Today is the day when Duan Lingtian and Li Jie have an appointment.
Early in the morning, in a clean and tidy room.
Duan Lingtian stood up from the tub and walked out slowly.
He also used up the last portion of the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid.
Gently trembling his sore and numb body, feeling the power contained in it, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Duan Lingtian's mouth.
This month's hard work has not been in vain!
After a month of hard training, the childlike look on Duan Lingtian's handsome face faded a bit.
The long period of body tempering made Duan Lingtian's body strong and strong.
Wearing a dark purple tights, he highlighted his perfect figure.
Compared to the sick man who had not completed body tempering and became a warrior more than a month ago, he seemed to be a completely different person.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door.
"Master, are you up?"
The melodious voice of an oriole made Duan Lingtian's calm expression flash with tenderness.
After getting dressed, Duan Lingtian walked out from behind the screen, walked slowly to the door, and reached out to open it.
The door was opened, and soft and warm sunlight poured in, shining warmly on Duan Lingtian's body.
Outside the door, the slim girl and Duan Lingtian looked at each other and lowered their heads in panic, with a bit of rosiness on their faces.
The girl wore a light green dress today, which perfectly highlighted her delicate body that was beginning to take shape.
A pair of green buds waiting to bloom, invisibly releasing the temptation of youth.
On the small waist that Yingying grasped, there was a light blue belt, fluttering in the wind...
Looking at the girl outside the door, Duan Lingtian was lost for a moment.
"Ke'er, you got up so early."
After coming back to his senses, Duan Lingtian smiled slightly.
I sighed in my heart, in the past month, the figure of the girl who has completed body tempering has become more and more hot.
When Duan Lingtian looked the girl up and down, the girl's face turned red as if she was about to bleed.
"Master, my wife said she would go there first and asked me to wake you up and go there together. I didn't expect that the master had already gotten up early."
The girl blinked her autumn eyes, her eyebrows curved into a crescent shape, and nodded slightly.
The girl's words made Duan Lingtian smile bitterly.
Do you really think he is still the guy who likes to sleep in?
"Ke'er, you... have broken through to the second level of body tempering?"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian glanced at the girl with slight surprise and found that the girl had made a breakthrough.
"Thanks to the medicine the young master prepared for me, otherwise Ke'er wouldn't have entered the country so quickly."
The girl's autumn eyes moved slightly, her eyebrows raised slightly, her delicate chin was gently tapped, and a touching smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Medicine is only the next best thing. The most important thing is that you have great talent, Ke'er. It seems that "Ice Divine Sword Technique" is very suitable for you... Ke'er, you practice sword cultivation, and you must have a sword. In the afternoon
I'll take you out for a walk and buy you a sword."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled.
"Master, didn't you say that there are no matching sword skills in the body-tempering realm part of "Ice Divine Sword Art"?"
The girl blinked her autumn eyes.
"Master will teach you other sword skills first. Do you want to learn them?"
Duan Lingtian asked with a smile.
"think!"
The girl nodded quickly, fearing that Duan Lingtian would regret it.
"Ke'er, let's go there too."
He stepped out of the room, closed the door with his backhand, stretched out his hand naturally, and held the girl's tender little hand. The whole movement was smooth and smooth, as if he had been trained countless times.
"Well, let's not keep Madam waiting too long."
The girl had a happy smile on her face, and she squeezed the boy's hand with a little force.
The young girl, who looked like a golden child, walked out of the courtyard holding hands and walked to the Li family's martial arts field.
Along the way, I attracted many envious and jealous eyes.
Some of the young disciples of the Li family looked at Duan Lingtian and almost burst into flames, wishing to push Duan Lingtian away and replace him.
There were also some girls who looked at Ke'er who was as beautiful as a little fairy with jealous faces.
…
The Li family's martial arts arena is a huge bluestone venue.
Outside the venue, on a slightly higher ground, there was now a surging crowd. These people were all descendants of the Li family, and they gathered together to make a fuss, and the momentum soared into the sky.
"It's just a fight between two teenagers. Almost all the elders of the family are here. It's such a big battle!"
"Yes, even several elders who are responsible for managing the family market in Qingfeng Town are back. Today's battle can be compared to an adult ceremony."
"In my opinion, the main reason is that the seventh elder invited the family head and the first elder to be witnesses for today's battle. The family head and the first elder are both here, so it's not a bad idea for these elders to come."
…
There were some tables and chairs on the high platform in front of the martial arts arena, and many people were already sitting there, sipping the fragrant tea on the table.
These people are the senior members of the Li family.
The head of the Li family, ‘Li Nanfeng’, sits in the middle position.
Except for one seat next to him that was empty, the other seats were full of people. Behind these elders of the Li family, there were more or less a number of teenagers and girls standing.
As the ninth elder of the Li family, Li Rou sat at the very edge with a calm expression, her expression unchanged even as Mount Tai collapsed in front of her.
"Ninth Elder, you are so calm."
There was an eighth elder between the seventh elder Li Kun and Li Rou. He turned his head and glanced at Li Rou and smiled faintly.
He looks like he has a winning ticket.
Li Rou didn't seem to hear what he said and ignored it at all, which made the eighth elder in the middle couldn't help but have a weird smile on his face.
"snort!"
Li Kun was extremely angry and laughed instead.
He wanted to see how long this Li Rou could keep pretending.
Today, his eldest son Li Jie will definitely destroy Duan Lingtian and avenge his failed younger son.
"Great Elder!"
"Great Elder!"
…
At this time, the flow of people in the distance got out of the way.
Accompanied by waves of awe-inspiring shouts of respect, an old figure stepped forward and stepped onto the high platform.
It is none other than the eldest elder of the Li family, Li Huo!
"Great Elder!"
Including the head of the family, Li Nanfeng, all the elders of the Li family stood up and saluted the old man respectfully.
This old man is not only the most powerful being in the Li family, but also a ninth-grade alchemist with a high status.
In Yunxiao Continent, only those who have reached the level of alchemist can be considered a real alchemist.
If you want to become an alchemist, you need to meet extremely demanding conditions.
It can be said that not one of a thousand Dan Condensing Realm warriors can become an alchemist.
Each of the three major families in Qingfeng Town has a ninth-grade alchemist.
Only the alchemist of the Li family is one of their own. The alchemists of the other two families were hired by them from outside with huge sums of money and may leave at any time.
The old man nodded slightly, sat next to the head of the family, Li Nanfeng, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
"Xiaojie, since the great elders are here, you should leave first."
Seventh Elder Li Kun said, Li Jie, who had been standing behind him, nodded, stepped out, and entered the spacious martial arts arena.
"Even the Great Elder is here, and Li Jie is also on the stage. Why hasn't Duan Lingtian come yet?"
"This Duan Lingtian is really a big arrogant person!"
"Isn't he afraid to come?"
…
The children of the Li family around the martial arts arena were talking one after another, and some even sneered at Duan Lingtian.
"The Ninth Elder and the First Elder are here, why hasn't your son Duan Lingtian arrived yet? Isn't it because you don't dare to come?"
On the high platform, the seventh elder Li Kun asked loudly and deliberately.
"Seventh Elder, don't worry. Since my son has agreed, he will come naturally."
Li Rou snorted softly.
"Ninth Elder, I think today's battle is completely unnecessary. Otherwise, you should just admit defeat on your son's behalf, lest your son be injured and the harmony between you and the Seventh Elder be damaged."
The sixth elder 'Li Ping', who has always had a good relationship with Li Kun, a middle-aged man with a scar on his face, said calmly.
"Sixth Elder, according to what you said, do you think Li Jie will win?"
Fifth Elder Li Ting couldn't help but speak.
"This is a generally accepted fact."
Li Ping smiled.
"Then I will make a bet with the Sixth Elder... If Li Jie wins, I will lose five hundred taels of silver to you, but if Duan Lingtian wins, you will also lose five hundred taels of silver to me. How about that?"
Li Ting took a deep look at Li Ping and said slowly.
The elder Li's monthly salary was only a dozen taels of silver, so Li Ting spent several years of his salary on gambling at once!
The senior officials of the Li family present, including the head of the family, Li Nanfeng, all looked at Li Ting in surprise, not expecting him to be so confident in Duan Lingtian.
Even the Great Elder Li Huo opened his eyes and took a deep look at Li Ting.
Hearing Li Ting's words, Li Ping's eyes lit up.
He was originally a compulsive gambler, and in his opinion, Li Ting was giving him money.
It's just that he can't get out five hundred taels now.
Almost all his money was thrown into gambling houses.
"Why, the Sixth Elder is afraid?"
Seeing Li Ping's silence, Li Ting smiled.
Li Ping's face turned red and he turned his head to look at the seventh elder Li Kun beside him.
"Sixth Elder, I will lend you five hundred taels of silver. In addition, I will take out another five hundred taels of silver to bet with the Fifth Elder. Will the Fifth Elder accompany me?"
Li Kun saw Li Ping's difficulty and looked at Li Ting with burning eyes.
Li Ting frowned.
Although five hundred taels was only his contribution for a few years, but including his daily expenses, he only had about eight hundred taels of silver saved in his hands over the years.
Li Kun was able to save a thousand taels in savings and was considered wealthy among the Li family and elders.
It can be said that Li Kun went bankrupt this time and fought with his last resort!
