A scantily-clad young woman walked behind the young man. Although the woman was not as beautiful as Hu Fei Yan, she was not the slightest bit inferior to He Qian, the daughter of the Clan Leader of He clan.

‘It’s him!’ With just a glance, Duan Ling Tian recognized the young man as Huang Jia Long, the fourth son of Huang Yuan Fei, the City Governor of Pa.s.sage City. He had previously defeated Huang Jia Long during the Southern Heaven Combat. He briefly glanced at the beautiful woman accompanying Huang Jia Long as he thought to himself, ‘It seems like the rumor of Huang Jia Long being a womanizer isn’t unfounded. It’s clear that this woman isn’t a proper lady from a good family.’

As soon as Huang Jia Long walked into the restaurant with the beautiful woman, it did not take long for him to discover that the seemingly ordinary patron of the restaurant was Duan Ling Tian. Initially, his attention was attracted by Duan Ling Tian because Duan Ling Tian only spared him a glance while everyone was openly staring at him. That was how discovered Duan Ling Tian. His eyes lit up like the stars in the night sky as soon as he saw Duan Ling Tian. He did not waste any time and said to the woman accompanying him, “I have something to attend to. You can return first.” He did not look at her when he spoke, directly making his way to Duan Ling Tian.

Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman thought Huang Jia Long had dismissed her because another woman had attracted his attention. However, she could not help but s.h.i.+ver when she saw him walking to a handsome purple-clad young man with an extraordinary bearing. ‘Is Young Master Huang interested in man?’

“My lord, he’s coming our way,” Liu Guang Lin said when he saw Huang Jia Long walking toward them.

Duan Ling Tian only nodded slightly in response. He had already noticed this.

“Brother Duan!” Huang Jia Long greeted Duan Ling Tian.

Initially, Duan Ling Tian had a.s.sumed Huang Jia Long only came over to greet him. He did not expect Huang Jia Long to sit down unceremoniously before he asked the waiter to bring a wine gla.s.s and an extra set of tableware over.

Huang Jia Long acted as though he had been friends with Duan Ling Tian for many years. He was casual and paid no attention to formalities at all.

Meanwhile, the patrons who were drinking in the restaurant had been paying attention to Huang Jia Long as soon as he walked in. They, naturally, overheard the way he had addressed Duan Ling Tian. With this, they were able to guess Duan Ling Tian’s ident.i.ty.

“Brother Duan? Young Master Huang of Pa.s.sage City seems very friendly with that man… Is there any prominent person with the surname Duan in the Supporting Fall Nation?”

“He’s dressed in purple, and his surname is Duan… Could he be Duan Ling Tian?”

“Duan Ling Tian? The young man who defeated Young Master Huang with one move during the Southern Heaven Combat?”

“That’s right! He’s not even 100 years old. His terrifying strength aside, he also owns two Royal Grade Celestial Weapons! I heard he’s so powerful that he might even be stronger than those weak One Basic Celestial Dukes.”

With this, Duan Ling Tian who had been sitting inconspicuously in the restaurant became the focus of everyone’s attention.

After sitting down without an invitation, Huang Jia Long looked at Duan Ling Tian and earnestly said, “Brother Duan, I’ve never admired anyone in my life until I met you! Whether it’s my father or the emperor, I’m confident I’ll be able to surpa.s.s them when I’m their age. After meeting you, I finally understand the feeling of admiration!”

“Young Master Huang, you’re flattering me… I heard that you’re a rare talented genius in the Supporting Fall Nation. If you weren’t so obsessed with women, your accomplishments would surely surpa.s.s those of the fourth prince,” Duan Ling Tian replied modestly with a smile as he looked at Huang Jia Long knowingly.

“Brother Duan, y-you know about this?” Huang Jia Long touched his nose in embarra.s.sment. He did not expect this young genius whom he admired was privy to his promiscuous lifestyle. He smiled sheepishly before he said, “Brother Duan, this is embarra.s.sing… However, I’ll be honest. Apart from pursuing power and strength, my other hobby is pursuing women! Although I’m fond of women, I’m not the unscrupulous sort. I’ve never deceived or forced a woman. The women I’m with are all willing!”

Duan Ling Tian did not doubt Huang Jia Long’s words. Although there was a saying about how one’s nature would only be revealed with time, as someone who had lived twice, his judgment was rather good. Based on the clear and righteous look in Huang Jia Long’s eyes, he could tell Huang Jia Long was not a malicious person. In the end, he shook his head and smiled. “If you were that kind of person, do you think I’ll allow you to sit here or chat with you?”

If Huang Jia Long was a despicable character, not only would Duan Ling Tian prevent Huang Jia Long from sitting down at his table, but he might even rough him up a little for justice’s sake!

Huang Jia Long was not reserved at all. After sitting down, he chatted incessantly with Duan Ling Tian about all kinds of topics. Nevertheless, from the beginning to the end, he did not ask about Duan Ling Tian’s background. He chatted casually as though they were old friends.

“The various factions in the Southern Heaven Territory are also divided into different grades… For example, the top sects in the borders of the Southern Heaven Territory are cla.s.sified as grade nine sects. A country like the Supporting Fall Nation that’s located on the edge of the central area is cla.s.sified as a grade eight Celestial Kingdom. The sects and clans in the Supporting Fall Nation are mostly grade nine sects and clans. For example, the He clan is a grade nine clan. Huang Jia Long’s Huang clan in Pa.s.sage City is also a grade nine clan. The Three Sects and Two Clans are grade seven sects and clans. The grade seven sects and clans all have Prominent Celestial Crystal Veins. Prominent Celestial Crystal Veins are capable of producing supreme Celestial Crystals. In addition, the Three Sects and Two Clans have a very close relations.h.i.+p with the Profound Nether Mansion… They are indirectly dependent on each other. This place I’m in now is also under the rule of the Profound Nether Mansion. The Profound Nether Mansion that’s a grade six Celestial Mansion is related to one of the top ten clans in the Southern Heaven Territory…”

After chatting with Huang Jia Long, the chatterbox, the entire afternoon, Duan Ling Tian learned about a lot of things. He also learned the entrance to the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm would open in half a year.

“I was about to break through and become a One Basic Celestial Duke… However, in order to enter the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm and search for fortuitous encounters, I haven’t been cultivating to improve my cultivation base. Instead, I’ve been focusing on comprehending my Divine Ability.” Huang Jia Long still had not fully mastered his a.s.sistive Duke Grade Divine Ability so he decided to focus on it. Most importantly, only Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials could enter the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. Celestial Duke would be automatically prevented from entering by a Formation at the entrance of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm.

When night fell, Huang Jia Ling said reluctantly, “Brother Duan, it’s getting dark now. I’ll send you back… We will chat again another time.” It was clear he still wanted to chat with Duan Ling Tian.

“It’s fine, we can return by ourselves.”

Despite Duan Ling Tian’s refusal, Huang Jia Long was very enthusiastic. Duan Ling Tian could only follow Huang Jia Long as he led them to the Imperial Palace of the Supporting Fall Nation.

When the trio arrived on an empty street near the palace…

Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+

Two gusts of wind blew violently. Soon enough, two people appeared, blocking the trio’s path on both sides of the street.

“Huh?” Duan Ling Tian came to a halt and looked at the middle-aged man who blocked his path.

The middle-aged glared at Duan Ling Tian with deep-seated hatred as though he had a huge enmity with Duan Ling Tian. His voice was cold as he said, “Duan Ling Tian, I’m going to make you pay with your life today for killing my son…”

“I killed your son?” Duan Ling Tian was confused.

The middle-aged man said, “Eleven days ago, outside the capital.”

Upon hearing the middle-aged man’s words, realization dawned on Duan Ling Tian. “As it turns out you’re the ugly and twisted man’s father. It seems like the Celestial Talisman he sent before his death left some clues behind. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to find me.” His expression remained calm when he spoke.

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian silently took out a hairpin. Mysterious light twinkled above the hairpin. The two flowers at the tail of the hairpin shone with a blood-red light. No one noticed the hairpin since he held it tightly in his hand. The hairpin was none other than the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon he had obtained in the borderlands. After using it once, he was left with two more uses.

Although Duan Ling Tian did not know the cultivation base of the middle-aged man and the man who came with him, he was certain the two men were stronger than Liu Guang Lin, a One Basic Celestial Duke, who had the highest cultivation base in his group of three. Due to the threat these two men posed, he brought the hairpin out.

“You’re seeking death!” the middle-aged man cried out. Not only did Duan Ling Tian not deny killing his son, but Duan Ling Tian even dared to call his son ugly and twisted! How could he not be furious? His Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body like flames.

Duan Ling Tian was about to use the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, and the middle-aged man was about to attack…

Suddenly, an indifferent voice rang in the air. “I think you’re the one who’s seeking death!”
