Duan Lingtian regretted it.
If he knew earlier, he wouldn't have saved that 800,000 silver ….
But now.
For the sake of 800,000 silver, he was about to lose his life.
Little Fei, Kerr ….
I haven't had the time to dote on all of you. I don't want to die yet!
"Duan Lingtian, looks like even the heavens want you dead. You didn't even investigate clearly before wanting to kill me with an offensive inscription …. My defensive inscription, Crystal Wall Inscription, was bestowed to me by the Senior Patriarch that year. Who in the older generation of the Li Clan doesn't know about it? "
Li Tai walked over in large strides, and every step seemed to be a talisman that hastened Duan Lingtian's death.
Duan Lingtian picked up his sword once again and stood ramrod straight, not saying a word as he waited for Li Tai's arrival.
Even if he wasn't a match for Li Tai, he would still fight!
Even if he died, he would die heroically!
An awe-inspiring aura stretched out from his body. It was an unyielding unyieldingness that would rather die than submit.
Li Tai was moved once again.
The cold light in his eyes grew deeper.
If this kid doesn't die, then he'll surely be a great calamity!
Bang!
Li Tai's palm followed like a shadow as it flashed towards Duan Lingtian.
Whoosh!
The Violet Myrtle Flexible Sword in Duan Lingtian's hand swept out to intercept Li Tai's palm.
Slap!
Li Tai's palm slapped down, slapping the sword flying, and his momentum didn't decrease as it pressed towards Duan Lingtian's chest.
Above him, 110 ancient mammoth silhouettes moved with a thunderous momentum.
The strength of an eighth level Origin Core Stage martial artist fully exploded out!
Feeling the oppressive and suffocating aura, the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth curled into a bitter smile.
Am I going to die again?
Om!
But in the next moment, the ear piercing sound of a saber accompanied by Li Tai's shrill cry caused Duan Lingtian to feel as if he was jolted awake from a dream.
In an instant, he felt a hand on his shoulder, pulling him to the side.
He focused his eyes and looked.
Presently, Li Tai's right hand that struck out with his palm was severed at the wrist, spraying out hot blood, and his body was thrown out over 10 meters due to inertia.
Duan Lingtian looked at the person who saved him.
He wore tight black clothes and wore a demonic mask. The blood trough of the crescent blade in his hand was still dripping with Li Tai's blood …
"Grade Eight Spirit Artifact!"
With just a glance, Duan Lingtian could tell the grade of the crescent blade.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian discovered that the eyes behind the black clothed man's devil mask flashed with a trace of a smile.
So it was him!
Duan Lingtian was shocked.
"You're from 'Phantom'?"
At this time, the pale-faced Li Tai who had stopped the bleeding looked at the black-clothed man with fear.
The black-clothed man ignored Li Tai.
Instead, he looked at Duan Lingtian and asked, "Now, are you going to issue a mission to kill Li Tai? If not, I'll leave. "
Duan Lingtian rolled his eyes at him and said exasperatedly, "Of course! You've been hiding at the side to watch the show, haven't you? "
The black-clothed man laughed dryly and strode out.
Above him, 120 ancient mammoth silhouettes instantly appeared, like dark clouds covering the sun, with an imposing manner that shot into the sky like a rainbow.
"Ninth … Ninth level of the Origin Core Stage!"
Li Tai's face went pale.
"1,000,000 silver, 1,000,000 silver … I'll pay 1,000,000 silver to buy Duan Lingtian's life!"
Li Tai panicked.
Not to mention him who had lost his most important arm, even if he was at his prime, he might not be a match for a ninth level Origin Core Stage expert.
"In my eyes, his life … is far worth more than 1,000,000 silver!"
The black-clothed man replied to Li Tai.
Li Tai's face went pale.
Flee!
He didn't dare hesitate and turned around to flee, transforming into a string of afterimages as he executed his movement technique to the limit.
However, the black-clothed man's speed was even faster, like a ghost, catching up to him in the blink of an eye.
Om!
A strand of white light flashed past.
Li Tai's body trembled and flew out. His hands tightly clutched at his throat, but he was unable to stop the blood from gushing out.
The dignified Li Clan's Grand Elder ended his life just like that.
Meanwhile, the black-clothed man took off his mask.
It was precisely the medicine store's manager!
Duan Lingtian wasn't surprised when he saw the black-clothed man's true appearance, because he noticed it long ago.
However, the black-clothed man's cultivation still gave him a fright.
Ninth level Origin Core Stage.
Such a cultivation was comparable to the Li Clan's Patriarch, Li Ao.
"Manager, I've known you for so long, but I seem to still not know your name."
Duan Lingtian's eyes flickered as he stared at the black-clothed man.
"During the day, I'm called Tang Ahniu. At night, I'm Tang Ying, codenamed Blood Moon. "
Tang Ying smiled.
"Tang Ahniu?"
The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth twitched.
No matter what, it was difficult for him to connect this name with the Ghost Shadow Assassin who killed decisively earlier.
"The inscription you used earlier was the Blood Crescent Inscription?"
Suddenly, Tang Ying looked at Duan Lingtian and asked.
"Exactly."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"You inscribed it yourself?"
Tang Ying asked again.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded once more.
Tang Ying glanced deeply at Duan Lingtian, then sized up Duan Lingtian. "I really want to capture you and dissect you to see what other secrets you have …"
Duan Lingtian's expression froze. "There's no need for that."
"I want some Blood Crescent Inscriptions."
Tang Ying suddenly spoke.
"Sure, but you have to prepare the materials yourself. Besides that, I'll charge 100,000 silver for each Blood Crescent Inscription."
A trace of craftiness flashed within Duan Lingtian's eyes.
"You … Really ruthless."
The corners of Tang Ying's mouth twitched, but he still said, "Deal!"
Before Tang Ying left, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but ask. "You've been following behind me these past few days?"
Tang Ying rolled his eyes at Duan Lingtian and said angrily, "Do you think I'm like you, having so much free time? I still have to look after the store during the day … I asked someone to monitor Li Tai, and when Li Tai left Aurora City, I followed him here. I'm also curious as to why you're so confident that you can kill Li Tai. "
"In the end, someone failed miserably. Hahahaha … "
As he finished speaking, Tang Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth twitched.
"No matter what, I owe you my life this time. I'll inscribe the first ten Blood Crescent Inscriptions for you for free."
Duan Lingtian never liked owing favors.
"So generous? Then I won't be stingy either. I'll waive the mission fee for killing Li Tai. "
Tang Ying looked at Duan Lingtian with a bit of surprise. His figure moved like a ghost, and with a few ups and downs, he disappeared from Duan Lingtian's line of sight.
"Looks like in the future, when it concerns my life, I can't be too stingy …"
Duan Lingtian deeply remembered this lesson in his heart.
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian's ears twitched slightly.
His expression changed.
He noticed that there was a group of people in the distance that was heading this way.
He didn't have time to deal with Li Tai's body, so he flew up to a nearby tree and hid there, overlooking everything beneath his feet.
Soon, seven young men walked over in large strides.
On the clothes of these young men hung an emblem.
Wang Family.
"Could it be that they're from Triumph City's Wang Family?"
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart.
There were three cities around the Misty Forest: Aurora City, Aqua Mist City, and Triumph City.
The Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse He Zu Dao he met in the Misty Forest was from Aqua Mist City's He Family.
"Eh, there's a corpse here."
A young man noticed Li Tai's body and cried out in surprise.
"Humph! Daring to enter the inner area of the Misty Forest without any strength, he deserved to die. "
A person walked over in disdain.
"No … He wasn't killed by a fierce beast. Look, his cut off arm is clean. He was killed by a sharp weapon that slit his throat."
A young woman who was more attentive said.
"It's true. Eh, there's an emblem on his clothes. "
Another young man walked up and wiped Li Tai's emblem clean.
"The Li Family!"
Instantly, a few people cried out in surprise.
Duan Lingtian didn't panic when these people discovered Li Tai's identity.
No one would think that he had the strength to kill Li Tai.
"Humph! So it's a member of the Li Family, he deserved to die. "
A young man in blue seemed to be extremely angry when he mentioned the Li Family.
"Yeah, the members of the Li Clan are too detestable. Wang Huai's younger brother, Wang Zhen, and a few outer court disciples came to the Misty Forest to hunt Black Pythons, and at the critical moment, it was a youth and a young girl from the Li Clan who acted as the oriole behind the scenes. Not only did they obtain the benefits, they even killed the few outer court disciples of our Wang Clan who survived."
"Fortunately, Wang Zhen was born with a deviated heart. Otherwise, I'm afraid he would have become a wandering ghost in the Misty Forest."
"Even so, Wang Zhen's internal organs were still pierced, and he's still recuperating now …"
"If it weren't for the fact that Wang Zhen's body isn't suitable for running around, the Patriarch would've already personally brought him to the Li Family to identify the culprits."
"When Wang Zhen recovers, I'll also go with him to the Li Family. I want to see just what kind of person is so vicious."
… …
A group of Triumph City's Wang Family disciples were discussing spiritedly.
Their casual discussion fell into Duan Lingtian's ears, causing Duan Lingtian's expression to change slightly.
Black python?
The oriole behind?
Weren't the Li Family disciples these people were talking about him and Kerr?
"I didn't think that my luck would be so 'good' that I could even meet someone with a deviated heart."
Duan Lingtian had the urge to vomit blood.
As far as he knew, one in ten thousand people with a deviated heart was one in ten thousand.
Although he had killed countless people in his previous life, he had never met such a person.
In this life, he had only killed a few people in total, but he had actually met such a person.
How unlucky.
"What should we do with this old guy from the Li Family?"
"I think we should send him back to the Li Family … this way, the Li Family will owe us a favor. Who knows, maybe the next time the Patriarch brings Wang Zhen to identify the culprits, the Li Family will be willing to hand over the murderer for us to personally deal with."
"That makes sense."
… …
Seeing the group of Wang Family youths take Li Tai's body away, Duan Lingtian flew down and left the Fog Forest.
After returning to Aurora City, he didn't directly return to the Li Family mansion.
He went straight to the medicine shop to find Tang Ying.
"Why are you looking for me in such a hurry? Is something the matter?"
Tang Ying was a little surprised to see Duan Lingtian arrive.
"I want to issue a mission."
Duan Lingtian went straight to the point.
"Target?"
Tang Ying asked.
"Wang Zhen … a member of the Wang Family in Triumph City."
Duan Lingtian said unhurriedly.
As far as he was concerned, Wang Zhen's survival was a potential threat to him.
He had to be eliminated!
"Triumph City?"
