"No?"
The expressions of the Zhu Clan's Patriarch and Eldest Young Master went grim at the same time.
After they found out about the sequence of events, they wished for nothing more than to tear those two Zhu Clan servants into pieces.
Now, they heard that someone had let those two servants go.
Boundless flames of rage arose in their hearts!
"Why did you let them go?"
The Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master looked at Duan Lingtian and asked in a low voice.
There was no lack of a questioning tone in his tone.
Although the Zhu Clan's Patriarch didn't speak, the gaze he looked at Duan Lingtian with had imperceptibly become colder.
At this moment.
This pair of father and son seemed to have completely forgotten.
If it wasn't for Duan Lingtian making a move, the Zhu Clan's Second Young Miss, Zhu Qing, would have already become a dead soul under the blades of those two Zhu Clan servants.
When he heard the questioning tone in the Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master's tone, Duan Lingtian frowned and said indifferently, "It seems to be none of your business who I let go, right?"
"It's naturally none of my business if you let others go … But you let go of two servants that wanted to kill my younger sister. You're undoubtedly not taking my Zhu Clan seriously!"
The Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master shouted in a grim voice.
Not taking the Zhu Clan seriously?
The words of the Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master caused Duan Lingtian to be unable to help but be stunned.
When he saved Zhu Qing, he seemed to have utterly not known of the existence of the Zhu Clan, right?
Moreover, even if he knew of the existence of the Zhu Clan, so what?
Was it the Zhu Clan's turn to tell him what to do?
"Eldest Young Master Zhu, right?"
Duan Lingtian's calm gaze met the Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master's gaze as he said with a chilly voice, "Don't forget, if it wasn't for me, this younger sister of yours would have already died in the desert … Now, you're denouncing me?"
Duan Lingtian's words caused the Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master's expression to freeze, but the rage in his eyes didn't show any signs of dispersing.
"Not to mention that I didn't know of the existence of your Zhu Clan before this … Even if I knew, so what if I didn't take your Zhu Clan seriously?"
Duan Lingtian continued.
As he finished speaking, he had a mocking smile. "Could it be that a clan that treated its savior like that still want others to respect it? Laughable! "
How laughable!
Duan Lingtian's words made the Zhu Family's three Patriarchs dumbfounded.
"You … you're courting death!"
The Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master was the first to react. The Origin Energy in his body surged, and his aura was like a rainbow as he charged towards Duan Lingtian.
In the sky, four thousand ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form.
"The third level of the Void Prying Stage?"
The corner of Duan Lingtian's mouth curled up in disdain.
"Done."
Right at this moment, an indifferent voice sounded.
It was the Zhu Clan Head who stopped his son. "He's right. After all, he saved your sister's life. Our Zhu Clan can't treat our savior like this."
Although the Zhu Family's Patriarch said so.
However, the way he looked at Duan Lingtian was extremely cold, as if he was trying to push people a thousand miles away.
"Humph!"
Eldest Young Master Zhu coldly harrumphed and glared at Duan Lingtian. "Count yourself lucky!"
"Sir, you've saved my daughter's life, and I thank you here."
The Zhu Clan's Patriarch nodded to Duan Lingtian, and then he said indifferently, "But, we have something to do in a while, and I'm afraid we can't entertain you … Do as you please."
Duan Lingtian started laughing.
Originally, he indeed intended to turn around and leave.
But now, the attitude of the Zhu Clan's father and son caused him to be extremely displeased in his heart.
Trying to save a person, and even getting into trouble?
If the Zhu Clan's Patriarch politely asked him to leave now, he would leave without saying a word and would absolutely not stay for a moment longer.
After all, he'd never thought of obtaining any benefits from the Zhu Clan.
But the Zhu Clan's attitude now caused him to feel that if he didn't obtain some benefits, then he would seem to be slightly unworthy of their warm hospitality.
"Zhu Clan's Young Miss."
Duan Lingtian looked at the nearby Zhu Qing who had a cold and indifferent expression, and he grinned. "If I'm not wrong … After I saved you that day, you'd once promised that you'd surely reward me generously after I sent you back to the Zhu Clan!"
"Now, I've sent you back … Shouldn't you fulfill your promise and reward me generously?"
Duan Lingtian spoke word by word. "I think that Second Young Miss Zhu wouldn't go back on her word, right?"
"You … You …"
Zhu Qing's beautiful face flushed red, and she was speechless.
She seemed to have indeed promised him this.
But, these were only polite words she'd said at that time.
She had extremely complicated feelings towards her 'savior' who'd let go of two dogs that wanted to kill her, and she'd never thought of really wanting to reward him generously.
Now, the Zhu Clan's Patriarch had taken the initiative to mention this, and it caused her to be both angry and anxious.
There's actually someone in this world with such thick skin?
Duan Lingtian's words caused the faces of the Zhu Clan's Patriarch and Eldest Young Master to sink.
"Kid, you arbitrarily let go of those two dogs that wanted to kill my younger sister, yet you still want my Zhu Clan to reward you generously?"
The Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master spoke with a low voice.
His tone contained rage mixed within.
"Eldest Young Master Zhu, you're mistaken."
Duan Lingtian shook his head. "Eldest Young Master Zhu, think about it properly … I've already saved your younger sister, and it's already an extremely great kindness to your Zhu Clan! As for whether or not to kill those two people isn't my obligation. "
"Of course, if your Zhu Clan feels that the life of the Zhu Clan's Second Young Miss isn't worth mentioning and doesn't reward me generously, then it's fine as well. I'll leave now. "
Duan Lingtian glanced indifferently at the Zhu Clan's Patriarch and Eldest Young Master, and the corners of his mouth curled into a ridiculing smile as he turned around with the intention of leaving.
"Wait!"
Right at this moment, the Zhu Clan's Patriarch stopped Duan Lingtian with a gloomy expression.
"Patriarch Zhu, do you still have something?"
Duan Lingtian turned around and asked indifferently.
"Although my Zhu Clan can't be considered to be a clan that's ranked high in the Darkhan Dynasty, it isn't a clan that doesn't know how to repay kindness … Speak, how do you want my Zhu Clan to thank you?"
The Zhu Clan's Patriarch spoke word by word with a low voice.
"Patriarch Zhu is straightforward as expected!"
Duan Lingtian started laughing. "How about this, I won't be greedy … Hmm, just give me 100 million gold."
Duan Lingtian's voice entered into the ears of the three Zhu Clan members, causing them to seem as if they were struck by lightning and be stunned on the spot.
100 million gold?
This isn't greedy?
"Kid, don't be shameless!"
The Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master shouted out furiously.
Duan Lingtian paid no attention to the Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master and instead looked at the Zhu Clan's Patriarch as he smiled indifferently. "What? Patriarch Zhu, do you think your daughter's life isn't worth 100 million gold? "
"Nevermind … Since the Zhu Clan's Second Young Miss is so cheap in the eyes of the Zhu Clan, then take it as I've never said these words."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and casually waved his hand before walking out.
The Zhu Clan's Patriarch's face flickered between a livid and ashen expression.
Zhu Qing stood at the side with an extremely unsightly expression.
Never had she imagined that.
This violet clothed young man that saved her would actually ask for such an exorbitant price.
100 million gold!
Although it wasn't to the extent of hurting their Zhu Clan, it was still an enormous amount of wealth, and it was enough to make their hearts ache.
"Wait!"
Finally, the Zhu Clan's Patriarch spoke once more, and his voice was incomparably low.
"Father!"
The Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master's face went pale. "Although this kid saved my sister, he let those two damnable servants go … At most, it can be considered as offsetting! You don't have to give him so much money. "
Offsetting?
At the instant the Zhu Clan's Patriarch opened his mouth, Duan Lingtian had stopped in his tracks.
Now that he heard the words of the Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master, his face instantly seemed to be covered in a layer of frost.
Now, he suddenly felt that.
His previous actions were slightly wishful thinking.
At that time, even if he looked on helplessly as Zhu Qing was killed, it wouldn't affect him in the slightest.
If he wanted to leave the desert, he didn't have to rely on Zhu Qing.
So long as he coerced those two Zhu Clan servants, they could similarly bring him out of the desert.
"Enough … If it wasn't for him, your sister would have died long ago."
The Zhu Clan's Patriarch raised his hand to stop his son, then withdrew a thick stack of gold from his Spatial Ring. "This is 100 million gold … From today onwards, our Zhu Clan doesn't owe you anything."
"Thank you, Patriarch Zhu."
The frost on Duan Lingtian's face instantly melted when he saw the Zhu Clan's Patriarch pass over the gold, and he received it without the slightest trace of politeness and put it away within his Spatial Ring.
This caused the nearby Zhu Clan's Eldest Young Master to gnash his teeth with hatred.
Whereas Zhu Qing's beautiful face was unsightly to the extreme as well.
That was 100 million gold!
"Eldest Young Master Zhu, Second Young Miss Zhu, farewell."
Before leaving, Duan Lingtian intentionally bid farewell to the other two people, then he walked off in large strides.
For a time, only the three Zhu Clan members remained on the spot, each with thoughts of their own.
After Duan Lingtian left the Zhu Clan, he heaved a sigh of relief and his face revealed a brilliant smile. "I truly never imagined that just lifting a finger would earn me 100 million gold!"
"I wonder which direction of the Darkhan Dynasty this Abundance City is located at …"
When Duan Lingtian thought up to here, he started to inquire everywhere.
In the end, he finally confirmed it.
Abundance City was located at the southwest area of the Darkhan Dynasty, and it was adjacent to the southern desert.
"After Little Gold and I entered the Darkhan Dynasty, we entered the southern area of the Darkhan Dynasty … Looks like that sandstorm forcefully blew us to this southwest area."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"Even though the Darkstone Empire has a map of the Darkhan Dynasty, it isn't very detailed … This is the Darkhan Dynasty, I ought to be able to buy a more reliable map."
Duan Lingtian searched for a while and finally bought a map of the Darkhan Dynasty from a bookstore in Abundance City.
Amongst the maps, there was even the symbol of Abundance City that he was currently at.
In the entire territory of the Darkhan Dynasty.
Abundance City was only an existence that was even smaller than an ant.
"My destination this time is the most flourishing trade city in the Darkhan Dynasty, Milky Way City … This is something that Little Gold knows as well. Perhaps I'll be able to meet Little Gold there. "
Duan Lingtian put away the opened map in his hand and prepared to leave Abundance City and head to Milky Way City.
But he hadn't walked out of the city gate in time.
Duan Lingtian noticed that he was being followed.
"Zhu Clan members?"
Duan Lingtian frowned.
Besides the Zhu Clan members, he couldn't think of anyone that would target him.
"It's probably not someone sent by the Zhu Clan's Patriarch … The Zhu Clan's Patriarch wants to deal with me, and he made a move at the Zhu Clan Estate earlier, so it's impossible for him to give me 100 million gold."
