After Duan Lingtian left the Mo family's mansion with the little golden mouse, he left Pingyang County and returned to the imperial city.
To him, the Mo family's affairs were just a farce.
Three million taels of gold is nothing to him who has tens of millions of taels of gold.
Since the eldest young master of the Mo family has provoked him, he can only count himself unlucky!
After returning to the imperial city, Duan Lingtian did not go home, but went to the Duan family. He had some unanswered questions in his heart.
Arriving at the Duan family's residence, Duan Lingtian went to find the clan leader, Duan Ruhuo.
"Clan leader, I heard Uncle Nie say that after my father disappeared in the 'Death Swamp', the family once sent a strong man into the Death Swamp to find him... but I don't know what the strong man's name was?"
Duan Lingtian asked straight to the point.
Although he didn't know why Duan Lingtian was suddenly interested in this, Duan Ruhuo still said: "That strong man is an ancestor of our Duan family, and he is a 'half-step virtual realm' existence... His name is '
Duanyou'!"
Duanyou!
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed unnoticeably.
It seemed that his guess was correct. The skeleton he saw in the underground palace hall under the "Big Pit" in the Death Swamp was really owned by the strong man of the Duan family.
The letter inside the skeleton's ring is enough to prove his identity!
"Xiaotian, why do you suddenly ask about this?"
Duan Ruhuo asked curiously.
"Just ask."
Duan Lingtian smiled and did not tell the truth.
It's not that he deliberately concealed it, but he didn't want to cause trouble to the senior. After all, the senior had passed away for a long time.
Let that senior sleep peacefully in that underground palace...
After knowing what he wanted to know, Duan Lingtian's purpose of this trip was considered to be accomplished and complete, so he said goodbye to Duan Ruhuo and left.
After leaving the Duan family's residence, Duan Lingtian went to the 'Shengwu Academy' and met his teacher at the 'Xiang Xingxing' of the Shengwu Academy, Sima Changfeng!
He is also the dean of Shengwu Academy.
"You little guy, it took you so long to come back before you even thought of visiting me?"
As soon as they met, Sima Changfeng couldn't help laughing and scolding.
Duan Lingtian smiled awkwardly, "I have encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation recently and am busy practicing, so... hehe."
"Okay, I was just joking. I heard that a month ago, you little guy just came back and made the people of the Yangling Kingdom feel defeated and fled... and you used an extremely weird method.
means."
Sima Changfeng took a deep look at Duan Lingtian, "Also, the sect brother you brought back turned out to be a first-level Yuanying realm warrior. I'm very curious, as his brother, what level of cultivation have you reached?"
Seeing Sima Changfeng's intense gaze, Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled, taking a step forward, his body's energy rising.
The next moment.
Wow!
In the void above Duan Lingtian's head, the shadows of a thousand ancient giant elephants condensed into shape, lifelike and ready to go.
"Seventh level of Nascent Soul Realm!"
Sima Changfeng exclaimed, looking horrified.
Although he had already prepared and guessed that Duan Lingtian's current strength should be stronger than that of his junior brother, Sima Changfeng never expected it.
Duan Lingtian actually broke through to the seventh level of Nascent Soul Realm!
What is the concept of the twenty-three-year-old ‘seventh level of Nascent Soul Realm’?
"Even if we look at the Han Dynasty, a 23-year-old at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm is probably extremely rare..."
Sima Changfeng said secretly.
While Sima Changfeng was horrified, Duan Lingtian was also sizing up Sima Changfeng with his mental strength.
After not seeing each other for a few years, this teacher of his has also broken through to the 'fourth level of peeping into the void', which is surprising.
Immediately afterwards, Duan Lingtian chatted with Sima Changfeng for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
When leaving, I went to meet the vice president ‘Zhan Hong’.
Zhan Hong had helped him a lot back then, and he would always remember it in his heart.
Qinglin Empire, three branch sects of Qinglin, and the original residence of Xueyue Sect.
Xueyue Sect, one of the five major sects of the Qinglin Empire in the past.
But now, as the two major sects, Kaishan Sect and Seven Star Sword Sect, have been destroyed one after another, only three of the five major sects remain, and they have been merged together.
Xueyue Gate has completely disappeared into the long river of history.
call!
A graceful figure, like an extremely fast lightning, swept into the mountain gate.
The disciples guarding the mountain gate were stunned for a while.
"Isn't that Senior Sister Liu Yue?"
One of them recognized the owner of that graceful figure.
They are the direct disciples of ‘Sect Master Xue Rui’, one of the three sect masters of the Three Qinglin Sects.
Xue Rui was also the former head of Xueyue Sect.
"Senior Sister Liu Yue is so anxious. It seems she has encountered something urgent."
Another person couldn't help but speculate.
As the site of the original Snow Moon Gate, it is covered with snow all year round, as if it is covered with a beautiful layer of silver.
"Master!"
Deep in the snow-capped mountains, a rushing sound broke the silence.
In front of a palace shrouded in white snow, a young woman of about thirty years old stood there. When she spoke, she exhaled ice and fell down.
"Come in."
A voice came from the palace.
The woman walked into the palace hall, looked at the middle-aged man standing not far away, and saluted respectfully, "Master!"
The middle-aged man wears a silk scarf on his head and holds a feather fan in his hand. He has a graceful and extraordinary bearing.
"Yue'er, why are you in such a hurry?"
The middle-aged man dressed as a scribe, who was the former Xueyue Sect Master ‘Xue Rui’, looked at his direct disciple with a puzzled look on his face.
"Master, there is news about Duan Lingtian!"
Liu Yue said excitedly with a rosy face.
"What?!"
When Xue Rui heard this, his pupils shrank, "Where is he now?"
After Xue Rui spoke, his tone became a little colder.
Since the last battle of the Seven Star Sword Sect, when Duan Lingtian escaped, the three Qinglin sects have tried their best to search for Duan Lingtian's whereabouts, but they have found nothing.
Duan Lingtian, the evil talent of the Seven Star Sword Sect, at only twenty-three years old, defeated the 'Qin Gongzi' who ranked third among the five young masters.
It is conceivable that once this Lingtian grows up in the future, it will definitely become a serious problem for the three Qinglin sects!
Therefore, no matter what, they must dig out Duan Lingtian and eradicate him before he grows up.
Otherwise, the three sects of Qinglin will never have peace!
However, although they have been working hard to search for Duan Lingtian's whereabouts during this period of time, they have not found any clues about Duan Lingtian.
Make them impatient!
And now, there is finally news about that period of Lingtian?
"Master, that section of Lingtian is currently in the imperial city of the Chixiao Kingdom, a small kingdom under our Qinglin Kingdom!"
Liu Yue said with some excitement.
You know, after the battle of the Seven Star Sword Sect, the three sect leaders of the three Qinglin Sects jointly issued a statement:
No matter who the disciples of the three Qinglin sects are, once they find Duan Lingtian's whereabouts and kill Duan Lingtian, they will be able to obtain a 'Fifth Grade Spiritual Weapon'!
In the Qinglin Empire, fifth-grade spiritual weapons have always been the 'patent' of the leaders of several major forces who stand at the top.
One can imagine how precious it is.
In order to trace Duan Lingtian's whereabouts, the three Qinglin sects put up rewards, which were two fifth-grade spiritual weapons from the exterminated Seven Star Sword Sect and Kaishan Sect.
Once Duan Lingtian is executed, the person who provides Duan Lingtian's whereabouts can choose one of the fifth-grade spiritual weapons.
At this moment, Liu Yue seemed to see a fifth-grade spiritual weapon waving to her.
"The Kingdom of Scarlet Sky?"
Xue Rui was startled for a moment, then suddenly realized, "No wonder we mobilized all the disciples of the three Qinglin sects and couldn't find any clues about Lingtian. It turns out that he went to the Chixiao Kingdom."
"Is the information accurate?"
Xue Rui asked Liu Yue with a solemn expression.
"Master, don't worry, the news must be accurate. In order to verify it, I personally went to the Chixiao Kingdom... Master, you may not know that Duan Lingtian has become famous in the Chixiao Kingdom a few years ago, and is even more recognized.
He is the 'Number One Genius of the Chixiao Kingdom'!"
Liu Yue said slowly: "According to the information I personally inquired about, Duan Lingtian appeared in the Imperial Palace of the Chixiao Kingdom two months ago... Moreover, he has many relatives and friends in the Imperial City of the Chixiao Kingdom.
.”
At this point, Liu Yue paused and continued: "If necessary, we can use those people to force Duan Lingtian to show up!"
"Yue'er, you are very good and you did not disappoint me."
A pleased smile appeared on Xue Rui's face, "I will go to Sect Master Long and Sect Master Lu immediately to tell them the good news!"
"Once that Ling Tian Fu is executed, Yue'er, you will get a fifth-grade spiritual weapon!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Rui stood up in the air and left directly.
Liu Yue was left standing there with an excited look on her face.
Chixiao Kingdom, Imperial City.
"Unknowingly, I've been back for two months..."
In the spacious backyard of the house, Duan Lingtian was sitting in the pavilion, playing with the little golden mouse on the table.
"Zhizhi~~"
The little golden mouse looked at Duan Lingtian and shouted, Yuan Li condensed his voice and said: "Brother Lingtian, do you miss Sister Ke'er and Sister Li Fei?"
Duan Lingtian nodded, "Ke'er and Xiao Fei'er haven't come back yet... I don't know where they went."
Not waiting for the little golden mouse to respond.
"Master!"
A voice came into the backyard.
Duan Lingtian could tell that it was Jingru's voice.
"Jingru, what's wrong?"
Duan Lingtian took the little golden mouse out of the backyard and came to the front yard.
"Master, there is a member of the Duan family outside looking for you."
Jingru said to Duan Lingtian.
"A member of the Duan family?"
Duan Lingtian walked out of the house and found a carriage waiting there.
"Xiaotian."
Soon, the door curtain of the carriage was opened, and a middle-aged man poked his head out, "I'll take you to meet someone."
Duan Lingtian recognized the person, the fourth master of the Duan family, ‘Duan Ruhong’!
With doubts, Duan Lingtian got on the carriage, "Who are you meeting?"
"You will know when you get to the family."
Duan Ruhong sold it out.
With doubts, Duan Lingtian and Duan Ruhong arrived at the Duan family's residence and headed to the Duan family's main hall.
Before entering the main hall, Duan Lingtian heard the voice coming from inside:
"Third brother, none of this is your fault. Also, your son is very promising. Now that you are back, you can enjoy your happiness."
Duan Lingtian could tell that it was the voice of the clan leader, Duan Ruhuo.
