn't help but bitterly smile. "Now, not only have you offended the Hidden Fog Sect's Elders Feng and Lei, but even this Kuang Tianzheng wants to kill you.
"Before you go to the Tianlong Clan, you have to be careful. It's best if you don't take half a step away from our Linghu family's residence."
After saying this, Linghu Renjie's bitter smile disappeared and was replaced with a solemn and dignified expression.
"I understand."
Duan Lingtian nodded. He understood this principle, so he naturally wouldn't foolishly send himself to his death.
He had already thought about it. If he were Elders Feng and Lei, he definitely wouldn't be willing. He would definitely come to Linghu City and wait for an opportunity to attack him.
Of course, the possibility of Elders Feng and Lei directly killing him was very low, unless they completely ignored the Hidden Fog Sect.
Otherwise, before they confirmed whether or not he had an amazing background, they absolutely wouldn't kill him.
Just like in the Hidden Fog Sect, Elders Feng and Lei didn't attack him because they were afraid of the amazing background behind him.
Otherwise, they would have killed him as soon as they saw him.
As for that Kuang Tianzheng, he clearly didn't have so many misgivings.
As long as Kuang Tianzheng found an opportunity, he would likely kill him directly. With Kuang Tianzheng's attitude just now, it was clear that he would rather kill the wrong person than let him go.
"I never thought that before I even entered the Tianlong Clan, I would make such an enemy …"
Duan Lingtian sighed in his heart. "However, even without such an enemy, the Hidden Fog Sect of the Tianlong Clan would still view me as a thorn in their side."
Within the Tianlong Clan, those from the Linghu family, the Hidden Fog Sect, and the Ten Thousand Demon Sect had all gathered together. They were all on the same side as their previous families and sects.
…
"What!?"
"Wu Feng ran away!?"
Not long after leaving the Linghu family and returning to the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, Kuang Tianzheng received a message from Du Zhan. He was so angry that his face flushed red and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
At this moment, his intestines turned green with regret. "Damn it! It must have been that Duan Lingtian who leaked the information! "
