Duan Lingtian and Lu Qiu left Tianquan Palace together and returned along the way they came.

"Duan Lingtian, you..."

On the way, Lu Qiu was hesitant to speak. He seemed to have some scruples about what he wanted to say.

"Elder Lu Qiu, you saved my life and showed me the kindness to rebuild... If you have anything to say, just say it."

Duan Lingtian smiled slightly, his smile blowing like the spring breeze on his face.

Lu Qiu nodded, and then continued: "Although, I don't know what means you relied on to defeat the strong, kill Shi Hao, and even defeat the adopted son of the Peak Master, 'Wu Yongqian'... However, as the saying goes,'

"Everyone is innocent, but Huaibi is guilty." Today, you showed such terrible methods in front of the Peak Master, I'm afraid..."

"I'm afraid the Peak Master will be greedy for the means I have at my disposal, right?"

Duan Lingtian took over Lu Qiu's words, with an indescribable smile on his lips.

Lu Qiu nodded with a solemn expression.

"Thank you Elder Lu Qiu for your concern. But at that time, I had no choice but to do that."

Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes into a straight line and smiled faintly.

Indeed, he had no choice.

If he didn't use "Shaking Jin", he wouldn't be Wu Yongqian's opponent.

Once he is defeated by Wu Yongqian, according to the agreement between him and the master of Tianquan Peak, ‘Wu Dao’, he must become Wu Dao’s personal disciple.

In order to make Wu Dao give up this idea, he naturally had to go all out to defeat Wu Yongqian!

Only in this way can he get out of trouble.

"I really don't understand why you didn't agree to the Peak Master... If you become the Peak Master's disciple, you can get his protection to a certain extent. At least, Zhao Lin will be very jealous of you because of this, and he won't dare to

Make a mess."

Lu Qiu shook his head, puzzled by Duan Lingtian's decision.

In his opinion, if Duan Lingtian takes the master of Tianquan Peak, ‘Wu Dao’, as his disciple, there will be no harm at all.

Hearing Lu Qiu's words, Duan Lingtian just smiled and said nothing more.

He has his own ideas.

Not to mention that he inherited the life-long memories of the 'Samsara Martial Emperor', there is no need to accept someone weaker than the 'Samsara Martial Emperor' as his teacher...

As for Wu Dao's purpose of accepting him as his direct disciple, anyone with a discerning eye can see it at a glance.

Wu Dao didn't really want to accept him as his direct disciple...

But I want to use him to satisfy my own vanity.

Duan Lingtian believed that as long as he was willing, the masters of the Seven Star Sword Sect would probably rush to accept him as their direct disciple.

The talent he has shown now is already superior to that of the Qinglin Empire.

In the history of the Qinglin Empire, there has never been a person at his age with such a level of cultivation.

Sudden.

"It's you!"

Duan Lingtian was walking on the mountain road when he heard a thunderous explosion, which woke him up like a dream.

At a glance.

Duan Lingtian saw that a person was walking along the mountain road towards Tianshu Peak.

This is a young man wearing the attire of an inner disciple of the Seven Star Sword Sect, about twenty-five or six years old.

With just one glance, Duan Lingtian felt that this person was somewhat familiar.

This inner disciple, now looking at Duan Lingtian, his eyes are burning, as if he wants to rush forward and fight Duan Lingtian.

"Fan Jian?"

Lu Qiu, who was next to Duan Lingtian, obviously recognized this inner disciple.

At this time, the inner disciple noticed Lu Qiu, took a deep breath, and bowed to Lu Qiu with a little respect, "Elder Lu Qiu."

"Why, do you know Duan Lingtian?"

Lu Qiu looked at Fan Jian and asked with some surprise.

Just now, Fan Jian looked at Duan Lingtian, and he could see clearly that it was a look full of hatred and anger.

He couldn't help but feel a little strange.

As far as he knew, Fan Jian left the Seven Star Sword Sect half a year ago and went on a long journey. Looking at Fan Jian's current appearance, it was obvious that he had just returned.

Duan Lingtian was a member of the Seven Star Sword Sect only half a year ago, and he was from a small kingdom under the Qinglin Empire.

Fan Jian, logically speaking, it is impossible to know Duan Lingtian.

"More than just acquaintance!"

Fan Jian looked at Duan Lingtian with a fierce look in his eyes and anger on his face.

"Do I know you?"

Duan Lingtian frowned and was a little speechless. Is there anything wrong with this inner disciple's mind?

Although I think the other person looks familiar.

But he remembered that he had been in the Seven Star Sword Sect for half a year, and it seemed that he had not interacted with any inner disciples at all.

"It seems that you have really forgotten. Then I will remind you... half a year ago, Mozhu City, restaurant."

Fan Jian gritted his teeth. This guy had asked the people around him to throw him out of the restaurant, causing him great humiliation. Now, he had forgotten all about it!

Fan Jian originally thought that the incident had been forgotten by him.

It wasn't until he saw the other person again that he realized that the bad temper in his heart had not gone away.

Half a year ago?

Mozhu City, restaurant?

Soon, Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed, and he remembered it completely, "You are the inner disciple who was with Huo Xin and Yuan Wu at the Mozhu City Restaurant, intending to forcefully buy the baby rat from me?"

"Hmph! It seems you finally remembered."

Seeing Duan Lingtian recognize him, Fan Jian sneered.

But I had some doubts in my heart.

This young man has now become an outer disciple. It seems that his, Huo Xin and Yuan Wu's guesses were right.

When he first appeared in Mozhu City, he was really planning to join the Seven Star Sword Sect.

Moreover, this young man seems to know Huo Xin and Yuan Wu...

Could it be that Huo Xin and Yuan Wu have already taught him a lesson?

Huo Xin? Yuan Wu?

Lu Qiu, who was standing aside, twitched his lips when he heard Duan Lingtian's words.

I vaguely realized something.

He still remembered that half a year ago, not long after Duan Lingtian joined the Seven Star Sword Sect, he had a conflict with Huo Xin and Yuan Wu, and even went to the stage of life and death...

Huo Xin and Yuan Wu were killed by Duan Lingtian in front of them on the "Life and Death Platform" at Tianquan Peak!

It was after that battle that Duan Lingtian became a 'celebrity' in Tianquan Peak.

At that time, he felt a little strange. Duan Lingtian had just joined the Seven Star Sword Sect. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to have such a big conflict with Huo Xin and Yuan Wu, and actually go to the point of boarding the 'stage of life and death' to decide his life and death.

Now, when he heard Duan Lingtian's words, he seemed to understand something.

It turns out that Huo Xin and Yuan Wu once wanted to forcefully buy Duan Lingtian's things...

Perhaps, this is why the conflict occurred.

"Did Fan Jian, Huo Xin, and Yuan Wu have a conflict with Duan Lingtian?"

Lu Qiu's heart skipped a beat, and she had an ominous premonition.

"Well, I remembered."

Duan Lingtian nodded lightly and looked at Fan Jian calmly, with a calm expression on his face.

"snort!"

Seeing that Duan Lingtian acted like a normal person, Fan Jian felt a little angry on his face and said in a deep voice: "Is your name Duan Lingtian? Since you know that the two outer disciples who were with me at the beginning were Huo Xin and Yuan Wu, you must have

You have been taught a lesson by them..."

"However, one code equals another. They are teaching you to settle the debt between you. The debt you owe me, Fan Jian, has not been settled yet!"

Fan Jian looked at Duan Lingtian, his eyes gradually becoming cold.

"Well, I was indeed taught a lesson by them."
