When Duan Lingtian found out about He Zhong's cultivation, He Zhong was also looking at Duan Lingtian with particularly complicated eyes.
The reason why he was able to break through to the 'Sacred Realm' so quickly was partly because of Duan Lingtian.
The reason why I say it is because of Duan Lingtian is because nearly three months ago, he heard that Duan Lingtian had broken through to the 'Sacred Realm', and he suffered a great blow because of this, which caused him to feel pressure.
As the saying goes, 'When there is pressure, there is motivation.' Under this invisible pressure, He Zhong successfully broke through to the 'Sacred Realm' a month ago.
After breaking through to the Saint Realm, he also officially joined the sect of the deputy sect master ‘Zhong Huo’.
At this time, a group of outer disciples realized that He Zhong was not a disciple secretly accepted by Liu Huan, but a disciple of the deputy sect leader Zhong Huo, and a direct disciple.
However, due to the shock caused by 'Duan Lingtian' to them, they had gained a certain degree of immunity, so they were not too shocked by this incident.
After all, Duan Lingtian directly became Elder Bailihong’s ‘junior brother’!
Who is Elder Bailihong?
The recognized first inner sect elder of Yueyao Sect!
His status is so high that he seems to surpass several deputy sect leaders.
In addition, even the several Saint Realm experts in the Yueyao Sect, including the sect leader, were polite when facing Elder Bailihong and treated him as equals.
From the moment Duan Lingtian was recognized as his 'junior brother' by Bai Lihong, Duan Lingtian's 'seniority' in the Yueyao Sect had been raised unconsciously.
Even He Zhong's master, Zhong Huo, one of the deputy masters of the Yueyao Sect, had to call him "Junior Brother" for Bai Lihong's sake when facing Duan Lingtian.
"I just hope that uncle can completely give up the idea of being an enemy of Duan Lingtian, instead of trying to deal with me."
He Zhongli secretly said.
When he heard that Bailihong recognized Duan Lingtian as his 'junior brother', the last trace of resentment towards Duan Lingtian that he had in his heart disappeared.
As for what happened before, he completely forgot about it and no longer cared about it.
Because he knows that if he takes it to heart, he will only be troubled in the end.
This time, it was precisely because of Duan Lingtian that he was able to break through to the 'Sacred Realm' faster than he imagined. In his heart, he was still grateful to Duan Lingtian to a certain extent.
"He Zhong, congratulations."
Duan Lingtian took the initiative to say hello to He Zhong through true energy transmission.
When He Zhong heard Duan Lingtian's words, he was stunned.
Duan Lingtian's 'congratulations' clearly meant something. All he could think of was that he had broken through to the 'sacred realm'.
However, so far, it seems that only he and his master know that he has broken through to the ‘holy realm’, right?
To the outside world, he has never disclosed his current cultivation level.
But now, Duan Lingtian saw through it at a glance. Suddenly, he felt like he had no way to hide in front of Duan Lingtian.
"You...see it?"
Taking a deep breath, He Zhong still couldn't help but asked with his true energy.
Duan Lingtian did not respond to this, but just gave He Zhong a smile, a smile that seemed mysterious and unpredictable in He Zhong's eyes.
At this moment, in He Zhong's heart, Duan Lingtian's danger level increased by several levels.
Soon, the other two elders of the inner sect, who were acting as the patrol officers of the 'Hunting Assessment' this time, also took the initiative to greet Bailihong with an extremely enthusiastic attitude.
"Elder Baili."
At this time, a group of inner disciples, including He Zhong, also greeted Bailihong respectfully.
"Junior Brother Duan."
Soon, the two inner sect elders looked at Duan Lingtian and greeted him actively.
This scene made a group of inner disciples look envious and jealous, but they were helpless. Who made Duan Lingtian not only talented in martial arts, but also blessed with good fortune?
Even if you recognize a 'senior brother' like Bai Lihong, you can walk away in the Yueyao Sect!
"Let's go."
As Bailihong opened his mouth, Zhong Huo gave an order, and the group walked out of the Yueyao Sect's mountain gate in a mighty manner.
After leaving the mountain gate of Yueyao Sect, everyone jumped into the air and headed to the place where the 'hunting assessment' was held.
Shortly after a group of people left, within the inner gate area of Yueyao Sect, there was a spacious mansion.
Liu Huan sat in front of the stone table in the courtyard, reaching out and tapping the table gently, "At this time, Duan Lingtian should have also participated in the 'hunting assessment', right?"
"This is a good opportunity... I just hope that the Yinshan Black Market will not disappoint me again."
While Liu Huan murmured, his eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"Also, there's that 'Fang Tao'... After so many years, it's time for him and me to be completely settled! I thought that even if I let him live, he wouldn't be able to cause any trouble, but I didn't expect that he would accept Duan Lingtian
Such a monster is my disciple!"
Liu Huan's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
After a moment, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"Master!"
But at this moment, a figure came towards him, it was 'Su Qi'.
Su Qi also held a plate in her hand with a bowl of soup on it, "This is the 'Qing Jade Soup' that my disciple made for Master. Master, please eat it while it's hot."
"You still have intentions, like that evil disciple Zhou Qi, but you have never cooked a bowl of soup for me."
Liu Huan was still very satisfied with the disciple in front of him.
Since joining his disciples, not only have I practiced hard, but the most important thing is that I personally cook a bowl of soup for him every few days, and I never bring the same dish every time.
After drinking the soup handed over by Su Qi, Liu Huan's eyes flashed and a new idea came to his mind.
"Su Qi, you go out with my teacher."
Liu Huan said to Su Qi.
"yes."
Su Qi didn't even ask where Liu Huan was going and agreed directly.
"You don't even ask where my teacher will take you?"
Liu Huan asked.
"Wherever the master wants to take the disciples, the disciples will go. Even if it is Daoshan Volcano, the disciple will not frown."
Su Qi said seriously.
"Haha... Okay, okay! The most wrong thing I, Liu Huan, have done in my life is to accept that evil disciple Zhou Qi; the most right thing I have done is to accept you, a good disciple."
Liu Huan laughed and was very satisfied with Su Qi's answer.
"Let's go! I will take you back to Qiushan City."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Huan walked out the door.
Qiushan City!
When Liu Huan's words reached Su Qi's ears, they also made Su Qi's heart tremble.
He was vaguely aware of what Liu Huan wanted to do here.
He also realized that all of this was closely related to Duan Lingtian's 'rise'.
However, after taking a deep breath, Su Qi still followed Liu Huan.
Some time ago, the news that Duan Lingtian became the younger brother of Yueyao Sect’s inner sect elder ‘Bai Lihong’ reached the Lord’s Mansion of Qiushan City.
The city lord of Deqiu Mountain City, Fang Tao, was stunned for a long time before he finally came back to his senses.
"He... was actually recognized as his junior brother by Elder Baili?"
Fang Bao was shocked and surprised at the same time.
By the end, my face was filled with ecstatic smiles, and I even shed two lines of tears when I laughed at the end.
Those were tears of joy.
As the outer deacon of the Yueyao Sect, Fang Bao was also a disciple of the Yueyao Sect, so he naturally knew who Elder Bailihong was.
That is a being that even the leader of the Yueyao Sect must treat with courtesy!
For him in the past, Elder Bailihong was a majestic mountain that he wanted to look up to and could not be crossed.
In fact, when he first met Elder Bailihong, he did not dare to speak out loud, for fear of making Elder Bailihong unhappy.
And now, he learned that his disciple ‘Duan Lingtian’ was recognized as ‘junior brother’ by Elder Bailihong?
How could this not surprise him?
"Has he broken through to the holy realm?"
After some time, Fang Bao received another message, also from the Yueyao Sect.
This news is about Duan Lingtian’s breakthrough to the ‘Sacred Realm’.
"No wonder Baili Presbyterian would recognize him as his 'junior brother'. It turns out that he has long seen his extraordinary talent... It's ridiculous that I wanted to accept him as a disciple before and let him recognize me as 'master'! Ridiculous! Ridiculous.
!”
To the end of muttering to himself, Fang Tao's face was filled with self-mockery.
However, he was more happy for Duan Lingtian.
"With Elder Bailihong as his 'backer', Liu Huan should not dare to touch him easily... and Ling Yun and Xiong Hu have him taking care of them, so I think they will be fine."
Thinking of this, Fang Tao breathed a sigh of relief.
In the following days, Fang Bao was in a good mood, and it seemed that the haze that had accumulated in his heart over the years had dissipated a lot.
Of course, such days did not last long.
"Fang Taobao!!"
As a thunderous sound came over the Qiushan City Lord's Mansion, Fang Bao's face changed drastically as he was practicing in his room.
This voice was very familiar to him, so familiar that it was impossible to forget it.
"Liu Huan!"
Taking a deep breath, Fang Bao's face was extremely ugly. He never expected that Liu Huan, who had not come to him for many years and trampled on his master, would come to his door at this time.
However, he also vaguely realized that Liu Huan's sudden visit was most likely related to Duan Lingtian.
Perhaps Duan Lingtian put pressure on him.
Thinking of this, Fang Tao's face softened a bit, and a happy smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Liu Huan, are you scared too?"
When Fang Bao walked out of the room, jumped into the air, and reached the high altitude, he found that Liu Huan was not the only one coming this time, but there was also someone very familiar to him.
"Su Qi."
Looking at Su Qi standing next to Liu Huan in the air, Fang Tao's heart trembled inexplicably.
Su Qi was originally his most valued disciple. She was extremely talented. She was the most talented among the young geniuses that appeared in his Qiushan City before Duan Lingtian appeared.
Because of this, he spent a lot of effort on Su Qi.
But I didn't expect that in the end, I would make a "wedding dress" for Liu Huan in vain.
Now, seeing Su Qi standing in the sky, he also realized that Su Qi had broken through to the 'sacred realm', otherwise it would be impossible to ignore the 'forbidden air formation' above Qiushan City.
Qiushan City's forbidden air formation restricts all martial arts and Taoist cultivators below the 'Sacred Realm'.
Only those who have reached the holy realm or above can fly in the air and stand in the sky.
