Chapter 3763 A Life-or-Death Situation

Although Hou Qing Ning had only known Duan Ling Tian for a short time, based on their interactions and what he had heard, he knew Duan Ling Tian was a cautious person. When Duan Ling Tian refused his help when they were in the Hidden Fog Academy, he had thought that Duan Ling Tians pride would lead to his downfall. However, contrary to his expectations, Duan Ling Tian survived. Later on, he even heard that there were more than one king-rank force that sent their death warriors to kill Duan Ling Tian. Shockingly, most of the death warriors were killed. Whether Duan Ling Tian killed them himself or not, it was clear that Duan Ling Tian was cautious and meticulous in his planning.

There was also the incident of Duan Ling Tian killing Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao, but Duan Ling Tian still managed to leave the Hidden Fog Sect safely before joining the Linghu clan. Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao were the disciples of Supreme Elder Feng and Supreme Elder Lei, after all. It was almost impossible to survive after killing the duo, and yet, Duan Ling Tian managed to survive. Although killing Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao seemed like an impulsive act, Hou Qing Ning believed Duan Ling Tian had planned everything beforehand.

After taking everything into consideration, Hou Qing Ning decided to take the risk and warn Duan Ling Tian. He believed Duan Ling Tian would be able to come up with a plan as long as Duan Ling Tian was able to sense that something was amiss. He also believed Duan Ling Tian would be able to figure out that he was being threatened to lure Duan Ling Tian out of the Linghu clans estate. Moreover, with Duan Ling Tians current status in the Linghu clan, the Clan Leader would surely not hesitate to help Duan Ling Tian.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at the black-clad man and said nonchalantly, Ive already asked our clan leader to ask for the Murong clans help to protect the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect. Then, he said to Hou Qing Ning, It seems like this person is acting alone. The Lords of G.o.ds from the Murong clan have searched the area around the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect for two days and didnt find anyone suspicious.

Upon hearing this, Hou Qing Ning sighed in relief and said, Thank you.

At the same time, the onlookers watching from afar came to a realization.

Duan Ling Tian? Hes Revered Elder Duan Ling Tian from the Linghu clan?

Hes so young! Hes the one who refined the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills into Limit Divine Pills? Wow, you really cant judge a book by its cover.

The onlookers began to discuss among themselves when they discovered Duan Ling Tians ident.i.ty. After a while, their eyes s.h.i.+fted to Linghu Heng, Linghu Huan, and Linghu Zheng Xing. Theyre the ancestors of the Linghu clan, right? The three strongest powerhouses in the Linghu clan? I didnt think three of them would appear in the city together.

Theyre obviously here to protect Revered Elder Duan. I didnt expect Revered Elder Duan to have such high status in the clan when hes only joined the clan fewer than three years.

The others seem like Lords of G.o.ds as well. That Linghu Qing Ze, and that Linghu

As Duan Ling Tian confronted the black-clad man, Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan stood side-by-side between them.

At the same time, the other seven Lords of G.o.ds from the Linghu clan surrounded the black-clad man.

From the moment we met, Ive already monitored you using my Divine Consciousness to prevent you from warning Duan Ling Tian, the black-clad man said to Hou Qing Ning, Even after Ive confiscated his Soul Pearl from you, I didnt stop monitoring you. How did you manage to warn him? I had everything under control.

A hint of unwillingness could be heard in the black-clad mans hoa.r.s.e voice when he spoke.

I warned him while you told me to contact him and tell him Im in Linghu City, Hou Qing Ning said disdainfully, I told him that he owed me and the members of the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect a meal, but in truth, I made it up. There was no such thing about him treating the members of the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect to a meal. Naturally, he would be able to sense something was amiss when he heard those words. Based on what I know, I was certain he would be able to figure out that someone was threatening me to lure him out of the Linghu clans estate.

Arent you afraid that your action would cost the lives of the members of the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect? the black-clad man asked in a grim tone.

I said it earlier. I believe in Duan Ling Tian. I believe hed be able to figure my situation out and come up with a plan. Moreover, the Murong clan is located near the Ten Thousand Leaves Sect, and the Murong clan is, most importantly, an ally of the Linghu clan, Hou Qing Ning replied truthfully. He did not intend to hide his thoughts from Duan Ling Tian.

So youre a risk-taker, the black-clad man said frostily. Then, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Duan Ling Tian and said, You found yourself a really good friend, Duan Ling Tian. Hes even willing to risk the lives of thousands of people for your sake. Im honored to have such a good friend, Duan Ling Tian replied with a smile. However, his gaze when he looked at the black-clad man was as though he was looking at a dead man.

Whoos.h.!.+

At this moment, a sword suddenly appeared in the black-clad mans hand. At the same time, green wind blades sailed in the air from all directions as he waved his sword. Thats the Wind Shadow Lightning Sword! Linghu Huan said with narrowed eyes as soon as he saw the prominent divine artifact, No wonder I found your moves familiar. As it turns out, its Supreme Elder Feng from the Hidden Fog Sect.

Linghu Zheng Xing and the others made their move, and Linghu Huan followed suit.

On the other hand, the onlookers were shocked when they discovered the black-clad man was Supreme Elder Feng from the Hidden Fog Sect. Moreover, he wanted to kill Duan Ling Tian. Linghu Zheng Xing and the others brought their divine artifacts out at this time. Although they were a step behind Supreme Elder Feng earlier, it was easy for them to deflect his attacks since he was outnumbered.

At this time, the black-clad man finally pushed his hood back, revealing a face that Duan Ling Tian was familiar with. After that, he said with a sigh, I thought I had planned everything perfectly. I didnt expect Hou Qing Ning to trust you so much

Supreme Elder Feng, did you act on your own or under the orders of the Hidden Fog Sect? Linghu Huan asked in a low voice.

I acted on my own, Supreme Elder Feng replied tonelessly, The Hidden Fog Sect and even Supreme Elder Lei arent willing to go against Duan Ling Tian because theyre afraid of his potential. What a pity! I was so close to succeeding

A hint of discontent and killing intent could be seen on Supreme Elder Fengs face as he spoke.

It seems like Shangguan Xiong Feng isnt just your disciple, Linghu Huan said knowingly. After all, he did not think Supreme Elder Feng would risk offending the entire Linghu clan if Shangguan Xiong Feng was just his disciple.

Rumor has it that your illegitimate son fathered Shangguan Xiong Feng, and Shangguan Xiong Feng was your grandson, Linghu Huan said.

Thats right. Hes my biological grandson, Supreme Elder Feng said with a nod.

The onlookers were shocked by this revelation.

At the same time, Supreme Elder Feng made his move again. He slashed his left palm with his sword before he imbued the law of wind into his blood. Following that, a strange blood-red energy surged out and shrouded him. Then, it turned into a giant blood-red sword before slas.h.i.+ng over at Duan Ling Tian at lightning speed.

No!

The expressions of the nine Lords of G.o.ds from the Linghu clan, including Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan, changed drastically upon seeing this. They were briefly startled by the revelation that Shangguan Xiong Feng was Supreme Elder Fengs grandson so they were caught off guard by Supreme Elder Fengs sudden attack.

Duan Ling Tian, Hou Qing Ning, Ill be able to face Xiong Feng after I drag both of you to h.e.l.l with me!

The blood-red sword shot past Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan toward Duan Ling Tian and Hou Qing Ning.

Hou Qing Ning was still in shock. He did not expect the rumors to be true.

The blood-red Sword glinted in the light, about to land on Duan Ling Tian and Hou Qing Ning.

The Lords of G.o.ds from the Linghu clan regretted their momentary distraction. Although Supreme Elder Feng would not be able to escape from them, it was too late to save Duan Ling Tian from Supreme Elder Fengs sudden attack. After all, Supreme Elder Feng was a Lord of G.o.ds as well.

The four Lords of G.o.ds who came to help the powerhouses from the Linghu clan wore unsightly expressions on their faces. They were here to protect Duan Ling Tian in exchange for Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Limit Divine Pills. If Duan Ling Tian died, they would not be able to obtain the Divine Pills. Even if the Linghu clan rewarded them with something else, they would still be ashamed to accept the reward since they failed to protect Duan Ling Tian. All of them looked at Supreme Elder Feng with killing intent flas.h.i.+ng in their eyes when they thought about how they would suffer a loss because of him.
