"Eh? Someone's here? It should be Ling Dong. He came at the right time ah! "
Qing Jiu's joyful expression when he realized that it might be Ling Dong's arrival was the best indication of his current intentions — to let his disciple, Ren Henshui, who was the bane of Ling Dong's cultivation technique, trample on Ling Dong to show off his prowess!
Listening to Qing Jiu's words and looking at Qing Jiu's expression, the calmness on Hei Tian's face finally disappeared. He understood what kind of impact this kind of public trampling would have on a cultivator. At this moment, Hei Tian wished he could rush up and stop Ling Dong.
But in the next moment, a strange expression appeared on Hei Tian's face, and the worry in his eyes disappeared.
Hei Tian realized that the black dot in the distant sky was approaching them at an extremely fast speed. That speed was comparable to his top speed. And his disciple, Ling Dong, could not possibly have such speed. In other words, the person coming was not Ling Dong!
Hei Tian heaved a sigh of relief when he came to this conclusion.
At the same time, as the black dot approached, Qing Jiu, who had been eagerly waiting at the side, also revealed a surprised expression. "Eh? He's actually driving the precious Cloud Piercing Ship? The person coming is not Ling Dong? "
Qing Jiu's expression revealed a trace of disappointment.
However, the Cloud Piercing Ship that Qing Jiu mentioned immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, including the Grand Elders. This Cloud Piercing Ship was extremely precious. In the entire True Dipper Sect, only Sect Master Shi Fangyuan had a low-grade origin artifact, the Cloud Piercing Ship. The others, including the Grand Elders, did not have one.
Many Elders, including Qing Jiu, stared enviously at the Cloud Piercing Ship that was getting closer and closer. They even wanted to send the Cloud Piercing Ship off with their eyes.
But to everyone's surprise, the expensive Cloud Piercing Ship suddenly slowed down in the air above the True Dipper Sect, revealing its beautiful and sharp white body with a tinge of black.
"Eh? That Cloud Piercing Ship is actually stopping above our True Dipper Sect? Could it be that an important guest is visiting? Sect Leader, there are important guests visiting. Shouldn't we go out and welcome them so that we won't neglect them? Why don't I go out and greet them first to confirm their identities? "Qing Jiu hurriedly suggested as he glanced at the Cloud Piercing Ship hovering above the True Dipper Sect.
Normally, when it came to welcoming guests on behalf of the Sect Leader, the Grand Supreme Elder Erebus would take the lead and lead a few elders and disciples to welcome them. However, Qing Jiu could not wait to exercise his authority as the Grand Supreme Elder and experience what it was like to be a Grand Supreme Elder.
At the side, Huo Lin was enraged. However, before he could do anything, he was stopped by Erebus.
After hearing Qing Jiu's suggestion, Sect Leader Shi still had some integrity. He looked at Great Elder Hei Tian and asked for his opinion. Erebus did not object. He nodded slightly at Sect Leader Shi, tacitly agreeing to Green Vulture's suggestion.
Sect Leader Shi nodded his head and said, "Alright. Elder Qing Jiu, I'll leave it to you to lead four Elders to greet them. Find out who they are and inform me as soon as you confirm their identities!"
"Yes!" Erebus, whose suggestion was approved, was overjoyed. He quickly selected four Elders and they all soared into the sky to greet the guests. However, just as they were in the sky, they suddenly stopped.
"Eh? Why did that Cloud Piercing Ship enter our True Dipper Sect directly? What's wrong with the guarding disciples? Why didn't they inform us before letting the guests in? "One of the Elders could not help but ask.
Similarly, Qing Jiu, who had just flown into the sky to greet the guests, also saw the same thing. His face was filled with confusion! What was going on? Why would the guarding disciples let outsiders in so casually? This was a rule that even the most esteemed guests could not break!
"Eh? Why did the Cloud Piercing Ship fly directly into our True Dipper Sect's sparring field? Why didn't the guarding disciples and Elders stop them? Could it be that the person driving the Cloud Piercing Ship is a disciple of our True Dipper Sect? "Huo Lin, who was waiting beside Erebus, asked curiously.
Hearing Huo Lin's words, Qing Jiu, who was hovering in the sky, laughed. "Junior Brother Huo Lin, it's one thing for you to have a fiery temper, but why is there something wrong with your brain as well? This Cloud Piercing Ship is so precious that even I don't have it, let alone the other disciples of True Dipper Sect! Everyone, no matter who it is, let's go up and welcome them. Perhaps they are a frequent guest of our True Dipper Sect … "
Green Vulture's expression suddenly froze when he heard the word 'frequent guest'. His slightly open mouth froze in place, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant. His previously joyful expression suddenly turned into a dark one!
It wasn't because of anything else, but because the Cloud Piercing Ship that everyone in Green Vulture paid so much attention to had suddenly stopped in the air above the sect's sparring field. The protective array above the Cloud Piercing Ship suddenly receded like the tide, and the esteemed guest controlling the Cloud Piercing Ship leaped out!
The moment this distinguished guest leaped out, everyone was shocked on the spot, and their expressions were somewhat sluggish!
"Disciple Ling Dong greets Honored Master, greets Sect Master!" The guest that Qing Jiu spoke of jumped down from the Cloud Piercing Ship and landed in front of Hei Tian. He knelt on one knee and paid his respects.
"Dong-er?" Hei Tian was also very surprised. However, Hei Tian's mental fortitude was very strong. After a slight pause, he went forward to help Ling Dong up and said with a smile, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!" However, the moment he helped Ling Dong up, Hei Tian was stunned again. Ling Dong's cultivation?
Hei Tian remembered that when Ling Dong left, his cultivation was only at Level Two Star Transformation. Hei Tian estimated that no matter how well Ling Dong mingled outside, breaking through to Level Three Star Transformation within two years would be considered outstanding.
If he broke through to Level Four Star Transformation within two years, that would be heaven-defying. However, Ling Dong's current cultivation was at Level Six Star Transformation. Level Six Star Transformation!
In two years, his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds from Level Two Star Transformation to Level Six Star Transformation. This was simply inconceivable. When he thought of how Ling Dong rode the extremely flashy Cloud Piercing Ship here, Hei Tian immediately thought that Ling Dong must have had a fortuitous encounter in these two years, and it must have been an extraordinary one!
However, other than Hei Tian, not many people paid attention to Ling Dong's heaven-defying improvement in cultivation. Almost everyone's gaze was focused on the Cloud Piercing Ship that Ling Dong had stopped in midair. Even Sect Leader Shi was extremely surprised.
This was a Worldly Spiritual Tool ah. A few hundred years ago, True Dipper Sect had paid a huge price to obtain the Sect Leader's personal Cloud Piercing Ship. Now, Ling Dong had one.
Although everyone was surprised, the one whose expression was the most interesting was Qing Jiu!
Previously, he had wanted to kill Ling Dong and even planned to let his disciple trample on Ling Dong. However, when he took the initiative to welcome an important guest, he did not expect that the person to welcome was Ling Dong's disciple.
This caused Qing Jiu, who was still in the air, to feel his face burning. He felt that he could not get out of this embarrassing situation. Today, he had lost a lot of face.
However, there were some people who wanted to make Qing Jiu's life difficult by touching his sore spot.
"Hehe, Dong-er, you don't know how 'good' Elder Qing Jiu is to you! Just now, he actually received the treatment of an important guest at the mountain gate to welcome you! If you had come a little later, you would have been able to enjoy this treatment! "The Grand Elder Huo Lin's voice was obviously sarcastic, and Ling Dong could hear a trace of gunpowder in it.
"Yo, Qing Jiu, you can't move your legs after seeing the Cloud Piercing Ship? Do you see, this ship belongs to my Senior Hei Tian's precious disciple, Ling Dong. This treasure already has an owner! Qing Jiu ah, it seems like it's not that my brain is not working properly, but that your brain has been clipped by something! " Huo Lin did not let Qing Jiu off. He took the opportunity to continue taunting Qing Jiu who was fawning over him in the wrong place.
As he spoke, Huo Lin continued in a loud voice, "I say, Ling Dong, when you have time, lend this precious Cloud Piercing Ship to your Martial Uncle to play with. Let your Martial Uncle experience the luxury of using a Heaven and Earth Spirit Tool as a ride!"
After Ling Dong agreed, Huo Lin continued brazenly, "Of course, you must be careful when dealing with people like your Martial Uncle Qing Jiu. You must never lend it to him." Huo Lin suddenly whispered into Ling Dong's ear, "Be careful that he doesn't return it after lending it to you!"
Although Huo Lin purposely spoke softly, Huo Lin's voice was extremely loud. Everyone, including the disciples who were waiting to watch a good show, heard it clearly. In an instant, Qing Jiu's old face turned red with embarrassment!
"Huo Lin, don't slander me! You've gone too far!" Qing Jiu could not help but scold.
Huo Lin did not even look at Qing Jiu as he scolded, "Who was the one who shamelessly rushed to greet the distinguished guest just now? Originally, greeting the distinguished guest should be Senior Brother Hei Tian's job, but I didn't expect you …"
Hearing Huo Lin endlessly mention the embarrassing incident of him fawning over Qing Jiu, Qing Jiu's old face became even more embarrassed. He directly landed in front of Sect Leader Shi and interrupted Huo Lin's taunts with a cold shout. He said to Sect Leader Shi, "Sect Leader, Ling Dong has arrived. For the sake of time, let's have Ling Dong fight my third disciple, Ren Henshui!"
With no other choice, Qing Jiu used a great method to divert attention. When he said this, he glared fiercely at Ling Dong and Huo Lin and scolded inwardly, "Who asked you to be so smug? I'll make sure you cry later!"
While speaking, Qing Jiu also transmitted a message to his third disciple, Ren Henshui, who was sitting cross-legged in the center of the arena, "Henshui, in a while, let Master trample on this brat. Make him as embarrassed as he can be! Make sure to avenge Master properly! "
"Yes, Disciple understands!" Ren Henshui, who was sitting cross-legged in the center of the arena and exuding a cold aura, nodded slightly. A trace of malevolence appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Ling Dong, are you injured? Can you join the battle?" At this moment, Sect Head Shi, who had discovered Ling Dong's cultivation base, asked Ling Dong in shock.
"Replying to Sect Leader, this disciple is completely fine. I can fight!" The moment Ling Dong replied, his Divine Thought moved. With a wave of his hand, he kept the Cloud Piercing Boat that made the eyes of all the disciples, elders, and even the Grand Elders envious so much that their eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets. Then, he turned around and walked towards the arena.
"Dong 'er, be careful!"
"Dong 'er, you have to fight well in this battle. Otherwise, Senior Brother's face will be trampled under Qing Jiu's feet!" After Hei Tian's instructions, Huo Lin walked forward and directly put his arm around Ling Dong's shoulder, deliberately reminding him.
Ling Dong frowned and could not help but ask, "Martial Uncle, what's going on?"
When Ling Dong asked, Huo Lin naturally explained everything that had happened in detail, including Qing Jiu's sinister intentions.
"Is that so?" After hearing Huo Lin's explanation, Ling Dong's eyes narrowed slightly and emitted a frightening cold light, "Martial Uncle, don't worry!" If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
