"Kid, do you think the Groom Search Competition held by my City Governor's Estate is a game? Or do you think no one wants my daughter? You think you can marry her just because you want to, and you don't because you don't want to? "
Feng Wu Dao glanced coldly at Duan Lingtian as he shouted out with a deep voice.
Now, when he saw Duan Lingtian actually only spat out a mouthful of blood under the envelopment of his imposing aura, a trace of imperceptible surprise flashed past Feng Wu Dao's eyes.
Originally, as far as he was concerned, his imposing aura was sufficient to crush Duan Lingtian, a mere fifth level Nascent Soul Stage martial artist, to the point he went limp on the ground.
"Where do you place the dignity of my City Governor's Estate by doing this? Where do you place my daughter's face?! "
Feng Wu Dao's voice abruptly became stern.
Whoosh!
An even stronger imposing aura flashed out to sweep towards Duan Lingtian.
Instantly, Duan Lingtian's already pale face went pale, and he felt as if his entire body was at the center of a storm, and he was on the verge of collapse.
Duan Lingtian glanced at the young woman with a pair of slightly red autumn eyes that stood by Feng Wu Dao's side, and at the same time that he spat out another mouthful of blood, he laughed bitterly. "City Governor Feng, when I ascended the combat ring, I told your daughter that … I'm only here for the Soul Transformation Fruit."
"You … really don't fancy me?"
The City Governor's daughter's autumn eyes were filled with tears as she stared at Duan Lingtian, and her gentle and pleasant voice contained slight excitement mixed within.
Duan Ling Tian sighed. "I haven't even seen your appearance, so how could I possibly take a liking to you? But, I've indeed only come here for the Soul Transformation Fruit, and I have no other intentions … If I can't only take the Soul Transformation Fruit, then I'll be disturbing you. Farewell! "
"I'm sorry."
Duan Lingtian looked at the City Governor's daughter and smiled apologetically, then he turned around with the intention of leaving.
"Do you think my City Governor's Estate is a place you can come and go as you please?"
At the instant Duan Lingtian turned around, he felt a voice that seemed to have condensed into a sharp arrow that fiercely pierced into his ears and shook his eardrums to the point they trembled.
A power that he could not resist instantly spread throughout his body.
In the next moment, he felt powerless and his consciousness gradually blurred.
The group of people outside the arena gradually disappeared before his eyes.
"Creak, creak ~ ~"
Before he fainted, he only heard the little gold mouse's furious cries by his ears, and then he completely lost consciousness.
When Duan Lingtian regained consciousness, he felt a soreness all over his body.
"It hurts!"
Duan Ling Tian opened his eyes, and only now did he notice that he was lying on a luxurious bed and was in a spacious room.
"You're awake?"
At this moment, the door opened, and a fiery red figure walked in. She was holding a plate, and on the plate was a bowl of fragrant meat porridge.
Duan Lingtian's stomach grumbled when he smelled the porridge.
"Why am I here?"
Duan Lingtian shook his slightly dizzy head and asked as he looked at the veiled red clothed young woman before him, the daughter of the City Governor.
"You were knocked unconscious by my father and have been unconscious for three days and three nights … My father's temper is like that, don't take it to heart."
The daughter of the City Governor placed the porridge at the side and helped Duan Lingtian to lie down. After that, she removed her veil and held up the bowl of porridge, scooped up a spoonful and blew on it before passing it to Duan Lingtian and lightly smiled. "It's been three days, you're surely hungry."
But, the current Duan Lingtian was instead dumbstruck.
At the instant the daughter of the City Governor removed her veil, he was completely dumbstruck.
After the veil fell, a peerlessly beautiful face that could captivate even birds and beasts appeared before Duan Lingtian's eyes. Her black brows were like a painting, her eyes were like two drops of autumn water, her fine nose, red lips, white teeth, and natural and tranquil facial features outlined a perfect outline, and she was beautiful to the point it was suffocating.
She was like a fairy that had fallen to the mortal world.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian only felt that his heart had completely calmed down because of the woman's appearance.
"You … are so beautiful."
Duan Lingtian muttered.
The beauty of the woman was breathtaking.
"You should eat the porridge."
The woman's beautiful face was crimson red, as if it could drip blood. She was as gentle as water, and was completely different from the valiant woman who had fought with Duan Lingtian on the arena earlier.
She was like fire at every turn, and like water at every turn.
This was Duan Lingtian's impression of the woman in his heart.
Duan Lingtian allowed the woman to pour a mouthful of porridge for him. When the porridge entered his stomach, he only felt a burst of warmth rising.
"I … I still don't know your name?"
The woman asked somewhat timidly.
"I'm Duan Lingtian."
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled and looked at the woman. "What about you?"
"Feng Tianwu."
The woman lightly smiled sweetly.
"I'm truly sorry about the matter from before … I really wasn't prepared."
Duan Lingtian had an apologetic expression when he recalled the matter from that day.
Feng Tianwu seemed to have recalled the matter from that day when she heard this, and she faintly sighed. "You … Don't blame my father, my father did it for me. Perhaps, it's really because your conditions are too similar to the person in my destiny … So my father isn't willing to let you leave just like this. "
"The person in your destiny?"
When he heard Feng Tianwu, Duan Lingtian seemed to be unable to make sense of it.
What destiny?
Feng Tianwu continued feeding Duan Lingtian the porridge as she slowly explained. "Actually, my father, Grandpa Kong, and Grandma Xu only came to this city a few years ago … At that time, this city wasn't called Phoenix Nest City yet."
Duan Lingtian was surprised, as he never imagined that the City Governor, Feng Wu Dao, was actually not a member of this city in the past.
After Feng Wu Dao arrived, he'd become the City Governor in a short few years, and he'd even obtained the respect of the residents of Phoenix Nest City …
Such ability was shocking.
"Then where did all of you come from?"
Duan Lingtian asked curiously.
"Darkhan Dynasty."
Feng Tianwu slowly spoke.
"Darkhan Dynasty!"
Duan Lingtian was shocked.
When he recalled Feng Tianwu's natural talent in the Martial Dao and Feng Wu Dao's unfathomable strength, he came to an understanding.
Perhaps, only a person from the Darkhan Dynasty would be able to possess such terrifying natural talent and strength.
"The destiny you spoke of earlier is?"
Duan Lingtian asked curiously when he recalled what Feng Tianwu had said earlier.
Feng Tian Wu sighed faintly and said slowly, "That was the fate that my great-grandmother had divined for me … She was a powerful Clairvoyant, and she was also the person I respected the most in my life. But, for the sake of divining a path of survival for an inauspicious person like me, she instead exhausted the last 20 years of her lifespan. "
As she finished speaking, Feng Tianwu's beautiful face was covered in traces of tears.
Diviner?
Duan Lingtian was puzzled when he heard this. Could it be that this Diviner was similar to those fortune tellers of my previous life?
But, in my previous life, Duan Lingtian had never believed in this.
"Don't be sad … Since your great grandmother chose to do this, it's sufficient to show that she loved you dearly. I presume that even if she knew in the netherworld, she wouldn't be willing to see you like this. "
Even though Duan Lingtian didn't believe in divination or destiny, but Feng Tianwu's current weeping appearance still caused him to be unable to bear it, and he hurriedly persuaded her.
Under his persuasion, Feng Tianwu finally recovered.
"Do you feel that the so-called 'destiny' is very illusory?"
Feng Tianwu looked at Duan Lingtian's eyes and suddenly asked.
Feng Tianwu's pair of beautiful eyes were pure and flawless like two beautiful gems, and it caused Duan Lingtian's mind to shake.
He didn't deny this question of Feng Tianwu's and nodded.
Feng Tianwu slowly said, "At the beginning, I wasn't willing to believe it as well … Until the last time on the Groom Search Competition, at the moment when I felt that my strength was inferior to yours, I finally believed that the destiny my great grandmother divined for me wasn't illusory."
"What do you mean?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Feng Tianwu with interest.
"Do you know why my father brought me to this city at the extreme south of the Darkstone Empire?"
Feng Tianwu asked and answered her own question. "It's precisely because of the destiny my great grandmother divined for me … According to what my great grandmother said, when I was 20 years old, I would meet the man of my destiny in the southernmost city of the Darkstone Empire, Phoenix Nest City."
When she spoke up to here, Feng Tianwu's peerlessly beautiful face flushed red. "So after my father became the City Governor of this city, he changed the name of this city to Phoenix Nest City."
"My great grandmother said that the man of my destiny came from the south … During the year I was 20 years old, he would appear at a certain period of time. She asked my father to hold a Groom Search Competition for me at that time, and use the Soul Transformation Fruit she left behind as my dowry. “
Feng Tianwu continued. "I just happened to be 20 years old this year … My father believed my great grandmother's words very much, and he held a Groom Search Competition for me during the period of time my great grandmother spoke of, all for the sake of waiting for the man of my destiny to appear. The 10 days of the Groom Search Competition was precisely the period of time my great grandmother divined that the man would appear …
"According to my great grandmother's words, that man wouldn't be more than 25 years old, and he would defeat me during the Groom Search Competition.
"With my strength, not to mention in this remote city of the Darkstone Empire, even if it's in the entire Darkhan Dynasty, a young genius below the age of 25 that's capable of defeating me is an existence that's rare like phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
"During the first nine days of the Groom Search Competition, even though many people had come, yet not a single one of them was a match for me. A thought arose in my heart when I saw the arrival of the 10th day … Perhaps, my great grandmother was wrong. Until you appeared and defeated me, only then did I know that the destiny my great grandmother spent 20 years of her lifespan to divine for me wasn't a blind guess. "
After she finished speaking, Feng Tianwu looked at Duan Lingtian and asked. "You're from the south?"
Feng Tianwu's words caused Duan Lingtian to be unable to recover from his shock for a short period of time.
To him, everything Feng Tianwu said was truly too profound.
Destiny?
He didn't believe in this.
"Yes, I'm from the south … But, perhaps all of this is only a coincidence?"
Duan Lingtian said to Feng Tianwu.
He was from the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, and the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom was indeed at the south of the Inkstone Empire.
"Coincidence?"
Feng Tianwu shook her head and went silent for a short moment before saying, "Don't worry, if you're unwilling, I won't force you."
"I didn't mean it like that … I …"
