"Patriarch of the Yeh family, what are you doing?"
Duan Lingtian was shocked by the array of people in front of him.
Most of the people around Ye Ting were elderly. In terms of age, they were old enough to be his grandfather.
But now, these old men were bowing to him, which made him feel a little uneasy.
"Brother Duan, thank you for what you have done for the Yeh family. From today onwards, you are the most distinguished guest of the Yeh family! If you need anything, the Yeh family will do our best to help you! "
Ye Ting spoke with a serious expression.
"Patriarch of the Yeh family, you don't have to do this."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and frowned. "Besides, I don't like this … ask them to disperse. Xiao Xuan, let's go back. "
As Duan Lingtian spoke, he called out to Ye Xuan and left.
At that moment, only Ye Ting and the rest were left with a bitter smile on their faces.
The group of Yeh family elders looked at Duan Lingtian's back as he left. Their faces were full of respect.
They had heard about what had happened at the Shen Family's mansion from the Patriarch. It was the entire Yeh family's blessing that this young man in purple was willing to stay with them!
Even though this was only temporary.
"Elder Brother Duan, I heard from my father … you are really amazing."
On the way back, Ye Xuan looked at Duan Lingtian with admiration and sighed. "If only I were as amazing as you … then I would be able to help my father protect the Yeh family."
"Silly girl, you are still so young."
Duan Lingtian patted Ye Xuan's head lovingly and smiled. "If you really want to cultivate, Elder Brother Duan will teach you a set of techniques!"
"Really?!"
Ye Xuan's eyes lit up when she heard this. In her opinion, since Elder Brother Duan was so strong, the techniques that he brought out would definitely not be something that the Yeh family's techniques could compare to.
"Of course."
Duan Lingtian smiled and nodded, as if he was coaxing a child.
Of course, Ye Xuan was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. In his eyes, she was no different from a child.
In Duan Lingtian's memories, there was no lack of cultivation methods.
He casually took out a set of cultivation techniques left behind by the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, and it was not something the Yeh family's cultivation techniques could compare to. In addition, he could also teach Ye Xuan some martial techniques that were suitable for her.
He didn't lack pills or spirit tools, so he could easily refine them.
To a certain extent, Ye Xuan had saved his life and was his savior. Therefore, he would do his best to repay this great kindness.
Of course, he also liked Ye Xuan very much and completely treated Ye Xuan as his own biological sister.
"If Father and Mother could give me a younger brother or sister, how good would that be?"
Duan Lingtian sighed.
In his previous life, he was an orphan. He had no parents, not to mention brothers or sisters.
He only had a group of comrades who had gone through fire and water with him, and in the end, all of them stayed on the battlefield forever. This was the most important reason why he chose to retire.
In his previous life, he wished so much for a warm family, but that was destined to be a delusion.
To be able to come to this world was undoubtedly a gift from the heavens. In this world, he had parents and people he cared about.
If his parents could give him a younger brother and a younger sister, it would undoubtedly be even more perfect.
Duan Lingtian temporarily stayed with the Yeh family because he still didn't understand the situation outside Driftcloud Town.
Who knew if he would encounter an expert he couldn't deal with once he went out and be directly killed … He wasn't alone now, so he didn't dare take the risk.
In the next few days, Duan Lingtian had a certain understanding of the eastern area of the northern desert from Ye Xuan.
Firstly, there were a total of three great forces in the eastern area of the northern desert.
Of course, in the entire Foreign Lands, these three great forces could only be considered as third-rate forces because they were similar to the Skywolf Fort, Blade Sect, Empyrean Temple, and Emotion Severing Sect in the Southern of the Northern Desert.
The three great forces were the Five Element Sect, Crimson Moon Sect, and Flying Sand Sect.
"I heard that the Eldest Young Master of the Shen Family, Chen Wei, entered the Five Element Sect a long time ago."
Ye Xuan said, "In our Driftcloud Town, everyone would give a thumbs up when Chen Wei is mentioned … But so long as his younger brother, Shen An, is mentioned, then everyone would scoff at him!"
As she finished speaking, Ye Xuan wrinkled her cute little nose. Shen An was precisely that profligate disciple she was almost forced to marry.
"Chen Wei? Five Element Sect? "
Duan Lingtian's brows raised. He never imagined that the Shen Family's Patriarch, Shen Dong, would have such a promising son, and Chen Wei was a complete opposite of Shen An.
Since the Five Element Sect was one of the three great forces in the eastern area of the northern desert, then it was presumably extremely strict when it recruited disciples.
It was impossible for someone without a certain amount of natural talent and comprehension ability to join the sect.
"Looks like the saying that the dragon has nine sons, and each one is different isn't false in the slightest."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
"Right, Elder Brother Duan, when I went out yesterday, I heard of something …"
Ye Xuan looked at Duan Lingtian, and her beautiful face carried slight worry.
"What is it?"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be slightly curious when he saw Ye Xuan's expression.
"I heard that in a few days, the members of the Five Element Sect will be stopping by our Driftcloud Town, and they seem to be recruiting Void Interpretation Stage martial artists below the age of 40."
When she spoke up to here, Ye Xuan frowned. "Besides Chen Wei who's already entered the Five Element Sect, there's probably no other Void Interpretation Stage martial artist below the age of 40 in a small place like our Driftcloud Town."
"So, I guess that Chen Wei is amongst the members of the Five Element Sect, and he's probably using this opportunity to come back and visit his family! Elder Brother Duan, why don't you go lie low for a few days, as I'm worried Chen Wei will look for trouble with you. "
As she finished speaking, Ye Xuan had a worried expression.
"The Five Element Sect? Recruiting Void Interpretation Stage martial artists below the age of 40? "
Duan Lingtian was stunned when he heard Ye Xuan, and then a flash of inspiration appeared in his mind, causing him to be slightly excited in his heart. "Could it be that the Five Element Sect knows of the secret vault left behind by the expert Emperor Wu?"
"Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up, and the more he thought about it, the more certain he was.
If it wasn't for this, would the Five Element Sect send people to recruit disciples?
Moreover, there were specific requirements.
Below the age of 40?
Void Interpretation Stage martial artist?
This was no different than the requirements the Skywolf Fort, Blade Sect, Empyrean Temple, and Emotion Severing Sect had when they recruited disciples after the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties ended.
"Looks like this is an opportunity."
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed as he thought to himself in his heart.
During these few days that he was with the Yeh family in Driftcloud Town, he'd been thinking about how to leave so as to guarantee that he would be able to safely arrive at the Blade Sect and converge with Feng Tianwu and the others.
He believed that his sudden disappearance would surely cause those friends of his to be extremely worried.
Now, he finally had an opportunity.
The Five Element Sect was his opportunity.
"The Five Element Sect is obviously making preparations for the secret vault left behind by the expert Emperor Wu … So long as I temporarily join the Five Element Sect, I'll surely head to the secret vault left behind by the expert Emperor Wu. In that way, I'll be able to encounter the members of the Blade Sect, Tian Wu, Su Li, Big Brother Zhang, and the others."
Duan Lingtian decided in his heart. "I presume the Five Element Sect probably won't refuse my entry."
Duan Lingtian was extremely confident about this.
Moreover, it was the time when the Five Element Sect thirsted for geniuses, and it was utterly impossible for them to refuse his entry.
"Elder Brother Duan, did you hear what I said?"
Ye Xuan couldn't help but laugh bitterly when she noticed Duan Lingtian was in a daze, and she stretched out her hand to shake Duan Lingtian's arm. Only then did Duan Lingtian wake up from his daze.
"Xiao Xuan, what's wrong?"
Duan Lingtian returned to his senses and asked.
"Elder Brother Duan, go lie low for the next few days. Chen Wei has a very good relationship with that good-for-nothing younger brother of his. If he really returns, he'll surely look for trouble with you."
Ye Xuan repeated once more, and her beautiful face was filled with anxiousness.
"Chen Wei? Is he very strong? "
Duan Lingtian smiled confidently. "Xiao Xuan, don't forget … Even the Supreme Elder of the Shen Family was defeated by me. Could it be that Chen Wei is even stronger than the Supreme Elder of the Shen Family? "
"Elder Brother Duan, Chen Wei might not be a match for you … But since the Five Element Sect has come to recruit disciples, there'll surely be some seniors of the sect that came with Chen Wei. I heard that the weakest elder of the Five Element Sect is an existence at the Void Transformation Stage or above."
Ye Xuan spoke with a worried expression. "Even though they aren't members of the Shen Family, Chen Wei is a member of the Five Element Sect. If Chen Wei asks them to lend a hand, I presume they won't refuse."
She was most worried about this.
Even though Chen Wei's strength wasn't bad, it was inferior to the Supreme Elder of the Shen Family, and he wasn't a match for her Elder Brother Duan.
But what about the seniors of the sect that traveled with Chen Wei?
Even though she was only the Young Miss of the tiny Yeh family in Driftcloud Town, but to her, the reputation of the Five Element Sect reverberated like thunder, and it was an existence that the Yeh family had to look up to.
"Don't worry, Elder Brother Duan knows what to do."
Duan Lingtian was naturally able to discern that Ye Xuan's concern came from the bottom of her heart, and warmth couldn't help but arise in his heart, then he said with a smile, "Xiao Xuan, I truly never imagined that you're so young, yet your thoughts are so meticulous … Do you have any plans for the future?"
"I intend to stay by my father's side for my entire life and help him take care of the Yeh family."
Ye Xuan spoke seriously.
"Could it be that you haven't thought of anything else? For example, leaving Driftcloud Town and joining one of the three great powers to properly experience the outside world. "
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Elder Brother Duan, do you think you can join the three great powers just because you want to?"
Ye Xuan laughed bitterly. "Two years ago, the Crimson Moon Sect's people were widely recruiting disciples, and they passed by our Driftcloud Town and held an examination … But I was eliminated in the first round of the examination."
"Xiao Xuan, believe in Elder Brother Duan … The current you is different from the previous you."
Duan Lingtian said with a smile.
During these few days of staying in the Yeh family, besides passing on some cultivation methods and martial skills to Ye Xuan, Duan Lingtian had repeatedly used gentle Origin Energy and Spiritual Energy to merge into Ye Xuan's body, and cleansed her meridians and marrow.
That was an exclusive method recorded in the memories of Samsara Emperor Wu, and although it wasn't as effective as the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk, it wasn't bad either.
