Spring House's Heavenly Dining Room charged a high price, but the service was also very good.
For example, if someone arrived at the Heavenly Dining Room first.
The person who arrived earlier would tell the restaurant the surname of the person who arrived later. If the person who arrived later didn't have the right surname, the restaurant wouldn't let him in.
"Duan."
As Duan Lingtian spoke, the waiter confirmed it and looked at Duan Lingtian with a smile. "Young Master Duan, Young Master Hou is already waiting for you in Heavenly Dining Room 2."
"Okay."
Duan Lingtian nodded and followed the waiter all the way to the top floor of the restaurant and arrived in front of a dining room.
"There's only one person in the dining room."
Before the waiter opened the door, Duan Lingtian heard Linghu Huan's voice. "The person hiding in the dark hasn't shown himself yet, but we don't dare to use our Divine Sense to check as it will alert the enemy."
"Next, we'll hide in the dark. If you sense the aura of a Divine Emperor, we'll attack immediately."
"What you need to do is to stall for time as much as possible so that you won't be killed by the enemy before we arrive."
Linghu Huan's tone became more and more serious as he spoke.
"Guest, please come in."
After the attendant opened the door, Duan Ling Tian walked in, then he noticed Hou Qingning who sat within with a single glance, and he couldn't help but reveal a smile. "Only you? I thought you called the others from the Thousand Leaves Sect. "
"I was worried that you'd spend too much money, so I didn't call them."
Hou Qingning smiled.
"Have you ordered?"
Duan Lingtian sat down and asked immediately.
"Not yet. Aren't I waiting for you?"
"Waiter, order!"
As Hou Qingning spoke, the waiter who had been waiting outside the door came in and introduced the dishes of the restaurant to Duan Lingtian and Hou Qingning.
"Is there anything you want to eat?"
Hou Qingning asked Duan Lingtian.
"No."
Duan Lingtian shook his head. "For us, eating is all about taste … Why don't we ask him to serve all of his signature dishes?"
"Sure."
Hou Qingning nodded and asked the waiter to place the order.
However, the door to the private room closed once again. Hou Qingning looked at Duan Lingtian with a sigh. "Duan Lingtian, I really didn't expect that you would come this far in just a few years."
"Not only has he become a Deity King, but he's also an Emperor level Divine Alchemist!"
Hou Qingning looked at Duan Lingtian with a complicated gaze.
Although the conversation between him and Duan Lingtian would be transmitted to the ears of the black-robed man through the array disc that he had brought with him, which had already been activated.
However, when he saw Duan Lingtian again, he could not help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.
"How is it? How have you been at the Hidden Fog Academy recently? "
Duan Lingtian asked with a smile.
"It's just like that. It's very boring."
Hou Qingning shook his head. "If I knew it would be so boring, I wouldn't have gone to the Hidden Fog Academy … I should have gone straight to the Hidden Fog Sect."
Hou Qingning was the Young Sect Master of a God King level sect, the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect. Although the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect didn't develop any influence in the God Emperor level Hidden Fog Sect, they still had some necessary connections.
In addition, Hou Qingning's talent and perception weren't bad. It wouldn't be difficult for him to directly enter the Hidden Fog Sect and become an inner sect disciple.
"However, now that you've left the Hidden Fog Sect, even I want to enter the Hidden Fog Sect."
Hou Qingning said with a sigh.
Duan Lingtian smiled. "Why don't you come to the Linghu family as well?"
"Forget it."
Hou Qingning shook his head. "You probably won't stay in the Linghu family for long … Are you going to the Tianlong Clan next?"
"How do you know?"
Duan Lingtian asked in surprise.
"It's not hard to guess."
Hou Qingning smiled. "With your talent and perception, in addition to your achievements in alchemy, even the Tianlong Clan won't be able to keep you for long."
"I never thought that I, Hou Qingning, would one day be able to make such an amazing friend like you."
As Hou Qingning spoke, there was a bit of worry in the depths of his eyes.
He had 'reminded' Duan Lingtian before.
But, he didn't know if Duan Lingtian had reacted or if he had made any preparations.
At this moment, he was completely a puppet of the black-robed man. He had to act according to the black-robed man's instructions. Moreover, his conversation with Duan Ling Tian was displayed to the black-robed man through the Formation.
The black-robed man was very cautious and didn't plan to make a move here.
Moreover, he didn't dare to send any sound transmissions because the black-robed man had told him that if he dared to send any sound transmissions and Duan Lingtian's expression became unnatural, the black-robed man would immediately go to Ten Thousand Leaves City and destroy the entire Ten Thousand Leaves Sect behind him!
"Duan Lingtian, if you really didn't hear my 'reminder', I hope you won't blame me … That's already the limit of what I can do."
Hou Qingning looked normal on the surface, but he was sighing in his heart. "After all, behind me are the lives of thousands of people in the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect!"
Earlier, when he had warned Duan Lingtian, it could be said that he hadn't left any traces, and the black-robed man wouldn't have noticed.
However, that reminder was very obvious to Duan Lingtian.
Unless Duan Lingtian had completely forgotten that he hadn't said those words to him back then … This was also what he was worried about.
If Duan Lingtian clearly remembered that he hadn't said those words to him back then, he would definitely be able to react. However, even if Duan Lingtian had a stunned expression at that time, the black-robed man wouldn't have been able to see it.
Moreover, Duan Lingtian's behavior had been normal after that, so he guessed that Duan Lingtian might have already known that he was in danger and had probably made arrangements for him to appear here now.
However, he couldn't rule out the second possibility.
Duan Lingtian had forgotten that he hadn't said those words to him back then and had come here alone.
However, no matter which possibility it was, he couldn't do anything now and could only rely on Duan Lingtian himself.
While Duan Lingtian and Hou Qingning were chatting, the dishes were quickly served in the restaurant. The two ate normally and naturally, as if it was an ordinary meal between good friends.
Of course, the cost was also extremely expensive.
One had to pay with Divine Stones, and it was more than ten taels of Divine Stones.
"Let's go."
After Duan Lingtian paid the bill, Hou Qingning called out to Duan Lingtian and then asked with a smile, "Duan Lingtian, I've bought a mansion in Linghu City this time. Do you want to come with me to take a look?"
"Is it your mansion or the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect's?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned at first, but then asked with a smile.
"Ahem … the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect."
Hou Qingning awkwardly coughed twice, "How about it? Do you want to go take a look?"
At this moment, he naturally hoped that Duan Lingtian would refuse, because the black-robed man had set up an inescapable net in that mansion.
Once Duan Lingtian entered, even if Duan Lingtian had a Godemperor from the Linghu family secretly protecting him, it would be too late to save him.
"Next time."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and said, "I'm in a hurry to go back to the Linghu family to refine a few Divine Pills. One of the patriarchs of the Linghu family asked me to refine them, and it's urgent."
"Okay, next time then."
Hou Qingning nodded with some disappointment.
"Then let's part here. If I have time, I'll go to the Hidden Fog Academy to see you."
Duan Lingtian smiled and thanked Hou Qingning.
"Okay."
Hou Qingning squeezed out a smile and nodded.
Then, the two separated with their backs facing each other.
When the two had just walked a dozen steps.
A sudden change occurred!
Bang!!
Accompanied by a loud noise, a ghostly black figure instantly landed in Duan Lingtian's path. The bricks on the street where the figure landed shattered, and spiderweb-like cracks spread in all directions.
In the center of the spiderweb, where the black figure landed, the whole ground caved in.
It was a person shrouded in a hooded black robe. It was impossible to see his face or figure, but his appearance shocked the surrounding people and made them retreat.
For a moment, only Duan Lingtian and the figure were left.
"Who are you?" “
Duan Lingtian looked at the black-robed figure and his face suddenly changed. At the same time, he asked with fear in his eyes, "Why are you blocking my path?"
"The person who will kill you!"
A hoarse voice sounded, and then the black-robed figure released his divine power. Rolling power swept out like a stormy sea.
Then, as though it had transformed into a gigantic beast, it charged madly at Duan Ling Tian.
Bang!!
Another loud noise rang in the air. The gigantic beast formed from the Divine Monarch's energy that was about to land on Duan Ling Tian was destroyed by the attack from the sky.
Then, two figures, like ghosts, appeared in front of Duan Lingtian and protected Duan Lingtian behind them.
"Heng Huan Elders?!"
The black-robed figure's hoarse voice changed at this moment. Then, before the surrounding people could react, his figure flashed and he was ready to leave.
However, at this moment, seven other forces swept out from the dark and blocked his path of retreat from all directions, leaving him with no way to retreat.
This was the ambush from all sides.
Then, the masters of the seven forces, Linghu Zhengxing and the others, appeared one after another.
"Linghu Zhengxing?"
The black-robed figure seemed to recognize Linghu Zhengxing. When he saw Linghu Zhengxing, his body trembled violently. Then, he looked at Hou Qingning, who had come to Duan Lingtian's side at some point in time. Under the hood, his face could not be seen clearly, but two terrifying rays of light shot out. "Hou Qingning, how dare you warn Duan Lingtian … Aren't you afraid that I will send a message and destroy your entire Ten Thousand Leaves Sect?"
"I believe in Duan Lingtian."
Hou Qingning looked at the black-robed figure indifferently and said coldly.
The reason why he dared to say this was because he knew that Linghu Renjie, the head of the Linghu family, and Murong Yunliu, the head of the Murong family, were very close. They were like brothers of the opposite sex.
The Murong family was not far from Ten Thousand Leaves City, where the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect was located.
This was also one of the main reasons why he took the risk to warn Duan Lingtian.
If he warned Duan Lingtian, it would directly cut off the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect's survival. Even if he wanted to warn Duan Lingtian, he did not have the courage to say it.
After all, on one side was a person, and on the other side was a sect with thousands of people. Moreover, it was a sect that had nurtured him!
