Chapter 3657: Sudden Intrusion By Uninvited Guests

After being seated in a private room, Tang Chun ordered another round of dishes instead of having the waiter bring in the dishes from the common area. Since the waiter had gone to great lengths to secure a room for them, he decided to spare the waiter from having to bring the dishes into the room.

Thank you, sir. The waiter bowed to express his grat.i.tude. Before he left, he said, Please wait a moment, sir. Ill place your order now.

After the waiter left, Tang Chun asked Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian, are you married? I have a beautiful niece. If youre interested

Duan Ling Tian hurriedly interjected with a wry smile on his face, Elder Tang Chun, Im already married with children.

Duan Ling Tian did not expect Tang Chun, who was just chatting with him about another matter, would suddenly switch the topic and become a matchmaker.

Tang Chun, clearly undeterred by Duan Ling Tians words, said, Its normal for capable men to have multiple wives and concubines.

Elder Tang Chun, I really want to marry again, Duan Ling Tian said firmly.

Upon seeing this, Tang Chun gave up on introducing his niece to Duan Ling Tian.

At this time, one of the Zhong clans men had already collected the Formation compa.s.s and were on their way back to the restaurant.

Similarly, Zhong Er was also on his way to the restaurant.

The man who was sent to retrieve the Formation compa.s.s was an old man. He was also Zhong Sis right-hand man. Duan Ling Tian would have found him familiar. After all, during the Zhou clans auction, the old man had bribed a worker at the Zhou clans auction house and entered Duan Ling Tians room at that time.

The Formation compa.s.s was an heirloom of the Zhou clan. The Formation would cut off all means of communication once it was set up.

When the old man handed the Formation compa.s.s to Zhong Si, Zhong Si said, Lets set up the Formation first.

While Zhong Si was setting up the Formation, Zhong Ke Qis eyes flashed with killing intent as he thought to himself, You must die today, Duan Ling Tian!

In Zhong Ke Qis opinion, there was no way Duan Ling Tian could escape death today.

A month ago, after learning Duan Ling Tian had acc.u.mulated more than 120,000 points during the trial, he had fallen into despair. He worried for his future now that he had made an enemy out of such a genius. The only way was to kill Duan Ling Tian before Duan Ling Tian grew into his potential.

Although the Zhong clan wanted to kill Duan Ling Tian badly, they knew there was nothing much they could do if Duan Ling Tian stayed in the Hidden Fog Academy or if the teachers were by his side.

None of them expected Duan Ling Tian to show up at their restaurant without any protection. For them, this was a golden opportunity to get rid of Duan Ling Tian. After all, they knew that with Duan Ling Tians age and talent, he would definitely grow very strong in the future. At that time, the Zhong clan would be in trouble. Hence, they were rather eager to get rid of him.

Fourth uncle, is it done? Zhong Ke Qis eyes lit up when he saw Zhong Si returning.

Yes. Zhong Si nodded with a smile before he asked, Where are those people with you? They didnt leave, did they?

No. Zhong Ke Qi shook his head. I left them in the room where we ate earlier. I didnt tell them about our plan. I only said I had something to attend to and told them to wait for me there.

Well done. Zhong Si nodded. His eyes shone cruelly as he said, We just need to wait for your father to help us set up another Formation. When the two Formations are up, well be able to get rid of that nuisance Duan Ling Tian!

Zhong Ke Qis face had turned slightly red from the excitement. He smiled and said, Were about to achieve our goal! I heard that reality is often the opposite of our dreams.

Recently, Zhong Ke Qi had been having nightmares about Duan Ling Tian killing him and ma.s.sacring those from the Zhong clan. He would wake up, drenched in sweat. In fact, over the past few days, he had not been sleeping. He spent most of his time cultivating instead.

At this time, Zhong Er finally arrived. Although he and Zhong Ke Qi looked rather alike, their temperaments were completely different.

Zhong Ke Qi was young and still had the unrestrained aura that usually came with youth.

On the other hand, Zhong Er had a steady and mature air about him. Moreover, with just a glance, one could tell he had high status.

Father! Youre here! Zhong Ke Qis eyes lit up as soon as he saw his father.

Zhong Er nodded to Zhong Ke Qi. A rare smile appeared on his usually expressionless face. Then, he said, Ke Qi, its all thanks to you that were given this golden opportunity. Otherwise, who knows how long wed have to wait to kill. Now, which room is he in?

After listening to Zhong Si and Zhong Ke Qis words, killing intent shone in Zhong Ers eyes. He asked, Did you probe the cultivation base of the old man with him?

No. Zhong Si shook his head. Second Brother, since theres no King of G.o.ds among us, we didnt dare to rashly use our Divine Consciousness to probe him. Itd be terrible if we accidentally alert them

Good, you did well. Zheng Er nodded. Then, he raised his hand.

A Formation compa.s.s flew up, setting up a Formation that covered the room, causing the room to tremble slightly.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian and Tang Chun who were in the room had felt the tremble as well.

Tang Chun frowned. As he was about to extend his Divine Consciousness, the door opened with a loud bang.

Four people rushed into the room at once. Their speed was not fast nor did they look special. However, one of them caught Duan Ling Tians eyes immediately.

Zhong Ke Qi? Duan Ling Tian recognized Zhong Ke Qi as soon as he saw Zhong Ke Qi. He found one of the old men rather familiar, but he could not remember where or when he had seen the old man before.

On the contrary, the old man did not have Duan Ling Tians problem. He could clearly remember Duan Ling Tian. His expression changed drastically as his eyes widened in terror. He recalled the purple-clad young man in room nine in the Zhou clans auction house.

The old man had gone to room nine to probe the young man who had successfully bid for the three divine pills, the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Pills, against Zhong Si. Zhong Si had planned to seek revenge from the purple-clad young man at that time because the purple-clad young man had disregarded his status as the Fourth Master of the Zhong clan.

The old man remembered seeing the teenage girl and beautiful woman in the room as well. In the beginning, he did not pay any attention to the teenage girl or the beautiful woman. He only realized the beautiful woman was a Lord of G.o.ds when she almost killed Han Li Gang, an advanced King of G.o.ds from the 10,000 Devils Sect, for being rude to the teenage girl. With that, almost everyone realized the teenage girl had come from a powerful force.

After the teenage girl and the beautiful woman left, many people had searched for the purple-clad young man in hopes of forging a connection with him. Based on the teenage girl and the beautiful womans strength, they were likely from a top lord-rank force or even an emperor-rank force. All of them hoped to curry favor with the purple-clad young man for this reason. Alas, they could not find him. Apart from a few people, including him, no one knew what the purple-clad young man looked like.

The old man truly did not expect to see Duan Ling Tian at this time.

Why is he here? Clearly, realization had yet to dawn on the old man.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian looked at the uninvited indifferently.

At this time, Zhong Ke Qi, who was standing behind Zhong Er, sneered as he coldly said, Duan Ling Tian, I didnt think youd be brave enough to leave the academy without a teacher by your side. Today, youre going to die here.

You want to kill me? Or is it the Zhong clan that wants to kill me? Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow. Then, he looked at Zhong Er and Zhong Si.

The Zhong clan? Tang Chuns expression darkened immediately upon hearing these words.. To think the people of the Zhong clan dared to make an attempt on Duan Ling Tians life in the presence of an inner elder of the Hidden Fog Sect!
