“Pal, I’ve let you down regarding Little Wu’s incident!” Li An instantly apologized with a guilty expression on his face when saw the travel-weary Yang Chong.

Yang Chong was an old man with an ordinary appearance and a huge built. His hair and eyebrows were white. He looked like a looming paG.o.da as he stood there.

He shook his head when he heard Li An’s apology. “I understand your difficulty. If I were you, I would’ve done the same. For this reason, I don’t blame you for Little Wu’s death!”

He had learned about what happened from the old servant that followed by his son’s side, and he could understand Li An’s actions. If Li An had intervened more than he already did, it would cause an even bigger incident.

Since this would affect the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect’s reputation, the high-ranking officials of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect would likely expel Li An to save the sect’s reputation. For this reason, he understood why Li An acted the way he did.

Li An felt even more guilty when he saw how understanding Yang Chong was. His gaze was cold as he said sincerely, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely avenge Little Wu!”

However, Yang Chong did not seem to hear Li An’s words. He only looked at Li An and said indifferently, “Bring me to see the person who killed my son.”

“Alright.” Li An was not surprised that Yang Chong wanted to see Duan Ling Tian. He instantly led Yang Chong to where Duan Ling Tian was.

Although Yang Chong had said he did not blame Li An for this incident, when Li An saw Yang Chong keeping mum, he knew Yang Chong must have blamed him a little at the very least.

This was only natural, so Li An was not worried about it.

“Duan Ling Tian had also killed someone I was planning to accept as a disciple ten days ago. I won’t be able to rest as long as he’s alive!” Li An suddenly said in a deep voice as his eyes gleamed with murderous intent.

Li An had suddenly spoken because he wanted to break the ice. Moreover, he really did hate Duan Ling Tian.

“You were planning to accept a direct disciple?” As Li An expected, as soon as Yang Chong heard his words, he turned to look at Li An in confusion. From what he knew, Li An had very high requirements when accepting disciples. The three disciples he had accepted possessed blue Innate Spiritual Roots.

“Yes.” Li An nodded before he told Yang Chong about Gu Chun and his cousin, Gu Long, and how Gu Long was also killed by Duan Ling Tian.

When he finished speaking, his eyes shone with killing intent. The aura emitting out of his body was extremely cold as well, causing the temperature in the surroundings to drop by several degrees.

“I’m even more curious now. Who’s so daring to offend First Silver Flame Elder Li An from the Black Turtle Sanctum to this extent?” One must admit that Li An’s complaints had made Yang Chong feel better.

As it turned out, his son was not the only one who was killed by this person. Even the person whom Li An desperately wanted to accept as a disciple since he possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root was killed by this person as well.

For this reason, at this moment, Yang Chong felt a sense of camaraderie with Li An. The small bit of dissatisfaction he felt in his heart disappeared immediately.

…

“Did you hear? Duan Ling Tian struck again after killing Gu Long ten day ago!” As Li An and Yang Chong made their way to the altar of the Black Turtle Sanctum, they suddenly heard a Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple exclaiming loudly.

Li An and Yang Chong were flying high in the sky, therefore n.o.body on the ground noticed them at all. Otherwise, the Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples by the altar would have come forward to greet Li An.

“Duan Ling Tian?” Li An and Yang Chong exchanged a look before they came to a halt to listen to the conversation.

“Are you talking about how Duan Ling Tian challenged Senior Brother Zhang Ji and successfully claimed a Secundus house after defeating him?”

“That’s right! It seems you’ve heard about it as well!”

“How could I not? Currently, almost every Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciple who’s not in closed-door cultivation has heard about it.”

“Duan Ling Tian is really strong. To think he’s even able to defeat Zhang Ji too!”

The conversation of the Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples entered Li An and Yang Chong’s ears clearly.

Secundus house?

Yang Chong’s eyes narrowed immediately.

Although he was not a member of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, since he was best friends with Li An, he knew the ins and outs of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect.

Based on what he knew, the Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples who resided in Secundus houses were mostly at the Quintessential Saint Stage and above!

“Li An, didn’t you say Duan Ling Tian’s strength ten days ago is only the strongest among Martial Cultivators at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage? Only ten days have pa.s.sed, but he’s already capable of competing for a Secundus house?” Yang Chong asked with a frown as he looked at Li An.

He did not wait for Li An to reply before he continued saying, “I remember you told me that Secundus houses in the Black Turtle Sanctum are for Quintessential Saint Stage disciples! Is Zhang Ji a Quintessential Saint Stage disciple living in the Secundus house?”

Li An did not reply to him after he finished speaking.

To Yang Chong’s surprise, he saw Li An had an expression of terror and disbelief on his face.

“What’s wrong?” Yang Chong could not help but ask when he saw this.

“Zhang Ji is a direct disciple of one of the Silver Flame Elders in our Black Turtle Sanctum. He’s an elite powerhouse among all Early Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in our Black Turtle Sanctum. He’s only a step away from breaking through to the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage!” Li An answered solemnly.

“An elite powerhouse among all Early Quintessential Saint Stage disciples in the Black Turtle Sanctum? Such a person is defeated by Duan Ling Tian?” Yang Chong was puzzled.

However, the most shocking news had yet to come.

“I heard that during the battle, Senior Brother Zhang Ji had cast the high-grade offensive Divine Ability, the Cyclopean Punch. Even then, he’s still defeated!” When Li An heard this, his eyes widened in disbelief.

“How’s this possible?!” He exclaimed.

“He had cast a high-grade offensive Divine Ability, but he’s defeated by Duan Ling Tian?” Yang Chong’s expression turned grave as he muttered, “It seems like Duan Ling Tian did not use all his strength when he fought with Gu Long ten days ago!”

In the end, Li An and Yang Chong learned about everything that had happened that day between Duan Ling Tian and Zhang Ji.

In the end, when they looked at each other, they could see the confusion in each other’s eyes.

Duan Ling Tian had actually mastered three high-grade Divine Abilities?

Not only that, the high-grade a.s.sist-type Divine Ability that Duan Ling Tian mastered had absorbed the powerful energy that Zhang Ji unleashed at the critical moment? Moreover, he had fused his own energy with Zhang Ji’s energy and counterattacked, severely injuring Zhang Ji and defeating him.

“What kind of a.s.sist-type Divine Ability is that?” Li An and Yang Chong exchanged a glance. They were still shocked. Both of them had never heard of such a Divine Ability.

“What a tyrannical a.s.sist-type Divine Ability!” Yang Chong remarked in a deep voice.

“It’s indeed tyrannical! What did Duan Ling Tian do to deserve such blessings from G.o.d? Not only did he comprehend three high-grade Divine Abilities, but his a.s.sist-type Divine Ability is not even a normal high-grade Divine Ability!” Li An’s eyes were red with jealousy when he finished speaking.

…

At the residence of the Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples.

Inside the Secundus house, Duan Ling Tian who had recuperated for a while finally had the strength to stand up.

After he stood up, he immediately entered the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da. He planned to utilize the slow time flow inside to recover his Sun Saint Energy.

The empty feeling in his body made him feel insecure.

“After I recover, I’ll go into closed-door cultivation and raise my cultivation base to the peak of the Divine Saint Stage first before planning on what to do next!”

As for now, Duan Ling Tian did not dare to think about the Exemplary Saint Stage. Currently, his cultivation base had only broken through to the Intermediate Divine Saint Stage.

“Duan Ling Tian!” Duan Ling Tian did not know how long it had been but when the Sun Saint Energy in his body had recovered by about 10%, a cold voice rang from outside his house, jolting him awake.

“Li An?” Duan Ling Tian was no stranger to this voice. He could tell it belonged to the Black Turtle Sanctum’s First Silver Flame Elder Li An.

“What’s he doing here? Don’t tell me Zhang Ji has some kind of connection with him as well?” Duan Ling Tian frowned and exited the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da.

After putting away the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da, he pushed the door open and walked out into the little courtyard of the Secundus house.

As soon as he walked out, he could feel many eyes trained on him. Two pairs of eyes in particular felt hostile and was filled with killing intent.

“Who’s he?” Duan Ling Tian looked at Li An before he s.h.i.+fted his attention to an old man with a huge-built standing next to Li An. A puzzled expression appeared on his face.

He did not find it strange that Li An was looking at him with murderous intent. However, he was certain this was his first time meeting this old man. Moreover, the old man was not even wearing the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect’s uniform. This meant he was not a member of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect.

Duan Ling Tian did not know how he had offended this old man to the point that he would emit such a terrifying killing intent.

“You’re Duan Ling Tian?” The old man with a huge-built asked in an interrogative tone.

“Who are you?” Duan Ling Tian asked in return in response to the old man’s question.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, the old man with a huge-built old man looked at Duan Ling Tian and said in a tone that was neither hurried nor slow, “You… Kill yourself!” His tone brooked no argument.
