And He Zhong responded quickly. Ten days later, there will be a battle in the martial arts field.

"Ten days? How long does it take for him to prepare?"

After hearing He Zhong's response, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but frown.

In fact, it was not only Duan Lingtian who was confused about this, but also a group of other outer disciples who were waiting to watch the fun.

"Senior Brother He Zhong, will you fight Senior Brother Duan Lingtian ten days later? Isn't it too late?"

"Perhaps Senior Brother He Zhong's martial arts skills are approaching a breakthrough recently."

"possible."

"It seems that Senior Brother He Zhong is also very jealous of Senior Brother Duan Lingtian. He took the initiative to send out a battle invitation and delayed for so long before fighting Senior Brother Duan Lingtian."

"This is not surprising. When Senior Brother Duan Lingtian killed Feng Fan, it was just a blink of an eye... Senior Brother Duan Lingtian's strength is definitely no less than that of Senior Brother He Zhong."

"That's right! Even for Senior Brother He Zhong, it is almost impossible to kill Feng Fan like that in a life-and-death duel."

…

Nowadays, a group of outer disciples have almost blind worship of Duan Lingtian's strength.

Although He Zhong is the 66th strongest person in the "Earth Ranking" and the third strongest person in the outer sect of Yueyao Sect, they are more optimistic about Duan Lingtian when it comes to the battle between He Zhong and Duan Lingtian.

Not only because Duan Lingtian killed Feng Fan a month ago, but also because Duan Lingtian defeated an inner disciple a month ago, and he defeated him face to face.

That battle could be said to have greatly affected their outer sect's reputation.

What an honor it is for an outer disciple to defeat an inner disciple?

"Have you so much confidence in me?"

When Duan Lingtian knew that a group of outer disciples had full confidence in him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that he was planning to make another bet.

Now it seems that even if he wants to make a bet, no one will be willing to place the bet.

Of course, Duan Lingtian also knows that in this ordinary sparring match, no one will usually set up a gambling bureau, and even if someone does set up a gambling bureau, no one will place bets.

Because the fight will not affect one's life, it can be done in secret. You let me, and I let you.

The two parties in the negotiation can definitely join forces with the banker in the gambling game to make a good profit.

No one is a fool, and naturally they will not place bets in such a bet.

"Ling Yun and Xiong Hu are both in retreat?"

Duan Lingtian went to find Ling Yun and Xiong Hu, but found that they were both in seclusion, "I didn't see them when Feng Fan and I had a life-and-death showdown last time... Could it be that they haven't come out since the last time they were in seclusion, right?

"

Duan Lingtian came to Ling Yun and the two mainly because he wanted to return the merit points that his teacher ‘Fang Tao’ had given him for safekeeping to Ling Yun and Xiong Hu.

He planned to give each person 50,000 yuan.

Give all the 100,000 merit points given by Fang Bao to the two of them.

After all, he doesn't lack any merit points now.

However, since both of them were in retreat, he could only wait until next time.

Just when Duan Lingtian was about to return to the second floor of Qibao Exquisite Tower to practice for a month, an uninvited guest came to his door.

"It's you?"

This uninvited guest is no stranger to Duan Lingtian, having met him once before.

He was one of the two big men from the mansion of the great elder of the outer sect, Dongfang Quan.

"Duan Lingtian, Elder Dongfang heard that you were released from seclusion and asked you to come to the mansion to gather together."

The big man said straight to the point.

"Elder Dongfang invites me to a party?"

Duan Lingtian was stunned and couldn't figure out what Dongfang Quan wanted to do with him. After all, he and Dongfang Quan had only made a small deal, a fair deal.

Apart from that, he has nothing to do with Dongfang Quan.

"please."

The big man looked at Duan Lingtian with an attitude of 'If you don't leave by yourself, I will help you leave'.

"Um."

Although he didn't know what Dongfang Quan wanted to do with him, Duan Lingtian did not refuse.

He is still in the outer sect of Yueyao Sect, so it is not easy to offend Dongfang Quan. He is still the great elder of the outer sect, so if you want to deal with him, it will only take a matter of minutes.

In fact, Duan Lingtian was still a little curious, so why did Dongfang Quan find him?

Arriving at Dongfang Quan's mansion again, under the leadership of the big man, Duan Lingtian met Dongfang Quan again.

When he saw Dongfang Quan, he was sipping fragrant tea in the pavilion.

"sit."

After Dongfang Quan asked Duan Lingtian to sit down, he lightly glanced at the big man who brought Duan Lingtian. For a moment, the big man also retreated knowingly.

"Are you curious what I want to do with you?"

Dongfang Quan asked.

"Um."

Duan Lingtian nodded, he was indeed very curious.

"I heard that you accepted He Zhong's battle invitation?"

Dongfang Quan asked again.

"yes."

Duan Lingtian nodded, "What? Is there any problem?"

"Do you know He Zhong's identity?"

Dongfang Quan asked.

"If nothing unexpected happens, he should also be a direct disciple of an inner sect elder, right?"

Duan Lingtian guessed.

Although there are no rumors about He Zhong's background in the outer sect, Duan Lingtian knows that He Zhong's background is certainly not simple.

Just like Feng Fan before, no one knew that he had an inner sect elder as his master.

"He Zhong's master is the deputy sect leader."

Dongfang Quan looked at Duan Lingtian deeply and said.

"Deputy master?"

When Duan Lingtian heard this, he was immediately shocked.

It has not been a day or two since he came to Yueyao Sect, so he naturally knows what the deputy sect leader of Yueyao Sect represents... Although he is not a 'sacred realm', he is still half a step into the holy realm. His strength is only that of the sect leader and a few others.

Under a strong man in the holy realm.

He Zhong is actually the direct disciple of a deputy sect leader of Yueyao Sect?

"good."

Dongfang Quan nodded.

"Although this news is surprising, it doesn't seem to mean anything to me, right? The battle invitation sent by He Zhong to me is just an ordinary battle invitation, not a life and death battle invitation."

Duan Lingtian said with an indifferent expression.

"If you really think so, you are totally wrong... Although I don't know why He Zhong's message to you is not a life and death battle message, but I know that it is definitely not that simple for him to send a battle message to you."

Dongfang Quan said.

"It's not that simple? I don't know him. How can he still have a grudge against me?"

Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled.

"He has no grudge against you, but what about you and his uncle?"

Dongfang Quan asked again.

"His uncle? Who?"

Duan Lingtian looked confused.

"Liu Huan!"

Under Duan Lingtian's puzzled gaze, Dongfang Quan spat out his name twice, which shocked Duan Lingtian, "Liu Huan? Are you sure?"

"This is not a secret among the high-level circles of the sect."

Dongfang Quan said: "You come from Qiushan City City Lord's Palace, and you are the disciple of Qiushan City City Lord 'Fang Tao'... then Liu Huan will definitely not let you go. Therefore, I am looking for you to remind you that you must

Be careful with He Zhong."
