Ling Tian knelt beside Ling Yun's corpse in a daze, speechless as he watched the attention of the people around him being attracted by Yang Fan. He and his "little brother" who had just died were suddenly ignored.
Please.
Don't steal the show, okay?
Right now, he and Ling Yun were the main characters of this show, okay?
The two of them had been fighting for so long, but in the end, all the attention had been stolen by Yang Fan. This was really outrageous. Didn't he know that he was the one who needed the most attention and comfort right now?
"Junior Brother Yang Fan!"
Seeing that Wu Dao, Gu Zeyan, and the others had surrounded Yang Fan and were happily discussing the details of seducing the ruler of the thirty-six domains, as if they had completely forgotten about him, Ling Tian was secretly sad for a while. Finally, he couldn't help but ask Yang Fan.
"Just now, was it you who secretly attacked and blasted … blasted this thief's head?"
From the surprised expressions of Wu Dao, Gu Zeyan, and Liu Silong when they looked at Yang Fan and some of their conversation, it wasn't difficult to figure out what they meant.
However, Ling Tian still couldn't believe it. With Yang Fan's current strength, which wasn't even in the King Realm, how could he break through the will barrier of a half-step Emperor and kill a demon with the strength of a Level Six Spirit Emperor from a distance?
This didn't make sense!
How could someone be so awesome to be able to kill an enemy who was two realms higher than him?
Even if it was him, Ling Tian, or Ling Yun who was already dead, Ling Yun, who were said to possess extraordinary natural talent since a young age and were monstrous geniuses who were most likely to attain the Monarch Realm in the future, it was absolutely impossible for them to accomplish such a feat!
"Really?" Yang Fan was stunned and pretended to be confused. "Senior Brother Ling Tian thinks too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary first-year student. How could I have such great ability?"
Ling Tian looked at Yang Fan quietly. "I just tasted the taste of a high-grade Emperor Level Soul Refining Pill from the brain of this demon!"
The word "tasted" almost made Yang Fan and Ye Hanshuang spit it out.
When Ling Yun died, his skull exploded like fireworks. The contents of his skull splattered everywhere. A large part of it splattered on Ling Tian, who was standing opposite Ling Yun.
They didn't expect Ling Tian to be so abnormal. he knew that it was brain matter, but he still stuck out his tongue to taste the enemy's blood.
Wu Dao, Gu Zeyan, and Liu Silong's expressions were normal. They were all experienced and knowledgeable seniors. To them, tasting their opponent's brain matter was nothing.
In the past, when they were fighting against a group of demons, in order to conserve their spiritual energy and physical strength, didn't the things of Adu that splashed out from the stomachs of the demon beasts after they were dismembered often drench their faces and bodies?
Young people nowadays were too spoiled. This was all because of the promise of the Emperor.
The period of peace had been too long. Many of the good traditions of hard work had been thrown to the back of their minds by these young people.
"Although I don't know how you stuffed a high-grade Emperor Level Soul Refining Pill that far exceeded Ling Yun's cultivation realm into his sea of consciousness."
Ling Tian stared at Yang Fan as if he had already determined that Yang Fan was the real murderer.
"But I know that among everyone present, only you have such a high-grade Emperor Level Soul Refining Pill! Other than you, I can't think of a second person! "
Although the Pill Throwing Technique was the ultimate divine skill that all Soul Refiners dreamed of, it only existed in legends. There were very few people in the outside world who knew about it.
After all, this was an exclusive secret skill that only Emperor Level Soul Refiners could comprehend. Before Yang Fan, there had never been a True Emperor Level Soul Refiner in the Human Federation.
The only Soul Refiner with Emperor Level cultivation had just entered the Emperor Level not long ago. Before he had the time to display his strength as an Emperor Level Soul Refiner, he was feared by the Demon Clan and was secretly plotted to kill. Not many people knew about it.
Only old antiques like Wu Dao, Gu Zeyan, and Liu Silong had some interaction with that poor Emperor Level Soul Refiner back then. That was why they had some understanding of the Emperor Level Soul Refiner realm.
As for those of the younger generation like Ling Tian and Ye Han Shuang, they had never even heard of such a thing before.
"Moreover, you were the one who first pointed out Ling Yun's identity as a foreign species. I can feel that your killing intent towards this foreign species is no less than mine!"
Ling Tian was a Level Six Spirit Monarch after all. His senses were extremely sharp.
Although he didn't know why, he could feel Yang Fan's hatred and killing intent towards Ling Yun from the start. It was cold, manic, and uncontrollable.
There were a few moments when Ling Tian even had the illusion that Yang Fan was the victim of Ling Yun's death, and that he, Ling Tian, had become an insignificant bystander.
Especially just now.
When he sensed that Yang Fan had used the Soul Sucking Technique, which was unique to Soul Refiners, to refine Ling Yun's Spirit Origin, Ling Tian even saw a trace of perverted excitement and satisfaction on Yang Fan's face.
Was there a need to be so excited and happy about killing a foreign species?
He, the party involved, the victim, didn't feel the slightest bit of excitement and satisfaction after seeing his enemy's head explode. Why was Yang Fan, the spectator, so excited for no reason?
"Student Yang Fan, you don't have to shirk your responsibility anymore." Liu Silong softly interrupted, "Since Ling Tian wants to know the truth, then let's just tell him. This isn't anything shameful. What's there to hide?"
Gu Zeyan also winked at Yang Fan. Ling Tian's aptitude was godly. At such a young age, he already had the super cultivation strength of a Level Six Spirit Emperor. In the future, his chances of reaching the Monarch Realm would be much greater than even these old fellows.
With such a good opportunity in front of them, if they didn't take the opportunity to rope him in and form a good relationship with him, it would definitely be a huge loss.
Wu Dao was speechless as he curled his lips. He was naturally well aware of Gu Zeyan and Liu Silong's intentions. At the same time, he also felt a little sour.
Originally, this last move should have been made by him, the master, personally. Not only would he have saved Ling Tian, avenged his parents and brother, but he would also have been able to ease the resentment and estrangement in Ling Tian's heart.
In the end, it was Yang Fan who unexpectedly interfered in advance, causing Wu Dao to miss such an opportunity to ease the relationship between him and his disciple.
"However, this is also good!" Wu Dao's gaze lightly swept over Ling Tian and Yang Fan's hands. He thought to himself, "To befriend a True Emperor Rank Necromancer and a True Emperor Rank Doctor like Ling Tian, there are only benefits and no disadvantages."
In reality, even if this matter didn't happen, Wu Dao would have thought of a way to let Ling Tian and Yang Fan interact more after this matter.
After all, the pavilion closest to the water enjoys the moonlight first. Wu Dao wasn't as short-sighted as the Domain Lords of the thirty-three Federation Domains. They wouldn't offend a True Emperor Rank Doctor and a True Emperor Rank Necromancer just for a little bit of personal benefit.
"Just now, it was indeed young friend Yang Fan who secretly used a secret technique to kill Ling Yun and save your life." Wu Dao also stood out to speak for Yang Fan. "You mustn't be angry at Yang Fan because of this. After all, he had good intentions."
Wu Dao still had a good understanding of his disciple.
The reason why Ling Tian wanted to get to the bottom of this matter was because he wanted to know who had killed Ling Yun. Other than gratitude, there was also a trace of unwillingness and anger in his heart.
He wanted to kill his enemy with his own hands to appease the souls of his parents and clan in heaven.
Therefore, he didn't want Ling Yun to die at the hands of others. Even if he couldn't win, even if he had to fight to the death, he wouldn't hesitate.
However, now that Yang Fan had acted so recklessly, his hopes of killing his enemy with his own hands were dashed. Even if he knew that Yang Fan had good intentions, the resentment and awkwardness in his heart weren't something that could be easily reversed in a short period of time.
It sounded like a very complicated psychological activity and emotional state.
In fact, to put it bluntly, a bitch was just a hypocrite.
As long as he could kill the person and take revenge, it would be fine. Was it so important whether he had done it personally?
"Master, don't worry. I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know what's good for me." Ling Tian wasn't as stubborn as Wu Dao thought. He knelt on the ground and said frankly, "I know that even if junior brother Yang Fan wasn't here, you would still have acted in the end."
"In fact, compared to you saving me in the end, I still hope that junior brother Yang Fan would be the one who acted in the end."
"I only have gratitude in my heart now. There's no resentment, and I won't be angry at him because of this!"
Wu Dao's breathing stopped.
What did this little bastard mean? Was he, as his master, so unwelcome in his heart?
He would actually rather have an outsider who he had just met save him than let an old master who had raised and taught him for eighty-eight years do it. Did he have to be so heartless?
Although it was indeed his fault to hide the fact that Ling Tian was a demon, Wu Dao didn't expect that this matter would leave such a deep mark and resentment in Ling Tian's heart.
"Master, I don't want to return to the sect for the time being!"
Ling Tian respectfully kowtowed to Wu Dao, then straightened his body and said firmly to Wu Dao, "I want to stay in the capital for a period of time to gain experience, and at the same time repay junior brother Yang Fan for saving my life. I hope that master will be kind enough to allow it."
Wu Dao's body trembled slightly, and he lowered his head to look deeply at Ling Tian.
This child actually didn't want to return to the sect? It seemed that his heart was really broken!
"Alright."
Wu Dao didn't force him to stay, and nodded lightly. "It's also time for you to leave the sect and gain experience."
"The capital is now in a turbulent situation, and soon all parties will gather. There's no harm in staying here to learn and see more."
"However, you must remember that no matter how long you gain experience outside, Sacred Forest Island will always be your home!"
