However, the old woman was not in a hurry to take action.
Because she knew that since Duan Lingtian appeared under her nose, it also meant that Duan Lingtian would not be able to escape and would die sooner or later.
If that's the case, why is she anxious?
However, the old woman was not in a hurry, but Wang Qiling, the governor of Pingshan County beside her, was extremely anxious.
Of course, he didn't dare to rush the old woman now, so he could only worry on his own.
"Duan Lingtian is here?!"
The elders who followed the governor of Pingshan County on this trip to pay tribute could not help but smile bitterly:
"I originally thought that this time Yang Jin could get the 'second' place in the Sixteen County Martial Arts Competition and win two big Rodan for our Pingshan County. But now it seems that there is no hope."
"Duan Lingtian has appeared...Yang Jin is destined to be ranked third in the martial arts competition among the sixteen counties."
"With the appearance of Duan Lingtian, there were only two big Rodan pills left... This Duan Lingtian came at the right time!"
…
Although the elders of Pingshan County were helpless, they also knew that they were unable to change anything.
"This Duan Lingtian...it's not a good time to come, but I chose this time to come!"
Yang Jin, who was sitting aside and had recovered from some injuries, saw Duan Lingtian for the first time, but when he looked at Duan Lingtian above the Doului, his eyes were full of hostility.
The reason why he is hostile to Duan Lingtian is precisely because when Duan Lingtian comes, he can only be ranked "third" in the martial arts competition among the sixteen counties.
In this way, not only will Pingshan County's rewards from Prince Qin's Mansion be reduced, but his rewards from Prince Qin's Mansion will also be reduced.
Of course he won't be happy.
The situation in Lingfeng County is similar to that in Pingshan County.
Several elders from Lingfeng County who came with County Governor Chu Tingxuan to worship, after seeing Duan Lingtian appear, couldn't help but sigh:
"Three great rod pills... are about to turn into two. This Duan Lingtian is actually here."
"Maybe...this is 'fate'."
Chu Tingxuan shook his head, "However, two big Rodan pills are not bad... I should be satisfied."
"He is 'Duan Lingtian'?"
Standing next to Chu Tingxuan, Chu Yu, who was dressed in a heroic manner, was also focusing on Duan Lingtian at this time, and his eyes were filled with colorful ripples.
Although, she is usually carefree, just like a man.
But, she is still a woman at heart.
In the past, she only admired her eldest brother, Chu Yan, and felt that only a man as outstanding as her eldest brother, or a man even more outstanding than her eldest brother, could be worthy of her.
It wasn't until she heard about Duan Lingtian's deeds in Jiuyou County that she realized:
In the area controlled by Prince Qin's Mansion, there was actually a man who was more outstanding than her eldest brother.
Although, Yang Jin from Pingshan County is pretty good.
However, Yang Jin was more than twenty years older than her eldest brother, and his talent was far inferior to that of her eldest brother, so she didn't like him at all.
And Duan Lingtian, even if he is as old as Yang Jin, in terms of talent, he is not comparable to her elder brother.
At that time, although she had never met Duan Lingtian, she was attracted to Duan Lingtian.
This sounds ridiculous, but it is true.
A woman who has been very strong since she was a child and has never been attracted to any man. She even thought that she would die alone because there was no man to make her attracted... Suddenly, she learned that there was someone in the area of Prince Qin's Mansion.
She was immediately attracted by such an outstanding existence.
Of course, if she sees Duan Lingtian and his appearance and temperament are not to her liking, she may be dissatisfied.
This is somewhat similar to the "death in the light" between male and female netizens in Duan Lingtian's previous life on Earth. They chatted well with each other on the Internet, but once they met in real life, they found that they didn't like each other, so they deleted each other and parted ways.
But now, seeing Duan Lingzhen's perfect facial features and elegant temperament, Chu Yu could feel that her heartbeat was accelerating...
Afterwards, my heart felt like it was about to jump out of my chest.
"I, Chu Yu, will never marry except him in this lifetime!"
Chu Yu looked at Duan Lingtian and secretly made a lifelong vow in her heart.
Before meeting Duan Lingtian, Chu Yu was only a little attracted to Duan Lingtian because he had not met Duan Lingtian in person and only heard about Duan Lingtian's deeds and talents...
Now, seeing Duan Lingtian in person, her heart completely sank.
Sometimes, emotional things are so wonderful.
Duan Lingtian now has no idea that he has captured a heart without any knowledge.
Moreover, it is the heart of Chu Yan's biological sister who is now confronting him and is about to fight him.
If he knew, he would definitely feel speechless and helpless.
After all, now he has two wives, a confidante, and Murong Bing, who is not called husband and wife, but is actually married, which is already giving him a headache.
How can he think about provoking other women?
"Damn it! Why is he here?"
Over at Luofu County, both the Luofu County Sheriff and Luofu County's trump card, 'Xing Dong', looked very ugly.
If Duan Lingtian hadn't come, it would have been almost certain that Xing Dong would be ranked tenth in the Sixteen County Military Competition.
But now, Duan Lingtian is here, and Xing Dong is destined to be squeezed out of the top ten. Not only will Xing Dong not get any rewards from the Qin Palace, Luofu County will even be punished by the Qin Palace for this.
In the next ten years, many more high-grade immortal stones will be handed over to the Qin Palace.
Different from Pingshan County, Lingfeng County and Luofu County, the atmosphere in the auditorium was depressing.
Over in Jiuyou County, the originally oppressive and depressing atmosphere was swept away, replaced by excitement and surprise.
"Haha... Duan Lingtian is finally here!"
The governor of Jiuyou County, Tian Jiyu, laughed heartily without any image, showing his white teeth, as happy as a child.
"I knew he wouldn't break the promise easily."
The face of the inner palace elder ‘Zheng Qiu’ was also full of smiles.
"Humph! I guess he still has some conscience."
Pang Bing snorted coldly.
And everyone else in Jiuyou County is also very happy now.
VIP auditorium.
"No wonder he dared to make such a bet with Zhou An, the deputy leader of the Poison King Sect, and place such a losing bet... It turns out that he himself is Duan Lingtian!"
"Unexpectedly, the Feilong Sect's Tianling enshrinement turned out to be Jiuyou County's trump card, 'Duan Lingtian'... This time, Zhou An, the deputy master of the Poison King Sect, suffered a big loss!"
"Half a million high-grade immortal stones, betting on someone else's fifty thousand high-grade immortal stones... I thought he would win for sure. But now it seems that he is destined to steal the chicken but lose the rice!"
"Half a million high-grade immortal stones... Such a large number of high-grade immortal stones, even if the Poison King Sect takes them out in one go, their vitality will be severely damaged, right?"
"This time, the Poison King Sect is completely defeated!"
…
There were waves of discussion, and all eyes fell on the deputy master of the Poison King Sect, ‘Zhou An’.
These eyes, looking at Zhou An now, are like looking at an 'idiot'.
Now, almost everyone in the VIP audience has realized:
From the moment the Tianling priest from the Feilong Sect agreed to Zhou An's bet, Zhou An fell into the trap of the Tianling priest.
Because, the person worshiped by Tianling is ‘Duan Lingtian’ himself.
Since it is Duan Lingtian himself, it is not his decision whether to show up to participate in the Sixteen County Martial Arts Competition?
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The deputy sect leader of the Feilong Sect, Huang Guangji, looked at Zhou An and laughed heartily, "Zhou An, half a million high-grade immortal stones... That's half a million high-grade immortal stones! You, think about how to deal with the leader of your Poison King Sect.
Have you confessed?"
"This Zhou An, when he saw Tian Ling enshrining him before, he seemed to be looking at an 'idiot'... Now it seems that he is the real idiot!"
"He thought he was sure to win, but he didn't expect that Tian Ling Chongqing is Duan Lingtian, and he can decide the outcome of this bet by himself! The role played by Tian Ling Chongqing is similar to that of a crook who is not a crook."
"Now, Zhou An's heart is probably more uncomfortable than eating a fly, right?"
"That's natural! That's half a million high-grade immortal stones!"
…
A group of people from the Feilong Sect all looked at Zhou An with amusement on their faces.
At this moment, they seemed to have completely forgotten:
Previously, when the Tian Ling priest from their Feilong Sect agreed to Zhou An's bet, they looked at the Tian Ling priest with suspicion, thinking that the Tian Ling priest was just giving away immortal stones.
Goodbye Zhou.
A group of people in the VIP auditorium looked at Zhou An with a hint of pity.
The group of people from the Poison King Sect just looked at their deputy sect leader ‘Zhou An’ without saying a word.
If Zhou An was not the deputy sect leader of their Poison King Sect, and was an ordinary disciple, he would have been scolded as an 'idiot' by them.
Zhou An stood there, his expression extremely ugly.
He also remembers:
The low-grade alchemy immortal master from the Feilong Sect just now worshiped him. When he agreed to his bet, he seemed to see his 50,000 high-grade immortal stones returning to his arms...
He never dreamed:
The low-grade alchemy immortal master of Feilong Sect is worshiped, and he is Jiuyou County’s trump card ‘Duan Lingtian’.
"No! It doesn't count! This bet doesn't count!"
"He is Duan Lingtian himself. He can decide the outcome of this bet with just one thought... He is cheating! He is cheating!"
"This bet is void, it must be void!"
…
After a moment, Zhou An came back to his senses. Faced with the pitying looks of a group of people in the VIP audience, he was so stimulated that he yelled like crazy.
Five hundred thousand high-grade fairy stones.
If the Poison King Sect loses half a million high-grade immortal stones because of him, even if he is the biological brother of the leader of the Poison King Sect, when he returns to the Poison King Sect, even if he does not die, he will still have to shed his skin!
The elders of the Poison King Sect, the worshipers, and the two Supreme Elders whose strength is not weaker than his brother will never let him go easily!
"snort!"
It wasn't until the third prince in Prince Qin's Mansion who had not yet had time to return behind the curtain snorted coldly that Zhou An was so frightened that he finally woke up.
